Very very lucky to conceive DS1 first time.
AF arrived today so will be going into 5th month of trying.
Feeling a bit emotional today but trying to stay hopeful 💜
Love & hugs to all those on their TTC journey x

@riverlodge90 I am sorry to hear that. You’re not out though until af arrives so you never know 🤞. I do know loads of people to take a while to conceive but it randomly happens one month so hang in there.

@Swirls346 It is funny you say that, we’ve just had a bad night. My wee guy sleeps ok but not when he teething, he struggles with teething. And they teeth a lot I find, he’s got his last 4 molars coming through but they are taking ages. I have definitely had moments where I have worried about handling another but I just keep telling myself this stage is short. The benefit of the age gap being bigger than I would have initially liked is that hopefully my first will be over the teething/ night wakings when the next one arrives 🤞.

@Millie1501 Thanks Millie! It's these final days of the cycle I find hard. Once onto CD1 I'm full of optimism again.
Hopefully we will all strike lucky soon!

@riverlodge90 Yes your next fertile week is around the corner. I always find it a relief when af arrives because at least then I know. I usually eat or drink something during my period that I won’t be able to when pregnant to cheer myself up lol. It’s highly likely you’ll get pregnant within a year of trying so should be soon for you 🤞.

Just came across your thread 😊 I’m also TTC baby number 2. Currently on cycle 3 of trying but I’m CD28 / 14dpo and had negative tests for the last 6 days. So mentally preparing for my period and onto the next cycle.

I’ve found the last few months to be really exhausting and I can’t help but obsess over anything and everything TTC. Seeing negative test after negative test is really triggering so I think I’m going to avoid testing next month 🤥

@Gem0302 @Millie1501 @Swirls346 @Angelselevenx @mariannaf @MissEmily5 @CatmumTTC

Just wondering how everyone is getting on?
I've just started so onto cycle 8 😓

TTCnumber1x · 06/12/2023 11:42

@riverlodge90 just started cycle 11 for us, 9 months after our miscarriage 😩 OH had a sperm analysis done and it was all normal so just a waiting game

riverlodge90 · 06/12/2023 12:50

@TTCnumber1x Awh no, it's so depressing at the start of a new cycle. Have to force being hopeful. Glad the sperm testing result was good! Was your other half okay with it?

jellyfish2210 · 06/12/2023 12:50

Trying for #2 on cycle 11. Waiting on a fertility appointment as I'm 35 and have also been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. Hoping that once that's balanced out then we will get pregnant!

Swirls346 · 06/12/2023 13:21

@riverlodge90 still not pregnant and 4dpo on this cycle now. Im trying not to symptom spot as I don't hold out much hope. How are you? D

riverlodge90 · 06/12/2023 14:15

@jellyfish2210 oh no! Hopefully they can sort out the thyroid issue, I've got an app next week for mine, as mine is too low. Hopefully can get some medication and fix it too. Was it easily diagnosed?

riverlodge90 · 06/12/2023 14:16

@Swirls346 It's so hard isn't it! Even more so in the run up to Christmas. I was pregnant once before and had absolutely no clue and no symptoms so try not to hold much weight to them either. Hopefully get your Christmas BFP!

Millie1501 · 06/12/2023 14:49

Hey guys, I am on cycle 6 ttc baby number 2. I am currently a few days after ovulation so on the frustrating tww. Hopefully we get our positives soon 🤞. What a great Xmas present that would be. Saying that if I don’t get pregnant this month I’m going to have wine over Xmas and eat things you can’t while pregnant. I feel when I enjoy things I can’t have while pregnant when af arrives it cheers me up a bit. Almost like I’m making the best of a bad situation if that makes sense. Let’s all keep each other posted 😊.

It is very hard this time of year. Luckily I have my beautiful son who is nearly 2. So I am lucky. But we struggled to conceive him and needed ivf so ttc just brings back so many horrible feelings of despair.
Lots of pregnancy announcements this time of year too which doesn't help.
Praying you get your BFP this month 🙏🙏
