10 Months TTC 🥰
Hi guys,
Just wanted to tell my story ☺️
*29, married 2 years, TTC #1*
I came off the pill in July 2019 after being on it for around 15 years. My periods were so irregular at 70 days apart, I was starting to think I’d never get back to ‘normal’. My last cycle was 42 days so a step in the right direction. When AF didn’t show this month, I assumed my body had taken a step backwards. I didn’t want to get my hopes up so I avoided testing for a while. I kept getting cramps (like period pains) so convinced myself AF was going to appear at any moment. Eventually my hubby suggested we test the next morning, so I spent the whole night preparing myself mentally for a negative test.
I first tested 47 days after the first day of my last period at around 7am. I was shocked that it showed positive so clearly straight away. I ran into the bedroom to wake hubby up and we just lay there completely overwhelmed. We just couldn’t believe it! I phoned my GP and got myself booked in with the midwife for 3 weeks time.
A few days have passed and I still feel cramps in my stomach and generally exhausted. Now at 50 days since my last AF, and we decided to test again just to be sure. So happy and relieved to see another positive test!
Now I need to find some patience to wait 3 weeks until my first appointment. We’re not completely sure when we’re due because my periods were so irregular. I’m guessing we’re around 4 weeks.
Good luck to anyone TTC, I wish you all the best. Fingers crossed for a smooth pregnancy! 🤞🏼
