TTC after MC - June 2020 (Part 2)

Thanks for your replies. I ordered (another) FRER on amazon and it’s just arrived so will test in the morning. I’m going to need to remortgage at this rate to fund my testing habit.

@anaconda76 This is it now... no line has appeared.

@1990EM 'jealous of @Hayleylou89 spongy walls' made me howl. More so because it resonates! Give me all the spongy walls!!! 🤣

@MissyBate sure I see a thin line but can't see if it has colour to it. Does it?

@VP91x oh my god! This is a revelation. After my meltdown this weekend, me and OH have talked about whether or not my uterine lining might be struggling after the mc, and also how his age might affect motility. It's on! I've just told him. He laughed and said at least it'll taste nicer than the grapefruit juice did 😂 poor fella. I'll be slipping Vitamins in to his dinner next 🤣🤣

Oh @MichT4, I think that's why I couldn't cope with cheapies alone. I'm bad enough squinting at pregnancy tests and holding them up to the light without starting on OPK's. Yup, just slowly making us bankrupt on CB smilies 😂

@VP91x school is so weird! The children are happy to be back, i have up to 10 in my bubble but not every child is in each day. I also drew the short straw and have Reception, Y1,2 and 3 lol! But I specialised in Early Years so I’m loving “teaching” the younger ones again (my head moved me to the big end of the school for career development). The emphasis is on creating a safe and happy environment for them - all whilst they stay at their table, don’t share resources and don’t go within 2m of each other - they all seem really hally which I’m definitely chuffed about - but social distancing is a nightmare! They find that bit hard bless them xx

@MichT4 It’s nice making somewhere become your own isn’t it!! I keep wandering around woth all my pictures seeing which walls they look the best on etc, and I keep thinking “ooo I’ll have a shelf here, I need hooks here” etc etc lol xx

@MissyBate I think I can see very faint line, maybe try a first response test the pink dye tests are suppose to be clearer, fingers crossed for you xxx

@MissyBate I know they say not to read it after 10 mins but try leaving it for an hour or two to see if the line gets darker. With my 3rd DD I left one on the bathroom windowsill and two hours later it was a definite positive.

@MissyBate ooh! I'm nearly sure I see a very faint line too... Will you test in the morning??

@MichT4 😂 add that to a list of things I never thought I'd hear, good old ewcm! Ttc does things to us.. I'm just jealous of @Hayleylou89 spongy walls 😂

Hi Ladies,

Hope you’re all doing ok.

Tested again this morning (11 dpo) and I was sure I could see something but DP said not. What do you guys think?

I’m not going to order tests in advance next month...it’s driving me mad!

@Niisa I've just read your post about your cm I've just had something similar when going to the toilet there so strange! This morning it was more creamy white now this! Xx

I’m jealous of all this EWCM 😂🥚

@MichT4 thank you! I'm about 12dpo i think.. didnt get a peak ( had a few high readings though), had quite a lot of ewcm too so I'm going by that! I feel really bloated just, pretty typical for pre- AF. Have had a few stretchy feelings in my tummy but probably just my imagination unfortunately!! I feel as I only miscarried a month ago that i dont have much of a chance, but curiosity has got the better of me! I'd love it to be positive but it would be a bit of a miracle..

Ooh good luck tomorrow @1990EM. How many DPO are you? Any symptoms? xx

@Niisa praying you get that bfp soon! Will be checking on Monday morning!!

😂😂😂 @Jazper it does feel like that doesn’t it!? My apps don’t have me ovulating for another 3 days and yet here I am panicking and going through sticks like crazy. Obviously I’m hoping for an earlier ovu date and less of a wait til the glorious TWW but days of squinting and willing lines to get darker are quickly getting on my wick 😂
@VP91x saved me from adding a CB to the list of things i want to throw out a window. I think if that thing was flashing at me too I might explode

Just chipping in to say, got my grapefruit juice today and loving it!! Not even near ovulating but just thought I'd get started lol!!
Actually I'm trying a pregnancy test tomorrow eeeek! AF due this weekend or next week (super irregular periods here).
So good as always to come on here and see what you're all up to! Sorry I'm horrendous at posting regularly but having toddlers at home means i can't concentrate properly on anything until they go to bed 😆 my head is fried!
Anyone else testing this weekend? Xx

@HopeForRainbowbaby
Sorry to hear you have had to endure two miscarriages during lockdown. Heartbreaking. Good to know it isn't just me counting down the days. This group makes the journey a little more bearable, and each day a little shorter ❤️

@Chickoletta yes, it was me talking about mc during lockdown and I appreciate you sharing your experience; which sounds utterly horrific for you. As I have said, I wouldn't wish this on anybody but it does give me some comfort to know i aren't alone in my thoughts.

@MichT4 OPK number 764 😂😂😂😂 I totally get what you mean. I can't wait to get in to my fertile window but could equally do without seeing him flash at me for 5 years before ov 😝

Thank you @elliew818 for your encouragement. I feel much better today but last weekend was definitely just a 'one foot in front of the other' weekend.

In other news, I'm out shopping for Grapefruit juice again tomorrow 🤮🤮🤮 bloody hate that stuff. Love Pomegranates though @VP91x !! What does it do?!!! Pray tell!!

@Niisa way to early for cheapies but fingers crossed for your BFP this week x

@Niisa fingers crossed for Monday!❤️

@VP91x @2020wish @chloedancer897 @elliew818 just poas using one of the cheapies I had and it was negative. But I am still a whole week away from AF so definitely too soon. Will try again on Monday 💕

How is the grapefruit juice??? That was my craving with my 2nd boy I used to eat at least 5 grapefruits a day couldn’t get enough, I’m surprised I had any enamel left on my teeth 🤣🤣🤣 xx

@elliew818 I like it too! First sip is always a bit 😳 but then I must say it goes down a treat. Enjoy xx

Thanks @VP91x that makes me feel better in case I did miss it. Going to try and just go with the flow now, keep peeing on sticks and DTD and just be covered whatever the case. Can’t say we haven’t put our all into this can we!?

Also just ordered some grapefruit juice on the online shop...never tried it before but the reviews aren't good from you ladies - except @VP91x!
