TTC baby 1

[ttcbaby12023]

Hi all,

I'm new here and looking for my cycle buddies.

Currently CD24, 8 DPO. I'm in my TWW and the wait is killing me! Tested with FMU today and BFN. Although I convinced myself I saw a shadow, I think it's probably my line eyes lol.

I miscarried my first pregnancy 23/08 at 4w2d ( CP )

Praying for my BFP this month

Anybody else in the same boat??

Another morning, another BFN! I am so confused 😭

😢 so tough and confusing 😔

Really struggling today.
Cycle 4 not working and coming into cycle 5 has been really hard, it feels more like we are actually trying and it's not working as a pose to just starting out to TTC!!

Like it is a reality that we are TTC and it's not happening.

I cried a little before because I want a baby and I have no idea if it will ever happen. Part of me cannot imagine having a baby, like I don't see it because it's totally unknown but I also never expected to struggle to conceive. 😢 Emotional rollercoaster!!

I've just seen people I know on Facebook with their babies and I feel like a failure because I don't have kids 😔

Just needed to let that out.

Thanks guys

Hope you are all doing ok 😘

@TTC2022newbie i totally get it and you are not alone. im in Cycle 4 TWW and found CD1 really hard this month xxx

Thank you ☺️

I'm CD5 and AF finished yesterday. I'm just not feeling positive.

🤞 Hope you get your BFP in cycle 4 and don't have to hit cycle 5 like me 🤦🏼‍♀️😢

Aww bless you @TTC2022newbie

I felt like that coming into this cycle. All of our friends have kids and we are the only ones who don’t. We were at a wedding last month (AF had just arrived) and we were constantly being asked when we were gonna have kids. I had a little cry to my husband on the dance floor haha.

It’ll happen and you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself. Maybe book a trip away or something as a treat?

Hope you’re feeling OK! Sending baby dust 💕

@ttcbaby12023 how are you getting on? 💕

I’ve just had some really light bleeding - hoping it’s implantation and not AF! Just crying into a tub of Nutella 😢😂

Felling OK again now thankyou, just gotta keep trying i guess! 😊 And 🤞for you this month!

Fingers crossed everyone! 🤞

@RJS20 Hi lovies sorry I have been so MIA!

I am currently CD16 so in my fertile window with Ovulation predicted tomorrow( according to Flo)

BD as much as possible, but trying to relax this cycle and not pressure myself. I've stepped back from OPKs, so just winging it this month!

Sorry to hear about light bleeding, how are you feeling now?

@TTC2022newbie oh dear, it really is a mental and physical battle we go through, to get our precious little babies but hopefully soon it will be worth all the blood sweat and tears for each and every one of us🖤

Thank you ladies 🙂🥰😘

So right, it will be worth it and I need to stay positive and keep DTD 🍆

I think I had some light bleeding just now in my underwear - not too sure because the underwear is quite dark... can you have implantation bleeding 7 or 8dpo?

@RJS20 any update?

@RJS20 hope you are ok. Any update?

Feeling a bit crap today - thought I had some spotting on Wednesday but not sure and been having cramps and feeling really bloated all day yesterday and today. Breast had been really firm but feel a bit deflated today so I think AF might be coming soon. Due on Tuesday but I think I might be out for this month

@Firsttimetrying2022 I'm so sorry you're feeling down - sending you hugs and plenty of baby dust, and I hope your month gets better. Just remember you're not alone.

@CheeryCupcake thank you! Trying really hard to remain hopeful but just feeling a bit down - guess I won't know until AF shows up but it's hard to stay optimistic the longer it takes

Still having cramps and started spotting so think AF might be early. Bit strange as I'm normally very regular and if I'm off by a day it tends to be on the longer side. Tiny part of me that's hoping this might be implantation but also don't want to get my hopes up too much and be disappointed when it turns out to be AF

So my first every OPK 🤣

I'm not due to ovulation until next Thursday-Saturday

But am I closer than I think with this OPK?

I'm feeling slight twingers down there, hormone headache yesterday and a fair bit of CM last few days

Any advise appreciated 🙂

Hey can I join? I’m ttc for my first and we are on cycle 7! I’m 12dpo but think AF is going to come as got my usual pms! I feel like I’ve tried everything and I’m giving up hope 🤦🏼‍♀️ everyone I know conceived quickly but it’s because you only hear about the “I got pregnant first try”!! I don’t have many friends I can talk to about it all etc

Could I join also please? TTC1, cycle 4. Hoping this is the month ❤️ xx

AF came fully this morning so I'm on to cycle 4. We're trying to take a step back and just dtd every other day this cycle rather than tracking my cycle so will see how we go

@Firsttimetrying2022 sorry AF came! I think mine is about to start too!

If it helps I stopped tracking a few months back and it’s felt more relaxing. I found I had signs of my fertile window / ovulation so I go off them but try not focus on them too much! I find it easier knowing I have like over 7 days to dtd then thinking “today is good I got a peak”!

look after yourself today xx
