TTC buddies Baby #1 - anyone ?

[Lila34830]

Hey ladies 👋🏽
Just thought I'd post this to find some buddies in the TTC journey as a clueless gal trying for baby #1 ! 🫶🏽
Ovulated today, so I guess the 2WW starts ! ⏰
Anyone else starting their 2WW ? ☺️

@Em3009 I came off the pill just over a year ago and found natural cycles was so useful with figuring out my cycle etc, honestly I was totally clueless about everything before that!

@KT199 ive been doing LH tests & BBT, the temp thing is now just a habit from when I was using natural cycles for contraception..but who knew it wasn’t as easy to get pregnant as they lead you to believe in school 😂

I’m the same as you!! I had my implant removed a year ago, used natural cycles to then “prevent” so now it’s built into my routine! I’ve been doing LH too!!

I know, can’t believe I was made to believe almost looking at a boy would make you pregnant without birth control 🤣

@KT199 it's like reverse psychology we should be thinking we don't want to be pregnant 😂😂 then bam 💥!! 😂😂😂

Hello everyone 👋🏾! Hope it is okay to join? Currently on 2nd cycle TTC #1 and finding it a bit more complex than anticipated haha!! Wishing some baby dust to everyone this month 💕. I 'm tracking ovulation with easyathome opk tests and waiting on AF to arrive so I can do the hertility test! Anyone else has tried Hertility so far? xx

Hahahaha love you comment😂! Damn ! What if we trick our brains to think so haha if only was that easy

Oh hello, i was wondering about you!
i think no symptoms are a good signs too, fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for you! And what a blessing when life is busy during the tww 😄
when are you AF due ?

Hahahaah, you may be onto something here! Stop manifesting pregnancy start manifesting none 🤣🤣🤣

Hey! 🙂
No, I have seen them though! Thought it looked reasonable for the price. I am going to pay for my hormones tested this month though if AF arrives!! Although, from discussions I’ve had typically if you have a regular cycle, of normal length, everything will be fine hormone wise. But I do think it’ll put my mind at ease. There is also an at home sperm analysis you can do called exseed which me and my OH have discussed doing the month after if still no look and my bloods come back ok.

Wishing you lots of luck of your ttc journey 😊 your not the only one struggling with it though and this thread has been SO helpful to me this month! Xx

Happy Monday everybody - how are we all?

Well, everyday i've said 'i'm not gonna test' and everyday since 6PO I have lol

10dpo today, BFN but refuse to count myself out! Had bad back pain today and had EWCM for last 2-3 days which seems unusual.

Gonna test at 12DPO (she says) and then hold out until the weekend if nothing.

@HeartyPanda aw thanks! Due on Saturday so hoping I can hold out if nothing arrives 🤞🏻 Were you similar?

And definitely feeling annoyed at how scared we were all of getting pregnant when apparently it's pretty unlikely 90% of the month 😂

PS welcome all newbies!

@continuallyconfused Im due Thursday/Friday. But as i said feels like AF is on the way, pretty damn sur!
Im just currently sobbing over it! I was holding pretty good until now, the idea of wanting a little one in my arms kills me, and i want it so so so bad ( so much for the reverse psychology of @slothbat 🥲)
i keep watching those positive videos of pregnancy after MC but im just at my lowest.
few cycles in, i know there ´s no point in testing before AF It will only confuses me more, i just want her in so i can go on with another cycle.
damn those tears…

im sorry for the newbies @Celine88 @LuckyDuck93 this is not what you need to hear, but i hope your experience is thousands time better mine.

Good evening all,

I have been absolutely floored with cramps. Has anyone ever noticed more intense cramping after an unsuccessful cycle?

My head is absolutely bursting aswell.

Hope everyone is having a better evening than me 😆 Also hello to all new members 😁

@Em3009 Still finding my feet with regards to testing with LH strips etc, I've made sure my husband is not going to be working out of the city like he was last month and make the most of all of the days around ovu 🫣
I'm dreading this months tww, I think I actually went a little bit insane this time round. I would highly recommend you find stuff to try keep you as occupied as possible 😆😆

🩵✨️

@HeartyPanda so sorry to hear you're struggling, sending you lots of love and positive wishes. ❤️

Thank you everyone for your welcoming messages!! Ah @HeartyPanda I am sorry to hear you're feeling low today sending big hugs and positive thoughts your way (and loads of baby dust once AF finally shows up!).@KT199 thank you, I have also seen the at home test for men which should also give a good indication, at least you're not working out too much money all at once since if everything is fine(which I hope it is) you don't need to go for more expensive tests.

Good morning ladies!
Ive woken up to spotting today, so AF is on her way right on schedule! Which I guess is also a blessing as she’s not playing any tricks on me.

Good luck to you ladies still in the TWW! Really hoping to see some fossil announcements in the next week!

Ladies in the same boat as me, onto the next cycle let’s hope it’s a lucky one! ❤️

Morning @KT199 my AF is deffo on track just want it to start now so can move onto the next month!! Hope you are feeling ok!? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Morning! Im okay, thank you for asking. I’m a little sad, but tbh I think when I tested Sunday and saw the outcome and temps dropping I knew, so it’s almost a weight has been lifted that it’s on time and I can go into my next cycle! I hope yours doesn’t arrive @slothbat but you won’t be alone if it does! Xx

Hey gals, can't believe there's no 🪨 so far ! What are these eggs doing !
I am gonna test but pretty sure it will be negative (apparently I can go back to ttc in nov / dec anyways so I'm glad).
I had my typical pms night sweat last night (anyone gets that ? It's awful I literally soak the bed for one night )

9/10dpo today and BFN, cmon ladies,
one of us needs their BFP this month 🙏🩷

Definitely, would actually lift my spirit 🫶🏽

100% we need one 🪨 to keep us all going!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi I’m joining you all currently 5dpo on our 3rd cycle ttc number 3. Think I’m the oldest 🦕 here at 40.

Good luck everyone l, one thing I will say is early tests never worked with either of my other 2 I had to have missed my period to get a positive test

Me too! My first I was almost 2 weeks late with barely a line and my second I got the FAINTEST line on the day of my period due! I must be a late implanter consider ovulation day is CD 14 🤣. When are you due AF? X

I’m due on 17th but even though I know I won’t get early lines I’ll still test anyway 😂

where are you at on your cycle?

Morning all 😊 I'm about halfway through my TWW and it's starting to get to me! Not much is happening with me, no symptoms at all (PMS or otherwise) and just TRYING to wait patiently...
We go on holiday on the day my AF is due, so either way it's going to be a strange week!
