Hey everyone! After 4 years we've decided to try for baby no 2! But it feels like such a long time ago now, I can hardly remember the ttc processBlush anyway, finished my lmp a couple of days ago and started ovulation testing! Wondering if anyone's in the same boat this month? Hoping for an April '15 baba!:)

@PlantEnthusiast no, I'm not bothering with temping. I have a 5 month old that I get up with afew times during the night so that would probably mess it up.
Are you planning to test before Afs sue date? I'll probably cave at 10dpo.

I'm having the same issue with BBT atm too, dunno if I should even bother. 9mo is going through sleep regression so I'm up at all hours 🙃

PlantEnthusiast · 18/07/2024 20:22

@Kiwiburgh oh wow, you’re going for a small age gap! That will be so lovely. I have a just turned 2yo and he usually sleeps through but an early waker! Apple Watch seems to be doing ok and BBT tracking though. Going to try and wait out till 14dpo. I drive myself nuts with vfls last month, it was torture!

@Kiwiburgh here we go on the 2ww then! Not sure exactly when I ovulated, my LH peak was Mon so presume ovulation was Tues/Weds making me either 1 or 2 dpo 😬 are you tracking BBT?

Kiwiburgh · 17/07/2024 23:53

@PlantEnthusiast 1dpo today, pretty certain due to cm drying up. We only managed to dtd 5 and 4 days before ovulation though so I'm not holding my hopes up

AlleycatMarie · 17/07/2024 20:17

Really hoping you all have luck this month and won’t need this, but I have started an August thread.

So AF came today 😢 Years of trying so I should be used to it but I’m not.
I’ve tried everything, tracking, OPKs, BBT, all the supplements and IVF. So I think what I’m going to do now is start a TTC Aug 24 thread (if there isn’t already one) and see if it brings me any luck!
Baby dust to all xx

BlueberryPoppy123 · 17/07/2024 18:43

Cd 9 here not due to ovulate until around CD 18. This cycle feels so long!

PlantEnthusiast · 17/07/2024 06:12

@Kiwiburgh how are you doing? Looks like my temp is starting to rise this morning so I’m hopeful everything is as it should be. I had a chemical last month so wasn’t sure how this cycle would be!

@omghavingababy sorry to hear about your loss. Everything crossed that this is your month 🤞🏼

@Amber17 my peak usually comes on very fast so chances are you did ovulate when expected. Have you been tracking long?

Amber17 · 16/07/2024 23:16

3dpo here I think - ran out of OPKs on CD13 and hadn’t seen a peak yet, should have ovulated around CD14. Slightly panicking that I haven’t and we’ve missed our chance this month.

omghavingababy · 16/07/2024 23:04

Hello would love to join this thread I'm 2DPO!!

2 miscarriages + 1 year TTC ....I do have a 4 year old just about to start school ☺️

Interesting what someone put in here about googling post ovulation extreme fatigue I practically napped all day today and been in a tired haze! Obviously I've been trying for ages now during this TWW I'm already convinced I'm pregnant but going to not test til 10DPO if I keep strong 🙌🏼 good luck everyone!

@justloveandlightx did you get a BFP?

Kiwiburgh · 16/07/2024 21:35

@PlantEnthusiast I'm similar to you, positive opk yesterday so assuming ovulation will be today.
Good luck 🍀

PlantEnthusiast · 16/07/2024 20:54

@mountainhighhh just a few days ahead of you over here. Expecting ovulation today or tomorrow. Due to complete on our new house 2 weeks on Friday so hoping the frantic packing will distract from the torture 😬

mountainhighhh · 16/07/2024 20:42

Entering the fertile window, so here's to another 5 days of fun and 2 weeks of torture! 🥂😅

SkaterChick · 16/07/2024 19:07

@Moomoo20 I was very lucky dad was home as he isn't usually!
I am dreading getting pregnant and having to deal with the toddler who seems to have utterly boundless energy, especially if I get HG again. I just have to tell myself it's worth it and I want another 😂
I'm still exhausted and can't wait to get into bed.

SkaterChick · 16/07/2024 18:26

@Moomoo20 it's not a sure thing until aunt flo arrives 🤞🏼I've heard of people having LH surges around implantation.

Me: I'm not going to symptom spot, it's too difficult with the HG symptoms before my period

Also me: Googles Extreme fatigue 2/3 dpo 🤦🏼

Why am I like this 😂😂
Had a wave of fatigue this afternoon, hit me from nowhere. Took the little out for a bit, went for a walk, had lunch and then couldn't keep my eyes open and passed out on the sofa for a couple hours (dad was home this afternoon so little wasn't unattended!!)

Aw I have total pregnancy belly and bloated with cramps so AF is definitely on the horizon Confused.

A 2 hours nap sounds like a dream!!! I had my little one at gym class earlier than we went to soft play and spent the rest of the day at the park, I'm utterly exhausted 😩 feel like I have zero energy today. I swear if asleep on the sofa for even 2 mins my husband would be waking me straight up 😂 (or my 3 year old) never get a chance to rest. Makes me sacred the thought of being pregnant and sickness with a 3 yo to run around after lol

Moomoo20 · 16/07/2024 16:24

Ok update, I took another opk this afternoon and it's very negative 😂. I can feel period bellow coming, I'm out this month girls.

Moomoo20 · 16/07/2024 07:44

Ok so looking back at previous opk results on my app, in March I had the same dark opk a couple of days before period came. I'm guessing it's due to a surge of lh before my period, think I'm out this month :(

Moomoo20 · 16/07/2024 07:31

Ok I hate myself haha but I don't have any pregnancy tests and randomly decided to do an opk even though I'm 11dpo and my period is due in two days. I was surprised how dark it is. I've heard that opks can pick up hcg, anyone had this before. Alternatively it could just be a rise in lh before my period comes

Moomoo20 · 15/07/2024 21:08

Yes I would say today is your first peak so you will most likely ovulate within the next 24/48 hours. Goof that you dtd today and yesterday I would try again for today/tomorrow if you can for luck 🤞

Don't know if we'll squeeze it in tomorrow but fingers crossed

Moomoo20 · 15/07/2024 21:08

Lovedatforme · 15/07/2024 21:00

Hoping this is me ovulating this month! We BD yesterday & today and on CD9 so fingers crossed 🤞

@Moomoo20 bloody hate this ttw thing 😂😂
Fingers and toes crossed for you lovely.

I've got for internet cheapy tests in and I'm refusing to let myself get any good tests as when TTC my first I became obsessed with peeing on sticks 😅😂
Also trying not to think of how many dpo I am and obsess over symptoms as well

Moomoo20 · 15/07/2024 08:11

SkaterChick · 14/07/2024 22:00

@Moomoo20 ohh fingers crossed it's implantation... Would this line up with your cycle?

It would as I was 9dpo which is around the time for implantation but as I said I've had 'symptoms' every month to the point I've been 100% convinced I'll pregnant some months, then I'm not. So any symptoms mean nothing to me now 😂
