35+ TTC #2, #3...

Wow, that’s speedy! Congrats coffee.

Can I hop on board? I’m 35 and TTC#3, with a 7yo and a 3yo. It feels nuts to be thinking of going back to nappies and newborn days, and DH would happily stop at 2, but here we are anyway. I will be overseas with work when I ov this month so there’s only so much we can do .

Whoop!! Congratulations Coffeeandcake! :) x

Thank you, so excited. Fingers crossed it stays nice and cosy in there!

That in NOT faint
Congratulations!!

Its a bit faint but I think its there !

Oh! I will most certainly be poas in a few days
Spent £10 on a FRER last month (2 in the box)
What a waste of money 😫

I think Im on CD 25, it is such a rollercoaster and I have zero willpower! I try to be logical about it and wait until a missed period but then again I really want to try to poas and deal with any disappointment next week!

@Coffeeandcake1 which CD are you on?
I am only 21 and certain it wont happen this month
Starting to feel positive about just having one child
Then next week I will be upset at period
Bloody rollercoaster

So I am trying hard not to poas too early! Im 11 dpo, is that too early to try testing with a One Step test?!

Congratulations Frances!!
Hope everyone else is well :)
AF finally showed up for me today making this a 54 day cycle!! Fingers crossed my body is going to settle down in the next few months so we can concentrate on making baby #2!

Well done @Coffeeandcake1

I need to start poas to check for ovulation tomorrow. It is exhausting 😫

Sorry ladies I changed my name I am Hopity 😀
@FrancesV83 massive congratulations!
@pinkiebrain82 sorry to hear, it can be a very upsetting time. It took me a while to get pregnant first time and I wasn't always ovulating. I was overweight and lost a bit and maybe that help but I guess I will never know. I think I should try that again.

You are more than welcome to post here but I think most of us already have children so I wonder if you will get more support in a TTC thread for first babies, just because I remember I struggled a lot hearing from people that already had. Not sure this makes sense

Hi, Im 35 and currently ttc #2. According to the Flo app, I am ovulating tomorrow so have been dtd every day for last three days (every other day before this).
Then its the dreaded two week wait!

Hi - first ever message on here so i am sorry if this is in the wrong place but I wondered if anyone has any advice. Feeling very down at the moment tbh. I'm 36, overweight and my husband suffers from anxiety and depression....... it's a great mix. We have been trying for nearly to get pregnant but no luck. I know this isn't a huge amount of time but my periods are just awful and have resulted in having to take sick days due to the heaviness. My husband has a stressful job and the majority of my friends were very lucky and got pregnant easily and don't really understand. I just feel like I can't really speak with anyone about these things and it quite depressing. Anyone had a similar experience or have any advice?

That's brilliant! So pleased for you

I had my BFP on Christmas Day, praying it’s a sticky bean!

How is everyone doing? Any testers? I'm out I know my body too well after 4 children. Just want my period here now (due on the 6th).

Thank you Hope!
It was an amazing day! My 12mth old is currently teething terribly and I’m wondering what on earth am I thinking wanting to do this again! Lol!
I stopped the pill 6wks ago, had my withdrawal bleed but now AF has gone awol so I’m actually hoping for a period so I can get back to normal!

Can I join?
I’m 35 TTC #2, had a chemical pregnancy at the end of November and been dtd regularly ever since. AF due on the 26th so every day I’m praying not to see blood!!

Ava is a fertility bracelet which can help double your chances of conceiving. I'm so impatient I want this now. Trying my hardest not to start a crochet blanket

Crikey @WatchingTheWheels85 that is some serious TTC! I'm knackered with every other day, lol! I Started testing around CD 8 or 9 I think. I've used clear blue, cheapies and boots own. Always neg! When I eject the clear blue one out of the socket it did show a darker second blue line at around CD11 or 12 but I still just got the circle. Now they are just one definite blue line.

What is this ava?

@Peaky1 when did you start testing with opk? I got my flashy on cd 9 and static on cd 11. I think maybe I have had sex too much Every day from cd5 then twice a day from cd9. I'm taking q10 and was drinking grapefruit juice from cd1 to increase ewcm. I'm seriously considering getting the ava next month and maybe trying acupuncture. Yes I'm obsessed! Funnily enough I never take a pregnancy test early too scared of getting addicted I have only ever taken one 2 weeks after a missed period

Hi all!

I'm TTC #3 and I'm 39. 2 sons aged 6 and 3.

@WatchingTheWheels85 I have a feeling I might've missed my O day. I'm now CD18 (cycles usually 27-30 days) and still getting negative OPK tests! Period is due 3/4 Jan. Been having sex every 2 or 3 days for a couple of weeks so that's okay. I'm just getting annoyed at my stealth egg! Where are you?!

Oh I don't know about that, I never tried in the past it just happened. Ideally I would love another two but it depends on how long it takes ttc, I was pretty cut up it didn't happen straight away on cycle one which is crazy
