I am out this cycle, anyone else want to join? Think I’ll ovulate around 29th June.

Ttc after an mmc and d and c in April, and took May off but think that was an anovulatory cycle anyway. Have a lovely three year old conceived through ivf.

Would definitely like two, and because of our age, we’d probably be keen to go back-to-back 🤣 They say once your body knows what it’s doing, it should help speed things along!

My period arrived this morning with a vengeance! I will say, she’s always been very consistent, so at least I know my body is doing what it should be, we just need that little bit of magic to happen haha! I actually feel fine though and I’m staying optimistic for October 🍂🎃🍁 I’ve accepted that it’s out of my control now.

Only two more months before we hit the one-year mark!!

How many would you like to have? When I was a kid, I always said I’d love five. Now, after being on this rollercoaster and seeing the financial reality of it all, I genuinely couldn’t think of anything worse haha!

Keep me posted on how you get on! And honestly, no job is worth your mental health. If you can afford to leave, do it! 🩷

I got a job offer a couple of days ago and I a few more interviews lined up so looks like I'm out of there! One of them will offer maternity pay but I have to be there before I'm pregnant. Would be soo annoying to fall pregnant between accepting the offer and starting the job haha. Trying to look at the bigger picture though and not just maternity pay.

We'll be at the year mark at the end of next month, it's crazy how fast time has gone. I still can't get my head around the fact that we got pregnant 2 months in and then literally nothing since. How is that even possible? The consultant said it's a good sign that it happened once but it doesn't feel like it when that was nearly 10 months ago!!

Sorry to hear AF arrived! I'm not due until tomorrow. I tested negative on 10,11 and 12dpo so I know I'm out, just waiting for AF and a fresh cycle. My husband has his SA in a few weeks once we're back from holiday so will feel better when that's out the way. The way this is all going though I feel like it's going to be IVF for us. Annoyingly, we'll have to wait another year and a bit for that. Apparently each miscarriage resets the 2 year clock for IVF which seems cruel.

Here's hoping spooky season brings us luck. I've actually thought about paying an etsy witch for a fertility spell... I'm losing the bloody plot haha.

Hey lovely!

Just checking in to see how you’re getting on this month! How did all the interviews go? Have you managed to secure a better job with better benefits in the end? Also, remind me, when are you off on holiday and where are you going again? Hopefully somewhere warm because it’s suddenly got so cold! Bet you can’t wait to get away and switch off for a bit.

I can’t believe I’m hitting the one-year mark of TTC this month 😳 I absolutely love this time of year, though, and I’m so excited to see what the next few months bring. I might have to join you with the Etsy witchy stuff at this rate!

I was chatting to my cousin, who’s also TTC. She fell pregnant in her first month of trying, but sadly, when she went for her 12-week scan, they discovered the baby had stopped developing at around six weeks. It was absolutely heartbreaking. Life can be so cruel sometimes.

It was really nice being able to talk openly with her about both our journeys, though, and it reminded me how much we all go through on this path.

How amazing would it be if we both conceived this month, just as we hit our one-year mark?!
