First Month TTC experiences??? 🤔

Question

This is my first month seriously TTC. It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions. And it isn’t over yet. AF is scheduled for next Wednesday. 
Anyway, my question is...for others who have been trying longer does the first month always make you feel crazy? Lol. One day I will symptom spot and swear I will be pregnant. Just wondering if others have felt sure their first month and ended with a BFN and AF. 
I’m thinking I’m just paying way more attention to every little detail and my mind is playing tricks.

Answer

Hi. Some advice for you if you don't mind taking it:
1. Don't symptom check. Lol it will drive you crazy and your mind will play tricks on you making youbthubk you have a symptom when you don't have it.
2. You more than likely won't conceive on your first month of TTC. It can take a few months to a year to conceive if you're healthy and nothing is wrong with you and your partner's reproductive systems. 
3. Don't stress yourself out trying to conceive. If you stress yourself out, you'll lower your chances of successfully conceiving.
4. Don't make sex a task just to get pregnant. Have some fun and dont dress it to much. Stressing it could take the fun out of sex for both you and your partner.
5. You can start taking Home pregnancy tests starting at 10-12DPO if you're impatient. I like to wait until my missed period though just so I don't drive myself insane with negative tests. Also waiting until you missed your period gives a m or accurate result and it also saves money. lol.
6. OPKs or Ovulation Prediction kits will be your best friend. You cant just rely on what the app predict are your fertile dates. The apps just estimate and guess based on your previous period history. OPKs will help determine when you are ovulating so it shows you your window to bd (baby dance aka sex). 😀
7. Implantation bleeding is actually rare. It is a symptom of pregnancy, but it is rare. Not every woman will have it. If you start spotting, you are more than likely going to get your cisor for AF.
8. Don't let yourself get down if you have a negative test I you decide to test early. You're never out for the month until AF shows her ugly face.
9. Don't get discouraged if you get a negative test. There's always next month.

Answer

I did get pregnant on my first month ttc after I stopped the pill. However it ended in a chemical pregnancy (which are very common) and there’s nothing I could’ve done to prevent it. Yes, actively ttc will drive you insane. But it’s kind of interesting to learn more about your body and the process.

Answer

I didn’t get pregnant the first month after I got off of birth control but I had a bunch of strange symptoms. I think it was just me coming off birth control. But the very next month I did get pregnant! Unfortunately, it ended in miscarriage, but warning that if you don’t get pregnant the first month- your body feels weird off birth control

Answer

I’m in the same boat. However I have just started my fertile window in our first month ttc. Best of luck!!!
