🦕🦕 The dinosaur crew - part 8 ttc after mc 🦕🦕

@Babyghirl think it's a chemical tbh. Had a squinter on Saturday but it's gone now and I think after I've walked about today AF will be here as TMI passed a dark clot when I went to the toilet this morning. See what the GP says today

@PeanuttyButter
Aww how frustrating but it's also a good sign your lp has got longer thou if you look at it that way xx

Still no AF, pink at my cervix though it's been like that for 5 days. Supposed to have a GP appointment tomorrow for an examination after AF had finished and it's not even started!! So frustrated. Also just set call the midwife to record for Xmas day. I remember watching it back in April and when it finished I thought the next time I watch it I might have had my baby.

Why am I not getting notified on this page anymore lol,

@Annny27
I'm cd13 had thrush gs all clear now thou so started dtd last night and omg thought he was hitting my right Overy so I don't know if it was ovulation or not lol. How r you doing 💚

@ELM7 Sending love ❤️ that’s a tough anniversary!! Hope you can enjoy this Christmas a bit better, I can absolutely imagine how much that must’ve wiped out Christmas for you last year!
My MC was nearly 3 months ago now and I still can’t get at all festive 😵‍💫

So I’ve felt sick again all day today…. Totally not symptom spotting at all 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️😵‍💫

@Annny27 thank you for remembering- it was a year today we found out our little bean wasn’t growing as it should be, Really trying to get into the festive spirit this year as was so miserable last year.

@Annny27 I am thank you recovered well and can smell and taste again! Thanks for asking xx

@Annny27 yup…. I’m thinking Christmas Eve too….. either kick off Christmas the best way EVER or hit the rum early!! 🤣🤣

I felt sick as a dog all day yesterday…. At 8DPO that obviously had me in symptom spotting hell 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️ I can’t remember what it was like pre TTC when everything wasn’t a potential pregnancy symptom!! My OH thinks I’m a total hypochondriac- I’ll mention the symptom without really pointing out it could be a symptom as he’s always telling me to take my head away from it… watched pot and all that!! 🤣

I’m supposed to be going away for my much needed holiday in 10 days…. But it looks like that’s likely to be messed up by another lockdown!!! Meh!! That’ll be gutting 😐

Just trying to get into the festive spirit and hope for the best 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

@PeanuttyButter really hoping AF gets the hell on with it and out the way for you 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Then you can try to enjoy Christmas a bit. It’s horrible when our bodies mess us around 😐 How are you doing? xX

@SunnySideUp2020 not yet no. I'm CD28 so 4 days late and 13dpo. All BFN. Spotting has started again this morning so hoping today is the day so we can start thinking about next fertile week lol

Did you get your period @PeanuttyButter ?

I am on CD4. Mine arrived a bit early...

@Annny27 yup! 7DPO!
I’m actually pretty distracted for a change so not symptom spotting….. but that also means no symptoms!! Meh!!! 😐
Anything your end?? 🙏🏼
AF due on Christmas Day is a real double edged sword!! Incredibly magical if it were a BFP but extra crappy for the usual BFN!!
Are you gonna test??? I’m undecided……. 🤔

@PeanuttyButter ❤️❤️❤️ Big love huni xX if I were to put a bet on it I’d say your period is being messed up by the obvious crappy headspace that you’re likely to be in right now. Due date looming is bad enough on its own but more pregnancy announcements?! 😫😫 that’s utterly crap!! And at Christmas ffs!!
I’m praying no-one around me announces, I know it’ll tip me right over the edge and I haven’t got the added factor of should’ve been date yet.
Take care of yourself, have lots of very well deserved treats and make sure you’ve got support and love around you xxxxxxx
It sucks but we’ve got to just ride the storm and hope for sunny days ahead. Lots of love xxxxxx

Guys my period isn't coming, I know it's coming (when you know you know) but it's just not progressing. Got awful cramps like I usually get before but it's just not coming, it wants to delay next month as much as possible. I'm CD 26 of a usual 24 day cycle, BFN this morning and every morning since 7dpo lol.
Add another pregnancy announcement from someone to that and I'm feeling fantastic...

How's everyone else? All ready for xmas?

@SunnySideUp2020 that's what I'm thinking. I've stopped doing them but decided now I will opk test from this cycle onwards as it isn't working. Amazing news for you on that cycle. I will ring them in the new year if nothing happens!

Well I'm cd24/9dpo and AF spotting has started. Which means AF will be here tomorrow morning right on time. Gutted isn't the word.

Hey everyone, how are you all?

@PeanuttyButter been thinking of you lovely xxx

I’m 5DPO and trying to just relax and enjoy Christmas but I’ve just got zero interest!
I had a few drinks at our staff party on Sunday (2DPO) and I had a really lovely time and I definitely needed to relax and have some fun but now I’m just stuck on the fact that I could’ve messed up our chances this month! 🤦🏼‍♀️🔫

@Sweetbabydust1989 so the 3 things that we’re different when I conceived we’re conceive plus, relaxing (it was my birthday and we were away for the weekend) and having fun (I drank far too much prosecco but I definitely smiled and laughed more than I had for a while thanks to work and TTC stress!!)
So god knows which (if any, or all?) it was but it seemed to be the right combo!! 🤣

@apwilso initially I did day 21 progesterone if I remember well. And I tested thyroid and for some clotting disorder. All came back good.

After 7 months DH did semen analysis and a urologist MOT. We both had antibiotics for ureaplasma.
I had ultrasound, day 3 bloods where they test a range of hormones at the beg of the cycle and a full blood test which showed too low Vit D and iron which were essential to conceive. I also had a hysterescopy and which showed small polyps in the uterus (she removed them). Was put on a high dose of folic acid, iron and vit D and we conceived the month after.

@apwilso
Having covid could well be the reason for the delay. If you were ill then ovulation might have been later...

I also found my cyles getting a couple of days longer after my MC. But because of that it was really essential to do opks to really pinpoint ovulation time.
I remember us DTD like crazy thinking it's fertile window and then peak opk being 4 days later and we are drained (literally!), I almost have thrush from all the sex and just overall annoyed that ovulation was late 😑

@PeanuttyButter think I'm going to have to. I went from being regular to having covid and now there delayed but I always fine I'm delayed when I'm on vitamins as well so my heads all over now!

When I got pregnant last time I'd been on the tablets they had delayed my period so I come off then and then the next month I was pregnant. So I really don't know anymore what's best to do!

@apwilso it's crap isnt it. I caught covid in January and that made my cycle longer by a week and the one after by just slightly less. In fact last month was the first time it's been normal.
You could always go to the GP and get them to do bloods to see if you are ovulating.

@PeanuttyButter negative ofc😫😫 spotting has completely stopped at this point!

Feeling so deflated. If I'm not pregnant it's pushing back my own few weeks me and my boyfriend have together over Christmas so I'm absolutely gutted. My periods were regular at around 30/31 days and now I'm on day 36. I think I'm going to book into the doctors now at this point as it's been 8 months since my miscarriage and nothing seems to be moving along! Next month I will be fully testing as I stopped doing that as well. I had covid this month so don't know if it's that that's delayed my period😑

Anyone offer any advice if to go to the doctors. Attached my past 6 cycles as well. Just so upset tonight. Sorry everyone x

@apwilso how did you get on? x
