TTC 2024 Babies 🍼🤰🏻🌟🍀🤞🏻💕

@MrsAlana im so sorry to hear this! Thinking of you x

@MrsAlana So sorry to hear this 💔Take care of yourself

@MrsAlana so sorry 💗 sending strength and love take care of yourself xxx

Got my bloods back and they are only at 46, so should be much higher for 5w1day I'm doing a repeat on Wednesday but been advised its likely miscarriage - I suspect I may bleed again before I get to wed with levels that low

Does anyone else count down the days in the TWW? I'm only 2dpos but I'm already counting down the next 12 days. Any tips for how to make the TWW go faster? Last pregnancy it took us 8 months to get the BFP so I'm trying not to get my hopes up in the early cycles (this is cycle 1 after mmc) but it's hard not to get too focused on specific dates ....

@MrsAlana I hope that is good news!!! Keep us updated!

So sorry to hear about your MC but thank you so much for telling me your experience it’s really helpful! I’m hoping I get some answers this week!

I’m usually about 4/5 days so that was def unusual - I’m going to call for tests today - fingers crossed !

@glasshalffull0 ugh I can only imagine the frustration when it's dragged out even longer 😭 if I notice it happening to me I'll defo just stick to folic acid, couldn't deal with the not knowing when due on top of everything🥴... Hopefully next cycle is better for us both 🤞

@Sez281 It was usually between 30 and 32 days. It was so frustrating as I had convinced myself I was pregnant and over thought every little twinge and cramp.

I've since mumsnet searched it and it's quite common. Vey frustrating as I never would've taken it if I had done some research before- I'm not going to take it now, just folic acid instead. However it's definitely worth doing at least one cycle to see if it does affect you and try not to overthink if you are late.

I feel the exact same too- cramps have got a lot worse today so expected AF very soon, just want to get on to the next cycle now!

@glasshalffull0 what was your cycle length before taking pregnacare? I've recently started taking them, my cycle is in or around 26 days so I'm only 9DPO but AF due in 3 days and I think I'll be out too as I'm extremely crampy and no BFP yet 😕 just want it to be here already so I can try again

Think I'm probably out for this month. 15 DPO and still a BFN- surely there would be the slightest hint of a line by now?

Pregnacare conception tablets increased my cycle length to 37 days so I have no idea when to expect AF now either. A bit of a disaster first cycle as I got thrush and never caught my peak too! Phew, bring on the next cycle.

@MrsAlana sorry I should have added that I went on to have positive tests after that "period" which was in fact implantation bleeding. Unfortunately I had an MMC at 8w2d in early March but they did say the bleed wasn't related to it so fingers crossed for you 🤞

@MrsAlana I had what I thought was a period back in January as it lasted for 5 full days and was more than just spotting so it is definitely possible. Unfortunately it's just a waiting game now so you should keep testing and make and wait for appointment, I know it probably seems like a lifetime away 😕 Fingers crossed for you 🤞

@MrsAlana I really don’t know, only time will tell. I’ll be keeping everything crossed for you. How long does your flow normally last? Is two days unusual? Would you attend the GP for HCG levels?

@MrsAlana
If you search the threads then you do hear of this happening. Maybe keep your expectations low and wishing you all the best for testing next week!

@Babyhopeful23 I hadn't even considered temping until I started following these threads the last few days. I'm definitely going to order a bbt as like that I'm worried the opks aren't giving 💯 stars. Fingers crossed for us both next cycle 🤞

Hi everyone I've been TTC no 2 for over 4 years with no success

I'm looking for any thoughts on my current situation I had what I thought was a CP last week - I got a vvfl on cheapie followed by positive early digital on 13DPO, only to start cramping and bleeding heavily the next day.

I bled heavy for 2 days then it tapered off and I accepted that I'd had a chemical. Only.. I took another test yesterday (6 days after I began to bleed) to confirm that my hcg levels had gone, only it was a dark positive (21?DPO) much darker than the week before .. I followed up with a week indicator digital which showed pregnant 2-3 (which would be correct)

My fertility unit won't get me in to do anything unless I get another positive test early next week but I'm basically freaking has anyone had a heavy (/ implantation) bleed? followed by successful pregnancy or is it likely my body is just delaying the inevitable bad outcome

TIA X

@Sez281 thanks for the support. Sorry to hear you think yours is coming too. Are you tracking temp? I started last cycle and definitely helped with pinpointing ovulation. I find that I don’t always catch it on the OPKs.

@SimplyChic the days are certainly longer when waiting for ovulation and also during the TWW. I find it painfully slow.

This AF arriving for me has been the most difficult one to accept, there is no BFP. I genuinely thought it would have happened by now. Anyways back on the horse!!

Thanks @Babyhopeful23 sorry to hear af arrived. I'm cramping really badly today so think mine is going to hit with a vengeance too in the next day or so 😔

So it was definitely an indent! AF arrived yesterday with vengeance. Back to day 1 again, fingers crossed for my BFP this cycle!

@Sez281 welcome, and fingers crossed for a BFP for you!!

Hello, I am about 7 months in now TTC and CD11 the months are now so much longer 🫠🤦🏼‍♀️

@Annie1295 I'm the same, I keep telling myself that realistically it's going to take months and not to get my hopes up but it's so hard not to 🥴 I was never symptom spotting before my last pg but now I'm on tww I'm literally noticing every little twinge and driving myself crazy waiting 🙈 still 4 days till AF due so going to try keep busy and not get my hopes up too much

@Sez281 thank you! Just started TWW so just trying to not get my hopes up too high this cycle.

Thanks @Annie1295 I just read from old posts that you've been through the same, fingers crossed for you too 🤞
