Hi everyone, it’s my first post on mumsnet, I spent a LOT of time reading through these threads when ttc my son and they helped so much.

Now I’m back ttc my second and it is only our second cycle and I am already much more desperate for it to happen than I was the first time around with my son 3 years a go.

I think it’s because it took us 10 cycles to conceive my son and I’m already heartbroken over it potentially taking that long (or longer) this time around.

Anybody else out there ttc their second baby and feeling the same anxiety? I swear I drove myself mad last cycle, it’s no wonder it happened really, I was borderline insane with googling, symptom spotting and even poas as early as 4dpo Confused

@L0ts it could very well be an implantation dip so a good thing, especially if it was a dramatic drop. What was your BBT today? If it was back up then either implantation dip or just one of those things, they always say to focus on the overall trend rather than individual temps.

@Borolass84 fingers crossed you covered for this cycle 🤞 Hopefully your doc has some answers or help for you xx

Kiaa · 04/12/2021 07:34

@L0ts aww still not out till Af shows up
Maybe it just stress it can happen just keep monitoring it may go back up 🤞

So I’ve now had a text message through saying I’ve got a telephone appointment with gynaecology on the 23rd. Not sure what this will entail as all my doc told me was that she would be referring us to fertility clinic.

10dpo and a huge temp drop to below cover line this morning, so not feeling all that positive anymore 😩 I did however have an awful night with my toddler and the boiler has broken (thankfully getting a new one fitted on Monday) so maybe that had something to do with it? God knows 😩

Kiaa · 02/12/2021 20:48

@Babyboom1990 maybe try pink dye or digital test if you can 🤞xx

L0ts · 02/12/2021 15:28

@Babyboom1990 The one looks negative to me but the one below is either positive or an awful dye run/evap! I’d get yourself a frer and test with that 🙂

L0ts · 02/12/2021 15:27

@WingingIt101 Utterly devastated for you 😔 I’m so sorry.

Take care of yourself and come back when you feel ready! ❤️

Hi ladies

I wanted to update you all, sadly I have been told our baby has died. I will have a D&C in the coming days.

I’m devastated and so will step away from this thread for a little while but wish you all so much luck and love x

Borolass84 · 01/12/2021 09:51

@Kiaa baby dust to you too good luck

Kiaa · 01/12/2021 01:52

@Borolass84
Good plan sounds good 🤞 I just entered fertile week 2nd flashing smiley

Kiaa · 01/12/2021 01:45

Borolass84 · 30/11/2021 22:26

@Kiaa now so dtd every other day since Friday to date to give it our best shot Smile

L0ts · 30/11/2021 21:37

8dpo tomorrow and suddenly tonight really achy around my pelvis, hips and thighs. Feeling a little like when I had my CP a couple cycles a go! Trying not to get my hopes up though!

Kiaa · 30/11/2021 03:02

@Borolass84
Aww that's annoying about your blood test
When is your next fertile window ?

Borolass84 · 29/11/2021 22:36

@L0ts we are 10months in. Gotta go back for bloods again as doctor arranged last lot for the wrong days Confused

Kiaa · 26/11/2021 20:31

@L0ts lots of wishes for you this month hopefully the 2ww goes fast x
End of next week is fertile window
We are trying adding honey to breakfast any old wife tail to get us through 😆

@kmbegs we are cycle 9 this time I know the feeling I didn't expect the months to keep rolling on
Hopefully a lovely gift of bfp's for Christmas for us all 🎅💫

kmbegs · 26/11/2021 20:03

@L0ts tell me about it - this is cycle 10 for me! 10! I can't believe it. We are just about to entire the fertile period. I am hoping this month will be more relaxed since Christmas will be a big focus and I could really do with a break from it all, but can't actually bear not trying. Fingers crossed for everyone this month.

L0ts · 26/11/2021 17:53

@kmbegs I got you! 😂

I really hope this is the month, I don’t think I can bare the disappointment much longer 😩

How is everybody else and where are you all at in your cycles? What month ttc are you on? I can’t keep up 😂

kmbegs · 26/11/2021 16:04

GrinGrin I meant cycle day 12! Sorry!

L0ts · 26/11/2021 11:17

@kmbegs Did you mean 2dpo? Only because 12dpo would take me back to being on my period 😂 I had another rise today so I think I’m about 3dpo 🤞🏻🤞🏻
