TTC in Oct

[TTCnewbies]

Would anyone like to join? We are going to start TTC for baby no.2 this month. I am predicting my ovulation to be around this weekend but I am out of touch with it all a bit now! Would love to find some people TTC at the same time!

Hi, I’ll join! I’m currently in my first month TTC baby no. 2. Ovulated (according to LH tests) on Saturday so currently 2DPO! 🫣

Hi, I’ll join too please! Absentmindedly decided to ‘let things happen’ this month, I think I’m probably 3DPO, can’t wait to be able to test next week. I bought a test yesterday!

Good luck, it's nice to have people on board! I think this month will be more of a see what happens as we haven't got a huge amount of opportunity to DTD this month but let's see what happens!

So exciting for you both. You'll be testing before me

I’ll join! TTC for my first at 39, 2nd cycle since early MMC in July and I’m on CD8. I’ve only tracked a couple of cycles and ovulated around CD20-22 so a while to go yet.

I will continue to track but we will dtd every 2/3 days throughout the month to try and relax a bit more - I was so full of hope the first cycle after MMC and we timed it really well again, but it didn’t happen and so I feel even more disappointment than I usually am seeing a negative, as I built it up so much.

So I’m also going into this cycle with a let’s see what happens mentality!

So nice to have others to talk to during this time! I already have a 3.5 year old, so being pregnant this time will be quite different and I keep thinking that it’s not the right time but also something I really want.. so weird. I highly recommend a product called Pre Seed which helped me get pregnant with my 1st.

I’m tentatively starting ttc number three this month, also expected to ovulate early next week I think. I’m 41 with a four and two year old, so aware it might not be the easiest process.

I’ll join, I’m on cd7 will hopefully ovulate day 13-16 though my cycles vary quite a bit! I’m going to try to relax more this month…

8DPO and have had the faintest lines on easy@home and FRER. I knew I shouldn’t have tested this early though as now I’m feeling impatient to get a proper line that I can show to DH! 🤦‍♀️

@CatMad22 I’ve heard of preseed, I may try it next cycle if this one isn’t successful. Do you know when you will test?

@Bee1725 I’m on CD 12 but usually ovulate around CD 20 so think we are on similar timescales! I have got my first flashing smiley this morning! Do you track ovulation? I also need to relax as have been feeling really disappointed after my BFN last cycle.

It’s funny, as soon as I saw the flashing smiley this morning I’m full of hope and excitement again - hormones or psychological?! 😂

@OrangeRainbow ohh that’s exciting and gentle congratulations! Do you have pics?

I know I’m insane with all these tests 🤣🤣 i’m just confused as the easy@home are darker than the FRER which are meant to be more sensitive?!

I can see a line on all of those! 🤞🤞. I think the easy @ home are 10 miu if they are the same as mine, that’s what my leaflet says 😊

I think they are but I think the FRER are 6 miu - strange but doesn’t matter I suppose!

Oh FRER is really sensitive then! When will you test again?!

I’d like to say Tuesday but I know full well I’ll probably end up doing one tomorrow 😂

Yay for the flashing smiley! Fingers crossed it’s not too far away now!
I’m trying not to track ovulation as I’m not sure I’ve ever had a true positive, I’m sure I’ll cave and use the left overs in the cupboard
I’m away without dh from CD16 so really hoping I don’t ovulate late!

@Springcloud26 I think I will test later today! I’m awake now because I’m thinking about it so maybe that’s a good sign?!

@OrangeRainbow omg congratulations! 🎉

Today’s progression at 9DPO. Got my fingers crossed for everyone waiting to test!

Yayyy! Love this for you :) Silly question but how do you feel? Have you told DH yet?

Thanks so much! I’m over the moon but also worried a bit as my first DD still doesn’t sleep and was up all night 🫣 in terms of symptoms, I feel worse now than I did at 6 weeks with my first pregnancy! Sore boobs, really nauseous, short of breath. Although I don’t know how much is in my head and I’m also full of cold, which weirdly happened around this time with my first pregnancy too.

Yes I ended up telling DH yesterday as I’m so impatient; unsurprisingly he couldn’t see the lines 🤣🤣🤣 but he’s really happy especially now he has the digital as proof haha

@Bee1725 Fingers crossed you ovulate before you go away!

@CatMad22 Exciting, keep us updated if you do test later!

@OrangeRainbow Yay congratulations!

Aww it might be the cold, I’ve had a terrible cold/flu virus for a couple of weeks and it’s making me feel horrible. My son didn’t sleep through until he was 3 so I feel you on that 😅
There’s nearly a year to go so hopefully your DD will improve sleep wise by then 🤞🏻

So I tested this morning and it was negative, my period is due on Saturday or Sunday so maybe it’s a bit early? I used the 6 day before cheap brand, not clear blue. I feel a bit disappointed ngl!

I’ll join! Currently on my 6th cycle of trying to conceive, praying this is the month 🤞 I’m on cycle day 12 with ovulation due 22nd-24th October. Baby dust to everyone here 🤍
