Hi ladies,

Month 10 of TTC #2. I had a chemical pregnancy last cycle.

I have a one year old daughter who took almost a year and a half to conceive. I previously had a chemical pregnancy not long before she was conceived.

Really hoping this cycle will bring good news ❤️

Please feel free to join if your ovulation is around 26th/27th April and/or AF due around 7th/8th/9th May.

Wishing luck to us all xx

@Secondtimettc sorry to hear you are also out! Good luck on cycle 5!

@TTCing yeah it's hard, just looking back like what have I done with the last 11 months!

I too am entering fertile time, I often ovulate CD12/13, so a bit earlier than you. I reckon we can stay strong and not test!

We are gonna try our hardest for every day until I'm confident O has been and gone 😂 don't know why I'm bothering if my thyroid is out of whack, but I'm a sucker for punishment I guess!

Daniki · 16/05/2023 14:33

Said I wouldn't track ovulation this month but iv caved and just bought some 😂 more so as I'm afraid the chemical would mean I don't ovulate this month 🙈

Freya8 · 16/05/2023 15:02

Already testing lh lmaooo again the chemical has warped my brain to thinkin i wont ovulate so i need to be on it for wen that egg drops ... que me sittin here goin thru a box of 50 tests waitin ....

Ttcmumma · 16/05/2023 15:04

You should see the amount of lh and hcg tests I have in a bag at the end of every month its actually ridiculous! Went to throw them out yesterday and couldn't believe how bad it was 😅

Freya8 · 16/05/2023 15:07

missmoosh · 16/05/2023 15:32

Hahahhaha! Made me snort in public!
I don't blame you gals with the chemicals testing, can't say I would be any different!
I don't think much point of me testing given my thyroid levels so gonna try chill this month!

Freya8 · 16/05/2023 16:00

Haha I was finding tests everywhere in pockets, dresser, in the en-suite. I'm sure my husband thinks I'm rotten aswell 😂😂

missmoosh · 17/05/2023 09:22

😂😂😂 I don't think my husband would let me leave them laying around like that!

Gosh my morning meeting at work consisted with everyone discussing their children and that someone else is pregnant. I just wanted to hang up the call!

TTCing · 17/05/2023 09:23

Morning ladies.

Hope all is welll!

ahhhhh, as if we’re ramping up to our fertile windows again!

I’m still feeling quite motivated to not test for ovulation this month! Cycle day 9 atm! 9 days (roughly) until I usually ovulate.

I’m tired at the thought of dtd 😂

Freya8 · 17/05/2023 09:30

@TTCing in awe of this motivation!! Lol i think im too much of a control freak actually not even i jus like scannin them in on premom lmao

TTCing · 17/05/2023 09:34

@Freya8 i bet I’ll give in and be testing in a few days! But I think I’m at that stage of feeling so disheartened by it all that hopefully I’ll remain ‘can’t be arsed’ vibes! Haha.

I remember when I was TTC #1, it was around the 11 month mark when I started to ‘give up’ mentally about it. Maybe it’s a good thing? Expect less, less disappointment - I guess xx

@TTCing awh babes totally get ya about being disheartening.. i mean im feeling it and i hav an absolute cheek to since im only really couple months into ttc. It feels very ... unfair for some and very lucky for others. Im comin from a position of i was one of those lucky ones with my daughter n now its polar opposite. Maybe ur laid back attitude this month will b just wat u need fingers crossed for you and us all this cycle xxxx

missmoosh · 17/05/2023 10:04

@TTCing right there with you feeling disheartened! Knowing that this cycle isn't gonna happen cos of thyroid is oddly helping take the pressure off a bit.
I won't be OPKing this month, I do have a Samsung watch with the skin temp feature for cycle tracking so will probs just rely on that for a rough idea of O day

Ttcmumma · 17/05/2023 10:14

Any of you ladies get breast pain even after af has arrived? My body is really messing with me now, cd3 and right boob especially still really sore. Normally goes as soon as AF arrives if not before. Definitely too much red blood and some very small clots to be pregnant, especially as I was still testing very negative at even 16dpo. Just wondering if it was normal as it's not for me and feel like my body is just trying to torture me at this point

missmoosh · 17/05/2023 10:51

@Ttcmumma yeah that's normal for me, mine often hurt more during AF then the TWW. You could always test just to rule out a very late bfp? Stranger things have happened!

Freya8 · 17/05/2023 10:56

@Ttcmumma I norm get sorer boobs round ovulation weirdly! Tho in my tww there under my arm pits were insanley sore? N that lasted to even yest i felt that cd6. I never passed any clots with my chemical was a supposed to?

buckingmad · 17/05/2023 13:21

@Daniki after my early miscarriage I did ovulate but a week later than normal. I had an LH rise but didn't quite hit peak, then a week later got my peak so maybe just keep testing longer than you would normally just in case.

Yes mine were really sore yesterday actually!

Ttcmumma · 17/05/2023 17:45

Thanks girls! I'm convinced I'm not pregnant I just thought maybe something was wrong with me 😅 everything I was reading online was saying just the lead up to AF which is what I usually have. But I guess it can be normal! Things have changed so much since my MMC in Jan that I don't know my own body anymore 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Freya8 I didn't have a chemical, I've never had any kind of clots until my MMC in January now get some tiny ones with my usual periods 🤷🏼‍♀️. I think as a chemical is so early on you can have just bleeding x

Thanks Il keep an eye! Hopefully it's not too out of whack, can't be arsed dtd forever 😂😂😂 xx

missmoosh · 18/05/2023 08:52

According to my app I'm now officially in fertile window...where is everyone else in their cycle?

Freya8 · 18/05/2023 09:10

Fertile window tomorrow ... thats if my cycle stays same 🙏🙏 started every other day so done cd 5 n cd7 todays cd8

missmoosh · 18/05/2023 09:50

Ooo we all know what we will be doing now then 😂

I have also had a horrible realisation that if I'm not successful in the next couple of cycles, not only will I reach the year mark, but will also be on my period when my SIL is due to give birth! If I don't laugh I will cry!

Freya8 · 18/05/2023 10:11

@missmoosh awh babes 💓 not gonna lie ... tiz a pile of shite this ttc malarky! Im really tryin super hard to not think ahead lol jus each day at a time 😅 who my kiddin lol in bloody panic mode already being like what if i dont ovulate! Wat if it doesnt implant proper again. Also my hubby is running out of excuses to tell me as to why is hasnt happened lmaoo first one was u were only off the pill it takes a bit to settle then it was i think u jus need a period to reset. N then now hes like eh .. ehhh .. jus wasnt meant to be lmao i guarantee if not successful this one he will say it was the chemical that messed that one up 🤣🤣🤣 xxx
