TTC after miscarriage - end of January 2020 testing

[MilsCookie]

Hey @Anny27 @ChampooPapi @BS9790 @Cruiser1 @mlax @ELM7 @SweetpeaOrMarigold !

I don’t think I’ve got everyone so please tag anyone else who is still in TWW/planning on testing from now - end of the month.

This is for when we run out of space on the other thread! Then from here we can move to the Feb group set up by @terribleimagination or hopefully a pregnancy thread 😊

On CD28 currently and did a test this morning - BFN. AF due CD33-34 so hopefully was just too early 🙈.

Baby dust to all! 💫🍀💖

[mlax]

Thank you @milscookie.

Just writing on this post so it's on my 'watching'!! X

CD24 for me, AF due CD29. Same as @MilsCookie, did a test this morning and BFN. Hoping its just too soon, but not feeling confident x

[Littlegoth]

Please can I join? 3 x MC, recent APS diagnosis. In last days of 2WW and restricted my testing to once a day

[MilsCookie]

Of course @Littlegoth !! So sorry to hear of your losses 😔 you are an incredibly strong woman - don’t forget that! Sending lots of luck to you 💫🍀🍀🍀

[Anny27]

Thanks for setting up :)

The spotting that I had yesterday has gone now so dont think it was AF as temps still high so praying that it is implantation bleeding 🙌🙌🙌

Testing on Friday morning so we will see!

Still constipated, a bit baggy and full boobs

[ChampooPapi]

@MilsCookie we love you!

Lord are we all a mess today or what?! I'm now full of another head cold lurg thing so I officially wave my white flag at the world. This week is shit 🙄

Thank goodness for you ladies, sure we'll re join on the February thread but I had to keep the hope until af arrives with you all

[MilsCookie]

@ChampooPapi oh noooo you caved!! 🙈 just like me!! Oh god I’m only on my first official cycle since the mmc. I have NO idea how women do this month after month. There are some unbelievably strong ladies out there 💪🏼 let’s hope we were just too early. 🤞

@Anny27 it all sounds very promising for you! I am so excited to see how you get on on Friday! 🍀💖

I also just feel a bit of a mess today. Stupid to do that test because it was a bfn and now I feel really down. Even though rationally I KNOW it’s too early. All I want to do is order a dominos and veg out on the sofa and eat a TON of chocolate.

Btw I was wondering if anyone was from Oxfordshire? I have just moved to this area after travelling and need some friends haha 😊

[ChampooPapi]

@MilsCookie Devon I'm afraid, otherwise you could come wallow and watch coach trip with me in your pyjamas

[ELM7]

Thank you @MilsCookie for keeping us all together.

Lots of us seem to be struggling at the mo guess it’s the Jan blues and all the tricks our bodies play on us plus hormones flying! Glad we have each other to get through it.

@Anny27 really hope it was implantation bleeding yesterday and that BFP is coming for you. 🤞🏻

[ChampooPapi]

I'm only on my third cycle since, and I have two children already so I need someone to basically shout some sense directly into my face at this point.

The miscarriage has just become to take over my entire internal life, it has become something that is actually beginning to define me.

It's not good, it's bloody ridiculous and terrible but I've total lost control this month. I am making some serious promises for month 4 if this inevitably doesn't go well this month.

[ELM7]

@MilsCookie sorry I’m Dorset. The image I now have of all us being in one place wallowing on the sofa with a stack load of chocolate! 😂

@ChampooPapi - I’m addicted to celebrity coach trip!!

[ChampooPapi]

@Anny27 everything crossed, I mean EVERYTHING. We need a bfp here, like we need air at the moment.

@ELM7 Brendon is brain balm, he is getting me through this week 💪🏳️‍🌈

[MilsCookie]

@ChampooPapi coach trip in pyjamas sounds dreamy 😍 shame you’re so far away! And @ELM7 !! I so wish we could all be wallowing in real life together haha. I think it would make it easier!!
BUT we will get through this and have our babies eventually! 💪🏼

[ELM7]

I’m sure Brendon would love to know that he is keeping us sane for an hour a day @ChampooPapi 😂 x

[ChampooPapi]

@ELM7 oh I'm binge watching today so I think it'll be more like 8 hours of Brendon love, god I'd do anything for that man 😆

[ChampooPapi]

@ELM7 I plan on getting to the point where I actually believe I'm in coach trip today.

Could definitely be a million worse things I could be doing so will endeavour to keep grateful and focus on Brendon and not babies today 🙏

[GemLou88]

Hi Ladies. I’ll be watching this group too. First cycle since MMC so don’t know if I’ll go back to my regular or not. If so AF due 28th so will be testing end of the month too xx

[MilsCookie]

@GemLou88 sorry for not tagging you at the beginning - I couldn’t remember who was testing when!! Fingers crossed for you my lovely 🍀😘

[GemLou88]

@MilsCookie that’s ok. There’s so many of us and everyone has something going on. Sometimes it’s hard to keep track! But it’s so lovely that everyone is supportive. Fingers crossed for you all too

[ChampooPapi]

@GemLou88 how are you getting on? Please tell me your going as mad as the rest of us 😆

[GemLou88]

@ChampooPapi definitely going mad. That's why I'm so glad this forum exist. I don't think many people would understand the urge to pee on a stick or get excited over EWCM. I was expecting myself to be symptom spotting and wanting to test. But I never expected all this tracking to ttc to be so bloody confusing and frustrating!

How is everyone getting on in their TWW? Who has what symptoms?

[FireflyGirl]

I poas this morning. I'm on cd19

In fairness, I used to ovulate earlier than currently predicted, pre-mc, and I've had sore boobs since the weekend and felt nauseous this morning. Have I convinced you I'm not a loon yet?

I'm waiting to see if I get more stretching pains in my uterus and (not scientifically proven, but happened with both previous MC) if my average heart rate according to my Fitbit increases. Those have been more accurate for me than nausea and sore boobs.

I've never watched Coach Trip, and am much further north than you guys, but a day spent in my PJs watching TV sounds amazing...

[MilsCookie]

@FireflyGirl hahaha that made me laugh 🤣 interesting that your heart rate went up last two times you were pg. Maybe you could do a scientific study about this!! 👀

@GemLou88 symptoms wise the main thing for me is that my boobs don’t hurt in the slightest. Which I know sounds weird but I always get sore boobs 7-10 days before AF arrives without fail. The one time I didn’t get sore boobs was the month I was pregnant. Then I got horrendously painful boobs at about 5-6 weeks pregnant. I also have been feeling a little bit nauseous for the last few days, had on and off cramps/dull aches in my abdomen, a strange taste in my mouth (although now I can’t tell if that’s just how my mouth usually tastes?!) and I’ve started feeling really tired the last two days early in the afternoon.

What about everyone else?

Currently on CD28 and I cannot believe how long this week is draaaaaagggggiiiiiiiing 😩😩😩

[kkr168]

I'm still on the tww, I'm only 6dpo, not sure when AF is due as this will (hopefully not) be my 1st period since mc.
My cycles were 24 days, going by that I ovulated late on cd16? This is my 1st month actively ttc, tracking ovulation, temp, etc so it may well be normal for me to ovulate later in my cycle!!
