@GreenFlipFlop doing great thanks 😊 just in the newborn feeding bubble & learning to juggle 2 babies 😂 my 18month old has started to finally accept her 😂🙏🏼 mad you are 30weeks already! Hope you're feeling good.

@Indianna2006 so sorry for your loss 😢 everything crossed for you 🙏🏼

Izzyboo1234 · 21/06/2022 23:42

I’m so sorry for the loss of your babies @Indianna2006 😞I hope this month goes well for you xx

GreenFlipFlop · 21/06/2022 23:15

Oh that's so hard @Indianna2006 I hope you're doing ok? TTC is so hard. Please don't give up, wishing you all the baby dust, hope this month goes well for you! ❤️

Indianna2006 · 21/06/2022 14:45

@whatsthecraic91 can’t believe you have a 4 week old!! Remember when you got pregnant!
@GreenFlipFlop and you are 30 weeks. It’s mad!! Not long left for you! 🥰

Unfortunately for me I am still on the ttc train..it’s been 13 month slog now 😩
With it taking 11 cycles to fall which resulted in a mmc in April at 9 weeks. And a chemical loss straight after at 5 weeks. I’m starting to lose the plot.

I could have a 4 month old by now but alas I don’t even have a successful pregnancy and feel like giving up tbh..meh.

doesn’t help I’m in 2ww again

GreenFlipFlop · 20/06/2022 23:46

@whatsthecraic91 Ahhh hope you're getting on ok?!
Currently 30 weeks and looking forward to meeting little one soon!

Good luck to everyone this month!

LuckyMoonstone · 20/06/2022 19:42

CD16 here, hoping ovulation will be earlier this month. Having good signs already 🤞

whatsthecraic91 · 15/06/2022 13:24

Lovely to check in and see all the BFPs!!

Can we believe my DD is now 4 weeks old!

Hope everyone is doing well xx

Izzyboo1234 · 10/06/2022 20:55

Thanks guys!
Congratulations @Skylark1990 great news! Loving the positives

Margo34 · 10/06/2022 19:33

😢 I'm out, again. 2 consecutive losses. I've basically spent this entire year pregnant or experiencing loss. I'm heartbroken but numb to it both at the same time. Maybe I jinxed myself.

Congrats on your BFP @Skylark1990

lovesT · 10/06/2022 12:41

@Skylark1990 wow yay so happy to see this!! Really hoping this one progresses well ❤️ look after yourself!

Yes I've had my 12 week scan 😊 I'm 15 weeks today and the next scan is in July.

Keep me updated!!

Congratulations to anyone else who has had a BFP and good luck to anyone else still trying ❤️

Skylark1990 · 10/06/2022 09:38

Congratulations @Margo34 that's great news ! And exciting about your scan @Chanel05 I hope it went well. Sorry to hear you're finding things tough @Izzyboo1234 . Sending lots of baby dust and luck. TTC is such a test of patience and resilience sometimes.

I've actually just had a BFP too, 11dpo - did two tests this morning and some good solid lines so I'm feeling very happy! I tested at 9dpo and had a squinter on a FRER so the good line progression makes me feel reassured and more confident after the previous chemicals! Just praying it'll be a sticky bean. Feeling more confident this time 🥰

How are you all doing? @lovesT have you had your 12 week scan?

Anyone else ttc #2? Thread 2
Izzyboo1234 · 10/06/2022 09:08

@Chanel05 thank you!

How are you doing? I hope things continue to progress well - love my to hear 😊

Chanel05 · 06/06/2022 14:17

Congratulations @Margo34 wishing you a healthy pregnancy.

Wishing you lots of baby dust &
@Izzyboo1234

I'm 11+2 and have my dating scan next Wednesday. I've had two scans so far but still feeling a bit anxious.

@Margo34 congratulations, what fab news! Those symptoms sounds like a good sign.

@Endomummy it sure is, I’m sorry to hear you are having a not so great time. Would it be worth reaching out to the GP?

I long to be pregnant again, I am feeling really sad after our mc, still so recent. Feeling ready to ttc again, have decided not to track ovulation. We never have and we want to stick to the no pressure approach. I think realistically July will be the earliest time where we have a chance. Waiting for AF, not to try but I think it’s imminent I know my body signs.

Margo34 · 04/06/2022 20:29

Hello, me back again! I'm tentatively rejoining this thread following a BFP this week (after my MC in March). Keeping everything crossed this little bean sticks. I'm only 4w+3 but already feeling totes emosh, waves of nausea, peeing loads and have a very heightened sense of smell (and everything smells just gross)! 🤢

🤞🤞🤞

Congrats to all those who already have their BFPs and fingers crossed for happy outcomes for everyone waiting 🤞💫

Endomummy · 02/05/2022 13:34

Hi ladies please can I join the thread?
ttc number 2 for a year now but had surgery a few months ago for endometriosis and a polyp. Was told I would have best chances of success the first 6 months after surgery which is nearly up. 12dpo today and bfn so feeling pretty rubbish. Trying to stay positive but this ttc business is mentally draining isn’t it.

@IzzyBoo1234 congratulations! How are you getting on?

@Kitty901, I know the feeling. You will get there! Are you breastfeeding? Look into diet related things as making sure your body is getting what it needs is a big part of it x

Thank you. I’m okay thank you, not feeling very different. I hope you’re okay ?

Than you, yes i am seeing them this coming week.
Yes i will try be more relaxed and just enjoy my life, this has taken it over the past few months. X i hope i can though.

I hear you there, every waking thought it becomes so emotionally exhausting doesn’t 😞
good luck for your appointment!

I am just really upset this time, it is hubby's bday and that wasn't what i hoped for on his day. We tried everything so far and no luck and i blame myself for having such a short LP , i worry it will never happen. I always dreamed of 2 children, just worry my little one will be by himself. This month i feel worse than ever and cried so much. It is so difficult, i am grateful for my little one but somehow don't feel complete and feel like i will never conceive because of my short cycles 😭 i am sorry i probably sound ridiculous, i feel i need to just let it out!

You do not not sound ridiculous at all, you are allowed to feel the way you do. Nothing takes away from your precious LO and you’re allowed to feel disappointed.

Sorry if I have missed this but have you thought about going to the GP for a check up, my friend recently has. She was trying for over a year with no luck. They did a full ‘MOT’ turns out nothing was going on, so she completely re thought her approach. She stopped ovulation testing, temp checks etc and just went with it - she fell pregnant three months later. Doesn’t help I know, but worth a thought may be.

you really are allowed to feel how your are, and talking about it will help you to process how you’re feeling.

Happy birthday to your husband!

Amazing news, congratulations! Hope we all get our BFPs soon x I am on month 5 now and really losing patience already, ds1 took 6 months

Thank you!
I have everything crossed for you that it happens soon. It can be a heartbreaking process 💐
