Congratulations gg321! I didn't realise you could go straight to the midwives, assumed had to go to gp and be referred!

AF arrived today... 12 days late!! But according to my app I'm still in with a shot during May! Fingers crossed for a quick AF!

Congratulations gg321 great news 😀

Hope you've all had a nice weekend wherever you are.

I'm 19 days post miscarriage and I've had some brown discharge today. It's probably old blood but I can't wait to get back to normal. At least I don't "feel" pregnant anymore which is a relief.

*back of MIND

indecisivedoctor · 08/05/2016 17:29

Sorry Jess, know that feeling too well. Have to get AF out of the way and look forwards to getting back on it this month.

I remain in limbo. Feel so wierd, like oddly optimistic and also back of my mine worried it'll just come along 4-5 days late and it'll have been a cruel joke. It's almost like the longer I don't test, the longer it remains a possibility.

Blueandpinklove · 08/05/2016 13:44

Sorry Jess that this is a no go month and about your sinus infection - never fun.

Congrats to GG - exciting times. For my second I called the Midwives as soon as I found out just to get my appointment booked - but i didn't find out till just over 6 weeks. Totally up to you when you want to contact them.

I've got 2 days till AF is due ... so far I've held off testing as I'm away from home but not sure how much willpower I have left. I just want to know one way or the other way. Ah the joys! Might as well enjoy today and see what tomorrow brings!

gg321 · 08/05/2016 12:48

Aw thankyou yes I'm am very happy, think I'm just about 4 weeks. I hope for some more Bfps from some of you too. So do I ring the doctor or direct to the midwife I saw during my first pregnancy. I'm tempted just to ring her directly, and do I do that soon or leave it a bit as I know they don't want to see u until about 8 weeks anyway

JessJR23 · 08/05/2016 10:28

Amazing news gg, so happy for you!! You must be thrilled! I came in during the night, so am out of the running for this month (again). Trying hard not to be disappointed and don't feel quite as bad as last few months as it isn't such a shock now. But am laid up with a horrible sinus infection atm so feeling pretty sorry for myself all things considered! Ah well. Hoping there are a few more positives to come from this thread soon x

KentCat · 08/05/2016 08:50

Congratulations @gg321 that's amazing news. Let's hope you're not the only one this month.

indecisivedoctor · 08/05/2016 00:26

Congrats Gg321 - fab news! Hopefully a lucky thread...

Jess - how are you doing? Did you make it through the day without an unwelcome visitor?

Nil here still. Told DH I'm a few days late and he basically told me not to get my hopes up...! Think will see what tomorrow brings and then consider testing..

Sorry can't remember who asked but don't really feel any different. Perhaps sore boobs a few times and quite tearful which is not like me at all..

findingmyfeet12 · 07/05/2016 23:25

Congratulations gg321

It feels like you're wishing your life away sometimes. Waiting for af, then waiting for ovulation etc.

Poppydm · 07/05/2016 23:20

I know it's hard :-( Trying not to put pressure on yourself is definitely the best thing to do albeit hard too. Just do nice things to look forward to and enjoy your time with your OH and hopefully things will happen for you very soon X

Novinosincebambino · 07/05/2016 23:15

Thank you poppydm trying to stay calm and and not put any pressure on myself. Friend telling me she was pregnant the other day felt like a gut punch even though I'm so happy for her. Just hope it works out X

Poppydm · 07/05/2016 23:14

Congratulations gg321 Grin How many weeks are you? X

gg321 · 07/05/2016 23:10

I got my Bfp this morning!!

Poppydm · 07/05/2016 23:09

Really hope you get your BFP soon novinosincebambino 😊 X

Novinosincebambino · 07/05/2016 23:07

Thanks indecisive. wishing everyone the best of luck. My biggest sign I was pregnant was the sense of smell. I was like a bloodhound!

Poppydm · 07/05/2016 22:56

Hi indecisive Doctor Smile thanks for your reply. Im really not sure when to test. I've not had a 'real' period, the last thing was my withdrawal. Fingers crossed for you! When do you think you'll be able to get s test? Are you feeling any different? X

findingmyfeet12 · 07/05/2016 22:55

I started feeling really bad when af was about 3/4 days late. That's when I tested. I hadn't expected it because my iui had been cancelled so it was the last thing on my mind.

I also had terrible wind Blush and heartburn too.

indecisivedoctor · 07/05/2016 22:44

... And finding ( must read recent posts properly before adding mine!)

indecisivedoctor · 07/05/2016 22:43

Ps- hi novino.. Welcome X

indecisivedoctor · 07/05/2016 22:42

Agree Poppy I can't think of a reason that you'd get symptoms from stopping the pill so it's a definite possibility but as we know in this game it's all a bit of guesswork! You have immense willpower to wait a week to test!!

I am still AF less- was due Weds/Thurs. Every single time I've been to pee today has felt like an emotional rollercoaster- trying to prepare myself for bad news and then really excite at the absence of anything! Arghh! Haven't even told DH yet, and we are away with my parents so sloping off to buy a PT would be tricky!

Poppydm · 07/05/2016 22:39

Hi findingmyfeet Smile How early in your pregnancy did you feel like that? So sorry to hear of your mc. It's difficult not knowing anything about where you are in your cycle. Sending you lots of luck and baby dust X

findingmyfeet12 · 07/05/2016 22:19

Poppy I'm not sure about the symptoms of coming off the pill. The symptoms you describe are exactly how I felt when I got pregnant. I felt generally unwell and as though I was coming down with the flu. The pulling sensations were quite sharp for me and the back pain was pretty bad.

Good luck!

Poppydm · 07/05/2016 21:48

I think I'll wait another week or so and then do a test if everything is the same. It's a strange sensation. At first it felt kind of like you'd expect muscles to feel after excercise. Now just feels so bloated, heavy and full. I can't bare anything too tight pressing against me. I also have this cramping in my lower back and clear runny cm (sorry for the tmi Blush) I keep thinking surely not. Do you think leaving it another week would be enough time to get an accurate result on a PT given that I've no idea about my cycle? Thank you for replying. Hi to all of you other ladies Smile Hope you all get your BFP soon xx
