TTC after pregnancy loss - Thread 18: Christmas cake for Christmas babies

It's a date peaches!!

I have checked the packet! Will you test with me on Monday weasledee?

Oh Boboelephant I'm very confused! My period is due on Sat so will Mon be 6 days before missed period?

@Beck1988 hopefully they are good symptoms for you!
@peachesarenom I'll join you but it'll be an opk. I'll be checking whether I have bloomin ovulated or not! I also don't want to rain on your parade but just checking you know that when they say 6 days before they count the day after af due as 'missed' not the actual day. And count the day you test. So if you test Sun, 6 days would mean your af is due Thursday. Just don't want you to be disappointed!
Good luck to everyone in 2ww and fw!!

I’m excited for all of you who are testing, I’ll keep my fingers crossed!
My OPK is getting so close to being positive. I’m CD14 today, usually ovulate on CD16. I saw that it was getting close last night and literally jumped my SO as soon as he got home from work, I wasn’t giving him a chance to do anything 🤣

weasledee Yaaaaasssss! Thank you! I'll be 8 dpo! Frer says 6 days before your missed period so fingers crossed!

@Daffodils86 I'll keep dipping IC but guna just see if af arrives. Have the same symptoms I did when I was last pregnant it's so frustrating xx

Peaches I'll poas tomorrow with you! I'm only gonna be 9/10 DPO so pointless really but who cares!!

@xLeanne128 when are you testing?
Im really going to try not symptom spot this times and not test for 2 weeks!!

Thanks Claire138!!! POAS £5 much better value !!!

Anyone wanna poas with me on Sunday or do I have to wait for the next POAS Friday?

I'm 7/8dpo and positive I'm up duff 🙈😂 (decided I was for the last few months too which I wasn't) yay let the nuttiness continue!!! X

@HidCat isnt it just! I do feel different, like finally shook that black cloud. Bit of a breath of fresh air almost.
I just hope the next one sticks! 🤞

Oh well I can wish 🙏 😂

At this rate I'll be believing I'm pregnant every day - wish there was a categoric sign that would be obvious lol.

Amazon bundle arrived today, 40opks and 10 hpts! Let the POaS fest begin lol. According to Ovia I'm on CD 11 though no peak on the opks I've been using so far so hoping it won't be long. This will be my first ov since MC too @Daffodils86 - the final hurdle towards getting back to normal

I think mouth ulcers are associated with the luteal phase of the cycle anyway, that's what my dentist told me.....

Just googled having mouth ulcers a sign of pregnancy! And found this! I've had ulcer since yesterday. Trying to not symptom spot but everything keeps popping into my head lol. Also had headache all day yesterday an I never get them! 🤞 Anyone had ulcers b4 their bfp b4?

@Cakelaur we decided to carry on and see what happens. I figured if my body is ready then it will happen, if its not then it wont be our month.
Also its our first ov since mc, its just nice to know things are getting back normal, wont be too disappointed if AF shows up in couple of weeks, would be hugely lucky to conceive on the first try again.

@Boboelephant
Ahh thats cool, yes i took another this morning, never seen the test line so dark. Pinged up in seconds.
Looks like we will both be sliding into the TWW!!

Oops posted too early, I was trying to change page!
@Claire138 that's interesting! A question to ask next time. Are you still having it? Yep temp dip this morning so I'll see if it rises tomorrow or if it's just because we're back in the UK now. Will also keep BD'ing- I'm giving @Cakelaur a run for her money now! 🤣
@ek78 I'm glad things seem to be moving a bit for you now. Hope that you are soon on the other side.

@Daffodils86 looks like we're ovulation twins! I had another really dark positive this morning too so think I must have geared up for ovulation last week but it didn't happen.
@UnicornsandRainbows1 thanks. Yeah feels a bit of a bummer to be cd22 and not have ovulated yet. Especially when I've just got back from holiday and BD palooza. Looks like no rest yet!! How are you feeling hun? How many weeks are you now?
@Daffodil77 thanks. Yep it shows how random it is. Does make me wonder all those months where I wasn't tracking how many times we missed the peak time as had gone hard too early!
@Cakelaur haha I've completed my JYH Saturday mission! 🤣 Had to send DS downstairs and put Toy Story on to distract him! Yep seems that holidays do mess with mine too. I think my body was definitely gearing up for it but didn't happen. Another strong positive opk this morning and a temp dip so see what happens tomorrow. I think you're right and last Saturdays temp was higher as that was the first one in Tenerife and the dramatic change in outside temp.

@zarala It sounds like you have a good plan there. Here's wishing you a happy, healthy and restorative few months.
@laney79 It is so bloody hard. But we will get out of the other side, I promise!! Limbo will not last forever. xx

@boboelephant my acupuncturist actually said to me to not be surprised if my cycles are a bit longer the first few months of doing acupuncture...no idea why, I really should have asked. So it could be a combo of everything. Will be interesting to see your temps in a few days. Oh and get BDing!!
@dulwichdays that’s a great quote. Think I need to remember that when I’m having a crazy day.
@peachesarenom 😂 never thought about it like that! I try to bulk buy them in boots, they usually have them 3 for 2. So more like pee on a fiver 😂
@zarala I think it’s a good idea to give your body a rest after all you’ve been through. Not only physically but for you mentally to have some time to yourself. July will come quicker than you think!
Good luck to everyone getting positive OPKs. Mine are still negative and no temp shift, hopefully Sunday/Monday 🤞

All these positive opks. Jump your husbands ladies!!! We can have poas Friday. Jump your husband Saturday 😂

@Boboelephant Maybe Holidays mess with your ov too!! DTD and see what your temp does. I'm could be your temp was up because of the heat.

@Daffodils86 congrats on the opk. It's a tough choice whether to jump back on the wagon or wait a bit. What did you decide in the end?

@Daffodil77 Hahaha. I just read your post as you DTD at the airport whilst waiting for your flight!! 😭 I was like wow!!! Dedication haha then I re read it!!!

@dulwichdays love that quote. And I'm sorta In the same mind set. I did EVERYTHING this month, and it didn't happen. So now I'm just going to try and relax and I'm only going to temp up until my temp shift to confirm ov and I'm going to focus on me and my health and get fit for summer and play with my puppy, and hope that one day I get to hold my baby in my arms.

@zarala hopefully your body will have a nice rest for when you try again. Thanks for sharing that story. I have a friend who did ivf 4 cycles after 6 years of trying (they had one baby already) they implanted 3 eggs in the 5th cycle of ivf. All three caught, then sadly lost two of the babies had their miracle child. Then three months after he was born found out they were pregnant naturally!! So now they have a 10yr old, a 2 year old and a 1yr old.

Looks like lots of you have been away and DTD and are now in your two week wait. Next Friday is gonna be an awesome poas Friday!!

@Beck1988 I never had random bleeding after the mc, but I did have a lot of cramping for weeks after. I did however have spotting at 7 dpo this cycle.

@ek78 I really hope it gets sorted for you soon

@Boboelephant That's really scrappy if that is the case. Bloody cycles and twws are bad enough as it is

Evening everyone.
Iv had light as hell lines all week, now this happened!!
3 weeks since start of MC, Mixture of feelings oddly.

@Cakelaur sorry for bfns but you still never know until AF!🙂
But lots to look forward to still for you.

@dulwichdays I really liked the saying you wrote.

Everyone who is having a rubbish time at the moment with MCs or TTC, there were a few as caught up on past posts. Hopefully things get better soon. Xx
