Hey Im 17 and my girlfriend is 16 we recently thought she was pregnant and got really used to the idea. But after taking the test and seeing that she wasn't we were both pretty disappointed and have now started trying for a baby. We have thought about it long and hard and its what we want(so please dont give us the usual too young or its really hard talk, cheers :wink: ) and decided it would be nice to talk to people on this forum. So just saying hi nice to meet use all :wave: and hopefully talk to use soon.




TTC :cheer:
 
Hi

Nice to meet you. My dad was 17 when my brother was born and 19 when i was born. He was a great dad so no hard talking from me. He did tell me however, that it retrosopect, it might have been too early BUT he did a fab job!!

Cool thanks a lot. I should also hopefully have a healthy income lol(if all goes well). You got any getting pregnant tips? ^_^
 
There are loads of tips on here. The basic ones are.

1. Find out when your girlfriend ovulates. It is sometimes around 14 days before her next period is due to start. You can get cheap testers from ebay which tell you if she is ovulating.

2. Have sex from a few days before you gf is due to ovulate until a few days after.

3. I would say make sure she starts to take folc acid NOW.

4. Maybe start to take it easy on the alcohol front and if you smoke its best to stop.

Thats the basics i think
 
Thanks did 1,2 & 4 lol. Whats the folic acid for? And what foods would i find it in?
 
Hi

You can google Folic Acid and loads of info will come up. Its in beans etc but really she needs to start taking the tablets now before she gets pregnancy. It can reduce the chance of any future day having spina bifida by a whopping 70%. So all docs recommend when you start thinking of ttc you take it.


I have had personal experience of this. I had a pregnancy that i had to end as my baby had bad spina bifida. So please it is a real problem and it does happen to people. Its only a few pence from boots and well worth it.

Thanks a lot we'll definetly start gettin them. Im really sorry for you, and good luck this time round. :)
 
Thanks. I dont want to keep going on about my loss for any kind of sypathy just to make sure everyone knows that it can happen. So folic acid is a must.

Sarah
 
We've already checked prices on the boots site and shall be purchasing it today ;) thanks sarah.
