TTC May 2023 💝 Previous MC March 2023 (thread 4)

That’s totally understandable @Westy22 , it’s almost easier to set yourself up to believe something won’t last rather than believe it may.
I know it doesn’t give you full reassurance but with my successful pregnancies and MCs, my symptoms were so varied between them and I couldn’t attribute particular symptoms to any outcome.
How far along are you now? Could you contact EPU for an early scan? You may not be able to see a heartbeat at that stage but might let you know things are progressing as expected.

@DmcinT awww congratulations 🎊 I've been thinking of you! Glad little girls doing great! Hope your coping well with the madness of newborn stage haha. Xx

@Westy22 totally understandable as @SnookyPook says she was once in your shoes xmas and everyone else who's got there bfp. Make sure you take it easy in work xx

Af is on her was had some spotting today so looks like a 28 cycle this month for me xx

@Sez281 thanks for the new thread! I spotted the other one was almost full and then forgot again! Yes, hopefully on the no news is good news. Tmi but actually dared to DTD with DH for the first time since the BFP last night! Bless him he's been so kind and patient but was definitely in need of some special attention 😂

@Supertrooper101 hope your appointment goes well 💕 I've never been told heart rate at any of my appointments until I specifically asked at the 16wk with the Doppler (158!!).

@Westy22 oh bless you hearing your thoughts brings back so much from Christmas time for me. You're right, it's unfair that previous loss robs us of that joy and excitement of early pregnancy. We've all been there with the hyper alert for bad signs etc. I had the backache one too... And still here.. so hopefully that is some comfort for you. One day at a time. 💕

@DmcinT congratulations on the safe arrival of your darling girl 🥰 How wonderful! And she's always guaranteed cards on Valentine's day 😂💗

Basically i totally do it to myself, i fall down rabbit holes reading about how back ache is bad etc🙈 @xxcxdonxx waking up today it wasn't so bad and I was kinda like "that's because it's over now" I'm going to spend the day in work dragging myself back out of this hole, torturing myself isn't going to change anything. I've still get sensitive boobs and I got a weird dull ache under my breastbone today...maybe a heart attack 🤣 🙈 I think I've done a week of positive and now I'm well into the absolute sheer fear of the current unknown. X

Thanks @Sez281 , that last one filled up quickly! It’s all of that lovely news being shared 🥰

Congratulations @DmcinT on your lovely little valentines arrival 💕 Glad to hear that she is doing well.

Thinking of you for your appointment @Supertrooper101

Aw @Westy22 I'm sorry, the experience really is so different after a mc. Has anything happened that’s making you feel that way?

Good luck today @Supertrooper101 x

@Paws4thought no I haven't booked anything yet, going to wait till next week before I book something for 8 weeks. A whole different type of anxiety has hit and I'm feeling an immense doom that something isn't right so I'm just navigating my way through that now 😩 I hate how mc literally destroys the experience.

@DmcinT aww congratulations ❤️ valentines baby 😍

@Sez281 thanks for starting a new thread, completely forgot about your scan, glad it went well... not long til the 12 weeks one now. I'm OK, just waiting to get negative test so can start again.
@xxcxdonxx thanks for the link to opk strips, I'm using the easy@home at the moment but will try those when I run out as they're cheaper haha.
@Hankthehonk that 4 weeks has gone really quickly!!

@Westy22 that's great that digital has changed to 2-3, have you got a scan booked?
@Jadeypie glad you're feeling calm, and in a good head space 😀
@DmcinT congratulations on the arrival of your little girl, on valentines too, what a perfect gift!
@Supertrooper101 good luck at your appointment! 😀
