TTC after MC - August 2020 (Thread 9)

Ladies I have taken a few days off from mumsnet and I’ve missed about 700 posts on this thread 🤣 I will try to catch up....
hope you’re all doing okay xxx

@Lollol86 horrendous. I'm not even attempting to do my own, they'll have to do 😂

@MichT4 oh yours are bad too then 😭😭

@Rebecca1992 amazing news about your scan! So lovely to hear the heartbeat too 🥰🌈

@SmileyT 😂😂 sorry for the mind blowing! I'm just in from dinner with a friend. Glad we DTD earlier (covering all bases) as I'm shattered now! One more day at work and then seeing puppy on Friday.

@2020wish all the luck tomorrow! Can't wait to hear how you get on

@Pugprincess glad you're feeling better now.

Girls, don't even talk to me about eyebrows 🐛🐛

@chloedancer897 @SmileyT thanks I think I’ve recovered and I’ve eaten my dinner. Will take it easy rest of tonight. X

@Lollol86 absolutely. I was convinced when we started trying in October 2017 that I'd be pregnant by Christmas. I didn't think for a second I would have issues.

@SmileyT that's a good idea. I might ask the consultant on Friday when he rings me again. Thank you.

@2020wish good luck for tomorrow xx

@Pugprincess I hope you're ok. That sounds really scary x

@2020wish good luck for your scan tomorrow. What time is it at? Xx

@SmileyT I use to pluck mine and now when I look back at pictures I look like I had no eyebrows 🤣🤣 that definitely use to be the fashion right 🤣

@Rebecca1992 that’s great news! Really pleased for you!
@2020wish good luck for your scan tmr xxx

@Lollol86 I've actually never plucked my own eyebrows and really wasn't willing to take the risk on my own #firstworldproblems 😂

@Rebecca1992 yes don't overthink it, just a healthy bean growing quick with a strong HB ❤️ you're really close to me as I'm 7w4 now x

@Northernsoul90 yeah I'm good thanks, 7w4, just trying to stay as positive as possible, this is exactly the date the pregnancy stopped progressing last time (even though I didn't find out until nearly 10w) so it's nerve wracking but staying grateful for how far I've come. Really hoping you end this long slog of a cycle with a BFP. I'm honestly so invested in you girls and hope this just ends up as a pregnancy thread x

@Pugprincess I don't know if it's up your street, but I find short meditation really good if my mind starts running away with me and I'm feeling overwhelmed. You've been through so much emotionally and physically it's not a surprise you've had a funny turn. Look after yourself and get an early night x

@2020wish excited for you to see your little bean tomorrow and hopefully another milestone passed xx

@2020wish best of luck with your scan tomorrow ❤️

@Rebecca1992 that’s great that you are ahead. Hopefully that’s a sign of a strong baby 👶🏼

@chloedancer897 I was also wondering like @SmileyT whether you could freeze some for now? Just the freezing might not to be too expensive. I don’t know if the nhs would do it under special circumstances like yours? Anything’s worth an ask I suppose?

I’ve just had a tight funny turn. Was cooking dinner and went all weak and felt like I was going to pass out. Had to have air, water and biscuits 😩 led me to have a panic attack. Think all this is really taking its toll and them ex work colleagues haven’t helped my stress today either. X

@SmileyT Thank you! Are you still getting on okay?? How many weeks will you be now? Xx

Thank u for all the wishes!! Yes I'm completely confusing myself probably due to measuring ahead, I always measured behind as both my girls were small.

I can rest at ease now I know the little bean is beating away in there!

@@2020wish I'm measuring 7+2, are u excited for tomorrow?? What time is yours?

@Rebecca1992 aww congrats so happy for u!!! So what are they dating u as? If it was a previous pregancy then u would be nearly 3 months?

@SmileyT omg I'm jealous my eyebrows are bloody awful. I'm at the stage where I don't want to touch them just incase they open soon 😂😂

@chloedancer897 don't you find though because you fell easier both times you kind of expect it to happen again. Take some time out for yourself xx

@VP91x hope the 2nd day went well and you were able to head home at lunch for some telly and a cuppa x

@MichT4 I'm all good thanks, met my friend for a drink after work and just got in so bloody exhausted but apart from that good. You need to stop doing opks they are seriously blowing my mind, definitely think you may have a high base level of LH x

@Northernsoul90 Happy Anniversary lovely x

@Lollol86 I started getting my eyebrows done at the beginning of July I didn't realise until afterwards it was definitely still illegal 🙈

@Pugprincess that's a bit crappy of work not to ring you first but you had decided to leave anyway onto a better situation for you with less stress which is just what you need x

@chloedancer897 ahh I'm so sorry you are feeling low, I'd definitely say don't give up as you never know if it'll happen next time for you, but totally understand that the news can be a shock and that you need to consider what is best for your mental health. This may be a stupid question but can you freeze eggs you have currently? xx

@Rebecca1992 fantastic news about your scan... if you are measuring a few days ahead I wouldn't worry too much as size could just be down to early implantation/ ovulation. Did you have a chemical last month? If you had stayed pregnant then you would've dated at around 11weeks wouldn't you? Sorry if I've got confused x

@Lollol86 the first was an accident and the second I conceived the first cycle off the pill. Never had an issue before now

@Rebecca1992 that is amazing news congratulations ❤️🥳

@chloedancer897 did you manage to fall pregnant a lot quicker with your last 2? It's devastating that is can be just taken away from you isn't it. I really hope everything turns out ok for you xx

@fafi Thank you! We are definitely due some more bfs 🤞🏼🤞🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 xx

@chloedancer897 So sorry about your appointment as that you are feeling so upset about it, I would feel the same. Allow yourself to be upset for a couple of days and then look at what options you have once you have got your head around things? Xx

@Sallyjo27 That's so rubbish about the tests how frustrating for you 😩. I don't have any experience of them sorry or know much about the tests but hopefully some of the other ladies might. Hope you are okay xx

@Rebecca1992 That's brilliant news!! I bet you are thrilled to have seen the heartbeat xx

Hi Ladies, My scan went well thank god! Only 1 in there but very grateful for that!!

Good strong heartbeat so I think can start relaxing a bit now and enjoy it! One thing that has me slightly confused is I'm measuring 3 days ahead from my LMP which would be the exact day of my faint positive test last month before I bled 3 days later??

I'm confused as to whether I really lost the first pregnancy or not??🤔
