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!

You need to just take each day at a time. Don't over think things or if you're anything like me, I start to panic, feel overwhelmed and then convinced I can't do it. Be kind to yourself!

Can anyone offer advice at all on the following. My period seemed normal last month. I was (according to an app) fertile the first week of October. Today I bled and I thought it was my period. Was a bit surprised as it is 4 days early. Anyway, the bleeding has stopped. I’ve got slight cramps on my left ovary. Not sure if it’s a period or if I’m being optimistic for implantation bleed! X

@Han1213 that does sound promising!! 🤞
@Wearenotyourkind you are totally right! I will try to take your advice. I’m a bit of a worrier to say the least.

Only time will tell! X

@Wearenotyourkind when are you due on?
@Positivity2019 you okay??

I had a good weekend away bit hot food poisoning from oysters!! Been sick since sunday, today better than yesterday! Hoping it hasn't effed up my chances.

No symptoms that I can tell, I mean I'm cramping now but I dont know if that's left over stomach cramps from the sickness lol. Due on Saturday, going Italy on sunday so a nice distraction if it's not my month!!

Hope all are ok xx

Just entering my fertile window, so not due on til early next month. Sorry to hear about the food poisoning @Ellsbells112! Not v romantic! Hope you have a good time in Italy!

Any update @Han1213 ?
@Ellsbells112 you are getting about! 😁
Good luck with DTD @Wearenotyourkind
Had a much better day today on the nausea/fatigue front so hoping things are improving. One of my pj bottoms felt too tight and uncomfortable the other night so changed to some roomier ones 🙈 and when I did my usual am I ok in my pants to my oh this morning to which he usually says ‘you’re fine’ he said ‘oh yeah I see something’! Argh! Need to start being strategic about what I’m wearing!

So exciting though @Wakemeupwithcoffee! 🤰🏻

@Wearenotyourkind I really feel for you finding out two of your friends are expecting. It’s such a loaded thing isn’t it, both being so happy for people you care about and equally gutted and devastated as well. Take it easy I have faith your time will come.

Not so good about the food poisoning @Ellsbells112 hopefully your on the mend. I am also due on Saturday so it’s an exciting day for both of us. I’m doing good, just home today after a long weekend to Fort William. It was a great break. However today I am having the exact same symptoms that you are describing @Han1213!! Mild cramping and very bright pink blood but not a lot, just on the tissue when I wipe. I have never had that in any of my cycles so not sure if it’s anything or AF preparing. I also noticed that my temperature is up a bit than normal. It dropped a tiny amount yesterday and this morning but it’s still very high. Could be the drop to my period. Who knows but trying to stay positive, I’d just love to be pregnant by Xmas.
Hope your all doing good!!

One of them had a coil fitted and wasn't TTC!!!!

Hey guys hope you're all well? I wanted to see if anyone had opinions on this.
I ovulated 14/15dpo and on tuesday which would have been 10dpo when I wiped there was like creamy just a tiny bit tinged pink cm, then when I wiped again after that I had like a streak of browny white cm. Thats it nothing else, I was a bit crampy that day and I got a headache. Today been bit more crampy and I'm due on Saturday...do you think this is hopeful? I dont know whether it was like left over from last month or something but the timing of it was kind of impeccable lol but I've felt what I think is my cervix and it feels hard so I'm a bit bloody baffled at what's going on 🧐

Sounds hopeful! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for you!

Sounds hopeful!! Also waiting to hear from @Han1213 ! Keep us updated both!
I’ve had a couple of good days in terms of nausea/fatigue so I’m wondering if I’m turning a corner. I was in hospital on a drip at this point last pregnancy! The big thing now is keeping the bump under wraps (well not a bump but thickening waist!). I was feeling really paranoid yesterday but today wore something which is much more floaty around the stomach and I don’t think anyone would have a clue in that! So need to think about what I’m wearing from now on. Can’t get excited til I’ve had the scan.

@wakemeupwithcoffee ohh how exciting! Once you have your scan will you then tell people?

@Wearenotyourkind I dont know I'm doubtful because my cervix is hard and it looked like the stuff I got at the end of period last month so I really dont know. If I'm not preggo I'm just gonna be so bloody deflated it's really getting me down!

Good luck @Ellsbells112
No luck here! Didn’t bleed any more on Sunday or Monday then period started on Tuesday! Not my month x

@han1213 ahh its bloody crap isnt it I'm sorry hun hopefully next month! Honestly I'm not hopeful myself I've already told my partner when I'm next fertile lol to get ready! X

I’m driving myself mad! Thinking of deleting all apps and just going back to lots of sex just for enjoyment!

I know its crazy! I think I'm out I just feel like my period is gonna come 🤷‍♀️ been crampy 😒

Aw guys I’m so sorry 😞

@Wakemeupwithcoffee dont be sorry lol I mean I'm not out yet but I just feel crampy and not getting my Hope's up! Lol but jesus if I'm not preggo by the end of the year so help me!!! Lol this is difficult stuff, never had to try before!

I’ve got a heavy achey feeling in my uterus could it be the start of a miscarriage? I’ve not had one before.

@Wakemeupwithcoffee aw ☹️ I really hope not. Sending love and keeping everything crossed.

@wakemeupwithcoffee no fingers crossed! It's probably just your womb stretching some more as you go along xx

I’m out unfortunately, my period started on Tuesday a full four days early. @Ellsbells112 absolutely agree with how deflating it all is. It honestly feels like it’s never going to happen. I mean business this month, I’ve bough a ton of ovulation sticks, preseed and aim to follow SMEP to the letter.
@Wakemeupwithcoffee I hope all is well with how you have been feeling.
Sorry to hear about AF @Han1213 having a few months of sex just for fun might be just the thing. I’ve thought the same thing at times and its definitely something I’m baring in mind for the future.
@Ellsbells112 I hope your doing fine as well and AF stays away.

@positivity2019 I know what you mean. I'll be going the full hog myself this next month if af turns up how I think it will. I've been cramping all day, yesterday too. That bit of spotting on Tuesday must have been a bloody cruel joke urgh! Negative pregnancy tests huff. I thought my period would come today though, the worst thing is I saw the bloody egg on the scan and we literally had sex every single day for 6 days around that day so what more does my body want! Sorry bit of a venting there. I'll bet she will come knocking tomorrow!

Sorry yours turned up 🥺❤ whens your fertile week?
