Hi all!

Avocuddles, 35, TTC #1 since June 2018
1 MC at approximately 7 weeks in May 2019 after a naturally conceived pregnancy, however prior to that I had been referred for fertility treatment due to very long cycles / belief that I wasn't ovulating.

I never managed to achieve a positive opk prior to my (surprising!) pregnancy, however excitingly today, 38 days after my loss, I've seen my first ever solid smiley opk! Excited to know that ovulate even if this doesn't turn out to be my month. Off on holiday next weekend so guess I'll have to take both pregnancy tests and tampons with me.... Shock

Very early losses all around 5 weeks January 2018, April 2018 and November 2018
Diagnosed hypothyroid December 2018 and thyroid function stable for 6 months now
Seen by local RMC and by Professor Quenby in Coventry. Local RMC were awful. Professor Quenby repeated some tests and gave me some progesterone to try from 7dpo to 14dpo, continuing if BFP because she thinks my issue is implantation related.

I have my appointment for my results on Friday and am currently 10dpo so just getting used to the progesterone pessaries. Test day is Wednesday, so it's going to be a nerve wracking week! I am feeling quite positive though and trying to remain hopeful.
