Hey ladies,

Posted on a few threads but think it's about the time I might know what I'm sorta on about! Ha!

Looking for some TTC Buddies I can what's app :-)

A bit about me, I'm 28.. 29 in April.. my husband is a year younger than me. We've been married just over a year and together for 9 years this July.

I came off the pill Cerelle 24th November after years of the pill then implant and then the pill again. Never had periods on any. Just a few withdrawals when I missed a few pills.

Anyway! Been actively TTC since my withdrawal bleed 25-29th November.

Finally after a December of no Flo she's arrived today. So finally I can accurately start trying to track on Ovia! GrinGrin

What's your story?

Hi @Geauxtigers good luck for this cycle! Very jealous that youve never used hormonal contraceptives, kinda wishing i never had either. And also one thing ive learned is there is no such thing a tmi on here haha

professorastrocat · 24/01/2020 16:17

Hi @Geauxtigers good luck with this next cycle

RoseA89 · 24/01/2020 16:31

Hi everyone, can I join? Me and DP were TTC for a few months. However he said he wants to stop for the time being due to other commitments. Recently, my breasts have been so painful, I’ve been having really vivid dreams and I’m exhausted all the time. Took a cheap pregnancy test today and not sure what it means. Any comments would be so helpful, feeling really alone and unsure x

Hatepickinganame · 24/01/2020 17:13

@RoseA89 i can only see one line on that test, is there a second line in real life? I can never see faint ones in pictures sorry! All the symptoms of pms mimic early pregnancy ones from what ive experienced. Maybe try another test in a few days? Everyone on here seems to really rate frers

littletandme · 24/01/2020 17:34

Those who had ovulation pains, what do they feel like? I had a sharp pain on my right hand side this afternoon and have felt like I've got a stitch but lower down since. Would add up with my positive opk last night and it's now negative today.

Hatepickinganame · 24/01/2020 18:06

@littletandme that sounds ov pain to me, i never noticed it before and im unsure if what i felt monday was ov pain or not 😂 but sounds a lot like what others describe it as

RoseA89 · 24/01/2020 18:06

@Hatepickinganame yes but I’m not sure if it’s evap or not. Have attached another pic, any thoughts? X

littletandme · 24/01/2020 18:14

@RoseA89 I can see the faintest of lines but I'm not sure it has any colour to it. Did you do it first thing with FMU?

littletandme · 24/01/2020 18:16

@Hatepickinganame I thought so, I've never had it before either but probably haven't been ovulating when on the implant. I haven't had any EWCM this cycle but I didn't get much the month we conceived DD so I don't think everyone gets it or that it's needed to conceive either.

Anon87 · 24/01/2020 18:17

@littletandme I had positive ovulation test yesterday morning, lowered throught the day and negative today.
Had cramps for about 3 days and today Ive had a weird twitchy nudgey spasm tingle to the right side.
No pain, just strange lol, I'm hoping this matches up to ovulation too.

littletandme · 24/01/2020 18:23

@Anon87 oooh exciting! Hopefully we are both 1dpo tomorrow. Just as well because I've got an event on Friday 7th that involves prosecco so I'd better test that morning!

professorastrocat · 24/01/2020 18:27

@RoseA89 how far off your next period are you?

@littletandme I had very painful ovulation last month which I didn't think I'd had before but perhaps I do I just don't normally think about it. It was later than I thought I has ovulated aswell - really sharp stabbing on left side.

Hatepickinganame · 24/01/2020 18:32

@littletandme i google too much and everyone says different things lol but no i think you can get pregnant without it, i have never noticed it before in my life and ive had 3 kids 😂 i now have some odd cramping, i checked my app and i had no symptoms this time last month 🙄

littletandme · 24/01/2020 18:34

@professorastrocat yeah I thought that when you're TTC you symptom spot everything so it could just be trapped wind Grin

professorastrocat · 24/01/2020 18:38

@littletandme probably 🙄 🤣

RoseA89 · 24/01/2020 18:46

@littletandme yeah was FMU, but like you, I’m not sure if there is colour. Looks like a little bit of colour but not sure! X

@professorastrocat I’m unsure! I think either 2-5 days off my period x

professorastrocat · 24/01/2020 19:06

@RoseA89 ah waiting is so hard. How are you feeling about things?

RoseA89 · 24/01/2020 20:18

@professorastrocat I actually took the test to prove to myself I wasn’t, so feeling very overwhelmed. DP and I did TTC but he then told me he wants to hold off a bit, so I’ve been worried ever since. Have very sore breasts, more so than the usual period pains and when I told him he said this happens every month! Don’t want to tell him anything, feel very alone and trying to act normal! Thanks for asking, means a lot xx

Hatepickinganame · 24/01/2020 20:33

@RoseA89 definitely retest in a few days then, so you know one way or another. Hope you get the result that you want x

RoseA89 · 24/01/2020 21:03

@Hatepickinganame thank you, I will. I would love a baby but after DP changed his mind about TTC, feeling very nervous x

professorastrocat · 24/01/2020 21:13

@RoseA89 everyone's entitled to change their mind about plans of course but it's not like you've done this on your own behind his back iyswim! It will all be fine whatever happens; whether they're perfectly or imperfectly timed babies.

RoseA89 · 24/01/2020 21:22

@professorastrocat Yeah I totally agree, and he told me this after what we thought was my fertile period. Not seeing the point in that! You're right, going to try and stop stressing and just see what happens.

How are you feeling? x

MrsTwentySeven · 24/01/2020 22:59

@RoseA89 sorry I can’t see anything :( But like you said, try not to stress or worry about this. Just wait it out and remind him that everything happens for a reason!

MrsTwentySeven · 24/01/2020 23:02

@Geauxtigers Welcome - sounds good! And yep no TMI on here
Gosh that reminds me I’m not the fittest person around and really wanted a healthy BMI before TTC but life 🤷🏾‍♀️ I guess all I can hope to do is start exercising and eating right from today regardless of AF showing up!

littletandme · 24/01/2020 23:16

@MrsTwentySeven me too, I'm almost as heavy as I was just 3 months after DD over 2 years ago 🙈 always said I'd lose that baby weight before getting pregnant again but here we are, TTC!
