TTC after MC - July/August 2020 (Thread 8)

Bottom ones this morn top yesterday. Seems to show better when dry so I will another photo later x

@SmileyT thinking of you today, and keeping everything crossed that you get to see your little bean nappy in there very soon xx

@Firevie that's great you got a temp spike! What a lovely, textbook ovulation you've had! Very jealous 😂

@Pugprincess good luck for this morning, let us see the pic once you've done it

xx

I need to stop getting my hopes up the frer was a bust and so was easy at home. Still a slight something developing on one step like yesterday I think. It’s either too early or I’m not pregnant. I will keep trying each morning with my one steps as they seem to work best for me. See if I can see anything progressing etc. I’m still having stabbing pains, been sneezing a lot which I read can be a symptom and I know I was having sneezing fits in my first preg. Had stabbing pains in my nipple a couple of times yesterday so I do feel like weird things are happening. I’m 7dpo today so one week to go hey. X

@Pugprincess Fingers crossed for you lovely xxx

@SmileyT Thinking of you this morning, really hope all is well 💖

@SmileyT - thank you! Wow you ladies have taught me so much! I actually can’t believe I caught my peak etc! Have you had / can you have some nice breakfast? It’s almost 730 so 10am will come in no time!
@VP91x aw thank you! Well we might do it tonight again just for good measure but then we will need break for two weeks 🤣🤣🤣
I am going for my hair cut today! I am so excited, cannot wait. Hope you lovely ladies have a good Sunday! Sending positive Sunday vibes xxx

@SmileyT good luck for today. I'm praying it's good news for you xx

@VP91x actually slept so deeply but been up a while now, I'm feeling so sick this morning but think it's anxiety 🤢 how are you this morning? x

@Pugprincess don't feel any pressure when testing it's still so early just try it this morning then maybe give it a couple days so you can see the progression and hope you enjoyed the McDs 🤤 x

@MichT4 you'll be great as a pup mum and I'm sure as with anything it will be a learning curve but also so rewarding for all of you x

@HopeForRainbowbaby @Rebecca1992 @Dipsy77 @fafi @Mommybear05 thanks lovelies, hope you're all doing well ❤️

@2020wish only 4 more sleeps until you get to see your little bean, but I totally understand being impatient and letting your mind run away with you x

@1990EM ahh thanks for sharing that info about RHR, I'm really hoping I'm another story with a happy ending, this is around the point that the last pregnancy stopped progressing so think I'm feeling doubly anxious x

@Firevie I'm okay this morning just patiently waiting for 10am. If you're temp has gone up today I'd say definitely ovulated yesterday which is text book in line with your peak on Friday 🙌🏾 I'd say that if you don't fancy doing it tonight you are probably all covered already x

@Pugprincess good luck!! @VP91x @SmileyT how are you feeling this morning? We DTD last night as well but I think some of you said to just do it tonight as well just for good measure. It is just so exhausting - we never used to DTD every day even when we started dating let alone now 🤣🤣🤣 also my BBT spiked right up today, highest it has been since I’ve been temping, so I guess that’s a good indication that ovulation has now occurred? Apps say ovulation yesterday and the Opks I did yesterday was also low after the peak reading I had on Friday. This is all so confusing ....

@VP91x yep we're cycle twins again! Yay! I'm glad you and I both have a plan of action at least😊 it feels very reassuring and even dtd this month has been way more stress free.

@Pugprincess I have everything crossed for you lovely lady. Please post your test as soon as you get it! X

@fafi thanks! Hopefully it will show something, I will do the one step too so it’s same as last two days to give some comparison. But I know the hormone doesn’t go up every 24 hours does it, like 48-72 so maybe tomorrow might just be the same as today?

@Mommybear05 @chloedancer897 definitely draining. I had given up really, didn’t expect to ever naturally conceive. Xx

@Mommybear05 thanks so much. I actually can't believe it's been so long. It really just drains every part of you x fingers crossed for us all xo

Hey all, I'm still around - I hope you're ok! Had some friends around today and discovered a beer koozi is the best way to hide that 0% beer can 😂

@VP91x Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear about Coco 😔 so sad.x

@hayleylou89 oh my gosh what a story! I'm glad you pushed to get that scan - just goes to show that sometimes when you have a feeling you gotta push them sometimes! I hope you're ok xx

@MichT4 omg what a gorgeous puppy! How exciting! Enjoy your trip x

@SmileyT sorry to hear you're feeling anxious, I hope you get some reassurance tomorrow x

@pugprincess fingers crossed for a BFP on your FRER tomorrow, but like others have said try not to panic if it's negative! It could just be a bit too early for you.

@SmileyT so sorry to hear that you are feeling worried about your pregnancy. I hear that pregnancy symptoms can come and go and that your two pregnancies won’t necessarily feel the same. But I know this must be a worry for you if you don’t feel right. Happy to hear you can be scanned so quickly. So let us know how you get on. We will all be thinking of you. Absolute massive hugs xxxxxxxxxxxx

@Blondecomment0703 so sorry you find yourself here. I was in the same place back in March, turning up to the scan to see that little empty sac after having been imagining the progression. I really hope that your body recovers quickly and then next time you have more luck xx

@2020wish here’s hoping everything is progressing nicely for you in your scan this time x

@chloedancer897 @Pugprincess just wanted to say big hugs for you guys to be trying for a baby for so long. I have only been trying five months this time since my miscarriage and it’s already getting me down sometimes. I can’t imagine how it would feel to try for so long. Sending positive vibes and I so so hope you girls get your bfps and nice healthy pregnancies soon xxxx

@Jazper we sound so similar! I really hope af stays away for you this time! When my period returned at 13 months it was the only period I had and then I was pg again but miscarried. So yes I too am used to conceiving quickly. I’m in full flow today after spotting for four days. So if you count this as cd1 that left me with a 26 day cycle. Ovulation happened cd 15 and with all that spotting in between it seems my luteal phase is short, typical sign of hormonal imbalance associated with breastfeeding and post breastfeeding and miscarriage. I hope I get more support Tuesday. In the mean time I’m back on vitex xx

@calimommy I hated no periods for 13 months. We decided we wanted to ttc and couldn’t get a cycle ☹️ But I know for lots of women it’s great. And it’s so varied- my friend was just like you, she had periods straight away even when breastfeeding. I was so jealous!

@MichT4 aw seeing the litter must be so tempting! You know your situation and if you feel like you can afford a puppy and commit enough time to care for one then now would be a great time I think! You need a little joy and some love to give and receive! And when you have a baby they will be friends for life ❤️

@chloedancer897 aw what a beautiful dog ❤️

@VP91x yea the last 2 months I've definitely drained my poor dh 🤣🤣 I'm really looking forward to it, my girls have 5 cousins my side and they are all so close so will definitely have lots of fun xx

Just caught up on today's thread (been quiet but keep an eye on this thread every day!) and sorry to hear how you're feeling @SmileyT.. I just wanted to tell you that the same thing happened to me at 6/7 weeks.. my RHR went way down and my boobs weren't sore any more, etc. I panicked but found a fitbit forum where different ladies had the same thing happen to them around 6 weeks.. RHR went down again but in all the cases where they followed up they said the pregnancy had ended up fine and it seems to be a normal thing that happens. I'm nearly 12 weeks now, my symptoms returned with a vengeance around 8 weeks. So i really really hope this is the case with you too, reading about others experiences helped me a lot and I hope this gives you a bit of hope too ❤ kids are so late tonight but after I get them to bed I'll see if I can find that link for you about RHR! My RHR didn't really come up again since that inital drop around 6w so maybe your body just adapts to the extra blood flow by then! Xx
