Riverstardust · 15/03/2024 21:23

Also still here. 10dpo cycle 4 TTC #1. Trying so hard not to symptom spit as each time previously it's not worked, so we shall see.

Not gonna be able to afford that every month though on too on £280 worth of accupuncture so we will see.

Barney2009 · 15/03/2024 17:19

Lowrilawson · 15/03/2024 14:24

CharliP33 · 15/03/2024 14:23

Hey @Lowrilawson - yeah this was my chill month trying not to obsess, and now my sis is pregnant it's just made all my feelings feel very raw! Sorry you're still trying too xx Our time will come! xx

Lowrilawson · 15/03/2024 14:08

@CharliP33 hiya, I'm still around I had a chill month without thinking about it, think my period is around the corner so still trying too :( xx

CharliP33 · 15/03/2024 14:07

Hey - how are people doing? Anyone left in here still (not got their BPF yet) haha?! I'm 5DPO. This is our last cycle to try before my husband goes away in a couple of weeks. Then we'll miss 3 cycles.. So got everything crossed, but not feeling too hopeful this time, not sure why!

My sister in law has just announced she's pregnant after just starting trying and I'm absolutely over the moon for her, but it just reminds me of what I'm still trying to get, with no luck so far!

I phoned the GP yesterday to go in and chat about fertility, so we'll see how that goes.

Hope you're all okay xx

4LeafCloverBaby · 14/03/2024 16:26

@KittyFantastica ahhh it was amazing thank you. They were in absolute shock & I managed to get it on video & my Dad aswell. It was perfect. I’m telling my best friends this weekend too so very excited for that 🤗 NHS scan is 1 week today! 🤞🏼❤️

Hi @4LeafCloverBaby thanks for checking in. I'm holding on, no news or changes, which I hope means news.

I couldn't bring myself to rejoin the group until I know what's going on. I've had some time away from the forums and just focused on lots of projects at home. If I have good news on Wednesday next week, I'll rejoin :). I'll update either way. Give them all my love, I hope everyone is doing so well ❤️

4LeafCloverBaby · 14/03/2024 10:38

Thank you all ❤️

Yes, of course @4LeafCloverBaby, please do and give them all my love. I haven't rejoined as nothing is for certain yet. I've been in two minds whether to rejoin, but I think I still need a little more time to process things and prepare myself for the next two weeks. Hope you're doing really well!

4LeafCloverBaby · 08/03/2024 16:19

@KittyFantastica omg this is amazing!!!! Can I let the WhatsApp girls know? I’m sure they would love an update! I’m so happy & positive for you x

@KittyFantastica that is great news. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you.

I am currently in Lisbon feeling sorry for myself as I can't have any port or sangria 🤣🤣 just making up for no alcohol with loads of food instead

KittyFantastica · 08/03/2024 13:12

Hi all, hope you're doing well.

Congratulations @Mummysparrow on your BFP!

I'm still mostly laying low for a bit as we've had quite the roller coaster these last few weeks. I went for my EPU scan to confirm blighted ovum yesterday and came out with a picture of a little baby with a heartbeat. Hubs and I are still in shock and, while the EPU seemed very happy, we are guarding our hearts still. I should, going by LH, have been 7+2 yesterday, and they measured baby as 6 weeks. I'm sure of my ovulation date, so there's no chance I ovulated late. I don't really know why it could be measuring so far behind, but I know it could go either way at this point. Obviously, we are hoping for the best but trying to keep ourselves prepared for the worst

I'm in a state of limbo now and have a follow up scan with EPU in two weeks time. I've still not had any particular symptoms to speak of except some bad cramping two weeks ago and some very, very mild nausea this week. I just wanted to update everyone as I've always found this thread so lovely and supportive ❤️ Wishing you all really well.

Hi Ladies congrats @Mummysparrow .

I've been a bit quiet as I'm trying to have a stress free month all about this conceiving as starting to get me down. But just updating where I am. I'm at cd12 getting high on fertility monitor so just awaiting the peak. We have not dtd as much this month as a trial as we normally do ot every day pretty much so we haven't for 3 days now so hoping to dtd tonight and leading up to ovulation. Hoping that has given his sperm a boost amd body a break. Guess we will see. I started thinking I looking old at 42 so got some new anti ageing face serum and have been cleansing amd moisturising but cheesed off becuase after all the efforts ive now woken up with 2 big spots on face a d i never get spots. 🤣

Yeah I think it's healthy to try and have some down time, especially if it's not happened straight away - me too!. I try not to obsess but it's really hard.

I think we're a bit like you, we DTD pretty much every night during the fertile period. He's only back from work for 3 or 4 nights, right when I ovulate, so hopefully this approach will work! Good luck to you!

CharliP33 · 06/03/2024 09:12

4LeafCloverBaby · 05/03/2024 18:24

@onetwoandthree I started taking them 3 months before I started trying. I’m not sure that you can really take too much Vit C, I think you just wee it out if you consume too much. Yes I got them from Amazon. I will post pics of the ones I got. x

Thanks for all this info, I'm going to get some ordered :)
