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!

@Skylark1990 hello, sorry to hear of your losses, we also had an early loss September time last year. My daughter just turned 3 so hoping it won't take too long to conceive #2, don't want the age gap to be too big.

Hi @MamaSJ15 i think I remember you from a thread a few months ago (the 7dpo one). I’m cd23 so similar to you. Didn’t use OPKs this cycle so no idea how many dpo I am but usually ovulate anywhere between 14 and 18. Usually have a 28 day cycle but my last cycle was 30 days and the cycle before that was a chemical so I’m not entirely sure.

Hi @Charl881 I recognise your username too! How are you?
If my cycle returns to 28 days, AF will be due next Thursday, but it may be a few days longer again.

Morning and happy weekend! 5DPO today, so glad it’s the weekend as I’ll be distracted now until Monday. I had a CB flashing OPK yesterday so I have no idea what that was about 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sorry about your loss too @MamaSJ15 ❤️ it sounds like it's much more common than we originally realise.

That's lovely your daughter just turned 3, a 4 ish year gap will be nice I'm sure. Can understand wanting a small gap, we had expected initially to conceive and have two under two! But then I decided when my DD was 12 months I wasn't ready, so we waited a few months to start TTC then of course haven't had luck since. Hopefully with the nicer weather and feeling a bit better in myself it is the right time now 🤞💖

@Skylark1990 yeah, it's such a shame how common it is. It's so heartbreaking, especially for those who have been trying for a long time.
How long did it take you to conceive your daughter? I would like to think it would take about the same amount second time round but unfortunately that's not usually the case is it.

Only 6DPO and already symptom spotting can't help myself 😂 how are others in the two week wait doing?

Hello! My first time posting, hoping I can join. Currently on CD9 of cycle 4 (after the last miscarriage) TTC baby #2. Had 2 early losses, 1 in September last year and 1 in January. I usually ovulate around CD 17/18. Trying to keep positive this month and would have a due date around 18th Feb. Good luck everyone!!

@tulipsunday same! My boobs feel huge today and painful - they’re always painful after ovulation though so really difficult to tell if they’re any different to be honest.

So glad we’ve almost got the first week out of the way though (I’m 6-8dpo but not sure as didn’t use OPKs this month).

when do you plan on testing?

@Charl881 hopefully that's a good sign. My legs are achey and feel particularly tired today. A few back/stomach/pelvis cramps but have had those since coming off the pill so don't think that necessarily means anything! Good luck @Lolly16 !

How is everyone doing? Happy Friday! So glad the weekend is here, ready for a chilled one 😊

1dpo starts tomorrow for me 😬

Managed to dtd 4 nights out of the 6 of my fertile window, think tonight is going to be a night off 🤭🤭

Baby dust to all 🤍

@tulipsunday I'm in TWW, not sure how many dpo as I'm not really tracking as such, just know AF would be due Thursday if I'm gonna go back to 28 day cycle. Were away for a long weekend now though so I'll be busy to pass the time!

My 1DPO supposedly starts today (not exact as haven't done OPKs) just relying on what my app says and CM symptoms..

Here's goes the dreaded TWW... 🤞🏼

Good luck everyone ✨

Good luck everyone! all my opks are negative so far. According to apps I’ll ovulate between Weds and Sunday so we’ll just keep trying this coming week I think.

9DPO and same! I’m questioning every little thing!

Had some painful twinges and a crampy lower back around 6/7DPO that I was hoping could be implantation but I’m not getting super hopeful. Had a few cramps since that are similar to PMS/AF so perhaps she’s on her way a week early. May be out, but it’s not over until she shows up!

It is so hard isn't it when the symptoms are similar to pre-period. Definitely feeling more tired than usual but may well be due to running after a two year old 😂 going to try and wait till 11/12dpo to test if I don't order them till Mon/Tues I can't cave early haha

Hi ladies!
AF arrived today so moving from the Jan onto the feb baby thread! CD1 so got the long wait to fertile week ahead of me 😂

welcome welcome :)

I have absolutely convinced myself I’m pregnant this month which is probably only going to set myself up for disappointment. Purely because my boobs seem absolutely ginormous. They also hurt immediately after ovulation until AF so that’s not really a sign for me but they just feel full and heavy and I’ve had random shooting pains.

Problem is last cycle we weren’t able to try and the cycle before I had a chemical so I’m probably going into overdrive with symptom spotting.

Reckon I had a shadow of a line today but again probably because I’m looking for it.

I’ve got four FRERs arriving tomorrow or Monday so time will soon tell but I really hope I’m not wrong else I’m going to be extra gutted this month!

My ‘line’ for anyone interested… I can see it in person in certain lights but only on a photo of I edit it.

@BiscuitLover3678 will vouch for me going line eyes crazy every cycle 😂

Here’s an unedited version but I swear mumsnet makes the line vanish 😂

@Charl881 I can see on both!! Fingers crossed!

@Charl881 yes I'm interested! (apologies for lurking to see everyone's progress🙈) this looks a lot like the very first test I did b4 the clearblue..I still have my picture too

@MrsGrealish Don’t worry I was planning on keeping you updated 😂 These tests picked up my chemical and have been negative when I’ve been truly negative so I’m really hoping they’re not prone to the dread evap lines…

So I tested way too early AGAIN and obviously got BFN because I am an idiot. Honestly, I swear I can't have HPTs in the house without peeing on them 🤣🙈
