New thread for those of us now trying for the first babies of 2024, may we all be lucky this month!

I'm CD1 today of cycle 6 ttc my second.
Had a chemical at the end of February and lots of illness in March so revved up to give this month all I've got!

Hi, recognise you and a few others from the December thread.

Sad to see you here but also like you say, good to have a few familiar faces and a reminder it’s normal for it not to happen straightaway!

Im hoping this month will be the one, the sun is shining and im taking it as a good sign so far.

We've got this @Mushroo! The sun is shining and I'm praying for a miracle. I even done a wish in a fountain yesterday lol xxxx

I'm joining you all and straddling the Dec 2022 thread. Currently 7DPO and if this month is bust, I will be due on 20 Jan 2023.
So many familiar names, I'm sure I have spoken to you all at some point.. I'm equally sorry to see you here and selfishly happy to have friendly "faces". The TTC journey is just heartbreaking for us all, and I feel for everyone one of you. Sending you all babydust! Xxx

Thanks @TunnocksTCake . Sorry to hear that you had a tough ride with your first - having a baby definitely hasn't been as easy as my school made out! Wish that as soon as you got pregnant that there was some sort of sign on your body that said baby loading or something πŸ˜….
Wishing baby dust to everyone!

@TunnocksTCake it really does! Sending baby dust to everyone this month

Classing yesterday as CD1 as the heavy bleeding started, hopefully ovulation isn't delayed 🀞🏼

Un7breakable · 07/04/2023 07:57

Hello. I'm 35 and ttc#1. On cycle 3 just waiting for ovulation after a weird cycle. Baby dust for all.

TunnocksTCake · 07/04/2023 07:48

@Babyhopeful23 I saw about that moon water in tiktok! Hope it works for you!! πŸŒ•

@Savvy21 sorry you've had such a hard ride, I had similar with my first and it's heart breaking. I found these threads invaluable first time round when I was finding it so hard so I hope we can help you through πŸ’•

@Angelselevenx so sorry about your chemical, it sucks! Fingers crossed it's a lucky month for you.
Hi to everyone who's joined 😊

I take a whole host of things haha, pregna plan which is a multi vit, evening primrose up til ovulation for CM, vitamin B6, magnesium glycinate, omega 3, and starting with NAC this month. Oh and vitamin D spray. DH takes well man conception and he was taking black maca but it made him too frisky (his sex drive is NOT a problem but if it were this is a good one to take! πŸ˜…

Hi,
Mind if I join? I've read the threads but never been brave enough to join one. This is cycle 17 of TTC #2. Had DD in April 2020 - wanted a 2 year age gap but had a mmc in March 2022 and an ectopic in December 2022 so here we are. Hoping that joining the thread will give me a bit of luck.
@Babyhopeful23 Wish I'd seen your post earlier as I'd have definitely put a glass out! Need all the help I can get!

Mushroo · 06/04/2023 22:51

Babyhopeful23 · 06/04/2023 22:46

@Angelselevenx well you need to drink the water in the morning so I assume it would need a lid or it might have some added extras πŸ˜‚Its worth a shot!! Moon babies πŸ‘ΆπŸ»

My glass of wine may have gone to my head but I’m also tempted πŸ˜‚

I said to DH earlier that the moon is huge so maybe it’s a sign.

Moon babies really made me laugh πŸ‘½

Angelselevenx · 06/04/2023 22:38

@Babyhopeful23 does it have to be a jar or can I use a standard drinking glass? Don't tempt me I'm about to and do it 🀣

Mushroo · 06/04/2023 22:32

Hi @TunnocksTCake joining after your posts on the December thread! Depending when I ovulate I’ll be due 31 December or 1 Jan so figured I’ll straddle both.

I hope you get your β€˜starting a thread’ luck!

Babyhopeful23 · 06/04/2023 22:27

Hello!!!! I am on CD6 of Cycle 2 TTC #2.
it’s a full moon out and I’m not into any moon stuff at all but I am part of a yoga WhatsApp group and the instructor sent a message about putting water into a glass jar and leaving outside in the moonlight for fertility. I probably sound crazy but my water is outside πŸ˜‚

Giles1008 · 06/04/2023 20:47

@Angelselevenx I’ve been taking the pregnacare conception and additional Vit D. My OH isn’t actually taking anything, maybe I should consider it. I took folic acid for the three months before as part of the pregnacare but it seems to have lengthened by cycles which is abit annoying.

Bellabeemarie · 06/04/2023 19:50

@Angelselevenx yeah hopefully the process isn't drawn out too much 😩 they want my fiancee to go for a tests too so he's got a app with the gp at the end of April... I've just ordered preseed for this cycle 🀞 xxx

Angelselevenx · 06/04/2023 19:38

Is everyone taking pre natal vitamins? And is your OH taking anything? We're going onto cycle 3 and I'm sure we caught cycle 2 with the help of vitamins (and BBT/OPK). Would be good to know what other supplements people take? I have the fertility vitl subscription and my OH is on the wellman conception x

Giles1008 · 06/04/2023 19:37

@Endofteatherandthensome I stopped BF with my LO in January and it finally seems my period are back to some normality between 28-34 day cycles but I think that’s regular!

I’m nervous about the TTC and the tiredness, our boy is a good sleeper but I’m just knackered running round after him all day!

Where are you in your cycle?

Angelselevenx · 06/04/2023 19:37

@Bellabeemarie thanks hun, I'm sure we're all going to get our BFPs soon 🀍🀞🏼 I seen you're being referred to fertility testing soon, hope you get some answers. xxx

Bellabeemarie · 06/04/2023 19:34

@Angelselevenx hey hun sorry to see you back on the ttc train ❀️ I hope you get your BFP again soon xxx
