Ttc number 2!

Hello! Anyone thinking of ttc number 2? I have a 6 month old baby and don't want a big age gap between babies. AF has been a bit erratic over the past few months but DH and I have decided to make next month the first month of ttc. Anyone else sort of in the same boat?

Fab line loz!

I'm only on Cd3 so ages to wait! Might start peeing on OPKs soon just to get my fix Grin

loztredders · 26/08/2016 18:23

Have a nice weekend MRS!! You could either play the antibiotics card or come clean haha.

Ah that's great Tuna that your best friend is pregnant at the same time!

loztredders · 26/08/2016 18:24

How many DPO are you now sonnet?

Sonnet18 · 26/08/2016 18:52

I'm not sure...got positive opk on wed morning? So I may be 2dpo or could maybe just be 1dpo. So no point in testing until at least the following weekend!

Yea it's tricky to know without temping isn't it.

Hope the week goes quickly for you

Sonnet18 · 27/08/2016 08:26

Thanks...though dd seems to think that 4am is a fun and suitable wake up time so think my week may drag a little as my days are very long at the moment!

Ugh sonnet 4am is way too early :( I really feel for you. I hopeTWW doesn't go too slowly for you.

DH surprised me with a pack of two CB digis last night. And I got my 2-3 weeks. So feeling happier about that. It's made me feel a bit less panicked.

No symptoms really. Other than bloating.

Ttc number 2!
PurpleHaze1 · 27/08/2016 13:34

Yay tuna! Glad it's put your mind at rest Smile

Gah sonnet 4am is so early! DD's being doing 5am starts for the past couple of weeks!

Sonnet18 · 27/08/2016 15:10

Yay tuna! That's great! Now put the tests away and just focus on being pregnant! ugh, anything before half 5 is completely unacceptable! These babies are just so unreasonable!! Wink

Sonnet - I will. Promise :) husband has hidden then other one and said I can have it next weekend to see if it comes up with 3+.

DS was a terrible sleeper for the first year. Then miraculously improved. So now I've been spoilt in terms of wake ups. He's not usually up before 6:30. So I count myself very lucky.

The pregsomnia is gearing me back up for sleepless nights though.

MrsY87 · 27/08/2016 17:46

I've had a lot of bleeding today so sadly think this pregnancy is over for me. Feeling sad but had sort of been expecting it given the bleeding and spotting before and since I found out I was pregnant. Going to make an appointment at the EPU for Tuesday. Sad

Think I'm going to step away from the thread a bit for the next few weeks but will be back once we are ready to start ttcing again. Wishing those of you still waiting for your BFPs best of luck.

Sonnet18 · 27/08/2016 18:17

Oh my gosh, I'm really sorry to hear this mrs how awful for you. We are here if you need to chat at all.
I know this isn't reassuring but you don't know anything yet so just do your best to wait and see. Hope you're ok x

loztredders · 27/08/2016 18:18

Oh no Mrs I'm so sorry to hear that. I've been there so know how you're feeling.

wherethefuckisthefuckingtuna · 27/08/2016 18:24

Oh Mrs I'm so sorry to read that.

Sending you a massive hug. Understand you need to step away from the thread. But if you feel up to it, please do let us know how you get on on Tuesday FlowersFlowers

PurpleHaze1 · 27/08/2016 18:46

Oh mrs I am so so sorry. We're here if you need us Flowers

loztredders · 28/08/2016 13:15

When will you do your last clearblue tuna? It's good news you got your 2-3 weeks now :-)

wherethefuckisthefuckingtuna · 28/08/2016 13:37

Going to do it next Friday eve I think. My wee is never that dark first thing. I tend to get stronger tests later in the day (I can go hours and hours without peeing if I want to).

No idea where DH has hidden the last CB!

Stomach cramps today. Like diarrhoea cramps :( sorry if that's TMI BlushBlush

loztredders · 28/08/2016 17:44

Nothing is TMI on this forum haha

I am peeing about four times a night at the minute so I'd be the same with diluted morning pee.

I still can't decide wether to buy more clearblue but I think I'll just leave it now as if I don't get a 3+ I'll just be panicking and it would prob taint my holiday!

Hope the cramps ease off soon.

wherethefuckisthefuckingtuna · 28/08/2016 18:33

Yeah - I'm up at 3am very morning for a pee at the moment. Not looking forward to when I'm going several times a night!!

When do you leave for holiday? Will you be ok travelling?

Sonnet18 · 28/08/2016 18:59

I think I am about 4dpo...no symptoms to report at all which I assume is totally standard!
Anyone else in the 2ww?!

OP posts:
wherethefuckisthefuckingtuna · 28/08/2016 19:17

Ooh sonnet TWW is excruciating!! I have everything crossed for you.

If it's of any interest, I had a real aching pain around my lower back and tops of my thighs at about 7-8dpo. Could have been implantation?

loztredders · 28/08/2016 20:28

Ok travelling as in because of the sickness kicking in Tuna?

I hope so. My sickness kicks in between six and 8 weeks which is when I'm away so I hope it'll be alright haha.

Ah sonnet. Hope you're managing to keep your mind of it all a little. And hope it's going quickly so far!

Sonnet18 · 29/08/2016 06:58

Ugh sickness is the worst! My morning sickness started at 6weeks last time as well. Horrible. Was so difficult being at work- I was running to the bathroom all the time but pretending I was fine!! So hard to keep a secret!
Well, i have a nice week planned so that should keep me busy. I am around 5dpo...my previous cycles never made it past 8dpo and then AF arrived. if I can make it to the weekend and AF arrives I actually won't be that upset as it means that my LP and cycles are sorting themselves out. Preferably a bfp of course!
How far along are all the pregnant ladies? I keep forgetting! Must be about 4 weeks now?

OP posts:
loztredders · 29/08/2016 08:06

I like your positive attitude sonnet and I really hope that if it's not your cycle then your LP is longer than 8 days :-)

I know it's so hard when you're feeling dodgy to try and hide the sickness from everyone isn't it!
I forgot how old your little one is?

I'm 5 weeks today! :-)

PurpleHaze1 · 29/08/2016 08:29

5 weeks already loz! It's going so quickly Smile

Hope the 2ww goes quickly for you sonnet and you get a BFP (or at least a longer LP) at the end of it!

CD6 now & AF has finished. I think we're going to attempt SMEP this month. I'm temping now too
