CD1 here, starting a new thread for those who are hoping to get a BFP in May for a January/February baby 🥰

This is my cycle 3 trying for #2. I've got an 18mo old son.

Oh and we're going to Alton towers for 3 nights from the 20th so will have DS in a hotel room with us 🤣 @Catred4 hopefully you have a smooth ride this month ✨

Hello!

I'm just due my period and set to think about starting next cycle. I had a pregnancy scare last month but DH and I were both very disappointed so think we're going to start trying. We have a 18 month old son atm.

I remember ttc being very stressful last time - I had a short luteal phase but in the end it only took us 6 months - so a surprise would have been nice. Good luck everyone!

Checking in! CD7 of cycle 4 TTC #2. Starting OPKs this month and DP has resolved to go to GP if we haven't caught by cycle 6 for his issues. DS is 4 next Tuesday which is likely to be around the beginning of my FW this month. It's all happening here 🤣

Hi! Also hoping for a BFP in May! I’ve just had a chemical so think I’m on CD3 but don’t really know how my cycle is going to go after the chemical. Hopefully goes back to normal but anyway! Starting to track with OPKs this month so fingers crossed. We have a one year old already. Nice to meet yous! 💖

Hi! It'll be cycle#1 for baby#1 for me - I think test dates will be around 3rd week of May.

@catred4 getting caught cycle 1 would be the dream but we are trying not to get our hopes up for it. I've recently seen a couple of my friends experience a MC and one having IUI so it make me a little anxious about ttc. We've given ourself a 3 month window but then we are due to get married so we would have to wait until later in the year. It would just be so special if we had a 'baby on board' for the wedding.

Oh I can imagine having a toddler around keeps you very busy! Good luck to you and let's hope the next couple of weeks fly by.

@Gummybear10 hi! Nice to meet you. Oh well done, we did the exact same when we were TTC my first 2 years ago and we managed to catch first cycle which was amazing! I've been a bit less prepared this time as it's harder to remember these things with a toddler 😂 good luck!

Hey
First time posting.
We are cycle 1 trying to for our first.
Currently on CD4 but these days seem to be going so slowly! Will be nice to have someone to talk to it about.
Had 3 months of 'preparing' the usual eating healthier, tracking my cycles and his/her vitamins (when he remembers!).
