@Sleeeeeepy Sorry about your MC 😔 make sure you're taking care of yourself.
@Happyhappy37 Thank you 😊

I've just taken a test and it was a BFN ☹️ feeling very deflated.

@Sleeeeeepy thanks. 🤞🏽 For you.

Feeling really drained after that meeting.

Am in my fertile window and putting more effort in (hubby very happy with that). Having my clove tea twice a day. Should be ovulating tomorrow.

Lovely new thread. Should have called the doc today to discuss my results but I actually don’t want to hear what she’s got to say 😂 Will definitely call tomorrow.

Presuming I can’t do any TTC activity until I’ve got the go ahead from gynae. Have been doing my temps though and out of four temps that I’ve done I’ve got a dip and two higher temps after so I’m presuming FF will try and say I ovulated a couple of days ago if I get another rise tomorrow. No idea where the missing AF is (burying head in sand about peri menopause or cysts causing fertility chaos).

Hope your meeting wasn’t too bad @Happyhappy37. What’s the clove tea for? I haven’t heard of that one!

Hi to all the new joiners xx

Welcome to the newbies!!! 😃😃😃

@Happyhappy37 I saw you said midlife crisis in the last thread, so hope you're doing ok, lovely! Sorry to hear the parents meeting didn't go well either! Sending you much love! 😘

@Sleeeeeepy hope you're doing as best as you can be, and that the MC bleeding stops soon!! Sending you lots of love too!! 😘

@GuessHowMuch hope everything goes ok at the doctors tomorrow!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Please keep us posted! 😘

As for my crazy super light spotting, I know it's not MC bleeding and I know it's not implantation (held off DTD until this process is over), so thinking it's some weird precursor to AF and my cycle trying to return! I finish my antibiotics tomorrow, and since I'm confident this isn't MC bleeding anymore, we're going to start DTD again!!! It's been a long few weeks!!! 🤪 Sorry if that's TMI!!! 🤣🙊

Sorry if I missed any chats/updates from the last post! Rather frustratingly you lose your msg if you jump between posts! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Hope everyone is doing good! TGIF tomorrow! 😍

Thanks for the new thread @M4v3r1ck, and welcome @Kayeyeem and @Yumcoffee!

@GuessHowMuch so sorry your scan results have you worried. Definitely call your doctor tomorrow, it's always better to know what's going on, and then you can make a plan of what to do next! Good luck and keep us posted x

@M4v3r1ck thanks. Getting busy doing the deed 😁

Is anyone good at balancing on their head? 😀😁
We should all try that after sex. Lol give the lil swimmers a better chance 🙈😂😂

On the other hand, i really don't fancy having a hip replacement at my very tender age 😂😂

Could you imagine how our hubbies would laugh their heads off.

Sending lots of laughter your way 😁😁😁😁❤️💜
Lets make sex fun again 💪🏾💪🏾

Welcome to the newbies! You are very welcome here.

Hope everyone else is doing ok. I’m just keeping super busy at the moment with diy, diet and exercise it’s a great distraction. Half a stone off in 3 weeks! Will keep it going I am in the zone 👌 trying to think less about ttc and more about positive things. Here’s hoping it continues 🙏

Hello everyone, welcome newbies 🙋🏼‍♀️

About a week past ovulation here, starting to spot as usual which is where my pessimism kicks in. 😞 Can't really pinpoint when I ovulated this month, I usually get back pains but missed these, though still feel as though I have ovulated.

@M4v3r1ck just healthy diet and more exercise. No booze, no sugar, low carbs... basically no pleasure in life 🤣 but I am determined!!!!

@selina37 sorry the spotting has started again. I used to spot before periods before I had my ds. I found 50mg b6 really helped have you tried that? I actually still take that dose which may be why I only spot a day or two before now.
