March 2021 TTC Bus!

[gracie2307]

Hey everyone! Thought I would start a March 2021 TTC bus. I'm TTC for first baby, cycle #8, CD12 hopping off from Feb 2021 bus. Wishing lots of baby dust and BFPs to all! Xx

@Ttc2020no2 Haha it’s always the way! I had my first baby in April 2019 so he’s nearly 2 now. I came off the pill in June and was pregnant by July! We DTD quite a bit but I was so relaxed about it all and I guess we were living quite a carefree life, out all the time, holidays etc etc so I was just more relaxed in general and then bam! I get a BFP.

This time, we’ve only been trying since the beginning of January.. I’ve definitely stressed more but I don’t know why! Lol. I think life is just busier so I’m always trying to ‘plan’ sex and that’s not exactly romantic and my partner hates planned sex 🤣 xx

Congratulations @Ttc2020no2! Amazing news 🙌xxx

Hello ladies 😀 sorry I wasn't online very much yesterday. I'm cd15 today and....I got my Peak!!! This is the earliest it has ever been for me, I normally ovulate anywhere between cd17-cd20 and I've really been trying this month with healthy eating, trying to relax etc and only taking my seven seas as I have been worried that I ovulate too late and end up mis timing our BD. So I feel like a winner today haha 😄 I know a couple of you mentioned about who ovulates later in their cycles and I definitely do usually. My cycles range from cd30-35/6. Feeling so positive I hope this is our month 🙏

Hope you are all ok? Much love and baby dust to you all! 💛 xxx

Oh and it's so funny i nearly ran out of my CB digital OPK sticks i was on the last two and prayed this morning my peak would arrive soon so I didn't have to buy a new box yet haha 🤣 xx

Hi ladies, just wondering if anyone has had a similar situation to me? As I posted earlier in this feed, I am currently CD12 and had peck LH yesterday so suspected ovulation today. Since this afternoon, I have had pain in my lower abdomen, almost like a bruised sensation and it's on both sides. I thought it could be ovulation but I can't say I've ever had pain like this before. It's very uncomfortable. Any ideas?

Hurray @gracie2307! Hopefully this will lead to a nice BFP this month!

Thank you @dunkedbiscuit 😊 it's the little wins in TTC if you told me 5 years ago that I would get excited about peeing on a stick and get a positive ovulation result i would have been like "Okaaaay" 🤣 how are you doing? Xx

Hey @Catmumsoph92 yes I do sometimes get bad ovulation pain feels like proper cramping some cycles! Some cycles I don't get it quite so bad. Don't know whether it's all progesterone related? Hope that helps? Xx

@gracie2307 thank you! I've never experienced it before so I was a bit thrown.

@gracie2307 I know, it would all of sounded pretty strange to us! Back then I assumed all you had to do was stop trying not to get preggers!

I’m alright thanks, had a couple of down days when AF arrived which coincided with another friend announcing their pregnancy but AF has cleared off now so ready to get cracking on a new month!

@leigha22 hey! I came of the pill in January had my withdrawal bleed then my first cycle was 32 days, I'm currently 7dpo, good luck hope you get a bfp soon x

@Catmumsoph92
Sounds like a bit of ovulation pain?
Are you in bad pain?

Tbh, I stopped paying too much attention to this stuff as I realised that 9/10 times is probably indigestion.

A weird thing happened to me last cycle where my cervix moved low & got knocked by DH - very unsexy. It was actually bruised & sore for days after ...

I got a tiny bit of brown blood when I wiped this morning, but nothing since. Still got mild cramps. About 7pm whilst cooking I all of a sudden came over dizzy and feeling sick and hot.

Hoping today was implantation, tho probably kidding myself. I sometimes spot 1 or 2 days before AF

I asked my partner of my forehead looked red or I felt hot, he said no but that my cheeks looked a bit red - they have for a few days which along with a few raised kinda spotty bits I thought was a symptom

My boobs are still aching on and off. But if today was implantation does that mean earlier symptoms were psychosomatic...

@amyannx oooo fingers crossed for you. When will you test? Are you tracking ovulation with OPKs? X

@leigha22 thank you! Will start testing this Friday so that if af shows from next week I'm not disappointed, I used the one step opk and got a positive on day 17 but day 18 it was negative so must have a short surge x

Can I jump on this bus too please? 😂 ttc no 3, will be 5th pregnancy hopefully. Mc in 2009, DD 2010, DS 2012, Mc feb 11th this year so just getting back to it, think I’m CD 21, if I go by CD1 being 11th, have no idea what I’m doing or how long my cycle is 🤷🏼‍♀️. Hoping for the best. Think I’ll test 11th March , don’t really expect it this month.
Good luck ladies, can’t wait to see all the BFP’s🤞🤞🤞😊

@JeanieJ yeah it was pretty bad. Enough for me to be on the sofa with a hot water bottle which is very unlike me at this stage of my cycle. Who knows! Now I'm in the dreaded TWW and will probably symptom spot every day! 😆

Oh, I've never heard of that before. That's so strange!

Hi Ladies,

Do you mind if I join this thread please? 🙂

Currently TTC for our first, came off the pill last May. I fell pregnant last month (cycle #9) but it turned out to be a chemical, was gutted! Currently CD12 (I think 🤷🏻‍♀️) and usually ovulate around day 17/18 so fingers crossed hope we can fall this month. The only thing I did differently in the month I fell was I had started taking VitalDHA & Coq10. I don’t know if that made a difference or if it was just our month.

Using ovulation tests and temping again along constantly googling and searching mums etc 🤓

Good luck to you all xx

Haha I know mine was the same. We had actually decided maybe we aren't meant to have one together and I had just put my deposit down for ivf too and then it happened...I mean we really weren't trying lol just crazy how that happens. Xxxx

[quote Lizbb]@Ttc2020no2 congrats hun. Didnyiubdo anything different after the mc. Like vitamins, exercise etc and was your period after the mc light or heavy? Thanks[/quote]
Honestly hun I did nothing differently. My next period was heavy if I remember but my body went straight back to a normal cycle. My last mc was July so its now March so it's taken a good 6 more months. However after an mc you can be more fertile.
I'm not sure how old you are but I simply took pregnancare preconception tablet once a day and that's it. I was trying to keep my weight down so smaller portions but I promise I did nothing special. Have you had your amh checked? Mine was 8.49 which is high for 42 years so I knew I stood a good chance xxx

Oh and another time hun is regular sex lol honestly my oh was constant so I think that helped xxx

Just a thought ladies if you are over 35, have you considered using Zita West preconceptions vitamins? Xx

@Mum2Girls19

9 dpo Can we line spot ladies?? I took this this morning and dismissed it looked again and I swear I can see a shadow..

Have you tested again
