Hi ladies. I have started to feel a little overwhelmed with our usual thread and we are at different stages of our journeys now. Please feel free to leave this one if you don't feel the same but I feel so invested in your journeys and don't want to miss any news. Hoping this is ok, I don't think you can do DM as a group?
Hope you are all doing well and if there's anyone I've missed from the usual bunch feel free to add 😘😘😘

@pangolin84 oh hun, I'm so so sorry. I hope you are doing okay 💕 I've had 3 early losses and been diagnosed with high NK cells. If you are looking to get tests done (I'm sure you're not thinking about that at the moment), maybe look into getting those tested. Big hugs from me 💕💕

LuckyMoonstone · 04/12/2022 10:32

@pangolin84 they do count, they counted mine x

pangolin84 · 04/12/2022 07:19

Tested again this morning and the line is barely there so just waiting for it all to clear and AF to pay a visit.
I had lots of long cycles when we were TTC the first time around I didn’t track anything or even test early back then and now I’m wondering if they were CPs and I didn’t realise 🤷‍♀️
Not sure if CPs count as miscarriages when they’re looking at recurrent miscarriage? Had our MMC and now two of these 😞

LuckyMoonstone · 03/12/2022 15:12

Oh @pangolin84 I’m sorry 😞 CPs are so hurtful and unfair

@pangolin84 oh hun, I'm so sorry to read your post. I don't want to get your hopes up, but are you sure it's just not diluted pee? You are still quite early so HCG will be minimal so that could make all the difference with line strength 💕.

@mummatara you're not alone, I feel like that all the time. I also feel really lonely at times too. I think the Xmas period contributes to feeling like that too, so much to plan, do and see which makes you feel even more overwhelmed than any normal month.

@monsteramunch good luck with the testing, it's so hard when you don't have answers.

calimc83 · 03/12/2022 07:45

@pangolin84 I know, they're awful. Could u try your EPU instead? See how u get on today. Try a test with fmu or an afternoon test after a decent hold ( 4 hours). Everything crossed 🤞🏻 for you xx

pangolin84 · 02/12/2022 22:34

@calimc83 Thanks yes I will, it’s literally impossible to get an appointment though 😢
I just did another test to make sure and there’s still a line there this time (I think I was very hydrated earlier) but super faint. Just not feeling hopeful at all. Would expect it to have darkened a bit by now.

calimc83 · 02/12/2022 22:03

@pangolin84 I'm so sorry that's just shit. Definitely make your GP aware of what's happened xx

@MrsCristianoX I feel you! I always then leave it too late to make plans and all my friends are then not free 🙈. I think being on my own a lot this week has me suffering from cabin fever.
You CAN do this, this time of year is overwhelming so try and take the pressure off yourself this month. If you DTD great but if not, be easy on yourself. It's a fu@&ing slog!!!
You're entitled to have down days and we're all here to pick you up again ready for the next tactical seduction 😉

Oh I've seen take that and Gary Barlow about 6 times, no shame there! 😂

@FfayeN take that are my shameful secret 😂

MrsCristianoX · 02/12/2022 21:32

@mummatara 🤢 for the red wine too. I don't know what is wrong with me but I think if I had the morning after pill in front of me now I would take it 🙈 Just feel a bit like I can't do this again. Obviously I work in a pharmacy and didn't take it. Work is draining me too. Do you work in retail? Customers are dickheads. I was shamefully cheeky to a man on the phone today actually ringing to complain he couldn't get through to his doctor and could I sort it for him?? Yea sure I have his mobile 🙄

Im really sorry this is my rant over today

@FfayeN I have no close friends nearby either. I work 10 hour shifts and don't even get an uninterrupted lunch break. One of my closest friends messaged today and said it's been ages since we chatted and that just about sums it up ❤️

@mummatara bless you lovely, same goes for you! I'm back to work Tuesday, got an ok week to be honest, westlife Wednesday (don't judge 🤣) then our work christmas do Friday, I am just wanting to start the new year with some answers so wishing life away almost! I'm sure most of us do that for half the month! Glad the dog walk managed to clear your head a little 😊 xx

@calimc83 No bleeding yet and temp was still high this morning but my last chemical was exactly like this. The test got lighter then a couple of days later I started bleeding.
AF is due tomorrow - today is 13 dpo. Got some mild cramps too.

TheBirdintheCave · 02/12/2022 21:11

@pangolin84 I'm really sorry :(

mummatara · 02/12/2022 21:02

@MrsCristianoX I've gone for ice cream because my only wine option is red 🤢

@FfayeN oh hun it's so crappy when are you meant to go back? Can you take any extra leave? ❤️ if you want to dm I'm always happy to share my number we might be close by you never know and that goes for any of you ladies 💕but totally get if you want to be anon too

@pangolin84 oh no lovely im so sorry ❤️Are you sure it's not just a dodgy test I really hope it is big hugs

@Indianna2006 I know I'm usually pretty good at managing everything but I think everything's just come to a head this week and they've all crashed at once 🤦🏼‍♀️ I just took the dog for a walk which helped nice bit of fresh chilly air to help me cough my guts up a bit more 😂

calimc83 · 02/12/2022 20:48

@pangolin84 I've just seen your update lovely. Have u had any bleeding at all? When was AF due? Really hope it's just a dodgy test xx

@pangolin84 oh hun I'm so so sorry 😢 sending big hugs your way. It just isn't fair xxxxx

@Indianna2006 Yes just one of the same internet cheapy ones. On one hand I question why I keep testing early but I’d prefer to find out earlier rather than later.
Not sure how much more of this I can take.

MrsCristianoX · 02/12/2022 19:34

@Indianna2006 I mean it wasn't in right. I knew it. Didn't wanna fiddle too much. I'm sorely tempted to write this month off. But DH is being pure lovely to me ❤️

MrsCristianoX · 02/12/2022 19:31

@pangolin84 what the actual f**k?? I'm so sorry hopefully it's a dodgy test but if not, you don't deserve this. None of us do. 😢

Indianna2006 · 02/12/2022 19:31

@mummatara sounds like you have a lot on your plate hun. It’s so hard sometimes. Especially juggling life with little ones. They do take such a demand. Zero free time like ever.

@MrsCristianoX deffo shouldn’t fall out. Be lucky if can get it out normally 🤣🤣 I found I could put it in and almost support it whilst I flipped it so it didn’t pull out further. Then once it was flipped I’d try push it deeper?

@pangolin84 oh no hun 😩 was it same tests you took where line has disappeared?

pangolin84 · 02/12/2022 19:17

I think I’m going to join the Debbie Downer club as my test line has disappeared (along with my sore boobs), so that’s chemical number 2 after the MMC 🙄

@TheBirdintheCave I'm excited for your test result! I have hope that everything will be ok 🥰

@mummatara yep...Debbie here too hun!! I don't want to go back to work, I am trying to plan New York, I feel like I'm stuck in a rut at home just waiting for these test results too and another 2-3 months of not being able to TTC, it's all just so shit isn't it!! I struggle with not really having many friends near where I live so get quite lonely too. Wow...that's not Debbie...I'm Barbara at the Bottom 🤣🤣🤣

@MrsCristianoX haha if it fell out it def wasn't in enough 🤣. I do the same as the others and give it a push up whilst pulling the tail, then squeeze my pelvic floor in the hope it'll suck it up more 😂. It's also taken me 4 days to put up my tree...small stints to get through it lol x

@monsteramunch with the majority of results there's something they can do to assist TTC or preventing miscarriage as much as possible! What tests are you having? I find knowing so much easier as then the guess work is taken away xx

@mummatara @monsteramunch massive glass of wine for me tonight. Finally a weekend I'm not working. (With you on the punching a few people) my first due date is the 5 dec

Hugs for you both 💕
