Hello all,

Today is my first month of trying to conceive my third. Me and my partner decided at the beginning of the month that we are ready for another child.

I am currently 4dpo I believe. According to my app, I was supposed to ovulate on the 16th however my clearblue ovulation test showed a peak on the 18th. I tested that morning and it was negative then that evening it was positive. Then the next morning it was negative again. I'm guessing my LH surge must have been a short one.

I'm not exactly sure when I'm due my AF as the dates have changed on my app due to ovulation being later than assumed. But, it is stating that I should expect it on the 2nd of Oct. And oh boy does that seem so far away. I am becoming so impatient. Everyday I'm forcing symptoms onto myself lol even though it is still so early and implantation has not taken place yet. This waiting game is sending me crazy. Time is going too slow.

I need some testing buddies. Is anyone else due around the end of this month?

Please do rant away - I am bad with advice sadly as I feel like I don't know what is going on myself. First two pregnancies were easy!

To twist the knife when I started bleeding, the few maternity bits I ordered arrived . Ugh

@Nailingnow That's so fucking shit. I'm so sorry :( Sending you a big hug (only if you like hugs)

I hope your DH is taking care of you.
If you want to talk more about it we are here x

@Nailingnow Yep, same here first two conceived very quickly. I don't think that would be the case this time round!

Oh no about the maternity bits! Just pop them in a cupboard, lock them away. But not for long. I'm sure you'll have them about again soon. I'm sorry if that's insensitive to say, just trying to be positive x

It is shit isn't it!! I'm grateful i found out this early but I was on cloud 9 all last week.

My DH is trying but doesn't really get it or understand the upset. He thinks I read the test wrong to begin with (I didn't).

I keep battling in my head that I'm going to stop at two , but I know I do want a third so will be trying again next time....

@Nailingnow so sorry to hear this news. Hope you are ok. It’s a horrible feeling just make sure you rest and take care of yourself. Men don’t understand, it’s not their bodies.

@TTCyay I would get checked out at the doctors now or at least make them aware of the situation. Have you reported your symptoms on the yellow card scheme? There are so many other women experiencing the same things as you after this jab they need all the information they can gather. So sorry you are going through this I wonder what’s happening. I’m sure I will be pressured into having it by my midwife but little does she know how stubborn I am 😂 I have my booking apt first week of November. I have so much going on in the next couple of weeks so it will fly by! It only seems like yesterday we were all in our 2ww
