I'm so so excited to start trying for baby no.3 I'm struggling to keep it quiet. As soon as that clock strikes midnight I'm pouncing on DH My youngest is coming up to 6years old so I feel like I'm new to all this trying lark. Any advice welcomed 😊

So exciting. I'm expecting my second next month.

I found the clear blue ovulation kit really helpful, gave a good clear result. (I used them with cheaper ones as they are a bit pricey). Also, preseed - we caught first month using that.

I guess number one is just have a lot of sex throughout the month lol.
Good luck xxx

@Yakadee oooo I'll definitely be getting some pre seed. Did you take any vitamins before you started trying. Congratulations to you! What an exciting time xx

Yes I did, the seven seas preconception ones. A bit cheaper than pregnacare (although I'm taking those now pregnant) and were totally fine for me.

I know, very excited! Can't wait to meet my little girl x

Ideally you should take folic acid for 3 months before TTC. Good luck!

@Yakadee I had the conception pregnacare when I was trying for my son but I've just bought the "trying for a baby" sevenseas so will see how I find those. @AlocAcoc thank you Smile

Thank you! I thought I'd be so relaxed and laid back this time but I want it yesterday 😂

Good luck! I’m also trying for a third, my youngest is 5. First two times it happened first try so it took ages to convince my husband to start trying! But of course now that he has agreed to start, it hasn’t happened first try! We have now tried 4 cycles. Although, only two of them we actually tried before ovulation lol. The other two we did the day after, so I knew it would be very slim to work. My advice would be to try and relax and not think so much (easier said then done!!). Take your vitamins for sure now to prepare your body. Good luck!

@Mamabear12 thank you. Good luck to you too. I've just checked clue and realised I'm late by a couple of days. I normally have a 31 day cycle. What with Christmas and new year I wasn't really taking much notice of when AF was due. DH has been pulling out until we was ready to properly start trying this month with the mind set that if it happens it happens. I feel a bit crampy though 🤦🏻‍♀️
