Hi @Sparkl good to see you found us ☺️. How many cycles are you post miscarriage? My cycles seem to be really regular but my lp seems to have gone shorter, even if my Lh surge is short (which I'm working on the basis it is) my lp is 10days. If I don't ovulate until over 24hrs after the surge then it's 9 days 😩. Not panicking yet tho, nope 🙄.

Thinking of you both @triedandtestedteacher and @scrumdiddly123 I hope you both get answers soon.

I don't know about anyone else but seeing as we're probably (very likely seeing as things seem to be going from bad to worse with this pandemic) not trying this month, I think I'm going to indulge in a glass or two of guilt free wine this weekend 🍷. Trying to make myself feel better about this really strange situation we're all in right now.

@scrumdiddly123 @Whiffle77 aww thank you both

scrumdiddly123 · 03/04/2020 18:54

Really hope it will all be ok @triedandtestedteacher will be thinking of you x

Whiffle77 · 03/04/2020 18:46

Sending you lots of love @triedandtestedteacher xx

triedandtestedteacher · 03/04/2020 17:53

@Whiffle77 I've rang epau. They want me to have bloods tomorrow and go from there. I really feel I've had more brown discharge and blood with this than my mmc so I just can't feel hopeful

Whiffle77 · 03/04/2020 16:08

Sorry @triedandtestedteacher maybe you should give them another call and see what they suggest? Sorry you have had more spotting but it may not mean the worst.
@Ejb86 that's a very positive way to look at it!! Gets AF out the way too!
Thanks @Sparkl yes I'm doing ok! Up and down but today has been a much better day. Just counting down each day...

Ejb86 · 03/04/2020 14:58

@SunnySideUp2020 thanks for asking. I'm ok. Resigned myself to the fact that it is AF. Heavy flow and clots. The good news is that it means I get 2 attempts at a BFP in April!

triedandtestedteacher · 03/04/2020 13:39

@scrumdiddly123 I think I'm 5+2 so still very early. I tried another digi today and it came up 3+ but I'm not liking the look of those tests. Went to the loo earlier and there was quite a lot of brown watery discharge sorry for tmi

Sparkl · 03/04/2020 13:19

@Annny27 I’m CD10
So cycle buddies @SunnySideUp2020 !

Had a 23 day cycle last month, so also worried about short LP, went from 12 to 8 days, one step forward, two steps back

scrumdiddly123 · 03/04/2020 13:17

@triedandtestedteacher try not to worry too much, they’re both still very dark! How far do you think you are? Can you get an early scan?

Sparkl · 03/04/2020 13:17

Thanks @Whiffle77, I’m ok, finding each cycle harder to get over the disappointment, even though I know some people take so much longer to conceive

Really happy to see your bfp while catching up with the March thread! How are you doing?

@scrumdiddly123 this is so tough, so sorry to hear what’s happening, and must be especially hard not to be able to see family and friends for support

@triedandtestedteacher I’m a bit surprised at gp, thought some bleeding was fairly common in the early stages, sounds a bit unsympathetic. I guess they’re under pressure atm

triedandtestedteacher · 03/04/2020 12:17

@Whiffle77 he didn't say. He seemed to think I was miscarrying because of the blood so to just wait it out at home

triedandtestedteacher · 03/04/2020 12:15

@scrumdiddly123 oh no! Hopefully the consultant will get back to you soon

scrumdiddly123 · 03/04/2020 11:44

EPU have just rang, my hcg has gone up from 29 to 33 😩 so they need to discuss with the consultant what needs to happen now and then let me know. Really hope I don’t have to go back in 🙁

Whiffle77 · 03/04/2020 10:46

Much better today thanks @SunnySideUp2020 happy that it is Friday as well!
Ahhh @triedandtestedteacher dont torture yourself, I know that's easier said than done but lines can be different for so many reasons! How diluted it is, the lighting, time of day - even where you are in your pregnancy so it doesnt necessarily mean anything. Are you still having any bleeding? What is the next step with your GP?

triedandtestedteacher · 03/04/2020 10:40

It's not the lighting. I thought it might be less dye in the test but just done another and it's similar. I thought I felt slightly nauseated this morning but I'm ok now. I didn't have many symptoms other than nausea with my daughter either and that wasn't until about 8 weeks

Annny27 · 03/04/2020 10:35

@triedandtestedteacher have a google about "the hook effect" might explain why its lighter. Its only slightly lighter though! So I wouldnt be overly concerned at the moment but totally underatand your anxieties 💗

@sunnysideup2020 I ovulated super early last month and I used to get watery cm before ewcm! We havent totally decided yet...my DH is less willing to try this month so I think it will be his call - I am saying let's not try but not prevent but he said that that's basically trying haha

SunnySideUp2020 · 03/04/2020 10:18

@triedandtestedteacher i wonder if it’s not just the lighting? Today looks slightly lighter but still strong positive...
How are your pregnancy symptoms?

triedandtestedteacher · 03/04/2020 10:14

Arrgh now I've seen them next to eachother they definitely do

triedandtestedteacher · 03/04/2020 10:14

Does my test look lighter today? I think they do. First one is yesterday's with fmu and the second is today's

@Annny27 what have you decided with regards to ttc?

Cd 10 for me and been having lots of watery discharge - ver unusual. So did opk and it’s already looking like it’s gearing up :/ bit early. The app read high.

Has anyone experienced this before?

SunnySideUp2020 · 03/04/2020 10:00

@Whiffle77 hope you are Feeling better today 💐

@scrumdiddly123 and you as well, recovering from all that blood taken! But hopefully they can give you some answers soon...

@Sparkl hello:)

@Ejb86 how are you feeling today?

@Peanutbuttermummy we dont know yet if we will take the holiday it will depend on hwo situation evolve but agree with all what you all said- sometimes not speaking the same language is good !!!

Annny27 · 03/04/2020 09:36

Hi @Sparkl :D what cd are you?

@triedandtestedteacher same as me I was getting strong positives for 2 weeks after the erpc and then a faint line 40 days after my erpc (my period came right after that so my levels were below enough to ovulate obviously)

Cd5 today and AF going 🙌

OP posts:
Whiffle77 · 03/04/2020 08:23

Of course @sparkl hope you are ok

Sparkl · 02/04/2020 22:45

Hi all

Have popped back on after my usual can’t hack MN during AF and April thread has run to 17 pages already! Don’t know how I can catch up with that

Hoping it’s ok if I join you on here
