TTC#1- just beginning this journey.. Looking for buddy who is just beginning process

[Ella10]

Glad to hear she's doing a bit better smylee optimism is important for the healing process
Sorry to hear AF got you Swimmy. That's a bummer. I've never had any testing done as well. I'm waiting the year (which seems forever) that they suggest for people in their 20's trying to conceive who've been on the pill hope you get good resorts for your hubby.
Ff is saying o day is today (Saturday) however temperature has stayed even. no dip or rise. But ovia (another app) said I ovulated the other day (which I don't think I did). I'll continue on with baby making Olympics to try to capture the egg haha hoping I get crosshairs this month to confirm O. I didn't last month.

Sorry temping isn't giving you much info hope you o soon! I just started on ff and i'm finding it to be kinda confusing lol maybe its just me. My doc sent me a follow up email about the metformin and I asked her about the 2 day period. she said I should take a test just to be sure I'm not pregnant. But I took one the day before AF showed up and BFN so I know I'm not. Hopefully this cycle AF is a bit more like my norm (or not show up at all) hehehe. Here's to hoping we both o this month!

 

[Ella10]

Well here's hoping we both see a bfp soon
I'm a little down tonight. A little disappointed I dint ovulate (I don't think!). Ovia (another app) says I ovulate on cd18 last month so maybe it just hasn't happened yet. Maybe I ovulate late. Fingers crossed. Not feeling very hopeful tonight.
I swear this has been the week of find out everyone else is pregnant haha and as I am really happy for them all part of me gets a little growly inside haha
I have been very very crampy yesterday and today. But it has possibly been gas pain as well. It's been lower right abdomen. Does anyone else have pain before ovulating. I have never really noticed it before. But I have never really been watching for it before either haha
If You do... Do you notice it the day of ovulation of a couple days before???

 

[swimmyj1]

Every once and a while I notice ovulation pain usually when I ovulate from my left side (no clue why that is). For me I have sharp cramps but it only lasts for a few hours. Next day is when I get my darkest opk. So far I've only gotten 2 actual positive ovulation in the last year. Mine get darker but don't usually get the same darkness.

I agree with you I'm happy for people who have gotten their BFP but would love reading them if I also was getting one. Sounds so selfish when I say that out loud. Especially when I know how hard we are all trying.

 

[Ella10]

And I agree I feel selfish with the those thoughts too. It's not even from people on here. I know we are all trying. But from people who I know personally who are not trying.

 

[smyleegrl324]

I think it is human to feel jealousy. I am currently 8dpo ...I have had cramping for last 3 days. I think I had spotting yesterday. My cm was def tinted but not like full spotting so who knows..it's been pretty stressful. I just found out I lost my position at work due to budget cuts...ugh I've been here for 4 years.. Kinda sux, onward and upward...

Really could use a bfp..or one of use to get one ..some happy news would be awesome

 

[Ella10]

Oh no! Sorry about your job smylee. That is disappointing and stressful! But sound like you have a good attitude about it.
How are feeling?? Any symptoms?

Finally got my crosshairs this morning. I thought I had a temp did yesterday morning but realized I read the thermometer wrong. It is saying I ovulated sat. I was surprised. Becuase I didn't have a temp dip, just increase. So I guess that makes me 3 DPO. I'm not overly hopeful. But maybe I just don't want to get my hopes up hahah

 

[smyleegrl324]

I'm the same way I Try not to get too excited about anything. . Like u don't want to get my hopes up...
I have had cramping and had a lot of CCM for a few days and think I spotted. .who knows I prolly cut myself shaving rofl

Ring to stay up best spot job. .just hope I find new one soon. ..being annual contact every year is major draw back to teaching in FL

How bout? How r things?
How's everyone else doing?

 

[AmandaBanana]

Kay guys so I'm sitting here totally feeling fine. I get super nauseous all of a sudden and I ended up puking soon after.*
Morning sickness?*
I'm sorta excited!!

 

[smyleegrl324]

[BlueWife]

Hi I just got off the bcp going into three month. We've been trying to conceive and have found clearblue ot amazingly helpful. Unfortunately my doctor has only given us 6 month to ttc due to other medical issues so hopefully it happens. Currently 7 dpo, fingers crossed.

 

[AmandaBanana]

I was sitting there feeling horrible and aftwr I puked Dh was all smiles. I was like "why I just got sick" he said it must he cause I'm preggo, and then I was just smiles the rest of the night.
Never thought I'd enjoy puking! LOL
Thank you!testing tomorrow morning, I'll update then!!

 

[Ella10]

How exciting Amanda!! Keep us posted. Baby dust to you
Welcome blue wife!! I hope all is ok with you and hubby.

This was my faint test the night I got sick.
However I tested this morning with a first response and it was a bfn! I don't know what to think or feel!

 

[LoveNLight]

I'm 27 and just started TTC!!! Would love to be your buddy! Super excited!!

 

[Ella10]

I hate to be the Debbie downer of the group because I am trying to stay positivity but have been suppppper emotional lately. I just want to say I highly dislike mothers day this year. I love all the mamas in my life and appreciate all they do for me. But I'm just really emotional. I'm about 6 DPO at the moment. So it's to early to tell anything.
Love n light welcome. This is a great welcome space where you are free to post your thought and emotions Amanda don't give up. Keep us posted

 

[AmandaBanana]

I understand ella. I sometimes look at mothers with such jealousy, and a bit of hate cause I wish I was as lucky as them.
But they may have been in our place too once upon a time!
We will get our angels one day soon!

 

[BlueWife]

Thank you Ella10 and I completely understand your feelings about mother's day. Fingers crossed for you this month.

AF came 6 days early so naturally I got my hopes up that it was IB. It wasn't so now we're on our 3rd cycle off BCP.

 

[BlueWife]

Does anyone know any tips or tricks to help boost fertility? Every month I get a bfn I feel like there's something more I should be doing.

To be honest... (And I'm no expert) it just takes time for some people. Especially to understand their cycle and how it works. Are you taking vitamins?
