Anyone ttc baby #2?

Hi everyone,

I'm new here, ttc baby #2 (1st cycle) and already driving myself wild with the tww. I wondered if anyone else is in the same boat?

I was so relaxed about baby #1 that the constant nagging thoughts about am I / aren't I are completely new to me and are making me feel anxious with symptom spotting.

Thought I'd see if there is anyone to talk to on here as my husband is quite matter of fact about there being nothing we can do to find out except for being patient - I know, he's infuriating right.

It'd be great to buddy up if anyone else is in a similar position.

Get thee to the July 2016 Babies group Peyia ! I'm sure they are lovely because I've pre-emptively read the entire thread and they are all in the same boat.

I hope to join you by Friday/Saturday :) Thanks for all the comments. OwlinaTree it sounds like we are in a similar position, I hope we'll both have BFPs by the end of the week.

Fingers-crossed for everyone else still waiting or trying Cake Flowers

beckslovestimmy · 10/11/2015 21:37

Come over to JULY 2016 Peyia. We're a lovely lot just like these ladies.

Peyia · 10/11/2015 19:35

Hoggle hope AF arrives soon!! Waiting is so annoying!

Jp get shagging!!!

I'll be stalking the thread for more bfp. Looking promising for gx and thirdthoughts - sorry if I missed anyone close to testing! I'm on a phone so difficult to see the thread whilst typing!

Thanks for asking jp. The nausea has subsided now that I have emergency nuts in my bag. That seems to help. I seem to have pinkish when I wipe but I think that's still implantation. Just keeping everything crossed still. I'm a bit scared to go to the preggers board!

Hope you're all well

XxX

OwlinaTree · 10/11/2015 19:31

Boo hoggle. Hate a late af.

Testing Friday if no af. Dh thinks it's on its way, I'm not sure. He's probably right though, can't believe it would happen on cycle one after the long time it took previously!!

jp0303 · 10/11/2015 19:16

It does feel like a bit of a standstill when AF is clearly on her way but hasn't arrived yet, feel for you Hoggle.

Good luck everyone!

CD34 here, no AF yet but it's looking as though it will start at any point. I just wish it would get the fuck on with it, I'm wasting time here!

jp0303 · 10/11/2015 18:35

Ooh I'll be checking in tomorrow to see your results Gx, keeping fx it's a BFP for you! I'm on cd10, so gearing up for a shagathon and hoping this is the month that makes a baby.

OwlinaTree · 10/11/2015 17:22

Hi guys, I'm still waiting to test. AF due today, no sign yet, but going to wait till Friday to test. I was quite convinced I was pg yesterday but not so sure today although I'm so tired! But I'm always tired!

jp0303 · 10/11/2015 17:05

I know what you mean about it being a fresh start, it's a annoying at first and then exciting to start all over again. At least that's how I feel this month, next month I might go crazy again! Get yourself a treat sorted for entertaining AF WineBiscuitand best of luck for next month.

Hello everyone - I haven't posted for a while and see there has been more BFPs! Congratulations! I have tried to be a bit more laid back this month as found it very stressful the first month in the 2ww. I think have just started with AF - was five days late last month and now is 5 days early. Usually I am completely regular so I really do despair.. In some odd way its a relief to see AF as it feels like a fresh start to try again. So I am onto round three ding ding!

Fingers crossed for everyone still left to test.

jp0303 · 10/11/2015 15:36

Mmmmm I love Baileys Figgy, that can be my treat for if AF arrives at the end of the month!! Nothing like planning ahead!

Thirdthoughts I am overly invested in your test this weekend - it would be amazing after last time and I really hope you get your BFP. Good luck.

How's the nausea Peyia?

ThirdThoughts · 10/11/2015 15:22

DC1 had a late July due date, though was born at the start of August at 41+1. I'm sure we only tested at the beginning of December that time! Because of the long cycles I waited till after the longest recentish cycle date before testing.

I found repeated BFNs to be too sad to do the early testing.

ThirdThoughts · 10/11/2015 15:15

I've no idea what cycle day I'm on unfortunately. My last period was several months ago and I hadn't started making a note of it as we only decided to start TTC in the last couple of months?

I had problems with long irregular cycles before my first pregnancy and my periods only started early this year and haven't been regular (still breast feeding).

DH and I have decided to get the test on Friday if AF doesn't turn up so test Fri/Sat? as that's about 2 weeks from when I started to get symptoms and I was wanting to give AF time to turn up as I hate BFNs after TTC DC1 for a very long time. So may find I'm between 4 and 6 weeks pregnant? and we were very, very, very lucky to catch the first egg? Grin

Unless I'm imagining all the symptoms. Confused

Loki17 · 10/11/2015 13:40

Good luck everyone waiting to test xxx

Gx91 · 10/11/2015 10:15

Fx for u third thoughts X
What cycle day r u on ? Really hoping to see more BFP soon
When are u going to test ? Xx

ThirdThoughts · 10/11/2015 09:32

No sign of AF here feeling hopeful

I was sick yesterday morning, but it was when I was trying to swallow some tablets which have made me sick before I was likely to be pregnant, so inconclusive have been feeling a bit nauseous on and off though.

Gx91 · 09/11/2015 21:23

Figgy - are ur cycles always regular ? I missed positive OPK last month as my cycle ended up being a long one , so tested every second day this cycle until I got my positive line !
I must say chocolate and baileys sounds amazing !
If my AF arrives im heading to asda for a bottle ! Grin lol xxx

Figgygal · 09/11/2015 21:01

I've written this month off I haven't had a positive opk temp change or any other indications of ovulation. I'm on day 15 will be on AF in 10 days and then I'll make the most of the run up to Xmas with chocolate baileys Grin

Gx91 · 09/11/2015 19:01
