[KernowBee]

Welcome to all of you who join or are reading and hoping too.

Kicking things off positively. A new year means a fresh start. For everyone on their TTC journey, be it the first month you're trying, or 3+ years. It's so hard not to let those BFN's wear on you after time. Share your stories, frustrations, questions, tips and advice.

Let's start 2019's TTC journey together.

Baby dust to you all.
We've got this.

Well AF truly came today at 15dpo! I wonder why I had that little but of spotting at 11dpo which stopped that day? I’m going to have a few wines this weekend to take my mind off of ttc and then onto cycle 2.

Hi @peachlass I know it can take a few months for cycles to return to normal after being on the pill. This might be the case for you. Did you by any chance use an OPK to show that you did in fact ovulate?

Hi @blueowlstar I’ve not used OPK yet. Not sure where to even start with that! Knowing my luck now that I’ve used an expensive test, AF will come with a vengeance tomorrow 😂. Think I’m going to try temp monitoring next cycle (whenever that will begin).

@peachlass this was my first time TTC with my other two they just happened so I thought as I’d just come off the pill I would use an ovulation test. I knew I’d roughly ovulate around 12-14 days after AF so I started testing around then and then got a positive test on CD14 so I knew I must have ovulated. It def helped me to know what was going on with my body. I’ve heard temping is good but I would have no clue how to do that.

AF cramping like mad! Couldn’t make it up!

Well completely late to the party but I've finally got my positive on a clear blue opk!! We've bd for the last 5 days and will be for the next 2, so here's to 🤞🏻🤞🏻. X

@PeachLass I'm the exact same body as you. Technically 2 days late now but only came off the pill 14th Dec. I've had my withdrawal bleed and a period and should of been due on Monday. I have had 3 babies before and I 'feel' pregnant but equally all bfn tests on first response and clear blue. Putting it down to my hormones trying to settle themselves.

@PeachLass boat. Not body sorry!

Hi I'd like to join if that's okay! Struggling to get all the abbreviations.. however a little about me -

27 years old
TTC #1
Cycle 16
14dpo

Saw the doc a few months ago as it's over a year of trying. Had two blood tests and an ultrasound to confirm there's no issues.

I usually have a 29 day cycle however I'm currently on day 32.. Took two early detection tests. The first 4 days before I was due, and the other 1 day before I was due. Both BFN. I'm trying to wait it out to see if AF comes as I have had a 32 day cycle once before... it's so hard waiting!

Have had the craziest symptoms - cramping, headaches and one night I had the worst lower abdomen/kidney pain. And watery discharge, is this a thin? No spotting though. But I'm expecting a BFN as I guess the frer are usually reliable?

Nice to read everyone's stories and not feeling alone in all this!

Hi all! First time posting!
Wondering if I can also join in?
Been ttc for 5 months, although have 2DD already and did not ttc. So wondering why so difficult for this one.

I’m 30 years old

CD 13- using clear blue OPK no smiley face today but the two lines are nearly close in colour. Could I be close to ovulating?

@proudmummy88. You may well have the same body too 😂😂. I’m hoping I’ve niw had a “proper cycle” this month. I caved and bought some OPKs for this month. Sure that’ll increase the stress levels no end.
