Trying for baby number 3

Hi mummies

I'm in month two now of ttc my baby number 3, I know it's not been long but I'm nearly 30 and I'm worried that i won't be able to get pregnant again ☹️ did anyone else feel like this? I went through the whole tww last month and this month I'm trying to be a bit more casual about it as I STRESSED last month ridiculously. I hated trying to track ovulation and dpo it was alstreful absolutely expensive with pregnancy tests I got a bit obbsesed! Any support would be lovely

I'm a housewife who currently has my two children already 7 year old girl and 9 year old boy, I am so desperate now for a baby though it's giving me anxiety the thought of not being able to have another xxx

@Skl2021 I think ideally I would like to book in for. 8 week scan to see if it’s looking good then tell him..... but the most likely outcome will be I will tell him straight away! Aww don’t be thinking like that! This could be the month because you have been more relaxed... as I said before I have a feeling... I think you and @Nats7504 will hit the jack pot and leave me behind!! 🤣🤣

That’s brilliant new nats! I bet your relieved you have finally got it! It was pretty dark! Try to squeeze in today and twice tomorrow 🤣🤣
I’d love to test now, but I know it will be a bfn as it is wwwwaayyy to early! Do the cheapies even pick up low levels of the hormone? Xx

Skl2021 · 09/05/2021 13:09

@Springflower3 yes I don't know if I could keep it from him 🙊 and he knows around when I would be testing so would have to lie to him 🤦 aww noo don't say that!! All three of us could get lucky!! 🤞🤞 Keep positive! Does your cheapie not say what mui it is? Xx

Nats7504 · 09/05/2021 13:14

@Skl2021 I suppose I should use it? It cost a fortune and today is the day! Lube me up baby 🤣
@Springflower3 I love your positive vibes, I hope we all get out BFP 🙌 I’m getting bored now! We’ve covered ourselves this month so we’re all in for chance at our Jan 2022 babies 👶 xx
Look at this bad boy line! 🎉

Trying for baby number 3
Skl2021 · 09/05/2021 13:19

@Nats7504 haha you are hilarious 🤣 bad boy line!! Yes get your moneys worth out of it 🙈 I'm so glad I can relax now 🙌 now just a long wait for us all!! Hoping something positive happens for us 🤞🤞 need to keep entertained now for it to go faster xx

Springflower3 · 09/05/2021 13:21

Yes @Skl2021!!! @Nats7504 you have to use today! Without alcohol on board will you just insert yourself 🤣🤣 there is nothing off limits on the threat I swear!
I’m trying to stay positive, I don’t think it will happen this month as I’m not that lucky! My temp continues to rise but apparently that happens for the first 3 days then drops if you didn’t ovulate 🙈 xx

Springflower3 · 09/05/2021 13:22

@Nats7504 I meant to say that a fine looking line, also nice nails!!! 🤣🤣 xx

Springflower3 · 09/05/2021 13:23

@Skl2021 we need to think of another topic..... to distract ourselves... even from the symptom spotting 🙈 xx

Nats7504 · 09/05/2021 13:27

@Skl2021 I’ll give it a go and fingers crossed it works as it’s a right faff. I’ve got days worth of shagging left to do 🙈 No relaxing for me. Haha
@Springflower3 I think I’ll have to insert it. He’s not a fan of it and I look like total shit today so don’t want to put him off anymore than the sight of me alone 🤣 Ahh, thanks lovely. That’s the only thing that is looking nice today 🙈 xx

Springflower3 · 10/05/2021 12:13

Happy Monday ladies!
How’s the symptom spotting going? 🙈🙈

Skl2021 · 10/05/2021 13:41

@Springflower3 hey! Erm I had lightening crotch yesterday which I hardly ever get 🤣🙈 and my cm is getting thick tmi!!! 🙊 I think I'm thinking into it too much as I'm only 3 dpo nothing has happened yet 🙈 what about you xx

Springflower3 · 10/05/2021 13:46

@Skl2021 what is lightening crotch! 🙈🙈 aww mine was that too! But has defo decreased!!
I’m feeling a bit meh today! I just keep thinking I need to get to Sunday then I can test and see what the crack is 🤣🤣 i defo felt crampy this morning but could be my jeans are too tight 🙈🙈 xx

Nats7504 · 10/05/2021 13:59

Afternoon ladies 😊 Happy Monday! Lightening crotch 🤣 I got that with my youngest son as he was breech until a week before my section and then turned. 🙄 His feet left like they were coming out of my foof!
I’ve got nothing to report. Took another OPK today and it’s defo faded so looks like either yesterday or today is ‘O day!’ 🥚 xx

Springflower3 · 10/05/2021 14:50

@Nats7504 you may get the pre seed out tonight 🤣🤣🤣
Do you feel bloated or anything??
I have that feeling as if my period is gonna come.... it’s like mild mild cramps and heavy if that makes sense? I felt wet earlier and actually has to go to the toilet to check! Xx

Skl2021 · 10/05/2021 15:03

@Springflower3 like a sharp shooring pain going up you 🤣🙈 what dpo will you be on Sunday? Hard to not wish it away isn't it.
@nats7504 sounds about right you bet get busy again 🤞 your not far behind us now xx

Springflower3 · 10/05/2021 15:16

@Skl2021 what do you think caused that??? I’ve never heard of it!! Are you feeling positive?
That will make me 11dpo..... so not unreasonably early considering the apps are saying my period is due potentially Monday or Tuesday 😬 yea like you just want it to be here so you can either be excited at the BFP or move on from a bfn! Xx

Skl2021 · 10/05/2021 15:28

@Springflower3 not sure haha IV only had it a few times 🙈 don't know if I feel positive 🤔 IV done all I can so we will see. Just feel like it's going to take months and won't happen to me 😣 yes that's a reasonable time I thought u would have tried before that xx

Nats7504 · 10/05/2021 15:56

@Springflower3 @Skl2021 We didn’t use it last night so best crack it open tonight. Get my moneys worth! Although I really can’t face it, we started DTD too early and clocked up 5 BDs by last night! I’ve still got a few more to go as I’ve probably only just ovulated 🤣 I don’t feel any different if I’m honest but I’m usually ok until around 7DPO and then become a symptom spotting psycho 🙈 xx

Skl2021 · 10/05/2021 16:03

@Nats7504 I do not know how Ur still going 🙈🤣 your going to be well covered 🤞 I only do it until 1dpo maybe I'm not going long enough?! Yes same with me I can handle the first week it's the second where I get the urge to test test test xx

Nats7504 · 10/05/2021 16:09

@Skl2021 I’ve realised this SMEP approach is hard work. It’s killing me but DP is loving it. Do they ever get sick of sex? Mine bloody doesn’t.
I usually stop the day after I get my peak but going to DTD a few days after Incase I ovulate later. I’m winging it and after nearly 6 cycles I’m
willing to try anything! Xx

Skl2021 · 10/05/2021 18:36

@Nats7504 I tried that but with long cycles I couldn't keep up it killed me 🙈 yes oh would do it all the time anytime 🤣 it took me 10 months with me first and I tried everything and anything 🤣🤞🤦 this month I haven't done it half as much as the other months xx

Nats7504 · 10/05/2021 18:55

@Skl2021 It’s hard going isn’t it? But I’m stupidly starting to panic even though I know other people have been trying so much longer. Just worried I’ve left it too late as I’m 37, would be 38 by the time I had a baby.
They say the less pressure you put on yourself the more likely it will happen xx

Skl2021 · 10/05/2021 19:01

@Nats7504 yes they say as soon as you relax and stop trying it happens but its so hard to do that. I feel like I'm wasting the month if I don't try 🤦 I'm sure your age will be fine don't put any more pressure on yourself!! Hopefully this thread is lucky for us all and we don't have to keep doing this 🤞🤣🙌 xx

Springflower3 · 10/05/2021 19:33

Aww @Nats7504 don’t lose heart!!! As you say @Skl2021 hopefully this is a lucky thread!
Once you put the effort in to track etc how do you stop 🤷‍♀️ I think the more you know the harder it is to step back!
Oh shit you guys have me panicking cause we only done it the day after!!!! You guys are on the ball! Xx
