Hi

I'm 31 and ttc #2. We already have a daughter who will be 2 in July. It took over a year to conceive her so I may be here for a while and would like people to pass the time with and as the title says chat about all things baby and ttc!

Anyone welcome!

I'll be your buddy! You can check out my story in my ttc journal!

ill be ur buddy too

Hey ladies - thanks for the replies.

Jessica28 - sorry for your loss. I hope it doesn't take you long to fall pregnant again. I can see from your chart we are close together in terms of our cycles - its CD7 for me today. How do you find charting? I did it with #1 as my cycles were long and unpredictable but I'm hoping to hold off a bit and see if the relaxed approach works this time!

bbygurl719 - your daughter looks very cute! I like her name too - very pretty. Congratulations on your marriage too! So how do you think you've done this cycle - are you feeling hopeful?

I'm on CD 7 today tooooo!

Hey dizzyblue - how long have you been ttc? This is my first cycle for #2 so can't wait to get going!

I don't find charting too bad - though I admit that if I couldn't plug in the number and such on FF, i'd never be able to do it. lol TTC makes me feels so stupid at times! How long are your cycles usually?? Mine were a little weird after my m/c but they seem to be getting back on track again now.First was 36 days, then 32 and finally 28 days which is what I was before my m/c. I didn't O last cycle until CD 17 according to FF but I was using digital opks and I never got a surge so I cannot be 100% sure if I O'ed or not. I really hope to be pregnant before my would have been due date.

thank you for both my daughter and marriage.. i dunno were actually NTNP so if it happens it happens

My cycles are generally 28-30 days with the odd 24 day short cycle thrown in. When I came off the pill to ttc#1 my cycles were all over the place - my longest was about 90 days - and it was horrible as I had no idea when I was ovulating etc. Spent a fortune on ov tests and ended up charting just so I had some idea what was going on with my body. I didn't go back on the pill as I didn't want the same to happen again and thankfully my cycles have settled into a pretty regular pattern.

bbygurl - you seem pretty laid back about ttc which is nice. I'm hoping not to get as crazy about it all as I did first time round but I'm already thinking about it way too much!

Jessica - I can understand you wanting to be pregnant before your would have been due date and I'm sure you will be! I'd like to fall quickly as I really don't want a big age gap but at the same time I had to leave it til now for financial reasons. As 2 in childcare is going to eat up most of my wages so need it to be for a short a time as possible. Its crap having to plan babies around boring finances but I know it makes sense.

So what do you guys do workwise? I work 3 days a week as a manager in a social care setting. It can be stressful but at least I'm part time so get to spend 4 lovely dats with my daughter.

yes im pretty laid back about it. was w/ my dauhter too. but back han i didnt know about all the stuff w/ TTC just got dissapponted whenaf showed up. it too 8 months and the moth i gt preggo was when i said i give up lol. n bam i happened
