Wasn’t sure where to put this… #2?

Hello all

I haven’t posted in a while… sorry 🤗

Well we’re not actually TTC but we have both always wanted 2 kids. It’s taken 11 years for me to become a mum after trying ev-er-y-thing from bbt charting to IVF, giving up and then miraculously conceiving naturally about 3 months later - my doctor was as baffled as we were!

I would say we’re NTNP and I put this here as it gives me an excuse to post a picture of my “little” May 2020 Pooh-Bear - cannot believe he’ll be 2 soon 😱 feels like yesterday I brought a tiny little wriggly thing home from the hospital! Now he’s running around, beating me up and chatting away

^ I just picked him up from his grandparents after I had a morning shift. We were on the train home and I’ve been trying to take more pictures where at least one of us are in the photo with him

Side question as a first time mum - those with boys - are they all rough and tumble? Mine is like a bull in a china shop!

Well…. Today for me is CD25 and according to the OBGYN who tracked my cycles when I was doing Clomid, then letrozole, then IVF, my O day is CD20.

She also pointed out that I reported aching near my ovaries during cycles were follicles were developing, whether or not they ended up actually being released (as I have PCOS and my ovaries are quite enlarged so get sore).

I didn’t realise at the time but we did have sex on CD20 and I did notice some uncomfortableness around there on that day and the day before and after.

Also for the past few days I cannot stop eating and drinking. I mean to the point I’m sitting there thinking if I don’t stop I’m going to end up putting back on all the weight I’ve lost… but then I still end up eating and drinking something!

My temperature has been up for at least the last 4 days. I didn’t notice before that so didn’t take my temps but 36.8 Celsius is my normal temp. It’s been 37.1 on CD22 and CD23, 37.2 yesterday and 37.3 today. I feel like I’m in a furnace. In F Google says my norm is 98.24 and today was 99.14 - IDK, I only understand Celsius 😂

I’ve been peeing all the time but that could be from all the stuff I’m drinking to be honest. And I am so sleepy. Any chance I get I am going back to bed and sleeping as long as I can - this from an insomniac!

I know all that sounds like I could be experiencing symptoms of early pregnancy with #2. But like I said, we’re “not trying, not preventing” and I’m not getting my hopes up. I’m just not. Just wanted somewhere to write because I can’t tell my husband anything. I KNOW he’ll get his hopes up sky-high instantly and I don’t want to disappoint him if/ when AF turns up in around 8-9 days.

I refuse to get my hopes up but I certainly won’t be upset if I end up posting a BFP announcement. If, BIG IF, I’m late I will do a test on CD 35

Much love to all and those lovely May 2020 bubbas
