August TTC thread ❤️

Guys, I need help. I’d ordered some more cheapies the other day and thought I’d take one this evening to check everything was done. But there was a faint line still.
I did the last ClearBlue I have and it’s darker than it was yesterday. Do I need to go and get checked out? I thought they’d be blank by now. It’s darker than it was on Sunday when I got my first faint line on the Wondfo.

Tests from today.. and clear blue from Sunday to today!

I’m so so sorry @EmPeEf it’s absolutely heartbreaking. Sending love to you too @SleepySkyRat ❤️😩

@SureLook @Mash0917 Im crying non stop. I just can’t help it. My easy at home test was darker than it has been today and my clear blue still has a line and they’re darker than they was Sunday and Monday but I just have a bad feeling and I don’t want to lose the baby. I don’t know if the pregnancy is progressing. When I was pregnant with my daughter I did one cheapie and digital on the same day and that was that. Went to the doctors and she confirmed the pregnancy with a “faint” line but can’t send me for bloods which I’m annoyed with so I’m going to see if the fertility team will. She said there’s some blood in my urine so has given me some antibiotics and said to wait for the midwife to get in touch. I’m shutting myself away even from my partner and I just need to know all is okay! Sorry for rant! My tests from today below…

@EmPeEf very sorry to read your update. Take care of yourself xx

@EmPeEf I’m so sorry to hear that. It truly sucks. Just know you’re not alone, and it’s ok to grieve. I’ve spent the day curled on the sofa with chocolate and the dog, make sure to take care of yourself too xx

@SureLook proper bleeding today and pain so definitely all over. Thanks for checking in.

@SleepySkyRat I’m so sorry, love. I’m right there with you x

Congratulations love! That’s so great to hear. I’ve never missed a period in my life before so this weird and it’s been 18 years 🙃 x Hope it all goes well!

Looks like I’m pregnant this time around (cycle immediately following the long one) if all goes well ❤️ I also suspected supplements as I had started pregnacare and know some people have reported longer cycles but really not sure I think sometimes it can be a random one off (very unhelpful when ttc!)

No just use flo, so weird because I was suppose to use ovulation sticks last month but didn’t end up doing that! Would’ve been so helpful if I did. I don’t know about stress to be honest, I feel like I am always stressed generally but no more than usual, thank you xx did your period come the following month on time ?

No new supplements. Haven’t changed anything really. Do you think it’s just a delayed cycle instead of pregnancy?

I have pretty regular 28 day cycles but last cycle period came at cd 37 - I kept hoping I was pregnant but no test was positive. That month I had no clue about ovulation so might have just ovulated late (stressful period, I travelled a lot). Do you track ovulation at all?

hi all, long time lurker & ttc since December last year after MMC.

in a bit of a pickle. CD34 today. Did a clear blue digital ultra early test with FMU this morning said not pregnant. Did test Saturday morning no lines. So confused normally have a 28-29 cycle each month pushing it CD30.

seeing as I did a test that shows up to 6 days before period and it was negative then am I just skipping a period ?

Oh no I’m sorry @SleepySkyRat, it’s so unfair!

@Iris2024 , How are you doing now? Please let us know. Hugs for you! 💖

Sadly my faint lines turned into fainter lines, spotting and now full AF. Looks like a chemical pregnancy/early miscarriage. Trying to be positive about it all, but had this sinking feeling when I saw how the line wasn’t progressing and should have been darker for 14dpo. Hope everyone is doing ok, going to take some time to process then will be back for September’s TWW.

@ChaE05 due around now. The apps thought earlier because I registered CD1 as the first day of bleeding from last month’s loss, but I OV two days later than normal. But I’m 14dpo today.

@EmPeEfI'm so so sorry 😌 I just know how sad and worried you will be feeling. When is your period due?
These 'chemical' miscarriages (hate that term) are unfortunately so so common. Like they say....most won't even know they have happened ! Unless they test. I know it doesn't make it any easier but I guess what I am trying to say is, it doesn't mean necessarily there is anything wrong with you. These happen more than we know. I don't think the doctor will have referred you if he didn't think there was anything they could do. Sending you love x

What I know is if you have to take heavy dose codeine I. E I take 30mgcodeine 500mg paracetamol regularly daily and it only just takes the edge off. Then that is considered not normal. But it depends who you speak to. I had a convo with a gp she said she also takes the same I said well that isn't normal either. She turned round and said yeah but there's nothing the NHS will do about it. 🤷🏽‍♀️
I've heard anicdotally other people across the UK have better conversations with their gp but that's a dime a dozen I reckon x

@YKM2829good to know I'm not the only one with painful ovulation!
I also had 2 internals with my miscarriage. Plus recently another pelvic ultrasound. So that's 3 in the space of 6 months and all came back okay and no signs of anything. I know pain can be normal. But what is considered normal and what is considered not! Xx

Hey guys! I’m a little behind on this thread as i’ve tried to not think about ttc but I hope everyone’s okay! I’m cd 20 now an unsure if i’ve ovulated? I’ve not got any symptoms but i’ve also not been tracking so I’m really hoping I don’t have a long cycle this month😣I’ve done quite well with not thinking about ttc but now i’m just wanting to know if i’m out or not😬 I hate this last week (or two) before af it’s so draining
