@HavinKittens thank you so much. And no worries at all, I'd been a silent observer to see how you were all getting on and then went to post on the old thread and saw it was full and hoped to track you down 😊 as the bleeding had been going on for a few days I think I've had some time to get my head round the outcome not being great but it's still an awful limbo time 😔 I'm hoping I'm in for the surprise of my life next week but I'm also going into the appointment thinking it's just a check and confirmation of a miscarriage.

Oh @Vic231 I am so sorry. I hadn’t tagged you as I thought you will have moved on. We are here for you whilst you wait for your scan. Big hugs

Hi ladies, really glad I found the new thread and I hope you don't mind me dipping back in, but unfortunately I think I'm having a chemical pregnancy 😔 I've had bleeding off and on and then today it feels like my actual period is here. I've spoken to my midwife and have an EPU scan booked for Tuesday as it's the earliest they can do it. You ladies are so supportive and it's really tough being on the due February threads x

Oh @PollyDarton1 I’m sorry. You have had so many false starts, I can understand how you’re feeling low with it all.

Would it help to have a break from tests and “trying” for a while? I know I’ve found it easier this month since I told myself we aren’t “trying”, just not not-trying either.

Hi and welcome @CurlyWurly1991 yes the tests can be cruel. It can be so hard to wait when you feel desperate but you’re right it’s better if you can resist and spare yourself the heartbreak!

Hi @CurlyWurly1991! Lovely of you to join us ❤️

It is very brutal. The evaps are torture!

CurlyWurly1991 · 28/06/2023 10:36

Hi can I join? I’m 37 TTC#2 after a big gap. Second cycle and I’m 6dpo. Doing temping and OPKs and I’m on herbs including vitex as my periods were irregular. I’m holding out to test until at least 12dpo if my period doesn’t start by then, as I got a late hpt last time and hate the bfns.
@PollyDarton1 sorry to hear that, it’s so disappointing. Cruel the way that our bodies play tricks on us in the TWW.

So I got the Boots tests and with a 2hr hold did a test. I could see a line whilst it was developing but dried to nothing. Yesterdays must have been evaps Sad I feel so low with it all, I've had so many evaps and although I know I'm probably 9/10DPO I bled for 3 days and should be showing as pregnant now if I was.

Hey! I’m glad the tagging worked 😅
may have to go back to the old thread and make sure I didn’t miss anyone. Also didn’t want to tag anyone who isn’t taking part any more.

@dmcint I replied initially to say congrats and sorry I was too busy to reply. If she was a good friend I would have been more honest but didn’t feel like opening up with her. I’ve sent a longer reply since asking how she’s doing.
