TTC after MC - August 2020 (Thread 11)

@fafi I'm 8weeks 5 days and I hope i measure that or more at the scan!

@Pugprincess @Lollol86 @Cici89 @Rebecca1992 @susiebluebell @Rb486 @MichT4 - thank you, I feel so much better!

@chloxhunt thank you - all the best for you this afternoon! How far along are you?x

@BEESY90 I've had that a bit! As long as it's not severe and constant and you don't have 'shoulder tip' pain I am sure all is well (though you will probably have phantom shoulder tip pain now I have said that! If it's really worrying you speak to your EPAU xx

@ladysamee I can kinda see a line there!

@Mamainmaking1 I took Pregnacare for conception plus omega cause I am vegan. I drank pomegranate juice in my TWW as I was also worried about my lining thickness. It's pricey but I feel it was worth it as I am 8 weeks pregnant now! Of you choose to try pom juice get the POM 100% juice one, not the from concentrate, and have a small glass a day. 1 bottle should do 3-4 glasses x

Tested this morning and got a bfn 😫 has anyone else had the same situation where you've had a faint line one morning then bfn the next? x

Does anyone have a due date looming closer? Mine should have been 31st Oct... I hate the fact it’s getting so near now! Really want a BFP before then 🤞

@Mamainmaking1 I’m right here with you!! 6DPO, CD16 I think I am now. I ovulated earlier this month on CD11. Sorry to hear about your chemical 😭 and hope you have success this cycle! I just take the seven seas trying for a baby vitamin which I believe has folic acid and vitamin d in. There’s lots of other vits you can take though which I’m sure the girls will tell you about! Sending you positive vibes xx

@VP91x glad your OH is home and the pup is having some training. I’m sure all will be fine when they return and you can enjoy 🐶
And yay to the temp rise...

@Bl0ndi3 defos looks darker, defos more than it says it is too. Defos catch a peak soon!

@fafi awww look at that scab pic 😍😭 so cute, exiting! Hope you enjoy every second!

I’m now 6DPO. It’s going so slow 😂 I finished nights yesterday morning and am off today and tomorrow. Back on days Wednesday, always have time to think about it when I’m off. Got to do some housework today though, we had our kitchen done in June and had a wall knocked through so ceiling was put right and it’s finally all finished. Thinking maybe a little b&m/range trip to accessorise my shelves also 😜 Xx

@BEESY90 I had cramps mainly in my left side and turned out to be okay! But I'd go get it checked. When I was on the phone with them they said sharp pain is something we don't want! So go get it looked at

Hi everyone. Does anyone have experience with ectopic or round ligament pain? I have had pain on my lower left side since last week when rolling over in bed. A sharp pain. The pain is a little sharper this week but I can feel it if I sneeze now or stand from sitting. If I press on the area its tender. It isn’t a constant pain. Should I be worried? X

Hi everyone could I join into this chat?

I had a chemical around two weeks at approx 5 weeks. I'm on cycle day 11 ATM - got a peak opk today (normal for me as I have short cycles) so starting another tww and would love some support through it.

Does anyone on here take any supplements etc to try and prevent further miscarriages ? Can anyone advise me on anything I could take and also anything to help thicken the lining given my cycles are very short?

I hope everyone is doing well at their stage of cycle and congratulations to those that have their BFP!

@Northernsoul90 ah sorry you’ve such a ride of this year with loosing your grandma too 😭 they say things come in threes, hopefully that’s it now and you can continue on the up for the rest of the year! Sounded like you needed that time off to just get your head around everything and process it all. Take it easy won’t you and just do things one step at a time. I was thinking even though I’m missing a baby in my life atm, I am extremely grateful for other things. Lovely partner, lovely home, good job, friends, family etc. I guess we just have to think of the positives. So when we can get back up and travelling again.. where will everyone go? A dream destination?
@VP91x got to be somewhere big for the 30th 🥳 have you made any birthday plans? Xx

@fafi awww that so lovely to hear! I've got my scan this afternoon due to spotting hoping for a good outcome

To all you ladies that have flashing smiles, I'm sending you lots of baby dust xx

@fafi congratulations on that scan, I love seeing them! Lovely bean!

Yay @Bl0ndi3 & @Northernsoul90 that is fab regarding the OPKs showing fertile window is here for you both. That is where I am at now - CD16 & got our first flashy smiley 😊 Last month I got them for 10 days before the static, so it got a little exhausting haha. But I didn’t want to reduce to every other day, just in case I got the static much sooner. Tough balance haha. Xxx

@MichT4 They are long cycles! Try enjoy the rest of your holiday and test when you get back, no AF yet is still in the game!
Hopefully things will be clearer in the coming days!

@fafi Congrats 🥳 I hope you can start to enjoy now!

My cheapie OPKs seem to be finally getting darker so I'll start CBD properly from tomorrow as only been doing it every other day and probably try and DTD every other day where I can. OH doesn't know I test so DTD has to happen "naturally" haha

Feeling better today been for a run with my friend and finally managed to stick to my diet 🤩😂 trying to just focus on my health and fitness. I quit vaping when I got pregnant and I've stayed off that because it was so difficult to give up!! I've stayed off caffeine and anything with aspartame in it too :)

@fafi Congrats! X

Hey ladies hope everyone is well! I haven’t been on in a long time! A BFN on FRER 11dpo and BFN this morning on a CB digi. Really thought this was my month even tho I’ve only had some cramping 😂 I think because this will be my first AF since the MMC I just found it easier to tell myself it would happen.

Anyway I found this thread and thought it might help some of you. It’s all about implantation and hcg levels x

@fafi congratulations that's lovely news, so glad little bean is growing nicely xx

@fafi aww that’s lovely! Congratulations ❤️

@MichT4 I am so sorry you're still in the unknown! AF alerted me to my CP so it all happened very quickly, I think if it was the case you'd know sooner rather than later! I think waiting to you get home to test is a good idea as you'll know for certain then. Fingers crossed it's just a slow show!x

@VP91x Glad to hear your pup is with a trainer! I am sure they're in good hands.x

I had my private scan today! I was dated 8+2 which is only a day off what we were expecting. We could see the heartbeat and all was looking healthy and on track!

After 2 losses over lockdown we are SO relieved, though now it feels real!

@MichT4 I know it will be hard with things as they are but try and enjoy what's left of your holiday, have your bubbles and keep your mind busy ❤️ xx

@Pugprincess That was my plan to dtd every day I get a flashy! I wanted to try and get 2 in when I get a static but I'm not sure how realistic that is as DH leaves the house before 6 for work and is normally exhausted when he gets home. Just going to try and keep covered through fertile week xx

@Tink20058 What a nice sight! I can't stand ironing it's the worst xx

My biggest achievement today by far!!! That ladies is the bottom of my ironing basket 🤣🤣🤣 it’s a very rare sight in this house xx

@VP91x Thankyou it is flying past now going to give it few more weeks and start buying things 😕 I’m crazy and started Christmas shopping last month I hate the ques at shops now so dread to think what they will be like in December and when I’m really big so thought would make a start, so glad you got the pup sorted anyone would be the same with a little one around I remember first few weeks of having puppy and we all had to sit with our feet up because he used to randomly attack feet 🤣 he is only a little shihtzu too I’m really weary of bigger dogs xx

@Northernsoul90 I would get one in a day while it’s flashing just incase. I know you might get flashies for awhile but that’s what I did. Then during peak twice a day 😅 I didn’t expect it to work cause I wondered if he would be producing less. Plus most the time it was quickies.

@MichT4 I can see lines still and I think they might be slightly more noticeable than the first time. Strange isn’t it. I hope you get some answers soon.

@VP91x so so glad the OH is back home and good the dogs gone for some training, hopefully he? Will return a different dog. Will always be scary having a big dog around little kids I think. But Bella will grow too. My MIL has a big female German shepherd and when she comes to my house I feel like I literally have a horse running around compared to my little dog 😂 my spotting yday was more beige in colour so fingers crossed it’s going away.
