Currently TTC number 2 and struggling after getting pregnant fairly easily with number 1 (on cycle 3)! Thought I'd start a thread so we can all support each other. Anyone else on their TTC journey for number 2? I am currently on cycle 7 and have ruled myself out already as negative pregnancy test at 10DPO. Each month I convince myself that I am pregnant! Experienced a chemical at cycle 3 😩

ive just read your previous messages! We’re also on proceive which our doctor also seemed to okay. I’ve just ordered some coq10… and have a hycosy scheduled for next week 😩

I’m tentatively scheduled to have one early October! DH getting his swimmers tested first, as I thought there wouldn’t be enough time between af and me going away this
cycle (before af showed up early). Good luck and 🤞!!

Ah we're similar my son was second cycle too!

Awe sorry to hear that, it such a limbo isn't it! Thank you, I'm just taking vit d and folic acid atm but I keep seeing people mentioning coq10 so might look into that. Are you?

I’m taking omega 3, ubiquinol (coq10), and proceive max… not sure it actually does anything but the fertility specialist I saw approved. Thinking of adding baby aspirin as I was recommended it when pregnant with DC1. AF showed up saturday, 3 days early, so my cycles are now anywhere from 24 to 30 days! It’s all so unpredictable!

But on the bright side, I might ovulate before I leave now… How are you getting on?

VioIetMoon · 25/08/2024 13:26

I'm planning on ttc #2 next cycle. Currently 2dpo. #1 is only a few months 😆 and as much as I'd like to wait a few more months , time isn't on my side as I'll be turning the big 40 next year so I just kinda wanna go with the flow and if it happens it happens. After years and years struggling to get pregnant, we fell pregnant naturally but miscarried in 22 then #1 was an ivf pregnancy so I'm not holding out much hope of a natural conception again but no harm in trying and if not in 6 months we'll go ahead with another egg collection. I have pcos and cycles have only became more regular past 2 years . I only found out during investigations that I was never ovulating before

Hi! I know what you mean, with my son we got pregnant on cycle 2! Just had another BFN and I’m going to be away when I ovulate next month, so it’s gonna be at least a few more months. Good luck with the 2ww! Are you taking any supplements or anything?

I am certain I will be joining you both too! I’m only on 8dpo but I just know I’m not pregnant!

I'm in my forth cycle trying for a 👶🏼 and I think I'm finally aware of my PM symptoms now... I'm trying to keep the positive thoughts flowing!

@SkaterChick I came on 🤪 it's official, we have the same cycle ✋

😟 are you ok?

I'm pretty sure I'm coming on tomorrow as a negative test this morning. See you next month 🤞

Show quote history

Meh, I'm disappointed. I really hate this part. But I also had pretty much no inclination to test this month so I think I just knew? Idk.
I'm in a horrid mood today but that could just be pmdd /hormones.
Can't wait to get into bed and eat a giant bar of chocolate.

I haven't tested today yet.
Im 12dpo. Period due tomorrow.
I don't have any sensitive tests left either. Just some clear and simple dip twats which I think don't detect until 20miu
I don't have any cramps or anything today. I'm just tired and needing to wee every 10 minutes 😅 so I'm unsure if I could even hold a wee long enough 🤣🤣🤣
If no AF in the morning I'll test then but I don't have much hope after the 5 days late débâcle last month.

Dip twats 😂😂🤪

Eugh I think I had an ovary cyst burst (didn’t think I even had a cyst but apparently they can just appear) last month as had really bad abdominal pain with ovulation and bloating so went to GP…. He said it’ll just sort itself…. But then had period 3 days early and very heavy and now ovulation delayed (or on track with original timeline) as having negative digital CB tests. Annoying! Does everyone normally ovulate same day each month?

Oh this sounds awful- I hope you're feeling better. Are you tracking your ovulation?

I had my hormonal IUD out 4 months ago & started tracking my cycle immediately and altered my flo app to keep track. Now it seems to be like clockwork.

Last month, I was a bit obsessive so I've tried this month to calm it down a bit so randomly did a OPK one day and it was quite strong and left it as that.

Hoping to join too if that's ok! I'm olllld but we're going to try! I had my little boy at 40 he's now 17 month's we got pregnant very quickly with him but I'm not expecting the same this time around. We've only been trying for a couple of months really although much harder to time everything with a little one! Currently 3 dpo so the dreaded wait begins 😂

@NattyPeer i don’t think so, I think AMH is just biological… I should have known though, I went through puberty at 9! We did go private, our GP is great but referral times are unpredictable. So just focusing on what I can do for egg quality. DH is still so optimistic, which I find both endearing and annoying 😂

Can I join? Been trying for #2 for 5 cycles, I’m 38 so time isn’t on my side. DC 1 is 3 and I wish we had started trying earlier. Had all the tests and AMH not great for my age- 5.4. I’m 10dpo and think I’m out again, BFN this morning when with DC1 I had a strong BFP by now, no symptoms at all. Can’t help thinking it’s just not going to happen…

Hello! I wish I would have started earlier too, if only we had a crystal ball! Is there anything that can be done re the AMH? Did you go privately for tests?

ive gone slightly mad pulling rhr data from my previous pregnancy (weeks 1-4 before I knew I was pregnant) and comparing them against the last couple of months. Staring at my excel and thinking of plotting some graphs. Losing the plot for sure!!
