About to start TTC#2 - does anyone want to come along for the ride?

Hi there,

So, DD is going to be 3 in June and I'm going to be 38 two weeks later. About a year ago I wanted a 2nd DC but DH didn't. I then changed my mind at Xmas.

DH has now changed his mind and persuaded me so finally we're in agreement and ready to go.

CD1 is due this week and then we can start.

Is anyone else ready to TTC#2?

congrats to all the BFPs. AF is due in 3ish days hoping it doesnt come! we did shag alot during shag week and DP has even been looking at double prams Grin

Adayforthinking · 08/05/2012 14:04

Congratulations Cheeky!! That's brilliant news! Grin Grin

Sorry I've been absent from the thread, I've been so bloody ill over the bank holiday weekend!! It's just been a horrid cold but the worst one I've ever known. I literally was so congested I haven't been able to taste or smell anything since Thursday! There's a slight improvement today but still pretty horrid.

So, I'm now on DPO5 but other than a horrid cold and feeling hungry ALL THE TIME (again - putting that down to my cold), nothing to report here.

Something, I'm hoping you are getting a BFP hun, not long to wait. How's the new house? Smile

Eddie, I've replied on your other thread hun. I wonder if you've just OVd late this month, it does happen, which means when you DTD on 26th, you may still be in the running for a BFP. Give it a few more days and test again. Smile

Hope everyone enjoys their short week at work! xx

Aday Thanks for replying, sorry you've not been well

Hope I'll find out soon, its not so much the bfn as the not knowing iykwim?

Going into town now so may pick up a few test

Hope everyone else is well...

thanks aday i have a massive craving for mint sauce at the moment been putting it on everything it tastes sooo good but normall i dont even like it?! my £40 next order came today only to find they had mucked it up! but on the plus side DS got his amber necklace through the post today! Grin

Any news eddie or something?

I'm CD20 - think I ov'd about CD16 (no positive OPK but all the other signs were there) but despite impeccably timed BDing even though we were shattered and didn't feel like it I am feeling very PMS-y today, bad cramps, tired etc so I think I'm out for this month. Will stay optimistic until AF actually arrives but really, I know it's not our month.

So incredibly frustrating when you do everything right- why is it not happening?! Argh!! Sad

Hoping everyone else is having better luck.

pickles35 · 10/05/2012 20:26

I'm not! Pretty per menstrual here and expecting a visit any second. I didn't have a good feeling for this month but I got a new cbfm to use next month so at least that will be a novelty! Good luck the rest of you.

somethingwittynot · 10/05/2012 21:15

Af due tomorrow I usually wake up to her but I don't feel pmsy at all so we can only wait and see in not getting my hopes up though

Adayforthinking · 11/05/2012 07:39

Morning all,

Well 8DPO today and no symptoms to speak of, I don't think it will be my month either.

But girls, remember it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings, or in this case, the witch.

somethingwittynot · 11/05/2012 09:51

I'm now 14DPO and technically 9 hours and 51 minutes late. If she doesn't she show today I will give it a few more days....

Adayforthinking · 11/05/2012 11:57

Ooh this could be your month something! Xx

OP posts:
somethingwittynot · 11/05/2012 12:25

Still no AF yet.....

pickles35 · 11/05/2012 12:31

I don't think I got any symptoms last time apart from hot boobs. You could have fried an egg on them. I'm constantly poking them this week to see if they are hot, no joy so far. I'm about 10 dpo too.

somethingwittynot · 11/05/2012 13:19

Still no AF but I do kinda have hot boob. I've had heartburn a bit of bloating I have some sharp pains and a few AF styke cramps but that's it really though I found out about 5ish weeks with DS

cheeseandmushroomtoastie · 11/05/2012 17:54

Name changer but gave posted on here previously....

So haven't really been 'trying' to be honest, life is pretty hectic but a close friend announced her pregnancy on Tuesday and another one gave birth on Wednesday do the broody- ness is well an truly kicking in now Grin

I have batteries for my cbfm, have ordered preseed, both of which I think helped to conceive dc1..... So did giving up alcohol but we'll see how that goes shall we GrinGrin

Do any of you have irregular cycles? My cycles vary from 25-38 days.... I only have one ovary too, so I need all the help I can get with timings etc

Congrats to all with good news on the thread, that quite a good success rate so far! Here's to many more!

somethingwittynot · 11/05/2012 18:05

still no AF here usally very regualr cycles!

cheese i only have one ovary and one tube but if things stay the way they are this is either my month or my bodys fucked up Grin

cheeseandmushroomtoastie · 11/05/2012 18:35

Apologies for all the spelling mistakes- sausage fingers on my iPhone to blame Blush

cheeseandmushroomtoastie · 11/05/2012 18:37

something can I ask how long it took you to conceive dc1? Also what do you do to help ttc? I was told my one ovary would kick in and do the job of the one that was removed but I get a lot more pain and AF symptoms every other month, so not sure about that tbh....

somethingwittynot · 11/05/2012 18:51

well i concieved DS in 19 days the month after i had the dogy egg store removed. if i do get a bfp this month it will be three months this time round ive done nothing to help TTC just shagged alot! Grin

cheeseandmushroomtoastie · 11/05/2012 18:52

Yes that must help something Grin

somethingwittynot · 12/05/2012 14:41

well i did an internet cheapy on 14DPO anda 15DPO and i got a very faint BFP on both though todays is slightly clearer i might just test every few days or wait a week and see if it gets darker

thehomesecretary · 12/05/2012 16:19

Congratulations something a BFP is a BFP!!! Amazing news!
