TTC 2nd baby anyone want to join?

[everycloudetc]

Age 35
DD age 2
TTC number 2

This is our first month trying I'm on CD15 and no smiley on OPK yet. I'm still sort of bf'ing toddler usually twice a day sometimes once so hopefully that's not preventing ovulation.

Had 2 chemicals before conceiving DD1 so expecting the same again this time round.

Yes definitely. I hate stalking a thread and not knowing the outcome! X

Hi everyone jumping on the bus... :)
Not officially going to start trying until December as don't want to fall to early (now ive said that il jinx myself) as hopefully starting uni again sept 2020 to study midwifery have got an interview at the end of November!
Im 27 and currently have a DD who is 2 in December.
Have spent the best part of 2 months trying to convince my DH to start trying again, as he says we cant cope with DD now but shes nearly 2, cutting her molars so its not easy and everything is just a 'phase' right?
Was last on this forum 2015 when we started TTC DD so excited to be back on!
Hope everyone is okay! :)

So I tested with an FRER this morning and a huge BFN  not even a hint of a line. AF is supposedly due between 3-5 days so I'm very doubtful now even though I was so so convinced! I had so many symptoms that I had this cycle which I havnt had all year since we started ttc. With my son I didn't get a BFP until the day before my period was due so I'm grasping on to that for some hope but I'm quite sure I'm out this cycle

Sorry to hear that @pinkstar01 but it’s not over yet - with my dd I got a faint positive after I’d missed my period, so it’s juat hard to know I guess.

@cracha2412 2 is a brutal age - we wanted to start trying again after my dd turned 2, but between molars and starting to drop her nap she turned into a devil child! We decided to pause, but it did get better. Also - it will probably take time to conceive and then you’ve got 9 months till a baby arrives, so hopefully she’ll come through it.

Hi ladies just catching up, sorry for the BFN @pinkstar01 but it’s still super early you light not be out. I have different symptoms every month and sometimes no symptoms whatsoever AF just arrives 🙄 so I’ve given up trying to track them!

Hi @cracha2412! I remember molars cutting well and my DS is almost 5 now it’s awful for them.

Well I poas today, I don’t even know why but it’s obviously negative 😂. We managed to dtd the day after I O’vd when hubby got home so guess I was just being overly optimistic so just waiting for AF Wednesday/Thursday now.
I’m going to the Drs today to try and move things along with our referral as well as we’ve been waiting ages on tests for DH 🙄 xx

Brought DS to soft play and it’s tiny babies and bumps everywhere 😪

@LauraPalmersbodybag

2 is horrendous isn't it! I think that's the major factor of putting my DH off. she doesn't listen, she climbs everywhere, she bites him constantly and thinks the tv is a climbing frame. We call her the devil child, but yet I still want to try again! but saying that you are right as potentially she will be over 3 by the time the new baby is here so every cloud and all that! how old is your DC now?

@Mrstaylor18 yep they are the devil aren't they. She had her front 2 teeth by 8 weeks I thought yes they will be over and done with, how wrong was I. Shes got 3 left to cut fingers crossed they are through before next year her behaviour is ridiculous. Oh never I hate soft play for that esp when your so broody.

Broody is an understatement after 16 months TTC 😂😂

@MrsTaylor18 :( so sorry have you started anything with the GP? FWIW my friend was trying for nearly 17 months they were about to undergo clomid then she fell pregnant that month. Got my FX for you x

Hello all, can I join please.

27years old
TTC #2 (not so little boy is 7)

Just come off the minipill so I just know my cycle is going to be bizarre at the moment 🙈
Anyone in the same situation?

Fingers crossed for us all 🤞🤞

I went months ago and had a blood test, we’ve been waiting since August for DH referral, we chased it up and it had been sent to the wrong address so we have to wait all over again. It’s just all consuming at the moment.
I’ve been taking soy isoflavones which is the natural version of clomid but no luck with that x

@Mrstaylor18 thank you I'm still trying to keep my hopes up because I'm having some symptoms which I can't explain like hunger and excess saliva and my legs are aching too, which isn't normal for me before AF. Mine is due Wednesday/Thursday so let's see! I've been trying for a year this month and scheduled for a laparoscopy in a few weeks to investigate painful ovulation and pelvic pain so hopefully I'll find out what's going on after that either way. I hope AF stays away for both of us!

@pinkstar01 only symptoms I have is painful boobs and earlier had really bad stabbing in one of them which was pleasant! But that’s neither here or there with pg or af but I don’t think I am this month. Only dtd once the day after I ovulated as hubby was away.
Been to the Drs today, they’ve upped my dosage of crazy pills and referred me to the gyne so hopefully they will find something. One of my friends had a laparoscopy after trying for 3 years and she got pg the month after so they think it must have cleared a blockage or something so might work out well although it’s not very pleasant!

Hi all,
Well I got my opks and have been dutifully testing twice a day since cd11. Now on cd14 and nothing.
I did have a CP last month so I guess I could be a bit skewed by that but really thought I might have seen something by now.

Anyone had any experience of ovulation after CP?
I mean to be fair I will never done opks before so I don't know what day I normally ovulate on...
Oh it is so confusing 😟
Xx

Have you had any near positive? What time of the day are you testing? Xx

Testing early and late afternoon. Had some very light lines. Nothing anywhere near positive though xx

How long are your cycles normally? It could be the CP. have you had any other signs like ewcm? X

Normally 28/29 days. Do feel like something is gearing up...maybe I just need to keep testing? Would you count first day of CP bleed as cd1? Xx

I'd keep testing for a couple more days it might just be a bit delayed. Yeah I would count that as day 1.
Hope you're ok, I had a false positive a few months ago and it absolutely did me in. It's really tough xx

I will do. Yeah I'm ok. Im trying to be grown up about it. We've got a beautiful little boy and I'm truly blessed with him. If anything it's made us both realise how much we want little brother or sister. Neither of us are getting any younger so it's focused us if anything xx

You don't need to be anything about it! You should deal with it in whatever way you need to, this whole process is so intense, be kind to yourself xx

thank you - its hard isnt it? we saw that line, and rushed out and got the clear blue and saw the 'pregnant'. And I know it was super early, but you work out dates and all that....and then not only do you have to tell yourself (after hours of googling 'can I have a very late implantation bleed', and dealing with increasingly unpleasant bodily functions) but telling Mr Scrolling was gutting.
However....I do believe there is some progress on the opk side of things....

Yes that definitely looks like a nearly positive to me  hopefully will be darker tomorrow! Xx

Hey,
My dd1 is now 5
And have been trying for second baby for nearly 2 years 😔 mc 1st November last year. But no luck since. 😔

Thanks @mrstaylor18! I will let you know!
@RPC28 - its so hard isnt it? and so emotional! Have you been charting / opking? xx
