TTC and 2ww

Hello ladies! So we're currently trying for baby #2. Came off implant in december. AF showed 1st February then again 30th March. My friend suggested the app Flo. According to the app if im regular i should have ovulated around 12th. We DTD every other day from AF finishing. Now im having mild cramps in lower belly. (I think its in my head though!) Just got to enjoy the 2ww (yayy)
Anyone else ttc and their brain finding symptoms everywhere?

Yeah i didnt bother with them for that reason hun.
As horrible as this may sound, you're meant to be more fertile once youve had/lost a baby xx

Well that was only my 3rd cycle after my miscarriage. Think I'm just gonna take a break from it all until I get my hospital app through.

The other month I was 6 days late and got so excited. Normally I'm 28 days on the dot.
Need all the baby dust. Just bought an OPK kit to see if I'm actually ovulating. This is getting close to a year in summer of nothing.

LoveRainbow02 Gosh I'm so sorry to hear that. At least you're not in limbo anymore. Fingers crossed for this montn

@love oh hun im sorry :(
Maybe it's the trying? Some people say when you're full on trying, that can affect it too?

@maisy yeah, im now 15 days late and still bfn. Not hopeful anymore. Test will show whats wrong on tuesday i suppose.

Losing so much cm its unreal so maybe AF is on the way? Hubby doesnt want to try anymore for reasons ill never know so just isnt meant to be. Hope ill get my second baby in the future x

@pocketfullofsunshine Yeah the trying really hard is beginning to stress me out now. I'm just so desperate to be pregnant again with a healthy baby but the stress isn't good for me. I'm not going to temp or use opks at all until my IUI app comes through. I don't even wanna know when I ovulate now coz I'll turn into a crazy person again in the TWW lol.
Sorry to hear your hubby doesn't want to try anymore. Maybe with time he will get back into it.

Hope you're enjoying your weekend away hun!
Just to update i think AF might have got me. My discharge is going a browny colour so unsure what that is. X

@pocketfullofsunshine I'm just home from my weekend away. Had an absolute blast and relaxed completely which was the main reason we went lol. Did af turn up? My bleeding stopped on Friday night and on the ferry home tonight I've started spotting and cramping again 😔.

Hey hun!! Glad you had a good time!
No still no show. Had cramps friday followed by brown spotting for a little bit yesterday and today? But not af? Really confused
And oh? Thats really strange with the stopping and starting? X

LoveRainbow02 · 14/05/2017 21:20

Jeez that's a long time you've gone without a period. Are you going back to doctors or just going to wait it out? I think it may have been the travelling that just disrupted my cycle over the weekend.

Got my blood test tomorrow hun. Currently on cycle day 47! :(
Unsure why my spotting is stopping and starting :(
Test on friday was yet again BFN, so another week to wait "/
19 days late for AF :(

LoveRainbow02 · 15/05/2017 11:12

Hopefully you get some answers from your blood test. I don't know how you have coped all this time lol. My spotting was starting and stopping then I got my af.

Yep, got my visit from AF this morning :(
Was so hopefuly aswell. Ah well. Can enjoy my holiday now. Hopefully DH decides to change his mind about not trying in the future. Absolutely gutted :( xx

LoveRainbow02 · 15/05/2017 15:45

Aw no, sorry hun!
Yeah hopefully he changes his mind in time. It is a stressful thing ttc but maybe when you both have your holiday you will be relaxed enough to try again when home.

Yeah hope so. AF is still really really light. Only there when i wipe and still mainly that colour? Had a bit of red in it yesterday but thats it. Havent even got a pad on haha. Still got to go to find out whats going on and need to get the tablets to stop my period by the looks of it. X

OP posts:
LoveRainbow02 · 16/05/2017 09:46

Are you sure it's your period if it's still really light? When are you due to go on holiday?
I'm entering my fertile week soon according to my app. Still not using opks this cycle and I feel quite good about it lol.

pocketfullofsunshine · 16/05/2017 11:25

Well i officially got my period today :(
horrible!! I did hope it was maybe implantation bleeding. Got my hopes up again :(
And If I have a 28 day cycle ill be entering my fertile week on Thursday while we're away.
But I don't think I'm completely regular which is half my issues at the minute.

LoveRainbow02 · 16/05/2017 12:20

Urgh sorry for af! It's hard not to get your hopes up isn't it. Our bodies don't half play horrible tricks on us. Least you know what's going on now and are starting a fresh cycle. Just enjoy your time away and relax.

That's annoying ladies! Why do you think that was?xx

LoveRainbow02 · 16/05/2017 16:11

Hi hoping 😊.
I had a chemical unfortunately. I ovulated really late into my cycle. Guess it was just an off cycle for me. Should be gearing to ovulate soon according to my app.

hopingforabfp · 16/05/2017 16:56

love sorry to hear that! Hope you catch this month! Xx

LoveRainbow02 · 16/05/2017 17:11

Fingers crossed x

CatRen27 · 16/05/2017 17:23

Hi ladies been a bit remiss lately but I've tried to limit the obsessing I was doing and just relax a bit. I didn't do any opks this month and did the bd as often as possible. Feel less stressed in the tww and not symptom spotting!

Sorry to hear af arrived @love, another cycle begins.

Good luck everyone fingers crossed and baby dust!
