Whose trying to conceive baby no2 this year?

It’s a minefield!

I use two apps, Flo and Premom.

Premom has me ovulating today, Flo says tomorrow. Based on a static smiley face on my Clearblue digital tonight (though it was negative at 8am) and the Premom tests not having me hit a peak I think Flo is correct.

I’m going to test again at 10pm before bed as I’m convinced I’m going to get my surge overnight.

@Bubblesandtroubles you’re stronger than me if you can wait to test once your period is late! I have no chill and know I’ll test before. With my first I just knew I was pregnant when I tested two days before my period so I think I’ll get to that stage this month and cave 😅

I'm another one not great with ovulation tests! I kind of gave up on them this month so my dates are all a bit hazy.
I actually successfully forgot about things for some of this TWW but approaching the end now so my sanity is becoming more questionable! Definitely got sore boobs, v.tired and been emotionally unstable today- hardly determinative either way though...
Depending on which App I look at im expecting AF tomorrow or Wednesday. Going to dig deep and try and wait til Wednesday if no unwanted arrival before then... 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Wyewaving

I find ovulation tests confusing too, I only started about a week ago because I haven't had a period since my chemical in august and I thought it might provide some clarity.

I think I may have ovulated based on the results about 6 days ago. Not sure how long to wait before testing now 🤔

So sorry @Swirls346. I’d say it must be a positive that it can happen naturally. Hopefully the next cycle is more positive for you.

I’m due to ovulate today or tomorrow but I’ve still not had a peak on OPK so who knows what my body is doing. I’m CD15 today, last month I had my peak on CD14, prior to that it was CD16, then CD15.

I find ovulation testing so confusing as some advice is test with FMU but other places say to only test between 10am and 8pm 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’ve had some symptoms I had with DD and with MMC earlier this year i’m 13dpo and a stark negative so presume AF is on the way i’m gutted I really thought it had happened this month 😢😭

Sorry to hear that @sunflower1988 Good plan. I’m at a wedding today so going to let my hair down and enjoy all the cocktails before next week! 🍸

@Swirls346 thats really hard. You’re right to be positive though in that you can conceive naturally. I know a few that have had IVF before and then gone on to have a baby naturally. Hopefully next month will be your month.

Thanks @sunflower1988 , pretty broken because it's our first ever natural conception. First born is ivf. But I suppose it's a good sign it can happen naturally ??

@Swirls346 so sorry to hear that,same happened to us in the first month of trying for number 2. Hope you're OK x

@Cressie2 no luck, AF came today. Disappointed,wine,chocolate and strictly tonight might help though! How about you?

Unfortunately started bleeding this afternoon :(

@Swirls346 huge congratulations! Wonderful news!

@deliwoman1 I am in exactly the same position as you and have been having double espressos all week of my period 😂 Think I will limit myself to one tea a day next week..

Congrats @Swirls346 And good luck!

I’m due to ovulate early next week. Already struggling to be positive.

Just wondering if anyone is giving up caffeine entirely? I did last time, but this time due to work I’ve been having the odd cup in the morning and when my brain won’t switch on. Idk how much of an impact it has on conception…

Back on the TWW band wagon again! euch i hate this part

So I got my first positive yesterday I was 2-3 days late. It's not very dark though x

How’s everyone getting on? Have you tested yet @sunflower1988 Thinking of you all! X

Had a chemical on the 15th august and still haven't had a period so have finally ordered some ovulation tests, took one last night and it said I was ovulating I think?

So trying again properly now

I read somewhere that even after a CP you go through a postpartum period whilst your body sorts its hormones out, which might explain some of the low moods I had.

@KM8 @Mummysparrow 😞 so sorry to hear this too and hope you’re both ok. We can do this ladies. Onto the next month we go xxx

So my period has just arrived - Onto another month 😔

@Cressie2 that's a helpful message I need to remember for myself!need to remember to be more in the moment. Fingers crossed for next month!
@KM8 I'm now 6 days before AF and just got a bfn 😔 so tough isn't it why can't we just know! I guess until AF comes there's still hope x

@hopingfor23 welcome 👋🏻

@KM8 Loads of women get BFPs the day or two before their period so don’t lose hope. I was googling the same over the past few days (to get a glimmer of hope too) but sadly AF arrived tonight. Gutted. I also had a false positive this morning on an easy@home test which made it even more heartbreaking as celebrated!

Onwards and upwards.

I really do think that everything happens for a reason so this month was again, not my month, but I have faith that I will get pregnant one day 🤞🏻and have to enjoy each month as it comes and not obsess about having a baby. A year might pass trying and I would miss it for all the worrying. I’m going to try not to overly worry and just enjoy connecting with DH. Tonight calls for wine though 🍷 ☀️

Done a test this morning....4 days before my period is due....BFN. Anyone else had a negative and then a positive later?

Feeling another month out!

@Cressie2 @KM8 @Bubblesandtroubles thanks for your nice messages! Always helps yo have others in the same boat (though a boat I wish none of us had to be in!)
6 dpo now and have been trying really hard this month...like twice a day,so much effort! So got my fingers crossed.
Back to the 2ww craziness!
Wishing everyone luck xxx

Hi 👋🏼 jumping back on, been trying for 4 months now & on day 2 of the TWW. I went into this so naively as we were so lucky that DC1 was conceived the first month & thought we'd be that lucky again. I think I messed up this month & didn't test ovulation at the right time so only managed to DTD the day before & day of ovulation, I'm trying to remain optimistic though

Me 👋

4 months in. Feeling like the months are dragging 😔

Hi all,
I think its O day. So one last attempt tonight. Then into the utter insanity that is TWW.
I am a bit confused though as I bought a fertility bracelet. I broke the strap night 2 as I think I put it on too tight and wrestled it off my wrist in the middle of the night 😩. Still using it with some makeshift bands to hold it on but have slept terribly since then so not sure how accurate the results are as I think you're supposed to have a period of 4 hours proper sleep or something and don't think I'm getting that in one go.
Not really sure what I'm looking at graphwise but was expecting to see a dip at time of ovulation and, in fact, there's a dip a few days ago. So might actually be a few days PO. In which case, worrying if we started early enough. Definitely covered it to a degree but will have only just scraped in at the end so panicking a bit now! Xx
