Not started a new thread before so I’ve just gone back through thread 19 and tried to tag everyone whose posted. Apologies if I’ve ended up tagging anyone though that no longer wants to follow the thread. I’m sure there’s been quite a few bfps. Here’s hoping for many more on here too🤞

Ahhh congratulations @elsimo and @SLCxxx what wonderful news! And also congrats to all the bfps that have been on this thread. It all gives me hope and makes me feel so happy 😊

I’m also so sorry to those that have suffered a miscarriage and are still trying for a baby. My heart really goes out to you ❤️

I’m sorry I’ve been very absent from this forum for quite a while now. If I’m being honest I was really struggling mentally with the trying to conceive process, couldn’t shake the anxious feeling like it’s never going to happen for me. I needed to take a step back from it for a bit. But feel a little more positive now - still have my anxious moments but overall I’m not feeling as bad about it. Helps we have a sort of plan now. Started Clomid this cycle, will try that for a few months and if no luck move on to laparoscopy and/or ivf. Fingers crossed we’ll all have more bfps on here soon x

Thanks everyone! Just before I was fell pregnant with him I was struggling to even read the forum.
It was a long, hard journey and I can honestly say the 2 years ttc him were the hardest of our lives but here we are.
U just never know if next month will be ur bfp xx

Elciekay · 26/02/2022 22:35

@SLCxxx congratulations to you too! You both give me lots of hope! Sending lots of love!

Elciekay · 26/02/2022 22:34

@elsimo omg congratulations! Wonderful news! Flowers so happy for you!

susiebluebell · 25/02/2022 09:49

Ah @elsimo and @SLCxxx you make my heart sing 😊 congratulations and well done! Xxx

SLCxxx · 25/02/2022 04:18

Congratulations @elsimo 💙 I’m so happy for you.

@bez91 glad everything’s running smoothly, and hopefully those last 11 weeks fly by.

My little girl was born 3rd Feb @ 37+2 weeks and it’s surreal.. as are the sleepless nights lol xx

elsimo · 25/02/2022 02:42

Baby has arrived :) My little boy was born on Monday 🥰.
I still can’t believe he is actually here

bez91 · 22/02/2022 09:46

Hey @elsimo all good here, just being kept an eye on so regular appointments due to recurrent MCs. 11ish weeks to go. Has baby arrived yet for you? 😬

Treesaa · 14/02/2022 19:04

@Elciekay
Apologies, I took a break from MN. My life had become a cycle of trying for a baby and grieving when AF shows up. I'm glad that your procedure went well. You'll have your rainbow baby soon :)
And to everyone else still trying Flowers

elsimo · 10/02/2022 13:10

@bez91 how is it going for u?
I have a week to go here Shock

re6ecca · 09/01/2022 14:16

I think so @Elciekay!
I think I must be one of the only ones left from early 2020 who hasn't had a rainbow

Elciekay · 09/01/2022 13:36

@re6ecca it's quiet since I joined in 21! Maybe many had their 🌈?

Elciekay · 09/01/2022 13:35

@Treesaa the procedure went well thank you for asking
Being under GA was a dream compared to being awake last August!

Only issue is that they are concerned it was a molar pregnancy. So obviously I googled and have now terrified myself. I don't want to have to wait over 6 months to try again!

How is everyone else's journeys?

re6ecca · 09/01/2022 01:56

It was thriving back when I joined in March 2020

re6ecca · 09/01/2022 01:56

Hope you are feeling okay @Elciekay
This thread is awfully quiet these days where has everyone gone?

Treesaa · 08/01/2022 23:02

How did the procedure go? How are you? Xx

Treesaa · 08/01/2022 23:01

@Elciekay

I am so sorry Elcie. FlowersFlowers. I'm thinking of you and hope you are getting plenty of support at home.

Elciekay · 06/01/2022 13:50

Went forna 3rd scan at EPAU yesterday and they confirmed miscarriage. Having mva under GA tomorrow. I'm heartbroken but glad they got me in this week.

Going to read up more on COQ10 and aspirin. Love to all x

Treesaa · 29/12/2021 19:43

Ah yes I was about to say twins too. So if they are seeing the yolks then there is hope? I'm keeping everything crossed for you xx

Rtmhwales · 29/12/2021 19:27

@Elciekay

That's so frustrating! I'll cross my fingers and toes for you. Two would indicate twins if I'm not mistaken?

I learned about the testing by copious amounts of googling studies on recurrent miscarriages and the causes and what they can test for. I read clinical studies of a lot of things professionally so it wasn't a hardship to read about this since it affected my actual life.

I've asked my primary care physician to refer me for genetic testing and counseling and more specifically karotyping. Still waiting on that as the waitlist with Covid is ages. But it's a step (and I have the worst gut feeling it's what our issue is).

Elciekay · 29/12/2021 19:12

@Treesaa well we are still stuck in limbo. The gestational sac has shrunk since last week but they have seen what they think are two yolks on today's scan which they didn't see last week. So they won't call miscarriage yet legally and we have to go back for another scan next week.

I think I cried myself out last week but my DP is angry. Not at me just the situation.

@Rtmhwales how did you know to ask about that testing? I feel like I'm so lost in all of this.

Treesaa · 29/12/2021 16:40

@Elciekay

Just saw your posts and my heart broke for you. I am so sorry to hear this. How are you? How is it going/ how did it go at EPAU?

Elciekay · 29/12/2021 10:09

I'm going to start Coq10 in the new year and try to lose some weight to see if either help. I've been told until you have 3 mc they don't investigate?

Sat in EPAU now and hate myself for still having a glimmer of hope that I messed up my dates and that you can get a bfp immediately after xonception. The rational side of me knows that I'm being ridiculous.

SLCxxx · 29/12/2021 06:40

Oh @Elciekay I’m so sorry xx
