TTC after MC - June 2020 (Part 3)

I like your style @SmileyT - mix the gin with CM juice! Two birds with one stone!

😂😂😂 re the cheeselets. While 95% of what I consume is probably with TTC in mind, yes these are just yummy crisps. They will not make your lining thicker but they might just comfort you 😂

@VP91x TMI warning (maybe) but today I was on top and it just felt like more leaked out. So then I had a panic they’d all gone 😂😂 such romance.

Yep @banbi, got to have our treats.
I survived well after my sisters scan pics but now I’m panicking she will choose the buggy I wanted (I hadn’t chosen one) or decorate the nursery how I’d have (haven’t done that). Is that irrational girls? Such silly things in the scheme of things but it’s bothering me

@Renna hope pup is feeling better soon 😊

@VP91x sorry I may have missed this but what did your opk look like tonight? I'm all good just patiently waiting for fertile window, a girl at work told me she was pregnant today, she is 9 weeks and it was kinda hard to hear. She has been trying for about 2 years and she knows about the MC so was very kind but still felt jealous then felt awful for feeling that way 😩

Sorry AF arrived @Banbi but enjoy your wine, i was on the Gin and Grapefruit juice over the weekend 😂

@MichT4 I just googled cheeselets I thought it was some kind of ttc magic but instead they look like very yummy crisps... enjoy 😋

Thanks @MichT4

I'm ok. We hadn't "properly" been trying (plan was to start this next cycle) so my head was sure it wasn't real. But stupid irrational hope. Ta for the tip re OPKs

Sorry you've had a bizarre one. I think the most important thing is to have a sense of humour about this journey when we can... and drink the wine and eat the cheeselets when we need them.

Hello! Brand new member here, just come across this forum when googling desperate for answers! Hopefully it’s okay for me to jump in and join everyone? I’ve been TTC for a while now, after coming off the pill in January this year (after five years on it!) and have recently discovered OPK testing and the new world of TTC

Ahh @banbi sorry AF got you. I’ll be joining you in a glass of wine tonight 🍷
Are you feeling ok?

I got mine from amazon, they were about £14 for 50 OPKs and 20 PG tests (I think). I thought that would last me a few months, but nope! Still good value I think though.

So ladies, here I am tonight, DTD, worrying the swimmers fell out after and stuffing cheeselets into my face. One of those days 😂

Well boo. We're calling this CD1 unfortunately. I've never had spotting before AF before, despite how common it is - another change of pace gifted me by my post-MC body

Still, today and grapefruit juice tomorrow.

Any tips on best place to get cheapy OPKs?

And huge congrats @IWM20

@IWM20 Ooh massive massive congratulations to you my love! What will your due date be? Mine should be 16th Feb

I'm still lurking on these boards as I'm too scared to move over to the pregnancy board.

and to anyone who's having a rough day.

@VP91x I have had symptoms that could be pg or af 😂🙄 sore boobs, bit lightheaded, but I have also had those every week before I get af visiting since I had my mc! I still have some cm and I don’t remember having that in the days before af - but it’s not loads like other ladies that have had their bfp’s here! Af is due fri/sat/sun (as I have had 27/28 and 29 day cycles) but all have started with spotting at 26dpo - which hasn’t happenes so far today. Who knows - keeping positive 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Sorry to hear about your flashy smiley - that is super annoying!! I’m sending lh surge thoughts your way!! xx

@MichT4 yeh I’m sooooo hoping I caved and did it too early! I think I got swayed by all the bfp’s here that had happened early in the tww that I decided to give it a go - definitely wishing I had waited now though 😂 I’m blaming hubby for going out on an evening walk/chocolate run! It wouldn’t have happened if he was in!! still..the working week is going fast!

@renna - it must be the week for poorly dogs! Bella has an ear infection in both ears and a uti too!! xx

It's ok @IWM20 I knew what you meant! I'm sure you're all over the place with excitement and I'm so so excited for you, especially after your loss. Hoping for a sticky bean for you! Keep us updated ❤️❤️❤️

@chloedancer897 I've just re read my last message about dates and Ive got the month wrong on everything I said 😂😂. Im not thinking properly I'm in shock 🤣🤣.

MC started 21st May. EWCM/high OPK 4/5th June and then BFP today 🤦‍♀️

@chloedancer897 sending so much baby dust your way ❤️. I tested Monday so CD 25 and got a clear negative then too so don't lose hope xxx

@IWM20 similar to me. I MC on 24th May, peaked on 5th June so I'm CD24 today. Had two negative tests already so I'm holding out until Sunday to test because the negative tests are devastating.

@2020wish we are! I tested again this morning BFN. I rarely get a positive before AF due. Even when I MC I tested on 16th (d13dpo) BFN then got the positive the next day so I just need to wait. Are you doing ok? Glad your bloods are normal x

@chloedancer897 your my cycle buddy? How u getting on

Thanks everyone. Yea think I just have to stay positive and know ok not out until Monday. I’m hoping the aspirin work. In other news all my bloods came back normal. So basically I’ve no reason as to why I keep losing the pregnancies. Suppose on the upside is that maybe nothing is wrong and next time might be the time until I get seen in the RMC. Doctor advised to still take the aspirin as many women who get normal bloods still take it and end up carrying full term... maybe their blood is boarderline clotting and just needs a bit of a push in the right direction? Who knows

Micht4 maybe so, hopefully that’s you peak tho and you will see a change in temps tomorrow

@HopeForRainbowbaby it’s so hard isn’t trying to stay positive .

I’ve got the wine lol so might have a glass or two later

@renna thanks hun. Hope ur feeling ok also... as they say we aren’t out until AF arrives. Hang in there still

Flip we are all so good at giving advice but crap at taking our own haha

@Renna really hope all the tests come back with a nice easy solution

@Freddie15VES sorry to hear about the job. Fingers crossed things turn out well for both things. It’s so easy to think we can distract ourselves but the reality is so different. It’s so consuming! That’s why I find it hard when people say it’ll happen if you stop thinking about it....WTAF 😂

@VP91x not tracking any other way, I found out about the chemical and then found out I’m at risk of redundancy so we’ve decided to carry on like normal and if it happens then it happens! We toyed with the idea of stopping trying whilst I see what happens with my job but we just thought we’d take a more relaxed approach, no OPKS or testing early etc. Way easier said than done though haha!

@AWM20 congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 xxx

@MichT4 not sure how it started only had her 3 weeks and the weird gag cough started like a week after we got her so took her to vets and put her on antibiotics but she still has it . And like the last week shes urinated herself when napping which is strange and other signs of possible UTI so took her back today to ask about both things . So having urine test done to see if it is a UTI
Bless her xx she had all her jabs worming fleaing etc done before we got her xx

@renna oh no! How did that start? Has the vet given any indication at all? Poor pup! Hope she’s feeling much better soon. Bet she’s getting big quickly!
