Hey!

Want to get a group of ladies who are TTC at the same time to have someone to chat to during this journey together. It's a lonely process for me and only
In early stages of trying but would love advice, tips and general chat. This is an open chat and can't wait to chat to you all

Thank you @Bouncytree and @1992EM.
It really does feel very surreal xx

@Dex1521
Enjoy it while you can, I can't wait now for af to come so I can have a cheeky drink!

Originalusername6432762 · 09/11/2020 08:40

@BellaStar2020
From what I've heard it's normal at first to feel like that! Have you told people in real life yet or are you saving it?

apwilso · 09/11/2020 08:49

@BellaStar2020 congrats!!!

@Misty84 welcome to the club! We're all the same.

@Bouncytree yes we are!!!!! Back to the DTD all the time 🤪

@apwilso thank you!

@Originalusername6432762 no i am not going to tell anyone (other than my OH) until after Xmas, around the 12 weeks scan time.

@BellaStar2020
A special Christmas for the three of you 💜

MamaMoonbeam · 09/11/2020 11:17

@BellaStar2020 YAAAYYYYY!!! Congratulations! Flowers

I just realised I'm down to 1 ww with af being due in a week! I am being so strong and not testing (yet)! Swear I have all of the symptoms of pregnancy all at once though. Because, what else could they be? 😅🤦🏻‍♀️

DOB78 · 09/11/2020 11:39

Hi, am I ok to join? I'm probably the oldest one here!!! (42) but the last time I was pregnant was 17 years ago so a lot has changed. I've been with my partner for a year but we're both happy and agreed to TTC. I have implant removed 29.10.20 and AF just arrived so this will be our 1st month of actively trying. I've come here coz I think I doing his head in talking about babies!!! It would be nice to be able to chat to others, I don't wanna stress him out already🙂

Misty84 · 09/11/2020 11:39

@MamaMoonbeam I’m in exactly the same position...1ww and everything is being perceived as a possible symptom!!🙈🙈

Dex1521 · 09/11/2020 12:00

Hi @DOB78 you’re more than welcome to join! Not sure about oldest but I know I’m the youngest at 22 (23 in feb) 😅. You’re lucky with your period returning so soon I was on the implant and had it out last may as it has expired and went onto the mini pill. Came off it on 28th October and had nothing since no withdrawal bleed or period and it’s frying my head 😩 hoping between weeks 2 and 4 of being off it I’ll get something so I can start tracking cycles and know where I’m at TTC.

Good luck with your journey everyone here is lovely and so supportive, keep us posted on your journey x

MamaMoonbeam · 09/11/2020 12:08

Hi @DOB78 , I'm 37 so it's not just spring chickens here 😅😁

@Misty84 ikr! Lol!! But the first response website has told me I can start testing from tomorrow so it would be rude to ignore the advice of some coding 😂

TTC chat!
DOB78 · 09/11/2020 12:24

Hi @dex1521
Id only had the implant in a year so this might be the reason AF came back so quick, I have no idea. Its.nice to have a place to talk we haven't told anyone we're trying so need to.let all the bay talk out somewhere

apwilso · 09/11/2020 12:25

@MamaMoonbeam if that website says tomorrow do it tomorrow ahhahaa

Hi @mamamoonbeam
Sounds like your journey is a positive one! I hope it doesn't take us long I worry we'll run out of time

MamaMoonbeam · 09/11/2020 12:32

@apwilso exactly! Have ICs and FRERs ready to go! Would be rude not to, right? 😂🤣😂

MamaMoonbeam · 09/11/2020 12:34

@DOB78 that's what I worry about too. That and my OH smokes 🙄 this is our first month TTC so will see how it goes. Not holding my breath that we'd be successful first time, but it would be nice 😊

MamaMoonbeam · 09/11/2020 12:35

@apwilso also, OH has been pestering me to test as he is impatient 🙄🤣😂🤣

DOB78 · 09/11/2020 12:48

Mamamoonbeam I've got everything crossed for you

BellaStar2020 · 09/11/2020 13:13

Thank you @MamaMoonbeam.

Test tomorrow!!! Let us know how you get on! X

Originalusername6432762 · 09/11/2020 14:33

@DOB78
Welcome!

AF is here! I've also been getting my gp to change my referral to private so hopefully soon I get a consultation and maybe some answers!

Redred2429 · 09/11/2020 14:43

Hi can I join first month officially trying again we had a miscarriage at the beginning of the year haven't been careful since but this is our first month tracking cycle and officially trying scared and excited 😁

DOB78 · 09/11/2020 15:26

Thanks originalusername.
Its been good to read through the thread and see where everyone is with their journey

Dex1521 · 09/11/2020 16:46

Had quite sore cramps today worst I’ve had for a while but managed not to take any painkillers. Also feeling quite nauseous this evening so hoping these are good signs in the end up

How’s everyone else doing today? 😄

Waiting2BeaMama · 09/11/2020 17:04

@BellaStar2020 congratulations gal!! 💕 amazing news!

@Bouncytree sorry af arrived x There’s nothing to report on my camp 🙄 been having very light spotting for days but still no bfp. Still got cramps and boobs are sooooo sore, but not convinced it’s anything exciting anymore. So sick of waiting 😫 af due on Friday so hopefully know either way soon.

BellaStar2020 · 09/11/2020 17:07

Thank you @Waiting2BeaMama. It still doesn't feel 100% really now. Feel as though I should wait until after af is due before I book in with my dr? I did another first response this afternoon and was also a very clear BFP. Please keep us updated on your journeys xx
