Hi ladies.
My partner and I have been actively TTC for a tiny 2cycles but already it's not happening and I'm getting obsessed so I've decided to come back to NTNP, although admittedly, I'm not sure if I can because I'm such a control freak! And how do you go back to NTNP once you've decided to try?!
So, I'm looking for a buddy to share the whole process with.

Hi and welcome!
I did NTNP when I was ttc my little girl and got pregnant within two months, so I decided to try this strategy again. I came off the pill about three weeks ago and would love to get pregnant quite quickly but don't like the idea of "trying", charting, keeping track of dates etc just yet. We just
as often as we want or don't want too, which is say, every two/three days but we don't plan anything or check when I am ovulating. I'd like it to just happen. However I'm not finding it quite as easy being relaxed this time.... Because I got pregnant quite quickly last time, I feel like I've put pressure on myself to get pregnant quickly again second time around
I keep reading too much into every "symptom" and it's only been a few weeks since I came off the pill
Hope it happens for you soon. I do honestly think that the relaxed approach does work though... so perhaps you will get a BFP soon xxx
Hiya thanks for posting.
I really could of written your post myself.
I was on the pill for 9years when we decided to ttc my daughter. We were prepared to wait upto a year for anything to happen as told by my GP but after my first cycle, I got caught pregnant! It was such a shock lol. However, this time I had the implant in for 2years almost, had it removed in June but nothings happened yet so I find myself worrying and putting pressure on us both, I just hope this new relaxed approach does the trick!

Yeah, first time round I expected to wait longer to get pregnant because it is absolutely normal for it to take a year or more to conceive. This time round, I know that again, a year or more is absolutely normal, even more so given that I am older now, and that due to LO and tiredness probably don't
as much as we did first time round. But... still, the pressure is there- a year feels like such a long time to wait. It is very early days for me and I'm already frustrated. I have been waiting for my first AF since coming off the pill three weeks ago, and I think it finally arrived yesterday.. it is a bit light and more like spotting though???
Sorry if TMI. If it is my period though I'm happy because it means my cycle is maybe getting back to normal and that I am probably ovulating again.
June wasn't too long ago so for you, it's early days also so hopefully you will have good news in the coming months.
How is your OH about it all? My hubby keeps telling me to stop thinking about it.. but it is not so easy when you are the woman, noticing changes in your body/mood and thinking about every "symptom" etc. For loads of men it is just dtd and eventually they find out we are pregnant. For women, out bodies keep reminding us month after month... no wonder we can't keep it from our minds.
