Hi ladies, it's been three years and wondering how everyone is faring? We had our daughter at the end of Apr 2015 and TTC again for no. 2 which is proving much harder second time round. Hope you're all really well x

Tranquilitybaby · 23/09/2014 16:31

Sadly joining in with an early miscarriage last week too x rubbish.

Stopped bleeding yesterday so guess we can TTC again from this week. Hugs to everyone x

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 23/09/2014 09:58

Mine was very early and would have been classed as a chemical pregnancy. It was slightly worse than a normal period, but physically, I was shocked at how awful I felt. It was like having the flu! I wasn't prepared for that. I've been hammering Berocca and Spatone to try and help me get some energy back.

I'm still charting and waiting to see if I ovulate this month. I can't see why I wouldn't, so, fingers crossed.

daisysunshine2 · 22/09/2014 14:11

Sorry Biscuit :( Thats the only positive ive been able to take from my miscarriage also... at least we can conceive! I'm in the horrible limbo of waiting for a period to restart TTC... My miscarriage was over 2 weeks ago at 5 weeks pregnanct but all it consisted of was a morning of light bleeding, no cramps, no clots... so im dreading my next period but just want it to happen so I can move on! Hows everyone else doing? Seems to have been very quiet on here lately xxxx

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 20/09/2014 23:04

Sorry Daisy. x

Well, I'm back. Had a very early miscarriage, which was devastating on one hand, but also positive on the other because I know I can conceive. Just waiting for the bleeding to stop which is taking fooooooreeeeeever, then I'm back on the ttc train.

daisysunshine2 · 19/09/2014 19:02

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't been on for a while, sadly my pregnancy ended in miscarriage at 6 weeks :( now waiting for period so we can start TTC again! :( now been a year but now we've had a miscarriage they won't do any testing because we can conceive! Onwards and upwards, congrats to the BFP biscuit! :) xxxx

newbie6 · 12/09/2014 23:20

Congrats biscuits! Well AF got me also grrrr so onto cycle 6 now.....not amused Mother Nature, not amused.....that is all! Good luck everyone else xx

Tranquilitybaby · 11/09/2014 17:28

Hello can I join pretty please. 11dpo and I've turned into a testing addict. Blush

Should have then in the house, plus they're the rubbish eBay ones that probably aren't all that great anyway. Why do I do it to myself!

Congrats somesort x

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 11/09/2014 14:53

Fingers crossed for you, Happily! I've got pregnant first try before, but that pregnancy didn't work out and I had a termination because of abnormalities. It took longer to conceive my DS but I can't remember exactly how long as I was still grieving for my first. I think it's pretty amazing that I've been through chemo and had this happen so quickly, but I'm quite scared it won't work out because my first pregnancy didn't when I also got pregnant quickly. It's stupid, I know. Sad

rubyrubes13 · 11/09/2014 06:59

Currently 16dpo had a couple of bfn been bloated headaches migraines mood swings side twinges due today but nada nothing so I need to do a new thread over tww what next

HappilyMrsR · 10/09/2014 20:40

Lucky you, thats so quick. Five/six months for me and losing hope... Well done! Really pleased for you and fingers crossed it'll be me next time :-) x

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 10/09/2014 18:24

This is my first cycle of trying properly, but you could count it as my second. I only started charting again this month though.

HappilyMrsR · 09/09/2014 20:49

Congrats biscuit! How exciting! What cycle is this for you? Sadly I'm out, period four days early for some reason. sighs

fredsmum01 · 09/09/2014 15:01

I feel like a baloon so bloated

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 08/09/2014 14:22

I don't think it's my month now. I'm 9DPO today and I just have a feeling it's not happened this month. My feelings are usually right, bah.

Fingers crossed for everyone else!

rubyrubes13 · 08/09/2014 07:32

pinpan · 07/09/2014 22:59

(Waves to everybody)

Just had a big move and I'm starting a new job soon, so we've parked TTC for the time being - was just too stressful on top of everything else. Now I'm thinking a four year age gap would be just fine! Smile That lets me off the hook for a while, but I will carry on lurking and keeping fingers crossed for you all. Congrats to the new BFPs!

HappilyMrsR · 07/09/2014 20:32

Haha! Well if you're guilty of obsessing I think I am too - it's so hard not to let this takeover. My husband accused me if being obsessed a few months ago, he just doesn't get it!

I've decided I need a new 'hobby' to distract me - fitness! So I bought tons of new gym gear but ... I'm yet to actually use any of it. Oh dear. Roll on either BFP or AF.

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 07/09/2014 11:35

I do this thing where I get very involved with whatever I'm doing. Blush I'm charting my temperature and as usual, went far too much into depth about how it all works. I blame it on my (very likely) ASD. Blush

I need to chill the fuck out.

HappilyMrsR · 04/09/2014 17:52

Goodness biscuit, that sounds rather technical! Will google that now. I'm just trying not think about it, think I must be 9 dpo - no symptoms at all. Hang in there, don't test! Got everything crossed for you!

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 04/09/2014 09:23

6 dpo. Trying not to get my hopes up as I had a temperature dip on 4dpo and yesterday and today's temps look like they might be the start of a triphasic pattern. I know they're good signs, but it could be nothing.

Must. Not. Test.
