9dpo and cramping ttc driving myself mad hoping this is baby number 2 on the way

[Nls90x]

Hi everyone,

As above 9 days dpo and experiencing cramps. Stupidly bought 20 one step tests online and have been secretly testing every morning for two days.

Recently had a chemical I have a 19 month old and we are ready for bundle of joy number 2 .

Is it normal to be this crazy and hiding testing so you don’t look like a mad woman lol

For all those trying I wish you all baby dust in the world :) :) :) I just needed to get it out there x

Morning, how is everyone?

Currently 10dpo and I feel a bit sick this morning but it might just be anxiety sickness as I'm back in work, who knows!

Morning @Pr24

All is good here thanks!! Glad it's nearly the weekend and I can put my work laptop away for a few days!!

I'm still working from home - and will be for the rest of the year!! Not the easiest with a 18m old but I'm loving spending time with him

It's not good feeling sick but 🤞🏻 it may be a good sign xx

@Lynne425 oh I bet! Enjoy your weekend off! I've also got an 18month old, they're so busy aren't they haha

@Nls90x

Thank you!! Good luck you too when your tww starts! This one has been so bloody stressful for me! I'm at 9 or 10? Dpo and been thinking I'm out but still feeling weird with so many symptoms maybe it's all in my head!!

11dpo today and negative test.
Is there an actual reason why it's taking so long to get pregnant again? Tracking ovulation, dtd the right days etc but still nothing. I didn't expect it to take this long

@Pr24 how long have you been trying? Is it your 2nd?

@LaceyMermaid this is the 6th cycle now and yes baby number two

@Pr24 I take it it didn’t take at long with #1 then? Frustrating for you. I think it’ll take me longer this time if at all, but I’m 38 so a lot older than I was when I last got pregnant (nearly 13 years ago). Are you tracking your cycle taking your bbt etc?

@Pr24 sorry just read again your tracking. Are doing bbt?

@LaceyMermaid noo we caught straight away after I came off the pill at 22, 18months ago. Ready for baby number 2now and the excitement is fading every cycle. I haven't tried bbt yet but I sure will next month! How long have you be trying?

@pr24 I’m sure it’ll happen but there are some things I’ve read about you can try? Definitely do your bbt beciase thet is the most accurate way to know if your ovulating. Opks only tell you your body is gearing up to do it, but it might not be. Bbt will confirm it. Also in terms of ewcm (gross I know) if you want to increase it (apparently it really helps) then try drinking some pure grapefruit juice every day until you have oved. Then once you have drink pomegranate juice for implantation everyday until 10DPO. Also eating a few Brazil bits and the core of a pineapple everyday until 10dpo helps with implantation too.
Sorry if it all seems a lot but might be worth a go?

@Pr24 this is my first month really because last month I was waiting for my first period after having my Mirena removed. I always got pregnant really quickly with my others bit tomes have changed I would imagine! You’re young though so I’m sure you’ll be fine

@LaceyMermaid that's all really helpful thank you! I'll definitely give them all a go, especially bbt!
Ahh right I see, good luck to you! Hopefully you'll catch quickly again too xx

@Pr24 that’s ok it’s just little bits I’ve read from people. Bbt is the big one as you will know then if you are definitely ovulating and when. It might be you are ovulating a little later than you think or something like that. Anyway you’re young and I’m sure you’ll be just fine. And you’re not out this month yet 11dpo is still early for a bfp!

@Emmaemma23 that's what I was like haha every single thing I was like this is a sign if I was being extra moody I was like hmmm mood swings 😂

Hi everyone I've started a new thread and changed my username :) xx

@Minnie296

1 dpo!!!! .................

Hi I'm 8dpo. Too impatient too 🤣 I'm been testing since day 5 even tho theres no way there would be hcg then!
I've got a 2yr 4months old son.
Been trying since before christmas, it took 2years last time so I'm hoping it's a bit quicker this time. I get safe every time af comes to visit

*sad
Not safe..autocorrect

@Wifeofbikerviking
1dpo but my crazy head still told me to POAS 😂😂
If it gets me through why not!!! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️
8 dpo so hopefully some good news very soon for you xxx

@Kitkatb0808 😅ah well at least if we test every day will know as early as possible haha

@Wifeofbikerviking hey!

My DD is 20 months and I'm wanting a second I want her to have a little friend :)

I had a chemical in June so hopefully the next one sticks.

Good luck wishing you lots of baby dust!

@Kitkatb0808 I am not jealous at all you get to POAS 😩😂 I'm in a dilemma I want to go on holiday in June next year so think I might have to put it off till December! Then I would be 5/6 months pregnant. I think a family holiday is needed as we wouldn't be able to go anywhere until the next one is around her age xx

Ladies are you there?!! Xx

@Kitkatb0808 I'm here how's it going? Xx

@Minnie296

Crap!!! Looks like I am 2 days early this month been peeing on sticks like no tomorrow feeling pained!!
How are you feeling any news??
This thread went quiet so guessing peed off or loads of bfp happened!!
Miss the chats!!! Xxxx
