The previous OPs have gotten their BFPs so I have cheekily created this one just hoping that I could get lucky. Hahaha. 😅 Silly, right ?
A bit about me - currently trying to conceive baby No.2 and this is my 4th postpartum cycle.
So I wish everyone good luck and lots of baby dust! 🤞

Thank you! Although I don’t have perimenopause, I can imagine it is really hard to predict each cycle and know what your body is doing. I am experiencing something similar and I am still trying to figure out what my body is doing and what each cycle is like after giving birth. This is my 4th postpartum cycle so I am hoping that it will go back to what it was like previously.

The uncertainty of it all is frustrating that’s for sure. I’m trying to look ahead and plan roughly when we would be needing to TTC but with a cycle that’s varying by +/- 10 days each month now it’s hard to predict. Hopefully your cycles will return back to how they were once they settle down post partum, mine did go back to normal once they returned thankfully. But that was nearly 4 years ago and things have gone a bit haywire since then unfortunately 🙈

Wishing you lots of luck for this cycle @LucyCL! it is such a long wait between all the different stages of TTC isn’t it. I’m pretty sure I’ve started perimenopause as my cycles the last 6 months have been all over the place, when I used to be like clockwork. Makes the waiting even more painful as I just don’t know when to expect my period 😩

Today is CD8 and I have started to track CBT since last night. My body tends to ovulate on CD18. It does feel like a long time. 😅

Hi! I will join this thread as hoping to TTC no.2 when AF arrives next month. Good luck to you this cycle!

Today is CD6. To be honest, I have not been thinking about ttc since AF started. Now it is coming to the end, I will have to think about it again.
