SQUARE ONE TO GRADUATES all aboard the fertile train, destination BFP 👍🏼

Rollover thread

Jen and Footy, hope you enjoyed Fuck week and good luck for a Christmas BFP.

Lykke and Earth, your health is the most important thing so I agree if you need medication then so be it. Pregnancy can do funny things to mood and antenatal depression can be as bad as postnatal depression but not as well recognized.

Hi nim sorry AF got you but glad to hear you are okay. Know what you mean about August baby. Here's hoping it'll be September due date for you.

Day 16 and OPK is positive again. We have DTD four days in a row now, think DH is quite enjoying it

Hope everyone is doing well

Hi all! Cd10 here and my temps have been a lot better this time, very similar to my first cycle where I got my bfp. Also feeling better each day so dtd as much as possible! Even managed a lovely day shopping with my mum today! Doing cheapie opks every day and steadily getting darker so all looking good. Trying to focus on all of that and not the nagging worries in the back of my mind. So positive thoughts.

earth like others said you need to be happy and healthy and that includes mental health to have a successful pregnancy so try not to beat yourself up to much if you do need to use some meds!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you footy hopefully change in temps this month is a good thing also yes to Christmas bfp!

jam so glad you got your positive OPK and that dh isn't getting too knackered out lol! Just keep going the bfp will come. Positive thoughts!

nim sorry about cold hope you are feeling better now.

Also has anyone read the Harry Potter books? If you have when Moony keeps shouting "constant vigilance"? I keep shouting like that in my head but "positive baby making thoughts" lol. Maybe I've totally lost it but it makes me laugh and breaks whatever ttc funk is taking over.

My boys are massive Harry Potter fans! Beagle, hilarious thinking. Yes good to keep positive. Went to see fantastic beasts today which was actually bit scary for me was very good though. Didn't think of babies once.

Hi Nim, so sorry you didn't get BFP this cycle. I guess might take a couple of weeks to settle down after your MC. On positive note.. Sept babies are better! My ds is sept baby and he is doing very well at school at being the oldest. Aug babies are the youngest in their school year. Also sept nice time coming into autumn rather that 30 degrees Aug. So keep with those thoughts. Glad u had time to catch up with old friends. Good to let your hair down once in awhile.

Well done jam, great efforts your way! My DH def stepped up recently too. I can't wait til after ovulation so I can have a break!

Oooh footy I've not seen that yet. Hoping to go this week now I'm feeling better. Good that you've had a nice distraction!

Sept babies definitely better! My mum keeps sulking if I have a summer baby because she's crocheted a million baby blankets lol

Cd11
Temp 36.90! Off the richter scale!
It's not coming down so I've had high temps for 7days so I'm thinking I've ovulated. Not had any positives all week!?
Two bad headaches which feel like progesterone ones! So I think I'm not going to stand a chance if I ovulated on cd4! Only started dtd then and gravity was against me.

?

Why are my cycles not straight forward eh? If I ovulated then at cd4 I'd be 7dpo? Unless I suddenly drop temp soon I'd be due on next week. What?! Argggh

Bless your mum beagles and her blankets

Footy isn't it good your temps are up hon? Hopefully one of those rides will be your egg and now you are staying nice and hot?

Been for a nice walk in the woods today, the colours were lovely. I felt quite emotional reflecting on a year of TTC. I think I've ovulated and my hormones are shifting. Reckon I'm 1 DPO today. Will DTD tonight if we feel like it.

Yes would be good if it's a BFP brewing Jem, just not feeling hopeful if I ovulated that early. Not enough time for the egg to grow.

Oh well, nothing I can do now. I'll keep spinning on this roundabout til it happens.

I'd like to knit beagles I might take it up if I get a BFP!

Hi Tee another week closer to your scan woop woop

Lykke how u doing?

Cd11
Banging headache all day today (second day in row)!
Blooming hormones!
Tomorrow's a new day

If anyone is interested, Panorama tonight is about Fertility Clinics. I've just popped it on record.

Got my ultrasound this morning, currently glugging water, fighting the urge to wee! Wish me luck...

Good luck Jam! I found it quite uncomfortable as was so full of water.. I was like please stop pressing there otherwise I'll pee my pants

Thanks for tip I'll also record it!

Hey everybody, I'm afraid this is not going to be a happy post, sorry in advance
Square zero over here.
I followed my instincts and went for the early scan, should have been 8.2 weeks today. No heartbeat, baby stopped progressing around 6 weeks. Would love to say that I'm feeling strong and hopeful, but I'm utterly broken and basically a mess.
No bleeding so in the process of getting an appointment where hopefully they will give me something to bring on the miscarriage in full.
Can't believe this has happened, really thought I was being paranoid and silly. I do feel like the pregnancy symptoms were tailing off, but then I had very few symptoms with DS, so was just hoping it was my body just coping really well.
How am I back to the start, I feel so heartbroken.
Sorry girls, needed to get it out of my system! I'll be back on track soon and right there with you all doing opks etc.

It all went well :) She had to do it internally in the end as it wasn't clear enough externally. It was fine! Having a full bladder pressed on was the worst bit! Would much rather have the internal one if I had to have another.

Anyway she said it all looks completely fine and normal. She showed me the corpus luteum on my ovary where I recently ovulated. All good.

So I have to have another blood test to check my prolactin levels and then I'm back to the GP to discuss results and be referred...

Oh no Tee I can't believe this. I actually can't believe it, you poor love. We are right there with you supporting you lovely, I'm so so sorry that this one didn't stick. Massive hugs

I'm sorry my post about the scan was at the same time you were posting, so I didn't see it. Ahh Tee I just can't believe it, I had no doubt it my mind that you were progressing well and we would be seeing your pregnancy develop. I'm so sorry honey. I hope you get your appointment quickly xxx

Oh Tee, so so sorry to hear it! Any woman's worst nightmare and I'm so sorry it happened to you! Hope you get your appointment soon, in the meantime look after yourself. Sending big big hugs 🤗 hugs 🤗 💐💐💐💐

I can't believe what I read. I haven't been on here for a while only to open and read such sad news. I'm so sorry tee .sorry my dear. praying that you will be strong and you will be fine. Sending you loads of hugs .

Waves to all .hope you are all ok on this rocky journey.

This is awful to hear, so so sorry tee. I really can't quite believe it and feel so very upset for you. Nothing I can say to make you feel any better but sending you a massive hug and will be here for you if you need to let out your feelings.

I'm so sorry tee that's awful! We are here for you. Take some time don't put pressure on yourself to be positive just take each hour and say as it comes.

Sending hugs

Thanks so much for your messages girls. I'm still in shock a bit, really thought I was just going for peace of mind. I could tell as soon as she zoomed in on my womb, there was too much black space, then she said she couldn't see what was happening so had to do an internal scan, knew the wheels were in motion then. DH came home straight away and has been very supportive. I just feel sick with disappointment. GP was really sweet (could only get telephone appointment). Have to go down to the early pregnancy unit first thing and just wait to be seen. They will do a confirmation scan and advise me of my options. I just need to get back to trying again and feel like I'm getting somewhere again.
Jam don't apologise, I'm glad one of our scans went well today!! x

Really feel for you tee. Hope you get a peaceful night xx

Oh Tee - that really really sucks. I am so so sorry to hear that news...

Hope you can get some rest tonight tee will be thinking of you tomorrow

Thinking of you this morning lovely tee I hope you are okay as you can be and mrtee is supporting you

Oh Tee I have nothing to say other than I'm really sorry and I'm another one thinking of you this morning.

Thinking of you too Tee.
