View Full Post

I wanted to make this for all the ladies out there TTC their first little one.
Let us come together and share in each others heartache and joy.

I feel so alone in my community because everyone I know has kids.

A little info about me.

Been TTC #1 again for 4.5 months. Started tracking this cycle.
Been not trying for 18 years but havent prevented either.
Was on this site in 2011 TTC #1 with my ex but our relationship ended in 2012.
Started TTC again in 2014 with my new bf but in 2017 after no success. I found out he cheated on me and got the girl pregnant.
January 2018 surgery to remove a fibroid that was like a natural IUD as the doc said.
Me the love of my life June 23rd and we basically have been trying ever since.
I'm two weeks away from 35 years old and he turned 38 in July. He does not have any kids and we both really want some.

AF ended Wednesday, so hubby and I started our “every other day” plan Thursday. Hopefully it gives a good result. I do keep forgetting to take my Pregnitude so I need to get into a better habit of that. We did move into our first house this week so that was exciting! Now to just fill it with the pitter patter of little feet

@Shay what about you? Did you get the hang of temping yet?

Ladies,

I am CD 6 on vacation forgot my thermometer, so, I'm just going to enjoy my time off and will start tempting when I get back home. Maybe some magic of Disney will run off on me and my SO.

I am starting to get the hang of it. Had a big spike up yesterday and it has stayed up today. Not sure if it me getting a cold or I ovulated. I have had a scratchy throat so leaning toward cold. But I have had cramping for the last two days now too. I am trying not to read anything into it though. If I did o then I will be out for this cycle since we haven’t bd in a while. My schedule got crazy and I haven’t been sleeping. I did start taking vitex as well so hopefully that is helping!

@ts so exciting to have your own home!! I can’t wait to get to that point!!

@bug jealous you are in Disney!! That is where we went on our honeymoon!!

Anything new with you ladies?

I think I ovulated this weekend based off of cervical mucus/position. Fingers crossed as I head into the 2ww.

This morning it was brown discharge and has almost disappeared. I did make an appt to get checked for January 7th. Since, it will be a year since my surgery I had.

Going crazy, my temps are low instead of rising my body is still spotting. I'm broken and this is not the time of year to fill down. I was on a Disney high and not caring about TTC but since returning from vacation my body is not acting right. My SO doesnt get in the BDing mood at all. I have the Christmas Blues big time.

Hi ladies, just thought I’d check in since it’s been a few days and we are heading into the week of Christmas.

I have had to stop myself from buying pregnancy tests at the store. I am approximately 8dpo and have had some sharp, twinge like feelings on one side. AF is due in a week. Trying not to get my hopes up on anything. Hubs and I will be leaving tomorrow to spend Christmas with his family in Washington and I’m hoping I will be able to just enjoy my time with them and not think about testing all week! I’m going to purchase the Ava bracelet if I don’t end up pregnant this month, hoping it can give me some insight on what’s going on.
