@SarahMumof1DS I'm moving over from the September TTC thread after my CP. currently in the TWW - good luck to you 🤞🏼

Hello! I'm TTC cycle 2 for #1. Baby dust to us all! 🧚🏼‍♀️

Flittingaboutagain · 05/10/2020 00:51

Hello!

Good luck all. I'm in the 2ww from the September bus. Cycle something bonkers like 23 for number 1, having lost my first pregnancy sadly.

This month I will be back on Glow and give charting another try. Also armed with the vitamins that clearly do naff all! Anyone doing anything different this time?

Hello! Just coming out of my fertile week, ttc baby number one, first cycle. Two week wait time!

Smileandtheworldsmileswithyou · 05/10/2020 04:56

First cycle for us TTC baby number 2, very excited but trying to stay calm...we didn't get the chance to DTD as much as I would have liked this month as a few things got in the way, but there's still a chance. Good luck to everyone.

Marmiteontoast123 · 05/10/2020 06:26

Tww for us too. Cycle #3 ttc #1. Spent the first 2 cycles symptom spotting like mad during tww but trying to be a bit more relaxed this time. 🤞 for all for this month xx

Purpleflowers21 · 05/10/2020 08:21

Hello. TTC cycle number 1, baby number 1fir is so complete newbie here! This is also first cycle off the pill, was originally planning stopping the pill now and waiting for my body to regulate then TTC next year but next years plans changed so decided to TTC straight away! No idea what my cycles will be like but I’m predicted to ovulate on Thursday! Have been dtd every other day since the end of withdrawal bleed and as I should now be in fertile window might go fir everyday now. Got a lovely hotel booked for tonight (total coincidence) so definitely going to make the most of that. Baby dust to you all x

This is my first month of ttc. I am currently in my fertile window. Good luck everyone xx

Theawkwardblonde · 05/10/2020 11:45

@SarahMumof1DS jumped over from the other thread! Hello again and hi everyone.

BrilliantButScary · 05/10/2020 11:49

Hopping on 🤗 hi
Entering cycle 2 TTC #1

I'm using Fitbits calendar and amazon cheapies to track ovulation but still getting mynhead around it all!

I've been taking folic acid (the higher dose because of my weight...) and vitamin D but are there any other supplements people are taking?

Trying4one · 05/10/2020 12:00

Hi I am TTC number 1, 2nd cycle. Currently going mad in my 2ww as I am 8dpo. I think I am getting symptoms but I had what I thought was implantation bleeding last cycle but ended in my AF. So I don't trust the symptoms 🤦🤣

Flittingaboutagain · 05/10/2020 12:38

I take co-q10, zinc, EPO, b complex, vitamin D and folic acid. It obviously didn't hurt as I managed to get pregnant...but making it stick and having healthy genetic viability seem to be two further separate issues which vitamins can also play a role in.

SarahMumof1DS · 05/10/2020 14:56

Hi @Theawkwardblonde 🤗
Not actively trying this month but just seeing how DH feels. Just temping to see when I ov in case he wants to DTD. I have to say I'm so much less stressed this month just for not having to think about tracking everything. This month will be a good test to see how I go forward with TTC.
When is your AF due?

Theawkwardblonde · 05/10/2020 15:12

@SarahMumof1DS I'm in the 'do I track or don't I mindset'. AF not due till end of month so I'm just awaiting ovulation. I'm definitely in the cba to dtd mindset if I'm honest too so may just succumb to a month off. We've both started taking a load of vitamins. This is cycle 13 for us too 😞

adogisforlife91 · 05/10/2020 18:20

Hi - can I join? First cycle TTC ever! I haven't told anyone in real life we are TTC so would be nice to be able to chat about it here. I'm just at the start of TWW, testing around October 17th although will be tempted to test sooner if I think I have any symptoms....

Trying4one · 05/10/2020 18:58

@adogisforlife91 I haven't told anyone either other than 1 friend (who recently had a baby) as I don't need to additional pressure of people asking if I am pregnant yet

millionairesshortbread4 · 05/10/2020 22:30

TWW for me! CD27 with AF due in 3 days. Baby dust to all :)

MrsMDD · 05/10/2020 22:48

Hi ladies can I jump on board. I'm ttc no3. I had a missed misscarriage of twin pregnancy end of June and d & c July 13th. First af arrived on August 11th, then ttc started and I was convinced I was pregnant when I ended up 10 days late with 2 faint positives on Internet cheapies Sad but was not to be and I spotted for 4 days. Was so confused and hopefully it was implantation but it was not. Bought pre seed and clear blue digital ovulation tests as I had been using cheap ones. A few days after spotting I had a huge pain like I would for ovulation so did a clear blue test even though i thought it was way to early in the cycle (took the spotting for a period) and got the full on smiley and same the next day then back to blank so dtd as much as possible while I had the snilwy and afterwards and now on the ttw. If you've read this far then thanks Grin I'm so confused. My boobs are absolutely killing but got a bfn this morning. The smilies were on sept 23rd and 24th so would ovulation have been the 25th? I think that makes me 10dpo today? I'm so hopeful but it was a clear bfn. Good luck ladies and sorry to all who have had losses too xx

Imog · 05/10/2020 23:48

Hey everyone! I'm on cycle 4 since my endometriosis surgery. I'm 8dpo and cd24 this cycle

So far my symptoms -
Dark areola
Bumps on nipples and look darker and bigger
Really sore nipples and breasts😩
Every other month I've been convinced I was pregnant but this month not had as much bd so I'm not sure how likely I am!

Hope everyone gets their babies! Xxx

Plm28 · 06/10/2020 03:57

Can I join? Cycle 3 ttc number 1. Hoping this is my lucky month

Flittingaboutagain · 06/10/2020 08:13

@millionairesshortbread4 we are cycle buddies. Good luck!

@MrsMDD sorry to see what you have been through. 10 dpo many don't see a BFP yet so you still have just as much chance for this month.

Trying4one · 06/10/2020 08:25

I tested yesterday as I couldn't hold of any longer. BFN on 8dpo. Going to test again on 12dpo and if negative I am going to wait and see if AF turns up on 14dpo

millionairesshortbread4 · 06/10/2020 12:21

@Flittingaboutagain haha very good! All the best for this month :)

Caved in and tested this morning with FRER, BFN :( it really is a horrible feeling
