Kellz isn't it funny I found temping made it way less stressful coz I could see what my body was doing so knew what my chances were for a BFP (though we've neer actually had a chance to chart for a BFP just used it as birth control lol).

Good luck Bessie Bear, I have my fingers crossed for you!! (Maybe we can all join you and have a mass 3rd child due in May!!)

I dont think opk's would be very good for me, my cycles lately have been about 60-70 days long, I would go through SO many each cycle!!!

I stocked up on AF products the other day again though in the hope that Murphy's law might happen and I dont need them!!!

I dont have much clue about temping at all.
Using opks but not temping yet. I find that last week before my period is due really tough mentally, and I find it easier to cope by blocking out all things baby from my head,...so Im not temping cos i think it would make me stress more by having to take my temp each day during that time.
I would like to be preg within the next 6 months so Im not heavily preg/due in Dec/Jan/Feb. ]]> Tue, 30 Aug 2011 08:09:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40040&PID=1381657&title=3-taking-longer-than-first-2#1381657 <![CDATA[#3 taking longer than first 2? : I am somewhere in my cycle, I...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40040&PID=1381653&title=3-taking-longer-than-first-2#1381653 Author: boys.boys.boys.boys

hey ladies
we are ttc for our 5th baby.

ds1 - took 6mths, though he wasnt planned we werent preventing either.

ds2 - we had only started to discuss another baby and i was pregnant.

ds3 - took 10mths but i was breastfeeding.

ds4 - we were ttcing 8mths

well ds4 was suppose to be our last so i tried BC i tried depo, then mirena that came out and we decided we would like another baby but af had some bad reaction to depo wearing on and mirena hormones. so went on some pill which i stuck to for a month but hated coz it made me depressed. decided to just stop any BC and let body work its self out, now 1.5yrs after having ds4 i finally have a somewhat regular af but its still a bit long it was 42days for 2 cycles but the last cycle was 35days and I know I deff ov'd that month.
Im now looking at charting when af comes and have got heaps of opk's. I am pretty sure i ov'd in the last few days and also sure we missed it as dh has man flu.

I just thought I should probably update....I got a bit ahead of myself starting this thread! Turns out I AM pregnant this month...so didnt take long at all really! I really feel for all the people trying that are having no luck...it is a complete mind f**k - you are constantly aware of what day you are, where you should be, what may or may not be happening etc....I don't mean to sound naive or anything, I just don't know how you cope with going through that all for so long. I am such an impatient person, and found even this long a big screwy mind muck up!!

Hi ladies,
Well i can tell you that i concieved both my girls whilst using contraception and totally had the mindset that no contraception = a pregnancy, so totally thought it would happen first month.I went May, June not concieving and as im 40yrs this year i started to really panic and think omg ive left it too late, something must be wrong with me.Well i concieved this month-july and are currently just over 4wks preggers now-so keep at it ladies.
I used to read the TTC threads and think omg i dont even know that terminology, as id never had to.In saying that tho ive enjoyed the charting experience just to understand how my body works-but this month i stopped obsessing so much,obviously worked.

In my case it was #2 that was really hard to conceive, took 16 months! Bit of a shock when #1 was a bit of an accident.

#3 was a bit of a surprise as well as we weren't trying, well unprotected s*x but other than that we weren't trying cause of a miscarriage the month before. Definitely didn't time it for any particular time to the month either!

Hi ya :)
I'm new to Oh Baby...I have a 5 year old and 3 year old and both were concieved first month of trying.We are now TTC #3 and this is my second month with a BFN (and yup, I know it is ONLY 2 months...it's just 2 months longer than I thought!)...I am 27 and have anywhere from a 26-31 day cycle, but more often than not it is 28 days.

Just wondering if others ended up taking longer to concieve with subsequent children?

Thanks :)]]> Fri, 29 Jul 2011 13:31:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40040&PID=1368891&title=3-taking-longer-than-first-2#1368891
