Let’s do this!! TTC #2

[Cookiebear87]

Hi all! I’m new here! So excuse me if I’m not using the correct abbreviations 😂

I’ve had my nexplanon implant removed today in order to TTC #2!
I’ve never actively tried for a baby before as DD1 was conceived whilst on the pill! So I’m totally new to all of this and was wondering if anyone wanted to buddy up? I’m told my cycle should normalise straight away but I’ve not been without contraception since 16, I’m now 32 so not sure what my cycle looks like as nexplanon left me with no bleed at all and with the exception of having DD I’ve been on the implant for 6 years!

Any help/support would be greatly appreciated!

@crazychemist welcome!! The TWW is the longest wait in the world isn't it🙁

How’s everyone doing? Everyone have a good weekend?

TWW still dragging endlessly on..... I think it would almost be a relief for AF it show up, I can’t believe I’m saying that! Where is everyone else in their cycle at the moment? Anyone due to test soon?

@crazychemist I've had a good weekend thanks yourself? I'm 14dpo and due today for af, but still no signs of her coming! I'm still so scared to test, but this is the first time I've held out! How about you?

It was ok, very very busy (family of teachers, so reports are consuming any free time). Feeling uncharacteristically frustrated by the length of my cycle, I’m probably just allowing work stress to leak into my personal life and affect how I perceive other things. 5 more days till I should test, and it feels like a lifetime! I need to get a grip! 14dpo and no signs sounds very encouraging! That would make fmu tomorrow 15dpo, can you test then? I don’t think I’d be able to wait any longer than that

Hi Crazychemist and Nicole, hopping on here from other thread

Sounds like you are both holding out to test! I'm only cd21 or something, also on holiday next week so hopefully it will take my mind off of testing! So far I have tested the last 2 months and got AF the next day so this time I'm determined not to test at all!

I've brought two clear blue with week indicators online and they're due to come on Thursday - but I've just brought 4 cheap strips in Poundland and I'm so tempted to do them now but OH wants me to wait! It's just sooo hard!

Hi can I join please?
Periods due to show on the 4th July but My cycles are weird and vary from 25-30 days.
I suffered a blighted ovum in feb and had a d&c so I'm a bit scared that the same will happen again. We've been trying from the offset but nothings happened. We have two daughters aged 5 and 2.7.

Hi lego, I'm due about that time too. Hopefully this will be your month!

@Wrigleys123 oh good luck. It's nerve wracking isn't it

Hi there lego. Sorry to hear about your loss. That must be quite scary for you.

Sounds like this thread will be quite active at the beginning of July (fingers crossed!). I’m still feeling horrifically impatient, cd35 and I reckon I’m due to test at the weekend.... I have a day off on Thursday and I know I’ll test then as I just won’t be able to resist! So distracted from everything else in my life.

AF showed up today. Damn. On to the next cycle.....

Argh sorry to hear that Chemist

Booked in to have my implant removed on Tuesday

Hey @NicoleP95, we didn’t hear back from you - no luck this cycle after all? Sorry if that’s the case

@legolife and @Wrigleys123, are you surviving the TWW?

(Can you tell I’m vicariously hoping for some good news!?! )

Surviving two week wait here thanks! About day 26 I think, reckon AF is coming soon as the classic signs are there! It's annoying I can't remember my symptoms from last time I was pregnant, wish I'd taken more notice

Hey ladies sorry I've been quiet I've been house sitting for my sister and her dog for the week and just got home today!

@crazychemist I still haven't come on but a pregnancy test showed negative, so I'm not to sure! Still not having period pains either! It's a strange one, I've got the clear blue advanced digital ovulation kit and the conceive plus kit sat in my amazon basket just waiting to come on so I can order it and get ready for this cycle! Hope you're well? X

Hello!

Trying for number two here too! This is month two of actively trying. Daughter is 25 months.

Last month the OPK’s never went positive & I never had any ovulatory CM, in fact, I barely had any all month .. so I feel like I perhaps didn’t ovulate?

This month, I’d have expected to ovulate on 23rd.. but I’m pretty sure it was late on/around 26/27th. I was on holiday & didn’t have any OPK’s, so more guess work this month!

So now the TWW is a bit confusing. I have very regular periods, 7th of each month. It’d be my first period not on the 7th in over a year and a half! Unless I have a short post ovulation phase perhaps? I’m not one to test early, I wait for my period. But no idea when to expect it this month, sigh!

Good luck all!

Hello there @Bol87, welcome to the thread!

Cd6 here. Nice easy week at work this week, which is good timing at least!

Fingers crossed for @Wrigleys123, @NicoleP95 and @legolife

Good luck for getting your implant removed today @SazCat. Do you have to wait for a withdrawal bleed before you'll know what's going on with your cycle, or is it a non-hormonal one?

It is a hormonal one, Nexplanon. I'm going to ask the doctor if I need to wait for a bleed before TTC. I guess it would make dating easier, but I am keen to start!

It's out! Doc said I can start trying straight away, said I should get a period in around 2 weeks. But if I don't, to take a pregnancy text as she's known people to catch straight away. Can't see me being that lucky though!

Good luck @SazCat! Hopefully you’ll be one of the ones that catch straight away

Hi all, can I join?

I'm in first cycle of TTC #2, my DS is 2.4 so feels like a good time.

Picked up some cheapy OPKs and dusted off my basal thermometer. Currently CD9, so I guess the action starts this weekend!

Hope you're all doing well...

Any news? I've just finished af and ready to start again this month. I've bought some opks to help pinpoint ovulation. Any one else starting their next cycle? Baby dust to everyone!

Hi all can I join ye? TTC #2 cycle 2 cd4
Wishing everyone luck

Just finished my first period since having the implant out So fingers crossed for good news in the next few months!
