fiancé and I are TTC baby #1! I am so unbelievably excited but so frustrated at the same time! I had the implant in my arm removed October 27th. Finally had my period November 22-26! Very heavy but I was happy to be on track. I'm assuming I will be ovulating soon so we've been DTD every other day. I know I shouldn't be frustrated yet- there are plenty of women who wait months or even years but I just want my baby! Just venting a little. Doesn't help that my mother is less than supportive of our decision. Any advice on TTC? Would be nice to make a few friends :)
 
Hey, Welcome!

My fiance and I are also TTC, this is month #2 for us. My cycles are a bit irregular, but I should be Oing soon, so we're trying to BD every other day, but with opposite schedules it's a bit hard. I'm also trying not to go crazy over it, because I totally get what you mean! I don't know how some women have been doing this for a year without going insane.

My advice that I've read quite a bit is don't overshare and don't go crazy with everything! I personally love looking at baby stuff and reading blogs/websites, etc but I also know I won't be devastated if AF comes because it's still so new to us.

Are you using (or plan to use) OPKs or are you temping? I started using OPKs, but haven't gotten a positive or even a faint line on the cheapies so it's freaking me out a bit, ugh!
 
No opks or charting yet- fiancé wants to take a relaxed approach. But we agreed if this isn't our month we will be using opks and I will start charting for cycle number three of trying. I'm honestly too afraid to do an opk because of the fear of not getting a positive result! Ugh!
 
I think I might just stop with the opks for a while. It's so frustrating seeing negatives. I'm just going to pay attention to my body and if it doesn't happen this month I might start temping too. I think the relaxed approach is definitely the way to go!
