Ttc buddies wanted

Hiya I'm on our first month TTC for our 4th baby and find the whole process super lonely so looking for buddies to chat the time away.

There isn't many people in the world you can openly talk about trying and sore boobs and DPO with so hoping for some buddies!!

Currently on CD26 / approx 8/9 DPO didn't test ovulation just app prediction.
BFNs at the minute but praying because of my unusual symptoms! Grin

Hey, I'm not really sure when I ovulate as my cycles range from 25-33 days and we aren't tracking properly - but I am on CD18 on my first month TTC number 2!

Ahh hiya!
I have longer cycles too usually about 32/33. What are yours?

My other children took a while to conceive so I’m trying to buckle myself in for another few months of crazy!! How long have you been trying? X

Mine range from 28/35 days ! Which is annoying cause they seem to go normal for a while then go a bit off track , my other pregnancys I pretty much caught by looking at him lol but we've been trying for about a year and half , baby no3 is really hard , I totally feel like we're on a rollercoaster xx

QuirkyJadeSwan · 07/06/2024 03:23

Hiya!

I'm on CD3 of cycle #3 for baby #1. I'm still coming off the pill so my cycle is all over the place. I definitely could use some friends in this process.

Ahhh how annoying! You know my third took our longest as well! 1&2 were pretty instant and then she was a year!

@zoeoliviax he is 2! 😊 I always wanted around a 3 year age gap, so fingers crossed 🤞🏻 if I did luckily catch this month, it would be a 2 year and 10 month gap!

Aw we’ve always tried to be like that. Honestly it’s the best age gap! 😍 Fingers crossed for you!! X x

Feeling deflated this morning.

10ish DPO and stark white BFN.
With my previous I always had a positive by now so looks like I’m waiting for AF 😒

I feel silly even thinking I could have got lucky first month trying.

@zozoeoliviax definitely agree the third is hard work , it's gets to you so much when it doesn't happen , also try not to be that disappointed don't count yourself out yet Hun because you never know what's to happen , AF may never turn up and you get a bfp 💖xx

QuirkyJadeSwan · 07/06/2024 16:31

@zoeoliviax I'm sorry 😞

I started crying when AF came for me this week.

Yes it is mentally challenging, how you feeling tonight ?, we used conceive plus this month and oh my gosh never ever again I've got thrush ! So that's a nice little surprise ! Xx

Hi all!

How are we all doing??
Sorry for the silence we've had a lot going on in the family.

And just to add to confusion, I'm now CD35, 3 days late on my period.
All preg tests negative, and then I've just done an ovulation test and it's a blazing positive?

So I don't know what's going on

Hi, I'd like to join please ☺️ 2nd cycle TTC #2. Currently CD3 after a believed chemical in the last cycle, completely unexpected and knocked me over after a few days of faint positive pregnancy tests then heavy bleeding starting Wednesday evening. Haven't retested yet but fairly certain I'm out so starting again from this cycle 🤞🏻

Hey lovely!
Sorry to hear about your chemical ☹️ I’ve been there and it’s just so rubbish. It seems to be a weird cycle month!!

OP posts:
mangobe · 14/06/2024 13:01

Definitely! My cycles are often long and unpredictable so I wasn't expecting anything to happen when I got the first positive last cycle but I just knew something was different, you know? But it's still early days in this journey I guess

All weird for me because DD1 was a happy surprise so haven't really 'TTC' before 😅

Hey!

That does sound very confusing, maybe wait a couple of days and if your period hasn't shown up, test again? Surely you're not randomly ovulating now but I haven't had experience with tracking ovulation!

I'm currently CD26 (cycles anywhere from 25-33 days so the time is going slow waiting!). I'll test if I get to CD34 as that would be very weird!
