Heyyy I am back in the two-week wait if anyone is in the same boat and wants company, I ovulated 29th sept I believe! Chemical pregnancy two cycles ago so wishing this cycle is the one 🤞🏼

Hey all, looks like I’m going to ovulate whilst I’m away with my friend so won’t be able to dtd any closer than 2 days before and 1 day after ovulation :/ annoying- does anyone know of any ways to increase the likelihood of sperm surviving for a couple days?

HJA87 · 18/10/2022 23:05

@MillieKitty , thank you x I think the only thing that will make me feel better is another pregnancy/baby and so I have no choice but to try xx

@Mum2yorkie that’s very true x

Mum2yorkie · 18/10/2022 19:42

@MillieKitty also meant to say I'll absolutely be looking out for the next thread 👍

Mum2yorkie · 18/10/2022 19:42

@HJA87 if any good can come from losing a baby (as absolutely heart wrenching as it is) it's that it might help solidify your feelings. For me it really did bring home just how much I did want another and helped me find my way through a bit. I hope you get your sticky BFP soon xx

@Mum2yorkie sorry to hear about AF! Will hopefully see you in next thread,

@HJA87 so sorry, I was thinking of you earlier and I'm glad you're keen to get trying again, I'm sure it won't be long 💗

@Mum2yorkie sorry to hear AF is here😔

Thank you for asking, I’m feeling ok. It’s almost as if I expected it anyway. Tests are getting lighter now so it’s definitely over. Weirdly, I’m actually keen for the bleeding to be over so that I can resume trying asap. A couple of days ago I felt like I needed a break from this nightmare repeating every month but have now decided that if I want another baby then I’ll just have to keep trying😒

Mum2yorkie · 18/10/2022 15:54

I'm out too, AF turned up yesterday so here's to the next cycle being the successful one 🤞

How are you holding up @HJA87 ? Hope you're as ok as can be expected xx

Peeonastick22 · 17/10/2022 08:39

@HJA87 so sorry, I hope you’re doing ok it must be so stressful ❤️

HJA87 · 16/10/2022 10:35

Thank you all x I’m pretty certain it is ending as it’s so similar to last month. I also had my HCG tested via blood and although it was doubling a few days ago it was really low. If and when I get my next BFP the anxiety will be even worse 😩I’m getting some tests done so hopefully they will uncover some problem that can be fixed. I hope those of you who had BFNs are feeling positive for the next cycle x

@HJA87 im so sorry..
Keep positive, easier said than done.

We are all here to support. ✨🤞🏻

Mum2yorkie · 16/10/2022 09:56

@HJA87 I'm so sorry to hear that. I have everything crossed for you that is isn't another miscarriage and just a bit of early pregnancy bleeding xx

Oh @HJA87 I'm so sorry if it is what you think, it's good that the tests are progressing so I have everything crossed for you that it's just normal bleeding ❤️

OP posts:
HJA87 · 16/10/2022 09:35

Well, I will be joining you all on the next thread as just started bleeding despite my tests progressing. I know they say bleeding can be normal in early pregnancy but this is exactly like my miscarriage and to be honest, I just know 😩

jmase · 15/10/2022 21:27

Mum2yorkie · 15/10/2022 19:19

Mum2yorkie · 14/10/2022 20:22

Such a weird limbo isn't it @jmase I'm just hoping AF hurries up now so the next cycle can begin

Sure is! Just hoping something happens soon

jmase · 14/10/2022 20:34

Kayycatt · 14/10/2022 20:34

@Mum2yorkie @jmase

It's not over until AF arrive.

Fingers crossed for you both!

Thank you lovely

So sorry for not joining in the last few days. Massive congratulations to the ladies who have positive tests - there's lots of you lucky ladies! And to the ladies who haven't, I'm so sorry this cycle wasn't to be and please don't give up hope even though it's heartbreaking ❤️

According to my Fitbit, AF was due on Tuesday but never showed up. I had a longer period last month though so I don't think AF should arrive until next Tuesday. Of course I tested after Tuesday anyway 🙈 and have had negative pregnancy tests the last couple of days so I'm trying not to again until Tuesday if AF doesn't turn up. I was convinced she was on the way last Sunday as I had period pains but that amounted to nothing 🤷🏼‍♀️ so still on the seemingly neverending 2WW

Fingers crossed for you sounds like we are in a similar position
