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.

Latium those positive OPK's sound like you could be the next BFP, like you said it's unlikely ovulation at this point in your cycle!!! Fingers crossed for you tomorrow. **

Good luck with your test tomorrow Latium def sounds like it's worth having a try !
Look forward to know how u get on ! Smilexxg

8 dpo tomorrow. Practically zero symptoms. My achy boobs feel less achy so I think that was just a symptom of the post ovulation progesterone surge. My nipples feel a little tingly and strange, but I did a 15 mile charity hike with work on Friday so I think that could be chaffing. I'm certain the little twinges I'm getting are normal - I'm just noticing them because I'm desperate for a bfp. With dd, I had a heightened sense of smell and I felt little electric shocks in my tummy. Chocolate made me feel sick. I noticed the shocks at about 6/7 dpo (i think if was implantation) and the other symptoms at 9 dpo. Tested at 10 dpo but got BFN and then at 11 got a faint bfp. I haven't experienced any of that so far so if I don't get any of them by Friday I'm not going to be hopeful of a bfp by Tuesday. The spotting has stopped though so hopefully that is a good sign!

I'm eagerly awaiting good news tomorrow! Sounds like there could be some BFPs on the way Smile good luck ladies.

Loki- sounds like u probably r pregnant if h got a faint line , think it's unusual to get a line at all if ur not preggers , look forward to hearing how your next test goes Smile good luck xxg

Gx91 · 06/10/2015 23:02

Gd luck to u jp !Smile I'm also very excited for everyone on here ! Il b testing tomorrow too so hopefully at least one of us gets our very wanted BFPGrin xxg

HoggleHoggle · 07/10/2015 06:51

Good luck everyone!

I won't be testing again for a while as it was depressing me! And costing a fortune...

Will do another if nothing by the weekend, I'll be more than a week late then.

Loki17 · 07/10/2015 07:44

Gx I think I've confused you. I was comparing my lack of symptoms this time to the symptoms I had when pg with dd. My dd was my faint line! I hope I see the same this time but can't shake the feeling that it's not our month.

Gx91 · 07/10/2015 08:46

I'm sorry must have read it wrong , still wishing u luck for this month Grin

I tested again this morning still nada , I'm not testing again til the wkend now it's doing my head in ( not a nice way start to the day ) Sad
Will still be reading to check if any of u lucky ladies get ur BFP ! Xxg

Latium123 · 07/10/2015 17:59

AF has finally turned up, a week late. Disappointed but also relieved I have an answer!

Confused about what this means for next month though - usually have a 28 day (or v occasionally a 30 day) cycle...this month it was 35 so will I ovulate later next month or should I assume this long cycle was just a blip? Also I guess next month I can't assume late = pg, maybe my cycles are getting longer?

JellyBaby26 · 08/10/2015 21:29

I would order some OPKS Hoggle, that way you can be sure x

Latium123 · 08/10/2015 21:34

Sorry to hear that Hoggle, that's a shame.

Have you tried monitoring fertility signs to help with identifying when you ovulate? I find cervical mucus the most reliable way of telling when I ovulate.

Onwards and upwards. Good luck for next month and as somebody upthread suggested you could perhaps treat yourself to a lovely glass of wine now that AF has arrived. Wine

beckslovestimmy · 08/10/2015 21:53

Ahh rubbish news Hoggle . Not sure what it means for your cycle. I used to have alternating short/long cycles. In the end (and now) we just try to DTD every other day from the end of one period to the start of the other. Fingers crossed for your next cycle .

jp0303 · 08/10/2015 22:26

Unlucky Hoggle, it's disappointing isn't it, hope you're ok Wine and chocolate for you. I think that you & I might benefit from OPKs, my recent cycles have been 28 - 35 days, very confusing.
