TTC First Baby Thread 19

@MrsEG oh wow, this sounds so exciting and promising. Of course you're frightened and overwhelmed as you had mentally blocked out the possibility so it's gonna take some time to get your head around it. I truly hope this is the sticky one for you, you have been through so much and have been a wondeful support too for so many women on here.
I hope you get the call back soon for some reassurance and advice 💜

@Larrydavid thanks, aiming to DTD tonight and hoping for the +OPK soon, currently CD14 🤞🏻

@LokiCat glad to hear you had a fun road trip ☺️ how many DPO are you?

@MrsEG hopefully she calls you soon, I can imagine exactly how you are feeling, just try and relax as much as possible and focus on some work and hopefully your day will pass nice and quickly.

Hi @purplefig how are you doing?

@purplefig Sadly not, although if she calls and asks me to go and see her for whatever reason I am out of here haha! I’ve a busy office day tomorrow too but may then try and WFH for the rest of the week. I actually love that way of working - I like to have ‘power hours’ and then reward myself with a solid 30 min break. My head is just mush!

@MrsEG totally 10000% understandable. Are you WFH? If so,
could you try the pomdoro (sp?!) technique - where you work in intense but short bursts with a break time? I find that useful when I'm spiralling.

@Larrydavid @MrsH497 @purplefig @LindyMoe @Fivebyfive2 @Lottiepink @Daisydoodles92 @LokiCat Thanks so much ladies you are all so totally lovely. I’ve called the clinic and my consultant is at the hospital today but they have sent her a message and she will call me later on today. Just trying to keep calm and know what will be will be. I cannot focus on work at all and I have so much to do!! Xx

@XjustagirlX Hi lovely, if you had spotting 2 days before AF arrived that is highly unlikely to be implantation bleeding, or a CP. To me it reads like you have just had AF early this month - TTC can mess around with your cycles sometimes. So please don’t beat yourself up at all, firstly eating a bit of cheese very early would do nothing at all, and also many many women run during pregnancy. Don’t let it upset you - just head in to your next cycle feeling positive xx

@MrsEG she won't be mad - she'll know exactly what advice to give. I really hope this is it for you! Keeping absolutely everything crossed!

@Lozzlepop keep at it! 💪🏼 I just looked back at my app from last month and we actually almost did smep apart from the last two dtd's! I had a CP so hopefully it's better luck this time.

@XjustagirlX I'm not sure - it could have been. The most important thing though is to remember that it isn't you. You didn't do anything to cause it. It's just your body doing what it needs to do.

Couldn't agree more @purplefig with the huge hugs for internet stranger I care about!

@MrsEG you give me hope with this whole MC situation you're amazing you really are xx

@MrsEG echoing what everyone else says, this could be the one that stays. But I know it's an incredibly nerve wracking anxious time for you, and we're all here for support / hand holding / a laugh...whatever you need. I'm so so sooo glad you have your new consultant. Let us know how you get on. Huge great big hugs internet stranger I care deeply about! Xxx

@MrsEG fingers crossed for you!

I’ve had the most horrendous weekend. This is my first cycle was I wasn’t really sure what to expect or how I would react. I had brown spotting on 7 and 8dpo, which I was hoping was implantation. But I think AF arrived on 9dpo. She only lasted 2 days instead of my usual 5 and there was giant clots (sorry TMI). I thought I was fine but then I completely broke down to my DH. I was inconsolable. I’m feeling a bit better now and will just try again next month.

My question to you lovely ladies is, does this sound like implantation bleeding which then didn’t stick? Is that a CP?

I keep thinking I caused it not to happen. I accidentally ate a bit of goats cheese, I ran for the tram then felt a sharp pain and I had a panic attack. So I’m blaming myself.

Sorry for the long message.

@MrsEG omg lovely!!! I know you're scared but this could be 🌈 birthday sex is always good!! Let us know how you get on xx

@MrsEG congratulations! Fingers crossed for you, such happy news!!!

@MrsEG, I didn't want to say, but did have a feeling reading through the thread the last few days... I'm sure your consultant will not be mad and she will be on hand to see you through this. And will your dh, family, friends and us! I'm keeping absolutely everything crossed this is you surprise sticky bean xxxx

@MrsEG perhaps the fact this has happened when you weren't supposed to be trying is a good omen! I really really hope so for you! Fingers crossed this one sticks for you 😊

@LokiCat looking at your graph and info I would say you ovulated on cd17 and temp spoke to confirm it next day? Is it not registering that for you?

Ohh @MrsEG I'm gonna say congratulations! So typical the month you weren't trying 🤦‍♀️ don't panic though this could work out, especially with the help of that lovely consultant of yours. I'm sure you have read yourself but some women can have multiple MC and it's just bad luck they have nothing wrong with them. Have faith, I'll be thinking of you 🌈 xx

Sorry for triple post - temp spiked again this morning (was in a rush to get to work so didn't test). I don't feel pregnant at all like I didn't last time, so no idea what's happening.

Morning all btw! Have had such a great road trip away with my friends. Definitely what I needed.
No sign of AF this weekend and BFN on IC I used yesterday morning. I've had no symptoms for whatsoever, so maybe this is an anovulatory cycle.
If I didn't ovulate this cycle does that mean AF won't show up/show up very late? Tried googling but couldn't really find any answers..
Hope you ladies have a lovely Monday! Only 3 days this week till I go away! 😊

@MrsEG I know it isn't what you were expecting, but hopefully this is your sticky bean ❤️ as others have said, you have the best consultant with you this time and I have everything crossed that this will the one for you!
Please don't beat yourself up for enjoying yourself or for not realising you're pregnant. Let us know what the consultant says xxx

@LikeTheFruit @ELW85 @Lozzlepop Thank you girls, I actually feel a bit stupid for not ever having the thought until this morning (and even then it was more of a ‘I’m certain it’s not but I’ll just check’) - my boobs are massive and sore, have had climbing temp the last 5 days. Cramps since Thursday. I guess I just really really wasn’t looking for it as I didn’t track anything and only DTD twice.
Just called DH in a flap at work (such a bad wife) but he’s managed to calm me down a bit, going to call the consultant literally at 9.01 and see what they say.
I feel so sick but I think it is with shock!

@MrsEG congratulations! I know it’s a shock but try not to be anxious your consultant will be able to tell you exactly what to do! I’ve got everything crossed for you! And as @LikeTheFruit and @ELW85 have said please don’t beat yourself up ❤️

@MrsEG - I know you’re scared, but congratulations (sorry if that’s weird to say)!! As @LikeTheFruit said, this could absolutely be the one!
Make sure you get your consultant called ASAP for peace of mind - you’re in the best hands possible with her, and I’m sure she’ll do all she can to make sure you’re supported and monitored. Xx

@MrsEG I know this is a shock for you but this could be your sticky bean! Also don't beat yourself up about it, everyone should enjoy birthday sex without guilt. I have absolutely everything crossed for you that this is the one ❤️❤️.

Morning all. I am panicking so much. BBT rose again this morning. Only had a CB digital and figure I am around 13DPO, took it truly expecting nothing as they aren’t too sensitive and got this. I am terrified and so scared. I am going to call my consultant at 9 and see what she wants me to do and hope she isn’t mad! STUPID BIRTHDAY SEX. My hands are shaking I’m just so afraid and just want to slap myself across the face.

@MrsEG fingers crossed that she arrives soon and is kind to you! Nice to have her over with before your holiday! Wow that’s a really long day, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was too tired after a day like that! Haha I like your style 😉
