TTC baby number 3 - anyone else??

[rubycoco]

Hi everyone,
I haven't posted on here in years! I have a girl aged 5 and a son aged 3, we're currently trying for number 3 is anyone else in the same boat?

It took us 6 months to conceive our daughter (i was 30), son was a surprise (i was 32), for this one we've done 2 months of not trying not preventing and this is cycle 3 of really trying! I've been doing OPK's and might start charting this month. Having got pregnant so easily last time, i thought it would've happened by now to be honest, but I'm realising I'm 36 and these things are all so unpredictable! Anyone else feeling the same? I know we haven't been trying long but i'm impatient already!

Hi! I am new to the site, and the first time posting to ttc forums.

I am a 31 mother of 2 beautiful children

I can say that I am in the same boat you are! I have a son who is almost 5 and a daughter who is 2 1/2!! Currently we are ttc #3

Took about 4 months to conceive him, and seemed to conceive her right away.

Patients is a tough one, I definitely don’t have any which doesn’t help at all!! I am not tracking temperature or anything, just watching closely at expected days. I may start charting next cycle if it’s a no go this cycle.

Fingers crossed for you and hope you get your bfp soon!!

Thank you, baby dust to you too!

Already having 2 children & not having been trying for long in the grand scheme of things, I don’t feel like I can complain.... but the desire to have a baby is all-consuming whether it’s your first or your 3rd so it can still be tough at times I find ... don’t feel I can talk to friends often about ttc, a lot of them don’t have any children & some are going through fertility treatment to conceive first babies.

We are trying for #3 as well. #1 took 5 months second pregnancy was surprise and ended up being ectopic. 2nd baby took 9 months. Been trying for #3 for 6 months with no luck. I hate that it takes us so long to get pregnant.

I know, it’s frustrating.... anyone I talk to though says it’s not very long as some couples take over a year etc etc, it doesn’t help that I’ve had quite difficult pregnancies with sickness so I’m desperate to just get that bit out of the way!

Hi Ruby! I am also a mother of two (ages 3 and 5) We have been TTC #3 for about 2 years now, started fertility treatments in August this past year and are on our 6th round now. Hoping March is our month! Sending lots of baby dust your way!!

Trying for bub #3 too. Only just started our journey this month on 1dpo today. Dd is 5 and our ds is 2.5. Dd was 6months, ds took over a year but I had 4 early miscarriages during that year in a row too. Lots of baby dust to us all.

hi girls me and DH are ttc #3 as well! DD will be 4 in March and DS 2 in April after my 3rd yes 3rd ectopic in November and completely not wanting another baby, it's all i can think about nowadays! It took 7 almost 8 years to have DD with 2 ectopics and a miscarriage we both just gave up and DD just happened, and endless prayers! DS happened after a chemical pregnancy we were NTNP but I totally timed it perfectly unbeknownst to DH. This will be our 1st month actually trying but its just going by my predicted O days.
Well here's hoping for us all ladies

Baby dust to all! I thought it’d be less stressful ttc #3 as at least I have 2 healthy children who I’m so thankful for but my little girl keeps praying that “god will put a baby in mummy’s tummy” - oh gosh the pressure!
