Anyone starting their TTC journey in July 2019?

[TurquoiseKiss]

Anyone in the same boat? I'm 33 and from next week DH and I will be actively trying for #1. I'm excited, nervous, trying to be chill about it all but also imagining myself with a bump celebrating Xmas this year

I started taking SS 'trying for a baby' supplements 4 weeks ago, not sure if it was their effects or not but this month my cycle was 20 days. Otherwise i'm 27 days always. Anyways, let's see what happens.

Hoping to find some pals in a similar place at the moment on here!

@wearenotyourkind I would go by the EWCM if I were you, natures way 😊 I'm yet to get a positive or EWCM yet, hopefully soon!

Yep, good idea!

Hi hi, so I got EWCM yesterday, none today but I’ve entered my fertile period from today apparently. Gonna keep DTD every other day until Saturday then go every day from sat until next weds. Hopefully that’ll cover things. Really hoping for it to be my month this month. Sending out positive vibes to you all,

Fingers crossed @Positivity2019 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hi gang. How is everyone? I am 7+1 and struggling today with feeling wiped out. Had to give in this afternoon and plonk myself on the sofa and watch tv with the kids! Everyone coughing in my house so we are all a bit under the weather. I think I need to accept I need to plan on some resting time on the weekend to rejuvenate for the week! @TurquoiseKiss did you tell your parents and how did that go?

@Wakemeupwithcoffee definitely sounds like you need to try and start resting more at weekends! Any sickness yet?

Not much to report here - apps predict AF is due on Tuesday, so will see if she turns up. I'm not one for testing early as I really don't get it - for me it would just increase the chances of disappointment, whereas I just wait for AF to show to give me the answer. Each to their own though, obviously.

Hope everyone else is okay👌🏻

Also welcome @Charlottethevet

Oh wait, I already did that 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ffs I'm out for this month...literally just finished typing last message, went to the loo and AF has shown her face. 2 days earlier than predicted, so that was a 26 day cycle. ☹️

@Positivity2019 good luck! I think I ovulated yesterday but we DTD every day from Wednesday...I'm hoping that's enough! Fingers crossed...

@Wearenotyourkind I'm sorry ❤❤ at least she came early and not late getting your Hope's up?? Nothing I can say though I know, hope you're ok? X

@Wakemeupwithcoffee yes its going around now the flu season
Take it easy and rest such as you need to during the first trimester! :) xx

@Ellsbells112 thank you...I am eating my way through it! 😂 that was only cycle #2, so will stay positive. Hope all okay with you? Sounds like you're on track with DTD this fertile period!

Hi guys, hope you’re all fine.
@Wakemeupwithcoffee I hope you and your family are feeling a little better. Keep resting.
@Ellsbells112 fingers crossed for you!! TWW can be long but I also find the anticipation exciting and nerve wracking!
@Wearenotyourkind that sucks, its awful when it takes you off guard like that. Take it easy and keep positive for this next cycle.

I ovulate tomorrow apparently and I hope we’ve been DTD enough to cover it. Tried going every other day with a view to going everyday from Saturday until weds to cover my whole peak time and ovulation day and a possible late ovulation. However we didn’t do it Saturday, we both fell asleep. Done it fri Am and sun Am and will go mon, tue, wed so surely we are covering things. Anyway TWW on the horizon and although I find it quite exciting anticipating a BFP I know disappointment is also possible.

Really sorry to hear @Wearenotyourkind 😞 but like you said only second cycle so keep positive! Impressed with the DTD stamina @Positivity2019 and @Ellsbells112 ! Fingers crossed for you guys. I’ve got my booking in appointment this week. Apparently it lasts 1.5 hours - seems like a long time!

How are you doing @Absa ? And welcome to @Charlottethevet

Hi Wakemeupwithcoffee i'm doing OK thanks, i'm 10 weeks + 2 days today, tomorrow is my first midwife appointment. Just wishing for the 12-week scan now to confirm everything is (hopefully) all OK.

My parents were really excited, they've kept their word to not tell anybody else yet.

I'd really love to keep checking in with everybody via this thread, but i'm conscious my input doesn't really belong on the Conception board anymore. So also happy to bow out if people would prefer? I am on a thread on the Pregnancy board but as its still such early days I feel more of a connection with contributors to this thread given we all started on our current TTC journeys around the same time

@TurkquoiseKiss not too much longer until your scan! I like hearing everyone’s good news! X

@TurquoiseKiss seeing as you started the thread, I'd consider letting you stay it's exciting to hear your updates. Good luck for the appt!

I hear what you’re saying @TurquoiseKiss but I’m hoping we can stay 😜 I feel utterly dreadful with nausea and fatigue. One of our kiddos has been pretty ill this week which has involved a lot of worry lack of sleep etc but on the mend now. I’ve been feeling pretty stressed about keeping it quite etc til we know everything ok. I’ve had my scan letter for about a months time. Any sort of bump yet @TurquoiseKiss ?

Hey guys hope everyone is okay?
@TurquoiseKiss @wakemeupwithcoffee
What was you guys first symptoms? I'm getting impatient already and only 4-5dpo knowing that with two previous pregnancies I didnt know till I was 6 weeks lol mehhhh all I've got is sore nipples probably from ovulation! Pray for me ❤ I want to get bfp sooo bad! Going Ireland tomorrow for a hen do and I keep thinking god, I'm.gonna drink loads and I could implant over the weekend 🤦‍♀️ my sis said it doesn't affect until you're 6 weeks gone and attached properly to your blood supply? Still though..
@Positivity2019 how are you doing chick? X

@Ellsbells112 I’m doing good, I’m about 4DPO so at the start of a TWW. However me and my partner have gone away for a long weekend which will be a nice distraction. I always feel pretty positive during the TWW even though it could end in upset. Enjoy your weekend away, I’ll have everything crossed that this your month.

@Wearenotyourkind how you doing after your recent AF?
Good to hear from you @TurquoiseKiss and @Wakemeupwithcoffee and that your doing well

@Ellsbells112 I would enjoy yourself but maybe just don’t go quite as mad as you might normally!

@Positivity2019 I'm doing okay thanks! Although found out today 2 more people I know are pregnant. But I get that that's life. Had a nice girlie weekend away with my bff. Just waiting for my window now. Hope everyone else is okay?

That is hard @Wearenotyourkind fingers crossed it’s your turn soon. I had to have an afternoon nap today and I’m not a napping kind of person and have then been fatigued all pm. I’m starting to panic about coping with a full work day and managing to keep it quiet.
