Hello all :)

I am back in the hell that is my tww 😂

A little about me then, I am past the age of 30 Wink have an almost 3 year old ds, and we have been on and off ttc for a couple of months or so!

Hey. I'm 30 and on cycle 2 of TTC. Currently 4dpo so just counting down the days! Hard to distract myself but I'm trying my best. Almost like a duck...calm on the outside but underneath I'm going mad. Hahhahahahaa. I refuse to test until 14dpo

hannahintheworks · 03/08/2017 13:05

I'm in the tww too! I'm 27 and TTC #2. I have a 19 month old son and this is our first cycle TTC. Good luck ladies!

cookielove · 03/08/2017 14:34

I think I am around 4dpo too or maybe 3 I am trying not to think about it, my app says to test on the 15th! But that feels ages away and I am pretty sure I will test before then 😂

Hey Cookie I remember you from the Sept '14 post-natal threads! Good luck with TTC.

My dd turns 3 in September and DH and I have just started TTC this week Smile

cookielove · 03/08/2017 16:10

Awww hello apples I thought I was the last of that group to go for a 2nd or whatever :) nice to see you Wink

The way ds is behaving today, not sure I want another one! We need to get out of the flat!!

hannah 19 months 😮😮😐

ApplesTheHare · 03/08/2017 16:34

Cookie Nice to see you too Smile I feel the same about another 1... very excited about the prospect having made the decision to go ahead but also terrified Shock

I re-visited the old thread the other day for the first time in ages and Cumbrian is about to start ttc as well. I'd also assumed everyone else already had 2 but was glad to be proved wrong. I'm hoping a bigger age gap means dd and hypothetical new baby both get a bit of individual attention rather than being very close in age and constantly competing like me and my sister did.

hannahintheworks · 03/08/2017 16:38

Yes Cookie - I am so broody and would like them close together. Plus my DP has said once we are out of the baby stage he isn't going back so need to have them close together!

dowhatyouwish · 03/08/2017 16:43

This is will be my first and I'd like two close together. Saying that...I will see how I get on with one first Grin

cookielove · 03/08/2017 16:55

Yes now ds is potty trained and in a bed, it is scary thinking of going back to the baby days! He has however stopped sleeping through so still a bit like having a baby again!

apples I lost the old thread could you post a link?

Hi Ladies,

Can I join you? I'm also in the 2ww and trying not to symptom spot, Google anything related to x days dpo feelings and I'm not testing until I'm late!

I'm 34, have a 14 month old and this is 2nd cycle TTC.

cookielove · 03/08/2017 20:21

Hey ladies I'm also in the 2WW! CD20 so guessing 5DPO? I'm ttc #3 madness! Used Mumsnet ttc #2 which took a painful 2.5 years 😩 Only on cycle 1 of ttc as just had BC removed. Feel like I'm going crazy already and it's first cycle need you woman to keep me sane!!! X

DoAsDreamersDo · 03/08/2017 22:08

I'm 5dpo if my ov date is correct. AF due at the end of next week so I'm well into my 2ww now (these months seem to be speeding up!).

MrsLadyL · 03/08/2017 22:19

My AF is due 12th if my app is correct. What apps do you all use? I'm so confused this time and hopeless been trying to use OPK 😩 x

Timpani · 04/08/2017 09:01

I'm in.

Been lying low for a bit. Cycle #5
TTC#3
DC1 = IVF
DC2 = natural
DC3?!?!

Hoping for another miracle. Am in my 30s.
We've shagged a hell of a lot this month...

dowhatyouwish · 04/08/2017 09:02

For anyone who has been pregnant before...when did your symptoms start to kick in...

ApplesTheHare · 04/08/2017 09:40

cookie this should be the link though I'm on mobile and my phone sometimes rebels: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/postnatal_clubs/2605536-September-2014-Toddlers-Tantrums

dowhatyouwish it's different person to person and pregnancy to pregnancy but last time I had symptoms from about 7 or 8 weeks. Only found out I was pregnant by chance though because I had to have a test for something else, the symptoms alone at that stage weren't enough to make me test, just something I'd noticed.

MrsLadyL · 04/08/2017 09:45

My first symptoms where my boobs!!! I never get sore boobs with AF but by god they hurt like someone was holding ice on my nipples haha oh and the veins don't get me started they were pure blue couldn't miss them. That how I knew with #2 straight away xx

cookielove · 04/08/2017 10:48

I was easily upset around the time i got a + pregnancy but really symptoms didn't kick in until I was 7 weeks ish!

I have been pregnant twice before, my first pregnancy ended in a mmc discovered at my 12 week scan! So I had three months of symt

OP posts:
cautiousoptimist1 · 04/08/2017 11:12

My first symptom was the crazy sense of smell. I could smell milk across a room as soon as it was opened. If I get that again with number 2, I have no idea how I'll cope with DDs nappies!

MrsLadyL · 04/08/2017 11:33

Oh yes the smell!! Super heightened I did get terrible migraine with #2 x

Jaynexx22 · 04/08/2017 12:22

Hi guys can I join in too :)

I'm 5dpo currently and desperately goin to try to hold out to 14dpo before testing!!

This is our 5th month ttc, after a month of no tracking last month after having an early miscarriage .. needed the time to get my head clear and it was quite nice to not be POAS every morning!! So going to hold out as long as possible this time :) xxx

Timpani · 04/08/2017 13:21

I'm due AF when I'm away so will just refrain from testing anyway. If it's not showed I'll do one when back.

With dc1 I had symptoms very early on. Like 3 weeks. However, I was very very ill from the IVF and drugs so it was most likely that.

With Dc2 I had symptoms from about 6 weeks.

cookielove · 04/08/2017 16:20

Sorry toddler posted for me and then we went out
