TTC #2

I’m using Ovusense and temps are showing that I likely ovulated on Friday, still waiting for it to confirm but chart looks good, meaning I’m 3DPO - any TWW buddies?
Tempted to test at 10 DPO even though I should wait, why do we do it to ourselves?!
Sorry to anyone who has had AF show up this month, sending lots of luck and positive vibes to get you through to next round x

Af has arrived.
Fingers crossed for next month!

I’ve bought a load of ovulation sticks - my cycle is around 33 days so I’m not sure when to start testing with them!!

@WingingIt101 I'm sure the advice should be to wait a day or 2. But I know if I were in your shoes I'd be testing. Just can't help myself!

@WingingIt101
Haha easier said then done 🤣 it so tough you feel a different symptom & it makes you go crazy waiting

If you can wait few days see how you go
Aww I know it really stressful and nervous testing and not knowing what your gonna get
Stay strong x

@Kiaa yes I need to stop myself testing early. And reading into every little twinge 😂

Sooo natural cycles said I was due on today (CD33) and it’s not happened.
But I’ve had loads of tummy cramp type feelings. Although I also usually get looser number 2s around AF (sorry!) and don’t have that.

Do I retest?? Do I wait a few more days?!?

Gah. I’m a grown woman. A mother. Why am I sat on my bed looking at a clearblue box like a scared 14 year old.

Good luck! Lots of O dust to you!!!
Yes, my cycles can be 50+ days but LP is usually the same, around 2 weeks!
This is only our first cycle this time round, but took around 18 months to have DD1 so I’m bracing myself for a long rocky road ahead! 😢
Let us know how you get on next few days! Xx

@Dav87 that's good news! How long can your cycles get to? Is your luteal phase usually the same length? I'm really hoping to get an opk peak tonight or tomorrow (testing twice a day around peak to make sure I catch it) then the tww can begin!

Hi, how is everyone doing today?
My BBT has confirmed that i ovulated this month, on Friday so that’s great news for us. Only Day 24 this month so that’s a short month for us 😂
So I’m now 2DPO and the waiting game begins! Is anyone else just starting the TWW?
Wishing BFPs to everyone ❤️

@RunningOnHope Hi welcome
Hopefully is a lucky month for you & happens faster sending baby dust your way 💫

Hi everyone, I'm also ttc #2, month 2 here. Due to ovulate in the next couple of days, just willing it to happen faster - we are using a donor so only get once chance a month! Hope its a lucky month for all

@has30 as long as nothing delays it I got the covid vaccine the other day, will start opk in few days
Oh yay definitely hopefully will make the 2ww go faster & not go crazy waiting haha

@Kiaa ahhh I will hopefully be ovulating next week too. We are really going to need to keep each other company in the TWW!

@Dav87
Welcome !! Aww I know the feeling my cycles used to be 30 days and now they keep extending each cycle up to 37
Best of luck this cycle 🤞

@L0ts
Fingers crossed for you this cycle 🤞 will hopefully starting ovulation next week
Haha think we all be crazy in the 2ww

@WingingIt101
Sorry to hear , maybe just wait to retest in a few days . I'm always avoiding taking pregnant test because of the disappointment:(

Hi everyone!
We are TTC #2, DD is 14 months. I have PCOS so it’s so difficult tracking ovulation, some cycles are over 50 days long 😞 I think I am ovulating in the next day or so though, fingers crossed!!!
Then it’ll be the dreaded TWW, will be good to have this thread to keep me sane with people who understand the stress!
Lots of BFP dust to you all! Xx

Hi @dobzyj! I had the same happen to me last cycle. My periods are pretty much bang on 28/29 days and for some reason last cycle I started spotting from day 26!!! I never spot either, it usually happens full flow almost immediately! It was of course just AF showing early. I hope it means something different for you though

@WingingIt101 I was exactly the same as you with number one. I never tested early and the month we conceived I waited until I was at least two days late before testing!! 😂 Last cycle however (which was our first ttc #2) I tested from 4dpo 🥴 Embarrassing 😂

Quick update, I’m due to ovulate tomorrow or the next day so praying we catch it this month 🤞🏻 good luck to everybody else and I’m sorry for those who got AF last cycle. Can’t believe I’m already about to be in that crazy tww again!!

Ahh @has30 with number one I had soooo much restraint. Waited til the day I was due on and having no other symptoms tested and got bfp

My cycle is just so disrupted. Longer, ovulation day all over the place.

I’ve been feeling due on but then they are similar symptoms to implantation so who flippin knows!!

@WingingIt101 if you're due on Sunday it may be possible it's just a little early still? When did you get a positive with your first? I didn't get a positive till I was 3 days late.
It's awful isn't it all the symptom spotting and the comparing to how you felt with your first.

Ok I caved. Not pregnant.

Feeling really down.
So silly really.

Cycle two. Only two. Goodness knows how ill be if we get to 10+!!

I’m using every single piece of willpower not to go test. I’m due on Sunday according to the app. But that’ll be day 33!

I’m using natural cycles. Although I get very distinct ovulation pain so I’m lucky there I guess!

My cycles are long and unpredictable though.
I’m convinced I feel like I’m due on. Funny tummy pains (not a pain not a cramp) slightly tender boobs.

I remember last time feeling like I had absolutely no pre period symptoms in the run up to AF being due.

@dobzyj it's just so difficult to tell isn't it! I just guess the only way is time! If it was implantation bleeding would a test be positive yet? I've no idea...

@WingingIt101 Hi! Isn't it weird how desperate you become for a second haha! I'm obsessed. Hopefully you'll catch nice and quick the second time too!

@WingingIt101 of course welcome!
Yes I know the feeling i'm worried about age gap getting bigger my daughter nearly 3
Aww everyone is different I know everyone says the 2nd takes longer then the 1st just have to stay positive 🙌
What cycle number are you on ? How are you tracking ovulation?

Hi ladies! May I join?! Feeling AF is imminent but in the same boat - TTC baby 2 and feeling so much more desperate. Cycles all over the shop and we conceived first go last time. Scared it won’t happen this time and surrounded by antenatal friends pregnant with second!
