Currently TTC number 2 and struggling after getting pregnant fairly easily with number 1 (on cycle 3)!
Thought I'd start a thread so we can all support each other. Anyone else on their TTC journey for number 2? I am currently on cycle 7 and have ruled myself out already as negative pregnancy test at 10DPO. Each month I convince myself that I am pregnant! Experienced a chemical at cycle 3 😩

Hi all, mind if I join? Had two MMC trying to conceive number 2 after a relatively easy time for number 1. Oh and PCOS to add into the mix…

Still no period, still a BFN... not even a sniff of a faint line 😅
I have some cramps this morning, but nothing like my usual period cramps.
I'm nauseous and coffee if turning my stomach this morning which happened with my first so I'm hoping that's a positive sign!!

This is promising!!!

My tests today are negative but my boobs are worse and I feel SO nauseous.

Going to just have to ride it out now I think, I'm getting too caught up in testing and being either excited or disappointed 😂

SkaterChick · 25/07/2024 12:58

So the plot thickens.... When I had a wee at about 10.45 on my way out the house I had a very small swipe of pink spotting when I wiped. So I popped a pad in and off I went out expecting my period to show up. I've been for a 2 hour walk and I've come home to nothing! No period and no more spotting.
So I'm hoping this is maybe implantation bleeding?? But if it is should I have not had a positive by now?

Ive asked the Mr to pickup a a clear blue early test on the way home (they're cheaper than the know impossible to find frer tests) .... Please tell me these are a decent test 😅😅😅
I'm only wondering if the pack of tests I'd got were faulty? Idk.

@beansread oh I’m sorry that it hasn’t been clear cut, that’s so confusing and hard to have hopes up and down. Maybe just easiest to wait until af either arrives or you are definitely late.

@SkaterChick hi, I’m not sure what dpo you are but as I understand, implantation usually happens a couple of days before a bfp would show up as it’s only after then that the hcg hormone rises.
Implantation usually happens 6-10dpo so I don’t know if that fits for you?
I’ have unfortunately had a spot of bleeding and then taken another 8hrs for af to fully start so it could go either way I think

SkaterChick · 25/07/2024 13:30

@Mummio92 in cd27 and 11dpo currently
So I guess we'll see what happens in the morning!

Yeah, the confusing part of it all is that last month, my periods were 3 weeks apart.

I've had to amend my Flo app because I ovulated on the 13th and now it's saying my period is due 28th (which is 3 weeks and 4 days). So I'm not even technically late but compared to my cycle prior to having my coil out, I am.

My flo app is now saying I can do a test tomorrow 🤷‍♀️

Ooooh do let us know, my fingers are crossed 🤞

SkaterChick · 25/07/2024 15:34

@beansread I'm so confused because I don't really feel like I usually do before my period.
I feel SO nauseous and I've got reflux this afternoon.
No more spotting or sign of my period.
I don't understand 😅🤣

SAME. I've even pushed to eat a bit more than I usually do to fill up and be satisfied but the nausea is still lingering 🤢

SkaterChick · 26/07/2024 07:57

So no period. No more spotting.
Both the easy @ home and the clear.blue ultra early were definitely negative so who knows what's going on!!

(Both @hone<-- won't let me delete this 😅 )

beansread · 26/07/2024 08:34

lol...
One day late to period, but i can feel it coming. My boobs hurt less as well.

@SkaterChick did you do yours?

Oh just seen this! I'm sorry. We're in the same boat. Not a clue what's going on anymore. I've just accepted that I was pregnant (with the positive test) for a day and that's that. If it changes great, if AF arrives... we go again.

SkaterChick · 26/07/2024 08:46

@beansread it's SO frustrating isn't it.
I went back through my ovia app last night and my cycles have all been between 22-26 days for month's.
In cd 28 today and aside from the spotting yesterday
(When I say spotting ...when I wiped after a wee there was a streak of pink in some sticky discharge and that's it) There's not even a hint of my period.

I still feel nauseous and things like coffee, squash and sweet things are turning my stomach. Very slight cramps but they're mostly non existent.
My boobs/nips are still slightly sore.
I have headache basically all the time and I have to wee every 15 minutes 😅

I just want to know now!!!

@SkaterChick I think I see something????

I didn't get a positive til my period was 2/3 days late 🤞🏻

beansread · 27/07/2024 07:53

2days into due period.

It's stronger on the bottom for some reason?

So I had faint pos 4 days ago, 2 negatives Thursday & Friday and a faint positive today? I'm so confused.

@beansread I can definitely see that line!!

SkaterChick · 27/07/2024 08:32

So in cd29, 13dpo, still no period and tests are negative.
I had another wipe with pink spotting yesterday so was expecting my period this morning but nothing.
So I tested with two tests and absolutely nothing
I've got a clear blue left but I was only going to do that if I saw a hint of a line on these tests.

I think your test is positive 💜

LemonBitter · 27/07/2024 17:26

@SkaterChick that's so strange. I guess all you can do is test every morning - you're not out yet!!

@NattyPeer how are you doing lovely?xx

LemonBitter · 27/07/2024 18:17
