Ttc #2? (October bfp)

**KashyKash thanks. I'm sure I ovulated yesterday so I think I'll try it next cycle.

TWW is way too long!

Welcome to all the new people, I haven't posted in a while but have been watching. Sorry for the bfns but hopefully it's just too early. Think I'm ovulating today so should be starting the 2ww tomorrow.

@Elles85 I had acupuncture while ttc first time round and this time. First time I went 2-3 times a month to improve my energy levels. This time she only suggested once a month at ovulation time. I think that's the most important time when ttc. First time round I got pregnant after a month of acupuncture. I was convinced it had helped as we'd been trying for a year by then. This time it hasn't worked it's magic yet! Fingers crossed for everybody this month x

Age 39
DS 3
Cycle 13
Af/bfp due October 10th

@Stee1 Ovia is telling me to test before AF too...must know I'm a POAS addict

AF/BFP due Monday ovia says to test friday? Not really any symptoms had sore boobs since 2dpo and creamy lotiony type cm today x

Hello all I've not posted In a while as it's been the first week of my cycle and I try and use that week not to think of ttc as there's not much we can do till af leaves.

In fw now so DH just popped back for a quickie, won't get chance now till Friday and I think I will ovulate Saturday if same as last month.

Hope we get some more bfps coming in soon!

**Tryingfor2 Thanks. Its hard this baby making but your right we need to keep positive.

Sorry for the BFN but 11dpo is really early for a lot of women.

If I wanted to try acupuncture what point in cycle is best?

Sorry for the bfn's rhibee and elephant hopefully just too early.

I'm 11dpo today as well but won't be testing until after the weekend if af stays away.

Urgh sorry for bfns. Really hope it's just too early. Or perhaps you ovulated later? Do you chart and know your ovulation date?

It's easy to say try to wait to test but I know what I'm like and I'm sure I'll be testing madly when the time comes. 5dpo last month was a real low point!

Only CD5 here so all very dull!

I cracked and poas too @RhiBee29 BFN here too. Fingers crossed it's just too early for both of us.

BFN it's very early to POAS but I couldn't resist. Bloody instagram now informs me that another Kardashian is preggo...makes me want to cry and scream at the same time!

@RhiBee29 my cycle is a bit all over the place too - I'm still bf DD, but it's been 25-26 days. Good luck if you do decide to test tomorrow - I guess at 11dpo fmu might show a +ve? Here's hoping!

@ElephantAndBird my cycle is slowly coming back to 28 days which would be tomorrow. AF predicted for Sunday. Cannot wait to POAS! So tempted to test tomorrow morning which will be 11dpo but trying to hold out

Am driving myself mad symptom spotting. I'm due on the 2nd so I think I may poas on Friday just to see. Not expecting anything but might help me to relax a bit over the weekend!

Been to the doctor again and having blood test on Thursday. After feeling fed up yesterday and AF this morning, I'm on a mission today. GP told me to stop with the ovulation tests as all they bring me is anxiety and she thinks they aren't they great anyway. I've always been slim but I've neglected my fitness because well I hate it! It does lift my mood and improves your chances so... back to it I go... Positive vibes only ✌🏼
@elles I got a baby shower invite yesterday and even that got me. I'm sorry for the mc. I'm hoping for good news for you soon. For everyone soon.
♥️

**RhiBee29 sorry about mc. For me with baby 1 I conceived first month of trying and naively thought that would happen again but here I am after trying for over 2 years and nothing but remaining positive this could be our month.

Fingers crossed for BFP all round

@Elles85 I was at a baby shower yesterday too it's so tough. I'm finding the ache for baby 2 is much stronger than baby 1. It's hard when I keep thinking if I didn't mc I'd be so many weeks now. Anyway onwards and upwards! Let's hope for lots of bfp's in October

Yeah it was and as much as I'm happy for others I can't help feeling like it's never gonna happen. Anyway don't mind me just feeling sorry for myself.

Yey POAS stick buddies

Elles85 yey testing buddies

Oh really! Must of been too much for you, I am sorry that happened.

I'm the same too. I left a baby shower early yesterday, it was a bit more then I could handle.

**bunnieboo91 my AF is due 9th so I'll be testing around the same time

Welcome CoconutGal and Beek84

I am the same with people telling me they're pregnant and trying not to get upset about not being pregnant. I have to wait eleven days now to get my bfp hopefully.

who's testing around the 6th October?

I know @beek it's so hard. One of my closet friends is so excited about her pregnancy and I'm so happy to share my experiences with her but I so badly want to be going through it now with her!
Positive positive positive! we can all keep everything crossed (except legs) for a good month x

I know what you mean beek. It's only cycle 2 for me but took a year with DD so not expecting it to be quick. It's a proper ache for another baby.

Seems tonight was a good time to join this thread as no sooner had I posted than one of my friends announced she is pregnant with baby no 2! So happy for her but I just so wish I had similar news to share.

I know I am so lucky to have DD and I am thankful every day for her... And yet...it's like an ache...right enough of that - it's going to be a good month ladies - positive thoughts all round!

Evening everyone!

DH & I have a 10yr old DD, been TTC number 2 for 10 months with not even a sniff of a BFP. Blood tests were done last week, waiting on a ultrasound in the next few weeks. AF has been strange this month, light & no pains or symptoms. I'm now full of cold & struggling to shift it having had it now for 5 days.

Despite feeling rough, AF seems to have stopped this afternoon. DH & I have agreed no OPKs this time, just temping, cm checking & have fun with it.

Oh I should add my age shouldn't I. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I'm 26, DH is 29

I'm going to try and get an appointment at the doctors tomorrow. Ask for someone different. I used to have a lovely one who always helped but she bloody retired 🙄
I hate the waiting too! I over think everything!! I had period pains when first pregnant with DD and convinced that was it game over then. I waited a month to test because I was so scared I wasn't.
I've been on a real low today and felt like everything I touched turned to crap. Tried to keep busy with DD and made things worse for myself. Was tempted to lock myself in bathroom tonight and have a cry.
I agree on the drinking in moderation thing too. but enjoy yourself!!
