Fertile Feb!

[LouzieC]

Anyone out there want to join me in trying for a successful Feb?! I’m sure there are loads of us out there can can support and answer questions :)
I’m 35, TTC #2 and have been trying for 4 months or so. My Son is almost 16 months so out of that baby stage which was so much fun (although this age defo has its perks).

@filthyforfirth

I am trying for my 2nd. I know I’m getting anxious too about getting to 35. Although I know quite a lot of people who have got pregnant aged 35 plus so I’m holding onto that plus trying not to google or read too much about fertility drop. It’s very hard isn’t it to not get worried. I got pregnant straight away with my first so already anxious that I’m on cycle 3 but keep telling myself it’s normal and early days

Yeah it is really hard. It took me 8 months last time, I was really hoping I was due a 'straight away' this time!

TTC #1
30
Cycle 3

Waiting for AF due on Tuesday .... BFN this morning with FRER but extreme nausea since 7DPO, currently 12 DPO

I would like to join please! Came off pill just 2 weeks ago am 37 (!) and TTC #4. It's such a rollercoaster isn't it? Very best of luck to everyone.fingers crossed.

@torypops, I too had a BFN on FRER today. AF is due Thursday and I feel like it's a no this month for me!

Wishing you all baby dust this month. 🤞

@Jese89 it's so hard, I'm ok until I test and see a BFN the. The whole day is ruined. How long have you been TTC

Can I join?
TTC no 2. Ds is 3. 13 yr old DSD lives with us too.
I was 39 a few days ago! We’ve not been using contraception for a while, but not properly trying.
We decided to commit to it a bit more this year and gave it a good effort around my fertile time. I think I’m about 7-8 dpo.

I’m getting a bit more anxious that it might not happen. We’re pretty happy with the 2 we have at home, but the thought of not mothering another baby makes me sad. We’d also like for ds to have a sibling closer in age.
I had horrendous HG in my first pregnancy, so am also slight terrified of that again.

Great to meet you all on this. Nice to know we are all in the same boat this month.
I'm on CD6 now and estimating ovulation on CD15 so should I try Dtd every day til then or is that unrealistic?! What's everyone else's game plan??

Actually on CD7.

@torypops, I understand what you mean. I am just trying my hardest to ignore the test result and get on with my day. I will say each time it's a BFN that that's just one thing extra month of savings...but I'd rather be pregnant, of course!
I am 29, TTC#1 and this is only my second cycle.
Finding comfort in chatting to women in a similar boat.
FX yours was a false negative or next month is a charm!

Game plan is to dtd whenever we are not too exhausted ! I have no clue where I am in cycle or if I will even ovulate this year as just off the pill so completely in the dark! Anyone else?

@shouldntbeonhereagain I came off the pill at Xmas and have just finished my first AF so this month will tell if it's a normal length cycle but gonna keep going dtd as much as possible and cross fingers!
Best of luck x

I'm on board!
Just started AF today so when that's finished back on TTC.

I'm 32, #1 DD 3.5yrs old, currently ttc #2, this will be cycle 17.

kinsella I as far as I remember from ttc #1 doing it every other day and then every day for your 5 day fertile period was a good recommendation for covering all bases. Too often doesn’t help with good quality sperm or something.
It’s been a few years since then, but at that time lots of people were following the sperm meets egg plan (SMEP).

tory and jese I know what you mean about the BFN dissapointment. My PMT symptoms are so similar to pregnancy symptoms. They get me every time, even the months when we haven’t DTD in my fertile time.

@cattaxi and @torypops, it almost feels like your body is tricking or cheating you, doesn't it? Do you guys test every day until AF arrives? I'm tempted to but it costs so much and not sure I want to out myself through that every day...

Do you use FRER or clear blue?

I hope everyone has a great Sunday!

I used FRER YESTERDAY. I'm due AF Tuesday and if no show will test Wednesday.

I just want a baby 😢

Wishing you a positive so much. Hang in there, @torypops.

@torypops everything crossed for you xx

Does anyone else have PCOS and ttc? Xxx

I don’t test jese.

It is very unfair that pregnancy & pmt symptoms are so similar!
I think I’m going to try charging my temp
Next cycle to check that I’m actually ovulating.

Can i join!

I am 35 ttc #4 currently have 15yr old DS, 13 year old DS and a 6 year old DD, want to have a play mate for my DS as she is like an only child with such a gap between her and the youngest DS.

This is 4th month trying, was currently on the pill for 5 years.
Using OPK's for the first time this month to try and nail down ovulation as i think we have missed it the past couple months working off cm alone.

Had a faint line this morning and yesterday so must be heading in the right direction and lots of EWCM today, trying to DTD every other day til i get that strong line then DTD both days.

Hi!
Im 34 ttc number 2, DD is 3 years old, think this is my 3rd month since starting ttc but have lost track a bit, feeling hopeful that this is the month! Got 8 days until i can poas!

Hi there can I join in?

I’m 35, TTC number 1. I’m on day 10 of my cycle and this month is our first attempt. Very nervous as I have no patience whatsoever and want results straight away so I have to calm myself and not obsess.

Good luck all

Hi!

Also trying this month. Will be our second month. Well sort of. He works at sea so was away for last opportunity! Home this week. And have a weekend away booked for ovulation time. Exciting! I'm 30 forgot to say

Hi all, i'm 26 ttc #1 and been trying since Dec. Only been tracking ovulation with the clue app and just hoping for the best really!

Good luck to all x
