TTC after Pregnancy Loss Thread 20 - Fx for 2019 babies

@lilimum4 and @babynameEdie congrats on your bfp's.
Not really sure where I am I think possibly just entering tww but as first proper cycle after mc who knows. Not tracking just enjoying some fun dtd. Wish fw was for holiday next week but think that is too late. But we'll be doing plenty of dtd anyway .
@hidcat I agree with others about the highlights.

Ahhh my god so much to catch up on. I briefly flicked through at lunchtime and saw your post @BabynameEdie!!!!!!!!! I had to suppress my squeal of delight as i was surrounded by colleagues.
Ahhh but im so pleased for you, pretty clear not much of a squinter!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊

@Lilimum4 congrats too!! It cant be cyst related surely!! Early too at 8/9dpo!
Have you spoke to doctors yet?

Sorry to those that have af, always a shite moment but on to the next cycle!

@Boboelephant i think im just as nervous for you as you are. things are looking good though for you, if you have similar chart to babynameEdie?? Im not so good with charts.
A massive 🤞for when you do crack open those FRERs.

@Boboelephant I’m feeling so hopeful for you 😬 I don’t want to get your hopes up but I just have a feeling this is your month!! Fingers crossed for tomorrow (if you test) 🤞🤞

I hope everyone is enjoying this gorgeous weather!! Enjoying it while it lasts, which won’t be long I’m sure 🤣

Oops so sorry @L1zz13 I meant congrats to @Lilimum4

@SerenaOverjoyed
Yes! My last 2 pregnancies I had loads of CM! And then had BFP! So maybe it's happening for you! I didn't get BFP until I was late on AF, and had BFN using boots cheap testers at around 12dpo...so Fx its a sign for you too!

Omg so exciting guys!
Congrats @Patienceofatoddler @BabynameEdie and @L1zz13 !!!
This is amazing news
And I am wishing you all very healthy and sticky beans!!!!!
Good luck to the rest of you guys in TWW!

@HidCat yup like the others said highlights is fine! I did mine throughout my pregnancy and my nails!

Oooh ooh ooh it's so exciting, lots of wonderful news. Hoping there's more to come.

Thanks @patienceofatoddler just what i need to hear. Can relax and stop bloody analysing everything then writing any chanve of a bfp off.

@BabynameEdie I think I am hoping it'll be positive for me too because our charts were so similar but that's what scares me more. Getting hopes up and then getting a bfn. I'll prob test tomorrow. If I don't chicken out. Temp went very slightly down today- 11dpo.
@PassTheAfterEights I hear you mate!! Dangling too. Are you going to test tomorrow?
@Anyday88 and @rdm10 sorry af got you. Fingers crossed for next month!!

@DBoo I got my BFP on Sunday - In fact just done another test right now as I just don't believe it.

When I had my miscarriage I had headaches and really sore boobs.

This time nothing - No symptoms.

I actually told hubby Friday not to be hopefully as no symptoms and packed a jumbo pack of tampons for our weekend away.

@HidCat @DBoo @Cakelaur okay thank you ladies! Feeling more relaxed now, I’ll make sure there’s plenty fresh air getting in. I’m just such a worrier, I overthink everything during the TWW!! Haha 🤦‍♀️🤣

Can I re-join? I've been lurking since my last mc. I have loved seeing all the bfps sorry to those who have experienced loss recently I guess solidarity is the name of the game here?

I dunno what my body is doing. I usually have 35 day cycles and I'm on cd31. I had a very definite bfn on a frer yesterday and no boob tenderness, but today I've had LOADS of cm, which is unusal for me. I thought I'd wet myself ..is this a thing?

Haha @cakelaur that did make me laugh. Sounds like you definitely earned that bfp. Was it just the fact that you had tried everything?

Where do you get progesterone cream? I have a stash of cyclogest (progesterone) for when i get bfp.

@DBoo can't say there was much logic to mine. The first one (that ended in mc) I tested every day from 8dpo because I just counted wait. I did this every month. I got my bfp on my clear blue advanced fertility monitor. It tests for ov and then asks for pregnancy tests too. This time round I got negative on everything from 8dpo until 14dpo, I got bfp on 15dpo on frer. And then got my bfp on cbafm on 16dpo. Af was 3 days late by this point. This last time I was super convinced though! I'd done EVERYTHING! 8day DTD marathon perfectly timed. Pineapple core, progesterone cream, relaxed, slept a lot, preseed, legs in the air! You name it we did it!

@BabynameEdie and @lilimum4 massive congratulations!

Af arrived today. One day early and with no signs or symptoms. Absolutely gutted. 3rd month since mc so last shot at being extra fertile plus I had really tingly boobs which I’ve never had before so I’d stupidly convinced myself this was my month. Just need a day or two to wallow and cry then onto the next cycle 😩😢

Just a question to those who have recently got bfps (especially earlys ones) as it's been a while! Was there anything making you think you definitely were pregnanct e.g. any symptoms or did you just test on the off chance?

Im trying to rationalise not doing all the symptom spotting and kp thinking back to my last bfp where i really didnt expect it to be positive then it was. Retrospectively i had some symptoms. Crying a lot and bottled water i always drank smelt like wet dog and i could no longer drink it but it was only after bfp they made sense.

@hayleyfx from my understanding of it, it's more than your skin becomes more sensitive and can flare up where it normally wouldn't. Also it's to do with the fumes. So just make sure you're near a door and maybe ask them to keep the door open.

@hayleyfx as far as i know there is no conclusive evidence of whethee hair dye does or doesnt affect a pregnancy and 95% of people in real life will have their hair (and nails) done as normal throughout.

That being said with hls as they dont touch your scalp you will be absolutely fine anyway.

@lilimum4 definitely positive good line for so early too. Congrats!

@BabynameEdie the pregnancy I miscarried was conceived on my 30th birthday trip away so hoping for the same success this time 😂

Fingers crossed PassTheAfterEights

Thanks @HidCat

@Lilimum4 congratulations! BFPs aplenty today!

@hayleyfx as I understand it highlights are fine throughout pregnancy as they don't touch your scalp so there's no contact as such.

@Anyday88 glad you're getting back to normal. Have a fantastic holiday when it comes, you deserve it!

Thanks for all the comments, I know I need to relax more. I haven't been as stressed this cycle but maybe I need to start doing yoga or something.

Congrats @Lilimum4 and glad you got confirmation this morning @BabynameEdie
Hopefully the luck carries on this month!

Ahhhhhh @babynameedie @lilimum4 fantastic lines, so so happy for you both x hugely fx for sticky beans xx
@anyday88 glad you're at CD1 and hope June is your month!
hahaha thanks @cakelaur am seriously hoping the amazon packer didn't quite supply the full 50, so shocked. I know I POASed a lot esp over the AF late days but didn't feel like that many sticks!
@boboelephant know what you mean - my relaxed laissez faire has given way to abject terror of another bfn month! not sure I even want the FRER's to come today. Felt so strong for most of May but on the edge of a cliff today :/ hang in there sister x

Thank you @Anyday88 and urgh to period although it does mean you're officially back in the game!! And great timing with your FW and holiday matching up. My first pregnancy was conceived on holiday- there's so much more time! 😂
Hope AF goes quickly for you x

@BabynameEdie & @Lilimum4 congratulations amazing news!!!

My 1st period since the miscarriage started yesterday and is so bloody horrible!!

Feeling positive though and go on holiday a week today just in time for my fertile window so fingers crossed for June for me!!

I have my fingers well and truly crossed for everyone else who is still waiting to test 🤞🏻🤞🏻
