August 2018 Babies
I was in July but AF has arrived with a vengeance so I'm moving on to TTC an August baby.
Technically this is my 2nd cycle TTC. We started in spring and conceived right away but it ended in a loss. So the first month we were able to try again was October. DH is a truck driver so that makes TTC very difficult. My midwife called in BCP for me today, and I'm going to take them for 2 weeks to delay ovulation so that it will match DH home time for the next 4 months. I'm also Homozygous MTHFR and clotting disorder, so I am on baby aspirin, prenatals with methylfolate, and will start lydia Pinkham when I stop BCP. I need O to occur between Nov 24-29. Any earlier and we will miss it. We are swaying Girl, but only because they are harder to get (for us) and plan two more children total. I'll be happy with whatever we get though!

Thank you for all your positive comments!! My due date is august31at!! I’ve already been in touch with the early pregnancy unit and they have asked me to come in for a scan at six weeks to check it isn’t ectopic. Every time I go to the toilet I’m expecting to see blood and a six week scan seems so far away! Even then, I’ll still be worried about seeing blood, as I’m sure you guys understand if you have experienced a loss. My boyfriend keeps telling me not to get tangled up in negative thoughts but it’s really really hard!!! So every little ting that’s happening to my body, I’m reading into. I’m just hoping that it all just works out!!! Has anyone else had a bfp? Or texting in the next few days?

@Bluepin I completely understand. I haven't had a loss but I'm so paranoid and we are telling our families on Christmas when I will just be getting into my 5th week so I hope everything works out! We just have to keep positive thoughts and remember that it is more common to have a healthy pregnancy than to miscarry. My due date is Aug 30th ! We are in the exact same spot! My doctor won't see my until 10 weeks though so it's going to be a looong wait.

Had my second ultrasound this morning. Was able to see baby and heartbeat :) they measured me at 6w5d. According to my LMP I was 7w4d. Dr said it's nothing to worry about.
I've been TTC since June 2016, with 1 miscarriage Dec 16. This cycle I used Soy Iso for the first time and it def seems like it did the trick. I'm so grateful. It's been a hard journey.

Congrats Twinkle! That's such great news!
AFM, I did take a test this morning and BFN. i do have a question for you ladies. My breasts are NOT sore at all! nothing! And it`s usually a huge sign for me getting AF. Even last month i had sore/sensitive nipples / breasts from like 5dpo, so i was like ok i am for sure pregnant but not the case because AF came. Anyways, anybody hear of this? Maybe they will get sore later on if I'm pregnant?
