Anyone TTC Dec 2023

[Cantcareless]

Just looking for some company with ladies planning TTC 2023. There's already a thread for Jan 2024 but would be nice to keep company for Dec :)
Initially planned to start TTC 2024 Jan but it's feels time is going too slow and too broody now.
Also, worried about age turned 34 few months ago and feel clock is ticking(just my opinion).

@4LeafCloverBaby yeah it is sucky but it's genetic which worries me too as my children will have a 50% chance of getting it. I'm in the West Midlands, In a very small city ahah xx

@Lowrilawson oh bless you, that’s a horrible burden hanging over you isn’t it. At least if they did you have the experience with it to guide them through it. Ahh ok, I’m sure there are some good fertility clinics up your way anyway 🙂 Also I didn’t know there was such a thing as a small city?! 🤔 hahaha x

@4LeafCloverBaby that is very true, also it wouldn't be that I'm not ovulating as I get strong opks. Very small city population of 53,000 in the whole county ahah it's ok the border of wales x

@Lowrilawson there are so many elements to fertility aren’t there. They may do the bloods & scans & straight away see something that’s an easy fix. Saying that, I’ve read about a lot of women that fall pregnant on their last month of trying before seeking medical help…so I’m sending all the luck for your next cycle hun. X
PS I now can’t help but read your posts with a brummy accent 🤭x

@4LeafCloverBaby yeah we shall see, also it takes 3 months for your cycle to get back to normal after finishing the pill and I only finished it in July, pahahah I'm not sure how to describe my accent, I wouldn't say I have an accent😹 but you are close my dads family live in Birmingham😹 it's about 1h and 15m away from me xx

@Lowrilawson yes that’s true too, I only came off in August. Ahh ok you’re a Hereford girl! x

@4LeafCloverBaby how did you know!?!?! Xx

@Lowrilawson I could tell by your accent 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 x

Pahahah😹😹 genius! x

@Lowrilawson aww I’m gutted for you 😔 that sounds like a good plan. It will happen, although right now I’m sure that doesn’t help!xx

@Babno3 thank you, how are you doing? Xx

@Lowrilawson im doing good, have been extremely tired and awful mood swings and just very irritated all the time lol I’m also feeling scared about my period landing like the last time with the chemical. But praying that doesn’t happen 🥰

@Babno3 Awh you poor thing yeah I'm irritated all the time at the moment but I think that's pms ahah xx

@Lowrilawson aww it’s so hateful not knowing for sure!! You’ve been testing haven’t you? I’m crazy but I’ve ran out of tests and used an opk as I’ve read it will flash up straight away if you’re pregnant and it did just that. Lol xx

@Babno3 yeah been testing, got line eyes, I'd be 11dpo now, I've got light spotting but I get it before a period so I've come to terms that it's not my month xx

@Lowrilawson and is there definitely no lines? Did you post a photo? Yea I always get line eyes, I also get spotting before my period but when I was expecting dd1 I was spotting and thought that’s me out as all tests were negative then drank a lot of wine lol period didn’t come and I was pregnant. It was just implantation xx

@Babno3 yeah I wish that was the way it was going for me but just haven't got that hope, no I didn't post a photo as they all look negative, think I just look long enough for my eyes to play tricks ahah xx

@Lowrilawson aw I know!! The waiting game is awful! Sending you lots of luck and positivity that it happens soon 🥰☘️

@Babno3 Awh I wish you luck on your journey! Can't wait to hear all about it! xx

What early tests do people use? I am 6 days away from my period and think I'm going to test tomorrow otherwise I find it just consumes me so would rather it just be over with! Is this an okay time to test? :) I usually just wait until my period but I always let my mind play tricks on me x

@hol92 hiya! So first response tests are 6 days before period. I would say though that it could give you a false negative because your body hasn't built up enough HCG xx

@hol92 hey! How many dpo will you be tomorrow? From what I’ve been reading, because different people’s luteal phase varies, the “days before period” is due level of accuracy can vary if that makes sense!

I used the boots early test yesterday morning (9dpo) and it was BFN. But this morning I have a vvvvvfl. Period due probably Thursday /Friday. Keeping my fingers crossed it progresses ☺️☺️☺️

@hol92 and the cheapo easy at home I took this lunch time also confirmed things

Ahh congratulations @Butterfly391 ❤️

@Cazzy87 thank you SO much! Can’t quite believe it. Just praying it sticks! 🤞💕
