TTC January ✨

[Morticia31]

Basically looking for others starting their ttc journeys this month/year for support & experiences 🥰

Hi, can I join!?
Currently ttc baby no.2 cycle 1. Think I'm due to ovulate in about 5 days but tracking with opks and bbt. When we conceived baby no.1 they both matched so hoping it will be the same this time.

Hoping anyone that is in their tww is doing ok and hoping you get your bfp soon.

Anyone in my boat who hasn't reached ovulation yet, we got this 🙂 fingers crossed!

Omg sorry! Why are there so many of my post 🙈🙈 how embarrassing 😂😂 well hello! Good job this is online and you can't see my embarrassment in real life hahahaha! 🫢😳

Heyy everyone nice to have lots of us to do this together!

I’ve been trying for a few months now but started actually tracking ovulation last month so hopefully makes a difference,

how is everyone today x

Hi all, I've been off the TTC boards for a few months after essentially having mini breaks downs every month when my period came but this is what I got to see this morning after 13 cycles of trying for no2

Hi everyone,

I’m 2dpo, had my implant out 11 months ago and trying not to get too worried about lack of… anything! DP has got a phone call with the dr on Friday to hopefully arrange a sample, I’ve had my hormones checked and they’re fine, next step is a full internal ultrasound in march though it’d be good if I didn’t need it by then!

DSiS is pregnant with a month 1 ‘surprise baby’ and I’m trying not to be too jealous. 😑

Hi all - I would like to join please. TTC number 2. Started in July 2022 but it hasn't happened yet.
Despite having fairly regular periods, I've not been able to find my OPK peak yet. I stopped breastfeeding last month so I'm hoping that helps. I'm now on CD5 so fingers crossed!
Good luck everyone and congratulations @Pika93 !

@Pika93 Congratulations! 💖💖💖

I'm 5DPO today and i'm absolutely dying to test even though it's physically impossible to get a positive at 5DPO lol🤣
Does anyone know what the earliest I can test is? AF due a week today but don't think I can wait that long haha xx

Hi all, new here 😊 can I join please?
I'm 32 OH is 39, TTC for our first baby.
I have PCOS and undergoing some progesterone tests currently.
Officially started TTC this week!

Can I ask with regards to ovulation tests, it says to hold midstream which I'm finding difficult not to get anything on the window, is it OK to collect urine in a cup and test that way?

Is this normal please?

My ovulation day according to Flo is Thursday 12th. I was expecting the test line to get darker each day that I test. Help please 🙏

I've always collected in a cup. Which tests are you using? I should imagine it's fine, maybe you need to be careful not to flood it. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable will be able to answer you definitively though.

@Pika93 congratulations!!!

@AgeGapBbe it’s a bit hard not to be jealous sometimes isn’t it , not in a horrible way just a kind of emotional way .

welcome @afinethingindeed I’ve been trying sort of casually for quite a few months now too and it’s getting me down a bit , hopefully this is our month x

@Betsy21 hiii .. I always find it easier to collect in a cup too and find my lines change if I test multiple times in a day and can go from barley there to really dark over night ! Good luck

Thank you, sorry I'm new to all this lol. I've just used cheap ones from Home Bargains.

Ah ok thank you 😊 tbh I was expecting the lines to get darker suppose that would just seem like the norm. I shall keep testing, thank you!

@Betsy21 I think cheap ones are the only way otherwise it could get very expensive!
I use easy@home sticks with the premom app. Someone recommended them to me on another TTC thread a few months back.
I like it because you can upload a pic of the stick directly into the app and it sort of interprets the darkness of your line and gives you a number.
Maybe something to keep in mind for future cycles if you need it 😊

I agree definitely go for the cheap ones I get through soo many but they’ve been accurate for me soo far x

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm about 10 dpo (I think) and feeling quite anxious waiting. Feel like I'll be disappointed if I'm negative and scared if I'm positive (!) 🙄lol🙄 . What about anyone else?

Ooh I like the sound of these being able to load them in to an app. Will defo look in to these, thanks again!

@Hardly123 I get like that every month ! 🤞🏼 for you tho ,
mum having a weird cycle im on day 12 and still having a tiny bit of spotting never usually happens ! Worried it’s messed me up for this month 😞

• im not mum 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

I’m at 9dpo now, went pram shopping for my sister on Saturday. She and my mum saying ‘it’ll be you next’ and I’m just not convinced it’ll happen for us.

Tempted to test tonight, I’m (in theory) 4 days off AF appearing and I’ve got the super cheap super early tests in a big bag so I don’t limit when I use them really- I find it scratches an itch!

DP had his chat with the DR last Friday and they’re going to send him out a pot for a sample.

February will mark 12 months of no contraception, I never thought it would take this long!

@Hardly123 how are you getting on?

Thanks for asking! My period came after 29 days (35 the month before) so I think unfortunately we were DTD at slightly the wrong time (too late). Will have to see how next month goes. A little disappointing! How are you?

Ah that’s a pain! I’ve been monitoring cycles for 11 months, and ovulation every month for about 6 months I think now- though sometimes I go straight from ‘not fertile’ to ‘peak’ or I get 1 day of warning… so I’m thinking we need to dtd more going forward, as soon as my period’s done, really.
