Omg @Lh4503 I’m so sorry πŸ˜” that’s awful especially on holidays. Do what you need to do to get through the next few days and take it easy. Sending big hugs and thinking of you ❀️

Lh4503 · 28/08/2025 20:31

Hi Ladies, hope your all doing okay. Bad news from me, I started bleeding heavy yesterday and cramping badly. Pretty sure I've miscarried again 😫😒 trying to get through the next day or so as im still abroad and will test again when I get home but expecting to see a negative, absolutely heartbroken atm. πŸ’”

WF1990 · 28/08/2025 20:20

Hi ladies so sorry @EmPeEf hope you’re ok 🫢

Welcome @Figtree11 and sorry to hear about your MMCs hoping this is your month 🀞

@MegLS sorry AF arrived hope she’s being kind to you! I swear tracking/trying to conceive makes everything go out of whack πŸ˜…

@WF1990 you deffo need a pill box 🀣 but if it works it works! I’m sure I’ll be on to the next cycle with you it’s been such a weird month that I’m just over it and ready for a new cycle now. Chat GPT thinks I’m 8dpo with AF due Monday so hopefully not long to go

WF1990 · 28/08/2025 18:13

@MegLSonto the next month πŸ€žπŸΌπŸ’“

Hi, AF has arrived properly for me today so I’m onto the next cycle. It’s left me a bit confused given the early spotting etc, but trying not to think too much into it - just not my month!

WF1990 · 28/08/2025 16:03

@Figtree11im glad you have support there ! I had metformin a couple years ago but my cycles are regular (28/31 days) so I don’t need it, as well I don’t have insuline resistance.
my progesterone is too low and my luteal phase too short (9 days) so last time I had the appt with my consultant he said we would consider clomid, but they will probs add something for progesterone now! I’m still taking my supplements hoping that it helps the luteal phase !

Thanks @WF1990 i’m under Tommys miscarriage clinic and had testing through them which is how I found out about the pcos. I’m on metformin for it to try & regulate my cycles. And a protocol of medications if I get pregnant again.
Wishing you loads of luck with the fertility treatment! Do you know what treatment you’ll be having?

WF1990 · 27/08/2025 20:07

Welcome @Figtree11, fellow pcos girly over here, I am starting fertility treatment end of September !
I’m sorry for you mmcs πŸ˜” did you not get a fertility referal ? I am ttc number 1 too. Good luck lovely πŸ’•πŸ’•

good luck to everybody on a new cycle. @EmPeEfso sorry this cycle wasn’t conclusive for you either…
i have officially started temping and I’ve added inositol and coq10 to my supplements (i swear I need a pill box now πŸ˜‚)

Sorry I have been completely MIA, it’s the busiest time of year for the industry I work in; just to add some fuel to the fire whilst all this is going on!
congrats @Lh4503!!
hope everyone is keeping well 🫢🏻
currently cycle day 16 and LH levels are slowly increasing, a lot of testing for me over the next couple of days.

Figtree11 · 27/08/2025 16:43

Can I join please? Have been TTC baby no.1 for the past 2 years with 3 MMC in that time. I’m now 1dpo - didn’t ovulate until cd31 as I have pcos, so it’s been a very frustrating cycle

EmPeEf · 27/08/2025 13:44

@WF1990 three days of light positives and now fully bleeding so not to be this month, thanks for checking in x

MegLS · 27/08/2025 11:44

@Lh4503 Thank you, that’s good to know! I do have a clear blue rapid response one, it’s not an early one though so didn’t want to use it too soon. I might try tomorrow if AF doesn’t start properly!

Lh4503 · 27/08/2025 11:38

@MegLS the Mommed ones are just as rubbish as the premom ones. Me and my sister didn't get positives on Mommed until at least 13dpo and very very faint when first response was a clear positive. Just a heads up!

MegLS · 27/08/2025 11:31

@WF1990 Thank you, unfortunately had a negative test with FMU this morning (11dpo). It was just a cheap Mom-med one but 100% negative. Also had a little bit more spotting, though still very light, so thinking it might just be AF making a slow entrance at this point.

Fingers crossed for you for this new cycle!!

WF1990 · 27/08/2025 10:15

Hi ladies !

thank you for your messages, I’m on a new cycle ! Waiting for my LH peak which should be in about a week or so ? Maybe a bit more.
@EllieWaleshow are you feeling ?
@EmPeEfhave you tested again ??
@Lh4503i will keep this in mind regarding the tests as i always thought premom were the best ! Probably not !!
@MegLS@EllieWalesfingers crossed for you both 🀞🏼🀞🏼🀞🏼🀞🏼

MegLS · 26/08/2025 11:10

@EllieWales I think I will, I didn’t today as thought it would still be too early anyway and I’m running out of tests but not sure I’ll be able to hold out any longer!

How confusing! Fingers crossed you did peak but just didn’t quite catch it with the tests, sometimes mine seems to come and go so quickly and other months it will slowly climb. This month in the morning it was about as low as it could be and then by the evening it was at a strong peak! We’re in the same boat with AF due this weekend then, fingers crossed for both of us.

EllieWales · 26/08/2025 10:56

@MegLS sounds like it could be implantation bleeding, are you planning testing with FMU tomorrow?

I have no idea what’s happening this cycle, I’m on CD23 LH rose and fell for a few days last week but never reached a true peak before I ran out of tests. I feel like I’m in the luteal phase, resting heart rate is elevated which is consistent with the hormonal shift post ovulation for me but BBT has remained low. I usually have a 28 day cycle with ovulation around CD16. AF should be due on the weekend so just going to have to wait and see

MegLS · 26/08/2025 10:30

@EllieWales Yes I’ve had a bit more this morning, not a lot and still just a pale brown colour. Normally for me there would be more and it would be darker if it’s AF starting. AF isn’t due until Friday, so not really sure what to think! I did give in and take a test last night but it was negative, wasn’t surprised given I was only 9dpo and it wasn’t FMU. Haven’t had any other symptoms yet though other than slightly sore boobs but they usually hurt each month anyway.

How are you doing? Has AF made an appearance or are you still waiting?

EllieWales · 26/08/2025 09:14

@WF1990 sorry AF showed up, hope you had a nice time away. I think I’ll be onto the next cycle with you πŸ™‚

Sounds promising @MegLS anymore spotting this morning?

Congratulations @EmPeEf hope you get a strong bfp in the next couple days 🀞

Hope all is going well @Lh4503

Lh4503 · 25/08/2025 17:26

Also regarding tests, wouldn't recommend easy@home premom tests. They are supposed to be early detection and im still getting a line so faint you can barely see it. My period would have been due 14dpo as always im 16dpo today, obviously missed period. πŸ‘ŽπŸ‘Ž

Thank you so much @MegLS 😊

@EmPeEf Congratulations!! I felt the same it causes more stress πŸ™‚

@EllieWales Sorry your still in limbo 😒 it's be so frustrating!

@WF1990 Sorry your AF has come 🩷 positive vibes for next month when your treatment will hopefully help!

MegLS · 25/08/2025 14:14

@WF1990 Sorry to hear that! What treatment will you be trying if you don’t mind sharing?

@EmPeEf That’s so exciting, congratulations! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you
