TTC October 2020 Babies

Hi all! I'm back in the TTC game as of today. I just got my first post postpartum period so now I feel like I can try and track ovulation. I ordered some OPKs and will start using them in a week or so. I can't track BBT this time around because of my DD.

I used this site heavily while trying to conceive our daughter and made a bunch of friends that I still talk to. I'm looking forward to meeting some new ladies and sharing in this TTC journey again.

Here's a little bit about me. I started TTC in 2017 and it took us 9 months of tracking to get our first BFP. Our daughter was born on Valentine's day 2019 and is almost one! We want our kids about 2 years apart but know that it's not really our choice. We are hoping it will take 9 months (cycles) or less to conceive baby number 2. I expect to have irregular cycles starting out because we are still breast feeding. I had very regular periods before getting pregnant.

So! Who is trying for October babies and how's it going?

Mine were short at first....first cycle this last baby was like 8 days and same thing happened the time before as well. I conceived 2nd cycle this time which makes me wonder if that contributed to my MC i didn’t have AF between MC and this time but hormones are kicking. PP time before last baby first cycle was 7 day luteal, then 9, then up again. Hopefully yours gets on track quick

After my first I used opk’s Before I ever got my first post part in period. My timing was great for the first egg, but luteal phase was only 8 days. Caught the next egg though and had my second daughter!

Dana- I have a 3 (on Friday) & 4 year old. We are trying for #3 as well. My husband is t motivated to really ‘try’ and is fine with just the two, but says he will be happy if we have another, too. I desperately want at least 1 more, maybe 2. If we don’t conceive this cycle- I’m planning to relax a bit until spring, then start actively trying again. (Winter birthdays around here are kinda a bummer). Hoping this will be our month and we can have an October baby! Good luck to you! I hope this is your month!

@Kahlan+NatsMomma - Thank you for the luck and for sharing your OPKs. Seeing someones elses ups and downs is helpful and encouraging that I'll get there too. If we caught the first egg I would be shocked and over the moon!

I hope you catch that egg this month!

Kaybee & Flamingogirl- it is so frustrating! I totally understand- but the multiple surges are my norm- usually the third is my charm, but sometimes 4or 5.
I really hope yours come soon and you both catch the egg!!

I got pregnant twice while breastfeeding and NO cycles.....so I would say just go for it!! Don’t stress to much over it, you can still ovulate without a cycle while breastfeeding. Good luck!!!
