TTC and still breastfeeding? You're not alone! Thread# 2

Marking my place...hoping I won't be here for long

Mary - I don't want anymore wraps. I made 2 cucumber cheese wraps at lunch and now my craving has been satisfied I'll be having leftover fish pie that I made yesterday or chicken.

Mumofone - I had planned a family walk and meal tomorrow but now that DS is sick I'll have to cancel I'll try and see my mum at some point as I've never not seen her on Mother's Day. DH has suggested that we go to our local restaurant with DS but I don't think he's well enough. We will see.

Ahh hope he feels much better by tomorrow, Pear

Hi all, sorry to hear about all the sick and teething little ones, hope they are all back on form soon. My little guy has started feeding again during the night, not as often as before. Still no sign of a/f and I know it's not going to appear soon. Really need to start work on cutting down the feeds ! It's so much hard work with ds he protests so much! Really so broody though and my job isn't the easiest when your broody!! Good luck to all :)

Yes Ruthbabyruth I'm a midwife. My ds is 18 months and still no af :(! X

Morning! Happy Mother's Day. I've had the night from hell with DS waking 3x asking for milk. Had to give him 2 beakers and then bf at 4am. He's now stirring at 8:30 which I suppose is a plus. I guess the warm milk soothed his throat or he's really hungry because he hasn't eaten in days So, we won't be going anywhere today but luckily I have some food in the fridge for a change.

I need help. It's CDD 22 for me. Last month I ovulated on Cd24. My monitor is still showing high (10 days now) but the second line is like a ghost line...did this happen last month where the second line went faint? I have a feeling it did. I don't know whether to DTD tonight or not. I know I have to but I have zero energy. I know the answer I wanted Mother's Day off

Happy Mother's Day to all you lovely ladies. Fx that this time next year we all have another little baby to celebrate with

Happy Mother's Day everyone Hope you all have a lovely day with your little ones.

Sorry I've not been posting much. My. DD has been really unwell all week and got a rash all over her body on Fri which was worrying. She seems a bit better today but we will still stay in today I think.

Pear, I'm not too sure what to advise as I know sperm can live for a good few days after DTD and will hang around in the right place, so you could still conceive even if you skipped tonight. But, I know if you're like me you'll be over-thinking it and will worry if you don't do it! See how you feel later maybe and take it from there? Can you tell your DH how you're feeling and maybe he will summon the energy and enthusiasm for both of you? It is Mother's Day after all, so a nice relaxing massage beforehand to get you in the mood may be in order?!

Hallo fellow bf friendlies! Hope you're all well and chipper.
Cd10 here, thinking about starting soy today as I'm really disheartened and want to try eee-eeeverything! Immediately! B6 didn't help past month's lp at all so hey ho hey.
DC feeding more again because I've been lazy with doing all the formula stuff (seriously! Who has the time and energy to boil water and wash and sterilise ffs!?) and the whole house is ill anyway. Everyone happier with boobies except hypothetical non-existent yet DC2 embryo.
Sorry for just barging in with depressing post. Am glad there is lots of chatting going on here! Nice to see!

Duchess ~ I like your thinking

Sorry to hear so many of us our suffering with Dc being sicky poo Poor bubs! We're all so lucky to be a mummy

Totally ignoring the twinge in my right ovary lol la la la laa la la laaaa!

I'm looking forward to my bAck massage tonight

My dd is still poorly & now refusing solids so having boob all the time - this can't be good for ttc Poor little thing, hope she's better soon. Hope all the poorly dc get well soon

Good luck with the soy, aurora. Excuse my ignorance but how is it meant to help?

Afternoon everyone. Sorry to hear that so many dcs are still poorly. Not the best Mothers' Day for us all

We have major sleep regression / teething (or just naughtiness) going on here. I'm soooo tired! Feeling a bit down too - Mothers' day always makes me a little sad as I lost my mum many years ago and would love to be able to take her out for a meal or have a relaxing spa day together. At least I now have a gorgeous dd to be thankful for.

Yay mumo we might all have another dc by next year! That means twice as many chocolates and flowers right?

Haha Mary, definitely Sorry for your loss of your mum

Right then, back to some serious business. Who's also on the home straight of their tww?
Cd22 here, 9dpo and 6 days until AF (er sorry I meant bfp) is due. Come and join me and we can symptom spot like crazy ttc-ers!

Thank you mumo x

Mary I'm cd21, about 6/7dpo & 8 days til I can poas!!! I'm not v hopeful though as I've had to feed dd so much recently & I've heard that can prevent implantation

You never know though. Keep hopeful.

Thanks Mary I love this thread - you lot keep me sane

Aww Mary I'm sorry that Mother's Day commercial day reminds you of sad things Another Dc to look forward to having next year would be the best gift for us all

I'm very envious of all of you on the 2ww I really hope the thread has some good news soon ??

Thank you pear.

I really hope that what you're trying to ignore experiencing are ovulation pains

I hope they are ovulation pains too, pear

Welcome Special!!

Pear you are getting a bfp....craving things? 10 days of high fertility? A friend had 6 days of positive ov sticks last 2 being faint & got her bfp that cycle! Your feeling implantation pain
Just dtd in the morning to cover all your bases

I hope everyone else has had a wonderful weekend
