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,
@Brittany I am using easy@home and clear blue pink Digi they are a bit pricey. I am not sure if I will ov this cycle. They look like they are darkening a bit but cycles are now 25-30.
@Flamingo I heard good things any pregmate. I might try them next cycle if necessary.
AFM fertility doc on Monday. Hoping to be considered for iui.
Everyone else how are you? I'm kn. Cd12

Hi Roseevee - that’s smart not to get pregnancy tests to early. I just bought myself 4 more from the dollar store and I’m only 7 DPO :-S crazy tester lady over here (pointing at myself). Anyone else having crazy vivid dreams? I keep dreaming that I either get my period or am in labour or that I have my miscarried babies. Also nervous about stuff like having hot baths or a drink or two which I assume is a no-no. Wish I knew for sure if hubby “got me” this cycle.

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!!
