Happy New TTC Bus - Jan 2021 - it's going to be a corker!

[BubsNumber2inTheMaking]

Thought I'd kick this off...

CD 7 for me following 2nd mc 🤦🏼‍♀️ Ready to kick the new year off with a bang (not literally, sorry husband), and get a blimin bun in the oven already!
Come on ladies, let's get each other through this. BFP's coming our way soon I just know it 😘💪🙌xx

@Tara1711 I was on microlight pill with was a 21 day pill with a 7 day break. In that break I'd get my 'period' or withdrawal bleed as such. I took the last pill on the 17th of December and had the bleed as normal on the 21st of December. I was due to start the pill back on the 24th but didn't.

I took the first 2 days of my pill on the 30th and 31st of December as we weren't sure whether to start trying straight after Xmas or not but haven't taken it since. I think it would be too early for implantation? I don't have any period symptoms my boobs usually throw nearly a cup size bigger just before I start my 7 day break on the pill and I get awful cramps the day before. Dunno what's going on!

@Rmd123 oh I’m not sure! 🤞 it’s positive stuff going on!! It’s the waiting around and guessing what’s going on with your body horrible?! I’d like to have my own personal doctor who could check all my odd symptoms and tell me what’s going on 🤣

@Tara1711 I know I wish my DH was a doctor so I could get him to check everything out! I have a feeling it's some sort of withdrawal bleed, I think my body is like 'why the hell aren't you taking the pill?!'

My OPKS were high for 3 days and I had full on ovulation symptoms so I'm hoping there could still be a chance!!

How are You getting on? Any more signs of AF?

@Tara1711 last month, following cm, I did have more painful/sore boobs than usual and for the entire TWW. No other issues with cycle/OV. Maybe a slightly heavier AF too when it came...

@RAA852021 I’m due 17/18th but 4dpo as my cycle is quite short. I’ve just stopped telling OH when I OV now so that he just does it when I say...I really don’t think he’s noticed that for 2 weeks I’m not interested and another week I am or applied any pattern to it - he thinks I’m just more ‘chilled’

@Rmd123 it took me about 6 weeks coming off the pill until I had a proper withdrawal bleed and until then I was spotting on and off. Then I was another 25 days before my first AF. I wasn’t able to pick up OV during that first 6 weeks it wasn’t until after withdrawal- did you test to confirm your OV 3/4 days ago?

Did anyone get pain on left or right side around 4/5dpo ?

@SophieMorton hi! I did OPKS on the first second and third which were all flashing smiley faces meaning high fertility. I also had ovulation pains and EWCM. I'm sure this could be another withdrawal bleed if so will just have to try again next month.

@SophieMorton maybe it's just an odd month for me then! I had a chemical last month so thinking that might have disrupted my normal pms symptoms and that's why ive got sore boobs! Who knows, just a guessing game at the moment 😂

@Rmd123 if you ovulated though then you still have a chance...we’ll all be going mad this time next week 😂

@Iloveoreos tbh I get all sorts of pains/niggles/cramps and other symptoms that I’ve now come to ignore. At first I was like these must be OV symptoms and then implantation symptoms and pregnancy symptoms...then I escalated to eptopic symptoms and now I’m just like I’m probably dehydrated, stressed or digesting food 😂😂. If it’s worrying you, painful and abnormal, seek doctors help...if not, then it could be a symptom of something, my best advice is track it and don’t keep googling...although the tww is hell and I’ll be back on here next week trying to guess my symptoms 😂

@Tara1711 it is...and the more you learn the worse of a game it becomes!!

@SophieMorton that's so true!! I miss the days where I just went about my life without second guessing every little thing that my body is doing 🙄😂

@Leonberger I currently have a female yeah. You can't really get enough of them, had a boy but he died a few years ago. All that fur helps cheer you up when you're down!

How long have you been trying?

@Tara1711 today I could smell an antibiotic smell...like how your wee smells after you’ve had a course?? Anyway I was about to google ‘is smelling antibiotic smell a sign of pregnancy’ and I was like get a grip!! As if google is going to return an answer saying yes! Haha

Bet you google it now...🙈😂

@SophieMorton 😂😂 I find whatever I google I always manage to find something that tells me it is a symptom of pregnancy, they might well be but they haven't been for me in the last 14 months of trying! 😂

I did google it...

@IndigoJam we are on about cycle 9 and AF has just showed up.

We have a boy at the moment who is 11 months and spends a lot of time throwing himself around and getting into trouble, keeps me busy while I’m thinking about this all the time
I’ve never met another besides online, I seem to be the only one with Leo’s for miles!
At least if I do get pregnant I’ve had some time to get on top of the training before I get massive I suppose. I got the puppy to try and stop the broodiness but it hasn’t worked

@IndigoJam if my AF turns for sure I’m hitting subscribe and save on Amazon next time!

@Tara1711 I miss those care free days! I've had to stop from Googling any symptoms e.g. random cramp on one side etc. Symptoms of AF & PG are the same I would have thought.

I did another test today CD20 BFN. No symptoms of pregnancy or my period. Feel absolutely nothing at all 🤷‍♀️

@RAA852021 I don't know my cycle so it's a game of chance for me. So if the mood takes me then my DH & I shall BD 😁. I know me so I have a tendency of being a bit obsessive when I want something. My DH is relaxed about kids....if it happens then great & if not then we move on & possibly look at other options 🤷🏽‍♀️. Throughout my 20s I had that exact attitude then the pandemic happened which delayed our wedding & our plans to TTC plus I'm 33 this month. Something inside me switched & I've gone from being as relaxed about it as my DH to really wanting our children (2 max). However I have to remind myself to not to stress & see what this year brings (hopefully not any heartaches). To relax I pamper myself, play games, read or ask DH for a massage. What do you enjoy doing for yourself?

@Lottiebugz22 🫂

@FluffyLittleDragon yes me too! Although yesterday I did google if being cold is a symptom of pregnancy... I'm laughing at myself today because it's winter and I'm sat at my desk all day which is probably why I'm cold! 😂 it's so nice being able to speak to people on here who are doing the same!

I did a bad thing ast night when I was looking at the John Lewis sale. I seen some cute baby things and ordered them. I told myself it was to give to someone else but I know the truth.

Someone needs to take my debit card from me.

I am beginning to wonder if I ovulated this month. I had ewcm at different points in my cycle (the only thing I'm going off) and my body has been so quiet compared to niggles and twinges that I usually get each month. The only thing I've had is boob tenderness on a couple of days. I don't even feel pms or my period coming which is due January 12th. I didn't want to do OPKs etc as I didn't want to become obsessed with it. I have a 2 year old dd already but she was a surprise baby as we were not trying. I don't know anything much apart from looking for ewcm.

@Tara1711 🤣 that's made me laugh! I WFH & my office is set up where the laundry dries so my DH has opened the window & my hands are frozen. It's a miracle I can type!! 🥶😆. I'm tempted to look into fluffy typing gloves so I don't lose my hands 🥶. I'm a winter baby & I dislike the winter!!

I'd love a surprise child & be in that situation where I'm not TTC #1 & it appears 🧞‍♀️. I've told my DH, if we can't have children for whatever reason then I'll adopt a 🐈‍⬛. I didn't give him time to disagree 😊😈😉.

@IndigoJam I nearly bought a park the other day as it was such a good deal. I don’t know how I’d hide that one haha

*pram!
