Af arrived!

Anyone else about to start TTC a November baby?

Yes I'm on CD3! 🤞🏻

Nyxxie · 30/01/2022 12:47

Yep, assuming AF hurries up and makes an appearance!

BiscuitLover3678 · 30/01/2022 12:54

I hope it all works for us. What cycle number are you on? This’ll be my 3rd. 🤞
The only annoying thing is according to my dates, if this month works then the due date will be my son’s birthday!

Hey everyone, I’m on cd5. This is cycle 3 of ttc baby number 2. So far I have had a miscarriage at 7 weeks and then a chemical, so hoping third time lucky 🤞🏻.
@BiscuitLover3678 ahh how old is your son? Sure he won’t mind sharing x

VolcanicProtectorMan · 30/01/2022 13:33

Hi Smile started ttc for baby no2 yesterday, cd11 atm. Fingers crossed for everyone

Nyxxie · 30/01/2022 14:14

Not sure my testing date yet, this will be cycle 1 I'm just waiting for my first natural period since coming off the pill. Had a withdrawal bleed early January and haven't been using protection since then but not been actively trying if that makes sense!? Been having cramps for over a week so hopefully won't be long.

Good luck all :)

Same here! Day 2. If it’s this month the due date will be Guy Fawkes. I love that idea! I’m 37 and this will be our first & probably only.

Only month two of trying but can’t help my disappointment to not getting my BFP immediately.

I’m throwing everything at it this month… no alc, caffeine, upping my supplements, OPK, lots of DTD… November would be amazing! A newborn at Christmas 🥰

Cookiedough123 · 30/01/2022 14:29

Me too. I'm 1DPO. AF due the 12th! This is my first TWW and I'm a bit giddy about it and have my fingers crossed 🤞

excitedemmi · 30/01/2022 16:06

I'm trying for a November baby, but it will be IVF frozen transfer this cycle. Does that count on this thread? Testing date:

March
16 @excitedemmi

Due date would then be 24 November.

Coastaldreamer · 30/01/2022 16:29

Hey 👋🏽

I'm currently CD2 after a chemical this month. @Bubblesandballoons sorry again about the 7 week and chemical xx

TTC #2 and this will be cycle 2

November baby, any month baby would be amazing

Didn't think the chemical would have affected me the way it has so I'm hoping that doesn't happen again

xoJellyBean · 30/01/2022 16:48

This is cycle 20 something of trying lol just commenced clomid so unsure when I'll ovulate for testing date 🥰

Bubblesandballoons · 30/01/2022 16:51

Thanks @Coastaldreamer hope you are doing as well as you can be. Fingers crossed for this month 🤞🏻🤞🏻

BiscuitLover3678 · 30/01/2022 18:17

I'm on CD10
I will take next month off to avoid a Christmas baby, so hoping this month will be the one.
Going to start BD every other day from tomorrow.
Good luck everyone :)

How long have you been trying for? This month is early November, then it’s early December end then it’s 29th December due date, not great at all! I’m tempted to miss that cycle but also can’t imagine I will. Blush

@BiscuitLover3678
Since Summer 2020. We had a short break when I changed jobs to get me over the threshold for EMP (as I'm the main earner). We aren't going to be able to afford for me to take more than 6 months off in any case, but if I didn't have EMP it would have been weeks not months.

We didn't try last March either. The way my cycle fell last year the due date would have been either Christmas Eve or Christmas day. So I'm guessing it will be close to Christmas again this year, although I haven't checked and I have had some oddly short cycles so it may well be different. Knowing my luck, my March eggs are the good ones.

How about you?

Sucks about EMP but you are doing the sensible thing!

Only my 3rd cycle, 4th if you count a ‘not trying but taking a risk’ that we had in November 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ds is being really difficult atm and I know we could have him so that’s probably made me less worried and less upset each cycle. Saying that, I still really want it to happen at one point and don’t want to wait so long due to other factors too.

@BiscuitLover3678

I think it is good to be relaxed about it if you can. A midwife friend said to me being relaxed and not stressed will massively help with conception. How old is your DS?

I'm 38 and this would be #1, but we are relatively relaxed about it. We do like our life the two of us, and it wouldn't be the end of the world if it never happens for us. We went back and forth for quite a while over whether or not to TTC.

Here's hoping this is the month!

BiscuitLover3678 · 31/01/2022 11:11

Good luck everyone! He’s 2 so would be 3 or over now which is actually quite good @pinkpirlie

Hi everyone
This is my second cycle of TTC. If I do get a BFP this cycle, then my due date would be a day after my birthday.
Baby dust to everyone here. May we all get BFPs and sticky beans real soon.

Bubblesandballoons · 31/01/2022 16:02

@excitedemmi course it counts. Bet it’s exciting knowing that’s coming up.

Welcome @Miracle22 fingers crossed you get the best birthday present this year 🤞🏻

Hope everyone else is doing ok 😊. Cycle day 6 here and still bleeding 😩. Hoping the chemical won’t have messed my cycle up too much 🤞🏻

Coastaldreamer · 31/01/2022 18:12

@Bubblesandballoons I was thinking that too about the chemical. I'm tracking with OPKs again this cycle so time will tell how much the chemical would have messed up ov.
