This is our first cycle ttc #1 after a mmc at 12 weeks in March. Finding the wait so hard! I’ve been having niggly cramps and a pulling feeling for a couple of days now. I’m determined not to test as I really don’t want to see a bfn. Did anyone have cramps before getting a bfp?

I was actually supposed to be having bloods as they wouldn't do my CT scan on my kidney until they had confirmed I wasn't pregnant but haven't heard a thing since.
AF is here, so heavy aswell so I'm assuming it's just abit of a crappy one after mmc, atleast I know where I am at if I want to ttc next month
Only problem with that if I do fall pregnant is my due date will be around my daughters birthday so It will be an expensive month 🤣
Worse things in the world though!

I agree with you on the thirsty it's like nothing seems to make me feel hydrated I'm drinking twice as much! Could your doctor nor do your bloods to maybe try and find out what's going on? I'm still having a few spots of brown discharge had it for 4 days now AF is due in 4 days bfn on free this morning, fingers crossed for you though there's stil hope until she shows

lelrx · 28/08/2021 20:56

I guess you put alot of pressure on yourself when you are tracking so actually just letting it be probably really helped!
It could well be! We BD on the 16th so if I went off that date it would be 12dpo but could have been after!
I just don't feel right, feel really really tired and abit sick, now constipated after having looser BM the past week and just feel like I want to cry
I think because I've had BFN I'm assuming it is something else and now have convinced myself that I'm dying (obviously that's the only other logical reason)
Also super thirsty!
I'm just trying to think rationally and maybe after not having a period for 9 weeks then miscarrying that my hormones are just knocking me about abit before AF
I just want to know what's going on 😭 xx

@lelrx thank you! It’s starting to sink in now. If it helps I don’t know for sure my ovulation day as me and my DP didn’t want the stress of checking my temp or using OPKs. We were just using premom app as a guide. It could be an implantation bleed and you ovulated later than you think maybe?
Keeping my fx for you and le me know how you get on! Smile x

Wow congratulations
@littlemissc93 ! So pleased for you!
I've had some more pink/ red watery discharge and light cramping today but that's the only bit since yesterday
Did another test today but I think it flooded because it was all a shade of light blue/grey so I'm going to wait not and see what happens with the bleeding before testing again
Still assuming I'm out though due to not actually knowing a rough ovulation or Af due date xx

@Amy7912 I wish I had your positivity! It will definitely happen when it’s meant to abs I’m sure it won’t be long. Fx for next month and your bfp! Thank you, I’m hoping this time round goes smoothly x

Amy7912 · 28/08/2021 10:18

I'm spotting again and stomach cramps I'm ok accepting it's not this month, it will happen when it's meant too, so happy for you though! Happy and healthy 9 months to you! X

@Danishbuttercookie it all sounds really promising but I totally understand how you’re feeling. Fx you get your bfp when you’re ready to test and let us know how you get on. x

@Amy7912 thank you, I’m shocked because this was the first month of trying and I’ve been so negative about it! I don’t know too much about evap lines but try not to worry. It’s so so hard but try and wait until af is due. In my first pregnancy back in January I tested at 11dpo and it was negative. I only got a positive at 14dpo at the earliest. You’re not out yet!

Amy7912 · 28/08/2021 09:50

Congrats!! 🥳🥳 I have been doing my dpo wrong I'm only today 9dpo did a clear blue early detection it was negative come back to through it in the bin and it looks positive but it has to be an evap as it's been left there, absolutely gutted, so so happy for you!!

So I caved this morning and took a test because I was so convinced af was arriving with the cramps….
I’m in shock! xx

Danishbuttercookie · 28/08/2021 06:54

Fx for all of you! My AF is now 7 days late but I’m still trying my best not to test as I can’t handle the thought of seeing a BFN. After my 2 mmcs my doctor told me to wait to test 2 weeks after my missed period so I’m holding out as long as I can. I keep getting cramps and twinges, trying to keep myself busy to distract from snapping and POAS. Ironically the last few months I’ve been symptom spotting like crazy every month and have been disappointed. This month I was convinced no symptoms then I’m late 🤦🏾‍♀️

Amy7912 · 27/08/2021 22:20

I'm not due AF for another 5 days the spotting has stopped again now it's driving me crazy Hmm definitely don't feel pregnant this month thought just waiting her arrival now, hope she doesn't come for you!

Amy7912 · 27/08/2021 22:18

I'm the exact same some spotting after a BM but now it's hardly nothing but I do feel I'm out this month, when are you due Af

lelrx · 27/08/2021 20:24

I think when you want to get pregnant you look out for every single symptom but usually I wouldn't take any notice
Fingers crossed for you and if anything changes for me I will let yous know! Xx

@lelrx @Amy7912 oh no! That’s so upsetting and I’m so sorry af has appeared/on the way. I never thought it would be this stressful or upsetting to fall. Fx for next month!
Af hasn’t appeared for me yet but I’ve had cramps on and off today so I think she’ll appear for me too. xx

OP posts:
lelrx · 27/08/2021 19:43

Okay so just went for a BM
Always seems to bring any blood out if there is any
Had some light pinky/red mixed with abit of clear CM
Assuming I'm out now
Feeling really deflated, had twinges each side all day too so must be AF coming xx

Amy7912 · 27/08/2021 12:49

I don't think I need to I've just sat on the toilet and a drop of blood very loudly fell into the toilet I'm only 9dpo at must be coming early for me. Fingers crossed for you all though Grin

@lelrx I wish I was back at work so I had the distraction! I might test tomorrow, then I’ll be a day late. I’ve still got mild cramps, I’m eating a lot more than I normally do and I’m so tired! Have you had anymore symptoms? xx

Littlemissc93 · 27/08/2021 12:42

@Amy7912 not yet, I’m too scared incase it’s another negative! I might cave tomorrow though. Are you going to test today?

OP posts:
lelrx · 27/08/2021 11:40

I think I'm going to leave my testing until tomorrow now I'm working all day today which takes my mind off it and then got a day out planned tomorrow with my DH, DD and Granny in law so will probably do one tomorrow eve which will be 12dpo (guesstimate)

Do any of yous plan on testing soon, any more symptoms? Xx

Amy7912 · 27/08/2021 11:13

How exciting have you tested today??

Littlemissc93 · 27/08/2021 08:46

@Amy7912 I’m 13dpo, af is due today!
@lelrx I’m not sure how it works after mmc either, it’s taken a while for my cycle to get back to normal. Let’s hope you do have a lucky surprise! I hope the kidney stones clear up soon, they sound so painful for you.
It’s frustrating pms and early pregnancy symptoms are so similar!
It could’ve been implantation and it all sounds really encouraging! Are you going to test? xx

OP posts:
lelrx · 26/08/2021 21:27

Yes it is still a little early, I'm counting it from the day we actually BD too so tonight would make me 10dpo providing I ovulated the night we had sex
I have no idea how it works after a mmc though, I guess I would only know if I used opks or waiting for my af to arrive
We didn't plan on getting pregnant asap so would be really lucky if we did, I do have kidney stones and I passed one this morning so symptoms could just have been from that but most of them aren't something kidney stones would cause possibly the nausea and back pain but I am very familiar with the pain it causes and its the other side and nothing like that do fingers crossed!

I'm just hoping the pinky CM was implantation (felt a fair bit if cramping before and after so hopefully!)

Xx

Amy7912 · 26/08/2021 21:15

That sounds promising! How many dpo are you? Smile
