@Gems7 omg what a traumatic experience you're going through. Fingers crossed it will all be okay .. weirdly I seem to be the same as you at the moment with the spotting and pulling sensations .. weird!

@Annny27 thanks hun. My wee has altered from illuminous yellow to a really dark brown so they're obv doing something 😂 finished 1 set this morning so just got 1 set for the next few days. How's you? X

Gems7 · 23/04/2020 10:32

@Annny27 I wouldn't be concerned about no symptoms, when I got my BFP last month I genuinely didn't feel pregnant at all. I had been a bit bloated and crampy the couple of days before but I'm always like that before AF anyway. Really hope this is your month.

I had bright pink spotting yesterday with a couple of tiny bits of clots or tissue or whatever, still only when I wiped and not in my underwear but nothing so far today. Have had some pulling type and dull cramps. Boobs are still sore especially at night and first thing in the morning and i felt sick last night. Strong positive pregnancy test this morning which is just like torture isn't it because I know it's not going to be there for much longer. I really don't know why I even did one. I hate being in limbo like this it's awful. Xx

Annny27 · 23/04/2020 10:18

Morning :) 8dpo no symptoms, nothing haha

@Gems7 any further bleeding?

@Missgoldilocks do you have any symptoms?

@PrettyTulip hope the antibiotics are working :)

@laur89 have you had your scan?

Annny27 · 22/04/2020 08:33

@Gems7 that was exactly the same for us, my DH was adamant that everything would be okay at the next scan but I knew in my heart that it wasn't.

Exactly, it's cruel, I didn't drink a drop, I am healthy weight, I ate right and it still happened. Its totally out of our control 💗

Gems7 · 22/04/2020 07:35

@Annny27 Thankyou, I'm a bit anxious about what it's going to be like. This TTC mullarkey is really hard 😞 just keep asking myself "why me" but I know inside there's nothing I could have done to prevent it, I took the vitamins, I ate really healthy, I exercised. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Think my OH is holding on to that glimmer of hope for Tuesday but I know in my heart he's going to feel next week how I feel now.
So glad I have you girls though xx

Annny27 · 21/04/2020 21:41

@gems7 it was like intense period cramps and at one point before passing the sac it was quite painful for about 30min (I ended up throwing up in that half hour) but other than that it was pretty manageable with ibuprofen xx

Gems7 · 21/04/2020 21:13

@Annny27 Thankyou so much, I have got some of those, might need to get some more though.. it's difficult to know how many you will need isn't it whilst at the same time praying you don't need them at all. Is the pain really bad? Xxx

Annny27 · 21/04/2020 20:25

So sorry that you haven't had good news @Gems7 💗 when I had my missed miscarriage the week in between the first scan and the second was the worst as I still had a slight glimmer of hope obviously:(

I hope that it is a positive outcome for you!! Will be keeping everything crossed for you xxx

Definitely get painkillers at the ready and a load of big night time pads. I couldn't believe how many I went through honestly like 5 packs of night pads!

Gems7 · 21/04/2020 19:52

@Missgoldilocks Thank-You hun 😘 it's definitely a roller coaster! Why can't we be one of those girls who has it all eh? Not fair!
I'm just going to lie on my fat lockdown arse all week and take it easy and hope for a miracle on Tuesday!
I'll be hoping for you girls too xx

Missgoldilocks · 21/04/2020 18:39

@Gems7 oh hun I am so so sorry to hear this 😢😩 honestly as if Ttc isn't hard enough but to then have this happen once you're over the moon about concieving is just a mind fuck hugs I really hope a heart beat appears!! But understand why you would be so devastated and quite frankly stressed out. Please try and take it easy, easier said than done but it may help the little bean as much as possible 🙏🙏❤️❤️ keep us updated and definitely eat all the chocolate and wear comfy pyjamas with nice hot baths 🍫🤗
Yes I'm in the 2ww now I'm about 2 dpo... Fingers crossed but not holding out hope xxx

Gems7 · 21/04/2020 18:08

Hi girls
@Missgoldilocks sorry you have been arguing with OH about TTC.. that's really shit! How stressful is it though.. I completely understand and can relate to every emotion you're going through. Are you in the TWW now then? 🤞🏻

My update isn't all that positive really. Still spotting, still very light, I am 6+2or3 today and had my scan at the hospital. There was no heartbeat. 😞 I have another scan next Tuesday, if there's still no heartbeat then the doctor will discuss the miscarriage options with me. I could also miscarry naturally before then so I am off work for the next 7 days and bought sanitary products, painkillers and chocolate on my way home from the hospital. Of course there's a chance there will be a heartbeat next Tuesday but I am very skeptical as the lady who scanned me today said she was surprised not to see one today. There was a small patch of bleeding next to the sac that's obviously what I'm experiencing. The nurse told me that could be implantation bleeding or equally it could be my body preparing to miscarry. So still no definite answers, I am drained and devastated,but I'll keep you posted

Really hope all you girls are doing okay xx

Annny27 · 20/04/2020 12:44

@PrettyTulip sometimes infections like that take two doses to go away! I had thrush recently twice in 2 months (having never had it before!!) And it took two doses of the medicines to go away.

@Missgoldilocks oh we will be testing at similar times then!!!

PrettyTulip · 20/04/2020 12:36

@Missgoldilocks yeah I took the full dose but they've gave me a higher dose this time... & no I don't use anything down there just water x

Missgoldilocks · 20/04/2020 11:28

@PrettyTulip hmm why wouldn't it have cleared up if you took the full medication every day?? Are you using some type of soap? You should. Only wash downstairs with water or aqueous cream xx

PrettyTulip · 20/04/2020 11:16

@Annny27 @Missgoldilocks just had the results.
I've got a water infection AND bv (I'm guessing it never cleared up?) xx

Missgoldilocks · 20/04/2020 10:03

@PrettyTulip oh super annoying they can be so painful!! I hope you feel better soon xx

@anny27 I'm right behind you my period is due on 3rd May which is my BIRTHDAY 😩😩😩 if af comes it will ruin my whole day urgh so fingers 🤞.

Hope we all get our bfps soon

Annny27 · 20/04/2020 09:54

Oh good! @PrettyTulip yeah I have had to do one myself before it felt very weird haha! Hopefully they get it sorted 🤞🤞

PrettyTulip · 20/04/2020 09:31

@Annny27 yeah I've done my swab (had to do it myself 😂) and urine test so just awaiting the results xx

Annny27 · 20/04/2020 09:16

forgot to tag you above @PrettyTulip

Annny27 · 20/04/2020 09:16

Morning:) I am in the tww now, period on the 30th April so gonna try not be crazy this month🤣

@Gems7 how are you doing? Have things eased up more?

@Missgoldilocks ttc is stressful, my DH gets especially annoyed when I say "we have to do it tonight" and stuff like that haha

Sounds like a UTI or a bladder infection. Deffo call the GP

PrettyTulip · 20/04/2020 08:31

Hey ladies.

@Gems7 sorry to hear you've been spotting. Hopefully now it's turned brown and minimal you'll go on to have a lovely and healthy pregnancy 🤰 💕

@Missgoldilocks sorry to hear about your argument. There's been many a times when my DH has looked at me in a certain way (that I think he is gonna file for divorce 😂) on this situation, especially when hormones do not help at all! Fingers crossed all is okay for you both now and that you can continue trying without being too hard on your relationship 💐

@Anny27 hope you're okay xx

I think I've got another infection (either that or my original BV didn't clear up fully) as I've got spotting, sometimes painful to pee, cloudy pee & sometimes smelly pee lol. I didn't have 1 symptom before - how strange xx

Missgoldilocks · 19/04/2020 14:10

Hey girls how is everyone??
I got my solid smiley today, dtd Thursday night, Saturday morning and this morning. Will dtd again tonight and tomorrow night so fingers crossed we get somewhere. My cervix only rose this morning so hopefully it's the right timing. Me and OH had a big argument a few nights ago about it all so I'm trying to relax a little otherwise its just not very healthy for us. He wanted a break while I cant... So I just hope to god we get a bfp soon 😩 xx

Missgoldilocks · 16/04/2020 20:58

@Gems7 I'm so so glad to hear that!! Yayyyy❤️❤️👌👌 enjoy the sunshine and definitely rest! I'm not doing anything different except for taking dong quai which helps blood flow to the uterus and also 3000mg of primrose oil instead of 2000. Me and OH had an argument last night he really wants a break from trying it's really getting between us and basically he doesn't want to hear me upset every month 🙄😩 sooo I had to say I wouldn't talk aboit it anymore... You girls may see me on here more ranting the crazy because of this.. We haven't dtd yet I'm cd12 had a tiny bit of ewcm but nothing since this kroming so might not do it again and maybe start tomorrow. But going to try and be relaxed as I can 🤔😕😕😕😕😕

@anny27 how are you feeling xx

Gems7 · 16/04/2020 16:52

Thanks girls, it's really died down today I've only noticed it once so far (touch wood) and it was the lightest brown you can imagine, barely there mixed in with creamy CM... keeping my fingers crossed that it's over and praying it was nothing serious!! Had another strong positive this morning. I haven't been to work all week and have just been resting. Today is the first day I've been out of bed and ventured outside in the garden so hopefully it's done the trick. I've plonked myself on a lounger all afternoon it's been fab! But Honestly the worrying never stops.. nightmare! Thinking about booking an early scan privately.. Thankyou for your support
Can't wait for you girls to get your BFP's, are either of you doing anything differently this cycle? Xx

Annny27 · 16/04/2020 08:09

@gems7 just take it easy and try and relax which i know is so tricky when you are concerned:( light apotting is super common but still obviously anxiety inducing. You must be nearly 6 weeks now?

@Missgoldilocks yay for approaching fertile week!

@PrettyTulip how are you doing?

I am 1dpo now so tww 🙈
