Please tag anyone I’ve missed from the old thread.

I’m currently enjoying my first glass of wine in about 10 weeks. Will happily give up alcohol for a baby but no baby I need alcohol 😂

Really hope that’s the start of a BFP for you @Babyghirl let us know when you test in the morning.

@Annny27 Sorry it looks like AF has arrived.

@Nuggetlover27 Fingers crossed for a positive FW

I don't blame you @Babyghirl it's great to have them but when you've had bad experiences that waiting room brings them all back up.
Thank you @lozza2206 - fingers crossed for you xxx

@chali7
I knw wat u mean my doc still wanted me to go tomorrow to my scan I told her no I will do a test in two weeks to c if it's nagitive and go from there xx

chali7 · 07/02/2021 15:42

Thank you @Babyghirl - I'm should have a loyalty card for our EPU really.
I've never had a good outcome there though, which is always made worse without being allowed my OH to come with me. I'm praying this time its good news, but I hate going there and it makes me so anxious 😬 xx

chali7 · 07/02/2021 15:40

Hi @lozza2206 I'm not sure I can help much, as I'm also obsessed haha.

My history isn't great but in brief - I had a MMC in May 2020 with surgery in June. Followed by an ectopic pregnancy in September 2020. We started TTC again in December. The first cycle of TTC again I was as obsessed as I was last year. I had a faint positive which I think turned out to be a chemical pregnancy. For cycle 2 I decided not to track, and just go with the flow. I'm now around 5 weeks pregnant. My only advice from this really is just go with the flow - but I know its very hard and not easily done. I'm sorry for your losses and you're in the right place for advise the girls on this thread are lovely xx

Hey all 🥰

Wondering if I could join this chat for support... I resonate with absolutely everyone in this chat.

I am 24 years old and I came off the pill last March. We very casually started TTC and after some weird bleeding in June/July I got a BFP that sadly ended in a chemical pregnancy/early loss or whatever you wanna name it 😬
Once that had occurred, that is when I got obsessed! Once my cycle went back to normal in August, we went at it again.
I got my second BFP in the middle of November ... this sadly ended new year with a MMC and I had the surgical procedure on 7th Jan.

I know there is differing opinions on whether to start trying straight away or not. Well I am a woman possessed and we came to the decision we wanna go again.
I ovulated late for me (cd22) counting the day of my surgery as cd1. I am now sat here 9dpo and I am googling every single twinge, burp and ache. I spend my day seeing whether my mouth tastes metallic because that was the biggest symptom for me last time round.

Any advice/help would be appreciated!
❤️

@chali7
I have everything crossed that the scan is perfect for you. Xx

chali7 · 07/02/2021 13:53

@wideskies sorry you find yourself here. Flowers

@Babyghirl still crampy but its not unbearable so fingers crossed all is OK! I have a scan on Friday to check it isn't ectopic so just counting the days haha!

Yes @Annny27 so common but such a worry especially after such bad experiences.

Xxx

Babyghirl · 07/02/2021 13:12

@Annny27
I thought it was but bleeding picked up again this morning cramps where bad during the night but passed something this morning and pain has subsided so hoping it's coming to an end nw 🍀💚 hoping this is ur month girl 🍀💚

Babyghirl · 07/02/2021 13:10

@wideskies
Sorry you find yourself here but glad you found us for support, the fear of being pregnant again after a miscarriage never leaves you I have had 4 miscarriages and a cp nw just going through my last one nw no live births yet. Hoping next time is my lucky time I'm so ready for it nw. Xx

Annny27 · 07/02/2021 12:34

Hate when I type a message and then it disappears 😭😭

I am almost half way through tww (6dpo). Pretty busy with work next week so that will keep me sane!

@Babyghirl glad it seems to have come to and end! Did you do a test yet to see if its negative or waiting a week?

@chali7 cramps are soo soo common but still doesn't mean they don't feel scary :(

@nuggetlover27 any sign of AF yet?

@wideskies sorry to hear of your loss :( its still very up and down tbh I am not longer in so much grief about the miscarriage but its more grief about my infertility now!

Babyghirl · 07/02/2021 11:49

@chali7
I will tomorrow, how's ur cramping has it eased of any xx

wideskies · 07/02/2021 11:19

Hello all. We are about to embark on TTC after a miscarriage a year ago. We already have 2 DDs, experienced secondary infertility and I conceived DD2 after 2 years and surgery for endometriosis.

I was absolutely destroyed by the mc. I know how fortunate I am to have my girls, yet I can't explain it - it just broke me inside. Life carried on but the loss profoundly impacted my usual positive outlook on life. I am only now at the point of being ready to try again and the fear of another loss is at the front of my mind.

How do you cope with and keep that fear under control? Is there anything that helps? Thank you x

chali7 · 07/02/2021 11:06

@Babyghirl yes definately give them a call! Best to chase or sometimes they just sit on things xx

Babyghirl · 07/02/2021 11:04

@chali7
Should off been called in Jan but with covid it closed again for another 4 weeks so hoping to get an app this month sometime will give them a ring tomorrow to c what's happening xx

Babyghirl · 07/02/2021 11:02

Well bleeding picked right bck up again so obviously not over yet girls. I rolled abot the bed last nite in agony must off been my urters squeezing to try to expel everything, just want it to be over nw tbh was due to go bck to work tomara cause I thought it was all over but going to have to take another few days off can't risk going in and blood run out off me 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈. Xx

chali7 · 05/02/2021 21:11

Haha I know what you mean, I'm exactly the same. Although this week I have tried to slow down a little. I hope your app comes through soon! How long have you been waiting for an appointment? Xx

Babyghirl · 05/02/2021 21:06

@chali7
Sort off lol I'm ocd so like to be up doing things can't sit for to long, the oh shouts at me but knows to well wat I'm like 😂😂😂😂 I spend the days I was bleeding up keeping busy cause I think it moves things along quicker than lying abot, just hoping an app comes through for the fertility clinic soon and I have everything crossed for you xx

chali7 · 05/02/2021 20:52

Thank you @Babyghirl I am 5 weeks now, our local EPU are seeing me next week for a scan just to check its not ectopic again, which I'm relived about because thats my concern, that it'll happen again. Have you been taking time to rest up? Xx

Babyghirl · 05/02/2021 20:26

@chali7
Fingers crossed its just bean getting cosy for the nxt load off months. How far along r u now xx

chali7 · 05/02/2021 19:37

Pleased to hear this is coming to an end for you @Babyghirl and really sorry this has happened.

Babyghirl · 05/02/2021 19:05

Babyghirl · 04/02/2021 20:14

@fizzl
Im hoping 5th time lucky nw lol, but nt trying no more to I get answers 4 times is enough for anybody to go through this just hoping it's nearly over I'm drained with all the blood loss. So glad to hear your doing well and your we rainbow will be with u soon enough xx

Fizzl · 04/02/2021 20:03

@Annny27 i want to tell you guys but just wondering if anyone recognises me on here and I'll give it away?! I'm sure not...
were rubbish at keeping secrets too so the cat will be out the bag soon I'm sure!

@Babyghirl I'm so sorry you're going through this again 😔 it's so unfair!

@Nuggetlover27 thank you 💐 it's so hard when you're on the other side - I was always so happy for everyone but also really sad it wasn't me at the same time. If I had a crystal ball and could have seen this time last year where I'd be now it would have been so much easier. Sending you lots of positive thoughts 💐

Hope you are all keeping well - I'm really hoping you all get your rainbows now. You're all coping so well and you deserve this to be your time now 🌈

Babyghirl · 04/02/2021 12:18
