TTC October 2020 Babies

View Full Post

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?

13dpo and stark whites. Been bawling every day since that evap got me on 9dpo. I am ready for AF to come tomorrow as this cycle was a long one and I ovulated late and I'm over it emotionally.

No more TTC for us. Just not preventing. Best of luck to you ladies.
I hope we get our baby but I think it's best for my mental health if I give up the opks, the obsessing, the testing, and all that comes with the intentional TTC.

People swear it works sometimes. I'm exhausted.

to all.

@Kaybee I'm sorry to hear that you are exhausted. But I have been where you are ttc#1 and now ttc#2 I'm not too far either. A break is important for our sanity and maybe once you relax, you will get your Bfp.

Good luck to the waiting to ovulate.
No AF yet. Now 2 days late.

@Kaybee - Sorry to see you go and I hope the end of your TTC journey was a postive choice and allows you to move forward with your family. Thank you for joining us this month.

@Noodlebug16 - Congrats Mama! When is your due date?

AFM - AF arrived today with hardly any warning and very little cramps so far. I must have ovulated at some point. I'm glad my cycle was only 33 days though so I think I'm trending back to my normal. I'll try the OPKs again this cycle and see if we achieve a November baby. Good luck to everyone in their TWW .
