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

@Kty09 yeah I understand I felt the same about this cycle !! oooh that makes sense then as I'd be due 3rd of Jan! That would be fun wouldn't it - 2 days apart !!

@Neom87 ooh that’s good to know!!
@Genevive123 such similar cycles only two days out - A 2022 baby 🥺 I will be doing a test on my OHs birthday next month so I’m really hoping for that too 🤞🏼

@Kty09 I know ! 2 days apart would be very cool haha ! You'd be the first person to get a "born in 2022" onesie ! Unless baby came a little early!!! X

@Genevive123 it’s going to be the longest TWW ever for us this cycle I think! X

@Kty09 yeah I agree I think I'm going to be testing 2dpo 😅😅 at least we're going through it together !! X

@Genevive123 feeling a bit better today so will try bd tonight. Think I will mentally cancel myself out for this month then if it did happen it would be an amazing surprise but definitely gonna try a bit more next month!

@Kty09 I suppose that's true I don't have high hopes but would be an amazing surprise if it did happen. I'm in a similar situation with my partner he works night shift so he sleeps most of the day so doesn't leave us with much time. It definitely can be a struggle but gonna stay positive for next cycle 🤞🏻

My cramps are gone today!🙈

Hope everyone is doing well :)

When are you going to test? @xoJellyBean 🙊

@Kty09 that is the question 🤣 I have no idea!! Any suggestions 🤣

@xoJellyBean arghh it’s so tough! I’ve always wanted to see a definite second line rather than guessing if it’s positive...meaning waiting longer 🤣 but it’s different what you say and what you end up doing lol 😩 x

@xoJellyBean please test I'm so excited for you!! Haha 😂

My cramps have gotten worse !! Also eating like a pig 😂😂

Flo app says ovulation is today (28th), DTD 24,25,26,27.
Wondering whether to dtd today or I'm covered

Also went to a big party last night (I'm in a "Covid-free" country), had several drinks and now regretting it. Feel like it was really stupid of me

Now we wait.... I am determined not to test until af is due. This is my first month of trying, trying to stay cool

@Veronika13 hey lovely don't beat yourself up over a few drinks ! Loads of women don't even know they're pregnant whilst drinking and you wouldn't have ovulated yet then so honestly don't stress :) x

@Genevive123 I might do tomorrow morning! My boobs feel huuuge tonight 🤣🤷🏼‍♀️ I'm nervous to see a bfn though 🥲

@Kty09 I totally agree though... would rather have a beautiful clear second line with no doubts whatsoever 🤣🙈 x

@xoJellyBean fingers crossed for you!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Xx

Hey can I please join you all? I'm TTC #1 - came off the pill in sept 2020, fell pregnant in January but had a miscarriage this month. We're TTC straight away. I'm using opks and did for my cycle in January when I fell. I think I'll try a different brand though mine seem crap I never get a good second line!! Xx

@xoJellyBean do it !! Got everything crossed for you lovely! ❤️ clocks go forward so we haven't got as long to wait for your result!!

@justwant2beamum of course hun! I'm sorry to hear about your miscarriage I know it's so tough..
Which OPK's are you using? X

@xojellybean so excited for your test tomorrow! Sending lots of baby dust your way!

I've lost track a bit this week so hopefully catch up with you all tomorrow :)

Thanks, just thinking of my ovulating egg being met with vodka and be like If it doesn't happen this month I'll prob blame it on that

Does anyone's DP DOESNT know when you're ovulating? I haven't told mine - we just dtd regularly anyway so all bases are covered.
I have this feeling that if he knows ovulation date then sex will be more mandatory ...? And less fun. I'm not sure though.

Total bfn for me guys 🤦🏼‍♀️🙈

@taytay2020 hey hun! how have you been doing ?

@Veronika13 haha honestly don't worry about the alcohol will be fine :) to be honest my DP doesn't have a high sex drive so I have all the control I just say "sex tonight" and that's it 😂 not very romantic but as I said he doesn't have a high sex drive (he never has and doctor said it was when he used to work nights supposedly)

@xoJellyBean aww no hun I'm sorry had everything crossed for you! Which test did you use ? Maybe too early? x

@Genevive123 I use one step but after finding this thread last night I looked and a lot of people have said they don't ever get good lines with them so I've ordered some easy @ home ones on Amazon last night xx

@xojellybean, how many days dpo are you today - 12? 🤔

@Neom87 my Femometer app tells me I'm 9dpo but my fertility friend app says 11dpo. My temp is still high so maybe I'm 9dpo! 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Genevive123 I used the Femometer HCG one :) x
