Ready For Baby #2 - Any Tips? 💡

Question

I'm back on Glow after 6 months of having my first baby and I'm really ready for baby #2! 👶👶
I'm breastfeeding and haven't had my period yet. 
Any tips from you ladies out there who have seen or heard of helpful tips and tricks to get pregnant while breastfeeding? 🤞

Answer

I tried geritol. I got my period back one time and I got pregnant right after.

Answer

Eating more can help! I started setting alarms to make sure I wasn't forgetting to eat and finally got my cycle back. I have 3 girls already so with all the craziness I found I would go days at a time some weeks.

Answer

Look into relative metabolic load. I'm 8 months pp and have been working on that the past week or two and I just started spotting, so I'm pretty excited that things might be happening!

Answer

Following! I’m 15 months postpartum without a period and ttc #2. I’m beginning to get discouraged I may have to fully wean before conceiving again 😫

Answer

I found ovulation tests really helpful in getting pregnant the first time. I have PCOS so my cycles were really long and scattered. A few months of tracking with ovulation tests, I think, was a huge reason I got pregnant. I did see a strong line a few weeks ago but at that point, I just did one out of curiosity. I only decided to get serious and track daily, a few days ago. Based on the first test, looks like I could have possibly ovulated the first week of July. Now my tests lines are really faint. I plan on continuing to track to see if there is potentially an ovulation in the future. I did speak to my doctor, he said it's very possible to ovulate without having a period. He said that the ovulation tests are a good idea,

if that's something I wanted to do.

Answer

Hey. I’m also 6mpp and though we’re not TTC yet we might be soon so I just joined this group to see what it’s about lol 🙂

Answer

I've been in this boat for a while! I did what all was recommended and reduced nursing sessions -- finally ended up having to fully wean. It's been just about a month and still no cycle. However I did start taking Premamma (conceive) for the past 30 days. I didn't get my cycle back BUT for the first time in months I got a positive OPK. Im literally on my 3rd box of (50count and it's almost empty)  of OPKs that I order from Amazon. I have been testing EVERY DAY to try and get a positive LH surge.
