TTC after MC - August 2020 (Thread 9)

@Pugprincess Huge congratulations 🥳 Hoping you have a healthy and happy pregnancy 🥰

@scrambledeggy one always says they won't symptom spot, but I find myself doing so every time. It's a rule of TTC I think, you have to do all the things you say you won't do and drive yourself mad in the process xx

@MichT4 You know what, you're right, both the MC and my coming off the pill in the last 6 months could have messed stuff up! I said I wouldn't symptom spot, but in these boring times there's not much else to do to distract myself from work...

I'm testing next Thursday/Friday, same as @Firevie @Lollol86 and yourself, I'm so lucky to be in this exclusive club

@Northernsoul90 thank you, weirdly I still have w bit of a lull about me I think. I just feel a bit meh, if you know what I mean. I need to snap out of it.
how are you today? Any progression with the bleeding?

@Pugprincess that is definitely line progression, congratulations. I really hope this one is a sticky one xx

@Firevie Have a safe flight and enjoy your trip!!! It's a real shame that you've had to leave on bad terms with DH - men can be such idiots 🤦🏽‍♀️. They get carried away being selfish and don't think of the bigger picture. I'm sure he will apologise and hopefully meet you over there soon xx

@Pugprincess Congratulations!!!! 🥳🥳💖💖 Fingers crossed for you that the nice line progression continues! Xx

@MichT4 I'm glad you are feeling a bit better this morning 😊 xx

I hope everyone has a lovely sunny Saturday!

@scrambledeggy yes join our testing club 😁

@Firevie oh bless you what a night you have had. Even if he comes in 3/4 days that makes no difference as it can take up to 2 weeks to gets symptoms . You have every right to be mad. See if I was you I wouldn't contact him now, but I'm so stubborn 😂😂 it will be good for you to go away and see all of your family and friends xx

@VP91x meant to ask how you are today?

And everyone! Have lovely sunny Saturdays xx

@Firevie - hope you ok and have a safe flight. Men can be idiots at times, especially when with their mates as they don’t know when to stop. I hope you’d bet everything sorted. Enjoy you time away anyway x

@VP91x yeah I am feeling better this morning I think. Sun is shining so can't complain too much! The film was brilliant, but it's very dark and a bit disturbing. Really that's just credit to the acting, it's worth a watch for sure.

@Firevie wow! What a 24 hours you've been put through by DH. I honestly can't believe he didn't see you off and think he is going to wake up feeling terrible. He should! I would be furious!
Well done to you for just walking away and doing what you need to do. I hope he comes to his senses and realised what an arse he was!

@Pugprincess lovely developing lines! So happy it happened quickly for you, especially after how long it took first time. I really hope this is a super sticky one!

@scrambledeggy you are having some very confusing symptoms. It's so annoying that they can usually all mean both things - especially after MC it seems! I really really hope yours are PG symptoms. What day next week will you test?
I keep hoping I feel some kind of symptom. The last pregnancy I had really swollen boobs. And I've had sore boobs every month since the first MC, which I never used to get before. So I know it's a AF sign too, but I haven't got them at all yet. What's this body up to this time?

xx

@Pugprincess I mean, I'm fully onboard with this trust your body thing but they don't half do some weird stuff! Interesting that it can vary so much from pregnancy to pregnancy too. I originally came of the mininpill in the spring bc of boob pain and when I mentioned this in my Grandma's presence she straight up asked me if I was pregnant!

@Pugprincess thank you! And I am keeping my fingers crossed for you so that the lines get darker and darker! Flight is two hours so I’ll be home around 11am London time.
Btw you know how I take my BBT every morning at 6.30 do you ladies suggest sticking to that? Given Vienna is one hour ahead of London so my 6:30 here will be 7.30 Vienna time or shall I keep to 630 Vienna time?! Xxx

@scrambledeggy of course you can join the testing club. I will Test Friday morning before driving to the wedding will set me up nicely either way!
Xx

@Firevie no problem, have a safe flight, how long is the flight? Let us know when you have landed and settled 🙂 safe journey xxx

Thank you so much @scrambledeggy @VP91x @Pugprincess, I knew you guys would understand! Xxx

@scrambledeggy the weirdest thing so far is my boobs don’t really hurt. They did last time. I get stabbing pains in them but don’t feel like swollen or anything. My weirdest symptoms have been a twitchy right eye for nearly a week and from yesterday my eyes are watering like mad and feel like I have something in them. I googled and it is a thing apparently. X

Thank you @VP91x and @scrambledeggy and @Firevie, I’ve done a collage to compare them to yesterday’s fresh tests rather than dry. I can’t believe it’s happened so quick after my 5 years of trying. The more fertile after mc thing must be true. So happy but pray I can keep it now!! Trying not to get my hopes up until I’m in a safer stage. I’d be 4 weeks tomorrow, I’m 13dpo. Xx

Sorry @Firevie I didn’t see your msg till after I posted. Urghhh men can be such arses! It’s like they get carried away and have no off button sometimes. My OH is exactly the same. It’s a shame you have had to leave on an argument and I hope you will be ok. Hopefully you can sort it over the phone when you have had some time. Honestly men are like big kids lol, well mine can defo be lol. It would have been nice if on your last day he would get up early and see you off etc. Really inconsiderate x

@DBTJ Yay!!! So happy you are getting help for your sickness as well!

@MichT4 , @MrsK21 Omg all my friends having gender reveal parties slightly upsets me for the exact same reason! Glad I'm not completely losing it. Also I almost had another self-pity cry last night, but feel a lot better after a good night's sleep. @chloedancer897 I know what you mean- I feel like strong, lasting BFPs must be something that happen to other "normal" people, but then I remind myself what my CBT therapist used to say about being you and your body's own cheerleader, because in the end your body is doing its best to keep you alive. So I am trying to be my own cheerleader by saying nice things about my body- even if I'm horribly gassy at the moment, at least it means I'm digesting food!

@Northernsoul90 I was so tired last night after going on a nice walk to pick the blackberries for my pie that I never got round to making the pie! On the bright side I have LOADS of blackberries so that'll be a nice task for today

@Firevie Oh god, DH being so rude is the last thing you need on your mind! That's so unacceptable after he knew how concerned you were about protecting your family. I hope you had a nice relaxing evening with your takeaway at least, and that you have a safe trip. Can I join your Thursday/Friday testing club?

@Pugprincess Thank you for the reassurance and the implantation knowledge, the light brown stuff has gone now, so here's hoping! And WOW look at that progression! Hope the nausea passes, but congrats Remind me, how many DPO are you?

I can't tell if I want my boobs to stop aching because it's uncomfortable, or to keep aching because it could be a sign of pregnancy

@Pugprincess yay I can see a line and yay to feeling sick hah. Fingers crossed xxx

Morning all, I have some progression on the tests this morn and I feel sick 😅

Good morning ladies! So have arrived at airport waiting to drop off baggage. Had huge fight with DH - need to rant it out with you guys. He didn’t rock up until 1!!! Completely pissed! Even locked himself in freshly cleaned to throw up. He never throws up! Basically they went to weatherspoons after the park. I was and still am absolutely livid. Even after voicing my concerns before he left he didn’t have it in himself to control himself just cos he met his team mates after 5months! So what I haven’t met up with anyone in these five months other than nurses doctors for my MMC! Like FFS! Obv I’m screamed down at him saying how upset and disappointed I am and if roles were reversed he would never forgive me for such behaviour and for being flippant in putting his parents lives at risk! His argument (v weak one) is that his visa didn’t arrive yesterday anyway and because of how I was feeling about him going out yesterday he would come 3/4 days later anyway. So what that gives him the right to go to a bloody pub and get even more pissed?! I’ve just left him in the guest bedroom after I screamed at him again this morning. Last night I even told him not to bother coming to Vienna and I will just see him in September when I’m back. Then I said if he really wanted to come then he shouldn’t bother without having a negative test here. This morning I had nothing else to say. He was snoring away still drunk obv but I’m absolutely living but also really glad that I’m going home now. But what makes me so angry and upset is that he is always such a big advocate for family values etc but with this one act he has disrespected me and my family. He better not expect anything from me next time we have to go and see his family. Anyway I wanted to share this with you ladies and get it off my chest as it has put a right damper on my mood. Who knows when he will come to Vienna now! Ugh! Xxx

@MichT4 you definitely do need to acknowledge it otherwise you will never really come to terms with it.
Your beautiful pup will help fill part of the empty hole.
Tomorrow is a new day 😘 xx
