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).

@Explorers10 I’m exactly the same! If I don’t get pregnant this month I’m going to the doctors. I know I’m only on 3rd cycle but because I have a time frame, I’m going to ask to be checked out.

Explorers10 · 05/02/2019 17:21

@scottish1

It's frustrating isn't it. My AF is due this Friday, really hope I don't go into cycle 4! When is your AF due? Is it not till 2 weeks away? I was so naive and didn't realise it would take long to get pregnant as my 1st happened straight away first try. I got my fingers crossed for you

Scottish1 · 05/02/2019 17:43

Aw! Thank you @Explorers10 Fingers crossed for you too! You are close to finding out-exciting! I’m still on cd11 Getting high fertility on monitor for two days now so dtd every other day and then 3 days in a row when I get peak fertility then one day off and one last day (smep)

I had this romantic notion of how it would be ttc but couldn’t be more wrong! 😂

Keep us posted! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

LouzieC · 05/02/2019 21:01

Best of luck to you Scottish1 must be frustrating having a timeframe. Yes, romance is certainly low down the list whilst TTC, but hopefully just as fun! X

Best of luck @Scottish1 everything crossed that you are successful very soon x

Samk92 · 05/02/2019 22:03

Hi, I’d like to join in for a successful Feb 🤞🏻😃...
I’ve been TTC for a year and have just started taking some new supplements.. The vital dha zita west and some coq10. Does anybody else take these? I’ve read mixed reviews .. Xx

cattaxi · 05/02/2019 22:04

I tested today, but it was negative. I don’t usually bother, but I’ve been feeling really nauseous. It’s obviously just the cold I have. My cycles are pretty long, so still another few days until my period is due.

scottish we’re also on a bit of a time frame. Have decided that if I’m not pregnant by the end of the year, we’ll give up and concentrate on what we have. We’re both starting to feel pretty old as it is!
There is a bit of relief in knowing I’m out for this month. I find the not knowing worse than the actual knowing.

Scottish1 · 06/02/2019 06:32

Thank you ladies 😘 Hopefully we’ll all get there, eventually!

@Samk92 I’ve just started taking unbiquinol as only read good things about them. I was thinking about taking baby aspirin but read s many mixed reviews about them so going to speak to doctor first.

@cattaxi Fingers crossed for you! 🤞🏻 What cycle are you on? X

Samk92 · 06/02/2019 06:35

@Scottish1 yes I’ve been reading good things about those to. I’m waiting at the moment to be referred to the hospital for more tests etc.. so just thought I’d start to take things whilst I’m waiting. I’ve heard that the dha can regulate periods a little more so hoping that’ll work for me.
Who said making a baby was easy hey? Ha ha
Xxx

cattaxi · 06/02/2019 06:44

scottish I don’t really know how many! We’ve not used contraception since June. But had a bit of a tough run of things over the autum with lots of stuff going on. So I can’t say we really tried every month. Ds was concieved pretty quickly, so this is starting to feel long.
Oh well, all we can do is give it our best shot I suppose. It makes me really sad to think I may not hold / feed another baby.

Good luck with the supplements. I think I might look into some next cycle.

kaytee87 · 06/02/2019 07:05

Got a static smiley today. Will dtd tonight and tomorrow night.

When is everyone planning to test? When are people's AF due?

FilthyforFirth · 06/02/2019 08:21

I'm not using OKP yet, so going by an app and two different websites I am ovulating today, tomorrow or Friday! Dts Sun and Monday, too tired yesterday so will dtd tonight and Friday.

My period is due on the 22nd. It comes on the 22nd, like clock work, each month. Reaaaaaaaally hoping I am this month, would be perfect timing for me.

Good luck to anyone testing today!

Bluebell9 · 06/02/2019 08:38

AF is due on the 22nd too.
I've just entered my fertile period, according to the app I'm using.
This is the first month tracking my BBT and temp is still normal.
Trying to DTD most nights, so DP is very happy!

FilthyforFirth · 06/02/2019 09:01

Ooh lets hope we are Bfp buddies @Bluebell9! I have an 18 month old and work full time as does DH, we are both too tired for everyday! Might have to next month if it doesnt work this month.

lizzie198 · 06/02/2019 09:44

@FilthyforFirth and @Bluebell9 I'm at the same point just entering fertile window and af due 22/02 😊

Herewegoagain84 · 06/02/2019 10:25

Af due 24th for me. Trying SMEP this cycle! I’m on my second day of CB flashing smiley...

Bluebell9 · 06/02/2019 10:51

Fingers crossed for BFP for us all on the 22nd @FilthyforFirth and @lizzie198 (and 24th for you @Herewegoagain).

Scottish1 · 06/02/2019 13:39

I’m on 3rd day of high fertility on CBFM and Ovia app saying 2 days until fertile window. Dtd every other day but hubby is flagging already!!!!! How dare he! 😂

Not testing this month unless Af doesn’t come. Looking frwd to reading about all your bfps 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Bluebell9 · 06/02/2019 14:24

@Scottish1 thats what I said last month but I ended up buying a load of cheap tests so I could use them to satisfy my need to POAS!

Scottish1 · 06/02/2019 16:34

@Bluebell9 I know, it’s easy to say now but let’s see what I’m like at the end of tww 😂

tilly98 · 06/02/2019 16:52

Ovacado23 · 06/02/2019 17:21

Hi everyone! Im new ;) been reading here a while now and thought id share. Its so nice to feel like there are others who are in the same boat- i swear if my dh rolls his eyes once more he doesnt get to help with namesanyhoo..
•26
•Ttc #3
~~ds 8 and dd 6 - been desperate for just one more but we've been waiting for the right time. We were so young when we became preg with our #1 (and got caught inbetween the implant and coil with #2) guess i thought i was super unlucky -cringe- back then to get caught unexpectedly twice. Id give anything to fall pregnant that fast this time around! Little did i know how much effort goes into actually ttc.
•Had the copper coil for 6 years.

•Technicaly the 3rd cycle but ive been trying to convince dh for 4 years- he agreed in july and we tried to get the coil out straight away but it wouldnt come out! 5 months later and 4 different attempts (twice with anesthetic) it finally came out Dec!
Really went at it in dec and jan CONVINCED i was preg both times ss like mad, but as a poas addict i did get a bfp last month but af came like the bitch she is the day after.
Currently 2 or 3 dpo not quite certain but trying so hard to not poas or ss too bad before 22nd (which is when im due also ladies)
So spreading some baby butter around this thread and good luck to you allFlowersHalo if you regognise this exact post from another thread i apologise i posted in the wrong one Grin

coconutlatte44 · 06/02/2019 17:27

Congrats @tilly98! When did you test?

I am due af on either feb 12 or 13 but telling myself I will wait until the 14th to test. Holding on tight so far but still have a week to go!

Been really crampy yesterday and today which I am not normally until the day before af so keep imagining it's implantation ... Smile
