TTC #2 - would anyone like to share the journey?

[CarrotPuff]

All ages and age gaps welcome!

I'm 29, have a 16mo DS, TTC since periods came back in July 2014, had a mc in Jan.

Anyone else?

fingers crossed for you ellie

patty when I got pregnant with DS, I was sure I hadn't ovulated that month- no sore boobs, no ovulation pain, barely any ewcm- positive thinking :)
P.s I'm no spring chicken!

Let the two week wait commence!
Ellie hope bleeding settles today x
Hope everyone has lovely weekend x

Well I'm really confused. Still spotting... But this morning got a good line on a 20 mui test, so also still pregnant. However, also awake for hours in the night with dreadful stomach cramps - nothing like af pains, ifar far worse. Ive not had much sleep really, didn't even get to bed until 2am because toddler woke struggling to breathe and we took him to out of hours doctor at midnight. Turna out he hes croup, poor thing.

How are the rest of you ladies doing today?
Patty i have no symptoms on ovulating, reply on pee sticks to tell me when

Cd12 and circle on the OPK today.

Does circle mean positive? Mine just had lines.

No, circle on the clearblue digis means low fertility

Welcome coco!

Diana sorry AF got you, but at least you're out of limbo. and for you!

Ellie the spotting is probably breakthrough bleed as your AF would be due about now. Try not to worry (easier said than done, I know) and stay away from the pissy sticks. They will not put your mind at rest but will only fuel the anxiety.

AF is due in the next few days, trying not to symptom spot. Have been doing quite well so far but as AF is approaching it's getting much harder! Oh well, we shall see. Not holding my breath, we didn't put that much effort this month...

Fingers crossed for you carrotpuff!!

I'm feeling so deflated and meh about ttc at the moment. The late ov/short LP is such a bummer.

Thanks mugoo. I'm having strong cramps now, but no AF yet. If she's still not here tomorrow I might be testing earlier than I planned as this is how I felt with DS!

Speaking of whom, he's been such a PITA today. Tantrums all day. I can feel the last of 4 molars very close so I guess that's why... God if it wasn't a FD I would be having a huge glass of wine tonight!

Hi all,

Fx for you Ellie. FWIW, I had bleeding (spotting) at 5 and 9 weeks when pregnant with my son and nothing at all was wrong. Had a scan at 9 weeks because of it but nothing untoward was found. I hope (am sure) it is the same for you! Nothing easy about this baby business though

Fx for you too Carrot, with the testing and the poor DS. to you too!

Sorry you are worrying about you cycle Mrsmugoo, are the sticks always accurate? Can temping give you a bit more clarity about OV? Did you start that this cycle?

CD 21 here, I think (guess) I'm 6 DPO. Feeling much more relaxed and stress free in the TWW this time for now

Yeah Tor I'm temping this cycle. Cd14 and still a circle on the OPK but cm is ramping up so I just have no idea where I stand.

Thanks Torfhinn coco & ellie for your reassuring words.

CD21 here and no symptoms to spot, was involved in a car crash this morning so that's taken my mind off things!

Going to ring clearblue back tomorrow as I've been accepted on their ovulation trial, so at least I'll have those for next cycle hopefully.

The only thing that's made being woken up at 6am better is a flashing smiley!!

Wish there was a 'like' button on here mrsmugoo!

Hurray for the flashing smiley mrs!

Hope everyone else is okay. Sorry I haven't been around for a couple of weeks but have been trying not to obsess too much this month. Have been checking in occasionally though.

Glad you are feeling relaxed Torfhinn.

Hope you are ok after car crash Patty!

I'm ok thanks hopeintheair, very sore and prob still in shock

Oh God Patty I hope you're ok!

Well I caved and it's a BFN. Expecting AF to zoom in later today or tomorrow. Must not stray away from my determination not to POAS too early next time

Hi all

Sorry about the bfn carrot it's the worst - wine chocolate etc for you although know that won't make you feel lots better.
Christ patty a car crash hope you are ok and recover quickly.
Hope you are ok Ellie?
Hooray for the flashing smiley mugoo hope you get chance to make the most of it.
Cd27 here and no AF yet but feel like she is on her way so trying hard not to be hopeful or POAS.

Oh no sorry to hear about your BFN Carrot :( At least it's a NFD and you can eat something nice tonight!

Going to be getting on the case tonight and then at least I'll feel like I'm doing something!

Thinking about booking a Drs appointment for just after my next AF to discuss my short LP. Will they even care?

Sorry about the bfn carrot, hope you are okay.

FX for you woundbobbin. Hope AF stays away.

Think it is definitely worth going to the doc mrs, even if just for some reassurance.

Cd16 and solid smiley!!!

Hi can I join you? Stopped taking cerazette 2 weeks ago to ttc #2. Took 18 months with dd so not feeling too positive for anything to happen instantly! I feel like I've forgotten everything, haven't had AF since 2012 so dreading that!

Hello, can I join?
Been TTC #2 for nearly 2 years. Dd is 5. We didnt want such a big age gap. Am quite advanced in age (so said my consultant) and started clomid for 1st cycle yesterday. No-one in RL knows we are even trying.

Hello all, long time lurker on MN here... can I join the party late? I'm 29, with an 18 month old DD, and was on implanon until April so have been out of touch with my cycle, though from memory it was always 27-30 days long. On my second cycle of TTC, first cycle AF came at day 30 but this cycle AF came 6 days early (day 24) last night! sad times. Feeling a bit demoralised at the moment...

I'm ok thanks Carrotpuff & woundbobbin just very sore, still off work. Good luck for this month mrsmugoo! Welcome to Tfoot75 & ttcgy38*. I'm on cd23, still no symptoms to spot, won't be surprised when af shows at all.
