TTC First Baby! Anyone else?!

[Delilah7]

Hi Ladies.

Anyone else on their first cycle and TTCing?! I'm seeing all these beautiful posts about ladies getting pregnant and how they have bonded with people on here soooo, thought I'd make one at the start on my journey!

Hi ladies, sorry I've not been posting. Been a busy couple of days x

Hope you're all ok and keeping your sprits up xx

Wow loads go catch up!!

Sounding positive @Delilah7

I’ve also caved and done 2 tests even tho AF is not due for another 9 days 😂😂 totally kidding myself on! I am 100% positive now that it hasn’t happened this month. I think I’m going to try the OPK’s next cycle and see how that goes!

Absolutely exhausted with all of this now.. working 6 days, studying at night school 2 nights a week, moving house and trying to have a baby all at the one time has not been my brightest idea to date!! 💡 that’s my rant over now lol! Xx

@Amz60 I'm hoping so!
Oh I know the feeling moved in a month ago to new place still doing loads of stuff in the house. So stressful! You're a trooper so keep going xx

Hello Ladies, bad news for me - AF came 2 days early in full force and has knocked be out for 2 days with an awful migraine... nevermind feeling sorry for myself but keep pushing forward - hopefully next month I'll be celebrating a BFP! Lots of love to you all

@PixieLoo it's defo AF? Xx

I've got such bad cramping right now!

So sorry @PixieLoo!! Hopefully it’s your time next month 🤞 xx

Thank you girls - yes @Delilah7 definitely AF 😞

Oh no that's rubbish @PixieLoo :( You and me next month, we can do this!! xxx

I think we all deserve a bit of a rant this week @Amz60 xx

Ladies - I've recently been breaking out so bad especially near my lips. Never ever had it there. Could this be a sign... anyone else had this?

I haven't had that but my skin is definitely looking a little bumpy at the moment 🙈

@byanyothernamerose honestly it's driving me crazy. I've never had any spots near my mouth or anything and it can't be anything disgusting lol xx

Since I have started TTC I have been getting terrible break outs which I never got before however I think it might be from coming off the pill!!

I have been having some strange twinges in my stomach today... barely noticeable but could this be implantation if I am 7dpo? X

@Amz60 could be! Any bleeding? X

Ladies, month 7 of trying... should I be getting worried yet?

Hey @buntingandstarcharts I'll be honest, I'm new to this and I'm in my first month of TTC so I'd be wary of giving you advice, but I would say a trip to see your GP wouldn't be a waste of time? Just to ease your mind If nothing else xxx

Thanks @sachabloom, everyone on here seems to be trying for 1 -3 months!

Hey @buntingandstarcharts yes a whole new world for me, tho I'm in my 40s now so I think I'll be taking a trip down the docs if it doesn't happen this month. I think there's figures somewhere that say 80+% get pregnant in the first year, it's not unusual to take a little while. But it's really hard to wait! Might just be worth a chat with the doc anyway.

@buntingandstarcharts my understanding is that a doctor won't help much until you have been trying for over a year...so if you do go they may just send you away...this happened to my friend, and as a result when my other friend was trying for 6 months with no joy she told the gp that she had been trying for a year even though she hadn't. This isn't the right course of action for everyone ( to tell a little lie), so it is up to you...

I'm sad to say BFN for me :( I can't see anything. 11dpo.

Even introverted it and nothing... :(

@byanyothernamerose @CookieWaffle thanks for your help! Did your friend have anything wrong when she went to the docs at 6 months? X

Aww @Delilah7 :( it's still early I guess anyway, try and take your mind off it for a bit xx

@CookieWaffle :( ruined my bank holiday lol xx

@Delilah7 sorry to hear about BFN keep going hunny!

Hope all is well with everyone, sorry not posting alot these last couple of days been spending time with the husband as it's very rare we get time off together!

On the implant I had periods very regular but since I had it taken out it seems to be off this month. Anyone else had that? I keep putting it down to it being tken out and my body getting used to it not being there again.

Had some signs of AF but nothing yet? Strange!

Hope everyone is enjoying the bank holiday sun as I type this it seems to have gone haha just my luck!
