@ToeBeans24 I can imagine how nervous you are, but try to relax. I am glad everything is going well for you. When is your first appointment? Will they see you any sooner with baby being a rainbow baby?

@ThelastRolo20 I normally use my health app on Samsung and ovulation sticks. I've downloaded premom and I've been taking pregnacare for the last 3 weeks in preparation.

I got my histology results this morning and there was no abnormalities or reasoning for my MMC. In one way I'm glad because I know there's nothing medically wrong but then in another way I think what if it was something I did, maybe lifted something I shouldn't have or done something I shouldn't had done. I'm trying not to dwell on it.

ThelastRolo20 · 27/04/2024 20:20

@DonnaWhat hey! Ah mine lasted a tad.longer than usual with spotting, but each month it gets slightly more "normal". Peak ovulation time for me but I'm not tracking so could be anytime between today and Monday, so I'm going on the assumption it's Sunday!

Are you going to use OPKs/ BBT/ not track at all? X

ToeBeans24 · 27/04/2024 20:13

@DonnaWhat thanks for checking in. I’m doing ok thank you. Pregnancy after loss is so tough anxiety wise. I am very grateful though but every hour I am full of anxiety. I’m testing daily (bad I know) and they are getting darker and feel my symptoms are progressing too.

I hope everyone is doing ok. xx

DonnaWhat · 27/04/2024 20:01

Evening Ladies. Hope your week has been well? How are you all doing? AF showed up last weekend, gutted, but I know that now the first one is out the way, I can start tracking properly. Still bleeding now, just wish it would stop now.

@ToeBeans24 How are you?

@B1989 did they say whether the testing would still be valid at 3 dpo? It all sounds so confusing! Surely there must be lee way given everyones cycles are so unique

Gp didn’t say. Wasnt really until after I got home that I thought about the fact that I ovulate on CD17 of a 27 day cycle. But who knows when you’d test on that basis? I’m pretty sure I’m ovulating, it’s more the progesterone levels I’m worried about

@B1989 shorter luteal phase is currently my concern too as my cycles are 2 days shorter. But I'm not tracking ovulation so of course there's a chance I'm ovulating early but I'm not confident on that front...if no luck this month will definitely track next month. When are you thinking of testing?

@Ella31 any further OPK test updates? X

Still low but I do have clear wet cm and that's increased. I'm so anxious right now

Tested for progesterone on day 20 (but was only 3 days post ovulation so not sure how that will work!)

Day 4 today. Zero symptoms but not expecting any. Had the progesterone test yday with gp. Bit confused as I ovulated day 17 and usually have a 27 day cycle so although it was 7 days before my period, it’s only 3 days past ovulation. A lot of stuff online sayin it needs to be 7 days post ovulation 🤔anyway…

worried re a 10 day luteal phase and having another CP if I do get another bfp. Started vitamin c and going to try b6 too.

how are you today? Any joy with the tears getting darker?

I got pregnant with my twins with a 10 day lp. Anything less than 9 I'd maybe worry.

No joy yet. Trying not to panic.

@Ella31 are the tests any darker today? It could just be one day behind so try not to panic (I know easier said than done though ❤️)

I did one this morning and it was light but it was soon after I had used the bathroom, so ill hold till the afternoon. I find they are higher in the afternoon anyway. Trying not to panic though

@Ella31 according to the app ovulation is tomorrow, could well be Monday from previous experience when I did track, but given my cycles are now 2 days shorter it could have been yesterday 😂 so basically, not a clue. I'll consider Monday 1DPO so I have something to go with!

Aw I'm hoping and finger crossing for you @ThelastRolo20

No sign of ovulation for me yet. Trying not to panic. Just not sure why it's suddenly delayed

@Ella31 this month I had low readings on the Friday then I had 3 readings (high, peak, high) all within 24hrs on Saturday and was back to low on Sunday. When I had my BFP it was a day and a half that I had high readings. No idea what this would mean but I went to check after reading your post. As long as you ovulate and the swimmers are there then you're in with a chance this month 🤞🏼

Thanks @CadoAvo , hopefully I won't be too far behind you.

@Ella31 sounds like you'll definitely be covered 🙂 I'm resisting the urge to use OPKs, I'd like one month of not testing (I will do so next month if no pregnancy).

For some reason not using OPKs makes me think I'm less likely to conceive so I'm already considering myself out this month and I'm not even in the TWW 🤦‍♀️

It's the feeling that there's a lack of control isn't there when you don't use them.

I wish I'd just let them go. I stress so much with them. Where are you cycle wise @ThelastRolo20

@Ella31 what tests do you use? I find I have a rapid peak and decline within a day but that's using the easy at home ones x

Using easy at home too. I'm a little paranoid today as I'm usually getting high enough opks at day 18. We've dtd the last four nights and smep all month so hopefully covered. I hope to see a peak tomorrow

@Rosyposy26 Yes I heard it’s very common for a cyst to form where the egg releases. That’s why a lot of women experience pinching on one side.

That's great @Rosyposy26 I hope going back wasn't too hard

Thanks it was ok and it was the same person as last time so that worked well. Baby dust for us all. We deserve it.

@Rosyposy26 That’s amazing news!!!

Thank you was bit concerned about the cyst but apparently that is normal. Fingers crossed it happens again for me and sticks.
