Mini, I'm so sorry you are having such a tough time. Keep your head up. It'll be soon now I just know it!!!
 
Well ladies........we are officially going to start trying for #2 in May!!!!\\:D/:eek: I'm so excited but SOOOOOO nervous! I can't believe it's almost time already!!! Any of you ladies in "the talks"?
 
That is so exciting!! :happydance: We talked about it and agreed it's still not time right now. I'll know more about my job situation next winter so we can revisit it then and figure out the soonest time that would make sense. It's hard to wait!
 
Very exciting!!

We were going to perhaps start trying in June time but DH was poorly towards the end of last year and still not 100% so we will probably leave it until the end of the year to talk about it more and probably start then.
 
Hi all

Yep I'm pretty much back for normal. Was told to wait a couple of months to give the folic acid time to build up again but to be honest I don't feel ready to try again yet . . . I just feel that I can't do that again so soon. I know it might not end the same way but in the back of my mind, it might!

I'm probably going to start thinking about it again in May and see how we feel

Eeeek I've started taking folic acid again! Preparation for TTC has begun! (Will try and move back more on BnB rather than Facebook I think!) Feel a bit weird talking WTT and TTC over there!
 
Just to carry on from my FB post, we are still hoping to start TTC in July. I've recently been to the doctors as I've been spotting for a week before AF arrives so I thought I'd get it checked out before TTC. I know after having a baby and BF changes things with your cycle so have given it 6 months to sort itself out before going to the doctor. They did a blood test and should get results tomorrow to check my hormone levels are all ok. I was worried my luteal phase was going to be too short so we'll see what they say.

I've started with the folic acid too so even if we don't start for a few months at least I've got some in my system. I think last time I started taking it a good 4/5 months before TTC.

How's everyone else? Any news??
 
Hi guys, I didn't realise there had been any activity on this thread since we moved to fb. Sorry to hear you went through a rough time last year mini. Hope you're enjoying not TTC for a while!

Smawfl - good luck at the doctors tomorrow. I was worried about my luteal phase too but it turned out to be not a problem at all. Are you tracking your cycle like last time?

It's exciting being back here:happydance: And a lot easier on my tablet compared to how it used to be on my phone!

YEp I've been tracking my cycles, not as religiously as before, but just to get an idea of dates, and cycle length etc. I don't think I'll be temping this time, but I did order some OPKs the other day :dohh: So much for a less obsessive approach! LOL

Did you have luteal phase issues first time round? (Sorry baby brain means I've forgotten everything!)

Yep it's nice to be back here.. especially using all the smiles :flower::cloud9::coffee::baby::thumbup::happydance::happydance:
 
To be honest it's hard for me to remember too!!! I think I was worried I had a short luteal phase. I think it was 7 days. I bought some cream which was supposed to help but I never got round to using it.

I've still got a big bag of OPKs so I dare say I'll be using them again soon. Got a ton of pregnancy tests too. Don't think I'll be temping either. But I might change my mind once we start TTC and I get that urge to have some control over the whole process! :dohh::haha:
 
Did you use OPKs last time? I think I bought a bag of internet cheapies, and a digital one with a smiley face! Didn't use the cheapies much and sold the rest of the bag on ebay! I think I have one pregnancy test somewhere too. Do they expire i wonder?

I used internet cheapies OPKs for a couple of months, the month we conceived and the one before as a practice run. It worked well combined with temping. I have a bag of cheap preg tests and a double pack of first response. Never thought they'd go out of date!
 
Just got my blood test results back and all normal thankfully!
 
I've spotted in between cycles since having Raylen too. Went to the Dr but they didn't really find too much, just one of my hormones was high normal and the other was low normal. I'm also back on folic acid!! Eeeeeek!!! I'm doing opks only because we are trying to sway pink. We aren't really doing anything extensive, just some small things. I was going to do a full sway but the more I looked into it the contradicting everything got and it was just too confusing. Oh and my best friend that I was pregnant with last time is pregnant right now lol.
 
Yay for folic acid!

How do you sway for pink?!

I'd be interested in swaying for blue (although to be honest I really don't mind as long as baby is healthy)

I'm convinced my second child will be a girl though, not sure why!!

My friend was obsessed with getting a girl the second time round (she already had a boy) and she used to sleep with a wooden spoon with a pink ribbon tied on it under her bed! Lol
