Anyone ttc baby #2?

Hi everyone,

I'm new here, ttc baby #2 (1st cycle) and already driving myself wild with the tww. I wondered if anyone else is in the same boat?

I was so relaxed about baby #1 that the constant nagging thoughts about am I / aren't I are completely new to me and are making me feel anxious with symptom spotting.

Thought I'd see if there is anyone to talk to on here as my husband is quite matter of fact about there being nothing we can do to find out except for being patient - I know, he's infuriating right.

It'd be great to buddy up if anyone else is in a similar position.

Go for it Gx, sounds like a fun day ahead for you!

AF arrived this morning - very apt that the witch is here for Halloween! I'm not disappointed as I had no indication or symptoms this month, I was sure it wasn't my month from the get go. Feeling positive about a new start now though for when AF has buggered off. I'm cd1 now, so going to have a look at those apps and see how I get on with them.

I'm going to try not to symptom spot this time round and just let nature run its course !

HoggleHoggle · 31/10/2015 15:24

Sorry jp though pleased you're positive about it. If nothing else, Halloween AND AF is the best excuse to munch a massive bag of chocolate I've ever heard Wink

Gx91 · 02/11/2015 14:41

Good luck to all look forward to hear how u getting on at whatever point in the cycle u r xx

Loki17 · 02/11/2015 16:30

I'm 10 dpo. 4 days until I know either way.

Gx91 · 02/11/2015 17:29

Woohoo that's exciting wish I cud jump time and be in your shoes Smile how u feeling have u had any symptoms that have stuck out ? Xx

HoggleHoggle · 02/11/2015 17:41

If I'm on a shorter cycle then I can test from weds...not sure if I will though. I drove myself mad last month thinking AF was late but having BFNs...if poss I will try to leave it to the weekend at least otherwise if I get a negative this week there will always be a bit of me deep down which thinks it might be false.

Loki17 · 02/11/2015 17:52

I can't decide if I've had symptoms or I'm just imagining them. I imagined nausea and sensitive smell last month! My boobs are sore but that could be from the post ov progesterone surge or impending af. I've got a headache but I have been wearing my glasses which I don't normally so could be that. I've had a touch of nausea but not much. I think the nausea and food aversions are my imagination because I'm so desperate to be pregnant. Having some mild cramps tonight so I'm pretty sure af will show up at some point. Hope it isn't early because then ill panic about my cycles which will make everything even more stressful!

Gx91 · 02/11/2015 18:18

Oh it's such a hard time ! Hopefully your the stress isn't causing symptoms and u are actually pregnant can't wait to see another BFP on here it really lifts spirits!! Smile my cycles have been pretty long since I came of birth control last one was 38 days ! That's y I bought OPKs this month so I could pin point ovulation which was cd19 X
Il probs start POAS 10dpo bcoz I get so impatient ! Probs I'm for giving myself the BFN disappointment bcoz you do end up in denial ! Looking forward to finding out tho xx

Figgygal · 02/11/2015 19:53

I've banned pregnancy tests from the house now as was testing monthly driving myself mad so until I am on day 30+ I will not test!!! Oh no I won't.......at least until next time I run late Grin

I have had a 24/25 day cycle the last few months so I'm told I should start doing opks today onwards so the indignity of daily weeing on sticks has begun. Starting temp measuring today too.

I'm impressed how in tune with your bodies some of you are I'm hopeless I notice nothing!!

Loki17 · 02/11/2015 20:44

So I couldn't resist testing this evening and I got this: I'm pretty sure it's an evaporation line. I'm 10 dpo. I'll test again in the morning but how the heck am I supposed to sleep now?!

Anyone ttc baby #2?
Gx91 · 02/11/2015 20:48

Lol figgy I know what u mean tho , peeing on a stick has been just a normal part of life lately it would seem , my Bf looks at me like a weirdo when he comes in the room n I'm holding a pissy stick waiting for a line lol
I ran through with my positive OPK on Saturday n he was like " that's got pee on it , don't hold it so close ! " Grin X
Was glad I used them this cycle tho , let us know how the temping goes I don't know whether to bother as I'm still up sometimes thru the night with DD so don't know if I would b up at the sm time every morning to temp xx

Gx91 · 02/11/2015 20:49

Omg Loki ! That looks promising ! Test in the morning with first morning urine and if u still have a line then I would say very possible BFP!! How exciting !!! Grin xxx

HoggleHoggle · 02/11/2015 21:19

Fingers crossed for you Loki!

KikiShack · 02/11/2015 21:35

Let us know what happens in the morning Loki!
I'm a few days post AF so about to start a week of frantic bonking to see if we can make things work this month. Last 2 months we were both out or tired during the peak time but this month we've cleared the calendar and are ready for action. Though we go to PIL for a long weekend on Weds so might have to do some h9rny teenager silent bonking. I am hoping that'll enhance the mood and take the pressure off?!?

Peyia · 02/11/2015 21:37

This is looking sooooo promising!! Faint, but I definitely see it!!!

Well girls I think I missed my surge because I've been cramping and generally feeling off these last couple of days. I don't want to read too much into it but am feeling optimistic Smile

Gx91 · 02/11/2015 21:40

Lol Kiki hope u get some excitement out of it it's really important to enjoy urself even tho the TTC business can make it difficult good luck for this month!! Xx

Loki17 · 03/11/2015 06:30

BFN this morning. It must have been an evap. Sad I don't trust these cheapie tests, they are due to go out of date so probably aren't reliable.

HoggleHoggle · 03/11/2015 06:46

Sorry Loki, though hopefully it's just a test problem rather than an actual neg?

Peyia that sounds promising! Sending good thoughts your way.

I have no symptoms whatsoever so don't think I'm pg though it would be lovely to get a surprise. The early symptom I had last time was excruciating boobs and I def had that for a few days before testing.

Loki17 · 03/11/2015 07:36

I think last night's test was faulty. I dunno. Will test with a frer on Thursday.

Gx91 · 03/11/2015 08:19

Loki - it's not over yet ! With my first pregnancy I had a stronger line in the evening rather than at night so don't rule anything out X Iv never had an evaporation line before either X good luck for testing in the next few days ! X
Peyia - good luck to u ! I'm not sure either , dtd lots on the day of +OPK but nothing on sun so if my surge was Sunday I may have missed it too , kinda relying on the survival of sperm bcoz bf working away all week X
hoggle - I think it's pretty rare to get many first symptoms so I wouldn't worry , when r u due to test ? Would b really lovely if u got BFP this month especially if ur not expecting it Smile X
Positive vibes all round !! Xx

Gx91 · 03/11/2015 08:20

Loki that's meant to say a stronger line in the evening than in the morning ( not long up ) Confused xx

jp0303 · 03/11/2015 17:24

Oh Loki it's so confusing! I'm still keeping fx for you, I was so excited when I saw your photo.

Kiki, dh and I had to do a teenager style silent one with mil in the next room in our first month ttc #2, I could not stop laughing! It was so much fun and still makes me giggle now. Hope you have as much fun as we did!!
