Hope it's not too presumptuous but the last thread was nearly full so thought I'd get a new one ready!

Thanks Boris and I think that once you start to get proper symptoms, you will get a line as well. I am sure I just have a bug that was combined with a weird AF and, as I am ttc, it sent my symptom spotting into overdrive!

MagpieCursedTea · 30/12/2015 23:19

I just had bleeding again after DTD. Bugger, thought it had stopped. Really worried something is wrong Sad

Magpie do you think you could have had a chemical pregnancy? Did you poas at all? Could explain a long bleed?

Go to the doctors if it's worrying you, if only for peace of mind. Xx

Rainy34 · 31/12/2015 08:44

magpie sorry you are bleeding so much, think you need to go to the doctors and get it checked out

Thanks boris woke upto actual spotting now, until they give me progesterone I dont think it will work,

MagpieCursedTea · 31/12/2015 09:33

Thanks both. I spotted all the way through my last cycle (30 days) then had AF again and spotted for a few days but then it seemed to stop for a day or 2 until after DTD yesterday. I've had a scan which showed a 2-3cm functional cyst and that my lining was a bit thicker than normal, I've been referred to gynaecology and am waiting for an appointment.
I've been googling thickened lining and scaring myself!

magpie my friend has a cyst and she had bleeding like you in and off through out the month , she took the high strength vitamin b complex from Holland and Barrett abd it helped , a few months later once it had settled down she fell pregnant and now has an 8 month old baby , so it can be done

MagpieCursedTea · 31/12/2015 09:54

That's good to hear! Vitamin B is something I started taking recently, hoping it helps.

Sorry for the self absorbed posts everyone. Will get back to actually replying to people in a bit!

magpie don't appologise for posting. It's what we are here for. Holding your hand until you see the gynae. I have mid cycle bleeding and 2 cysts my gynae isn't worried. It seems to be something they deal with. Tell your gynae that you are taking vit b. X

Rainy34 · 31/12/2015 10:13

magpie don't apologise, we are all hear to support each other, x

Sodasoda · 31/12/2015 12:31

Argh! Just wrote a really long message and lost it! In laws internet connect is horrible!

Sodasoda · 31/12/2015 12:36

sammy really sorry about the news from your clinic. I hope the time passes quickly for you. This time in 2 months hopefully you'll be pregnant!

magpie no need to apologise for anything. You're an incredibly supportive member of this thread and I hope we can support you too. I don't have any knowledge re cysts but it sounds like you should definitely push to get this checked. Perhaps a smear test to cover all bases too?

fuzzy - sorry but I don't have much advice for you I'm afraid. I'd just say that if something isn't normal for you definitely keep an eye on it and perhaps get it checked if it happens next month?

dizzym how are you feeling? Hope AF stays away for you.

Welcome woodpigeon

Hi to rainy boris kellz and everyone else xx

Kirjava · 31/12/2015 13:53

delurks

I'm convinced vit b complex is what got me my bfp. I had spotting and short luteal phase.

Happy new year bumsnetters x

Kirjava · 31/12/2015 13:54

sammy big huge hugs. I hope January flies by for you xxx

crusading · 31/12/2015 17:12

Please can I join?
Trying for number 2 for a few months but been very laid back about it and limited opportunities. Came off the pill in may but cycle didn't return to normal till about August, (was a week late and had loads of symptoms that month before af appeared) September work got in the way at key times Confused
October I got squashed by a horse damaging a few ribs which ensured I was rather delicate for October and November!!!
Finger crossed for Dec af due 8th Jan.
Dd conception wasn't exactly a walk in the park, took 2years! Went through all the normal tests a cycle of clomid, laparoscopy etc. I had given up doing this the natural way, the month I fell preggers I got drunk in the 2ww Blush and rode some lunatic horses no idea how the bean stuck!
So although starting to take ttc seriously as dd would love a sister (not sure if she will be impressed by a brother but we can worry about that if it happens) not going to stop doing what I want to, always thinking about "what if, next month".
Good luck ladies x

woodpigeon123 · 31/12/2015 17:28

Hi crusading... Hopefully 2016 will be the year!
How many cycles of Clomid did it take you? (I'm on cycle 3 at the moment....)

sammy and magpie sending hugs

xxxx

chopsface · 31/12/2015 19:10

Happy new year bumsnetters new and old. May 2016 be the year of the baby x x

MagpieCursedTea · 31/12/2015 20:40

Happy new year my lovelies! Hope you're all spending your nights doing something fun. Thanks for all your support, it means so much. Here's hoping 2016 is the year of the bfp!

Woodpigeon my DS was conceived on my third cycle of clomid. Fx three is the lucky number for you too!

Welcome crusading! Sounds like a painful couple of months. Hope this is your cycle!

Kir glad to hear another positive vit B story. How are you doing?

Soda the sonographer seemed more concerned about the lining than the cyst. Apparently unless it's above 5cm (I think) they don't worry as its a functional cyst that can be caused by ovulation or the body trying and failing to ovulate (which sounds more like my ovaries!)
Hope you're having a nice time at your in laws despite their dodgy internet connection.

Boris thanks for the hand holding SmileWill mention the vit B, only started it a couple of weeks ago though.

Popping in to wish you lovely ladies a happy new year... Looking forward to seeing lots more Bumsnet BFP's in 2016 Smile

BorisIsBack · 31/12/2015 21:25

Happy new year! I'm starting 2016 with a bad cold. throat so swollen I can't drink and we haven't gone out for the first time ever :( I'm hopeing the rest of 2016 brings me better health and us all our over due bFPs xx

DizzyMerry · 01/01/2016 00:37

Don't apologise magpie. We're all here to support each other and this is a great place to share our worries. I've had mid cycle bleeding a couple of times and my GP wasn't worried but it was checked out with a scan and smear as soda says to clear all bases. You're in the right hands lovely.

Soda I'm fine thanks for asking. AF not here yet but she will be as I have my usual pre AF cramps. Any sign of ov yet?

Welcome crusading. 2016 is the year!

Hope you feel better soon boris.

  • hope you're all ok. How is baby chops doing?

Happy new year and let's make 2016 a year of bfps for us all.

Kellz92 · 01/01/2016 02:04

Happy new year xxx

DizzyNorthernBird · 01/01/2016 08:20

happy new year bumsnetters!

I hope everyone had a great evening, whatever you were doing!

I fell asleep on the sofa and only woke up when DP changed channels and I heard Ben Ben chiming! I had a long day yesterday, 12 hour shift and I'd been up since 03.30 for work.....happy new year to me!!
DP and I had a lovely dinner at home and then decided to watch fifty shades of grey......what a pile of shit! Almost as bad as the book and at one point I thought DP was going to throw the remote at the telly when Annastaaaaasia bit her lip for the millionth time! Lol Grin

I'm either 12 or 14 dpo today. Had a temp spike this morning but it could be meaningless. If I am 14dpo I should see spotting tonight....if not I'm going to have to sit the weekend out and if no spotting by Monday I'll poas. I'm not too fussed this month as I've got my scan a week on Tuesday. I've had zero symptoms so there's no point in getting my hopes up. Next month is cycle 12.

DizzyNorthernBird · 01/01/2016 08:32

boris does that mean you've caught DP's man flu then.....yuck. I hope you feel better today Flowers

sammy sorry to hear the clinic are making you wait another month. How utterly shit. You've done enough waiting now. FX this means a valentines bfp for you xx

waves at grads

Welcome back woodpigeeon!

dizzym I thought you said af was due on Thursday? Fx the no-show is a good sign!

magpie I hope your spotting is slowing down. How miserable. When I had the implant I spotted for the best part of 9 months until I told the GP to take the fucker out. I was spending a fortune on tampax and panty liners!! Feeling your pain, I hope you can get it sorted out soon.

kellz, how's the chart looking? Any sign of a thermal shift yet?

Welcome to crusading!

Hello to everyone else!

Pixa · 01/01/2016 08:51

Happy New Year all!

I'm wishing you every happiness and lots of bum-on-pillow/cock o'clock time in 2016.

Beansprout30 · 01/01/2016 12:19

Happy New Year all, I hope 2016 brings you all a bfp x
