TTC (trying to conceive), first time, second cycle

[HSX8]

Hi guys, TTC first baby, I am on my second cycle. AF is late but tests are coming back negative... hate this waiting game and I've only just started. baby dust to all you lovely ladies

Glad to hear everyone is getting on ok and feeling pretty relaxed.

@gigchic hopefully your cycle settles down. Wine goes hand in hand with af.

@Lavagurl awww look at them! I'm so glad you had such a good day. Your dress looks so pretty. What kind of veil did you have? I still need to order mine and I fancy a cathedral but I am not sure if it'll just annoy me when people stand on it. That happened to me last month with the smilies. Circles then just a static. Then this month I had 5 flashing smilies and then ran out. I've also tried taking my bbt this morning and using the Femometer app and the analysis basically tells me to be better at taking my temperature 😂 so who knows what will happen this month.

@BrodieKD I don't know the terminology but it was long and sparkly.

I can't do bbt as I work shift work so wouldn't be able to test at the same time. I also suck at noticing symptoms so I wouldn't have a clue if I was ovulating, just hoping that since I get a static that I am

@Lavagurl that's exactly what I've been looking for. Stunning! Great that you've got some photos back so quickly too. I'd love to have my dog at our wedding but he would end up making the day about 100 times more stressful. He isn't very good with things that are out of the ordinary. Yesterday he was barking at a mini greenhouse that I put up in my kitchen and running away like it was going to bite his bum😂

@Lavagurl ah your dress looks lovely. We have two border collies too! ❤️. Yours is an amazing colour. Where is the world are you? Your trees have leaves on.... I'm so excited spring is slowly arriving in the UK now... and we're coming out of lockdown slowly.

@gigchic I live in New Zealand
Border collies are fantastic!

@BrodieKD Aw, we had someone bring the dogs to the park for a few pictures and then take them to the kennels. They wouldn't cope if they went to the actual wedding.

@Nattie33xx

No look last cycle so hoping 3rd time lucky 🙏 I use flo too! Going to try preseed and hopefully dtd actually on ovulation day instead of days before as I've missed it first 2 cycles. Good luck everyone x

It would be good if we could set up this kind of chat on Flo but there's no option to do so unless we went on the same thread and hijacked it haha

[quote Lavagurl]@BrodieKD Thanks, had an amazing day! My fav picture of the day haha.

So I had plain circle on clearblue ovulation test on Thursday and then it went straight to static smiley on Friday. Not sure why I missed the flashing smiley. First month I had 2 flashing days, second month only 1 flashing and now none lol.

Now we wait, Ovia app says 11 days until pregnancy test.[/quote]
Congats!! Xx

@Lavagurl ahhh I've been to NZ a few times and love it. Want to move there. ❤️

Hi,

We are on our 6th cycle TTC for the first time. I have started temping this month however I am confused by my chart.

I had a peak LH on CD 15 followed by temp drop CD16 and consecutive elevated temps after however app has calculated ovulation CD13. I have attached my chart, can i please have opinions?

Thank you x

@Shan2308 hey :) it defo looks like you are 4dpo to me! Sometimes my app does that too though x

@xoJellyBean ah i thought so, I'm glad you agree thought I was going loopy for a minute! x

Ladies I've got my first ever BFP on q digital test this morning! I can't believe it. The things I did differently this month is use conceive plus lubricant did the deed missionary and did it 4 days before ovulation 1 day before ovulation and on the day of ovulation and it worked! Baby dust to you lovelys xx

@Nattie33xx congratulations! Being relaxed must have worked as I'm 5 weeks pregnant too! Congratulations! I'm really pleased for you. There is a due in December thread 2 if you fancy it in pregnancy I think. How are you feeling?

@BrodieKD thank you 😊 awe that's fab news congratulations👏 I'll have to have a look at that thread. I feel so happy not really got any symptoms yet but I do have sore boobs x

How are you feeling ?@BrodieKD

@Nattie33xx glad to hear you are feeling good. I'm ok thanks. I have the odd wave of nausea but nothing too bad. A bit bloated too. I've got an early scan in 3 weeks which I am just counting down the days for. I think I'll feel a lot better once we've had that. Very excited though. Looking forward to finally telling my mum. I feel like it's screaming out of me 😂 x

It's so exciting! Bet you can't wait for your scan. I can't wait to tell my mum aswell, I'm going to go to doctors this week to confirm with a blood test then I think I will tell my mum 🙂

Aww congrats ladies 🥰

Thank you @xoJellyBean 😊 xx

Hi guys, I come with news! I am also 5 weeks pregnant wahoo, we found out today with a BFP!

@HSX8 that's amazing news!! Congratulations

Congratulations 👏👏

It's really strange as I thought you were meant to see the doctor as soon as you find out you are pregnant but they said they don't do that anymore so I have to wait until I'm 8.weeks pregnant and I have a phone appointment with a midwife. Is this normal? Also I don't think.i see the midwife on week 8, just a bit worried to when you are actually seen is this the same for you guys?

@Nattie33xx I haven't seen the doctor. They've just booked me in for a midwife appointment at 8 weeks and my 12 week scan x
