TTC First Baby Massive Thread.

[Delilah7]

Hope all my lovely ladies have found this group can't tag you all as there is too many!! ❤️

Can I ask you girls shock OPK’s do you use?

Sorry meant what not shock!! Sorry I’m sooo tired after watching my Anthony Joshua lastnight 🤣

@GDOG35 can't believe you got to see it! 😍 I use amazon cheapies which haven't been amazing in getting my proper dark positive!

Delilah was so good but bloody cold, atmosphere was amazing! Just asking, I don’t do my temperature do thinking if I should do that but I don’t know 🤔🤔🤔🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

@Squiff70 delighted for you! ❤️

@GDOG35 I bet!! how cool. I've debated doing my temperature but I think I'll probably wait a couple more months before I start doing that xx

Delilah7 I use clear blue digital but so expensive hmmmm

@GDOG35 that's why I don't wanna buy them hhaha

Hi all!

I’m 25
Happily engaged (hopefully fitting in a baby before our wedding in 2020)
2nd month of trying.

Opk started showing 2nd faint like yesterday and today, clearblue says no LH surge yet... having sex pretty much every day/every 2nd so here’s hoping soon!

Welcome @mrsmcntobe flippin heck every day is good going! Feel awful about my dire 3 times this cycle and I'm cd15!! Lol. Though DH has been away so I'll let myself off.

@GDOG35 I use Amazon cheapies and clearblue. Haven't decided which to stick with, the cheapies are fine but CBD are so much more convenient!

@keltibug do you know how many days post ovulation you are? Sometimes if you ovulate later, it takes longer for the BFP to show xx

Thanks so much everyone. I'm in shock at the mo but also very happy. I guess the line will get darker in a few days. It's not sinking in yet and I don't FEEL pregant yet either but reality will almost certainly give me a huge kick up the bum very soon.

Wishing you ladies every success, and very soon. Please stay in touch as I will!

@Crossfitgirl don’t be too hard on yourself! Other half has a high sex drive and I’ve been happy to go along with it since we’ve been trying although today I need a little rest.. a bit sore down there lol! X

MrsMcNtobe I felt so sore the last week too I was throbbing for a day or 2 🙈 my husband had a ohhh sex drive I say ‘had’ he’s finding it exhausting some days & plus working etc it can get tiring. think next cycle may do it every other want his swimmers to be fresh & ready!! 🤣

@Crossfitgirl I have no idea when I ovulate. Even though I track on the flo app it's never accurate. I've also tried tracking with ovulation tests but have found that some months I don't ovulate at all! However my period is always on time

@GDOG35 I think we’ll be taking a break tonight!! I’m just scared to miss my chance that’s all. I’m stressing wayyyyy too much and I know that’s the worst thing I can do!

so other half asked me this morning if I wanted to 'make love' my noonie literally became niagra falls as soon as he said that 😂😂😂 he hasn't said that in a while

MrsMcNtobe I think stress plays a huge part. I know what you mean about missing chances. When my husband says he’s tired I get sooooo annoyed at him & angry as I’m like but we have to do it etc & I need to stop being like that. Every month I say I’m not going to be less stressed because even my husband says I need to relax, but then my mind goes into body ovulation overload & I become obsessed. This is why I need to find something to relax. I’m going to book in for acupuncture next week & see if that may help me.

@GDOG35 let me know how acupuncture goes i’d definitely be up for giving it a try. I cut down on smoking but when I’m stressed I end up having a couple and I know I shouldn’t but it’s the only thing that relaxes me a bit

@Squiff70 !!! Congratulations 💕💕💕💕 xxx

@Delilah7 😂😂 glad you've had your morning ride!!

So AF is due today/tomorrow Ish as I'm CD31. Feels like AF is coming (it did all day yesterday) but I've just been super wet. Don't feel pregnant at all, just waiting for AF now. Not sure what I want to do next cycle, I'm impatient anyway, but this is really slowly breaking me 😩

@cupcakesandglitter about time! hadn't had sex since Monday!! Boring man. Hopefully it doesn't come Hun.

@GDOG35 @MrsMcNtobe what do you do the acupuncture for if you don't mind me asking, interests me a lot and wonder if it'll help for me! x

Stress is definitely a factor, I am finding it really hard to relax though, we have issues with our gas fire I need to sort, house move stuff to sort, solicitors to chase, just got to fork out 4 new car tyres, it's never ending!
How do you guys all relax?

I find it hard to switch my mind off and not think about the things i can't control.

In other news, just got my positive OPK! Yay! I have told DH and suggested we have sex today and tomorrow morning before he goes away.

He didnt jump for joy but he also didn't say no....

🤞🤞🤞

@Delilah helps your mind & body work with each other if that makes sense. Makes you more balanced. I’m going to give it ago I need something. I have massages but they make me relaxed for an hour when I’m there but afterward I’m back to craziness. With acupuncture think you need a few session to really get into it.

Arghhhh 10dpo and just got a first response out of the cupboard, put it back, got it out again and put it back!!
Until today I have been so good at not wanting to test at all - where does the self control go!!?! 🙈

@Squiff70 such good news!! congratulations!! 🎉🥂🎉

@MrsC87 glad you're feeling better hun x

@GDOG35 I use ICs and clearblue! Just to be ultra sure!! I have crappy irregular cycles though so no idea when ov will be each month. Opks and temping are amazing or I would be completely lost.

@Delilah7 😂😂

@Crossfitgirl yay for the positive opk!!! And just in time!!

@Crossfitgirl yay!!!! Mine never got to that so I obviously missed mine! Get on it girl!

@GDOG35 okay thank you! :)

@FlapJackered I'm losing my marbles.

Really feeling abit deflated. Know I'm out this month

@Crossfitgirl yay for your OPK and mainly for DH being cooperative. As for relaxing, I don't know if being an adult comes with true relaxing. There's TV and maybe doing some art or something, but my mind is still trying to resolve everything at all times, especially if I can't control it. But it all depends on the personally type. Many intuitive people are the natural planners, their mind never relaxes. But then there are people who live in the moment, so they worry less, plan less, go with the flow more. I need something that makes me laugh to stop thinking about things. Or chocolate.
