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?

Hi LittleAindy, AF due 1st Sept, can't stop thinking about it, driving myself mad with constant googling. Need to calm down a bit, probably in for a massive low if negative.

Fingers x you get your BFP soon.

Dear lord, the amount of Googling I've achieved in the last 4 months, I could probably get a degree in the female reproductive system!! My earlier post has my symptoms for this month, but now I have a couple of new ones: tea/coffee tasting like crap, feeling sick half way through eating, thrush and (sorry TMI) labia has changed from pink to brownish...and yeah, that's apparently a symptom due to increased blood flow down there

Dr wasn't interested in AF no-show and symptoms, just gave me a prescription for thrush and told me to keep testing weekly. Ordered a bunch of Amazon cheapies which is forcing me not to POAS until next week!!

Try not to get too crazy with Google, but I swear it somehow makes you feel a bit better?! Interested to know what your symptoms are.

And old AF has moved in, ugh Ah well, drowning my sorrows in a big glass of red, and geeing myself up for September!

Cd19 and still nothing

LittleAindy sorry AF showed up, hope you enjoyed the wine, not sure I could stop at one though. Fingers x for September.

Still keeping busy here and trying not to touch Google. Another week till AF due.

Thank you SmallFry Seem to be having a very light period compared to my usual tsunami!! Plus my boobs have started hurting and I'm completely fatigued. I emptied the dishwasher earlier, then had to lie down!! So going to Drs tomorrow to make sure it's nothing sinister as that's twice this month I've experienced this Any more symptoms for you??

mrsmugoo - how are things with you?

Hi all. I had my fertility doc appointment yesterday which went really well. It was so nice to be seen by someone who truly understands and doesn't judge.

I was cd21 just 1dpo according to my opk and the doctor agreed with this based on an internal scan which showed my ovaries and that there was fertile mucous in my cervix. He said it all looked great but given I was cd22 I was definitely having a "dysfunctional cycle" and that I was certainly have what he would term luteal phase defect.

I now have progesterone pessaries to start taking after each ovulation for 2 weeks and if I get a BFP then continue for 3 months.

I'm over the moon because now I feel that there's a level playing field and I've got a fighting chance of actually getting pregnant!!

Great to see some new names after sooo many BFP departures.

Mrs M appointment sounds successful.

Just moving in to 2ww phase again can't believe it is now a year of thought/TCC.

Had lovely relaxing holiday now back to real world washing etc x

Hi everyone! !! May I join? I'm actually a returning member. Was here in 2012 TTC number 1. I ended up having a mc and got pregnant with DS 4 mos later. He's now a very healthy and energetic 2 yr old! I am once again re-living the heartache that comes with ttc. Today is the first day of cycle 6! I'm positive and praying that September is our month. I've ordered My Preseed and I'm ready for my BFP!!!!

Hello stickybeans, fingers x for September!

CD 26 for me today, didn't think AF was due till middle of next week as usually 28 to 31 day cycle but lots of period type pains today, feels like it's starting. Boo.

Feeling exhausted.

Hi all, welcome to everyone new!

I'm so pleased that your appointment went well Mrsmugoo, it must be such a weight off your mind knowing you are getting the help you need. Good luck!

I'm currently 11dpo and couldn't resist testing this morning. Off course, bfn. But can't help that little niggle that says 'oh but it's still early'... so i live in hope. Do not feel pregnant in the slightest [sigh]

We are cycle buddies pipedown - I'm also cd 26, af due Wednesday! Hope it's not af for you

Fingers x for us next week then Torfhinn!

AF not arrived yet but still got lots of aches and pains and feeling extremely grumpy. After some furious googling I'm hoping all this is a good sign and not a bad sign as I originally thought.

I'm out Spotting started today so AF will be here tomorrow or Wednesday. Roll on next cycle....

Fx for everyone else!

CD 23 - same old same old - after a grey bank holiday going for vino - tomorrow going to try and stop drinking and eat healthier for few months - felt positive last week - now just waiting for AF to come - on the positive side school uniform labelled !

Hi all - back to beginning now CD 2 - keeping busy with necessary jobs in house and garden - can't believe how cruel AF can be - fingers crossed for next month x

Haven't checked this thread out in a while. How is everyone? I'm entering the dreaded TWW tomorrow

I know iI haven't oosted much lately but I was trying to keep relatively calm and stress free with the whole TTC thing. Anyway, I just waned to update you all that I got my BFP this morning!

Thnaks for all the great support!

Torf x

Congratulations great news - once again entering a 2ww ! Done the full year now ! Not even buying preg tests any more! Got feeling ain't gonna happen x
