@dragonfly23 Oh yeah, we'll definitely find out the gender but will wait until the 20 week ultrasound. I'm too much of a planner and hate surprises haha I'm thinking with our timing that it's probably a girl this time which I would looove! (I will be perfectly content with another boy too though!) also I don't remember any hint of queasiness this early with DS so that's leading me to believe it's a girl this time too. And yep! I did progesterone again this cycle. I actually increased the amount I did by a little so I'm wondering if that helped. I found a chart online that suggests how much to increase your dosage as you get closer to 12 weeks. I'll probably follow that just in case. So sorry to hear about the tragedy in your area... Prayers for you and all family involved.
@Kelliria Wow! You did show early! I doubt you'd show any earlier with the physically small size of the baby. I didn't get a bump until 15 or 16 weeks with my 2yo. but suspect I'll show somewhere around 12 this time too. I never lost my baby weight from 2016 either so you and I are in the same boat there too haha!

Hello everyone, this is my first time posting! Eek :)
We have been TTC our second since late December now to no avail so far. I conceived my first whilst taking the pill and had no idea I was pregnant until I was 7 weeks. She is now five and I've been waiting for my husband to be more comfortable with the idea of a 2nd since she was 18months. It's been a long and impatient wait and even more so now things don't seem to be happening as easily. Still! Positive thoughts and all that :)
I am currently 8DPO. However between ovulation and AF I usually have tender breasts and do now, so it's not a 'sign' for me really. I only have a 25-day cycle on average with a shorter luteal phase of 8ish days.
I'm trying to keep afloat emotionally. A Christmas baby was my 'ideal world' situation. Silly to place that subconscious pressure on me too really! :)

@Holly_hulla. Good luck and hope you get your December baby. That's a really short luteal phase. Was it like that before you had your daughter? I had my DD March '16 and after that my cycles have been short. Figured I tried Maca as I read it can lengthen the LP so tried that the month I got pregnant and also decided to try progesterone cream as I lacked the post ovulation symptoms and spotted before AF which never happened to me before DD was born. When is your expected AF and do you plan on testing early? Do you track your BBT and cervix?
