@xoxo321 thank you! I've been nervous about making this decision - should we / shouldn't we - our little bubble is pretty lovely right now and I worry that it will ruin things. But then there's more of a draw to having another and I think we'd regret not trying further down the line. If it happens it happens... and it if it doesn't then so be it. But I obviously want it to happen NOW that we've made the decision! Patience is not my strong point!

What's your situation? X

@Ballygowenwater yes the pandemic is a bit of a disruption to all sorts isn't it? I had my first baby during first lockdown after having just moved to a new village, and to a house that needed lots of DIY. It wasn't a good time at all not being able to have husband at scans / all of birth etc and then to see anyone etc with my newborn. So I'm looking forward to a better second time round ... hopefully! 🤞

A bigger gap has lots of advantages in some ways and I have 6 years between me and my sisters (they are twins) and we have an amazing relationship / friendship now x

mightbeyesmightbeno · 08/11/2021 19:37

@xoxo321 yes my second and probably final !

Just back trying again after pandemic threw everything for a loop. Now looking at a 6 yr age gap between baby 1 and potential baby 2. 6 days PO today so will have to stop myself from testing til the weekend

mightbeyesmightbeno · 08/11/2021 19:22

@LillyWithTwoLs symptom spotting is a nightmare isn't it... literally every little ping pang pain I wonder if something is happening! Very sorry to hear about your losses and keeping my fingers crossed for you for this month x

mightbeyesmightbeno · 08/11/2021 19:20

@xoxo321 haha me too! Is it your first?

It's really hard when you get an idea in your head though isn't it? My DH and I talked about our second back in May and I stopped the pill. Life then threw us some hard times and now we are in November and DH only just back on board with TTC. But now I feel like I really want a baby next July or Aug which only gives me this cycle and next. Lots of reasons for wanting a baby around this time and just SO hopeful it happens! If not then I'll be a little disappointed but obviously still very happy when I do fall.

But it's hard to get a thought out I'm your head sometimes isn't it?! Come if baby no.2, this is your month!

mightbeyesmightbeno · 08/11/2021 18:33

@xoxo321 I'm just a day ahead of you as O was yesterday so we're both in for a few weeks!

mightbeyesmightbeno · 08/11/2021 18:30

@winkles23 very exciting times for you!

@xoxo321 of course you can! Sorry you're feeling down but I get it! That being said it only takes that one time to catch so keep your head up x

and massive congrats to @winkles23 Grin

LillyWithTwoLs · 07/11/2021 22:52

I am, I'm 40, first baby from IVF and DH only just this month on board with trying for another. Had several losses before we were lucky with our LO. We may end up doing IVF again but just decided to NTNP this month. Didn't use OPKs but now 6/7DPO and symptom spotting like a madwoman Blush

Glago2017 · 07/11/2021 22:37

@winkles23 huge congratulations. X

Congratulations!
That's amazing news!
Have you told your partner yet?

I'm just entering the 2WW, ovulation day for me was today I think so day 1 tomorrow! DTD today, kind of yesterday and then the day before. So hoping all good. I'd go again tonight but DH isn't having any of it :([/quote]
Yes, I've told him! We're both in shock at the moment and just so worried the bubble is going to burst.

Fingers crossed for you! It only needs to be that one time Smile
