Almost filled the last thread, so thought we'd better start another one. Ladies feel free to tag everyone in.

Hey @Mrs173 I'm really glad you managed to get a scan for today!! That's great news. I really hope all is OK? Keep us updated ❤️

Mrs173 · 31/05/2020 08:24

I’ve got a scan booked for 6:30 tonight - £50 but worth it to know. Although hubby said last early scan where we discovered MMC was the worst £50 he ever spent. Fingers crossed it might be ok. No bleeding still since yesterday at 11 but I just feel like it was quite a lot - definitely not spotting or light.

Sending love to all and @diorissimo1985 I hope your instincts are wrong. Sadly I couldn’t explain how I knew about my last MMC but my symptoms just weren’t there and I felt off. But I had no cramping and sometimes cramping is a good sign of your body adjusting so don’t worry about that part too much. I hope you are able to find out tomorrow - I hate the waiting part. It’s just so cruel.

💜

Thank you @VP91x ... calling gp first thing tomorrow and if still not luck I will just go in. Will let you know xx

VP91x · 31/05/2020 07:48

@Diorissimo1985 hey lovely, I'm sorry you still haven't had any answers. If you are able to why don't you get a private scan booked? Or ring EPU again and ask to be seen. Tell them about the pain and then yeah, probably just best to say you've had a bleed. It will be the only way to definitely find out. Please keep us updated xx

Diorissimo1985 · 31/05/2020 07:47

It doesn’t help either when I’m so sure of when I ovulated with all the tracking! Ignorance is bliss isn’t it

Diorissimo1985 · 31/05/2020 07:45

Thanks @Jazper ... I can’t explain it, I just feel off. Very similar to my miscarriage last month and not at all like I felt when I was pregnant with my daughter. I am so anxious and I know it doesn’t help.

Jazper · 31/05/2020 07:39

@Diorissimo1985
I really wouldn't go by those tests to determine how the pregnancy is progressing. I had this with my last baby. I was so concerned and I googled it to see that lots of ladies had the same problem, (in that the test read that they were not as many weeks along as they thought they should be).
My baby was born perfectly healthy at 41 weeks. Also, as a side note, I believe it's a little 'grey' as to the cut off points of the weeks indicator and whether 2-3 actually includes the whole of the third week.
I understand your concern, and a scan will help settle your mind if you can get one.

Diorissimo1985 · 31/05/2020 07:22

Morning ladies, sorry have been a bit quiet - time spent worrying and continuing to poas!!
I am in bits this morning as my cb digital still says 2-3 and I’m 24dpo today. Things clearly aren’t progressing as I definitely should be 3+ by now. Still haven’t managed to get a gp appointment but I think I might just say I’m having bleeding so I get seen. Pain is still there and I feel generally very odd.

VP91x · 30/05/2020 16:38

@Mrs173 sorry I didn't see that you had replied. Gosh, they really don't want to see anyone do they?

Maybe give them a ring anyway and see what they say? They might say to come in Monday. Or is it worth calling one of the private clinics and explaining situation they might offer you a slot? Xxx

Mrs173 · 30/05/2020 15:46

I did say to hubby that I might call back and say I am but then I feel like I might be jinxing it if I lie! 🙈 also because the bleeding has stopped I know they will probably fob me off again and if I lie and then they see I’m not bleeding anymore I will feel a fool! It’s so hard though. And I can’t see anywhere I could get a private scan done this weekend with Covid either 😩 I might call them back and say I’ve started cramping although she sad earlier “it only counts if the pain from it isn’t under control with the max dose of paracetamol” so I guess they reallllyyyyy don’t want to see anyone. Tbh they weren’t helpful with my previous Mc either :(

VP91x · 30/05/2020 15:33

@Mrs173 do you think it's worth just saying that you are cramping so that they see you?

It's so crap that they didn't at least see you right away! Xx

Mrs173 · 30/05/2020 15:29

@vp91x thanks. I called my EPU this morning when I was soaking through the Pad but they said I couldn’t get a scan because I wasn’t in pain or cramping. She said they are being a lot more strict on who they will see due to Covid but it’s not reassuring at all :( I would feel much less anxious if I knew what was happening. I am hoping the no pain is a good sign and it has stopped for 3 hours now but it wasn’t light bleeding. Oh the worries we have to go through 😩

VP91x · 30/05/2020 15:19

@Mrs173 so sorry that this is happening! Have you contacted your doctor/urgent care? Definitely get checked ASAP. I hope all turns out OK xxx❤️

Mrs173 · 30/05/2020 14:40

Got my BFP on 5th May after my MMC in Feb but had quite a lot of bleeding this morning. Not just when wiping. Soaked through a pad in half an hour but now it’s stopped for a couple of hours. Being pregnant after a MC is just so stressful and a time of anxiety. I really hope I’m not loosing this little bean too 😭.

Sending love to you all with BFP and BFN and those who AF turned up before you even got to test. What a journey it is for us all 😔

VP91x · 30/05/2020 10:28

@Re6ecc4 gosh, no belt think like that. You're not failing at all. TTC is a big emotional thing to take on, but it will happen. Sometimes it just isn't the right month. It's so so shit but please don't think you're not doing something right. ❤️

Ejb86 · 30/05/2020 09:25

@Re6ecc4 it's hard, but try not to think of it that way. Our bodies are just not ready yet, but they will be.

Morning everyone, it seems my body has failed yet again this month, just been to the bathroom and wiped blood. :(

Rainbowhope11 · 30/05/2020 06:28

Thanks @VP91x I may just take your advice 💕 just need to unwind from all of this

VP91x · 30/05/2020 06:17

@Hayleylou89 it may have been a glitch with that vfl. BFN this morning for sure!😔

@Rainbowhope11 I would say go and enjoy the wine/weekend. My temp was still good this morning 36.63 xx

Hayleylou89 · 30/05/2020 06:01

@VP91 im not being funny iv only just seen ur message and a swear i see a slight line on ur cb test!! Xx

Rainbowhope11 · 30/05/2020 05:59

Hey @VP91x aww no sorry about your Bfn this morning ☹️ I know it's so frustrating to see. Hope you're okay. How was your temp this morning?

I'm doing okay, my temp was a little bit lower this morning, but still above my cover line. I think I've given up now. But my hubby is still hopeful, he thinks I should wait to test on Monday 🤷🏻‍♀️ So I'll just humour him. I just want to drink some wine and enjoy my weekend though 🙈

VP91x · 30/05/2020 05:36

Morning👋

Hope everyone is OK?
Took another test this morning (11DPO now) BFN xx

VP91x · 29/05/2020 14:53

@Diorissimo1985 @Jazper @Tink20058 @Rainbowhope11 thank you all!! Got the tests ready for tomorrow to see what happens 🤞xx

Diorissimo1985 · 29/05/2020 14:19

@VP91x I think there’s definitely something there! Fx for you

Jazper · 29/05/2020 13:54

@VP91x
I checked first thing this morning on the June thread for your result and saw it was negative. I was gutted for you. However, there is a (albeit faint) very apparent line on that stick!!!! Xx
