TTC baby #2

There is no longer hope... AF arrived this morning on to cycle 4!

@Bellaphant I found them to be similar to af pains. Crampy and achy, most in the middle but towards my right side! Pretty sure I ov’d yesterday as temperature has crept up this morning 🤞🏼

@Char899, where do you get ov pains? Mine are going down now too. First month I've used them, pleased that they do seem to make sense (although my cm was deffo much 'better' over the weekend).

Well so far no sign of AF... took a Clearblue, another BFN. Not sure how to feel atm, the first time I got pregnant (before I got pregnant with DS) I got a negative test 2 or 3 days after I was due and didn’t get a positive til I was a week late when I realised my boobs were hurting. So there’s still hope I guess!

@Bellaphant I wish! But no it wouldn’t show yet as It would have only been 6 dpo and I had negatives before the positives and the positives are going back down again now. Bad ov pains today too and mega tired and groggy so def ovulation! DTD again tonight and then the 2ww begins again!

Could it be BC you are pregnant?? I'm sure I've seen positives on opks after....

@AngeloMysterioso fx for you that the bfn turns into a bfp like last time! Lockdown is definitely taking its toll on us too. Feel so down about it!
Do you think perhaps you ovulated later which might be why you don’t have your bfp yet?

I’ve had a set back. Should have been 6dpo today but carried on with opks as my temp didn’t spike. Had a blazing positive yesterday and today so my body obviously failed to ovulate after my previous positive opk and is going again! 1dpo tomorrow.. argh! It’s like doing a 3ww!! @MamaMoonbeam looks like I won’t be testing with you! 🙁

Evening all!

Well my 2WW is almost over, shark week due to start tomorrow... I’d promised myself with ttc this time that I wouldn’t test until my period was late (I spent a fortune on pregnancy tests last time) but I broke my rule this month as it was my DS’s first birthday the other day and I thought it would be a nice day to find out and/or tell DH. Two FRERs on Monday and Tuesday, both BFN . But when I was pregnant with DS I got a BFN on the 10th Feb and BFP on the 12th when I was due on the 14th, so I haven’t given up hope yet! We DTD on every day of my FW except the day that Clue predicted I’d be ovulating- sod’s law, DH was too too tired that day. I have noticed I’ve been mega tired and quite emotional the last few days- the emotions I’m putting down to DS turning one and lockdown happening again, and I have a slightly under active thyroid which may explain the fatigue but still... I’m hopeful!

@Bellaphant my opk came up strongest the day after my predicted ovulation too this month. Just carry on DTD for another day or 2. If you got positive yesterday you’ll likely ovulate today

I'm massively confused - by dates, the ovulation calculator said my fertile slot was Friday -weds, which matched up with my cm being egg whites over the weekend. But got my strongest opk last night - day 14.

Do we carry on with smep? Since Friday, we've only missed Tuesday.

Last cycle was 29 days if that helps

Ahaha that was so me last month, even though I knew I wasn't. Seeing as I'm still getting positive opks today, I think last month I tried too early.

@littleeggcup dont forget to google your cervix position and softness! 🤭🤭 I checked that earlier!

@MamaMoonbeam so am I! I just googled 'creamy white cm at 4dpo' 😂😂

@littleeggcup 😂🤣😂 so eager to test! I'm symptom spotting left, right and centre and only 3DPO 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

@MamaMoonbeam I don't know why I did a test this morning 😂 I knew it would be negative!!! Definitely going to try hold off until Monday!

@MamaMoonbeam haha! Stay strong! 💪🏻

@Char899 -is it test day yet? 🤭🤣😂🤣

@MamaMoonbeam haha yes! Definitely easier said than done... I’m feeling less anxious this month though a bit more relaxed! What will be will be 😌

Lol @Bellaphant !! Our men don't realise how good they have it with us letting them rest! 😂

Ooh @Char899 , should probably wait til then too... patience is a virtue ... apparently 🤣😂

@MamaMoonbeam I’m cd18 too! 3dpo! I’m not testing until next Wednesday that’ll put me at 11dpo (if I can hold out longer I will)

We did wed, Fri, sat, sun, Mon, so maybe 'peaked' too early, lol, will try tonight and then like Thursday and let the poor boy rest...

@Bellaphant that does make sense! I think I actually missed my peak.
Lines were darkening Sat night, quite quickly and then they were lighter on Sunday morning 🤷🏻‍♀️ might get another peak but have DTD thurs, fri, sun, mon, tues so there's plenty of seed up there... DP was not happy when I said there were probably dead sperm up there too... like a sperm graveyard 🤭🤭🤭 so I guess that makes me 2DPO now 😬😬

@littleeggcup I'm CD18! Test with meeeeeee! 😁 will I be too early to test on Monday with you? x

@MamaMoonbeam, I'm half convinced by bladder isn't strong enough to get a result! But I did get my two darkest last night and today, which makes sense because I'm cd14 today.

@Mommabear20, how you doing? You must be similar to me.
@littleeggcup, im impatient already on cycle 2, lol.

@littleeggcup aw, well you'll just have to wait and see.
I'm thinking that I'll ovulate today or tomorrow. Got ovulation pain, CM is watery and cervix is high and soft so 🤞🏻🤞🏻 we catch it.
Will make sure we DTD later and see how it goes. It's our first cycle TTC and im super anxious about it!
