Hey guys, so I'm 10dpo, having (good) symptoms and hoping by valentine's day I'll be getting a bfp, but if not roll on next month, is anyone in a similar boat and wanna share their story? This is my 12 cycle after 3 mc

Hey, hope you don't mind me joining in. I'm due this week, probably 12 or 13 feb. Do you usually get cramps before your AF? I do, and some spotting, but can't help but believe I'm still in with a chance.

Due 15th. I doubt I'll last until Friday before I test. I have 4 FRERs. Trying to hold off until Wednesday.

@Bunnycharm32 hey thanks for joining, Tbh I can't remember what I'm like before a normal period when not trying but I'm sure I wouldn't be getting cramps 5 or 6 days before , this whole ttc is so hard on our bodies, have you tested yet?

They’re just the standard First Response Early Response tests but I tend to buy them from Amazon where they’re cheaper.

BFN this morning. Feeling quite crampy and very bloated but I’m telling myself not to get my hopes up this month. Also read a really negative thread about women my age conceiving which made me feel quite hopeless about it all.

Hey @Sazzy312 haven't tested, no. Just feels very much like af coming with cramps and bit of spotting Sad

@bitheby, ah right thanks, I'll have a look for some, aww sorry you got a bfn how many days post ovulation are you? Aw that's rubbish about the negative thread you read, it's a shame not all threads are helpful, this is my 12 cycle so I'm feeling fed up with it all

@Bunnycharm32, sorry to hear your cramping and spotting, its hard not to get your hopes up, I'm currently sat with a hot water bottle, but I have tried acupuncture this month and he said about keeping the womb warm can help with implantation ect so I'm still hopefully

Hi
AF should be due on 14th so will likely test this weekend too.
Also had 3 MC in last 9months so appears we’re in the same boat. I’ve been referred to recurrent miscarriage clinic only had blood tests so far.
Fingers crossed we all have a baby to look forward to in 2020

Also due to test on the 14th! I couldn't help myself and tested yesterday morning and got a BFN, so not holding out much hope.

Hey @Bathwater hope you get your bfp at the weekend, I'm so sorry to hear you've been through so many in 9 months, I went to the clinic but didn't find anything wrong, which is sort of good but sort of annoying, yes fingers crossed we all get our happy ending

@Sazzy312 yeah I’m not hopeful they’ll find anything that is fixable but it’s early days in comparison to some!

Hopefully @sazzy321 I did test again today and nothing, just too impatient and over analysing everything 🤦🏼‍♀️

How have you been doing?

Guess we are all just counting down the days, best of look to everyone, cant wait to hear all your updates 🤞🏻
