TTC bubba #1

[Genevive123]

Hi ladies

I'm 23 and my partner (27) and I are TTC baby #1!

It was our first month trying this month and AF is due 2nd/3rd of March, so far just BFN! My cycle is roughly 26/27 days! But didn't expect to get pregnant first cycle so I'm feeling ok 👌🏼

Anyone else TTC baby no 1 with a similar cycle? 🥰 xx

@Neom87 are you gonna take a digital in a few days too? Got everything crossed for you with a sticky baby!

Yes we need some more tests, I know I'm out this cycle, had period cramps today but for sure manifesting next cycle !! ❤️

Aww guys our first BFP❤️✨ @Neom87 congrats xx

@xoJellyBean so exciting right !! X

Yes, I have one more CB early which are 10 mlU ones, and two cheap boots and a cb digital which are all 25mlU so I don't think it will show up on those yet. May leave it a couple.of days and do the second cb early, and them the digital after that. I am supposed to be working, can't concentrate but haven't concentrated all day waiting for amazon man to come! 🙈

@Neom87 awww this is so amazing!😍 did you have many symptoms or did you not even notice ?

Well the beginning to the middle of last week, I had a brief couple of hours of nausea, I also had one day where my body felt like it had been hit by a truck and I was exhausted and had a stuffy nose. But that disappeared, so I thought I could have just been run down. This last couple of days I felt like my boobs had got bigger but didn't know if I was thinking that on too, as it was all I was thinking about 🤣 I have been a bit constipated last couple of days (tmi - sorry!) but I have IBS and that's not usually a problem for me! 🙈 I feel like I have had period type aches in my lower back off and on quite often too. I hope it's not a chemical 😕

Oh and yesterday I was so magnificently bloated i looked about 6 months pregnant!! 🤣 Good job I wear leggings working from home!

@Neom87 omg!!! BFP 🎉 congratulations lovely xxx

@neom87 oh my gosh!!!! Wow!!!!!! Congrats! So so so happy for you! Let's hope this is the start of more rolling in! Week!

I'm crampy today 🙈🤞🏻

@Neom87 I know it's scary regarding chemical and stuff but really hoping everything will be ok for you and you have a happy healthy sticky baby! Have you told your partner ??

@xoJellyBean ahhh when are you testing ??

@Genevive123 only if I miss my period 🤣🙈 how are you feeling?

@xoJellyBean when's that? Haha I'm ok thanks but got my usual monthly period pains coming on strong :( x

@Genevive123 a week today!! 🤞🏻 aww maybe it's implantation tho! X

@Genevive123 I’m feeling sorry for myself today full on PMS in swing haha!
But yes could be implantation?! If only there was something that defined pregnancy/AF symptoms, they are so similar! X

@xoJellyBean @Kty09

For all I know it could be but I doubt it because it's the same sort of pain I get every month the week before :( + I've just come out in my "period spot" I call it 😂 I get the same spot on my cheek every time a week before my period and it's reared it's ugly head lol x

Oh no @Kty09 but remember next cycle is ours !! Your partner is at home when you're ovulating and it's the cycle for me which I was told I would conceive we got this ;) xx

@Genevive123 the same hormone that causes pms also causes pregnancy symptoms though 😜🤞🏻

@xoJellyBean haha thanks for trying to be positive for me :) but I'm so in tune with my periods and cycle I'm 99.9% sure it's not but it's ok :) next cycle it shall be ;)

@Neom87 congratulations!! This is so exciting It makes me so happy that one of us has got a positive test!!

Today is meant to be the start of my fertile week with ovulation on Saturday according to flo app. My partner is also off work from tomorrow until Monday so hoping to get bd daily as we haven't had much time to do it so far this cycle. Fingers crossed we will be seeing some more positive tests soon!

@Genevive123 fair enough, on to next cycle it is😊

@lisamxxx good luck!! Are you temping and/or using OPKs?🤩

@xoJellyBean nope, we decided to take a laidback approach at first and just see what happens. This is just our 2nd cycle trying but I think I might be tempted to start using opk's if it doesn't happen this cycle.

Can't wait for the next few days to be over tbh so I can get on to the 2ww and and start attempting to symptom spot 😂

Hi all, thankyou for all your kind comments 😊

@genevive223 I told my partner when he came home about an hour later, i took the test the one rare time he actually had to got to the office - he is usefully working from home! He is excited, but we are also quite nervous as it is early days. I love your positive attitude, hopefully this next cycle is yours! 🤞

Oooh @lisamxxx fingers crossed!! Plenty of BD-ing for you over the next couple of days!! ♥️

How we all feeling today??✨

@Neom87 ah bless you I'm so excited for you have you called the doctor yet? I hope the next cycle is the one for me 😍

@xoJellyBean good thanks hun, finding it so hard to work at the moment all I think about 24/7 is my cycles lol , how are you?
