@Annny27

My firs pregnancy i was convinced it was AF coming.... 😬
I know testing got boring but hope this is a good sign 💕💕

Annny27 · 29/11/2021 11:11

I am 15dpo and feeeeeels like AF is about about arrive. Not done any tests yet but also pretty sure she is coming based on how my tummy and boobs are feeling.

@kelb79 sorry lovely :( I was 3 months ttc and then got pregnant in Sept 2019, mmc at 11 weeks then its been 2 years since and nothing (had a chemical about 6months ago). So you might be the other way round to me having an easier time after miscarriage with fertility! Hopefully

@babyghirl how are the pups? Hope they are doing well- when do they leave?

@peanuttybutter yep I always like to dtd as soon as periods over just to get some sperm inside incase I ovulate earlier 😂 the sexiness of ttc 👀

I knew it was coming but it still hurts so much 😞😞
AF got me.
2nd since MC…. I was so hopeful of being one of those super lucky people that get pregnant quickly after 🙄 meh!!

I’m gonna cheer myself up by booking a holiday (and praying that this bloody omicron variant doesn’t mess it up!!) - I had wanted to go away in January when I was pregnant (I would’ve been 5/6 months) but OH was totally against me flying and, much as I know it’s safe, I totally respect that it’s his decision too so it was off the cards, I’ve very much put it back on the cards now!!!

My next AF is due on Christmas Day!! Wtf??!! I’m regular as clockwork so that’s gonna be either the best or worst Christmas ever!! 🤦🏼‍♀️🙄🤷🏼‍♀️

Quick q……. How long did you all take to get pregnant before MC?? I was 2 years TTC so I’m just not feeling at all hopeful of my chances of taking again 😕

Babyghirl · 28/11/2021 20:12

@PeanuttyButter
Really rotton tbh been a long time from I felt like this weak dizzy sick cold all rolled in to one 😭😭😭😭😭😭 wish it would do one 💚

PeanuttyButter · 28/11/2021 20:05

@Babyghirl I'm back on the horse!
How you feeling?

Babyghirl · 28/11/2021 10:08

@Kelb79
Still feel rotton cough won't break at all 😭😭😭😭😭😭 standing up I get dizzy gs, sorry your feeling confused about all the test results but now you have a plan it will all fall in to place 🍀

@PeanuttyButter
Jump on that horse girl lol, don't even let dp know where u r in your cycle and it should take the pressure off and make it less like baby making time.

PeanuttyButter · 28/11/2021 09:49

@Annny27 no only spoke with the receptionist and she wouldn't give me the actual values. Said I had to speak with the doctor but then wouldn't give me an appointment as the doctor hadn't asked for one and she had referred me to gynae so to wait for them. It really doesn't help. We are in a financial position (we aren't loaded but have savings) to go private if that's what I need but I don't know what will help at the moment.
I've been referred to the local woman's hospital now too so hoping their waiting list is lower.

@Kelb79 thanks but I knew AF was going to come as we didn't try that month so AF was good news at the time.

I'm CD 7 today. Usually ovulate on day 13 so we will start DTD today or tomorrow (don't want to put pressure on DH) but at the same time don't want to freakishly ovulate early and then miss it (I've had lh rises on day 10 before then another peak at 13)

Kelb79 · 27/11/2021 12:18

@Annny27 errr yeah….. I relented!! Never did it before, didn’t ever want to risk seeing chemical pregnancies…. But I ended up testing at 8,10 and 12 dpo 🙄🤷🏼‍♀️ All BFN of course! Had the easy@home HCG tests from testing down after MC so they were “just there” 🤦🏼‍♀️ Still holding out a silly little bit of hope but I know I’m out this month!
And OMG…. Is that really a thing that your immune system fights implantation????? I had a horrific cold in the week after my MC was conceived!! I half thought it was symptoms when I found out but it would’ve been way to early!!! That’s totally insane that your body would fight a natural process 😳😳 but also…. How can you kill your immune system for a week after ovulation???? 🤔🤔🤔🤣

@PeanuttyButter so sorry you got AF lovely 😞 I hear you on everyone around you getting pregnant! The most unlikely people around me have got pregnant and gone on to have healthy babies during my delightfully long TTC 😡 sickening!! I actually ended up consoling one of my 16 year old (!!!!) waitresses last night as she came into work mid-miscarriage!!!!!
That was a serious test of my emotions! It’s just 2 months since mine and I broke for her!
Kicked her ass aswell for being so irresponsible - she’s a friends daughter so we’re close enough. Poor girl is going through hell love her…. But it just shows - MCs happen to everyone 💔

@Babyghirl how you feeling lovely?? I hope you get better soon ❤️‍🩹 those tree ornaments are beautiful!! I want one but I’m still so raw I think I’d cry every time I look at it 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️

So my fertility team called me this week to advise starting the IVF application process 😞
When i had my baseline scan they only counted 6 follicles so they’re worried that IVF won’t be a viable option if we wait too long.
It’ll need to be self funded as we live in Cornwall 😩
It’s hit me really hard, they told me I had a much higher than average ovarian reserve following AMH tests so I’m confused as hell!!
But…. Saying that…. I do get that the application process takes so long that it’s worth getting it rolling seeing as time is not on our side. That’ll give us 4-6 months to hopefully make a natural miracle and if it didn’t happen again after that I’d be thinking to move to the next step anyway 🤷🏼‍♀️

Totally screwed my head up though 😐😐😐

Babyghirl · 27/11/2021 10:42

@Annny27
Here's to wishing cause I would not be as bad feeling like 💩 😂😂😂😂😂😂 no symptoms at all so we shall see thou xx

Annny27 · 27/11/2021 10:40

Just usual pms*

OP posts:
Annny27 · 27/11/2021 10:39

@babyghirl having a coldmight be good as immune system can fight the cold and hopefully let implantation happen:) no symptoms, just usual pms with swollen boobs etc etc. Not spotted yet which is a good sign that the laparoscopy has removed the endo :) as it causes spotting which has sometimes been as early as 7dpo for me. You got any symptoms?

@sunnysideup2020 No I haven't tested - after 2 years it looses its appeal haha! If December arrives without a period I will think about testing but no symptoms just usual past. Ahh did it hurt? hopefully your results come back clear and you are free to ttc again soon 🤞🤞

SunnySideUp2020 · 27/11/2021 10:21

@Annny27
Have you tested? How are you?

On my side not much. I had colposcopy and 2 biopsies done on my cervix 2 days ago so no trying this month 😑

Babyghirl · 27/11/2021 10:03

@Annny27
Still lingering gs, I'm abot 7 or 8 dpo now have you any symptoms lol xx

Annny27 · 27/11/2021 09:54

Oh bless you @babyghirl do you still have your cold then? :( what dpo are you now? I am about 12 i think

@Annny27
Winds where bad was up and down most of it, in work now and I feel like 💩 tbh, wish I could go home and go to bed lol.

Annny27 · 27/11/2021 09:15

Morning ladies :) how's everyone's bins holding out after the storm?
@babyghirl it was quite bad in your neck of the woods so hope you are all okay!

@PeanuttyButter did they give you a figure for your progesterone level?

@kelb79 tested yet?

OP posts:
Babyghirl · 24/11/2021 17:35

@PeanuttyButter
Does not sound crazy at all I hate seeing pregnant women, it's so long waiting on an app it's awful hope you can go private and get some answers xx

PeanuttyButter · 24/11/2021 16:27

I got my blood test results. Coags etc all normal.
Day 21 bloods 'adequate'. Been in touch with the gynae secs to chase up my referral and I've got an appointment in March!!!
Having a discussion this evening with my husband about going private. Can't wait around especially as my colleague has confided in me that she's now trying and I can't cope with someone else around me getting pregnant. I know it sounds crazy but I can't. I have a very small social circle and this is the last person in it not to get pregnant since my first. Arghaghrh

Babyghirl · 24/11/2021 09:43

Well I'm loaded with the cold 😭😭😭😭😭 prop abot 4 dpo or around there so off work today. Well I took leave today and tomorrow as pups have to go and get vaccination tomorrow so all getting washed today lol.

Annny27 · 24/11/2021 09:28

Morning:)

@babyghirl awwh those are lovely! We have a little star ornament for our tree that has the nickname we gave our first baby on and it always makes me emotional putting that on. I am watching I'm a celeb too ' naughty boy was a bit dramatic last night haha

@kiwi17 not long to wait now untill your scan :) have you told anyone yet?

@PeanuttyButter see my periods are the opposite in that they used to hurt so bad pre miscarriage and now they aren't so bad since!

@kelb79 every morning I tell myself I am about 7dpo so that I don't feel the urge to check or look at my app haha. How are you doing?

@Annny27 yes one booked for 10 weeks as that's when I started spotting last time but who knows! Hoping and praying anyway. Hope these twws speed up for you ladies!

Babyghirl · 23/11/2021 15:04

@Annny27
Eyes glued to it lol loved last night's one 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm cd15 today but getting a cold gs fingers crossed this month is ur month.

PeanuttyButter · 22/11/2021 22:09

Cycle day 1 for me ladies, AF arrived in full painful glory. I swear they didn't hurt like this pre miscarriage! Ovulation is usually CD13 for me so it's the calm before the storm so to speak! Also need to see where DH is with it all.. glad this last month is over with now though!
Fingers crossed for all that are in the tww xx

Kelb79 · 22/11/2021 20:30

@Annny27 good luck holding out!!! 🙈🤣
Im gonna try to wait until December if I can too!! But I seriously doubt my chances - this TWW is a tough one!
I feel ok though, tired and keep feeling sicky but I honestly think I’m manifesting symptoms 🤣 how are you doing??

I actually forgot an appointment for a blood test to check my progesterone levels after a ovulation this morning 😳😳 how the hell I managed that god knows!! Luckily I got another appointment this aft! Phew 😅
