TTC February 2023 babies 👶🏻 🥞🌨🌿☀️

[BiscuitLover3678]

So I’m out AGAIN!

Trying to move forward.

Anyone else hoping to conceive a Feb baby?

I’d be due around Feb 20th if this month actually does anything!

@Charl881 Time just seems to go so slow doesn't it, I'm 7/8 dpo today and the days are just dragging x

Can I jump on here please - had my BFP last week on 8DPO and will be due mid Feb 2023 if all goes to plan

Does anyone plan to have/have any experience of an early private scan? Or have any recommendations for a clinic in the Cardiff area? It seems like such a long time to wait between now and 12 weeks!

@Charl881 sorry to take so long, the website keeps playing up on me. How are you doing?

AF is slowly coming to an end so happy about that! And we've booked another long weekend in a couple of weeks which will help the TWW! DH seems to have a lot on next week which would be our key fertile time so I've got to try sneak some 'us' time in there too 😂

@MamaSJ15 I think our cycles must be back in sync. A long weekend sounds a great way to help pass some of the TWW. Good luck next week!

I’m ok, just fed up. I’ll be happier this time next week when fertile window is starting and I can feel some hope again.

started getting ewcm so time to opk 3x a day to catch my peak 🤣
How's everyone else?
@Charl881 with the aspirin if you do conceive on it how lon LH do you carry it on afterwards? It's to try to reduce risk of another chemical is that rifght?

Hi - I'm also in cardiff 👋🏻 ☺️ I'm looking at Peekaboo baby scan in Penarth or ultrasound direct. I went to ultrasound direct when they were in Mothercare for our gender scan with first baby, they were good 👍🏼

It’s so slow.

I’m going to test on Sunday with an early as I feel like it reduces the stress if I’m negative a few times before AF is due.

anyone else testing over the weekend?

@BiscuitLover3678 Yeah I think early testing does help you mentally prepare yourself. Even after these two chemicals now I will still test early, I would rather that than still be full of hope and imagining symptoms on the day AF arrives. Fingers crossed it’s not a negative for you though!

@Tropicana1 get peeing on those sticks 😂 hopefully you get your peak soon. Yep I’ve had two consecutive chemicals. I doubt I’d be lucky to fall three cycles in a row but if I do then apparently aspirin is meant to help reduce the risk of an early miscarriage, you can take it all the way up until week 36 I think but obviously in consultation with midwife / doctor. I’m having blood tests after this cycle to find out if there is something causing the chemicals but in the meantime I figured I might as well try the aspirin, especially as you’re meant to be more fertile after a chemical/ miscarriage.

@Charl881 yea I was going to say I've read that you're more fertile after a chemical / MC so fingers crossed that the aspirin helps it stick if you are Lucky this month!

Opk today is definitely getting darker and I usually only have a really short surge so I would guess tonight or tomorrow for my surge. Could be wrong though! My body likes to mess me around 😂

@Charl881 oo that's good, we can stick together through the cycle then. How long are your cycles usually?
Yes definitely, we went away for a long weekend a couple of weeks ago too which was right before AF was due so it did take my mind off it for a bit!

Thank you, you too!

Good luck to those testing this weekend / coming days, and hope the TWW goes quick for anyone just starting it.

I'm 12DPO (cycle day 26) today. Symptoms so far have been really bad lower back ache when walking, lower cramps and fatigue. This is only my second cycle so not really sure what my "usual" pre AF symptoms are to compare them!

En route home from holiday today so will probs test later or tomorrow morning with FMU! X

Good luck @HR2022 keep me updated, 12 do buddies! I'm going to get a pregnancy test today will probably do it first thing tomorrow morning. When are you due on? X

@ZoeG22 thank you I'll check them out!

When are you thinking of testing @HR2022

Thanks @allthingssparkly .. as this is only cycle 2 post coming off the pill I'm unsure how long my cycle days are.. assuming it's 28 days I'll be due on this Saturday! I'm so bloated atm I think I could already pass as being pregnant!

@Tropicana1 I will probs test tomorrow morning :)

Yay excited to see some tests on here!

I’m confused. CD6 and I’ve had a tonne of EWCM today. Going to do an OPK later but someone tell me I don’t have to start DTD already 😂 I usually ovulate around CD15-CD17 so this would be ridiculously early.

Ah okay, hopefully some luck comes your way this cycle @HR2022 🤞 My cycle lengths are normally around the 29 day mark. It will be 4 weeks tomorrow since my LMP!

Ooh maybe this is it and you’re ovulating early?

I had a dream I definitely wasn’t pregnant last night and I woke up really annoyed 😂 so symptoms whatsoever as always. Only 5/6 days po though so not unusual I guess.

No symptoms

Ooh exciting @HR2022

Keep us updated

Had some spotting today I think I'm 9/10 DPO, could it be my period or is this too early? 🤞🏽🤞🏽

Hi, I'm late to this but sending everyone vibes who's about to test.

I have been TTC (not always actively) for 8 years, never even a whiff of a positive test despite some oddly late AF. Wasn't expecting much but was 4 days late at cd18 and kept getting cramps on and off, boobs very round but not too tender, did a test last night and positive straight away!! We are so shocked, never thought this would happen. Only DTD twice this month and didn't opk!! Due around 4th February :)

Did you take a test @HR2022?! X
