Successful/happy TTC stories?

[SprinklingBabyDust]

Currently on cycle 3, TTC for baby number 1.

I’m quite young (under 25) and reasonably healthy, no conditions to note. Same with DP but he is over 25 but still under 30.

I think I went into this believing we could get it first month and even second but since it hasn’t been then I’ve felt so down and just assumed it means it’ll never happen or take ages to happen!

DP reminded me not to be so extreme and that it could be this month or the next even. I was taking a prenatal vitamin that delayed my cycles so that didn’t help as in the past 2 cycles my period was quite late. I’ve stopped taking that now and only take folic acid

Really trying to relax and think “it’ll happen when it happens” but feel like everyone is currently announcing pregnancies and having babies? Which just makes me feel shit as it’s what I want so bad!

Entering the TWW now which is daunting as the past 2 have been hard purely as I’m not busy and can’t keep myself busy! There’s nothing to do

So please, share your positive/successful TTC stories?

Really want some positivity to keep me going, so please save comments like “well it could take you a while” because it might not take us a while if we’re lucky!

Just wanting some positivity and also real ness, did you get to month 3/4 and think when will this happen?! And it did soon after?

anyone ?

When I was 19 I was told I probably had PCOS, so when we started TTC at age 30 after years of being on pill/implant, I was absolutely convinced it would take ages and that we might need help - which feels ridiculous now as I got my BFP on our 2nd cycle... currently 4+4 so early days but feeling positive! DP keeps teasing me saying "remember you kept saying it would take ages!"

I decided to really throw myself (and him) into the 2nd cycle. I used clearblue advanced digital, supplemented by cheap OPK sticks in evening, conceive plus lube, and got him on ashwaghanda tablets - they help with sperms count and volume and definitely improved his semen volume and sex drive.
I think a lot of it is down to luck too.

GL!

By the time I turned 25 I’d had 4 mc’s. I then had early stage cancer aged 25. The surgery caused an infection that went right up into my reproductive system. I was told that my chance of conceiving was slim to none and I’d probably need help.
Fast forward 4 years and I fell pregnant on my second cycle. Had a mc then fell pregnant on the next cycle again but again, had a mc. Or so I thought. Started feeling pretty ill and did a opk to see if it was ovulation hormones messing with me after the recent mc. Had 4 days of full positive opk’s so did a pregnancy test and it was positive. I was petrified. Consultant brought me in the next day (consultant care because of my complications) and did a scan and there she was. My little pod. It was her twin I’d lost and somehow pod had hung in there. Got almost full term too.
Pod is now 8 (going on 18 🙄) 😊

So first twice were accidental wanted but we weren't actively TTC 3rd time had a CP on 3rd cycle so I thought that was it it would now take ages but got pregnant on 5th cycle! Last time (4th) I got pregnant on our first cycle TTC! Good luck xx
