TTC in June anyone

[gottajones]

Hey ladies! Checking in... how is everyone and where are you guys in your cycle?

I'm on cycle day 5, still taking my fertility mix and now waiting to ovulate and about to start the marathon. I hope DH is ready. Lol! I hope everyone is feeling refreshed. Thinking of you all!

Welcome CurlyRose

 

[Lilly_m]

Currently on cd7! Started the bd'ing yesterday! I've been drinking my grapefruit juice regularly and can already notice an increase in cm!

 

[Nervous nelly]

Welcome Mrsb87 & Curly Rose 🎉🎊

I am CD 5 today and already wishing it was cycle 10 onwards 😂😂going to BD ever other day from now 🙊

Oh Lily m grapefruit juice I must try this myself and see how I get on.

Girls still in the race for June any symptoms?

 

[CurlyRose]

So far on my list of symptoms are low level tingly cramps, sore boobs (they are normally sore day before af, but not noticeably any other time) a slight bubbly sensation that is definitely not just wind, excessive tiredness and sudden, unexplained, bursts of happiness and energy, which again I ususally associate with AF, about three days in!

That said, this is month 1, I'm not sure exactly when I ov'd and I am trying to keep feet on the ground. I have definitely not googled every single thing mentioned and "early preg symptom"... Honest... Ish.

Good luck to those about the begin the BD marathon, have to say I was glad when that was over this month, I have the lowest drive ever, god knows how I'll manage through any more months

Hi ladies, sounding good for the start of your cycles!

I'm still waiting for AF next week, no symptoms of her or pregnancy so... who knows?

Curly your symptoms sound good!

I thought it might be nice to get to know eachother a bit better - I'm 32 from the north of England and a primary school teacher, me and dh have been married nearly 5 years. What about everyone else?

I thought we could stay on this thread into July rather than start all over again if you fancy that ladies?

 

[Libbystepof4]

Continuing here is fine with me!
I live in Texas. I studied to be a chef, but I don't work. I'm 36. DH and I have been married for three years but have known each other since we met in college in1998!
CD 8 here, so its time to start dancing!
Been taking my supplements and herbs and concoctions religiously! Hoping hoping hoping!

 

[RayinNY]

Hey ladies-
hope everyone is doing well this father's day. I'm cd 4 and clomid day 2 of my second round. 8th round of ttc. Last month I needed 2 doses of clomid and a trigger shot. Had a very bizarre AF and hoping that my body responds well to the therapy this month. I'm 30, living in NY, a teacher for kids with Special needs between the ages of 6-9, and about to celebrate my one year wedding anniversary in Mid july. We have been together for almost 7 years and dh is also 30. I have suspected pcos causing insanely irregular cycles, so hoping that Clomid does the trick this round. FX and baby dust for all of us

 

[CurlyRose]

I'm 27, also England, been with OH for over 5 years, I work in mental health and absolutely love it! We've wanted kids since forever, but it's just been waiting for my job to become stable, it now has, and so I can finally get going with this!

Love the idea of the thread carrying on, looking forward to getting to know my fellow thread buddies better over that time! Maybe you can convince me to stop POAS until it's time to actually test!

 

[swimmyj1]

Hey guys I'm all for staying on this thread lol easier than starting another one. I'm CD 4. Hoping to hear back from my husbands SA tomorrow or today! and very glad my doctor agreed to 21 day testing for me. She wants me to do clomid but my temp chart says I'm ovulating along with OPK's so I don't want to use such a harsh drug if I don't need to.

I'm 24 and a Nursing living in Michigan. My DH is 32. We've been haven't been using protection for about 2 years but actively trying for 13 cycles now. Got married this April

 

[littlelily]

Awww, yay! So nice to know you all a little better and glad we can stay here in our little haven to help each other through cos this ttc stuff is sure tougher than it looks!

Ok curly, when are you planning to test? We'll try and hold you to it!

Swimmy, that does sound a bit harsh to be on Clomid if you are o'ing on your own. Let us know how the testing goes.

Libby, get bding! How are the supplements? Feel like they are doing anything?

Ray, sounds like you have a lot going on but coping with it well my dear, fingers crossed for you big time.

Lilly m, how's the grapefruitgrapefruity bd going?!

Gotta, you ok? Any news or just waiting to o?

Mrsb, how was the wedding and when you testing girl?

Nelly, no harm in getting some bd in early doors

Hi ladies, nothing much to report for me, AF is due in about five days. I'm really hoping that July is my month- and all of our months! It certainly seems like many of my friends are getting pregnant at the drop of a hat. So nice to learn more about you all! A bit about me- I'm 26, my dh and I have been married for 2.5 years. We wanted to wait a while before ttc and I went off bc in March. We did the whole not trying, not preventing thing for a couple months and then this month I decided to start tracking ovulation and getting serious with it. I live in Texas and I'm a writer. I stocked up on red raspberry leaf tea for next month and I say bring it on July

 

[gottajones]

Oh, its really nice to get to know you ladies!!! What a fabulous idea!! For those who don't know, I'm 33. DH is 36. We live in VA. I'm a Mother Baby/post partum nurse and DH does branding and online marketing. We've been married for 11 years and we've been trying consistently (and monitoring ovulation) since February.

I love the idea of riding this out and not starting a new forum!

Cycle day 6... Just waiting to o. Baby dust ladies! Everything is crossed! xoxo

 

[swimmyj1]

Ok gals need your advise. So i'm feeling like a pretty horrible person. My DH today said he was nervous about getting the results back because he's worried he's the reason we aren't having any luck. I told him it didn't matter which one of us or both of us are the issue we will get through it (which is 100% true we will get through it together). However am I a horrid person that part of me hopes that if we do have a problem it is him? I already feel so ... defective for the MC and for trying so long.....

 

[CurlyRose]

Littlelily - I already tested this morning, there's little point trying to ban myself, I'm impatient and have some IC HPTs to use up before they expire (bought ready for planned TTC 18 months ago, before life got in the way).

Swimmy, I don't know how it feels to be in your position, but I do know that it's only natural to want the other person to be the issue, I doubt there are any couples who wouldn't feel the same way in the same situation and I can guarantee that in the same place I'd be hoping it was OH. Don't beat yourself up over this.

To add to my ss list, my boobs are now warm and bloody massive (for me) I have never known them be sore for so long and they've never been particularly warm. Trying to manage own expectations and failing!

 

[RayinNY]

Swimmy- don't feel horrible. Totally understood and have been there. I would say that there's positives and negatives of both sides- there's a proactive, empowered feeling of being able to do something when it's you (I like that I know I'm taking my Clomid on time and the drs can tell me how I'm doing when I go in for monitoring, I know there are clear next steps if/when something hasn't worked- I'm a little Type-A, though haha), but it's also nice to have someone else going through the treatment and to not have your body go through the ringer. Good luck with the results either way and know that you have SO many options!

Thanks Littlelily- like your idea of staying on here It's nice to have a fellow teacher friend!

Awww, yay! So nice to know you all a little better and glad we can stay here in our little haven to help each other through cos this ttc stuff is sure tougher than it looks!

[MrsB87]

Hi girls, just thought I would let you know know that I got my :BFP: today! I'm in total and utter shock!!!

 

[Libbystepof4]

Congrats MrsB!!! How wonderful!!!
Lilly, still taking all my stuff religiously! Feeling good!

 

[mininun1]

Congrats MrsB! It's wonderful to have someone on this thread with a bfp! Hopefully that luck spreads to the rest of us soon

 

[Nervous nelly]

Congrats Mrsb 🎉🎊🎉great news.

Swimmy - I d be the exact same 🙈 also think it would be a tiny bit easier for a man to deal with it 🙈that sounds bad but do u get what I mean, they might be a bit tougher than if it was me finding out.

Love staying on this thread and soooo lovely to read all about u guys.

I am 33, DH is 30 and got married in December ☺️ Together 10 years. On the 4th cycle TTC and like others my friends all got pregnant by looking at each other and we are still finding our way 😂praying July is the month the soilders find the route 😂👍🏻
