TTC baby #2 2020!

Hi ladies,

I thought I’d create a thread for those of us ttc this year! I’ve currently got AF paying me a very unwelcome visit so will be back at it in Feb (month 3 of ttc) 

Just thought it’d be nice to have some friends to talk to during these stressful times from BD’ing to POAS to (hopefully) lots of BFPs! :D;)

  • Hey! I am ttc number 2. I have one DD who is 6 in a few weeks and we finally decided it would be nice to give her a brother or sister. Im not getting any younger - 33 this year and time has sort of ran away with us!!!
    This was our first month of ttc. Period was 31 dec - 5 Jan and I was expecting AF yesterday but still a no show and as of yesterday it was still a BFN on hpt although I think it may have been a less sensitive one.

    Currently having lots of AF type cramps and horrendously sore and sensitive nipples so im wondering what it could be! Never had either of those when AF was due previously!

    Good luck in cycle #3... I may be joining you soon if AF decides to rear her head! xx
  • @Nat-ttc2 hi!
    Ah thank you but let’s stay positive for you! As they say it’s not over til AF actually shows up! Have you tried testing on a FRER?

    I have a DD too (2yo) and thought it’d be nice to give her a brother or sister to grow up with!

    Good luck to you too and keep me posted on how you get on xx
  • Yes I tested on frer but it was 4 days ago so may not have picked it up. Going to pick up frer tonight after work and will test tomorrow am x
  • Ooh exciting! Best of luck and hoping you get your bfp! X
  • Hey, TTC too. I'm 33 with an almost 5 year old. I had a laprascopic operation in September to remove dermoid cysts and one was too big that I ended up losing an ovary. Still have one and have been having AF visits which is positive I guess but still slightly worried it doesn't happen or I struggle with it. I'm also trying not to put too much pressure as I've only just started TTC 

    Good luck everyone xx
  • Hi @Essie86 and welcome! Ah I’m sorry to hear that but if you’re getting visits from AF that’s promising! How long have you been ttc? Have you had any advice from the docs? X
  • I never really got anything, all the medical staff were so vague when I was in and told me to try around 6 months later. We were told chances may be reduced by 20%. I was referred to speak to a specialist to discuss it but I'm still waiting. Ice tried to chase it up and nobody knows the correct department I needed so I've gave up on that. 

    It's very early days. When I was TTC with my LB it took around 4 months. So I'm hopeful it will be similar but you never know. I've never tracked my ovulation or anything we just sort of went for it last time but I'm on here trying to educate myself incase we so have any issues xx
  • Oh no how frustrating! Hopefully it doesn’t cause too many issues for you and hoping you get your bfp soon xx
  • Good morning ladies,

    Good luck to everyone. I created a similar post on NYD. I was CD01 on month 12 of TTC baby no2. I have a DD who's 3.

    I had what I thought was the dreaded AF niggling pains, but I took a test last night and got my first BFP. To check I wasn't dreaming, I took another this morning and I have a definite pink line. 

    If you think AF is looming, don't count yourself out. I had the biggest rant on a group yesterday about it all but something made me take a test on the night time!

    Again, good luck to all of you x x
  • @SnuggleBunny88 aww yay! Congratulations! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy xx
  • Aww congrats huni, that's fab news!! Xx
  • @SnuggleBunny88 big congratulations hun 💕
  • Hi ladies, how’s everyone getting on?

    Im officially rid of AF and ready to start BD’ing 💃🏻 😉 (I’m CD5)

    My eBay opks have arrived today too so will start tracking and bbt from CD9 I think so I can pinpoint ovulation. I’ve also joined Premom as ive heard good stuff about that and love the feature of uploading your opk pics and it pinpoints your low, high and peak days for you  👍🏻

    Hope you’re all well xx
  • @Alannah786 for bbt u be useful u gotta Chart whole cycle, xx
