TTC January ✨

[Morticia31]

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

@AgeGapBbe I’ve had 12 months with no contraception now too 😞

but both taking vitamins now & ovulation tests & just going for it every night , twice in my fertile week 🤣
long tww now !

@Hardly123 sorry af came , onto a new month of trying to time it right 🤞🏼✨
hooe everyone else is doing ok x

I'd love to join. 41 yrs old trying for baby #1. Had 3 miscarriages. 2013, 2014, and 2016. I'm scared to death but something in my heart is saying JUST TRY AGAIN. Best of luck to you all

Welcome @kiyabiya 🥰 sorry to hear about your miscarriages … really really hoping you get your positive !
how are you doing this month ? X

@Morticia31 thank you for your kind words. This month I'm okay. Just anxious and hopeful and scared lol

@hopefulkiy1020 it does make you anxious doesn’t it .. I feel like I have a good chance this month which makes me even more scared because of how much the disappointment hurts,
but hopefully we all get what we want this month ✨

9dpo but couldn’t resist doing a early cheapy test. BFN of course! Will see how I go and test again in a few days if AF doesn’t appear first 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

@Morticia31 yessssssss the disappointment is the worst but like you said, hopefully we all get what we want. So hella baby dust and blessings😍

Good luck @AgeGapBbe ! 🤞🏼
got my positive ovulation test yesterday so a way behind you 🙈

@hopefulkiy1020 ✨✨✨

Thanks xx

How's everyone doing?

I'm really excited/relieved because I finally found my peak - after months of testing!
I peaked yesterday on CD15. My cycles are average 25/26 days so it's later than I thought. It means on previous months we've been trying slightly too early.. we've been DTD every other day since CD6 just in case 🙈 😴
I just feel glad that I'm hopefully ovulating and we're actually in with a chance this month.

Hello 🙂 feeling a bit fed up having to wait till next Sunday to test. How are you? Oh you are the same as me my cycle averages 25-27 days and I peaked on day 16. I had my progesteone levels done on friday so fingers crosse di actually ovulated.Nice to hear someone in the same boat! You have a very good chance if it's been every other day, I don't know how you have the energy 😂

Ahh glad you found your peak. ! Mine was a lot later than expected too but have dtd every evening or morning this month to be sure we don’t miss it anyway 😂
I have a week and half to wait now to test & it’s really dragging ..
anyone have any plans for the weekend x

@Morticia31 I'm soooo happy for you. I got my positive opk this morning. What a joy. Fingers crossed 🤞🏽

Good luck @Betsy21! Let us know the results.
Yeah it's been a hard slog lol - think we're both looking forward to having a little break I think 😂

@Morticia31 wow! I've found every other day hard enough! Fingers crossed for you!!

I'm not doing anything interesting this weekend - just at home with toddler. You?
Next weekend, DH and I are away for the night so I think that'll help pass some of the time in the TWW. It's a hard wait otherwise.

Seems like a few of us will be testing at the same time... it's nice being in the same boat but wish it wasn't so hard for everyone.

🤞 for you all x

Thank you @afafinethingindeed hoping its good news! When will you be testing? Seems like a lot of us are around the same time. Haha yeah a well deserved break, enjoy it 🙂

But worn out now 😅 think we got a bit excited this month and really want it to happen ,
ahh will be nice for all of us to do the wait together 🥰

that will be nice a nice evening away , it’s my brothers 30th tomorrow so a nice family day for us x

@Betsy21 I want to say I'll wait until 4th feb but will probably start testing from around 1st (11 DPO). What about you? When will you hear back about your bloods?

@Morticia31 when's your first test? Are you able to hold out? I hope you enjoy your family day tomorrow! xx

@afinethingindeed I’m due in 9days so will wait till then (I say but definitely won’t) haha

my daughters birthday is the 4th ! Hope it’s a lucky day for you too !

Hi all, can I join you? We've been half hearted trying for a second for a while with no real regard for ovulation or anything like that. This month we got serious so I'm 4dpo and according to my Fitbit (usually correct!) due in 6 days which doesn't seem quite accurate so not sure when to test!

Going by flo it says to test next Sunday with my period being the Monday. Usually flo is spot on for my period so I will see if I can hold off 1 more day haha! Bloods should be back mid week so fingers crossed. They did say if no ovulation then it'd be a referral to fertility clinic. Fingers crossed for you 🙏 how long have you been ttc?

Welcome Redavocado ..
did you confirm ovulation? Does sound pretty soon but when I first used ovulation tests my period came later to match that date & my app caught up the next month , fingers crossed for you x

Yep, ovulation confirmed and totally different to the time in the Fitbit app! I'm holding off testing and will see if my period arrives this week!

Hey all! Please can I join? I am 30, ttc for the first time and first month. Just in my fertile window now, flo predicts today is day of ovulation. Feeling bloated so i dont know if thats an ovulation sign😂😂🤞 feeling pretty clueless 2bh. Xxx

@Betsy21 only started in July last year so not as long as others on this board. Feels long enough though. I really hope you have good news this week.

Hi @Chip131 welcome! DH and I are TTC our 2nd and I still feel clueless - wonder if that ever goes away! There's a lot of really helpful people on these boards though so shout if you need anything. Also, it sounds like you've got similar dates to a few of us. Are you using any ovulation tests? I've just found out the app predicts my ovulation date about 4 days too early so I'd recommend thinking about that if needed x

Thank you! No, i tried to avoid that as felt id obssess even more than I already am😂 might be worth getting them though I think! Xxx
