Anyone ttc baby #2?

[jp0303]

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.

Thanks Gx i did one this afternoon and got a faint second line, so next few days maybe :) xx

BFN
Still no sign of AF though. I have had cycles that are longer than the average I've taken, so perhaps I'm just too early for AF at the moment.

Good luck testing today Jp fingers crossed for you!

JP - sorry about the BFN they r so disappointing X I wouldn't say u were out yet , what cd is this for u ? And do u know when u ovulated ? I'd give it a few days and test again , really hoping BFP comes ur way xx

Hope u get a darker opk today kellz keep us posted ! Xx

So sorry Jp, not knowing is just so stressful.at least u are still in the running.fingers crossed for your bfp !!!
Gx how are you?is being pregnant kicking in now,it only gets real for me wheni go 4 12week scan. and how is dd soon to big sister ?
kellz how is the bd going,is opk darker now
peyia thanks and keep them fingers crossed,really need a bfp kk.how are today and have a lovely day.

Hey Mimi doing ok today thanks just done all the housework and nd to go for a food shop ! Have to get it all done before it gets dark bcoz I just want to get my pjs bk on lol X DD says she doesn't want a baby lol don't think she gets it ( 2 yrs old) will probably take her to 2 nd scan so she can try and come to grips with the idea X
How r u ? R u in your TWW ? How long til u can test ? Really keen to see how u get on ! Any wierd symptoms ? xx

Sorry jp though I hope that it might just be a longer cycle and too early to test. Still crossing fingers for you!

I'm just into the second week of intensive dtd in case I have another long cycle and haven't ovulated yet. I'm totally exhausted to be honest and ds hasn't been sleeping. If it doesn't happen this month I'll definitely put more effort into opks. I'm too tired to have such regular sex to be totally honest!

Hi Mimi & Gx second line was darker but still not quite a positive. CB still said low though. CD13 today so hopefully i ovulate soon x

Hoggle - I know wat u mean , hard to want to do anything besides sleep at the end of the day , especially wen our little angels aren't sleeping Xx
Kellz - sounds like its on its way lol enjoy the baby dancing ! Xx

Hie Gx am in the tww with no more symptoms.hope your day was good.pjs are the way to go.so comfy hey.i too practically live in mine.might do your butternut soup tonight
hoggle good luck on your intense bd again.u made me laugh when u said u r tired of sex ( aren't we all).hope it will be worth it.fx
lots of bding for u tonight kellz enjoy !

Sounds perfect , pjs and butter squash soup lol your going to have a good night lol wishing u all the best at the end of TWW everything crossed for u Mimi ! X

Sorry Jp, I'm still hoping for you!

Glad to hear everyone is doing well but yes just being a mum is tiring so all the feeling sexy is hard work. I'm just sick sick sick, hate to complain though

Oh dear Peyia should settle down after first trimester I know that's still a while X
Have u got a date for ur 12 week scan ?
My booking app isn't til 11 Dec waiting patiently ....
Struggling to find meals that take my fancy at the moment , it's really doing my head in , just bought baked potatoes coz they don't smell when they cook lol xxx

Thanks everyone. This is cd30 and I have had cycles up to 35 days in the past, so perhaps it's a long one and AF is just a few days behind schedule. I have no idea when I ovulated. I will start using OPKs in the new year, any recommendations about which ones / best ways of using them would be much appreciated if anyone has any wisdom to share.

Jp- I bought the cheapy ones from savers ( 5 in a pack for £1 )
Nice and cheap and work just fine , saves a lot of money if u don't know ur cycle length and nd to pee on one eod xx

Hi all, hope youre all okay! Cd13 here and still no positive opk, just faint second lines. But a few days to go. Plus after all the waiting to ovulate i will end off with an impatient wait with my tww haha. Xx

Thanks mimi and g!

Had the 'night off' yesterday and ds slept so much better so feeling more positive for tonight.

In other positives, ds just opened an advent calendar for the first time and the radio is playing Christmas songs. Hard to be down with things like that

What a lovely start to the morning Hoggle, particularly after a good nights sleep

AF arrived, so that's me out. On the bright side I'm going to making the most of the festive season and Christmas parties[santa] then I will be going on a health kick in the new year and getting on board with the OPKs.

Christmas baby dust all round.

Hoggle - that does sound like a great start to the day ! Think I'm gona put the Christmas classics on today u have really got me in the mood ! we r on the countdown to Christmas ! [santa] x

Jp- sorry AF arrived but ur right , u can make the most of of the Christmas celebrations ! I'm going to really miss the prosecco , wine and baileys and being stone cold sober around the drunks lol new year fresh start sounds so refreshing aswell and I'm sure the OPKs will help u too xx

Aw jp that's rubbish, I'm so sorry. But definitely yes to boozing up for Christmas! Also the early pg stage is just such a worry (it was for me anyway) that you can at least now totally enjoy festivities without having a nagging anxiety. I'll be telling myself the same thing if it doesn't happen this month.

I've also made mince pies so I'm well and truly feeling Christmassy (in actuality I was also hiding in kitchen for warmth as we currently don't have a front door. Brrrrr)

Jp thats rubbish hun sorry.

Gx being sober at Christmas is rubbish. In 2012 i was 8 months pregnant at Christmas, so could barely enjoy my meal as Keira took up my whole tummy lol.

Well a wee update i got my positive opk today yaaaaaaaay xx

Congrats kellz ! Ul b busy tonight again then lol wishing u luck if ur trying to get pregnant this cycle! X
Ur right about being sober at Christmas , gona b tough if I was past the 12 wk mark I'd have 1 glass of fizz but won't b so no alcohol full stop this year xx

Gx hubby works nights but i woke him up far too early hut when he knew i was ovulating he didnt mind lol.

Because i was so far on, i had a glass of bucksfizz. But i was so fed up i wasnt in the mood anyway lol. Xx

Aww ur DH sounds lovely lol I'm a Crabbit wretch wen I'm woken up , good for u guys ( that's love)
I know the last month of pregnancy is the worst! Just feel so fat and useless and just want baby out! Lol hope it's not a hot summer or i could b really uncomfortable by the time I'm 8 months! Xx

Im such a witch when woken up but hes always so good, no moaning or anything.

Oh goodness i know! Well if we manage to get a bfp this month ill be due August, but luckily in Scotland theres not much summer lol

Xx
