@amyannx Hey, how are you doing?? Still no midwife contact/appointment for me! Called them on Monday, asked whether they'd received my forms, she checked my file and they have.. she said the triage midwife is going through everyone by gestation based on LMP so they have a system of how they do it and someone will be in touch 🤷🏼‍♀️ she said it might be a letter but it could be a phone call if they're pushed for time! Xx

Lollipop25 · 27/05/2021 11:59

@Capricorn8990 I can see a vvvfl but honestly just do another one😊 I wouldn't count that one.

@Willow1982 morning! Nope not tested today but had a bit of spotting and BFN yesterday so pretty sure AF is on the way! It’s my first cycle TTC so not really sure what to expect but just going to see what happens next month! Sorry to hear about your MC :( xx

Willow1982 · 27/05/2021 11:27

@dunkedbiscuit sorry to hear about that, I found MN has helped with my worries after MC,lots of advice from people as I hadn’t told anyone apart from husband and mum, sometimes it’s good to chat to people that have experienced the same, fingers crossed for a lucky June for you xx🍀

Willow1982 · 27/05/2021 11:21

@1stimer16 my AF is due today too, hasn’t arrived yet, I tested today sadly a BFN, I think I’m about 10dpo, have you tested this morning?xx

Willow1982 · 27/05/2021 11:19

@Twochews78 tested this morning, don’t know why, as I don’t have any symptoms, BFN not surprised at all, 10dpo. AF due today, but a no show as yet!! I have serious PMS though I literally wanted to kill my husband yesterday, so pretty certain AF will be here any day!!😂
My MC was beginning of March I was about 6 wks, I got my BFP on 16th Feb and started spotting to bleeding on 28th Feb, so it was all quite quick, it took 3 full weeks from last day of bleeding to get a BFN which was hard still seeing the BFPs, I let my body have a break and had my April AF then that was the 1st month back trying, so I’m counting this month as cycle 2.
Good luck with your fresh new cycle, I will try and talk you out of early testing....but we all know it’s impossible when you feel those symptoms!!xx

dunkedbiscuit · 27/05/2021 07:22

@1stimer16 no you're definitely not out yet! I got pregnant last cycle (sadly didn't stick) but didn't get a positive test until 1 day after AF was due. I've heard others say similar who have then had healthy pregnancies

Capricorn8990 · 27/05/2021 06:59

Heya all, I don't think I had enough wee this morning lol.. because the second line isn't that dark but can anyone see a vvfl? Xx

Twochews78 · 27/05/2021 06:50

@Willow1982 that sounds great! A wee break during the tww. I’m gonna try and keep it as chilled as possible this time. And if anyone hears of me testing early, they have permission to wrestle me to the ground! Good luck for today. I’m sorry about you MC :( when did that happen and far along where you? I hope you don’t mind me asking. xx

And good luck @1stimer16 and to anyone else waiting! xx

Bundaberg84 · 26/05/2021 23:04

@1stimer16 fingers crossed for you 🤞

1stimer16 · 26/05/2021 23:02

@Bundaberg84 ok thank you! I’ll see what happens tomorrow if AF appears then at least I know for sure :)

Bundaberg84 · 26/05/2021 22:58

@1stimer16 as implantation can happen as late as 12dpo it's possible that it wouldn't show up yet. You'll only know for sure at around 14dpo I think.

1stimer16 · 26/05/2021 22:51

@Bundaberg84 14/15th May was dates of possible ovulation, so either 11/12 DPO I think?

1stimer16 · 26/05/2021 22:49

@Bundaberg84 I don’t do temp checks but app says it could've been 14th or 15th, just think this close to AF it may have shown a faint line at least?

gimmeavino · 26/05/2021 22:21

@Sophiederuges ooh I haven't but just googled it - worth a go!

Bundaberg84 · 26/05/2021 22:20

@1stimer16 it depends on how many dpos you are?

1stimer16 · 26/05/2021 22:04

I’m due AF tomorrow, did a FRER today and got a BFN. Is it likely to get a BFP or should I assume this month is out for me now?

Willow1982 · 26/05/2021 22:03

@Twochews78 my last two periods since MC have been really heavy, chocolate is definitely the answer!!
Haha the famous peeing vessel, 😂 hopefully you get to dtd at the right time, you’ll just have to send everyone out for dinner!!
We are due to be away just after next fertile week...we said we will be grateful if the break!!xx

Twochews78 · 26/05/2021 21:40

@Willow1982 I get a spotty chin too 🤣 that’s good that you chatted to the gp, yeah I was reading a thread on a FB group this morning and was hearing about a couple of women with long Covid etc. I’ve got mine booked for Wednesday. Some months you just feel like that, however there’s still hope!

I’m grand, just super busy with work and need things to be a bit calmer and less stress next month. Pretty heavy period too. So stuffing my face with chocolate. We’ll be at my husbands parents on my fertile week, can’t imagine much will happen with lots of family around and 2 kids sleeping in the bedroom. Will have to leave my peeing vessel at home too 🤣 xx

Willow1982 · 26/05/2021 21:13

@Twochews78 I’m ok, came so close to testing today! I’m thinking 9dpo so still early, app says AF due tomorrow and that will be cycle day 29 so that would match last month! Apart from a spotty chin 😂 I don’t have symptoms at all for either!! I might test tomorrow, I’m so convinced I’m not getting my BFP Iv booked my vaccine for Friday!! Rang the GP today for re-assurance, feel it would be better to be protected than not! If I am lucky this month it would still be so early, just hoping for the best all round!!!
How are you, I expect just enjoying having the break from poas, new cycle coming your way xx

Confused678866 · 26/05/2021 20:06

@Sophiederuges Congratulations 🥳 xx

Lollipop25 · 26/05/2021 20:03

Congrats @Sophiederuges 🤗 here's hoping for a happy healthy pregnancy.
@dunkedbiscuit really hope you get a BFP quickly 🤞

Lollipop25 · 26/05/2021 20:01

Thanks @Twochews78 and @Willow1982 I'm still waiting, spotting stopped fairly quickly so 🤷🏼‍♀️. Will give it til Saturday and maybe test then if AF hasn't come🙈

Have you heard of seed cycling @gimmeavino

I was doing it before my mmc. Didn’t help with the mmc but it helped with my cycle (it has been a bit disrupted during autumn 2020).

gimmeavino · 26/05/2021 19:28

@dunkedbiscuit yep tested twice a day for the last 10 days! I never got a peak OPK though so not sure when I ovulated 🤷🏻‍♀️ temping, low carb and grapefruit juice next cycle see if it regulates things a bit (if next cycle ever starts)
