Thanks guy... things have moved on a bit since this morning... I called the out of hours GP this afternoon because I'm cramping worse than I ever have (except for when I had the MC) but spotting rather than a proper AF. She suspects a chemical or it might have something to do with that test I had on Thursday. I told her about that faint second lines on Monday and Tuesday and the symptoms I've had during the TWW. She doesn't think it's AF so I'm going to see my GP tomorrow to get check out. I have felt so unwell today. Sad

God, all I've done is moan since Thursday. I'm sorry.

Sorry to hear that Fran, hope you get some answers from your GP tomorrow. Will be thinking of you.

Frantasic · 10/04/2016 22:56

Thank you Raro. How are you? Haven't seen you for a few days. X

lovewatchingrainfall · 11/04/2016 07:24

Aww Fran sorry to read that. Let's hope the Doctors give you some answers this morning.

Sending you some hugs.

Fran, I'm sorry to hear you're having to visit the gp. Fx for you.

Frantasic · 11/04/2016 12:57

Hi... Just got back. Dr was v good. Did another pg test. Which was bfn. Had a feel of my tummy and my right side was a bit tender so she did an internal. That was a grim experience when bleeding, even if it's light. She's almost certain it's a very early MC, and to be honest that's what it feels like. She wants me to go for a bloody test and go to EPU to see if they can pick anything up on a scan.

Thank you so much for the support guys. I'm sorry I've hijacked the thread with this.

lovewatchingrainfall · 11/04/2016 13:15

Aww Fran sorry for the outcome. Let us know how you get on. x

Oh Fran, just catching up. You've nothing to apologise for. What an awful experience. I hope you get some answers. Be thinking of you x

lovewatchingrainfall · 11/04/2016 15:01

I took a CB today and I finally got my BFP however I keep getting cram like pain so I'm feeling like it's not going to stick. Hope your all okay. Sending hugs Fran

Aww congratulations Love. The cramps are probably just ligaments or implatation. Try it to worry. Flowers

Thanks Little. Xxx

Frantasic · 11/04/2016 17:38

And thanks Soozc xxx

lovewatchingrainfall · 11/04/2016 18:53

Thank you Fran.

Did you manage to go to the EPU? Hope your okay. x

Not yet! I phoned the miscarriage association and ask if there was any point as it was so early. She said a lot of people just manage it at home as chemicals are hard to detect once the MC starts. If I'm still having ridiculous cramps tomorrow I'll go. I just slept all afternoon because I felt so ill when I got home.

Me aside, this has been such a lucky thread. It's lovely to think of all these little Christmas babies. Smile

LittleHeart2014 · 11/04/2016 19:45

Fran, I hope the cramps ease off and you can get a good sleep tonight.

Love, congrats Smile x

Frantasic · 13/04/2016 10:41

How's it going Little?

LittleHeart2014 · 13/04/2016 22:18

Sorry I've been quiet. Work is crazy and I've started a course. Any spare moment I get I'm sleeping Grin I feel so dizzy and poorly. So good to see the news on the other thread Fran. Have you done a digital? I did a first response and got a line but with the cheapies I wasn't getting much at all so I bought more digitals to see if things have moved on. My GP planted a negative seed and I find myself worrying it's not a viable pregnancy. My OH isn't too impressed with what I've spent on tests so I pointed out how lucky we are to have been testing for just one cycle! Hope everyone is well. It's been quite a lucky thread Smile x

Rarotonga · 13/04/2016 22:55

Sorry for only just getting back to you, it's been all go go go at home and work! Sorry to hear your outcome Fran :-( Hope you are doing ok. I got my AF on Tuesday so am onto the next month... Had a huge glass of wine on Tuesday night after avoiding it during the wait. I think the nausea might be related to the conception vitamins I've been taking- the dates correlate and nothing else has changed..
Congratulations to those with BPFs, I wish you all very well :-) Fx to anyone still waiting or moving on to the next month

Frantasic · 13/04/2016 23:10

Oh I'm sorry Raro that's really rubbish... Hope you're ok?

I had 3 BFPs today, so God only knows what's going on with me. I'm going to the EPU tomorrow to find out. The second line is very faint considering I'm 4 weeks 3 days ish so I don't hold out much hope. This is the only one I could capture on a photo.

Rarotonga · 13/04/2016 23:19

I just spotted your other thread Fran, and really hope you get positive news. Will keep my fingers crossed for you.

I'm ok thanks, have only just started TTC this cycle. I've been warned it might take some time as I have a medical condition that can impact conception/fertility so am trying to stay calm and see how things pan out. Thanks for asking though :-)

lovewatchingrainfall · 14/04/2016 05:02

That doctor sounds awful little. They are meant to help not make you feel worse. I dread to think what my DH would say if he knew what I have spent on tests.

Fran let us know how you get on at the EPU. We are roughly the same dates Smile.

Sorry to hear about you AF, sending you some ThanksWine.

I'm trying my best to ignore what she said. I'm not naive, I know there are risks, but my chances are as good as anyone else's so I don't know why the comment was made. It was almost a "don't get your hopes up" kind of attitude. The rubbing her wooden desk for luck seemed dramatic!

Anyway, I feel like crap and I'm told that's a good sign, so just need to focus on that. OH wants us to have an early scan for reassurance and so he can tell his parents. How soon though?

Hope you're all well and good luck for this cycle Raro x

lovewatchingrainfall · 14/04/2016 07:34

You can have the scans from 6 weeks but I think being anything from 7 weeks you will see more. So would try to aim from 7weeks plus as more to see. Good luck if you have one and let us know how you get on.

Good morning everyone.
I'm currently about halfway through my 2WW and would love to join you on this confusing little ride. I'm using the Ovia app, but have PCOS and only just started adding my data the past two or three weeks. I got a +OPK last Thursday and we made sure we covered that fertile window, plus more as we were having a little romantic weekend in Florence Wink
We suffered a MMC about 8 weeks ago, but decided to get straight back onto it. hence the 2WW now.

Fran - What a ride you've been through. So confusing isn't it Flowers Please let us know how you get on today won't you. Sending you oodles of positivity.

Contratulations to the other BFPs! Wonderful news!

I've just been reading through trying to check our all of your symptoms and comparing them to mine. I think yesterday would have been 6DPO and I also had that dragging feeling lower down last night (like an impending AF), as someone mentioned upthread. I 've had an almost unbearable metal taste in my mouth for the past three days so if I'm not upduffed, then I need to see a dentist quick smart!
Mouth is very watery, and I had a strong need for a can of lemonade yesterday which I never really drink, unless hungover.
Also, quite a few extra wee trips, and very mild twinges in my left boob yesterday and day before.

But I always wonder if I get all these sympoms anyway but I don't usually realise.

I guess the only thing we can do it wait it out...

Forgot to mention insane thirst in the evenings!
