Anyone trying for #2 around cd 4?

[Twinks]

Hope you're ok Dogtanian and sending you a massive hug- you sound like you have a lot on your plate at the min and I hope the issues get resolved with your partner quickly. You're definitely in with a chance if you dtd on ov day keeping everything crossed for you.

I'm on cd 20 now so still 10 days off AF now. Don't feel any symptoms

 

[NotNic]

It's very early for symptoms Twinks. Keep the faith! I figure it can take up to 10
Days to implant, so any symptoms before that might not mean anything anyway. A girl in my NCT group had no symptoms, had irregular periods after bfing and had got mixed results on pregnancy tests. She had her pregnancy confirmed by a scan at 14wks!! She had no idea she was that far gone! Fancy missing the whole first tri. I would LOVE that! No ms, no hiding big tummies, no worrying about scans...,

I'm a bit confused about where I am cycle wise. We didnt dtd on Tuesday when I thought I was having ov pain, but we did on weds and I had a bit of EWCM on Thursday. Normally I would expect AF on / around the 7th Dec. I figure I might test by the Monday (9th) if no sign of AF as if I did ov yesterday that would be 12 days - a day longer than most of my LP and long enough to test anyway. If no luck this month I should ov around Christmas Eve! X

 

[Dogtanian]

My cycle last month was 38 days,the one before after the pill was 40 days.
Jut like to know that i have a chance!
Keep us posted with your symptom spotting Twinks.
Notnic,its rubbish not knowing whats going on with your cycle,hopefully it will all become clear soon

I know someone like that too, dogtanian - how lucky??!!

Totally agree that cd20 is early for symptoms. I really had none first time around and this time only really my sore bb's and a bit more tired.

Notnic - fingers crossed for you hon. I got really fed up with my ewcm being all over the place and confusing me where I was! Would def recommend a cbfm to give you certainty, if this month isnt a bfp and you're feeling impatient.

Castaway - did you get your blood results today? Still amuses me that doctors in the US open on Sundays, it's so different over here! I think it's amazing that my gp opens on a Saturday morning!! ;-) anyway fingers still firmly crossed for you. Hope you had a good thanksgiving? X

 

[NotNic]

I'm not feeling too bad especially as we aren't really, really trying iykwim. It's frustrating when you are TTC'ing hard and you feel like every day matters, but I'm not there yet. We're still leaving it much to chance. If we are 6mths down with no success then we'll definitely consider it as it sounds like it can really help. In the meantime my son is keeping me busy and rather vain of me I know, but I am the lightest I've been since before I got married. I'm enjoying being slim again. I struggled with accepting my shape changing when I was pg, and I like having my old self back. The flipside of that is knowing that its probably better for me to be pg sooner rather than later. The longer I leave it, the greater chance of DS being a spoilt only child!

Fleur I am not sure if you are familiar with the hisitic Jewish population? They cannot do much on Saturdays so my doctor opens on Sunday to cater to that population...most offices here are open Saturdays...this guy is good though so I am going to him!

Office is closed today Really hoping they have my results tomorrow. Today is 5 wks 1 day still getting positives. I also got my AF after the birth of our son on this day so I am considering AF officially late.

 

[Fleur29]

That's good, notnic! I got very impatient very quickly!! I know what you mean re body image etc - after we've had our second child I am sooo going on a power diet/excersize regime to get my pre baby body back!

Speaking of which, I went into the attic to get my Fat Jeans today I'm really not complaining but I'm at that chubby not yet with a bump but too fat for my normal jeans stage! I can't wait to break out the proper maternity gear again!! Currently running on a very limited wardrobe...

Ahhhh right castaway - that makes sense!! What time is your appointment or do you have to ring up? I am so keeping everything crossed for you - I think it all sounds super positive. Keep us updated!!

Happy Saturday everyone! X

No appt, don't even know if they will have the results yet! Just hoping for some answers

 

[Mrs W 11]

Oh my, imagine missing first tri! I'm finding it a bit of a struggle at the moment. I feel awful having a moan but I feel so sick and just awful. Hopefully it will pass soon.

I think the relaxed approach is fab notnic, I'm a control freak ha ha so I took a more full approach and got lucky. I don't have a cbfm, I used opks to be sure when I ov-ed and found them good, just cheap ones!

I think it sounds positive too castaway! How are you feeling? Keeping fingers crossed for you.

My trousers are tight now fleur, only 6 weeks haha! Eating constantly as it helps with the nausea. I got huge last time and I'm resigned to it happening again. Ill do slimming world after baby arrives as that's how I lost Freya's baby weight.

Sending hugs dogtanian. I hope things get better soon. Xx

Don't worry twinks, you might not get any early symptoms. I hope the next 10 days flies by! Come on bfp!!

Mrs. W I don't know if it is all in my head or the start of a real, weird first AF. I feel like I could eat more but nothing is fancying me at the moment. I am wet down there...I wiped the other day as I thought my flow from AF started but it was all CM with a tiny bit of yellow in it. My boobs are huge and veins all over them. I am still getting faint positives though on my IC and ran out of FRER's. LOL IF I am pregnant I am 4 weeks, tomorrow. That is if I got my dates right....lol

 

[Mrs W 11]

Oh my goodness I so hope you are!! It feels like 4 weeks has gone quickly, though I'm sure it hasn't for you.

Last time, not this time, I had the feeling wet symptom and def the boobs! This time it's different, all about the sickness unfortunately. But eeeep it does sound positive for you. Stay away AF!!!!

 

[Twinks]

Ohh sounds very promising for you Castaway- am keeping my fingers crossed for you

Mrs W sorry to hear you're suffering with the morning sickness hang in there and it'll be over very soon

Gosh there was so many things I was going to reply to and I've totally forgotten lol! Mrs W (I think it was your tip) I totally need the tablet open at the same time!

Not Nic- all of my friends are pregnant with their second at the min and they were all very chilled and fell very quickly One of my friends has just told me she's 10 weeks pregnant and she wasn't even trying at all lol- they just weren't being careful either.

I've been really poorly this weekend with a stomach bug so am just resting at the min. I'm cd22 now so still a little way off yet. Won't test this month.

 

[Dogtanian]

Waiting on your results Castaway- i do hope its good news,the signs sound promising.
After a positive Ov test a few days ago,temps have not confirmed ovulation.I had another pos OV test yesterday and loads of EWCM so am hoping this is it,we BD last night.That would make my OV CD27! my body must be all over the place.It took 7 months with DD and that was with regular cycles,im trying so hard to stay positive,but its so hard.Why cant i just be normal!

 

[Twinks]

Dogtanian sending u lots of baby dust hun. You know you've ovulated which is the good thing and I'm sure we'll all catch that sticky bean soon so hang in there xx

 

[CastawayBride]

Hi ladies, well happy to say I finally got a NOT pregnant! Doc must have been right, I am finally getting down! I think when I O'ed my body was unable to release the egg from the trauma...hoping after AF I will be good to go! I am hoping to see AF within the week

 

[Dogtanian]

At least you know whats going on now Castaway.Onwards and upwards nto the next cycle

 

[Twinks]

That's good news that AF will be here soon Castaway The next cycle will come around quickly xx

 

[Mrs W 11]

That's good you've got a clear answer castaway and you can look forward to your next cycle!

Dogtanian good news you've ov- ed, maybe you caught the egg this time and will get a bfp very soon. Hope so Hun, I know it's frustrating when your body isn't doing what you need. A friend used soy successfully to regulate her cycles, could you try that?

 

[Mrs W 11]

Poor you twinks, are you feeling any better now? X

 

[Fleur29]

Hi girls

Well I wrote a long post last night and my phone ate it - argh!

Anyway castaway - onwards and upwards to next cycle - I take it you will be breaking out the cbfm? I hope af shows up ASAP anyway.

Dogtanian - how are you feeling now? Have you had your results yet? Hope you managed to relax over the wknd.

I am feeling so festive! We haven't got our tree up but planning to get it a week on Friday - I can't wait! Who has their decs already up??!

Sending lots of Christmassy baby dust everyone's way xx
