TTC #2 or more

Thought i would start a place for us TTC #2 or more.

We are not officially TTC till next year but are not stopping anything b4 then either. So far i have had 1 period since having my wee girl who is now 9 months old, my AF would have been due on thursday last week but nothing happened, on sunday i had a bit of spotting in the morning then nothing since not sure whtas up with my body maybe going to b irregular for a bit first.

Oooh RaspberryJam :stalk stalk: exciting
Ok well I was having a look round fertilityfriend and I did notice a high level of charts that looked really good with BDing etc all right and everything looked (to my rather inexperienced eye) like they should have been a BFP but they weren't and all the charts that looked like had had breastfeeding on them so maybe that is something there?? I BF'd Tyler til 8 months, we used no contraceptive just were abit more careful round fertile patches and nada but I stopped BFing him and BFP (then MC). Not that thhat will help overly since you can't really go cold turkey on BFing but it might set your mind as ease abit. Are you charting? Do you know when you're oving? I don't think its naff seriously the first month trying with Ty and I was full stressing like I'd been trying for a year though I actually ended up with a BFP straight away. Its the whole baby drive its just natural.
HTH anyway xox

dont worry RJ, the thread is for people like us who have already had a child as there is quite a few for a first timers.

Me- stopped breast feeding about a month ago when E was 8 months, done a prg test incase was neg, which is good for now, this morning have a (TMI) a lil brownish dishcharge. so Af pretty much round corner i think.

RJ- i think BF can effect ov but depends how much your feeding i think. can makeit go either way, I have heard u are more likely to concieve twins while BF

Well, I was worried about bf affecting fertility, but decided that I wasn't going to stop 'just in case' it was - my af returned at 6mths post birth, I finally weaned when she was over 2yrs, but weaning didn't make a difference (in fact, for me, it seemed to have a negative effect - I went from ovulating to not ovulating - but I don't think thats normal).

I have decided that it doesn't matter if you are ttc for 1mth or 10yrs, it still hits hard - its just that the longer you are ttc, the more time you have to evaluate your attitude!

Oh, by the way, I am ttc #2.

Oh, and Kelz, I think its normal to take a few months to get back to normal (varying length cycles etc)! But hope AF stays away for you!

We are TTC #3. This is my second month so hopefully FXx we'll be UTD.

But last month I'm sure we did everything right and nothing.

I got UTD with DS 2nd month, bf him for 6 weeks then had AF back regular from 7 weeks.
With DD I got UTD on first month, bf her for 16 months got AF back when she was 6 months and its been between 26-32 days.

So we'll see.

Hey guys,

We are going to start TTC soon, at the moment we aren't preventing and haven't really since DS was bout 12weeks old. I only stopped BF a month ago, but I'm pretty sure I haven't been OVulating, although my last 2 cycles were regular but really long 40day cycles. So I've decided to start charting again CD 15 today and no signs of ovulation.

Oh and I will be TTC number 4. I have 3 boys aged 11, 8 and 11 months, and no I'm not trying for a girl although would be an added bonus

FX #2 wont take to much longer kazza.

welcome dnyen, wow 3 boys must keep u busy, Hope charting helps u see if u r Ov'ing or not

Hi ladies :)
I have an 18 month old daughter whom I just finished up breastfeeding early August.
We are trying to conceive baby number 2, started trying December last year so now in our 10th month of trying! Am hopeful pregnancy will happen in the next few months or so now no longer breastfeeding.
By the way baby number 1 took 5 months to conceive.

Hope to hear of some BFP's for you ladies soon!

Fx it wont take much longer babybear.

Af has now finished so now to wait for O which not sure when it will happen since this only my 2nd cycle since having E.

Waiting for fluffy mail to arrive, i get so excited about new mcn's
