Hello all,
I'm new and wanting some advice. I'm wanting to conceive bubba #2 and we tried this month without success.
I have a daughter who we conceived on our 1st month of trying so i had just assumed it would be easy again this time.
I am aware of when I ovulate as I get cramping, and sure enough 14 days later I usually get my AF (and same case this month). Last month I ovulated at a time when both myself and my husband were sick but we gave it a try anyway. A week after OV i got pains and cramping just like I did when I conceived my daughter and so i assumed it was the egg implanting and thought everything was looking positive. I was so sure I was pregnant and was getting the same feelings I'd gotten the first time I conceived.

To put my thoughts at ease last week I did a test which came up negative. I thought I might have tested too early so waited till yesterday and tested again but again negative. This morning AF arrived.

I'm confused by the fact that I thought I had gotten implemantion cramps, my BB's were tender etc but still got a negative. Would the fact we were both sick during ovulation been the main reason or can anyone give me any other suggestions??

I'm so worried that I'm going to have problems conceiving this time round. I really wanted to conceive last month so that baby #2 would be due May. I wanted this baby to be due early next Winter so that it didn't overlap with my daughters birthday.

Very disappointed and looking for some suggestions or feedback.. What can I do to increase my chances for next month?
