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?

Hello everyone,
It seems like we are most in the tee. Saw doc and she agrees for next cycle Femara cd3-7 50mg iui. But now we have to figure out whether insurance will cover or not. All my tests look great. Just thyroid levels are high and I'm trying to lose weight. DH swimmers are perfect. So fingers crossed that insurance can cover. Should have AF this week. Baby dust everyone.

@Mommy2021 - I'm not sure how to get your leutal phase to be longer. Have you posed this as a questions to the whole CTP community? You might get some more ideas if more people see it!
AFM - I never got an equal sign on my OPKs it looked like I was starting to get a surge three times, each 4 days or so apart from each other. After taking OPKs for 2 weeks I got tired of it and we'll just see what happens. I'm expecting this to be a long cycle at this point At least 40-50 days long. DH and I are just going to BD every 2-3 days and if we catch it we do. If not hopefully my next cycle will be shorter. I will try the OPKs again after my next period!
to all in their TWW!

Hi Kaybee I can see that too fingers crossed.
@Mommy 28 days cycle is 14 days luteal , so 23 days should be 9 days luteal. I don t think there is a way to make them longer. Mine suddenly got shorter too but I do prefer them shorter now. It just means that you ovulate really really early. I would suggest that you start opk as soon as AF leaves you.
@Flamingo and @Kbeans fingers crossed.
How is everyone else doing?
AfM I am 85% sure that AF will be here in the next 2-4 days so no need to test.

Jumping on the post here as also in my TWW. I am 6dpo on my first cycle of using clear blue advanced fertility monitor. We have been trying for 2 years now, put LB was born Sep 2017 and we struggled for him so never went back on contraception after him. I have 1 more cycle after this one to conceive before taking a break for wedding planning and making sure I can get my body how I want it for the wedding. Really hoping this is our month!!
Baby dust all x
