TTC Baby number 1 - Looking for buddies

Hewie30 · 20/08/2019 13:30

Hi Ladies 🙋,

I'm new to the forum so thought I'd look for some TTC buddies.
I'm 30 and TTC baby number 1, I came off the pill beginning of May and had a withdrawal bleed a few days later then got my first AF 4 weeks after that. Last month I sadly had a chemical it was gutting seeing the faint line go but I guess it wasn't my time!
AF arrived on time Sunday so looks like my cycle ranges from 34-35 days.
I'm currently taking pregnacare and using the Ovia app for ovulation, I'm thinking if I don't concieve by month 6 I'll try ovulation sticks. Onward to month 4 I go 🤣

Lunch update from me girls. Still no af although cramping returned. No sign of blood apart from that little spot this morning, so I am now ordering some pg tests in case this is implantation and I ovulated late. Fingers crossed but not building my hopes up as such x

@Katie1109 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Gigi318 · 17/09/2019 13:14

@flossy12 say you read that X person quit smoking and their skin is glowing so you're gonna try do the same 😏🤣🤷‍♀️ I've just had mine now, delicious!!!

@Katie1109 at least she is at bay for now babe. Yay. Let us know if anything changes. Will the tests come tomorrow??

flossy12 · 17/09/2019 13:21

@Gigi318 haha yeah I'm just gunna stay I'm doing stoptober early 😆😅 haven't smoked since July anyway

Katie1109 · 17/09/2019 13:26

@Gigi318 yes they will arrive tomorrow. If no af till then I will save my FMU tomorrow morning if I remember lol x feeling some mild cramping and twinges here and there, but nothing really significant x
Thanks @flossy12 :)

Gigi318 · 17/09/2019 14:17

@flossy12 that's fantastic - well done you. Hope you're not finding it too hard!

@Katie1109 exciting! Can't wait for them to arrive. You can do this. I already know on Friday I'm going to be a nervous wreck ahead of testing on Saturday. I'm having lots of cramping and twinges too, which makes me think I am more like 11dpo today 😬

Katie1109 · 17/09/2019 16:24

Some brown spotting just appeared, quite watery not sure whether that is of any relevance? Lol x if this is my af on it’s way the mc has completely changed things, never had any kind of spotting, definitely not brown!

flossy12 · 17/09/2019 16:24

@Gigi318 hasn't bothered me at all as I only did it now and again socially, but my sister is a bad influence 😅

flossy12 · 17/09/2019 16:26

We were looking at baby stuff (as I always do) and shesaid to me, it's all very cute but I don't see why your looking at that stuff, if you had a baby in your tummy I'd be buying you all the cute stuff! 😄 made laugh I was just like 'ahh one day' 🤣

Gigi318 · 17/09/2019 16:34

@Katie1109 I believe brown means its old blood, rather than fresh, so may have taken a while to make its way out. Sorry if gross. Hehe! IB is said to be pinkish or brown 🤞🏻 and light!

@flossy12 I'm the same, but haven't smoked socially in perhaps 2 years - mainly for ageing reasons haha! Hehehehe so cute!!! At least you can go back and buy bits now 🙊🥰

Katie1109 · 17/09/2019 16:37

OMG @Gigi318 does that mean it may actually be the IB? Lol i don’t know what to think anymore. I’ll just have to be patient...although it’s not my strong suit. Trying really hard not to get my hopes up. No cramps atm, just very mild dull feeling down there x ahhhh going crazy lol

Gigi318 · 17/09/2019 16:45

@Katie1109 it's so hard not to over analyse isn't it! I keep looking into things then trying to shake it off. It could be. Is it still really light. Roll on the tests arriving. Will you do it Thursday morning? X

flossy12 · 17/09/2019 16:48

@Gigi318 OH says we should tell her tonight due to her working away for 2 months now! 🤣 god I'm gunna cry I just know it xx

Nicecupofcoco · 17/09/2019 17:06

@Hewie30 I absolutely see a little faint line! Oh my goodness, I have a feeling this could be your month! Yay!!
Test again in a day or two and update us! I'll keep fingers crossed.

I can't keep up with this thread, so much going on! 🙈😂
I keep scrolling looking for bfps though! Smile xx

Nicecupofcoco · 17/09/2019 17:09

@Katie1109 I'm keeping fingers crossed for you that it's not af! Xx

Nicecupofcoco · 17/09/2019 17:13

@Makeafamily19 sorry about af!
Great that your feeling positive going into next cycle.
A Christmas announcement would be fantastic for you!
Fingers and toes crossed xx

Hewie30 · 17/09/2019 17:30

Wowza I missed out on a bit while being at work didn't I 😂😂. It's been a hectic day to say the least!!
@flossy12 How was today did you manage to get away with it? 😂. You going to tell her tonight? Awwwh please let us know how it goes!! 😍😍. I haven't got any frers only got cheapies so will see how I get on with these but I have been warned they sometimes don't show positive until your late!

@gigi318 How you getting on hun? So I thought AF was here but went to the loo and had creamy cm on my knickers, hoping that means AF won't come!! A lady thinks I ovulated on the 19th so hoping she's right!

@katie1109 Oh my god have you have implantation bleeding! How frigging exciting!! This could be it for you hun 😍😍😍😍😍

@makeafamily19 I'm sorry to hear that hun, that's so gutting!! It's horrible when you got so many symptoms and then AF arrives, the body is cruel when it does that 😔. You've got is for support

@nicecupofcoco Haha!! Yeah there's a few of us now which is amazing 😍. Do you think?! I'm not sure, I'm trying to be positive but not getting my hopes up until I see a proper line!

@flossy12 yes, yes - tell her! Well, if you're ready. How bloody gorgeous 💙💖 so emotional!

@Nicecupofcoco yay, you're back. How are you chick? Lols, yes quite active aren't we 😂🙈

@Hewie30 I'm doing well babe, no really symptoms today bar cramping. But it's very mild and has been on and off yesterday and today! I did just try to check my cervix though, but I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing 😂🙈 ooohhh fingers crossed that's a good sign! How are you feeling? The 19th - it's the 17th today???

Nicecupofcoco · 17/09/2019 17:42

@Hewie30 absolutely! I don't want to get your hopes up too much, just incase, but that was how my bfp started! Eeeek! Xx

Katie1109 · 17/09/2019 17:46

@Hewie30 I’ve got no idea lol x it’s brownish discharge visible when wiping, doesn’t necessarily come out if you know what I mean lol tmi I know x

22Ash22 · 17/09/2019 17:49

Hi everyone,
I came off the pill week before last, TTC but may wait another month until after my first AF but i do have the app downloaded to track everything and know when I'm ovulating. Im beyond excited! It'll be nice to join and see everyone progress.

Hewie30 · 17/09/2019 18:07

@Gigi318 That sounds positive hun, hopefully your bodies gearing up for a little bean 😍😍. HAHA! What did you feel? 😂😂😂. Sorry babe I meant CD19 (Cycle day). But she wasn't sure why my LH has risen again.

@nicecupofcoco Was it! That makes me excited 🤪. Was it really that faint that it was more noticeable by convert?

@Katie1109 Haha yeah I know what you mean 😂😂. Brown on wiping can definitely be implantation! What Dpo are you?

Gigi318 · 17/09/2019 18:09

@Hewie30 @Nicecupofcoco eeeeeekkkkkk this is so exciting. I have a feeling it's your month too. I really do. Are you still testing tomorrow?

@22Ash22 hello, hello and welcome! How exciting!! Yes wait for your AF and then track as thats your CD1 and it all starts from there! Good luck 💫

Gigi318 · 17/09/2019 18:12

@Hewie30 Oh I hope so. A lovely little sticky poppy seed 💖 eeek!!! Well, it was high and squishy before my bath, and then I did it again to check as I was unsure if I did it right and it was high and sort of squishy. So bloody goodness knows 🤣 I think I shouldn't add any more to the confusion haha! Oh yes, I think you did too. Not last week!!!! Cannot wait for (more of) your tests!!!!

Nicecupofcoco · 17/09/2019 18:26

@Hewie30 yeah I literally couldn't see it, unless I was stood outside tilting the test, and then I was like, 'is it there? I don't know!'
Aswell as the other signs you've had, the cm, and did you say positive opk too?
Hmmm, sounds promising to me!
@Gigi318 I know, how fabulous would it be!
We can't wait for your tests either? Is it Saturday test day? Roll on the weekend! Xx
