who else is TTC #2? (or 3...4...)
How old are your other DC?
How old were they when you started TTC again?
Are you doing anything different this time around?
How are you hoping your TTC journey and/or pregnancy will be similar to last time? How are you hoping it will be different?

who else is TTC #2? (or 3...4...)
My kids are 7 and almost 9. I'm remarried and have been trying for #3 for two years now. My son was 1 when I got pregnant with my daughter. And I got pregnant with her within 3 months of trying. My son took 9 months to conceive. So this time is so beyond frustrating. My first pregnancy was super easy. No sickness just alot of major mood swings. My second pregnancy I was so sick thru the whole thing, it was all I could do to eat instant potatoes. I wish this round of ttc would just happen, but I've taken the focus off and have gotten into some hobbies. I've just hit the point where I don't care if it happens anymore. I told my dh if I'm still not pregnant by this time next year that I'm done. I know it sounds harsh, but I'm not getting any younger and I do at times wonder if I really want to start over with a newborn. I feel for everyone out there that's ttc and having difficulty. I know how it feels and how frustrating it is with every passing month of you think you are and then bam hello auntie flow lol. Sorry for the rant I'm just frustrated and most people don't understand and there's alot of people that don't even know we've been trying.

i'm trying again. we are. we have a pre-schooler. and i have to remember to relax because that's how we did it last time.
also, working out helped, so trying to do that. cutting back on caffeine certainly helped the zen-baby-making.
nothing different, except i'm not taking pre-natals. i should be. at least the folic acid.
i hope it's easier on my weight. and i hope i don't give in to cravings the way i did the first time where i gained nearly 70lbs.

Re: who else is TTC #2? (or 3...4...)
How old are your other DC?
DD turned 2 in March
How old were they when you started TTC again?
DD was 18 months when we started TTC #2
Are you doing anything different this time around?
This time we went straight to the RE instead of waiting 6 months.
How are you hoping your TTC journey and/or pregnancy will be similar to last time?
I am hoping that this pregnancy will be as easy as the last. I never had m/s or was over tired.
How are you hoping it will be different?
Last time it took 9 months, and we are now on month 7. I really hope it happens soon. I also hope that I don't get corporal tunnel in the 3rd Tri this time around.

2.5 Years Old

2.5 (just started TTC)

Last time I was very obsessed with temping and testing for ovulation and the month I got pregnant was a month that we took a little break. So this time around I am just going to go with the flow and not stress too much. I will continue to take 800mg of Folic Acid which I think helped too.

It took us about 5 month to conceive the first time, I am hoping it takes less time then that lol.

Dd just turned 1 on Friday
How old were they when you started TTC again?
I just realized that I'm ready within the last month but I haven't been on bc since my dd was born. No af yet (dd is still comfort nursing 2x per day) so not sure what to expect.
Are you doing anything different this time around?
Last time we were about to start tracking cycles etc when we found out I was pregnant. Since we have a little less privacy/energy with dd being around I'm thinking of trying the smileys once af comes back.
How are you hoping your TTC journey and/or pregnancy will be similar to last time? How are you hoping it will be different?
Hoping for a similar experience. I was tired all the time but otherwise had a pretty easy time. I could ask to have more energy but that just seems greedy haha.

Trying for #2
DS is 21 months and we just started trying
Last time I got pregnant I was taking mucinex and elevating my pelvis after DTD. I haven't done it yet but I think next cycle i will. This time around I will try to eat more foods known to assist with fertility. I had a decent pregnancy the first time. My nausea wasn't any more or less than what I would consider normal. My cravings were ice and the smell of new vinyl, rubber or plastic. Luckily that meant I didn't gain much due to cravings since i ate ice all day. I kinda hope I don't do that this time...my teeth can't handle the sensitivity.
I'm worried how tired I'll be bc my son is a typical boy...throwing himself on me jumping from couch to couch, playing rough. He takes alot of my energy.
The first pregnancy I lost, I was an oily faced mess...hope that doesn't happen again. That's really about it. I had a great delivery...though I hope my recovery is easier and breastfeeding goes better this time around. I had major blood pressure issues post delivery with my son and i think all the stress killed my supply right from the start. I'd really like to give BFing another go.

Re: who else is TTC #2? (or 3...4...)
DD turned 2 in March. I'm going to start trying for #2 in a couple months. I was thinking late Summer/early Fall.
Not really planning on doing anything different. Just lots of  & OPKs

DS is 25 months. I was 36, but I am 37. We have just been messing around, though. May will be hardcore then we'll stop in June/July and go hardcore starting in Aug. Unless May works out
I want things to be jut about the same, though it would be nice to actually feel pregnant and to show more. I think this time I will totally exhausted, since i already am! My last preg was so easy, that would be nice again!
