Little bit of background -
Cycle #3 TTC after MC in December
This month doing SMEP, tracking BBT and OV (CB advanced and Femometer strips), also drowning myself in grapefruit juice 😂 and will take Calc Fluor in TWW.

Sending everyone lots of luck 🤞

@2020wish i'm like you I was holding the test at all different angles almost drawing a line on the test with my eyes

@Renna Speak to your doctor so at least you can get some advice and most importantly it can be documented. I was told from my gp that I would have to have another MC making 3 back to back then they will refer me for some test. Don't give up hope we will all get there

Congrats to all of you with your bfp hope it sticks

2020wish · 15/06/2020 12:59

@MichT4 we all need our down days. Let those tears out and feel ur emotions xx

VP91x · 15/06/2020 12:56

@MichT4 sometimes we just need a day of crying and feeling all the emotions so that we can re set and have a clearer mind.

I hope you never had to go and get those bloods done from her in Sept 🥰 that will be nice to go and see your other sister. Hopefully they'll put a smile on your face and distract you a bit xx

Aw I know I’m not. Just feels that way joining groups and then having to leave cause my pregnancies don’t know how to stick :( next time I know I’m gonna be so scared joining one. But fingers crossed this month I’ll get the opportunity to join one. Thank you ladies x

MichT4 · 15/06/2020 12:51

@VP91x thank you so much, I could do with a hug. Though I think if anyone actually gave me one they'd be in for a very wet shoulder. Not sure why but it's like someone turned a tap on today! Doesn't bode well for Wednesday when my sis is having her scan!
I'm trying to keep positive and will just keep going through this TWW either way. I'm sure things will become clearer. I just need to not get wrapped up in every detail.
And although it's a long way off, she has said I can go back to her in September, so let's try and make it so I never have to see her!
I'm working at the moment, but might nip out to see my other sister and my lovely nieces, they always make me smile.

Thank you ladies. You all really are lovely. And I can't wait to be talking to you about nipple shields Confused

@Eli2020 sorry if you've said already. How long have you been TTC? I'm sure there is nothing wrong with you ❤️

VP91x · 15/06/2020 12:45

@2020wish you're not a reject! Soon we will all be in a little group discussing heartburn and nipple shields 🤣 like @Hayleylou89 said 🥰

@MichT4 sending you a massive hug!! Please don't be too hard on yourself. No one's chart is perfect and charting as I said is useful in hindsight not when you're in the midst of it. Do something you enjoy today xxx

@Eli2020 hi hun x I feel the same as you , I keep telling myself maybe something wrong with me but also dont think theyd do any tests until been a year since MC ? I dont know how it works either xx 🤞🌈 neither of us need to go down that road xxx

Eli2020 · 15/06/2020 12:21

@elliew818 must have been so hard to lose the pregnancy at 12 weeks-can’t even imagine what you’ve been through. Didn’t realise you have DC-I guess it's reassuring to know you can carry a baby to term? I want to be a mam so bad it’s killing me every time I get my period 🙁I’ve decided something must be wrong with me and maybe I should call the doctor to get some tests done (not sure how it works) but worried they will say because I got pregnant once I’m not a priority for such tests and they could tell me to keep trying for a year counting from when the miscarriage was.
@Banbi sorry to hear AF is here-I actually feel better now than when I was getting all the BFNs-now there is some glimmer of hope a new cycle has begun and this could be the successful one 🙏 which is this cycle for you? Will you be doing anything different? I've just been juicing a grapefruit and that's my contribution to this cycle so far 😀 started using pre seed last cycle so will use this again and have just realised I only have few opks left and I decided to not order new ones with the hope I'll feel less stressed if I don't feel I need to pee on a stick every few hours to see if ovulation is here or not. Having said that I also have amazon prime so my intention can well change 😂

MichT4 · 15/06/2020 11:49

@1990EM how lovely that it has happened in a month where you weren’t thinking too much about tracking. So happy you got your BFP, you and all the ladies. Really hope the rest of us will be joining you soon.

It’s funny you say about the cycle you tracked temp and @elliew818 about it being stressful to you. I actually felt better doing it all, until it hasn’t given me the perfect trend and results when I wanted them, so maybe it was an underlying stress - hard to say. Like I said I’ll carry on wearing Ava because I don’t have to think about it. I just need to sync the data and not fret about what it says. Maybe the doctor is right and I may not have ovulated, it’s just so easy for her to say not to track ovulation and just wait another 3 months - it’s impossible to not think about it when a MC makes you realise how much you want it. I just keep crying today. Ridiculous given it’s just a temperature! But maybe it’s more than that, maybe it’s more stress over the past couple of weeks trying to get all the answers.
This is when I really wish I could go on holiday xxx

Hayleylou89 · 15/06/2020 11:13

@2020wish 8/9 dpo i was! ... and look ur not a reject atall and we are all her to support every single person on here through the good and bad moments cos lets face it none of us know if we will be in the same boat again (me included) and i might need that support which is one of the reasons iv staying in touch on this thread hopefully not and i can just sit and watch everyone else join my with their bfps though 🙏🌈 x

Renna · 15/06/2020 11:12

@Hayleylou89 aw bless !! Your hormones all over the place so expected! Aw well wont be too long and you'll know if it is a boy 😁 xx 🌈 xx I'm okay xx not feeling hopeful tbh 😓 I'm trying not to symptom spot but I have noticed I have more CM than usual . I'm not even checking CP /CM really but I've just noticed a bit more CM when I go loo etc . My ava saying temps gone down but femometer has temps going up ... so I'm struggling to rely on temping this month as it's all over the place when normally I can rely on it . Last time my temp only spiked down for one day prior to AF coming , it wasnt gradual . And my AF this time is due thurs /Friday so got a few days yet. I wont test before hand I'll just wait and see if she shows . I've also had some little abdo pains and very slight crampy feelings since last week , seems to have eased a bit but as it started last week it's not related to AF but could be anything 🤷‍♀️ I just really dont feel hopeful 😓 xx

2020wish · 15/06/2020 11:08

@1990EM I don’t think I’ll be joining any groups until after the first scan at least when I do get pregnant for sure: it broke my heart leaving the Facebook group with my second loss and then the private WhatsApp group with the ladies on here with the third.. don’t think I could cope with feeling like the reject again lol

2020wish · 15/06/2020 11:05

@Hayleylou89 how many dpo where u on that pic?

My second MC my frers wouldn’t show a positive at all not then a flicker even when clear blue digitals were 1-2 positive. And I took a few frer. That was the pregnancy I carried until 7 weeks. Strange. So I dunno whether I can fully trust the frer lol I’ve heard some women aren’t sensitive to pink dye tests

2020wish · 15/06/2020 11:03

Ahhhh I’m talking myself out of it now believing I have line eyes. I can’t get it to show on the camera. It’s literally just whatever way the light hits it so I’ve convinced myself I have line eyes as one min I see it then I don’t :( maybe I’m just talking myself into seeing it. Yes I’ve taken it out of the holder and held up to the light lol suppose I couldn’t have expected anything clearly showing at only 7dpo lol

@MichT4 yes I think stress and anxiety can really affect your cycles and temping for the first time after a mc heightens that

@VP91x thank you so much. I can't get over how kind everyone is in this group. Hence I'm staying put lol

1990EM · 15/06/2020 10:50

@Tink20058 your words give me hope, thank you ❤
To protect myself im not joining any pregnancy groups any time soon, will be firmly hanging out here until everyone gets their bfps and until I feel properly pregnant or have a scan or some kind of confirmation this pregnancy is real!

VP91x · 15/06/2020 10:48

@1990EM I think it is so easy to forget that your body knows what it is doing and to just listen to it.

Saying that, I'm POAS at every opportunity 😭😂

Don't stress over not having too many symptoms every pregnancy is different. So happy for you xx

@Saim86 massive congrats!!!

1990EM · 15/06/2020 10:43

@2020wish I'm desperate to see your test too!!! I'm so hopeful for you!

1990EM · 15/06/2020 10:41

Thanks ladies for your encouragement and for being so happy for me.. I only wish we all had bfps this month.. it will happen, soon! I'm still a bit worried because I have very few early pregnancy symptoms so its hard not to second guess it all. Sometimes I think I have just made it all up in my head..

Can't remember who asked but the only thing I did "differently" this cycle was to make sure we DTD on the days I had ewcm .. opks didnt pick up on a peak so it was my biggest indicator of ovulation. I read somewhere that ewcm was your bodies way of making sex easier and ideal circumstances for sperm as well as natural lubrication lol so I just took it as my body telling me that was the time to BD!! Didn't dtd much otherwise tbh! Maybe did it 3 times in total during fertile period! I too found the tracking bit sooo stressful so thought I'd just try the natural listening to my body for the first cycle. Easier said than done though because I'm the type that thrives on numbers, data and statistics!

VP91x · 15/06/2020 10:34

@Tink20058 it's still a flashy twat 🙈😂😂😂 but feeling hopeful I'm almost there xxx

VP91x · 15/06/2020 10:33

Sorry AF is definitely there for you @Banbi but, new reset for the cycle coming and a new opportunity 🥰

@elliew818 yeah weird that I got the little streak on the same day. Waiting to see my peak then will get going on the 3 day stint haha.

Yeah, at least with AF no tracking or anything you can kind of just wait it out xx
