Not another period

[springseason22]

So TTC for 3 months now...second bub, DD1 is 3.

Took about 9 months to conceive DD1.

I know I should be patient but I feel so down today as I think my period may be coming...and I thought I was pregnant , had nausea, cramping feeling. I normally get a light headache before period but none this month...

Anyone join me at this sad table (I'm alright honestly) just good to talk it out I feel alone.

Have to go to work tomorrow and I feel like crying.

@springseason22 I feel for you, I’ve been the same! We’ve been trying for about 7 months.

My period was 2 days late today, none of my usual symptoms leading up to it… finally thought it was my time but I started what I think is my period this afternoon.

I’m devastated because it’s something we want so bad!

Hope you’re okay x

@Chlo1995 it's thinking you have some of the symptoms and then...nope! That's really hard.

Can I ask are you trying for your second baby as well?

I've been trying to remember how I felt before I took my first pregnancy test when I had my DD1.

I knew I felt a nausea in those first few weeks and a bit of a light headed feeling...

Are you using an app at all?

I'm using Ovia.

@springseason22 yes exactly! It’s so gutting!

Nope I’m trying for my first so it’s a bit of a minefield for me I’m barely knowing what to expect😬

I’m using Flo, but stopped tracking ovulation so I now just go off of the predicted dates x

The one thing I did when we were TTC our first was having sex every one to two days after period.

Also - and forgive me here for too much detail - get to know discharge patterns.. so egg white you are good to go. Means you are ovulating soon.

Now just got to keep to this myself and hopefully!

It's so very hard. I find it really hard hearing others announcing number two or even three!

We are trying to as often as we can, quite hard when my partner is always working such long hours😬 but thank you for the tips!

Yes, I find others announcing quite hard, my best friend have birth to her 3rd baby in September and while I’m very happy for her and love all her children, I can’t help but be sad and find it so unfair that she’s managed to have 3 in under 6 years…

It’ll be our time soon and it’ll be so worth the wait and stress x

Hi ladies, use opks or bbt to be sure when you ovulate so you time bd correctly. My cycles were so regular and ovulated on day 14/15 then suddenly it was cd10 every month. Even my ewcm didn’t always line up with ovulation . Good luck
