Following on from our last (many) threads, this is one for anyone hoping for a Christmas baby number two.

My stats -

Age: 35
Cycle: 24+ lost count..
DC: 3yo this month
AF due 19th April
Not a hint of a bfp in that time

I'm charting now and send myself crazy every tww so come join me for the bumpy ride x

@bambamber thank goodness no infection, but still it must be pretty rough and tiring. The acupuncture didn't really hurt, it was a sort of weird feeling, and I felt really relaxed. If they start and you hate it you can always tell them to stop, so might be worth a go? You can get some acupuncture on the NHS (mine was through NHS at the hospital when I was preggers) but not sure if it's for TTC rather than pregnancy related.

Sooooo.... dtd last night. Will probably avoid tonight though 😆

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 09:53

Gillian1980 welcome! and good luck! FX that is implantation bleeding for you.

newmama2018 haha you managed it then?

We DTD last night, FF says Im fertile now too so FX this is our cycle! Just booked our wedding for 29 May THIS YEAR and I would love to be all happy with pregnancy on that day

newmama2018 · 06/04/2018 09:56

@TwittleBee it might have been a mistake but my consultant said "crack on" and it didn't hurt at all. I'm back at work today too so it's not like I'm ill either. I'd have been back yesterday if I could have been.

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 09:57

newmama2018 ah well if you feel fine then surely no reason to hold back tonight either?

newmama2018 · 06/04/2018 10:02

@TwittleBee the escaped spermies seem to have picked up the dried blood 😆 I'll see how he feels tonight. He has low morphology (3-4%) so I'm not sure how often is good for us to DTD.

mayago · 06/04/2018 10:24

newmama that's pretty impressive! I really hope this is your month after all that!

No spotting here CatRen, just broken out in spots! It's quite unusual for me though. Feeling rather strange, but tested today (10dpo?) and got a BFN so who knows what's going on. I had a nice line at 10dpo with DD...

Twittle congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Pregnancy glow would be an absolutely fantastic addition!

Bambamber thats a rough situation, and I'm not sure what I would do. It could be a rough pregnancy, but it would be worth it? Flowers

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 10:33

newmama2018 ah yeah good point, isn't it meant to be every other day they get fully restored.

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 10:34

mayago thank you! so excited! Sorry you got a BFN today, super hope you are just too early despite having a line with DD at 10dpo, every pregnancy is different they say

CatRen27 · 06/04/2018 11:31

Exciting twittle! Congrats! You'll either have the pregnant glow or the champagne glow, either way its a glow 😉

And sorry mayago for getting the wrong end of the stick and for the bfn. Boo! Hopefully better news tomorrow

That's exciting @TwittleBee!

Was it a FRER you tested with @mayago? Fingers crossed it's too early - every pregnancy is different and this one could have implanted later?

mayago · 06/04/2018 14:32

Holding out on the FRER yet soda. I found some cheapies with a decent sensitivity in the cupboard.

Not holding out much hope - I've gone terribly pessimistic this afternoon. A bit unusual for me, but it's turning out to be an odd cycle Confused

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 14:49

mayago I am hoping an odd cycle might mean a lucky cycle for you

sodababy2 · 06/04/2018 14:54

Urgh internet cheapies are rubbish may I literally wouldn't bother! Never got a positive with them in my chemical cycle but got good strong FRER positives plus digital positive!

CatRen27 · 06/04/2018 15:02

This is slightly off topic but i just had to single handedly take out a massive spider (I'm in Australia) that was crawling on my wall. I'm not even sure he's dead! Aaarrrrggghhhh

CatRen27 oh don't! how did you even manage it, bloody terrified of them

Happysbno4 · 06/04/2018 15:30

Hello All
Sats:
Age 38
TTC#4
Cycle 5
first with DP
AF due 17/4
My older kids from 1st marriage in the house, not making this easy.😣

I'm getting concerns about my age health. Last month just before af I had leaking boobs now waiting on breast exam. Although think this is due to raised Prolactin? Regular 26-28 cycle.

Hoping for some magic fairy dust this month as I'm not getting any younger!!!😃

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 16:03

Happysbno4 hello! I think we can all sympathise that its harder to actually find time to DTD this time round

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 18:22

Just got a +OPK. 5 days earlier than usual! Bloody glad we DTD last night, had a sneaky suspicion it was gonna come early as had my acne break out a lot earlier (usually 3 days before Ov) plus all the EWCM! TWW here we come.

Pinklily1 · 06/04/2018 20:37

Congratulations on booking your wedding twittle!

may, sorry it was a bfn. Are you going to hold out a few days and test again?

new, I’m very impressed you DTD! Hope your recovery continues to go well.

cat, eek to the spider!

I’ve done another opk today, and was really surprised by how dark it is. I got a vague like about a week ago, then negatives for a few days, then this. Does this look positive to you guys, or maybe need another day?

Also, welcome to happy. What would be your age gap between new baby and next youngest if you conceived now? Hope the breast exam appointment comes through soon for you.

bambamber, that’s a tricky one. If you had the removal now, what the predicted recovery time/ earliest you could start TTC again?

TwittleBee · 06/04/2018 21:04

Pinklily1 i would take that as a positive (meant to be same colour or darker isn't it? And looks same colour to me). Perhaps last time your body was trying to ovulate then didn't quite get there but this time it will be? Looks like we are Ovulation twins Grin FX this TWW ends with BFPs

sodababy2 · 06/04/2018 21:08

Definitely positive Pink! Get on it! Wink

Pinklily1 · 06/04/2018 21:16

Woo hoo! Right, will need to pin OH down tonight Grin It’s only my first full month off the pill so I had no real clue what was happening when!!

newmama2018 · 06/04/2018 21:20

@Pinklily1 I'd be pinning him down and getting your groove on! However I'm the one who has sex the day after surgery so clearly I have no limits!

I'm going to do an opk tomorrow to see what the crack is with ov. Someone said I would ov later this month due to surgery but I have a ton of ewcm so I'm hoping it's good signs.
