I get knocked down, but I'll get knocked up again, cos you're never gonna keep me down... The big fat posifrickintivity thread for people TTC after MC.

[SaggyOldClothCatPuss]

I thought I'd start the new thread and earn some brownie points with the posifrickintivity Gods...

Sorry rock rubbish but hope June will bring BFP for you.
Yay saggy well done the girls!

missp that is nice news & helps keep up the posifrickintivity.

bunty not been there as still awaiting BFP post MMC but can imagine it's completely normal to be anxious over every little twinge & desperate to get to a scan date for some reassurance. Just take it a day at a time I guess. Are you having an early scan?

penguin good luck tomorrow hope it's just a cyst.

Anyone poas tomorrow?

For so many reasons this thread has put a smile on my face this morning :)

Me too [smike]

I mean !!!!! X

so im confused. its now 12 weeks since erpc and no af. Ive been peeing on ovulation sticks randomly but no lines. I dont really know much about mucus but after hanging out here for the past few weeks I have learned its a good thing . so yesterday I thought it was different and the pee stick had quite definite lines. But I tested again this morning and no lines. so I'm wondering is the ovulation 'window' that small or was it a false positve on the stick?

nearly the ovulation window is very very small. A typical LH surge is only between 12 to 48 hours. This means at most 2 positive OPKs. Monitors like CBFM also measures estrogen, so will give a 'run up' to the LH surge. If you have a BBT monitor, you might notice a sharp rise in your temperature on wake up, about 0.2C. You might notice your EWCM drying up today or tomorrow. This is all good signs your body is working.

I mean BBT thermometer.

Morning all, and great news saggy, the cat that got the cream (SORRY!)

I am going to try to see GP first thing Monday once they re-open and try to get an early scan (you have to get referred to EPU where I live). Keen to get one before I go on hols on 15th, but don't want to go too early.

Good luck penguin and hope this is your month rock.

Oh and thinking of you today overanxious, hope you get some clarity at lunchtime.

Wow saggy I am impressed, I think you and your DH should get an award for commitment to the cause!

Sorry about AF rock

Thinking of you overanxious

Well done saggy your girls must be great! Xx

rock .... Bfp in June for sure

Thinking of you anxious

Just rang up Dr's...results not back yet. "Ring back tomorrow" Grrrr.

x

Gah! That's poo Overanxious!

at over's Dr and rock's AF. rock we can be June BFP buddies. I've given my uterus a stern talking to. This is ttc cycle 3 for me and i remember a few months ago that cycle 3 was the lucky one for lots of ladies. I am determined to be one of them.

and to saggy

nearly it sounds like it might have been ovulation - but i've only just started using the sticks myself so don't really know.

Thanks for the positivity missP. It's nice to hear success stories.

can somebody please give me a big fat fish slap?

I know i'm not pg, but my boobs are hurting and i'm feeling very first-trimester-exhausted. BUT I know that it's all in my head because I just had AF and my OPK sticks are coming up negative (they would pick up HCG, wouldn't they and give me a positive if i was pg?).
So, somebody SLAP some sense into me

Wet fish coming your way! aly

However did you do a preg test? .....

No idea how opk sticks work re pregnancy ... Xxxx lots of love to you!

Im feeling very low - post drinking wine day- only had 3 glasses but feel very emotional now and I'm certain AF will arrive in next couple days and dh just told me he is away for next 3 weeks!!!! Nooooooooo!!!! May have to seriously consider the identical twin brother scenario again!

Is anyone POAS tomorrow? AF due on Monday / tuesday for me .... Should I wait till following Friday? Or do one tomorrow even though it'll be 4-5 days early? I think I'll wait just in case .... Anyone else? X

Good work saggy

Still hoping for you overanxious

And sending magical staying power your way bunty. Try not to fret too much (ha, like that's likely!).

That is a great story camomile. It just shows that after years of heartache, things can all of a sudden become pretty wonderful overnight. Warms the cockles, it does.

aly I am with you 100%. Have just finished period am wrecked and boobs aching. In fact they haven't stopped being sore since first mc in feb. poas opk and negative. There is a website poas.com that tells u why not to use opk as preg test. I was told to take evening primrose for sore boobs (not sure about this when TTC. Requires further investigation oh and cut out sugar. Boooo!!!

Emki I know it's against the rules but I'm thinking of poas on tuesday when I'll be 12-13 dpo just don't think I can hold out until next Friday. Af due on Wednesday/ thurs.

Any chance me and emki can get a special exemption from the poas rules?

Argh nearly had a Laura Ashley moment today (oh dear been on here too long doubt anyone will know what I'm on about!!).

Af was so heavy today literally flooded my sanitary towel and through to my trousers :( luckily they were black trousers and it was the end of the day. That's never happened before I could normally fill one every two days (not that I keep one on for that long!!) so not sure what that's all about. I wonder if it might be my cyst bursting? Dr google isn't really helping me find out if that happens. Guess ill find out at my scan tmrw.

Sorry that was way tmi but if anyone has any idea that would be great!

liesl I have to admit to breaking the rules last week!

Oh flower that happened to me when first AF arrived after mc - luckily I too had black trousers on - not happened like that since I was a teenager!

lies How you doing? I might need a wet fish slap soon as feeing slightly sycho! X

emki me too. Was feeling hopeful at weekend but less so as the week has gone on. That's why id rather know sooner if it's a bfn so I can thinki forward to next month.

Just had a moment reading a pregnancy announcement on Facebook. They only got married at Xmas and already 20 weeks. Can't help feel jealous that some people find ttc so easy!

I know lies it's always a huge reminder of what we're missing - and we are all carrying so much emotional baggage now ..... It will happen for us!aybe just not exactly when we want it! Xxx
