@ Babynameedie it's horrible isnt it, I'm co-organising my best friends baby shower this Saturday, I would have been nearly 17 weeks now and im absolutely dredding it but got to stay happy at the same time, she understands how hard it is for me though as she suffered with 2 herself before this one. I hope things go well for you in the coming months and then we can celebrate for you! ❤

So this is first full cycle after MC in Feb, ovulated either yesterday or today but only had chance to bd tonight (post coitial message tmi 😂) so not getting hopeful but tbh I'm just glad I've ovulated really.

Had a huge cry last night because we didn't get chance to bd, no idea why it just flooded out of me, I feel much better today if not a bit tired. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for everyone in tww and sending huge hugs to everyone going through shitty times. X

Keep seeing Instagram & Facebook updates from a friend who told us she is pregnant with twins the same week we found out I was having a MC. I hate that I can't feel joy for her..I just feel so deflated - that should be me 😥 hits me badly every time. So grateful to have this place to share my crazy head x

BabynameEdie · 02/04/2018 22:58

@weasledee haha yes I know that one! Me: 'But if I press quite hard here, it does hurt a bit' OH: 'that would hurt anyone at anytime' 😏

weasledee · 02/04/2018 22:53

I'm trying not to symptom spot, which is ridiculous so early on!!!!
Do my boobs hurt?? Well probably the amount of times I've prodded them to check if they're hurting!!??! Grin

Martydog · 02/04/2018 22:40

@weasledee I'm 2/3 dpo too, but I'm off work for Easter holidays so it will be really hard not to test especially as I have a pack of 20 internet cheapie tests. I'm trying not to wish my holidays away as well. 😇

Cakelaur · 02/04/2018 22:30

Thanks ladies I'll test in a couple days now. We'll see!

weasledee · 02/04/2018 22:07

Fingers crossed cake!!!

Daffodils86 · 02/04/2018 22:06

@Cakelaur implantation 6-12dpo so you never know 🤞🤞

BabynameEdie · 02/04/2018 22:05

@PumpkinPatch000 so glad you're out of limbo! 🤞for this cycle

@Cakelaur don't fret! It could be implantation. Every cycle / pregnancy is different! 🤞🤞for you

My hubby is actually getting a bit tired of all the bd'ing...but I've told him he can't really complain..🤣
Am worrying constantly that I've missed ov, or that it'll be an anovulatory cycle with no ovulation, or that it just won't happen again.
Urgh. So. Blinking. Obsessed. !!

Cakelaur · 02/04/2018 21:51

😭😭😭 pink on tissue tonight!! 7dpo!! Probably too early for implantation!! And way too early for AF!

PumpkinPatch000 · 02/04/2018 21:02

thanks @Sloeberrygin roll on next cycle!

Will keep my fingers crossed for you

Sloeberrygin · 02/04/2018 20:48

@TheDinosaurRoars I'm so sorry for your loss, that must have been devastating Flowers
@weasledee I have literally no clue where I am in my cycle, I'm possibly in the tww going by when I had lots of signs of ovulation. If that's right I'm about 5dpo. However I don't really know and also had ovulation signs a couple of weeks ago so I'm just working my way through my internet cheapy pg tests, one every morning, just in case 😁
@PumpkinPatch000 hooray for being out of limbo, roll on the next cycle!

Daffodils86 · 02/04/2018 20:39

@xLeanne128
Sometimes i wonder if i imagine things.
Not entirely sure where i am yet, still bit of guessing game. Opk are neg still, but not expecting a + for a day or two.
Frustrating being in a limbo.
Back in a 2ww for you i see, hope it results in a bfp and sticky bean!
I actually saw a post of yours earlier when i was browsing, about ttc buddy back in Feb, i did wonder how it had gone for you. X

@Lovewinemorethanhusband
Good luck, hope the bleeding you have experienced is due to being extra fertile!

PumpkinPatch000 · 02/04/2018 20:36

Hello ladies,

Did everyone have a good Easter?

I'm finally out of limbo as AF turned up yipppeeee!

xLeanne128 · 02/04/2018 20:09

Yes @Daffodils86 definitely!!! Never had a ovulation cramp or any other symptom ever! Defo never had sore boobs. Since mc every ovulation is painful and my nipples are so sore. Feel like I can feel every twinge it's bizarre. Last month I was convinced I was pregnant with all symptoms but nothing also more bloated constantly too. Currently 2dpo! X

Lovewinemorethanhusband · 02/04/2018 20:01

@daffodil it doesn't seem to be different other than the bleeding I've just had, I think ovualted last.momth whilst I was still bleeding from miscarriage so can't really say x

Daffodils86 · 02/04/2018 18:43

Did anybody's first ovulation after MC feel different?
I sure im in my fertile window and the side of my boobs are sore. Iv never really noticed this at this point in my cycle before.

Beck1988 · 02/04/2018 18:06

Haha 😂 Mine was more last month than it was this month, lasted most of the day last month, this month was just spotting when wiped x

Lovewinemorethanhusband · 02/04/2018 17:49

@beck1988, it was quite a lot needed.to use a sanitary towel, it seems to of stopped now so maybe need to convince the husband tonight although generally doesn't take much haha

Beck1988 · 02/04/2018 17:44

@lovewinemorethanhusband was it just a lil bit? I had this last month my first cycle since miscarriage around the same time. Just thought it was left over from miscarriage at first & left it stopped after that day. But then got spotting this month too. I think it's ovulation spotting. I read up on it & it says some ppl get it when their more fertile? ( which it says you are after miscarriage) never had it b4 miscarriage. So I'm just thinking of it as another sign to bed! X

Lovewinemorethanhusband · 02/04/2018 17:24

I'm day 12 since cycle started for 3 days I've had cervical muscas this morning I had a bleed mixed in with mucas , this is my first cycle since my MMC in February Anyone experience this at all or do I need to see the doctor ?

Patienceofatoddler · 02/04/2018 17:13

@weasledee I am pretty sure I am 3 days post Ovulation to.

These TWW are the worst Confused

Beck1988 · 02/04/2018 16:46

I really want to wait @weasledee will try my hardest! Don't want to get a negative again. Will be hard tho because I'm off work next week so will have to keep myself busy to not test! 😬

weasledee · 02/04/2018 15:40

So Leanne and beck we're going be strong and not test till AF due?!? Grin
