Looking for TTC Buddy. 'March 21'🥰

[Lizbb]

Hi guys just a bit about me. I'm 36, have 2 kids at 3 & 5. Came off the pill in Nov and fell pregnant in Dec but MC in jan. Not sure my system was ready at that time. 🤷‍♀️. I'm ready to try again. Have my ovulation set for March 7. My first month TTC after a MC in Jan. I'm CD2 and will keep testing till I hit that peak 🙏. Welcome journey stories till we get that bfp. 😊

@BettySuz hey hun congrats. Not sure u were on our group havent heard much from you 😃. Did you test in the tww. Was it the cramping that made you test or missed af

Heya all.

I'm jumping on this thread 🥰.

I'm 27, on cycle 2 and TTC baby number 1. I came off the pill December 2020, first period on 29th January which lasted a week and my cycle was 35 days. Got my period on 5th March.

I have stage 1 endometriosis on my bowel and bladder (thankfully they didn't find it on my ovaries) however this was in April 2018.

I have clear blue ovulation kits and I tested on 11th and 12th last month and got the smiley the static face quite soon, so DTD bit of course not successful.

Unsure when to test as my periods haven't regulated since coming off the pill.

Baby dust to all ❤️

@ShonC hiya and welcome. Like me after my mc in jan and being that I had never tracked before lol. I just started testing from day 1 after my af with a cheap stick and than from day 5 (recommended start date if your cycle is 28 days) with easy@home. Went that hot dark would test 2 times a day and also with cb. Hit peak with both on same day. It may help to also bbt. Just learnt that as well. 😂. Did the doc recommend anything to help u?

@Lizbb

Thank you so much! I've felt nothing but support and warm welcomes on this forum. It's so refreshing.

I'm so sorry to hear about your MC. Isn't it clever that there are things out there to help us conceive? Science amazes me. Thank you for sharing your experience with me too. I've read up on BBT and will definitely look into that if the OPKS don't help.

She just advised me to take folic acid and to have sex every 2-3 days but I work shifts so can be difficult! Also when I had a chat with the nurse she wasn't helpful and said I can "google" stuff rather than her send out a leaflet.. naughty really as google can be so bad for your mental health when obsessing over getting pregnant.

How long have you been TTC? xx

@ShonC really naughty her indeed. It's her job to help so bad. Google has helped but cos there is so much info it's so much to take in and sometimes understand and everyone's situation is different. I have 2 kids already 3 and 5. Didnt even try for them. Came of pill in nov fell pregnant straight away but mc in jan. Started reading up on mc and before u know started tracking 😂😂. Never dont this before. So this is first time tracking. My partner works nights so its not always easy dtd as hes tired. Fingers cross for all of us. Same taking vit d, c, folic and cq 10. 2🙏🙏🙏

@Lizbb yeah I got the impression during the call that she just wanted to get me off of the phone 😞.

Yeah I do thank god for google but it's also so hard not to let yourself get to wrapped up into finding things that you're specifically looking for like symptom spotting!

Oh wow that's awesome with your two! I'm sorry that you experienced a MC. Tracking seems to be the way forward and think it's great to do just to get to know your body more too. Ahh I guess we have the same issue in that sense then!

I think I've finished or am finishing my period today. So looking forward to ovulating 🤪!! Xx

Evening guys. How is everyone. Official 1dpo. I think cos this is my first time tracking I'm not dreading the tww. Knowing me I might even forget until a few months l8r and no af. 😂. Hows everyone else during their tww. Any stories, symptoms, differences. Love to hear.

Morning ladies. How we doing. I'm officially in my TTW. I'm 2DPO.
Has anyone felt or experienced this: I had pressured feeling(not to painful) on my left side yesterday. The pain was for about 30m or so. Not sure I had it before or maybe I did but didnt take notice lol. Is it normal. Thanks 🥰

Morning @Lizbb and everyone! Hi catching up after being off here for a few days.

Been an eventful few days here as got a letter end of last week saying I needed a colposcopy, which was quite scary. Fortunately I managed to get an early appointment yesterday and the doctor thinks I’m fine, though he’s done some tests to double check.

So unless we’ve managed to conceive already this month I’m probably out until next month while I wait for the test results. That said, I have no idea what’s going on with my cycles this month so who knows?! I had a clear blue static smiley on cd6, which I thought was way too early so switched to the test holder from last month and carried on testing, and then got a static smiley again on cd8, accompanied by ewcm. Temp went from 36.4 to 36.1 on Monday, then rose to 36.5 yesterday, which I thought was a good sign, but it’s 36.4 today so I’ve got no idea what’s going on! Think my hormones are all messed up this cycle!

@ottie27 hey hun. Hope everything goes well for u. Such a nightmare when our body changes and it's not in our control. Anyway I hope the results come back ok and if it's not this month I pray it's for next month. Keep us posted 🙏🤞❤

@Lizbb heya Liz! How're you feeling now? Hopefully these 2 weeks go fast for you! Xx

@ottie27 I hope your results are good 🤞🏼❤️xx

@ShonC hey hun and morning all. Yea I'm ok. I'm 4dpo. A day after O had pressure pain on my left side but that's gone now. Still have creamy like CM. Feel a bit warm inside could be cos I spend half the day yesterday cleaning the house 🤣. I've never paid attention to my body so just trying to pay more focus now but not stressing to be honest so busy with other stuff. Lol. Starting to take pomegranate and pineapple and brazillian nut heard thay helps implantation. Will see how it goes. How you babe and update? 😊

@here hey ladies hows it going. Any updates, symptoms, changes. I'm 4dpo all looking good so far. Baby dust to everyone 🥰🥰

Hey all! Today is O day for me yay! Got my peak yesterday and my temp went up this morning I think I may have actually ovulated last night as woke up with a sharp pain.

I took soya isoflavones this month to try bring ovulation forward. I wasn't ovulating until day 21 of a 28/9 day cycle. Managed to get it forward to day 16 so I'm really happy about that!

@Fifi1086 congrats babe 1 step closer to that bfp. At least you know have more time for egg to develop. Fingers cross. Keep us updated

@Lizbb heya! Ahhh not too long - keep strong and keep going. Ohh I had no idea that there was stuff that helped with implantation. What vitamins are you currently taking? I'm just taking folic acid and cutting down on alcohol and caffeine. I had a shorter period of 5 days and waiting to get my peak fertility so started testing on OPKS. Fingers crossed it'll be around a week today as my last cycle was 35 days long but came off the pill in December so it may just be regulating. Fingers crossed for you xxx

@Fifi1086 woooo soo glad you've got it today! Fingers crossed for you xxx

@ShonC has hun. Weird had a few twinges in my tummy today and creamy cm. Maybe it's just my insides cleaning themselves out lol. I was also on the pill came of in nov and fell pregnant in dec. Lol hopefully ur af and system goes back to normal quick. When I had mc i didnt get much advice other than u can try again after ur first period so did a lot of online research maybe too much 😀😂. When I came off the pill I dont think my body was ready so now I take folic acid( if ur bmi is over 30 take 2 pills), vit d, b complex and cq-10. Gonna also take Brazilian nuts, pomegranate, pineapple, spinach as a smoothie as all helps implementation. I feel like a doc with all the research I've done. Everything is in Gods hands. Amen 🙏🙏. Fingers and everything crossed for u as well. Xxx

@Lizbb hopefully this is good news for you 🤞🏼🤞🏼 I have everything crossed. You have done such amazing research! I'm gonna take some of your advice. Take care of yourself ❤️

Sorry if I missed anyone. Hey guys how are we doing. What stages are you at at the moment. I'm currently 7dpo. Omg I'm I horny or what. Since yesterday I've been seeing loads. (Read it's the progesterone level) felt tired and feverish last few days. I pray that this is all our month. Amen. And for next month for those who had there af this month. 🙏🙏

@Lizbb hello lovely! Ooh 7dpo exciting, when is AF due ? Baby dust for you ✨

I have just had my peak on OPK today! Nice strong line and having ovulation cramps in my left side this month! DTD yesterday and also squeezed in another today at lunch time! Don't feel positive this month, you know when you just have that feeling? but keeping everything crossed ☺️ x

@Lizbb hi lovely, today is officially ovulation day for me 🥳 hoping to DTD later on but we've managed a couple of times during my fertile window so fingers crossed for a successful month!

@Genevive123 looks like we're on the same cycle! I've had loads of cramping on my left side too, lots of EWCM and my OPKs are now at the lowest since I started testing this month so I'm definitely through ovulation. Now to start the TWW.....

@Genevive123 hey hun stay positive and hopeful. App says I'm due on 22/23. Last mc in jan before than was on the pill so just used thiankonth to track things. Babe had the same left side pain a day after ovulation. Never experience it before or maybe just didnt pay attention lol. That's a good sign remain faithful. 🙏

@Bee44 everything cross for you babe xx
