Hi all.... as the 2ww buddies thread has got so long... thought we'd start a new one .. cd13 now... waiting for ovulation (next 2/3 days) and will then be back on the 2ww! How's everyone doing?

If you got pains and ewcm around day 9 then it's more than possible you ovulate early jords... lots of people do... you can probably test early but it may be better to hold out as long as you can... maybe seeing if you have any decimate signs... we're all with you... it is stupidly confusing.... this is supposed to be easy and natural x

I'm so blagged I knew I should of used the opks lol!! Yeah I'll 'try' to hold out, don't hold me too it though 😂 the thing is I never get this emotional over silly things, especially not this far away from Af. @mammabear4 yeah same here with the Mc I can't get it out of my mind that I should be 30 weeks!! Everywhere I look there seems to be big pregnant bumps or newborns it's driving me crazy😔

lisara79 · 20/04/2017 11:33

Same here Jords... two of my friends have 2 week old sons... three girls at work are pregnant and a few friends have quite young babies... DH says he's changing my name to Baby News as all that I seem to yell him him is that someone else is pregnant or has given birth...

@lisara79 @Jords0105 SO glad to have found others feeling exactly the same as me! Feel like 2017 has been the year every single person I know has announced they're having a baby!!! Was so hoping to join them, and I'm same as you Jords keep thinking should be 16 weeks now. Really hard not to dwell on it when you've planned your year out and it's all been snatched away from you so cruelly Sad
Hey ho onto 2018 for us (much better year imo - hate odd numbers!) major FX for Jan/Feb babies xxx

Jords0105 · 20/04/2017 15:41

The thing is I had no idea silent miscarriages existed until it happened to me.. Because it was my first pregnancy i didn't believe there was anything in the their so i was like 'is there anything there' it took him a while to find it and I knew something was wrong in the waiting room before I even went in. He just said it so casually 'there's a baby but no heartbeat' I get that he probably has to say that numerous times a week but he could of been a bit more sensitive. Luckily though I managed to get a scan picture which makes me feel a tiny bit better❤️

Jords0105 · 20/04/2017 15:42

Sorry for the rant btw guys just feel crap x

lisara79 · 20/04/2017 16:08

Jords... iv e only ever had one pregnancy (chemical a long time ago) but I've heard bad things about early pregnancy Care in general... a little more understanding and kindness wouldn't go amiss. xx

BlueSkies87 · 20/04/2017 18:38

Oh Jords Sad I'm so sorry for your loss and for the way you were treated. That is so horrid and all women in the position you were in deserve better Flowers

Jords0105 · 20/04/2017 18:48

Thanks guys, sorry to hear lisara cruel world ey! We'll all get there x

lisara79 · 20/04/2017 20:20

We will Jords, and don't ever feel the need to apologise for ranting or moaning... that's what we're here for x

littlemimosa · 20/04/2017 20:27

Oh Jords, i'm sorry you had to go through that. How traumatic for you.
I think you're right, they see it so often it's just like making toast to them.
How far along were you/did you think you were?
Rant away. Get it all out, it's what this forum is for. Hugs x

mammabear4 · 20/04/2017 20:44

Jords how awful they could have been more sensitive Flowers sending lots of hugs. For me it was just an empty sac no baby. Was 8 weeks but sac had stopped growing at 5 and they said it was a "blighted ovum" when baby doesn't start to develop at all. On one hand I'm saying to myself there was never even a baby so no point in getting upset. On the other it still feels like such a horrid loss, left me with such an emptiness I'm sure everyone experiences whether a chemical pregnancy or further along it's still a loss and entitled to mourn it. Really hope we all have positive news soon! Xx
I have a ball to go to with my husband - another officer wife has been emailing me about dresses. Of course she's 24 weeks pregnant and looking at maternity dresses. These annoying happy upduffed women are everywhere!!! Angry

BlueSkies87 · 20/04/2017 20:44

Feel like we are definitely due some BFPs this month and I am really crossing my fingers for you all. Can't wait for the 'is it a line?!' photos to start rolling in and we can start celebrating some successes. I am feeling positive, not necessarily for me but for us as a group. Bring on the BFPs Smile

BlueSkies87 · 20/04/2017 20:49

Sorry, mamma, hadn't seen your message until I had posted my last post and it sounded all a bit upbeat considering what you had just said Sad I feel like I am relatively new to this ttc business (although 7 months in doesn't feel that 'new' some days) but I have to say that reading your post I feel humbled. You are all so strong and I think you are all amazing. So much respect for you all x

RhiBee29 · 20/04/2017 20:55

So sorry for the losses Flowers I agree that from what I have heard early pregnancy care is rubbish.

Fingers crossed for lots of lines and bfp's for us all!

mammabear4 · 20/04/2017 21:09

Blue no don't apologise at all the best thing is positivity and moving forward! Can't wait for the pics to start coming in either. Anyone testing any time soon?? Ovia app says for me a week from tomorrow - not sure I'll make it til AF is due on the 2nd May but so determined to hold out til the 28th!! FX for all of us Grin

mammabear4 · 20/04/2017 21:10

P.s. Getting definite aches and am 6dpo. Implantation perhaps?! Hopeful!!

lisara79 · 20/04/2017 21:16

Ovia tells me I can test in 9 days... we'll see... i feel as I always do at this time in the month... or, infact, slightly less symptomy... my boobs hurt and I'm having leg and period type pains but that happens every month x

Jords0105 · 20/04/2017 21:20

Aw thank you guys yous have all made me feel a million times better! Obviously me and my partner aren't over it (never will) especially with it only happening 4 month ago - 2 bloody days before Christmas!! Mimosa it was my 12 week scan they said baby died at 9 weeks so if that was the case do you think there was a heartbeat at some point? Something I've never known. I love looking at the pregnancy tests it makes my day! 😂 I stupidly took a cheapie a couple hours ago incase I did ovulate early and of course it was a bfn!! Although I think baby looked a little smaller than 9 weeks I've attached a picture of my little wasp hope yous don't mind❤️❤️

littlemimosa · 20/04/2017 22:42

((Jords)) of course I don't mind! What a lovely scan picture. But it must be so hard to look at too. It was so recent and to go all the way to 12 weeks is heart breaking. I had a mmc too but I suspected there was something not right early on and booked a private scan at 6/7 weeks. Sure enough a sac but no heartbeat. The sense of loss is massive.
I've heard that they can detect a heartbeat from 6-7 weeks. I hope this info doesn't upset you?
You must grieve but also take heart from the fact that you are young and know you can fall pregnant. Try to look after yourself hun and stay calm x

Jords0105 · 20/04/2017 22:49

@littlemimosa thankyou! Yeah it does upset me every time I look at it but makes me happy at the same time, my sister photocopied the scan and put it into a little bauble for me. My partner gets abit funny about ttc in case it happens again but at the same time he's adamant he wants a baby I've offered to go on contraception until he wants but he said no. I'm hoping it was to do with chromosomal issues instead of anything serious. Yeah I heard that too, surely there must of been a heartbeat for it to get to 9 weeks? Guess I'll never know. Anyway enough of being down before I get upset lol! Got a good feeling for everyone this month xx

Tinkerbell2319 · 20/04/2017 22:54

Is it ok if I join? 1 week into the 2WW - due next Thursday and losing my mind already

Have already booked an appt with my GP to see what the next steps are if this month is a BFN again, have already had a blood test which confirmed ov a couple of months ago

10 months later the 2WW isn't getting any easier 🙄

TTC: #1
Cycle: 10
Probably 7dpo but have quit tracking
CD: 28 (long & irregular cycles can be anywhere from 28-45 days but mostly about 32)

So sorry to hear of losses, beautiful scan picture I can't even begin to imagine the heartbreak Flowers😔

Jords0105 · 20/04/2017 23:34

Welcome tinkerbell, are you using opks or anything to track ovulation? So stressful isn't it the months fly by! Thank you, thought it would get a little easier by the day and oh wasn't I wrong x

BlueSkies87 · 21/04/2017 07:21

Oh Jords, thank you for sharing your scan photo with us. I love that you wanted to share it and it is a lovely photo. I'm glad that sharing your experience with us has helped you to feel a bit better.

Welcome tinkerbell, my DH and I are on cycle 7 and I understand what you mean about the 2ww not getting any easier. Fortunately I am quite busy at work which is helping. Have you got anything you could do as a distraction? Maybe time to take up a new hobby or start a new book Smile

Jords0105 · 21/04/2017 10:14

Thankyou @blueskies87 I've just took a cheapie and you know when its like a line wants to show but it's too early? 😂 I've tried to take a picture but I just look like a crazy lady! Probably just wishing it there..
