Anyone TTC second baby?

Yay @MrsMyreton

My AF came a couple of days ago. Shall be non stop DTD this month!! Bring on Feb for no 2.

I’m 35 and DH 33.
I have a 2 year old conceived after 4 months
This will be our 4th cycle trying, currently CD 3. I normally ovulate CD 18 and have 28 - 32 day cycles.

Hi All! I'm on the February Bus too but quite similar stats to other on here so joining for company

My stats:
DH and I are both 33
DD3.5yrs - Conceived after a condom and MAP failure! SO technically 1st time actually TTC!
Month 4 actively trying. CP in November
29day cycle
due AF 3rd Feb - No testing until 10th Feb

We are really taking a laid back approach this month aiming for every 2nd or 3rd day through the month - I'm not looking at my app at all! Sex on schedule has not been sexy and I think we really just need to relax!

Congrats @MrsMyreton!

Hi ladies, please can I join too?
I'm 26, my little girl is 14 months. This is our second month of trying, I'm still breastfeeding so my cycles haven't been back long and haven't been too regular.

AF due on Saturday though so we will see!

Hi all just joining in the fun, I am 34 with a 4 year old too!

Been trying for number 2 for just over a year and no hope so far. I have pcos but still get regular periods, also been to hospital for lots of tests but not sure how much they can help me for number 2 as I've already got a child which is fair enough

Congrats @MrsMyreton - lovely news!

I’d like to join too please, 38 trying for number 2. My little boy is 16 months, took 8 months to fall pregnant with him and on month 3.

Hi all!

Hi there, I’m in a similar position too. Ttc baby number two. My little girl is nearly 1 (we’re up because teething is too painful) and we’re aiming for a small age gap 🤞🏻
Fell pregnant with her 1st month trying so really disheartened to be on second month of trying already with baby 2

Should say lovely not lonely people lol

How's everyone getting on? Huge congratulations @MrsMyreton!

So AF arrived on Sunday, like clockwork and as predicted by the Clue App! I've been quite impressed with the app and the clear blue ovulation sticks that have been in sync this month! Although it means we have a BFN I will be using both again this cycle. What I'm more impressed with is how I took AF and the BFN... Not sure if it's because I've been able to talk about our struggles with people (I didn't want people to know and didn't feel I could talk to my DH as I worried he would feel pressured / to blame... Similar to how I was everytime F arrived) and reading all these posts of lonely people in the same boat or the fact I'm trying to be more calm about it but I took it so much better. Random as that sounds. Yes I did have a little tear but not the big melt down I have had previously. I feel more positive going into this cycle and as always fingers are crossed for a BFP but I'm content with the fact that come what way it will happen. That's my hope anyway!! Here's hoping you lovely lot get your BFP soon!

Huge congratulations

Hi everyone can I join? I'm 34 and Ttc #2.
Dd is almost 17 months. Took us a year of ttc then i had an ectopic before getting pregnant the next month so not sure how much hope we have of getting pregnant again, but staying positive!

I'm on cycle 4 now, coming up to my fertile window. I temp and use opks(although they often seem high ) as oh works shifts so not always easy to dtd.

Trying not to get too excited but tonight I thought, I'll do one final test and then wait it out until after next period finally arrives... and I'm pregnant!

All too much for a Tuesday night

@Lnix thanks for your comment. I did not know some women surge for only 6 hours. I was testing first thing in a morning but clearly that wasn't effective. Glad I learnt something.
I'm now day 6 post due period and nothing (and another negative pregnancy test just in case) so that doesn't make it easy for working out when I'll be next ovulating.

@Lnix I'm CD2! Usually get a positive opk around CD 13/14. Really hope this is my month. Fingers crossed for bfp's all round!!! If not, next months I'm not even gonna bother tracking ovulation. Just gonna have sex every other day from CD8-CD18. At least I know I'll definitely be covered! Xx

Evening ladies, may I join your group? I'm in a similar situation to a few of you on here. I'm almost 34 conceived BB1 super easily without really trying, but BB1 is now 20 months and we've been actively trying for BB2 for over 6 months with no joy. Last month I started using ovulation tracking but got no positive result and now I am 5 days later than my expected period and nothing. Negative pregnancy test (more than 1 to be sure) so I am naturally freaking out there's a problem. My daytime sensible self says it's probably a one off, try ovulation tests for another month and if still no joy go see a doctor but evening me is having a freak out - obviously I am no longer ovulating and therefore will never have another child and life is ruined.

@Antihop in theory should sign off next week, but I’m worried it won’t happen. My company are a little brutal. Also I have my review the day that AF is due to arrive, so will be upset already if/when it happens.

@Lnix that's definitely one way of looking at it! Onto cycle 8!! I've got some preseed for this month, also trying to eat better and started taking ttc vitamins and will do SMEP. When are you due to ovulate? Hopefully this will be our month! Sending lots of baby dust xx

Oh no @meerkatmummy sorry to hear af is here. Such a disappointing feeling.

@Needallthesleep how far are you into your probation? I actually would have started ttc in my probation, but the organisation was making some staff cuts and I decided not to risk it. Luckily my job wasn't cut.
I don't think I'll get that test. I think I'd rather not know. I don't know when my mum had the menopause unfortunately. But I know it wasn't particularly early.

Did you make it to the gym @Lnix?
I'm trying to do fast800 diet. I've done it for the last 2 days (800 cals plus 16:8 time restricted eating). It's been so tough as I was to comfort eat so badly. Both because of period hunger and because of not being pregnant!

Sorry to hear about your miscarriage @Yoohoo16 how old is your child?

Hello 👋
We’re trying for number 2. I fell pregnant in October but miscarried at Christmas at 11 and a half weeks.
Super, super broody now so trying straight away.
