CD1 here, starting a new thread for those who are hoping to get a BFP in May for a January/February baby 🥰

This is my cycle 3 trying for #2. I've got an 18mo old son.

@Catred4 let the tww begin 🤞

RBSK1 · 24/04/2022 09:51

4dpo for me. Been trying for #2 since September where DD turned 1. Fingers crossed. Getting lots of cramps and back pain I don't normally have so who knows. Could be psychological but 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sorry @Harriet669 meant to tag @MissBlue93 below 🤦🏽‍♀️

Thank you! I've got Flo and Premom for tracking. Last month I think I ovulated around CD 16/17 but I may start tracking from CD10 perhaps. I usually get egg white cm for a few days which is my indicator!

@ThePodParent two under 2 (or close to it) will be a great for being close ❤

@PeanuttyButter you've been through loads. Hopefully next time will be easier

@MissBlue93 welcome! I still can't believe the indent you had. Really thought it was a positive

@RBSK1 sounds promising 🤞

@kizzy97 a late period is just cruel :(

Flo is telling me that FW starts tomorrow 😬🤞

I know I'm gutted. However if I get pregnant this cycle baby would be due in partners birthday! My daughter was born on my birthday (different father) so would be fun if it happened and he said he'd love that. Baby dust to us all 🌟

Hey guys,
how is everyone?
The last few days have been bizarre, still no af so went out and brought yet another digital. It came back positive 🤷‍♀️ Over the moon but also very early days so trying not to get too excited.
I hope everyone gets there BFP soon, this conception malarkey can be cruel.

QueenBee22 · 24/04/2022 16:01

@Izzyboo1234 congratulations! Great news. Had you tested negative before your missed period?

xFictionx · 24/04/2022 16:08

Same here. 1 year ttc for #2. Don't understand what's going on. Very disheartening. Feeling like you can never get your hopes up yet still trying not to get upset when period comes. :(

SearchingTheSkies · 24/04/2022 19:58

Congratulations @Izzyboo1234 such exciting times! How are you feeling?

Hope everyone’s had a good weekend. I’m in the tww now so I just know time is about to slow down dramatically!

Cherrymarket · 24/04/2022 20:48

Hi all
can I join? Casually trying for #2 this month (first month). Will be testing fairly late compared to a lot of you as I am currently waiting this April period, probably testing around the 24th may.
Good luck to all those waiting to test! And congratulations @Izzyboo1234!

Izzyboo1234 · 24/04/2022 21:02

@QueenBee22 thank you, all negative and a week after still testing negative but not come up as 3+?!

@SearchingTheSkies thank you, I am
okay thank you just feeling extra tired. But with a lively LO that isn’t a surprise, still feels unreal to be honest. Just hope the baby sticks and we will go for an early reassurance scan. I have everything crossed for you, I am thinking of you.

@Cherrymarket thank you. I hope everything goes well for you!

@xFictionx awe lovely 💐it’s horrible
isn’t it. I remember with my first every month was a crippling disappointment 😞 at school they set it up like it will be easy!

Does anyone mind me sticking about on the thread? It’s early days for me, but equally will be nice to support one another on this journey. You have all been so kind. You all deserve good news

QueenBee22 · 24/04/2022 21:41

@Izzyboo1234 that's very interesting and a nice story to hear that all those negatives turned into a positive! Congratulations again great to hear good news on the thread.

Thank you for your kind words. It is so odd, and contributing to my anxiety. I have done a few tests since to confirm.

PeachesToday · 24/04/2022 22:44

Congratulations @Izzyboo1234 . It must be confusing after getting negatives. What DPO did you test positive?

I did a FRER this morning and BFN at 10DPO so I think I’m out for the cycle but AF is due 30th Apr so still could get BFP in May 🤞

I’ve ordered some new pre natal vitamins to spice things up. Active Iron Pregnancy Plus. They include the usual folic plus omega and iron. I take coq10 too because I’m late thirties x

Cherrymarket · 25/04/2022 07:44

@PeachesToday those vitamins sound like the whole shebang!

speaking of vitamins, does anyone know of any pregnancy vitamins that don’t contain iron?

PeanuttyButter · 25/04/2022 08:56

Congratulations @Izzyboo1234

Harriet669 · 25/04/2022 10:16

@Izzyboo1234 congratulations 🥳

Harriet669 · 25/04/2022 10:20

@Cherrymarket I've been taking vitamins separately rather than pre pregnancy vitamins as I already take some higher dose ones anyway and just thought I'd be doubling up, you could try take the main vitamins you need separately rather than but the all in ones!

Harriet669 · 25/04/2022 10:21

CD 16 and no positive OPK, my app has changed now from saying no peak to ovulated on CD9 as that was my darkest line, don't think it's right tho! Any one have anything similar or struggles getting a peak?

LemonZestDribbles · 25/04/2022 11:24

@thebloodycatwontstopmeowing how are you doing? Has AF stayed away?

@MissBlue93 oooh I hope that's a sign that you will catch this cycle 🤞🤞🤞

@xFictionx so sorry that you've hit a year. Can't imagine how tough that will be ❤

@Izzyboo1234 congratulations!!! That's wonderful news

@Cherrymarket welcome and good luck!!

@Harriet669 nothing similar but that's really weird. Did you have any other ov signs?

First day of fw here so here's hoping 🤞🤞 trying to tell myself that it will never happen first cycle but that little voice in my head has very high expectations 😬😬

lyra12 · 25/04/2022 12:41

Hope it's ok to join. Testing 3rd may 🤞 cycle 1 trying for baby #2

Thank you! I had considered this but I am already taking folic acid, vit d and 3 omega 3 tablets and I thought adding more might be a bit much with breakfast 😂 I think you’re right and I will have to though. Annoying that iron is in everything!
