@CookieWaffle all I would say is, my midwives I spoke to and my doctors were amazing... so it does help to have them on hand. Keep positive darling. Accepting something you've wanted for so long is very hard but it'll get real soon ❤️

Thanks ladies, tmi but I had a pink wipe this morn then little brown wipes through the day, nothing heavy and pretty much sounds like implantation on most websites I read. Will see how it is tomorrow. I'm still feeling like a human, half asleep, hot water bottle and as I just got home, now with added nausea.

I'm still feeling so unaccepting of this whole thing. I'm carrying around my mooncup like the floodgates are going to open and AF turns up with a big HI THERE. I've picked up the midwife form but so not ready to fill it in yet. I'm even considering buying some more tests... Hmm This is almost as bad as the tww...

@ChaosMoon thank you Hun!! I'll give it a look!! ❤️ I'll let you know xx

You really have @Delilah7. Have you come across Tommy's? I've been obsessing over their site because they do Excellent pregnancy information. It's got Information Standard, which means it's guaranteed to be accurate and actually based science. Which is actually quite rare when it comes to pregnancy information. But it's actually a research charity looking at mc, ep and premature births. They have midwives you can talk to on the phone and lots of helpful information. It may be worth checking them out.

That's a good move if you can @CrystalBlaze. And not long now. Crossing everything for you!

CrystalBlaze · 15/08/2018 18:21

@Chaos that's good to hear. Puking is one of my biggest fears about being pregnant so hopefully I'll be able to avoid it.

It's two days till AF is due according to Flo. But I suspect it might be slightly longer. Going to try and hold off testing till at least Friday.

Delilah7 · 15/08/2018 18:14

@ChaosMoon I just need to not get my hopes up this month... I've been through a lot these last two weeks. How're you??

OP posts:
ChaosMoon · 15/08/2018 18:04

@Delilah7 Yes. I think you're in with a chance. But if it doesn't happen this month, it just means you're body has longer to settle into its rhythm so you can be ready for your baby when it happens. That's no bad thing.

Good lord @BambiOnIce80, don't look I'm urban dictionary. It's probably something filthy! 😂

@CookieWaffle play the system. It's almost certainly nothing but it's still worth checking out. If you tell your GP you're worried, they'll send you for a scan. And then you won't be waiting 10 weeks to talk to someone.

@CrystalBlaze I'm good thanks. Nauseous, but not actually being sick, so I can't complain. I just need to find a way to concentrate at work now. How long until AF is due for you?

CookieWaffle · 15/08/2018 12:12

Thanks :) I will see how it goes, I've not registered yet with a midwife, haven't been able to pick up the form yet and I'd have to wait til tomorrow to get to speak to a doc. No strong pains or anything just a dodgy tummy. They do anything to stop you getting help from the docs here...

Delilah7 · 15/08/2018 12:02

@CrystalBlaze @CookieWaffle as @CrystalBlaze said call your GP or the midwife number. That's what I did and they were very helpful honey xx

OP posts:
CrystalBlaze · 15/08/2018 11:56

Fine thanks @Cookie, just impatient to get to the end of TWW. As @Delilah7 says try not to worry, its very common. Can you maybe call your GP for a bit of reassurance?

Delilah7 · 15/08/2018 11:52

@CookieWaffle try not to panic darling. Can be normal ❤️

OP posts:
CookieWaffle · 15/08/2018 11:45

Hey @CrystalBlaze I'm doing OK, just hot and tired and trying to find focus at work is proving tricky. Had a bit of blood this morning so internally freaking out a little. How are you?

Delilah7 · 15/08/2018 10:47

@BabySquid thank you ❤️

@Delilah7 my hubs was talking to his bestie about ours this month, and she told him that with pretty much all 5 of her pregnancies she MC one month and fell on the next. It's just that if one group of cells isn't compatible then your body rejects it. I guess the cells then change to be compatible. The body is amazing so don't worry about it.

Delilah7 · 15/08/2018 10:40

@BambiOnIce80 I'm trying to stay positive. It's defo hard after a miscarriage but I guess in another way I'm more relaxed too... xx

OP posts:
BambiOnIce80 · 15/08/2018 10:39

@Delilah7 you've given it your best shot. Try not to over think it and if it happens this time then amazing 🎉💐❤️ If it doesn't, then your body maybe needed a little more time and you'll have an excellent chance in the next cycle 🤞🍀 I know it's really difficult to not worry about it, but try and relax.x

Delilah7 · 15/08/2018 10:20

@BambiOnIce80 2WW buddies 😍 I'm just concerned I ovulated earlier and then missed it as since my miscarriage I've DTD 3 times in my fertile window according to flo app. 😔

OP posts:
BambiOnIce80 · 15/08/2018 10:18

Thanks @BabySquid and @CrystalBlaze 💖 Keeping everything crossed for all of us 🤞I keep trying to figure out why the lines of the test in my dream were indigo and not pink 🤔 It's a mystery how the mind works!

Big buffs right back at you @ChaosMoon 😂 And there was me thinking that I wasn't down with kids and 'buffs' was a thing now 😄 You almost had me reaching for the urban dictionary 🤣

@Delilah7 if you're 1dpo and DTD on Sunday, then that'd be 2 days pre-ovulation and seems to me that you should be in with a chance this cycle. I'm 3dpo today, so we can be TWW buddies this cycle 😁

CrystalBlaze · 15/08/2018 09:10

Haha big buffs to you too @Chaos! Wink

How are you feeling and how are you @Cookie?

Fingers crossed your trials will be fruitful @Rancho!

I also had a bfp dream @Bambi! Hopefully a good sign for us both Grin

Delilah7 · 15/08/2018 08:58

@ChaosMoon hi darling, don't fret I'm always watching 😍 I'm feeling ok. I guess seeing BFPs is hard in a way but in another way it's really not, I just have to think maybe something was wrong with my poppy seed. I wondered what you thought, I was apparently in my fertile week according to flo if I put my miscarriage as my period. So I DTD Friday, Sunday and yesterday which was ovulation day. So I'm 1DPO, think I'm in with a chance?? How're you feeling?

OP posts:
ChaosMoon · 15/08/2018 08:57

😂 I'm utterly falling this morning. That should have been big hugs, not big buffs!

ChaosMoon · 15/08/2018 08:56

Ooh look. It posted without telling me...

ChaosMoon · 15/08/2018 08:56

Damnit. 1 hour to catch up on this thread, 10 minutes to write a reply, and then an open Wi-Fi spot hijacked my phone and made the page reload so I lost everything!

In summary:
Belated congratulations @Glitzy07!
@Delilah7 and @BabySquid, big buffs.
@RobynC19 congrats on your wedding.
Welcome new ladies.
Baby dust to everyone.
And sorry if I missed you off...

ChaosMoon · 15/08/2018 08:46

Well it's just taken mange an hour to catch up quite this thread. I'll say by saying belated congratulations @Glitzy07!

How are you feeling now @Delilah7? I'm so sorry you've been so down. This thread has me in stitches though. If ever you're not posting, I hope you're still reading so we can hopefully still put a smile on your face.

I'm so sorry to hear about your cp @BabySquid. I hope you're getting lots of support at home.

@RobynC19 congrats on your wedding! I hope you had a fabulous time.

Welcome new ladies and baby dust to everyone in the 2ww!

BabySquid · 15/08/2018 07:57

@BambiOnIce80 my subconscious mind was playing on me last month... I had a dream we had a baby girl.
Also DH had a dream that I was pregnant and we found out that it was a girl!
Keeping everything crossed for you.
