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 ? ☺️

I would certainly try just incase! She found out she was pregnant 9 days after her period was due with a very faint BFP 😃😃 hopefully you’re already pregnant as the girls have said though!! Xx

AF is here for me ! Just showed up full blown ! But I was told by surgeon that I can ttc next cycle as my surgery is very soon so I'm thrilled. I'm not leaving the dino club :) xxx

Sorry to hear about AF arriving but at least you’re not on TTC standby for too long !! 🩷🩷

I have suddenly started gagging and feeling nauseous in the last 3 hours, I’m hoping it’s a good sign and not a tummy bug!! Haha!!

Well as disappointing as it is as least the timing works well around your surgery

@Gemmaemilyx oh wow lots of symptoms! Hope it s not a tummy bug 🤒 - I admire your strong will I would have caved in and tested by now just to be sure haha! @Lila34830 sorry you're AF arrived today bit good to hear you can start TTC again straight after xx

@Celine88 oh trust me as soon as I got In the door from work I was POAS 🤣🤣🤣🤣 nothing on IC. Possibly a faint on the FRER. but not holding my breath!! Xx

@Sugarcube84 exactly ! Nature does things well I guess. Still hoping for some of you to be positive !

Sorry to hear, but I bet you are low key relieved after saying the surgery would be risky if pregnant! Let’s hope the first cycle after your op is a lucky one for you!! Great news for you, that you can carry on ttc so quickly after your op! Xx

Tanks @KT199 I am relieved as idk what I would have done otherwise !

Hold on...the fact there's a 2nd lh peak to look out for just complicates things so much more 😫😫 Genuinly will be DTD for about 12 days straight at this point 😅 Husband will be loving life 🫣

Do any of you recommend natural cycles? Just want some real opinions before I go for it!

Hey! So I can defo recommend it, but I ended up stopping temping with the thermometer and now use my Apple Watch automatically. The problem I had was more me, I was forgetting, moving, not taking temp at same time ect ect but you can set your watch to do it auto at same time everyday and you do nothing. But what I will say is, you can download an app called fertility friend (FF) and that does what natural cycles does, for free.. so you don’t need to part with the £70. Don’t get me wrong the FF app looks almost prehistoric whereas NC is more updated in terms of looks, but they do the same.. infact FF has more tracking capabilities and you can let it us OPK data over temp if you think your not reliably testing which NC doesn’t allow. Had I known about FF before NC, I wouldn’t have paid for it.

Thank you! I will have a look at FF too! X

Don’t worry not everyone gets this second peak!! You only tend to get a second peak or multiple peaks if you have PCOS or if you don’t naturally ovulate after your first peak, your LH will rise again and you will have 2nd stronger peak to try make ovulation happen. Chances are if your having a period 10-14 days after your LH peak you are ovulating from that first peak you’ve found xx

No problem! I renewed my subscription 2 months ago not realising about FF but used NC as birth control for a year prior. If you do want to sign up, feel free to message me for a referral code as it will give you 20% off your subscription and a free thermometer 😂 (if you can’t find any better discount of course!!) x

@littlebluu if that can make you feel better I only get one peak ! 🤣 and thank god because it's already hard enough for us to DTD for a week straight

@Lila34830 Honestly 😅😅
It's so unromantic 🤣
I'm sure DH is loving it but I'm exhausted hahah!

Morning ladies, after the spotting yesterday AF is definitely here this morning. I knew I was out so no further disappointment just glad a new cycle is here to try again.

Hope some fossil announcements take place this week, got my fingers crossed for you ALL!! ❤️🪨

I used it for contraception & it was great, I still have it now but also use the premom app for scanning my LH tests etc, they're both within 1 day of each other for predicted ovulation.
The bonus I find with NC is that if I wake up and take my temp, it saves it until I upload it later, so I can do my temp half asleep and if I doze back off and forget what the temp was it doesn't matter!

Hey! I think I've started my AF on cycle day 26? I'm never ever early!? Xx

Hey! Sorry to hear this, how are you feeling?
Wonder if the TWW has caused you a little extra stress this time round? Xx

Yeah I'm ok as knew I was out as tested early! Xxxx

@slothbat what length is your cycle usually ? Do we dare thinking of implantation or too late ? xx

AF in full force over here and no energy ! I hope to see some 🪨 but if not let's go for next round girls, we can do this 🫶🏽

@Lila34830 28 days like clockwork? Xxx
