Hi ladies 💕

13dpo today and af is imminent as temp dropped to cover line plus a bfn. So who's joining me?
TTC #1
This will be cycle 13 since mmc (Feb 19) but been TTC since June 2018 so a horribly momentous month for me.

Bought some vitamins recommended by it starts with the egg for this month and also male conception tablets for DH. So we shall see 🤞🏼

Lots of luck and baby dust to everyone 🍀🌈💕

@LittleRa I came off end of jan, had a withdrawal bleed within a couple of days and then no AF til April 6th (conveniently my birthday haha)! I think that wasn't quite normal though. Mid April was my first time ovulating but I think my body was quite slow!

LittleRa · 10/05/2020 15:12

@rathernotshare Arggh I hope I get AF this month, I just don’t know though.

Ltay2 · 10/05/2020 15:19

I thought the days in TWW went slowly, here I am on CD4 in the supposedly nice, no worries phase - AF finished but not yet in FW, however I am now willing time to go faster yet again so we can get to FW and get going on another cycle 😂 will I ever be at peace?! 🙄

Runnergirl1 · 10/05/2020 16:36

@ltay2 - I am with you there. Currently cd5 and can’t wait to get going haha

rathernotshare · 10/05/2020 16:50

@LittleRa I think most people get AF right away, but it's not unusual to not! It is frustrating though. I spent my whole life thinking it would only take me one time unprotected to get pregnant. My brothers are 30 & 23 and I'm 26, my parents are grandchildless and are now mad at themselves for drilling it into our heads to be so careful 😂

MrsLBear · 10/05/2020 17:20

Hi ladies.
And hi to all the new comers!! Sorry I've been completely off Mumsnet.
How's everything going for everyone?
I'm on cd7 and will start opks probably cd10/12. Can't decide though. Don't want to waste them.

I love the dinner idea @minster2012! I am going to do this for sure. I think it's needed during these times regardless of TTC. How are you doing?

Minster2012 · 10/05/2020 19:34

@Ltay2 & @Runnergirl1 I am similar to you, CD7 here & so in the “waiting phase” but my DS has thrown a right curveball in ...@MrsLBear I’m ok but here goes a new “winging it” chapter for me... I know a lot of ladies here are hoping to be first time mums...I’m hoping to experience pregnancy & things like making mum friends from that etc because a full term pregnancy would be my first but we have a 21 month old DS who yesterday decided he wanted to try toilet training so we have been starting that today kind of “off the hoof!”

So that’s me staying in the house (I am highly self isolating anyway but we have 2 active dogs) so they won’t be getting much attention as DH goes back to work tomorrow & im on house arrest trying to toilet train DS with zero experience 😂😂& going into fertile week.

Hmmmmm wish me luck

Charlotte2020 · 10/05/2020 19:46

Hi all, new to Mumsnet and ttc #1. Just had my Mirena Coil out, so I'm guessing June will be my first proper month of trying. Also trying to keep calm, not obsess or get my hopes up too high!

slimshadyscousin · 10/05/2020 20:23

Hopping on the June bus! TTC no1, AF showed up yesterday in full swing 😫 only our first month of properly trying so can’t complain.

slimshadyscousin · 10/05/2020 20:24

@Charlotte2020 ditto being new to Mumsnet and trying not to obsess. Failing miserably on that front 😂

KateColx · 10/05/2020 20:25

Hi guys!! Few days of AF not showing up on time messed me up a bit, but it's made an appearance this afternoon with a vengeance so I'm fully on the June bus 🙋🏼‍♀️

This will be my first month tracking ovulation with CB tests, I've sort of winged it the first two cycles so I'm excited to know a bit more.

What's everyone's recommendations for pre pregnancy vitamins etc? X

Charlotte2020 · 10/05/2020 20:43

@KateColx I'm just taking the seven seas cod liver oil w/multivitamins capsules I already take for the time being. Also going to wing it for a while before using CB tests.its still early days!

@slimshadyscousin so easy to get wound up from all the information. Must stop googling! Grin

KateColx · 10/05/2020 20:56

@Charlotte2020 I'll have a look into those now. Yeah I think a couple of months figuring it out is good! I've learnt a lot since joining Mumsnet 😂 stuff that I probably should have known at 30 years old! But also trying not to get too caught up in millions of tests and charts 🤣🤞🏻

Minster2012 · 10/05/2020 21:01

@KateColx that’s the same bits as me, seven seas trying for a baby & cod liver oil here too

Ltay2 · 11/05/2020 13:12

Sorry just catching up!

@KateColx I have been taking Folic Acid, Zita West VitalDHA, COQ10 and Vitamin D.

Ltay2 · 11/05/2020 16:03

How's everyone doing? What CD are you all on now? I am CD5 so still a few more days to go before FW!

LittleRa · 11/05/2020 16:29

CD 12 here, but that’s following a withdrawal bleed/first bleed off the pill so don’t know if it counts this month. Also I did used to get a bleed on the pill and tracked it and my cycle was 35-36 days so at CD 12 currently but app predicting ovulation around CD 21... All this could (hopefully) change once I have a period though so we’ll see. I’m still DTD every other day just in case!

CMM20 · 11/05/2020 16:31

Doing well thanks! On CD 6 so pretty close to you @Ltay2 Feeling a little on edge after all of the latest updates from the government. Don't know what I was expecting but have gone from being very optimistic to a bit more apprehensive. How is everyone else doing/ feeling about the latest updates?

Charlotte2020 · 11/05/2020 16:41

@CMM20 I feel more nervous about reduced face-to-face time and changes to services I think. Bit early for me to me worrying about that but I'd love those to go back to normal.

Pixielou16 · 11/05/2020 17:01

Hello, I'm joining as AF slapped me full on in the face today. I'm 28, DH 32, TTC #1, cycle 4, fed up already. I'm taking more vitamins and supplements than I care to admit to. Going to review this since it is getting bloody expensive and the Amazon man probably hates me for all the journeys he's having to take to my house.

SaraVB · 11/05/2020 18:20

@Pixielou16 me too, AF showed up yesterday. Only cycle 2 for me but already finding it frustrating. I'm not the most patient person!

Oh what vitamins are you taking? I'm only taking one prenatal multivitamin as my doctor recommended taking something with folic acid in it. Maybe you can find something that's a combo of a few of the ones you're taking now?

Ltay2 · 11/05/2020 18:43

@LittleRa Hopefully your cycle settles down for you soon! But definitely will be covered by DTD every other day!

@CMM20 I can understand that, I know a lot of people have found it very confusing. I am lucky in that nothing will change for me following the latest update, I am still working from home and my OH is still going to work as he has been doing all along. Very confusing about the going outside stuff though I'll admit.

@Pixielou16 I am taking so many supplements/vitamins too! Folic Acid, DHA, Vitamin D and COQ10. Folic Acid and VitD are once a day, DHA twice a day and COQ10 3 times a day so feel like I'm rattling 🤣 I am sure my amazon delivery driver hates me too 🙈

bubblybon2020 · 11/05/2020 19:01

Hi 👋
Hope it's okay for me to join, I suffered a natural miscarriage on the 9th April at 8 + 4 weeks. Surprisingly my cycle seems the same, Currently on CD 9. Fingers crossed for everyone on this thread 🤞🏻🤞🏻 x

Pixielou16 · 11/05/2020 19:02

Folic acid, Vitamin D, CoQ10, Vitamin C, Nacetylcysteine, L'arginine, L'carnitine, Omega 3, Magnesium, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Agnus Vastus, Myo-inositol, Evening Primrose Oil til ovulation then swap to Vitamin E... Quite sick of it all tbh!

Runnergirl1 · 11/05/2020 19:06

@bubblybon2020 sorry to hear this

Currently on cd6, according to the apps due to ovulate cd18/19. Will start the ovulation testing and DTD this weekend I think x
