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

@PeanuttyButter all tests are negative. Just doing on now!

@PeanuttyButter I am on CD44
Periods due on 18th

@apwilso have you done any tests?

@SunnySideUp2020 where are you in your cycle?

I was convinced something was happening this week I felt tired and a bit different but I guess I am just getting desperate again after testing super negative 😑 or it must be the Swiss air.

I really wanna start properly trying again... baby is 8 months so a couple a month until I stop breastfeeding. Finally figured out my cycles which are 48 days long now.

How is everyone?

I'm having a nightmare! 2 days late on period had some spotting assumed period now it's stopped again. This originally started yesterday but now there's nothing😥

Well I'm 8dpo/CD23 today (BFN on IC) last month had a 24 day cycle back to normal but ovulated 2 days later this month so probably not due tomorrow. Been super stressed and teary up until after fertile week to be honest, couldn't cope with the pressure I was putting on myself. Not holding much hope for this month despite DTD enough especially as I'm starting with AF symptoms, cramping etc. I know I'm not out til I'm out but I dont want to get my hopes up and the fall be worse. Gonna try and not test now til Thursday if AF isn't here by then.

Hope everyone is trying to make the most of the festive season. Roll on 2022 I say!!

Not that I've noticed @apwilso but I only take folic acid and vitamin D and been taking it for about 2 years now so don't know any difference

I don't know if it's just me but does anyone find that their vitamins delay their period? Everytime I keep on top of my vitamins they delay my period. I'm currently a day late which many symptoms but not convinced I will be as this month I was ill with covid so don't think we got it in enough and not been pregnant since MC in April! Not sure if anyone else is the same?

@Kelb79 I'm 6 or 8dpo today (double peak this month) and it was my works do on Saturday. I had 2 drinks, did a test before I went which was bfn so felt comfortable having a couple. Although I get that it's completely personal. Im trying to live my life the best I can do that TTC doesn't take over.

@Kelb79 oh really I was using normal lube and I am not sure if that's sperm friendly so my gp told me about this lube see if it works xx

@Sweetbabydust1989 I conceived using conceive plus for the first time - obviously a very probable coincidence but you never know!!!

Are you ladies all prepped for Christmas? I’m panicking, it’s totally crept up on me!! 🤣
I’ve been sidetracked with MC, crazy work and holiday planning…. Haven’t even put my tree up!!! SOOOO not me!
Wanted to go it today but got staff party for where I teach yoga and Zumba so gonna go enjoy myself!
Although in a real quandary as to whether to have a drink… 2DPO, BD’d at all the right times….. always a chance but I don’t want to get to Christmas when AF is due having not enjoyed anything at all and then getting my period and getting totally depressed 🤔🤔

Took symptom spotting to a new level yesterday - 1DPO and my boobs were on fire all day!! 🤣🤣 now I know I’m going mad!!!

@PeanuttyButter
Standing waiting was like going through my test again 😂😂😂😂😂 xxx

@Babyghirl always a good day when when our car passes it's MOT. It always feels faster even though it's not possible 😂

Well car passed mot yeha lol, period left the building well all but brown staining gs hope all you ladies r having a good weekend xx

@PeanuttyButter it's definitely af dam oh well I can have a nice few bottles over xmas now and enjoy the festivities without panicking.. I brought some of that conceive plus lube to have a go of. I had a lovely talk with my gp well broke down to her and she believes my stress and anxiety is not helping she went through all my post op notes and smear test results and said because they're clear there is no reason I shouldn't catch again considering it's happened twice this year maybe the ectopics are just nesting in the back of my head xx

@Sweetbabydust1989 ah that's crap. Like you said least you can have a stress free month and don't need to worry about hiding the fact you're not having a little drink.
Will still keep my fingers crossed AF stays fully away x

@PeanuttyButter I think it's my period nothing on liner but when I wipe it's pink/red so af is coming I am all good nice to start a stress free cycle xx

@Sweetbabydust1989 I'd say pink discharge is a good thing especially if it's not normal for you! Any spotting I've had with pregnancy has always been pink and only when wiping. Got my fingers crossed for you.

So I am 13dpo period due either tomorrow or Monday light cramps but when I wipe I have noticed pink discharge I am confused to what this could be would post a picture but not sure if anyone wants to see my body fluids 🙈😂 xx

We can @PeanuttyButter if you ever need a rant or a chat let me know!!

Big love ladies, it’s a really crappy time of year to try and deal with due dates ❤️❤️❤️
I’m sad enough going into Christmas not being pregnant like I was expecting 😵‍💫
I hope you manage to find some happiness and enjoyment 🙏🏼🙏🏼

I’m 1DPO today - BD’d on days 8, 10 and 11 (OV day), might try for later but shattered!!!

not feeling the love for TWW leading up to Christmas at all!!!! Go away for a few weeks on the 29th so if we don’t get our BFP I’m having a month off from tracking abs testing and going to just try to enjoy myself 🙏🏼

@apwilso we can support each other through this

@PeanuttyButter I completely get it. See no one really knows my due date or the fact i had a MC but my best friend knows but we're not the most sympathetic with each other well we are but she doesn't really get it!

@PeanuttyButter I tested at 9dpo & 10dpo both negative I did them super early 🙈🤣 I am now 12dpo I can sort of feel her coming then it goes but my boobs have been so sore but that comes and goes i am due on Sunday so if nothing comes will take a test on Monday xx

@apwilso I'm dreading it. I'm trying to get into the Xmas spirit but really can't. I'd hoped to be pregnant for my due date too.
I'm so glad I have this group, nobody in real life seems to care that it's supposed to be my due date and I'm supposed to be on mat leave now. Means a lot that you remember my due date @babyghirl

@sweetbabydust1989 it's promising that AF hasn't come yet. I don't know how you can resist testing that's some willpower
