Baby no3 (trying)

[SJH2018]

Hi all,
So me and my husband are ttc baby no3. We are very lucky and have one of each already 7 & 3. I just love having babies & the whole pregnancy experience.

So anyway... it just doesn't seem to be happening we've been trying since the 2nd week in July I came off cerelle and had a period on the 17th aug now I'm beginning to over think things like I'm too overweight (I've been on slimmingworld and lost 2stone already down to 13st now) or maybe I suddenly can't have children anymore. Husband is telling me it will come in time but I just needed to talk to someone & hear some happy positive stories.

I'm not very I tune with my body so I don't really know when I'm ovulating etc. I've got the flo app which is helping but not sure how correct that is as id been on the pill for almost 3 years.

Thank you 😍.

Sorry nothing to tell but we are so alike! Trying for baby number 3 myself one of each and I've lost the same amount of weight on slimming world! We have been trying for 3 months had a miscarriage a month ago nothing on the scan unfortunately! Hopefully we get our baby number 3 soon xxx

So you've been trying 2 months? It can take perfectly healthy couples up to a year to conceive. The fact you already have 2 children indicates that you are very likely to go on to conceive another one.

Not meaning to be cruel but have some patience. If you're worried you could try ovulation sticks to try and work out when you ovulate, but otherwise just try and have sex every other day and I'm sure it'll happen soon.

Also congrats on your weight loss. Even a 5% reduction in weight can impact fertility so I'm sure that will help too. Good luck.

@Bethany0903 so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Can't even imagine how that was!.
Glad to hear I'm not the only one that over thinks though. I have my fingers crossed for you! Please keep me updated!!

@ivf2019 thank you I know I should just be patient partly because I conceived my two quiet quickly I probably feel like it's taking so long.

😍

Helllloooooo! So glad I’ve found someone else who is ttc baby number 3. I had my coil out two days ago and now officially trying for number 3. I have two with my previous partner who are boy and girl 7 and 6. And my partner has a 13 year old girl. So nervous but excited xxx

@fayeandben I find it hard finding people who are trying for no3. Good luck I hope it happens quickly for you.
I've been feeling sick some mornings and sore boobs but I'm due af this weekend ( I fit a test this morning and it was a BFN 😭. I'm so impatient!

Xx

im terrified you know! such a big step going from 2 to 3. plus we have an older 13year old who keeps saying she hates babies :( and we better not have one. that should be fun telling her when we do - if it happens! i wont know if its worked this month until this time next month at least you can find out soon hahahaha good luck!!! xxxx

Im trying for a third dc as well. My dc are almost 5 and 6. I know loads of people that have had thirds. It seems everyone is having a third, at least in my area and people I know. Some even have a 4th!

Also trying for a third! Have 11yo ds and 2yo ds. Both previous pregnancies were concieved the first month of trying, and I've just started my first 2ww this time round. Worried though as I'm older now and chubbier than I should be. Fingers crossed for all of us

Here's to hoping!
Good luck
Everyone!! 😍😍

hi guys, update! ovulating today! boyfriend will love me tonight!! hahaha, having cramps too so great sign im releasing!! xxx

We tried around ovulation but I have suddenly landed a new job (started yeserday) which includes an adventure holiday (abseiling/leap of faith kind of thing) and its the week before I am due AF. So slightly worried I might be pregnant but doubt the activities could cause damage? Also, guessing if I am pregnant, its too early to qualify for maternity pay?

Ooh have fun tonight Faye!

no, doesnt matter how long you have been with the company you are still qualified for maternity. i wouldnt mention it though until at least 12weeks. dont worry about activities though. exercise is great but obviously i wouldnt be doin it past 12 weeks once you are showing. i wouldnt anyway xxx good luck if you are xx

I can test on Saturday I'm so nervous guys!! 😬 So hoping were having baby number 3 xx

Ah thats good then. When do you test, first day your period is due? I cant remember! The app Im using says my period is due in 9 days..

i think clearblue u can test couple day before period is due but id wait unito day after period is due so it certain. im excited but my god im bricking it!! hahaha

My af is due tomorrow.... let's see what happens enjoy tonight @fayeandben 🤪

I don’t understand all this abbreviation so me what’s AF mean. And ds lol. I’ve enjoyed myself past 4 nights now. Ben doesn’t understand I only ovulate one day. What doesn’t hurt won’t kill hahahahaha

@fayeandben same with my husband hahaha I get away with a full week 🤣 good luck @SJH2018 I really hope you get a bfp 😬 xxx

@bethany0903 what’s bfp lmao
