December TTC Support Group

[MyGardenDaisies]

Hey! Making a space for those that are :

• starting to TTC in December
• also had a negative in November and preparing to try again
• trying in November and will be testing in December

all welcome! 🤗

Hope we all get a BFP! x

@MummyV2021 awwww that's so exciting! That's definitely a line! Cautions Congrats! And hoping it keeps getting darker 😍

Thank you 🥰 trying not to get excited having had a chemical in September. Will be a lovely Christmas present if it sticks though!

8 or 9 DPO and tested this morning, obvz nothing 😂 I’m beyond bloated so will just have to wait and see. I’ve got a 26 day cycle so period due on Sunday so not long to wait. I’ll be due to ovulate next on Xmas day so merry Xmas to us if we’re not successful this time 🙈

Cycle twins!! I'm 8dpo today, have a 26 cycle and also due Sunday!
Fingers crossed we have more luck on tests tomorrow ❤️
My pdg test went up today and LH is also on the rise ... I know it can do this before AF so trying not to look into it too much but hoping a good sign

Aw yay! Is this your first or another that you’re trying for? We’re going for our second, we have a 7 month old daughter and want another quickly as I’m 37 next year. We may want a third at some point so trying to act fast! I fell pregnant on second cycle last time and this is just first go for us this time so not feeling hopeful.

Here’s hoping AF doesn’t make herself known to us on Sunday!!

I've had a private ultrasound scan before, at a place called Marlowe Innovation Centre in Kent. It was about £80. It was designed for pregnancy but I've been there before via the NHS for ultrasound scans to check my organs! It is definitely possible.

Strong line! Congratulations <3

I'm trying not to drink this time around just as an experiment to see what happens. I've not abstained for any other time apart from when I actually got pregnant and those pregnancies didn't work out. AF is due on 21st, so my reasoning is that if my period comes I can have drinks on Xmas and New Year!!

From what I understand it's ok to drink generally when TTC, my friend just delivered a healthy baby and had been on a hen do weekend just before she found out she was pregnant. I think I have suboptimal fertility at the moment so I'm trying out a few things (high folic acid, aspirin, vitamins, no drinking) to see if it helps this time around!

Hi everyone I I didn’t have sex until 1dpo this month as I was ill but I was 5 dpo yesterday and had blood tinged mucus.

Thankyou, that’s helpful, I’m in the West Midlands, I’ll see if I can find something online round my way.

Sounds like it could be implantation bleeding? I hope so, fingers crossed!

Good luck , its definitely a good idea to get checked out if you have the means.

@SarahB88 number 2 for us as well! Our daughter is 19 months old so need this journey to hurry up as I wanted a small age gap haha
Took us a year with my daughter and we're 7 months in this time round so hopefully soon!

Last time I feel pregnant we only had sex on 1dpo as well! So defo possible, fingers crossed for you x

Spotting started today cycle day 27 so bang on time for AF soo I think I'm out :( We've really been going for it so it's hard not to wonder what we're doing wrong! Now on month 6. Feeling pretty sad not gonna lie.

So sorry if AF is on her way! I had this month 6 that feeling of such disappointment, the months before I was like it's ok try next month but month 6 hit differently.
Now on month 7, this was suppose to be my fertile week but AF has arrived really early, never experienced this before so no idea what's going on!
Keep going!

Hopefully this is your cycle 🤞 I’m really hoping it’s quick for us again because I also don’t really want to go back to work after mat leave so if I can make that return as short as possible that would also be great 😂

Still no AF today, cycle day 35 when they should be 26-29 days. Nearly a week late. Tests are all saying negative. Don't know what's wrong.

Thanks @YourAmberDeer yeh I know in the grand scheme 6months is really not long at all (as my husband pointed out today) but it's still frustrating when you want it so badly.

Sorry AF arrived early for you, what a pain! Have you had any children before or this no.1 for you too?

Sorry to hear this, maybe your period is late? I have heard that can happen sometimes, but I'm not doctor! If it was me and it kept going like this I'd chat to the GP. hope you get answers soon!

@Tally89
I know it's frustrating isn't it, I think it's because the more months that pass the harder it becomes.

#1 baby so fingers crossed once AF has been and gone this cycle will be the one. I wish you luck too! Baby #1 for you too? X

5dpo today on cycle 2 of TTC #1 and trying no to symptom spot but blimin' hard! Anyone else out there on 5dpo? I've had little twinges today on the right hand side but I don't think it would be noticable at all if I wasn't looking for it 🙄

@Marge35 I’m on 6dpo and I was experiencing mild cramps and bloating yesterday, which isn’t usual for that point of my luteal phase when I’m not trying but again it could just be symptom spotting!

Ladies... so I am 9dpo and I took multiple strip tests that all have faint lines on, they're proper squinters but even my partner could see them so I'm not going crazy!
And this is my LH today.....
Trying not to get hopes up but I think this could be it!!!!
I'm away this weekend with family and we have a cocktail night tomorrow so god knows what I'm going to tell them about not drinking 😅

Fingers crossed 🤞❤️

Do they know your TTC? I normally just say I'm not drinking right now. I only really have a drink when AF is here and before ovulation.

Does LH stay up after conception? Im new to this. On 5th cycle TTC and using the tests the last 3
