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?

Hi all, @flamingo girl, I am having the exact same problem as you at the min, I’ve had 2 different days now where it looks like I’m going to surge but don’t, I swear I can feel my ovaries just waiting to erupt lol, tried to keep track of everyone’s name on this post to reply to u all but I’m so forgetful, first time using opks for me and I think I’m going to swap brands next month if I’m out this cycle, I’m on cd 13 at the min and had a high lh strip this morning but tonight I’ve just had my faintest one yet so haven’t a clue what’s going on, temps still low and no sign of ewcm yet, I’ll keep testing but I’m fed up of waiting already. @kaybee I no it’s frustrating but don’t lose hope, I was the same as u with my daughter and got my faint BFP at 13dpo, was testing from 8dpo so I defo thought I was out that month. @brittneyfisher719 I’ve had dull ovary pain since half way through last months cycle and I’ve had a cyst in the past before any babies, I had a 28 day cycle last month which is weird for me but only my second proper period since having implant out in Aug as I was on the pill straight after that, if I have no signs of ovulation this month and don’t get caught I will probably go to the doctors myself too, I’ve posted my lh strips with this post so u can have a look, so confused but trying to keep positive for a surge, I’m not impressed with the lack of cm this cycle either, not tried preseed before but it sounds good, good luck to everyone in this thread that I’ve missed and I hope we all get our surges or bfps very soon x

@naylore22 - looks to me like your OPK from this morning is an equal sign. I think that might be it for you! Does everyone get one that’s a dye stealer or does it vary between women? This is my first time using this type of OPK. Last time around I used the digitalis.
Tomorrow is my DDs first birthday! It’s also the day I should get my period if my cycles were regular. I would be shocked if I got it tomorrow! I think I may have O’d this week but I won’t know unless I get a period in two weeks. I may take a pregnancy test tomorrow just because it’s the day my apps and this website say to take one.

I've been trying for a year with 4 miscarriages.
This morning I got a faint but very obvious positive, I'm too anxious to believe I'm pregnant or that k won't miscarry again.
I've got nausea and fatigue so good signs I guess. My period isn't due until the 18th so I'll retest then and arrange to see my Dr.
