This is it for us all :-)

Progesterone causes constipation, so can be AF or pregnancy, annoyingly.

In fact, it's VERY annoying that most / all AF symptoms are also pregnancy ones. :-(

I have to use sticks for the CB test. And we are only on CD8, 9 days from last month's peak, so could flag by then!

Morning lovely ladies :) sorry to hear about the BFN block and lol hopefully you won't be left in limbo land too long!

Had a lovely night out last night but suffering slightly today, going to go for a nice pub lunch soon with DH which will hopefully perk me up a bit!

Just wanted to let you know that I POA cb OPK S again this morning, and got another smiley after yesterday's smiley!! Bit confused now as thought the surge didn't last that long? To confuse me more, my temperature has already risen which suggests I have now ovulated! We DTD yesterday and will again today to cover all bases but god knows what's going on in my womb!! Think I'm soon to be in the dreaded 2ww!

That is a bit odd...residual surge? :-/ As I don't temp chart I don't get that combination of head f**k!

As long as you shag again today I'd hope you'd be fine.

I think I'm going back to EOD from today. 3 days in a row is more than enough this early! Will POAS from Weds, so CD11, and see what my body does this cycle. I'm hoping to do a Wishful and get up duffed in the couple of weeks before the wedding!

Sorry about bfn lol & block. Hope that you're not in limbo land for a long time.

Still no peak but just DtD everyday just incase!! Used cp yesterday for the first time, that was a good added bonus!! :-)

Nic, glad that your dress fitting went ok!!

Ooh, Raspberries, we should get commission for the CP recommendations, I think. It's really nice, isn't it? :-)

What day are you on?

Lol Nic!!! Definately!! I was pleasantly surprised!! ;-)

I'm on day 19 - which isn't that late, but I'm impatient!!! I just want a peak!!

But dh read this am that even if the monitor doesn't show a peak then you can still have ovulated but it may not show, fx that I have still

Oops!! Posted to soon!!
Fx I have still ovulated and it's just not shown a peak!! Or I could still peak - it's only day 19!!

Sorry for rambling - I hope that made sense!!

Hi everyone

I've had another mc so back to ttc.

I felt like this one wasn't right from the start - only found out I was pg on Monday and started mc yesterday. Test had already gone -ve by yesterday afternoon.

I think that I'm going to count yesterday as cd1.

FX for a BFP in October!

Maybe you're just on a longer cycle like lets seems to be?! Fx, anyway :-)

I'm glad I've got H2B on the CP bandwagon, as next weekend we will have to use it every time.

I'm hoping increased shagging + CP = baby!

Hi Woody

Sorry about your MC. You seem very calm about it. Are you OK?

Fx for October.

Feel really upset but I just knew it wasn't right, if that makes sense - I was expecting it and not just because I've mc before. GP told me that it is unfortunately very common to have 2 mcs in a row.

Just trying to be positive and look forward. I don't know what else to do.

No, I suppose that's all you can do. Did your GP suggest anything, or just tell you that it is sadly common?

Really hope it is 3rd time lucky.

Really? Very common? How common?
That's very scary.

They just said that if I have a third, I'll be referred.

My dad is a doctor and he's said something about baby aspirin so I might look into that.

I think it's just one of those things.

I heard lots about baby aspirin as well and that it can help reduce risk of mc. I was thinking of taking it but was worried of doing if without being prescribed by doc.

Yeah, I think that some people seem to think that it can help and others that it doesn't. I think that I'd discuss it with GP before I did anything though.

Just desperately want to get one to stick!

Yeah, I'm wary about taking anything, and my doctor didn't seem to think there,was any reason to take anything at the moment either.

But it's understandable we consider it as we all just want to be pregnant.

Supposedly, you take the baby aspirin as soon as you find out that you are pg. But I definitely wouldn't take anything without taking to gp first.

It is interesting. But I'm with you in not taking anything unless my GP recommends it.

What's baby aspirin?

Woody, I'm so sorry to hear about ur mc. I hope that you're ok. Xx

Peardrop, it is a really low dose, about a quarter strength of adult aspirin.

Oh ok, thanks Nicola

There's talk of it improving blood flow to the uterus / lining.

woody I'm so sorry to hear about your mc, fx that Nic's right and that its third time lucky for you - suppose if there can be a positive, its that you seem to be able to conceive with no problem so fx the next time it sticks
