Yes every cloud and all that!

Well I'm glad you can draw a line under it now and move on with TTC again Smile

Frantasic · 18/04/2016 12:46

I'm surprisingly OK... I had a gut feeling something wasn't right. I just didn't have the 'pregnant' feeling. It was driving my mad that I had a ton of symptoms but knew something was wrong. Ha, at least I know I'm not menapausal just yet! It's a relief to finally have and answer.

FrazzleRock · 18/04/2016 12:36

Oh fran Sad. How do you feel about it? Relieved? Or disappointed? Both I imagine Flowers

Frantasic · 18/04/2016 12:29

So I'm out... Got a call from the hospital and the Beta HCG was BFN, however, my Progesterone was raised which totally explains continued my pg symptoms. I don't know why HCG was showing up in my urine but if I was PG, I'm not now. And breathe!

haha, love if I start on the chocolate and I'm not pregnant, I won't have an excuse for the added lbs. I'm still carrying added lbs from my MC Angry. But chocolate does sound like a lovely idea...

rocket hi there. I'm so sorry about your MMC, I also had a MMC in Feb. It's the worst feeling in the world. Not helped by still receiving letters of appointments and information regarding pregnancy and birth Angry I've just called the maternity department to give them hell, as I received my fourth letter on Friday despite telling them to remove me from their system.
Still, I'm pleased to hear you're back on the horse (so to speak), and oodles of luck, I hope it happens quickly for you.

rocket8t4 · 18/04/2016 11:34

Hi. I'm going to try and hold off until the weekend... if I can! It is so hard trying to relax.

lovewatchingrainfall · 18/04/2016 11:20

Welcome rocket Sorry to hear about your MC. They are awful. Fingers crossed for you. Are you going to test before your Af or wait for it to hopefully not arrive.

Luv Hope you managed to sleep.

Frazzle That's good in a way about the metal taste I had that for about 1.5weeks before I took a test. It's a foul taste the only things that rid it was chocolate.

rocket8t4 · 18/04/2016 10:59

I'm new to this but feeling totally desperate, this waiting is awful! I had a mmc in February, mc the night before my 12 week scan, totally gutted. Now I'm waiting, period due this week, I'm sweating, feel like my blood is coursing through my veins and my heart is pumping like mad, I can't help hoping this is all good, but don't want to set myself up for a fall. Ugh it is stressful!! Good luck to everyone here.

FrazzleRock · 18/04/2016 10:55

Oh and I've just realised that water also tastes like metal. I was wondering if it was the previous Evian bottle I was using which was a few days old. I bought a fresh one this morning and still METAL. I'm so sick of it!

FrazzleRock · 18/04/2016 10:53

OMG Fran Best of luck my dear. Come on minifran! I am rooting for you!

Frantasic · 18/04/2016 10:33

Hi guys... Just got back from the EPU and the bloods have been taken!!! The nurse is calling me this afternoon with the results... I was very surprised when she told that even at this stage women often get super faint BFPs. She thinks it's still possible it's a viable pregnancy. Well ladies, we'll know in a few hours. Confused

FrazzleRock · 18/04/2016 10:22

I've no idea when I'm due on as my cycles are so bloody erratic the last 6 months. If you'd asked me a year ago, I'd have said it's due in about 100 days or so. Now, I could be due today, last week, in two weeks time. Who knows! I have PCOS and it seems to gone into hyperdrive the last 6 months. I was checked over by my gynae last October and he said it's just PCOS doing something different, though I did have a fairly large cyst on one of my ovaries.
Ovia app says test in 2 days when I'll be approximately 13 days DPO. But only CD 23. It's so confusing!

My mouth is driving me crazy, metal mouth has been constant for a week now, plus really watery, (despite a dry tongue) I'm almost drooling. I swished some Corsidol this morning in the hope the taste would go but that taste was so bad and lingered for ages, now I have metal mouth again. I don't think it's a gum problem as my teeth never bleed when brushing. Plus I made peas for the DC last night and they smelt really off, DP smelt them and said they were fine and actually smelt and tasted lovely.

If I'm not pregnant, then I'm stumped.

Love that sounds stressful, but I would tell him. I've got such a blbber mouth I'd have told the world by now! But then the world nows about our MC and also that we're trying again so I don't think it'd be a big surprise to anyone, unlike last time.

luv My DP uses the pull out system when he gets cold feet about trying again. Very strange you're getting so many obvious symptoms and still no BFP. Maybe you're a medical mystery like me ;) Depressing not to get that BFP when you feel so pregnant and your body is telling you you are. I'm not sure what to suggest. I don't know if you've said before or if anyone's asked, but you don't have PCOS too do you?

Luvbeinmum · 18/04/2016 08:13

Hey love. Took a test on sat was BFN. Tomorrow morning will be CD40. Lots of cm Boobs still hurt light cramps off and on almost every night for two weeks now. Was laying in bed reading when you messaged and tummy feels weird. Tight kinda on the left side by ovaries. Not sure what's going on. Haven't told hubby I'm late as like yours he's a worrier and I just don't want to fight with him over the unknown. My gut feeling he won't be happy as not really planned but like others have said he knew that pullout is only so effective and well it was a bad pull out on his part. I just wish for some answer.

Love take a deep breath things will work out the way they should. Tell your hubby Hun. He will be ok. (I know I should tell mine too...). I get it.

Anyways going to try to sleep. Hugs

lovewatchingrainfall · 18/04/2016 07:35

Good morning all. Sorry not replied sooner, was at the MIL all weekend. Welcome newbies hope all is going okay.

Good luck today Fran let us know how you get on.

Any News yet Luv how are you doing?

How are you doing Charlotte and little?

I would ban Google Frazzle there is so many mixed messages on there. Let us know how you get on. Maybe try again in a few days and see what happens.

Well not much news from me, still getting a lot of cramps so not really sure what is going on. Have known nearly a whole week now and still not told my DH. I know that this is not normal, Its his birthday tomorrow so plan on telling him then especially as he is talking about going away for Christmas. I know i maybe should have told him sooner but he is so stressed with work and his grandma is not well that i did not want to add to the stress (he is a big worrier) so the cramps would worry him and stress him out.
Plus with the previous MC i am just trying to shield him from more hurt. I do not feel i can get to attached at the moment just in case.

Wishing you all a happy Monday.

Ow God lol Google is not good sometimes even though I use it daily. Try again in a few days when you due on?

FrazzleRock · 17/04/2016 21:54

It's an ovulation test stick.
Yeah I've just got to be patient. I'd just assume with all these strong symptoms, I'd get a + test early. I tested + mega early with my MC

I'm still convinced I'm totally imagining things.
DP googled metal taste with dry mouth and now he thinks I've got a cerebral fluid leak or something. Bloody Google!

charlotte1990 · 17/04/2016 20:16

Can I ask what is opk?

Aww good luck Fran!
With my last pregnancy I found out with a faint test 2 days before I was due on... try and hold out. I know how hard it is x

FrazzleRock · 17/04/2016 16:35

Hi all!

My body is being an absolute bellend.

Roughly 10DPO I caved this morning and tested 3 days early. Negative!
I then grabbed an OPK. Positive Hmm

So I'm wondering if I even ovulated at all and the OPK was a false +.
Means all of these symptoms I'm having are either completely made up, or there is something medically wrong wirt me.

I fucking hate PCOS. Im sure that's to blame.

Frantasic · 17/04/2016 11:25

Thanks little. Smile

LittleHeart2014 · 17/04/2016 10:26

Good luck at EPU Fran x

Frantasic · 17/04/2016 09:19

Morning Charlotte and little.

I was going to get one yesterday but I thought it seemed like a waste of money as I'm going to EPU tomorrow morning for a blood test. I only tested to see if there was line progression. X

LittleHeart2014 · 17/04/2016 07:58

Agree with trying the digitals Fran. I got my first clear line today. Ran out of digitals but they've been picking it up for over a week.

Symptoms sound promising x

charlotte1990 · 17/04/2016 07:36

Fran have you tried the digital one? Clearblue they are good.
