TTC October anyone want to join 😊

[Rightnow1245]

So I’m currently on day cycle 12 not due ovulation yet but I should be in a few days! Trying for my second is anyone else wants to join this tread to talk about TTC come on over.
I have been tracking my cycles for a few months now but we are only trying from this month.
Please feel free to share your TTC story xx

@Decgal88 sorry to hear AF arrived! :( are you sure it's AF?

Welcome @SwimSwim! TWW really does make you go crazy! I'm 10dpo and just waiting for it to be over!!

Natural to be symptom spotting @SenoraSurf! I think I started it as soon as 1dpo, questioning everything.

@Rightnow1245 glad you started this thread too! Thanks 😬

@sav89 Hope you do get a lovely belated birthday present! 🤞🏽😊

Stupidly took another hpt today because cramps had increased (bfn of course)! Saturday can't come quick enough!! Going to try and hopefully wait till Saturday now when AF is due.

Quick question, have a cervical screening test tomorrow. Do you guys know if it matters if I'm TTC? Will mention it to the nurse before the appointment. I mentioned it to the receptionist when I booked it but she didn't really acknowledge it 🙄

TTC baby no 3, after losing my lil girl at only 5 days old, period was due on 14th Oct and I’m currently 4 nearly 5 days late, done 5 pregnancy test since my period due date and all been negative, am I testing too early or should I see a doctor for a blood test

Thank you @Abzi91 im pretty sure as its been constant all day just hope it doesnt mess my next cycle up i guess i will ovulate early im going to start using opk’s can anyone recommend good ones? I dont think it matters your trying to concieve hun hope it goes well

@Lovelysam1 sorry to hear about loosing your little girl i would book a drs appt if your that many days late and get a blood test x

@Lovelysam1 sorry to hear about your loss, I would book a doctors appointment just to find out what's going on. X

@Abzi91 I'm not sure but I'm due a test as well and wondering the same!

Thanks will ring doctors in the morning for an appointment but can nurse do a blood test instead of the doctor

Wow that’s impressive SwimSwim I’m aiming for 2 years but don’t know how that will work being pregnant 😬 my DS is only 14months so that means Tandom feeding if I fall pregnant soon! Hoping I can do that 🤞🏽
Sorry to hear of your loss lovelysam I also think you should book a doctors appointment.
Sorry to hear that’s decgal is it a heavy bleed tho?

Yeah definitely mention it to the nurse that you are TTC because I’m not sure it’s good to do if you’re pregnant! Maybe rebook it if you’re worried about it? I probably would do it the week leading up to ovulation just incase??

abz I forgot to tag you in my last post 🙈

Will ring them in morning but can a nurse do a blood test instead of a doctor

lovelysam At my Doctors surgery the nurse can but I think it depends on the surgery

Ok thanks

Oh really sorry to hear that @Decgal88, hopefully November will be your month!🤞🏽❤️

Ah okay, thanks @Rightnow1245! I need to go to the GP anyway, so will mention it to the nurse and see what she says! Just so difficult because I have to find time to take off from work as well

@EvieV28 think @Rightnow has the best advice! After AF/before ovulation.

Yes it bet it’s hard enough to get time off anyway! Just go and see what they say abz

I'm 7dpo today & only really started thinking about it yesterday. Hopefully I can forget about it again for a few more days! I've had a rough few days - been feeling really low & withdrawn. Think I need some R&R and hopefully some really good news with a bfp next week!

No symptoms at all, and no tests in the house. AF is due next sat but if I get brown spotting a few days before then I'll know I'm out.

Fx for you all x

@Lovelysam1 so sorry to hear about your loss.

@abzi91 I hope Saturday comes quickly for you!

@Rightnow1245 I never planned this long to be honest but think we'll be finishing in the next month or 2, as DD is starting to go down wide awake and self settling, so think we're coming to a natural end. Hopefully tandem feeding will work out great for you.

Couldn’t get through to the doctors this morning and still no period, I’m 5 days late today, don’t wanna take a test in case it’s negative as took a Superdrug yesterday and it was negative

@lovelysam1 I've heard for some people it can take them being a week late before they get a BFP. A blood test is definitely the best way but maybe an early response test would be more sensitive? You've probably tried that though, sorry I can't be more helpful!

Thank you @Abzi91 really hoping it is too!💕@Rightnow1245 it is a heavy bleed actually! heavier than the last couple of months since i came off the implant in July so maybe tginking the pregnacare tablets played a part in that?xx

@lovelysam1 That's so confusing, I'm keeping everything crossed for you. So sorry for your loss

I'm so sorry for your loss @Lovelysam1 are you able to visit the doctors in the morning to see if you can get an urgent appointment for the same day? That's what I had to do today to see the GP, as they're no help on the phone!

@EvieV28 in response to your previous post, I went to my appointment and the nurse said it was still okay to do my smear test.

She also said to take some folic acid to help whilst TTC, so I was looking at Pregnacare but it has so many mixed reviews.. @Decgal88 are you going to stop taking them?

@Abzi91 yes i stopped taking them yesterday I am only taking a tablet that contains vit d and folic acid now. Hooe your appt went well

I will go there after I dropped my son off at school in morning, I haven’t tried the first Response pregnancy test, but tried clear blue digital and Superdrug homebrand test and both came out negative

Thanks for letting me know! I better phone and book mine, keep forgetting.
I got folic acid from Holland and Barrett.
