Oh good so I’m not the only crazy one with the big age gap haha 😝
oh no not old but I started my family at 27 so feel like it’s a long time to be having young kids but we always said 3 🙏
I also got my bloods done and all looks good apart from my iron levels but I knew that before because of old bloods and I have very heavy flow so I feel like my body can never catch up 🫤
Our af is due the same day but do you think you’ll test early? Do you usually get any AF signs before?

This will be baby number 3, we have two boys nearly 8 and 5 so feels crazy going back but I’ll be 35 at the end of the month and feel like it’s my last try at it.
I am also very lucky with my older son it was cycle #1 and with my other boy it was cycle #2.
We did TTC back in 2024 but it wasn’t the right time and we put a hold on it. We were trying for 3/4 months I can’t remember but no luck which probably was for the best 🥰

They definitely don’t understand but I get it because it’s not their body so hard to know what we go through. I’m glad you’re kept busy it’s all I can think about hahaha.
How old is your little one?
I will keep you posted tomorrow :)

Ah nice ages! Mine is 8 too 🥰
took DH a while to be ready for the second one 😅 Ahh don’t say 35 is old! I’m 40… had my bloods for various things and fertility hormones checked recently and all seemed ok (did privately just to know where I am) although might need to check day 21 progesterone

@ThisRareCat oh ok, wishing you best of luck! Those sound like good signs! Let us know how you get on with testing. Are you trying for your first?
haha yes men are generally less invested and don’t think fully understand 😂
I haven’t done OPKs either - first baby conceived first try so this is new to me. Might try it next cycle too if nothing happens this one.
Might test early next week? Been very busy this week with family and work and it’s helped keep my mind of TWW so much more than previous months! X

@GreenApple121 welcome 🤗 glad I have a few people to talk to :)

I am cycle 2 but I haven’t tried the OPK this time around as me and DH said If it’s meant to be it will be! I’m secretly a little more invested and will start them next month if we have no luck this time 🫤

I have a delivery coming today with some FRER I will test tomorrow morning at 10dpo well this is what I think I am from the app and other signs.
will you both test early? I had lots of cramps from 6&7 dpo and my boobs are very sore.
I don’t usually get any signs AF is coming so hoping it’s a good sign.
I only have this month and next month to get pregnant then will have to take a little break otherwise it will impact my work to much 🥹 x

@ThisRareCat good luck this cycle! Think I’m pretty similar - AF due on 18th July. I’m around 7/8 DPO I think?…
TTC baby number 2 here, cycle number 4 now.
no symptoms whatsoever! How about you?
you guys tend to test early? I’m really trying to hold off this cycle

@2025babyfever have you got any symptoms at all? How long did it take to convince your other babies? Are you going to hold off testing before AF x
