Trying for baby number 3

We have a 3 year old and a 10 month old but it took us like 5-6 months to get pregnant with number two so we started trying sooner this time. I got my period in the middle of august and I ovulated afterwards but since I haven’t had a period for like 1.5 years idk when it’s supposed to come. I had to be on period starter and ovulation stuff in order to get pregnant with baby number two. Idk how long I should wait before calling the doctor. According to my records my period 2 years ago were 40-45 days apart 🙄 it’s been 31 days. No test has come back positive yet so idk what to do

Well if you know you ovulated in August then you should get your period 10-16 days after this. Luteal phase generally range from 10-16 days and do not go over 16 days. So if your period does not arrive then you can safely assume that you did not ovulate when you thought you did.

I don’t know what the guidance is in USA, but in the UK a doctor won’t do any testing until it’s been a year of trying. I assume as you pay for healthcare you can go to the doctor before this though?
Also, 5-6 months of trying isn’t very long, it takes the average couple anything up to a year to conceive but appreciate you don’t want it to take this long

IMO it’s not too early to call doctor. I’d rather be proactive about it. I have irregular cycles as well.

Look up maca root it helps you ovulate but is natural

Chemical pregnancy or too early ?

I did a test last night and straight away the positive line came up. When I tested again this morning it’s negative. My period isn’t due until Tuesday but feeling really crap and pregnant for the last week

Ovulation

If I had sex yesterday (Saturday) n my ovulation date is on Tuesday is it possible I could get pregnant?

Anyone had a super early postive ?

Hi am i seeing things ? It's only 6 dpo. I had a chemical pregnancy start of February then a period then a positive ovulation strip a week ago Could this be the left over after the chemical ? It just seems so early. This is an early detection test. This came up within 2 minutes of dipping and it says to wait 3 minutes. I've taken two after that arnt as early detection but still what I think are faint positives ? All appeared withing the recommended time frames xxx

At 8DPO negative test result

At 8 DPO not even a faint line , a straight negative test . So does that means it’s a no pregnancy for me this month . Or there are future chances for hcg to rise

Could this be like my ovulation is about to start from this ovulation test

I had my period on the 15 of march and my cycle is 23 days from the picture will be that I’m ovulating

I'm so not meant to be a mother.

My kids won't listen to me get into stuff when they know they aren't supposed to. Telling me no all the time. Only listen to their dad. Laughs when I correct them. I spend most of my time yelling at them because they don't want to listen to me at all. My husband said that I shouldn't have kids. And I am believing him on it. I was never meant to be a mother now. I won't hurt my kids I just want to disappear and make everyone else's lives better without me.
