TTC #2 (August bfps)

[Impatientmummy36]

Hi all, here we are again :)

New thread for all those ttc second babies.

Good luck everyone this cycle! xxx

lopey I also use fertility friend and think it's v accurate. Used to use ovia but stopped now.

Fingers crossed syd and lopey spotting which is unusual sounds positive for implantation!!

Now 2 weeks late, should be ovulating today, done an OPK and there's nothing. I feel like my cycle has just stopped completely, just as we've started TTC, and I'm gutted, I don't know what to do :(

Ovaries the exact same thig happend when we started... it was 2 weeks late amd when Fibally arrived I calmed down waiting eagely to ovulate on the date it should have happend my period srated again... you can imagine we were preparing to bd ina couple of days.. and af again!!! Absolutely awful.. like a dagger in my heart. I have no ide what happend. Keep testing lh surge must come later on. I ovolated last month on cd 21!!
Keep the faitht!!🌷🌷

Hi ladies, ovaties that sounds stressful I hope af or ov appears soon! Bodies can go haywire after contraception.

Feeling sad today found out someone else I know is pregnant. Heartbroken, just long more than anything for it to be me

Sorry Ovaries. I can imagine the frustration. Aaah Mother it's hard when you want it to happen so badly for yourself. I'm 6 days past ovulation and have no real symptoms of anything. Mild twinges and slight backache. Ni sore boobs or anything. Usually I would be cramping and my boobs would be very sore at this stage as it gears up for af in a week or so. Ive given up on uderstanding what's happening with my body!! Hang in there ladies. Sooner or later we will get our Bfp! Baby dust to everyone xx

It's so tough mother - a friend just had her second and I'm so envious. nubian I'm 5dpo and desperately trying not to symptom spot. Baby dust to those still in with a chance this month

Have just been catching up. Hope everyone is okay, just going into fw here, luckily DH isn't working away this time.

mother so sorry about the CP, it's understandable to be sad. Hope you're doing okay.

ovaries really hope at turns up soon. It's so frustrating being in limbo.

lopey have you tried agnus castus to help with a short luteal phase? A friend recommended it to me as my cycles have been super short and after taking it for a full cycle I had a 28d cycle for the first time since before DD was conceived.

Hi all,

Still no full blown af for me - spotting for three days (none today so far). Still haven't tested and I know people will think that's crazy but I just so don't want to see a negative test. Would rather wait for af.

Still only 1 day late so could still come.

If no full af tomorrow morning I will test then. I will be 15 dpo so surely by that point, neg means neg and pos means pos....? Just don't want any ambiguity. And if it's a chemical then I really don't want to know....

I thought I'd come on when I went to the toilet in the supermarket yesterday....then spent half an hour sitting in the cafe with oh and DS trying not to cry and ruin a nice day out! I know the pain and emotions everyone is going through. I was heartbroken when I saw red blood on the pad. But since then nothing.

I am very very very cautiously optimistic....either a really really short and strange af (basically just spotting), a late one still to come....or something could be going on in there!

June, thanks for info, I do use Agnus castus (since the first time ttc three years ago) and it has helped with my luteal phase: went from 10 to 12 days. However I more recently always get this spotting before af for one-two-three days of luteal phase, and that concerns me a bit. I read it could be down to diminishing oestrogen or perimenopause and all manner of other scary things....so I stopped reading....!

Good luck all, will keep posted on my result, good or bad, tomorrow x

Good luck for tomorrow Lopey. Will have my fingers crossed for you. Baby dust xx

Good luck Lopey, I really hope it's good news for you!

Mother, I can so relate to what you're going through. I'm on a family weekend away at the moment with the in laws and my sil has used the weekend for her big special announcement that she is pregnant. I'm finding it really hard to be happy for her which is awful :(

Good luck to everyone else waiting to test x x

No good news from me folks, sorry. Tested this morning and negative; swiftly followed by af. What a weird cycle. Never had a 14 day luteal phase in my life before! So this is good, if it stays. Onto cycle 7. Rubbish.

Hi can I join,

Cycle 1, I have been off contraception since jan. However not actively trying just seeing if it happened.
26
Ttc 2
I have a 20 month old girl
AF due Wednesday
Don't think it will be positive.

Lopey sorry about af. That sucks. All the best for next cycLe. I'm not holding much hope of a Bfp this cycle either. Have the familiar sore boobs indicating af. Not as painful this cycle though. Af due saturday I think. Don't really feel any pregnancy symptoms sooooo I think I'm not this month. It really sucks arg.

Welcome Cupcake . Let us know how you get on Wednesday.

Baby dust xx

I got the static smiley today 🙁 I knew it would come on the weekend so think that's us out again. Can DTD tomorrow night but don't hold out much hope catching the egg then! And somehow don't think the swimmers will have lasted since Wednesday night - I just want to go away and sulk!

So sorry lopey AF arrived at least your leutal phase has got longer! Welcome cupcake

Sorry Lopey, our bodies can be so cruel. Wine tonight might help. Good news about the longer luteal phase, hopefully next cycle will be yours x x

Welcome cupcake! And keep positive Nubian, you never know. The second week of the 2ww is just the worst isn't it? I'll be keeping everything crossed that it's your month. Hope you catch that egg Karpuz!

Thanks Kashy. Thanks for reminding me to stay positive. Very hard sometimes

Welcome cupcake! And keep positive Nubian, you never know. The second week of the 2ww is just the worst isn't it? I'll be keeping everything crossed that it's your month. Hope you catch that egg Karpuz!

... as of tomorrow I will be off to Hungary for 10 days...by the time I will be back I should know what is happening.. not sure to take a test with me or not...

Mito I'm in Portugal for 7 days and did NOT bring a test with me. It is doing wonders for my sanity! I'm more relaxed not poas. Enjoy Hungary x

Also just wanted to say thank you for those who recommended the app fertility friend! It predicted it spot on! X

Sorry for disappearing. Af came yesterday (another 43 day cycle...!) so we're on to cycle 17.. ehhhh. Was pretty devastated yesterday but getting over it now.

Sorry af got you too @lopey, but glad lp is getting longer for you.

we're planning to dtd every second day after af finishes NO MATTER WHAT.

Thank you for the reassurance a few days ago :) still no sign of anything but different cm today so going to try another OPK, see if there's any sign of some kind of progress!

Hi

I've just tested and I'm not pregnant this month.

Ah sorry cupcakes those bfn are always so demoralising.

Wow syd I so hope this month is your month I would be officially crazy by cycle 17. Were you one of the ones in the group awaiting tests? So hope you get your bfp.

I am worried I'm not getting bfp due to stress. But then I try hard to relax which obviously has the opsite effect... couldn't sleep last night heart was racing no idea why. I am so frustrated as I don't know what to do to minimise my anxieties! (Not about ttc mostly, about other stuff like work, moving house)
