TTC after MC - June 2020 (Part 3)

@2020wish I'm due Sunday so not testing again until then (unless AF appears of course).

Fingers crossed the CM is a good sign and not a sign of AF!

Can I just say a big thank you to every one of you girls? You have been an ear to bend, a shoulder to cry on, have offered so much advice and reassurance. I think this month would have been unbearable without you all. I'm crying now so I'll finish there but I mean every word. You all deserve to be mothers because you will make the most amazing mothers in the world ❤️❤️

@chloedancer897 @Niisa also got yellow/clear cm just before she got her BFP this month! Fingers crossed

This week I have started listening to 528hz music... it’s been connected to repairing dna and health. So when I’m in the house cleaning I put it on and last night I put it on in the bedroom while we slept and me and Dh had an amazing nights sleep lol it’s like a mediation. You girls should look it up. You can get a video on YouTube if u type 529hz music and it’s the healing one

@Renna i feel the exact same. I know when I ovulate and probs better just going by my natural tell tale signs. I’ve put on so slouch weight and so unhappy with it but keep holding off incase I’m pregnant so I’ve been considering just focusing on weight loss and then hopefully pregnancy will follow suit the healthier I am.

@chloedancer897 it’s so stressful. Ok I might do the one frer today then call it a day until Sunday. Af due Monday. When are you due ?

@Renna I definitely believe in the assume you're not until you are. Otherwise we wouldn't do anything! It's so important I can keep training and doing the things I enjoy, and like you said - if we were naive we wouldn't be doing anything differently.
Jury's out with OPKs for me at the moment. They have driven me mad but I think I might have been missing ovu by going by apps. I wouldn't have known that if I didn't OPK. But I definitely think if you know your ovu trend, I wouldn't bother. Less to stress over, if you are inclined to do so!

@2020wish the acupuncture was good . Really you need to keep going but I only did one session just before lockdown happened and was straight after MC so didnt have a set plan . It has good success stories even with ladies going through IVF . It was also a nice way to de stress and just chat to an expert as the guy I went to and will go back to specialists in fertility acupuncture. I thought anything I can do to relax is good . I've not done meditation in weeks though.. I should start again . You kept it up @SmileyT ? X x

@2020wish I tested this morning. BFN. I'm not testing again until Sunday because it's too stressful and actually, if I just wait for AF then I'll know and I can save the tests for another time.

@MichT4 it's awful isn't it? I need to relax. Sometimes reading all of the TTC stuff make you more on edge.

@VP91x I'm working nights now until next Friday so that'll be me distracted for a while!

@mrssk yep I did a couple of those too - not many. It's funny because part of me thinks the same, and to not sign up to anything but the other part thinks I need to assume this will be different and enjoy it the same. Easier said than done though - I'll be a nervous wreck!

@Renna thanks for the info on acupuncture. I thought it would be in your stomach too! Might look into something, just for a bit of a change!

@2020wish yeah deffo I convinced myself I feel less stressed with it this month but I'm not when it comes to the important temp times like just before AF and seeing drop in temp in ava makes me feel rubbish I'd rather just be naive I think . It doesnt change the outcome. If I know roughly when i ovulate i dont need it all really .. its helpful if you dont know when you ovulate or it differs every month but mine is pretty regular... I also want to focus on ramping up my workouts and diet but I keep putting it off incase I'm pg .... maybe I should just focus on that going forward and getting pg may follow if my body and mind is healthier and occupied yano xx

How do you find the fertility acupuncture

@chloedancer897 I had the first cycle hopes too. All the reading that you are super fertile after MC, I thought it would happen. We just have to be a little more patient. I've tried hard this month to find other things to focus on, and it does help. Today is a busy work day so time goes much quicker. Next week is meant to be glorious weather so I might take some days off for some nice long walks.

@2020wish what a bloody lovely lie in! Hope you enjoyed your wine. I had a glass last night too, it tasted like chlorine haha. It's one of my favourites but had been open a few days. I still drank it

@chloedancer897 and @MichT4 I was getting the ads etc too but I cleared my internet history and cookies and that seemed to have helped most of the baby related ads disappear.
The odd one pops up but that was the case pre PG.
It was heartbreaking unsubscribing from the pregnancy newsletters so fx next time round I'll hold off a bit before subscribing like mad to every pregnancy website 🤪

@chloedancer897 I’m tempted lol did you do one today? I dunno whether to do one today with the fmu ive held the wait til Sunday or just dump it and wait til Sunday.

What’s everyone else’s thoughts lol 😂

Those talking about acupuncture.. I've had it before lockdown after MC focusing on fertility and the needles arent place where youd think they would be lol ... I was expecting the needles to be in stomach/back but it focuses on certain points on body , I had them place in arm hand middle of forehead .. finger .. ankle .. leg..
Was good and relaxing as did guided meditation straight after but obvs didnt work on that occasion and not been since lockdown but would go back once opened and they also do work with you when you do get pg and focusing on a successful prg and reducing stress xx

@renna I’m considering taking a back seat myself next month with opks and bbt and just DTD when we feel like it. It’s all so consuming isn’t it?

@2020wish we are driving ourselves nuts here. I don't feel pregnant anymore either but how many on here have said they didn't have any symptoms? Don't lose hope yet! Let's make a pact. Will we hold off testing again until Sunday, both of us? Because I don't think we are doing ourselves any favours. I'm actually driving myself and my OH demented. Are you in? We can both do them on Sunday. Imagine the surprise with a Father's Day BFP!

@VP91x massive TMI but I don't think I actually am spotting now, it's just clear/v light yellow CM (sorry!) so now I haven't a clue what's going on

@VP91x amazing puppy picture! He is very handsome xxx very exciting xx

@HE88 I'm currently in cycle 4 since MMC but didnt get a peak the first cycle so thinking I didnt ovulate then as I was getting faint positive pg tests for a couple weeks after . And before MC I used opks for 4 cycles , so yeah getting bit fed up with them 🙄 xx really I guess I dont need them as each month I ovulate around the same couple days so I know my cycle really x deffo should do what stresses you out the least xx xx

Morning ladies! Had a few wine last night with the other half so waking up late today lol I’ve no tests left :( just cheapies which was a bfn. But I’ve frer on the way in the post today so I’ve saved my fmu lol 10dpo today and feeling not pregnant anymore :( had my hopes up past few days but feeling out now

@Bellabubble thanks xx interesting , I'm not even sure she has a UTI reading your message and she doesnt really have same symptoms. I'm thinking we give her access to too much water and because it's there shell drink it . Has like 4 or 5 bowls a day . Last night we stopped her water couple hours before bed and she didnt urinate in her crate so that's good . I think she needs some more work on toilet training . I thought she was doing well as she will outside to wee if the door is open .. but wont signal she needs to go if door shut .. xx hope bella feels better asap xx

@VP91x not usually, but I just don't feel the same today as I felt the other day. I spent most of last night googling early pregnancy symptoms only to stumble upon this article to say that they're all rubbish and you can't get symptoms before your missed period! Then I felt like a complete psycho tracking all of these symptoms!

@MichT4 I get that 100% and we have all felt that jealousy, it's very normal.

Same with my phone, all I get at the minute is ads for pregnancy scans. It's like a kick in the teeth. This was my first month trying post MC so the chances were slim that I would get PG but I still felt hopeful. I wish I could just forget about it for a while and get on with things 😞

@chloedancer897 @IWM20 I know what you both mean. I was early on but the big brother culture meant all the adverts on my phone were about baby stuff. And I couldn't help but start thinking about things.
That's why I'm finding silly things hard with my sister being PG - worried she'll get the things I liked, or use any names we had. It's definitely a life planned out, so it's really hard.
We will all have that one day though, hopefully really soon xx

@VP91x hi...actually refused the bloods as my go reckons the spotting around the 27th would be my light period and I’m not due a period till the 24th so I am testing pretty early I’ve told her il wait till af and if it doesn’t arrive will do the blood test I have still been getting faint lines still 14 June sometimes lighter sometimes darker not keeping hopes up but keeping everything crossed 😂😂🙏🏻
