TTC Feb 2021

[HattieJJ88]

Hiya lovelies 😘

I just wanted to Introduce myself, I'm Harriet I have a 10 month old and had my implant removed today! So we're going to try for another baby 🎉

I'm super excited to be starting the TTC process again and love to connect with like-minded ladies on the same journey ❤️

Hope you're all sane in lockdown 😘 xx

@Dinomama21

@HattieJJ88 same as me I'm not sure how accurate bbt is but then it's my first month of doing and not sure if doing it right 🤣🤣🤣 hopefully we will figure it. Keep testing with opk just incase you get a surge again though

Interesting on the pregnacare vitamins....I took them a few months ago and found my cycle was very long!

@Hayesdays knitting baby items! it's been my lockdown hobby to keep my hands away from googling symptoms and obscure theories on increasing the chances of pregnancy haha. I tell myself its for my niece, but I really know they're for a future baby!

@Markygirl1995 same here! Definitely have it in my head 2022 is baby year

@Alwayshungry95 think its cos there maybe be more of an insight that things may go back to some sort of normality right?? I just wanna be able to go to baby classes etc

Hello! I'm TTC #2, 3rd cycle just started. Taking a break after this month to avoid a Christmas baby so I really hope this is our month. I'm starting to wonder if we'll change our minds about that though and just try anyway.

I’d like to join in! I’ve an almost 3 year old who I conceived on the first month TTC with clear blue digital ovulation tests. I’ve recently realised that if I got pregnant soon my daughter would be almost 4 by the time a sibling was born so we’ve decided to start trying, pandemic be damned! This time I’ve bought the box of easy@home ovulation tests from Amazon as they’re so much cheaper and come with pregnancy tests too. I’m excited and terrified because my daughter has birth defects with no known cause, we had genetics done but found nothing, and her first couple of years were quite difficult. She’s doing great though and would love a sibling. Im taking the proceive conception supplement and a separate folate supplement just to make sure I’m getting extra folic acid. I’d quite like to experience a “regular” pregnancy where everything goes as it should! I’m on CD1 so shouldn’t be ovulating until around the last couple of days of the month according to my app.

@Dinomama21 thinking I'm ovulating today as its dipped

Well I'm stunned I've had no prewarning and it's now brought my monthly forward lol!!

@Dinomama21

Welcome @Lucy236 and @Dyinghouseplant its all exciting! Im on Cycle 3 of trying again, im hoping this will be the month too, im trying to avoid Christmas and January (my DC1 birthday's in January)

@Markygirl1995 oh we are so similar! I think I ovulated yesterday as there a slight drop, I had to do a BBT adjuster because o took my temperature at different times of the day, thanks to DC waking up at 5.

@Dinomama21 I genuinely think this is not my month as I'm now have a period again in in 2 weeks when I shouldnt be 🥺🤣🤣

@Markygirl1995 positive panties on girl! 😂
Is this your first month using all the apps etc.. I was using an app just to track my period. And since adding in temperatures and OPK testing, I've noticed it has changed slightly like my ovulation was earlier than the app predicted and my period is due a day earlier that it first predicted too. I think it'll need a few months of data before getting it sort of correct. When was your AF supposed to be due?

@Dinomama21 I know I'm a neggy noo noo about it haha. Very true what you're saying though I was due af 5th march lol and it's all changed now

@Markygirl1995 no negative nickers around 😂 its all just a cruel waiting game from now isn't it. Will you be testing before AF arrives?

@Dinomama21 well we only DTD last night and going to tonight as I'm peaking but I'm not sure it's really worth testing as we havent DTD much as we should have

@Markygirl1995 it may only take the one time 😉 I'm going to try wait until AF is late, otherwise I'll get really disheartened 🙈
My cycle has been weird this month, TMI-had alot less EWCM than usual, have been quiet dry. But I dont know if its because I'm monitoring everything.

@Dinomama21 possibly but feeling it could be very unlikely. You say I've had the opposite so when I wee in a cup I notice cm in the pot like I've got too much? Strange

@Markygirl1995 you never know 😊
Strange isn't it, maybe its because we are more aware 🤔

@well this is my first time tracking bbt and last month I tracked my ovulation sticks not trying and turned my ovulation was late last month 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Dinomama21 **

Anyone around 9dpo? Just thought I’d post my chart .. but disappointed to see a dip at 9 dpo. Normally a sign for me AF on the way but quite early. Worrying that my hormones are may be out of sync due to m/c. We shall see... also got sore boobs so think could be onset of PMS. I’ve only been off the pill since august and my leutal phase has always been quite short. Managed to conceive in Dec but had a mmc, this is my first cycle since mmc.

@Slk3558 I am 9dpo today! Literally the same as you! Sore boobs like ultra sensitive and bloated and really tired! But these are all my PMS symptoms normally- just trying to think positive and not too much into it! I have to say I HATE the ttw 🤣

@Markygirl1995 I suppose we can ovulate at any time of the month, I think stress etc effects it

@Slk3558 so sorry about your MC. Did you have similar symtoms in December? That's the thing with pregnancy symptoms they are exactly the same as PMS, like @fraanne said. I'm sure with DC1 I didn't have any at all, I didn't even feel pregnant untill I first felt him move and kick. I'm only going to let myself get excited if I have no symptoms at all I think 😂
