I am out this cycle, anyone else want to join? Think I’ll ovulate around 29th June.

Ttc after an mmc and d and c in April, and took May off but think that was an anovulatory cycle anyway. Have a lovely three year old conceived through ivf.

Hello there! I'm going to start ttc baby #2 in the next week or so but apprehensive to take my patch off as I would ideally need to get pregnant super fast to not feel the pmdd symptoms which might be unlikely considering a period can take some time to happen after a patch removal but hey ho!

My dd was born in December 2023 and I had a chemical pregnancy August 2024.

Good luck - sending baby dust💓 ✨️

Hello! This is our first month TTC ☺️
I’ve been using the ovulation strips as due to ovulate tomorrow - I’m starting to rise today but have had low levels so far. I have to admit I’m a bit clueless so let’s see how we get on.
Good luck to everyone xx

Hopefulbutexhausted · 12/06/2026 18:40

Im also out this cycle. And I was a day late too so stupidly had my hopes up. Also trying after a d&c but am sadly on month 9 trying.
I have a wonderful two year old I’m trying to cherish as much as possible

Hi,
ttc second child but first with my new partner. I had my coil removed at the tail end of last month and decided to count this one out. Hopefully I’ll ovulate the first week of July.

its been five years since ive been though this, it feels like th unknown!!

good luck everyone xx

Posypear · 13/06/2026 06:16

TTC DC2. Trying sperm meets egg which worked for us second time in 2024. I'm 36 now so hoping everything is still working okay. Good luck ladies!

NotAHappyBunnyHugger · 13/06/2026 12:41

Hi everyone! I'm also TTC this month. First month properly trying for our first child so we're very excited and nervous. I'm due to ovulate around 18th and am going to start doing ovulation strips tomorrow evening
Sorry to hear about your miscarriage @theotherfossilsister. I hope things go better for you this time
@TheUniqueMember I'm also dreading probably having to deal with PMS along with the disappointment of not being pregnant (I suspect I also have PMDD). Fingers crossed it happens quickly for us!

Hermioninny · 13/06/2026 14:41

Hi, I was lurking but decided to join in. Already have DC4 and DC2, both very luckily conceived on the first cycle. Hoping 3rd time is a charm but being realistic I think we might have to try a bit harder this time round. Just entering the TWW so fingers crossed.

MultilingualMummy · 13/06/2026 14:48

I’ll join this thread as well! Current 6dpo but I know I’m out as we didn’t hit the right days. Just want AF to hurry up so we can give it a real shot next cycle.

DmcinT · 13/06/2026 17:14

I’ll join too 🙌🏽 think I ovulated Thursday so just into the tww as well @Hermioninny

we’ve been ttc #2 since Sept 25, had a miscarriage in April so keeping everything crossed it’ll happen with a successful outcome soon. I’m 41 so praying it can still happen. Baby dust to everyone for this cycle ✨

theotherfossilsister · 13/06/2026 18:32

@DmcinT im 41 as well, just had my birthday in May. Desperately hoping. The mx made me realise how badly we wanted this.

I’m also in a chat for people who had MCs around April if you want to join, although nowadays we mainly chat about what we’re watching or eating for dinner xx

We're going to need all the fingers and toes crossed dealing with those horrible symptoms while trying to stay positive😅✨️

LucyCL · 15/06/2026 06:09

Hello I will join as well. Currently I am waiting for AF to arrive today or tomorrow. It will be the 6th postpartum cycle to ttc No.2. It took me 10 cycles to conceive No.1 so I feel calm and hopeful. Look forward to seeing what the next cycle will bring to me. 😀Good luck to everyone!

Hermioninny · 15/06/2026 10:27

I’m sure I’m only 2/3DPO, didn’t use OPKs, just tracking with Flo and CM, but since last night our dog has been so clingy! She was like this with my eldest too. Trying not to read into it but it’s so hard not to look for signs. I swear time slows down in the TWW.

Posypear · 15/06/2026 13:53

@LucyCL love this attitude! @Hermioninny fingers crossed - animals are very intuitive aren't they?
I'm wondering if I missed my ovulation day? I'm tracking on natural cycle and took ovulation tests from D12 but missed d13 as we were travelling. I'm now on d15 but still negative. Hopefully I'm covered but annoying as trying to do sperm meets egg which worked first time last go.

wishful08 · 15/06/2026 18:10

Hello all, would love to join! Nearly halfway through the tww.. Good luck to everyone!☺️x

ByAquaFox · 15/06/2026 20:30

Hey everyone! Still no period arrived. Im wondering what vitamins people are using like pregnacare or just plain old folic acid? I am currently using conceive plus ones but ive just read reviews that say they delayed people's cycles which would explain mine so im going to stop taking them and see if it comes.

Hermioninny · 15/06/2026 21:24

I’m sticking to folic acid and high dose of vitamin D. I read that a lot of people had trouble with pregnacare etc so always avoided them. I only remembered today that I need to stop my usual supplements (includes vit A and ashwagandha) but I don’t think they’d have any effect yet if this cycle works.

LucyCL · 16/06/2026 00:25

AF just arrived which makes me very happy! The data of the first previous 5 postpartum cycles tells me that my body is definitely going back to its pre pregnancy state. New cycle, new hope! ❤

ByAquaFox · 16/06/2026 07:18

@Hermioninny what dose of vitamin D you using ?

Hermioninny · 16/06/2026 10:23

@Hermioninny what dose of vitamin D you using ?

It’s the Better You vitamin D3 and K2 spray, 3000ių

NotAHappyBunnyHugger · 16/06/2026 10:33

I've been taking folic acid (400mcg) and vitamin D (10 mcg) since March but just switched to a pregnancy multivitamin which contains both. It also has folic acid in the form of methylfolate which I've read has better bioavailability.

I've also been taking Coenzyme Q10 (200mg) but only for the past couple of weeks. A sciencey friend who's having IVF was telling me about how it can improve egg quality.

I’m on cycle day one with a huge hormonal sadness today. Starting evening primrose this month. I have no ewcm because I have Sjögren’s syndrome but hoping this will change things. I’d like to do SMEP but hard to get partner on board. Feel proper beaten up by hormones today. I hope everyone else is ok xx
