[expatvet]

Hi guys... here we are, shiny new thread for all those TTC while breast-feeding or recently weaned (for pumpkin and I!!)

come on over!

Ooh! It could be jp....but agree best hold on a couple of days than test and get another negative just because it's too early. Everything crossed xxxx

Cd13 here...opk still negative BUT got definate ewcm this afternoon so jumped dh before heading out for dinner...fingers crossed for O soon!!!!

Smiley face on my cbd this morning...Yeah! Now all I can do is bd and keep my fingers crossed! Hope everyone has a good weekend (still in shock here over brexit)

Fingers crossed for both JP & expat

That's great news expat, enjoy your weekend

I am starting to cautiously believe now

Oh congratulations jp so exciting! Hope it all works out for you

expat devastated over eu ref, feels like a living nightmare

Congratulations jp :)

Wohoo congrats jp!

Thanks girls, I hope there is a few more you that follow me too

Congratulations, JP. Such good news. Wishing you lots of luck for a happy and healthy pregnancy.

Hello all! Room for another on the thread?

Although ideally I'd like a bigger age gap I've agreed to stopping trying NOT to get pregnant as DH would like another DC soon.

AFAIK I'm not fertile as no AF yet - DD is still a massive boob fiend and still bf's all the time (cosleeping too).

Plan is to keep an eye on cervical fluid and see what's going on, with an eye to properly ttc in the autumn. Any tips / advice gladly received.

Stats are:
Age 28
TTC #2
DD 14 months
Not really "trying" yet!

Congrats JP ! Wish u a very happy n health pregnancy !
Welcome oracle nice to have a new member !

Thank you Cineraria and pumpkin, I will hopefully have some graduates following me soon too. It doesn't seem to have affected my milk supply so hopefully everything will be ok. My ds I think would be devastated if the milk was all gone.

Room for a little one. Just started trying as my first period stopped yesterday. TTC no2. DD is 4 months old and has slept through since 3 months so no night feeds for a while. A bit concerned about milk drying up so interested you go hear how you go jp xx

AF arrived today
But first real month trying n didn't get very clear results from ovulation sticks

Hi, another newbie here.

Not currently TTC but planning to start in the next month or two. We have one DS 14 months old who has pretty much stopped breastfeeding of his own accord in the last couple of weeks (sob).

I came off the mini pill at the start of April with a view to letting my body sort itself out before TTC but am yet to see even a hint of a period so am expecting things to take a little while this time around. We were very lucky with DS to fall pregnant first cycle. Thankfully I feel a bit more laid back this time - the primal need to be pregnant RIGHT NOW isn't as strong so I am hoping to not stress and be happy to go with the flow.

I have been taking Agnus Castus for a month or so in an effort to encourage regular periods to return, and am taking folic acid.

Ps hi Oracle

I'm about 8dpo today, tender boobs, nursing aversion, and a bloody dreadful temper. Absolutely everything is annoying the shit out of me.

Another newbie wanting to join!

Age: 24
TTC: #2
DS 9mo

BF around 3 times a day and 3/4 times through the night. Not using any contraception but rarely DTD due to crappy shifts/tiredness/co sleeping. Also no PP AF yet but have started to have CM so maybe things are happening?

Congrats to those with BFPs, you give me hope that it is possible whilst BFing/weaning!

Hi napping! waves

What's the deal with taking agnus? I've read mixed things about it. Has anyone found it to be useful in bringing back their cycle?

So sorry to hear that Pumkin, take care and be kind to yourself. Next month is a new month.

That sounds like me last week gardencentre so wishing you luck.

Welcome aboard napping, firsttimenewbie and Aries I hope this group is lucky for you all.

Welcome oracle, first time, napping, aries.

Sorry about AF pumkin here's hoping we have more BFPs on the thread this cycle.

Lovely weekend here but DS totally off his usual schedule and wouldn't sleep til after 9 last night then up at 12, 2, 4...and ended up BFing more than once. Trying to get back on track today.

garden hope the rage is a good sign

Welcome oracle, napping, firstime, aries!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS jp!!!! That's such great news!

Everything crossed for you garden..

Sorry pumpkin a new month answer another try.

I'm a bit miffed as only managed to dtd on Friday then between a busy busy weekend with friends staying and DH getting a bit drunk on Saturday when we had lots of people over for a braai (grrrrr) etc etc it just didn't happen again. Miffed. A one time wonder is pretty unlikely so have very little hope this month. I'm pretty sure I'm 1dpo good luck everyone xx

Expat any chance of DTD today just in case?

Pumpkin sorry to hear AF showed her face, here's hoping next month is luckier.

expat my DD was a one time wonder, it only takes once so you never know :)

Hello ladies! Can I join? :)

I weaned my 14 month old 2 months ago, just got my first postpartum period last week.

TTC #2, Cycle 1, Day 4

We had been trying since my son was about 8 months old but it just wasn't happening. Can finally get started now!

Baby dust to everyone :)
