Silly Symptom Spotting

Opinions needed. Driving my self insane.
I'm cycle day 17 today and was expecting to get my peak but no such luck. I had EWCM Cycle day 9 which I thought was too early for ovulation but we dtd anyway just in case.
I have nausea, tender boobs and woke up last night in a cold sweat so my hormones are definitely doing something. I had spotting for two days cycle day 13,14.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who would be thinking I could possibly be pregnant. Logical rational me knows it's likely due to my peak being right around the corner but I can't help but convince myself it must be pregnancy hormones 🤦🏻‍♀️

@Amberley90 I'm sorry you feel like that.
Trying to conceive is the hardest thing I've ever been through and there isn't enough support for families going through it xx

I'm so sorry to hear what you have been through. I'm glad it helped you to have the referral. I hope you are well xxx

@Amberley90 yeah I always feel like that when it finally comes if it is late for whatever reason (I'm never regular)
How long have you been trying, ask your GP to refer you? I was referred initially before my first baby after trying for 2 years and was found to endometriosis- had it operated on and fell within 6 weeks of the opp
This time I've been referred because of recurrent miscarriages 4 of my last 5 cycles. I've got an apppintment in 3 weeks with consultant and have been taking aspirin since I ovulated as I've read that can be something they advise for recurrent miscarriages

Speak to your GP I felt better just for having the referral xxx

@positiveovernegative
I'm on my period now but at least I know. Not knowing has been getting me down. I really want to see a gynaecologist or family planning. I would like to find out more. How are you? xxx

@Riversun12345 @positiveovernegative I did a MomMed test a couple of days ago which was negative and this morning a FRER was also negative.
I'm so sorry to hear that @positiveovernegative I hope a Gynaecologist is able to help. I am also thinking about being referred to a Gynaecologist or a family planning clinic xx

@Riversun12345 ❤️

Hoping gynaecologist has some answers. I've been reading about progesterone and aspirin in recurrent miscarriages so wondering if maybe this is what they'll implement xx

Hey all,

@Amberley90 definitely do a test FRER should be fine to use.

Unfortunately I started bleeding very heavily at 4am 15dpo and bled until Sunday. Took a test today and BFN so another chemical. I'm waiting to hear back regarding a referral to gynae.

Amberley90 · 19/10/2021 15:48

If this FRER isn't clear then I might try ClearBlue x

Amberley90 · 19/10/2021 15:47

Thank you! xx

Km12345 · 19/10/2021 15:43

@Amberley90 good luck !! I used just a normal clear blue one!! The cycle before I was obsessed with frers but I got my BFP with my firsr born on a clear blue so I had to try it this time 😅🤦‍♀️

Amberley90 · 19/10/2021 14:56

@Km12345 I definitely will and I'll post on here too. What test did you get your BFP? I only have a FRER and MomMed. Thinking of getting some from Boots. I've been thinking I'm unwell so I have taken anti sickness tablets. Shall I stop doing that? xx

Km12345 · 19/10/2021 14:17

@Amberley90 I would defo do a test! Especially with the sickness x

Amberley90 · 19/10/2021 14:14

I was also vomiting yesterday and had hardly eaten or been able to drink either x

Amberley90 · 19/10/2021 14:12

@Km12345 I will take a test tomorrow morning. I haven't had a vaccine recently but I am due my booster vaccination in a few days xx

Km12345 · 19/10/2021 14:03

@Amberley90 maybe do a test just to make sure! But could be ovulation bleeding ? I've had it before but tbh it's never been more than spotting for a day or 2 🤔 have you had the covid vaccine recently? As that defo made my cycles a bit loopy

Amberley90 · 19/10/2021 12:52

@Km12345 I'm glad all is well. That must have been scary. I'm so happy for you xx
I have a question for you both.

The first few days of October I had AF but less than two weeks later I had brown and red bleeding. I think the brown blood could be breakthrough bleeding but I'm not sure as it's heavier than usual and has lasted four days. I also think I ovulated the day before I started bleeding again. I don't suppose either of you have had similar? Should I take a test or is there no point?
@positiveovernegative How have you been?

Km12345 · 19/10/2021 12:21

@Amberley90 all good thank you. Ended up having to go for a scan the other day due to some bleeding but all is well thankfully ! Although they dated me a week behind what I thought I was 😥

Amberley90 · 19/10/2021 11:05

How are you both? @positiveovernegative and @Km12345 I hope all is well xx

Amberley90 · 12/10/2021 13:19

@Km12345 Congratulations! xx
