trying for a September baby, anyone want to join?

[peacelily]

Hi All, have been on a couple of ttc hreads but due to sad arrival of af yesterday and x2 negative pg testa thought I'd start a September one.

We are ttc#2 we already have dd(2) and had a mc in September this will be cycle 3 since mc.

Mc hit me hard, more so than other adverse life events for some reason also head full of other stuff such as trying to complete a Post grad Diploma in Cognitive Therapy!!

Anyway want to try to be optimistic and hopeful and not (too!) obsessive this month!

Anyone else fancy joining?? xx

mosschops im not to sure myself!! lol....im taking it to be curran date but knowing me its so wrong!!

CD is cycle day

Thanks Headfairy - never was one to keep life simple

so how do you work out your cycle day?

First day of period is day 1 unless starts after 6pm then next day is day 1.

mosschops - put. the. tests. away. I drove myself and DH MENTAL by testing too early. Not to mention the money wasted. I got no semblance of a line till the day AF was due! Obviously everyone is different but...

Issy i hope you do get a bfp this month. i just think that it would be better for you and that you and your ex are adults and capable of woking things out i am keeping fingers crossed for you xx

moss cd is cycle day first day of period is cd1 unless it arrives after 6pm and then cd1 is the next day.... so.. i worked you out to be on cd27... 27 days since your last period????? feel free to change anything if i fuffed it up

head please help re cervix.....Tmi but i am desperate..... for ages n ages n ages cervix has been low and hard could feel it like a mini doughnut. it started moving back day before yest and today its gone completely.?. if it is a sign of ovulation (along with those cripling pains the other night) how long does the cervix stay high??

hiya bubble... I think that probably means you're about to ovulate. I read somewhere the acronym is SHOP Soft High and Open, that's when you're ovulating. I really hope that it's just that, because whatever happens before ovulation, af usually arrives 14 days after ov (feel free to correct me anyone if I'm wrong on any of this!) Might be worth a few hopeful bd's anyway

Hello there everyone else.... oh the 2ww wait continues... soooo tedious! I'm so convinced that even if I hadn't bd'd all month and there was absolutely no chance I was pg I'd still be symptom spotting. I am my own worst enemy. I'm just chanting my mantra... "stop symptom spotting, those sore boobs are exactly what you get pre af" Not very catchy, but I repeat it 10,000 times a day!

All together now...."stop symptom spotting, those sore boobs are exactly what you get pre af.... stop symptom spotting, those sore boobs are exactly what you get pre af..... stop symptom spotting........"

Right ladies, I'm off on holiday tomorrow until saturday. Good luck all those testing. I've packed tests and tampons, don't know what will be needed! X x

Have a great holiday Snowfalls, hope all goes well with your testing. Im moving to Germany before you get back, but will try to home in to see what is happening with everyone....and will hopefully find out myself in a couple of days!! Lordy im scared!!

I think any hope i may of had could be well be gone. Ive just started to get pre af cramps, a bit sorer than i get, but it looks as if af is on its way and maybe a bit sooner than i thought. Not happy but not alot i can do about it.....

Aww sorry to hear that littlepea. I will keep my fingers crossed for you for next month and good luck with your move to Germany x

right..... im am so so so confused... AF has arrived.. im so pleased she is only 3 months late!!!!!!! but i was sure i was ovulating.. has anyone experienced bleeding at hte time of ovulation... i can remember this happening the month i fell with ds2.. not sure tho so counting it as af and am back to cd1 woo hooooooo does that mean i am out for a sept baby???

head does your cervix rise before af??

Ps please excuse my typing fingers like sausages

Hey Ladies!

Hope you all had a merry xmas and a happy new year! Ive come back to see how you are all doing!! No news for me and not starting the new year getting back into ttc just yet, just having fun with dh (wink wink )!!

How are we all doing, congrats on the bfps!! Bet they where nice xmas presents!! GLad to see some familiar faces on there and new ones of course!!

love to all xxxx

Morning all, any BFP's today? I am tempted to go and buy another test (maybe a pack of two then if I get another BFN I'd have one left ) but I know I shouldnt.
I have really low down cramping today and am just praying its not AF.
Have lots of pg/AF symptoms (sore boobs, bloating, not fancying food i normally like).

Keeping everything crossed for those ready to test

(Bubble I think I am cycle 1 if thats what you mean by how long been trying this is our first month hth )

Wow Bubblebell that's brilliant that AF has finally arrived. At least you now know that you can start ttc again with the hope that you get normal cycles again (fingers crossed)

Welcome to mosschops and littlewifey Littlewifey have added you to the list but not sure of thettc# or cycle # you are on so feel free to complete the info
mosschops have amended your cycle info.

2WW here for me - after today it'll be the 1ww and that's teh worst for me I will be dying to test but don't think I am pg this month and have no symptons yet (thank God otherwise I'd be driven mad) so I'm just goingto relax and wi until AF is due / doesn't come. (well we'll see)

Thanks irishmumwannabe I was going to add myself, but (Whispers)...wasn't sure how to do it!!! I am trying to conceive my first baby, following a mmc and although we weren't being very careful last month IYKWIM, this is my first 'official' cycle of TTC!
Acording to the OV sticks I think I actually ov'd yesterday... Hurray!! Although wasn't as dark as the test line, but def darker than anything I've had so far. Anyone else experienced this? I am bit worried this means my LP isn't long enough anyway though to implant. My average cycle length is 35 days so this would give me 10 day LP this month.. I think?? Although sometimes my cycles are 33 and sometimes 38!! I've just been reading about Agnus Castus which can help lengthen LP. Has anyone else tried this? Why is it all sooooo complicated!!!
irishmumwannabe I will keep my fingers crossed for your 2WW. If I did ove, the we are on it together... although mine is maybe a 10day wait??!!

bubblebell, so pleased she's arrived at last!

Hopefully this willbe your month

Me, still waiting for af, now 9 days over expected af start date but not pg

Will text again next week if no af (thursday) if, stillno af inanother 7 days trip to gp for me

oh minx i know how u must be feeling. it is so awful when af snubs you.. could you of ov'd later? i know its awful but she will show up soon. i just hope its sooner rather than later OR your BFP is just round the corner... did you test using a first response?? its just that with ds2 thats the only test that showed him up. iykwim??

hope we are on track for some more bfps soon

could I test today? i know I shouldnt but Im dying to do it again.
Which is considered the best Clearblue or First Response

i think first response is better... but thats just in my experience. im excited for you. do u feel pregnant??

yes but a part of me thinks Im imagining it and most of its stuff that could be AF anyway (sore boobs and bloating).
I promised I'd wait until at least thursday, but as Im day 28 today I guess Im almost there

well.... you could get some then if you decide not to you have some for d day but i dont want to be a bad infulence

bubblebell i DO NOT need any encouragement
I still cant work out exactly when Im due or if I tried at the right time, all the websites seem to having conflicting ideas
