TTC baby no2. Dpo 4. Anyone else?

From this month on, we are trying for an other baby.

I know that it might take some time, but I have a strong feeling that it happened this month. I had a similar intuition with my first child - I just knew it. I'm afraid I'll be extremely disappointed if the result is negative.

I hope I'm not the only one who feels this way and I will get some support here. I feel lonely this time around- cant really talk to anyone about it except my husband (who is very relaxed and doesnt get that this is the only thing on my mind right now). Looking for some support here!

@Katherina02837 I think the Amazon strips require quite lot of HCG so definitely not out yet!

@AC2023 haha ditto that! I turn into a crazy impatient lady so may well cave.

@HRHXO My DD is also 14 months! Wondered if you’d all think me crazy aiming for the 2 year age gap haha. We were going to wait until the end of the year but my DH has been ready to try since DD was around 9 months old! I definitely feel ready now

interesting a few of us have had the crampy pains, really hope it means good news!

ReginaPhalange12 · 10/10/2023 13:48

@MrsP21918 still none 🤷🏽‍♀️ I usually spend my TWW symptom spotting but nothing this month so far.

My DC is almost 4. How old is your DC?

TTCNoTWO · 10/10/2023 18:54

Has anyone used the one-step tests from amazon? I normally buy clearblue or first response but they're so expensive! Need to keep the will power of not testing until 10dpo or 11dpo. My DS is 2y5months and I wish we had started sooner 😪

ttcflowerxx · 10/10/2023 19:06

is it possible to have sore boobs and a negative test but be pregnant? x

hello! I’m 5 or 6dpo, 1st cycle trying “properly” and would love to join this thread to see how everyone goes on. DD is 4, desperate for a sibling. And I am so impatient, DH is very zen about it 😂 no symptoms so far, lots of bloating but not sure if that’s due to stress eating.

@TTCNoTWO I am using MomMed tests from Amazon. I used them with my previous pregnancy. I am an early tester and I like to follow up with the line progression if positive, so those were perfect for me.

@ttcflowerxx Yes! I also woke up with sore boobs today, but no positive yet. I remember my previous pregnancies (one mc, one chemical and one baby :) ) I always got the symptoms first, and line later!

@FSGirl Welcome! It is nice to share experiences here, as my husband is also very chill about this. I constantly want to talk about my symptoms, tests, etc. and I know it would drive him mad!

@AC2023 How many dpo are you now? How much your temperature dropped?

Katherina02837 · 11/10/2023 08:20

I thought I had a negative this morning as I had to run to prepare my little one for the nursery. I went back and I think I see a very very faint line. Maybe I imagine things now? 🤔
I am 10 or 11 dpo.

TTC baby no2. Dpo 4. Anyone else?

Ahh that does look like a like @Katherina02837 but if it wasn't 'read' in the correct time I'd do another one tomorrow to double check

Oldandtrying23 · 11/10/2023 08:57

I am 5 DPO currently. 1 PUL and two chemicals (one last month ) so really hoping this will be the month. 🤞🤞 fingers crossed for you all.

Katherina02837 · 11/10/2023 09:17

@Catson Yes, I will take one tomorrow morning too! I hope I will see a line more clearly! I try not to get my hopes up...

@Katherina02837 ahh does look like there’s colour there! Definitely retest, best of luck!

@ReginaPhalange12 no real symptoms here either other than mild cramping but I’ve just got a bad feeling AF is going to turn up early this month.

@Oldandtrying23 welcome and so sorry for your losses, sending lots of luck!

@AC2023 sorry about the temp drops, I’ve never tracked BBT but have everything crossed AF doesn’t arrive for you

@AC2023 It will be super mean if AF turns up early for us both. Thank you so much, I’ve still got everything crossed for you too. Just this week to get through and we should know next week xx

Chanelle44 · 11/10/2023 13:46

Mine turned up 2 days early, started off with red when I wiped now it's brown when I wipe but not everytime if that makes sense. I only have a small patch of brown on my pad so don't know if it's going to go into a full period or it's implantation. I'm cd 26. But good luck to everyone

ReginaPhalange12 · 11/10/2023 19:24

@MrsP21918 when is AF due? I don't even have the usual crampings however I ovulated a couple of days early so AF not due until Sunday

Chanelle44 · 11/10/2023 19:48

I have 2 different predictions either Friday or Sunday 🙈

MrsP21918 · 12/10/2023 07:17

@ReginaPhalange12 Either Tuesday or Thursday, Tuesday based on my normal cycles but my last cycle was a bit longer. How about you?

@Chanelle44 That does sound strange! It could be implantation blessing? How has the bleeding been since?

Katherina02837 · 12/10/2023 07:22

@Chanelle44 I'm sorry! Fingers crossed for next month!

I tested this morning again, and the line is the same. I also tried Clear Blue 6 days early (couldn't find First Response) and it has a very faint line.
I should be 11 or 12 dpo. I know it's early but I had a strong line with my fist baby at this point.
Of course things can be different, but I'm scared it will end up being a chemical...
