TTC3, 2ww anyone want to join me??

[DGLLB]

Hi all,

DH & I are TTC DC3, we have DD 4 & DS 2, AF due 6th feb....

Well, I do think a March birthday is a little nicer than a February birthday (no offence meant to lovely Feb babies out there!).

Off for a nice non-preggers now the kids are finally in bed and kitchen (just about) clean.

Still holding out some hope for one for the thread this month - don't think we are all out yet?

Fx for you biscuits! You know no symptoms doesn't mean much ;)

All over the place here, haven't been tracking, clueless as to where I am in cycle or whether I've ov'd or not. Just have to wait and see.

I'm on knicker watch!!
I feel like AF is imminent so just a matter of time. I can't POAS, I hate BFN's so I'd rather wait for AF, plus I haven't got any pg tests anyway. I don't feel pg at all. We couldn't have done anymore so a small part of me can't understand how I'm not, and be gutted!

Is anyone else due AF this week?
Oif yes! March does seem a nicer birthday doesn't it! although I don't know why! prob because it's coming out of winter by then. Both mine are summer babies, which is great for birthdays! It would be weird if the next one was a winter baby, totally not what I'm used to. Better for school though as well.

You'd think we'd have this TTC thing down by now wouldn't you, seeing as we've all done it twice before. Just goes to show this never gets easier.

Anyway, I've got to go and check my knickers for the millionth time

Xx

....barely whispers.....
No AF.
I have symptoms.
I've just bought a test to do in the morning.
If I say it out loud, I'm convinced my AF will come, hence the whispering.
Eeekkkk.

AF for me it just isn't bloody fair [stamps feet].
19 cycles now.aaarhhhhh

Awh, sweep - sorry.... That's a long wait. But I think a March/April baby is much nicer (i have one!) so everything crossed for you this month.

Passthebiscuits... Poas! Go on!!!!!!

Ah sweep, I'm so sorry, that is a really long wait. Did it take this long with the other two? My sil was the same with her third, it just wasn't happening. The one month she didn't try as a lot going on that month, they DTD once and got pg, he's now a 6 month old! Easier said than done to keep the faith I know. Sending you big hugs!! Xx

So.... I POAS.... It's positive! Eeekkkkkk!! I feel different this time as I thought I'd got a stomach bug as been going to the toilet lots and feel queasy, I didn't feel queasy at all with first and only from 8 weeks with my second so just didn't put two and two together.

I'm so thrilled, due end of Jan all being well. I need to think of how to tell my DH as he'd already left for work this morning.

I hope mine is the start of a few more BFP's in the coming weeks.
Xx

Aw, sorry sweep. It isn't fair at all! I hope pass is right, and she has set off a streak of bfps for the thread…

Wonderful news pass - congrats!! Hope the queasiness eases off. How old are your two at the moment?

I have been feeling queasy too, and going to the loo a lot, but in my case probably actually is a stomach bug! Either that or the stress of moving (this weekend coming - totally unprepared and overwhelmed by the onslaught of admin and logistical planning...)

Yay biscuits thrilled for you! So good to get a BFP on the thread well done to you and mr biscuits!

sweep that is so crappy I'm so sorry, maybe your body is still settling down after mc? You don't opk, do you temp? Ah, such a disappointment though, I am sorry.

Hooray! Congratulations biscuits!! Fab news.

I was sure I had a tummy bug when I felt extremely queasy as light spotting - must have been day of implantation. Then just had achey boobs until 6.5 weeks - and now I feel constantly nauseous and hungover... (9 weeks ish tomorrow...). Am hoping it lifts at 12 weeks like with DCs 1 and 2!

Great news biscuits . Neither of my other 2 took this long, the Drs have no idea what the problem is. I've given up on OPK as it just for my hopes up more each month as I was sure I must fall as we DTD at the right times. My cycles are now just 3 weeks long which I don't think helps either.

Sweep - have you tried vitamin b6 (or is it b12)? One of them is supposed to lengthen your luteal phase. If you have a short cycle, you might not have long enough between ovulation and af for fertilisation and implantation to occur. Worth a google anyway and I know a bit more of that b vitamin won't harm you anyway....

I queried it with the GP as I thought that the short cycle could mean less chance of successful implantation , I'll go and have a look at those vitamins

Sweep, I've heard that too. It can't do any harm can it to try the vitamins. Good luck googling, I hope you find some answers.
Xx

Looking atthis I'm going to upgrade my folic acid tablets to a more broad spectrum multivitamin.

Wow, congratulations biscuits. You must be thrilled!

Just coming on here to see how everyone is doing - feel an affection for this thread as it's where my pregnancy journey 'began'. Am now 17 weeks along.

Congratulations passthebiscuits! Hope this is a happy, healthy, trouble-free pregnancy for you.

Wilting how are things? It's hard to judge where you are in a cycle after MC - were you aware of ov'ing at any point? Anyway fingers crossed for you, and for all of you. Hope those BFPs flood in in the coming weeks!
MMx

Hey Mabel god it feels like a lifetime away to get to 17 weeks!! Have you come out of the feeling rubbish and knackered and onto the blooming stage yet? Are you going to find out what your having, the scan isn't far away now.

Oif mine are 6 & 3 yrs old now. Nice gaps I'm hoping! ;) all being well my youngest (at the mo) will be in nursery for her free hrs when the baby arrives.

Good idea Sweep, I hope it makes the difference. Fingers crossed.
Anyone else due to POAS this week? Hopefully more BFP's this week.

Hello.
Tentatively joining. I'm on 2ww and would love a 3rd, but in all honesty, timing would be atrocious this time. We have 2 girls, 9 and nearly 2. I'm not very good at pregnancy and have quite a complicated history. Whilst I wouldn't have chosen such a big age gap, I love it and would like dd2 to be a little older before another so she has some dedicated time without younger ones like dd1 did. I know that she'd be ok though if I was pg. we're supposed to be moving in a couple of months though, due to DH's work, and I am applying for jobs now too. Wouldn't be great rocking up to interview grey as the wall and looking for the nearest waste paper basket to puke into. All that said, we would love another.

I've only had 6 periods since dd2 was born. My normal cycle is anywhere between 24 and 30 days but the last 2 were 22 and 24. I'm now on day 27 and getting a bit twitched, lol!

Now I've introduced myself, I'm going to read back and get to know a few of you a bit better

Hi everyone, just popping in to see how your all doing??

Seems a lifetime ago since I started this thread! Got my 20 week scan a week today Ekk......

Congratulations passthebiscuits

Fingers crossed for lots more BFP's

Whey hey exciting DG! Good luck and tell us how it goes :)

Welcome missingmymarbles, love the name ;)

If I was on an ordinary cycle my af would be due 4 june mabel. Haven't tracked or anything, just didn't feel like it. We've been dtd tho so you never know! Was out with my sister last night and she thought the wine was too sweet and I thought it was horribly sour... Can I call that a symptom?! Heh heh

Well, the red witch got me this morning. I am disappointed but my sensible head is somewhat relieved as we have such a lot of change going on at the minute. I have been called to interview which is good (although I'm bricking it)! Once we're moved and settled, we can start actively trying for #3. Can I stick around though, when I can, as I'd live to be announce #3 quite soon? All the best to everyone else, MMM

Hey everyone!
MMM sorry she got you! Yes def stick around, it's lovely to share this with other people, especially as it's number 3, I'm guessing a fairly underwhelming response for this one (my mum proved that point yesterday!)

Wilting not long to go! your on the home stretch! I'm crossing everything it's your month!!

DG how did the scan go? How exciting!

I'm around 5 weeks now, and panicking that I don't feel as queasy as I did last week, I hope everything's ok. I might get another digital and do it on Monday and see if it's gone up to 2-3 weeks. God the worry, every bloody stage is a worry right through isn't it?!

Hope everyone else is ok.
Xx

It bloody is biscuits, I was going to say you can't rest easy until they're in your arms but actually, that's a lot of worry and work too!

why are are trying to do this again?!

Ha ha Wilting I was going to say until they're 18 but I imagine even then, we'll worry about them for one reason or another. Damn these kids! ;)
