Anyone else fresh off the pill!?

Hi ladies!
As my DH and i habe decided to TTC I took the last pill in my packet on 17th December and had my breakthrough bleed start on the 22nd and end on the 26th. Now the wait begins to see whether my cycle snaps back to normal and of course whether I concieve! I had been on microgynon for circa 3 years.

Is anyone else in a similar position and entering 2019 pill free!? I thought this would be a good place to track and share our experiences as they happen!

Congrats @DaniX91 that’s a relief. Good luck @Abi58 let us know how it goes

DaniX91 · 16/07/2019 17:32

@Sunshine8888 aw thankyou!

whatsthecraic91 · 16/07/2019 17:34

@Abi58 aww I’m sorry you are feeling rough! It will all be worth it tho! Ah great hope your scan goes well that’s so exciting!

I am CD11 so we have been DTD everyday since CD7 and are going to right though my fertile week. I’m not doing OPKs or anything this cycle cos I drove myself mental last month! We are just trying to have fun with it at the minute even tho is cycle 7 I am trying to chill out a bit Confused

@DaniX91 that’s great so happy your scan went well! I’m sure you are relieved after all the pains etc - such reassurance!

@sunshine8888 fingers crossed for us both this cycle 🤞🏼

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 17:56

@DaniX91 so happy for you 💕 definitely a relief ☺️

Mines at 6.45 getting nervous now! I'm 6+3 really hopeful to see a heartbeat 😍

I reckon this will end up being internal

@Sunshine8888 thank you I will ☺️

@whatsthecraic91 thank you so much ☺️ it's the dizziness that's really throwing me I can't concentrate feels like everything is moving and spinning

Fun is definitely the way to go ☺️ it's so easy for planning to take over so it's good you're able to take a step back to just enjoy each other and hopefully make a baby in the process 😍

DaniX91 · 16/07/2019 18:03

@Abi58 thankyou. Ooh I hope u get to see the heartbeat! I'll be thinking of u at 6.45, please update us as soon as u can 😊

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 20:26

@DaniX91 thank you 💕

So the best news we could have hoped for! There is a baby (embryo) and a yolk sac, it's in the right place and we saw the heartbeat!!! 🥰 were so in love already! Measured 6+3 which is what I thought. They actually did a little 10 second video showing the heartbeat flicker that we've now got 😍

All I've managed to stomach was some yoghurt with strawberries in, when we got home I ran upstairs and threw it up 🤢 in the process of my body and muscles tensing I actually pissed myself 😭🙈😂

So oddly I now feel so much better after throwing up and I'm so happy I actually don't care I just pissed myself 😂

Anyone else fresh off the pill!?
Abi58 · 16/07/2019 20:26
  • also just to add

The bottom blob is the yolk sac and the top is our baby blob ☺️🥰 measured 6-7mm 😍🥰

DaniX91 · 16/07/2019 20:28

@Abi58 awww this is brilliant news!! 😍 I've been thinking about u for the past hour wondering when u would post something!
Haha I've just nearly pissed myself reading that😂 x

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 20:33

@DaniX91 thank you we are over the moon!
🥰
They were running late and then I was sick 😂

Glad someone got some giggles from it 😂 gotta laugh, pregnancy is so glamorous! 😂 x

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 20:33

@DaniX91 how are you feeling?

DaniX91 · 16/07/2019 20:38

@Abi58 bless u! Atleast now your mind is put at ease😊 didn't u say your mam had really bad morning sickness?
I'm ok thankyou. I felt a bit alarmed that they couldn't see a fetal pole but the dr spoke to us afterwards and said that's normal at this stage so I really should stop stressing now shouldn't I?! Ha

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 20:53

@DaniX91 yeah ☺️
And yes lol 😂😩 it's like constant nausea and dizziness in one and then the odd vomit 😭

At this stage a day makes a difference and yours was really early so completely normal. The lady didn't think she could see the feral pole in mine at first and didn't sound alarmed so it's just early so don't worry ☺️💕

DaniX91 · 16/07/2019 21:08

@Abi58 I really feel for u, I hope it eases off! 🤞🏼
Yea that's what I'm tellin myself, and it's only 2 weeks today til our next one.
I do feel a bit bad that we're gettin these free scans when other people are havin to pay for them 🙈 x

Abi58 · 16/07/2019 21:12

@DaniX91 thank you 💕

Don't feel bad it's for a reason and just enjoy getting them ☺️

whatsthecraic91 · 16/07/2019 22:20

@Abi58 ah look at your little pickle! Seeing it for the first time must be really something ❤️

So happy for both you ladies 🥰 keep in touch - I love hearing your experiences x

wannabemum38 · 16/07/2019 23:11

Aww how wonderful @Abi58

Sunshine8888 · 18/07/2019 12:47

Update! I think after 45 days of waiting AF has arrived!! First proper one in 15 years. A little bit nervous as to what it’s going to be like but it does tally up with when I think I ovulated (around 1 July) so at least something is happening! 🎉

whatsthecraic91 · 18/07/2019 13:08

@sunshine8888 great news! It means you can start fresh now 🤞🏼

Sunshine8888 · 18/07/2019 13:16

Thank you 😊 I’d be so happy if I could just fall straight back into the 28 day cycles but who knows! I’ll look out for signs of ovulation in 12-14 days time and if none I’ll know I’m in for a long cycle again I guess!

whatsthecraic91 · 27/07/2019 20:11

@DaniX91 @Abi58 @Sunshine8888 @Beddie11

How are you ladies? xx

DaniX91 · 28/07/2019 10:18

@whatsthecraic91 hey 😊 good thanks, how are u getting on? We have our next scan on Tuesday at 7+2 so hopefully it's all good news x

whatsthecraic91 · 28/07/2019 14:22

@DaniX91 I’m in the dreaded TWW! I got negative OPKs all cycle (after saying I wasn’t using them this month 🙈) but I reckon I’m 8DPO, got seriously sore nipples which I’ve never had before so 🤞🏼 definitely not testing until AF is late!

That’s so exciting 😊 how are you feeling xx

DaniX91 · 28/07/2019 17:05

@whatsthecraic91 oooh that's a positive then if it's a new symptom! Yea I'd say wait til AF is due or the day before if u can't wait, 🤞🏼 for u!
I'm excited but so nervous, just hope everything is ok.
I'm feeling ok just tired a lot and still got sore boobs x

whatsthecraic91 · 28/07/2019 18:54

@DaniX91 I know it’s so hard to wait tho 😓 thank you 😊

Yea it’s only natural to be nervous I suppose! Fingers crossed everything is okay for you! Hopefully your symptoms don’t get any worse! xx

DaniX91 · 28/07/2019 21:06

@whatsthecraic91 stay strong! What's your test date?

I'll let u know on Tuesday morning 😊 x
