So, sorry if this is tmi lol but DH was getting a bit fed up of DTD during my 'fertile window' so we've changed it slightly this time around. I'm not sure if it will be fruitful or not but I've given him permission for us to have several 'quickies!' where he doesn't have to concentrate on my 'journey' whilst DTD so that he can relax and enjoy himself more and he absolutely loves it! I am really enjoying seeing how excited he's getting so quickly lol xxxx

H0peing · 18/08/2021 14:52

@Annny27 Glad that you and hubby are enjoying a more relaxed approach this month! I've stopped doing my BBT this month and definitely feel a lot more relaxed without that! Xx

H0peing · 18/08/2021 14:43

@Bundaberg84 of course you are welcome. Sorry for your losses but it's good that you feel ready to try again and I really hope that your next pregnancy will be a successful one. Lots of love Xx

kiwi17 · 18/08/2021 14:10

@Bundaberg84 you are definitely welcome here! A loss is a loss at any stage and there are other ladies here who have had cps and ectopic. Glad you're feeling ready to go again and a break did you good 😁

Bundaberg84 · 18/08/2021 13:52

Hi all! I don't know if I fit in here as I didn't have a miscarriage per se, but had two chemicals since January and also an ectopic that ended in the removal of my right tube in June. Crazy that my cycle was back to normal after just one month. Didn't actively try last month as we were in holidays and I wanted to just enjoy the time and not think of anything TTC related. Got my AF last Friday and I think I'm ready for this month TTC again. Clear Blue fertility monitor just got new batteries and is ready to go.

kiwi17 · 18/08/2021 12:26

@Annny27 well we did a relaxed cycle last month but it annoyed me that I didn't know when I ovulated 😂 so I got opks again which I find helpful just to know it definitely happened! Plus at the scan she said I was about to so good to know things are working even if no bfp. Yeah I reckon ovulation today or tomorrow probably - yesterday was our anniversary so dh enjoyed that 😂 going on holiday tomorrow though so hopefully that'll help! Cd15 for me today how about you? We must have synced up again!

Annny27 · 18/08/2021 12:21

Morning ladies :) this is the first cycle that I haven't tracked when we are dtd, used LH sticks or recorded cm! I obviously still now I am roughly ovulating at the moment because of my CM. But it's so refreshing not knowing what cycle day I am on and when I have peaked etc! And my hubby said that dtd felt less pressure too so that's a good sign :)

@babyghirl you are quite far into the tww then! Not long now untill your appointment ♥️♥️

@emigoiko definitely progressing and the clear blue one is lovely and dark!!! Congratulations lovely

@h0peing thanks lovely! Yep aspirin might be a good shout for you to take :) 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@peanuttybutter yes thats the best way to be I think, we all get a little bit taken back when there a pregnancy announcement but their happiness doesnt mean we wont get that one day too :) definitely the hardest time of my life to date

@kiwi17 are you roughly ovulating at the moment as well then?

@Babyghirl least you have the appointment to focus on, sorry the witch is coming. I tell her she's not welcome but she's a CF 😁. I'm trying to concentrate on work see me through to the weekend.

Babyghirl · 18/08/2021 11:53

@PeanuttyButter
I'm cd23 and have a feeling I'm having a 24 day cycle this month like last month as I feel very periodie lol. Its coming on her broom stick got my app on the 15th of Sept so looking forward to that xx

PeanuttyButter · 18/08/2021 11:38

Where are you up to @Babyghirl ?
I'm CD21 of usual (pre MMC) 24 day cycle but last 2 periods haven't really been proper periods. Roughly 8dpo. Not holding much hope as had my usual cd20 pre AF spotting yesterday and no signs to say that AF isn't on her way. Will test Sunday if I make it that far

Babyghirl · 18/08/2021 10:15

@HOpeing
Yea I'm taking mine to have to get more thou.
@Emigoiko
Congratulations that's a great line for a clear blue 💚

H0peing · 18/08/2021 10:13

@Annny27 Sorry you've been feeling down recently. It's good that you're ovulating soon though so hopefully this will be your time xxxxxxx

EmiGoiko · 18/08/2021 10:09

Thanks so much @PeanuttyButter and everyone. I'm trying to breathe. I'm going to stop testing and stop Googling. What will be will be. You're right, stressing is making it worse.

Hope everyone else is doing OK?

H0peing · 18/08/2021 10:05

@babyghirl I think I'll try taking the aspirin after dinner in the evening. Will probably get a cute little pill box and just have to remember to set a reminder on my phone because I take everything else in the morning and my memory's not great lol xxx

H0peing · 18/08/2021 10:00

@PeanuttyButter thanks xxxx

H0peing · 18/08/2021 09:57

@EmiGoiko Congratulations love!!! So excited for you! It all looks very good to me! X

Hopefully there will be successful pregnancies for all of us soon xxxx

PeanuttyButter · 18/08/2021 08:51

@EmiGoiko try and be positive. You are only 14dpo today right? And AF was only due yesterday. With mine I only got a squinter when I was a day late! I know it's easier said than done but try and just ride it all. Ride the emotions and what will be will be. Stressing doesn't help anything (although I'd be exactly the same). Hugs xx

EmiGoiko · 18/08/2021 08:51

So I decided to pee on my special clear blue and got this very strong positive. Also a 25miu so I guess I should be reassured. My husband has told me to get a grip and step away from the tests. He is probably right

I know I'm crazy, but here is an update bottom one is today. I would expect to see more progression between today and last couple days. I have a bad feeling tbh, this is what happened last time when I lost it.

Babyghirl · 17/08/2021 22:09

@Emigoiko
Looks like a good progression to me 🍀
@PeanuttyButter
I'm hoping nxt one is my sticky one 4 miscarriages and 1 cp l8r it's got to be my turn lol.

PeanuttyButter · 17/08/2021 22:05

@EmiGoiko I had awful wind in the early days of my pregnancy. Those lines look like they are progressing nicely xx

@Babyghirl fingers crossed it happens again and it sticks x

EmiGoiko · 17/08/2021 18:02

Top one 10 dpo. Bottom one today 13dpo. ALL FMU. I'm worrying if they are dark enough, obbsesed with the progression because I've been there where they haven't progressed then I lost it.

I'm saving a clear blue for end of the week.

@Emigoiko
I love looking at positive test let us c lol x

EmiGoiko · 17/08/2021 17:21

@PeanuttyButter due on AF today. Did another test this morning which was marginally darker. (Driving myself mad testing). But I woke in the night with awful stomach pains and my stomach is tender to touch today. I think it may be wind (sorry tmi) which after frantic googling seems to be common, so trying not to freak out. Trying to be positive that this may be a pregnancy sympton - I didn't have any symptoms with the miscarriages beyond mild cramps (which I've also been having).

@babyghirl fingers crossed for you, sounds like September is your month!
