TTC after pregnancy loss - thread 15 - Christmas miracles

[TheGrumpySquirrel]

New thread!

Good luck to everyone testing tomorrow! Fingers crossed for you all.

hi to all the new people and sorry you find yourselves here. I am sorry I don't have any wisdom to add to what others have already said. It's just shit isn't it. Every day seems so long while you wait and the only time you know where you stand is when you are on your period.
Hoping we get to hear some good news from the testers tomorrow.
I'm on cd29, no af, no symptoms. Not sure when to expect period as last bleed was my mc and so not even sure I ovulated.
Trying to hold my nerve and not test again as already had two bfns this month.

@Hollymchollyface fingers crossed for you! Hopefully no af and no symptoms is good news.

I am almost 100% sure I'm out now and feeling crushed. About an hour ago I started getting painful stomach cramps which feel exactly like what I get about a day before af arrives. That combined with my chin breakout- more spots today- im pretty sure im not getting my bfp. Ahh dunno if I should test tomorrow now or not as getting a negative is so depressing. 😣

You can slap me for being stupid ladies- tested tonight at 9DPO and BFN of course. It wasn’t even a sensitive test

@Boboelephant oh no! There's still a chance though, fingers crossed! I'm gonna struggle to wait until Friday, it'll probably be negative though.

@Eastend2015 no judgements from me, I tested at 7dpo haha, fingers crossed it's your month though!

Well af due today and no sign yet... have had a couple of 29 day cycles so trying not to get too carried away but still holding out a bit of hope. Lots of love to all of you in the same boat.

Ahh @Eastend2015 the things we do hey? This ttc stuff makes us crazy!
Thanks @DaisyMay25. I really hope there is still a chance!!

Good luck @ek78! Are you having any af or preg symptoms? I'm still trying to be positive!

@DaisyMay25 @Boboelephant I think your crazy rubbed off on me. I was out today and bought some Poundland tests 3 for £1 so I didn't have to waste a real one. I tested at about 3pm and it was a BFN. (I have never used that type of test before- they are so much smaller than they look in the pictures!).

I don't know why I did that, I would have thought a BFP would show by now if it were going to. That said I should perhaps have tried FMU. Anyway- I shall now wait as planned.

I too love a good BFP picture (and even the squinters) and I hope to see some from you all tomorrow!

Haha @Cookiefiend the crazy is spreading- apologies!! 🤣
I'm so sorry you got a bfn but dont think you're out! I'm not too sure when afternoon wee is strong enough but I think if you're only just around af due date combined with diluted urine combined with a 33p test, there is still a chance!
I really am hoping for a squinter tomorrow!!!

What are you using bobo? A FRER? I don’t think there is much point in me testing til fri now

@bobotheelephant I'm really unsure! I thought I was having some symptoms but the BFN the other day made me think it was wishful thinking. I'm going to see what happens tomorrow and if no af will test on Friday morning..

AF finally turned up today.

Fingers crossed for everyone testing tomorrow and Friday.

Yep @Eastend, I have my FRER sitting in the bathroom ready for the morning! Eeeek!!
I'm really not feeling too confident but I think I'm 11dpo tomorrow so I'm crossing everything for a miracle!!

Oh balls! @HoldTightPretendItsAPlan I'm sorry! AF sucks.

Ok- I've gotten too into this now. I am excited to see your results tomorrow. Good luck!

@pioe you sound so similar to me! At least 8 of my friends are also pregnant and all due around same time. I had my mc in September and also would of been joining them.. all the baby showers are starting too and I really thought I'd be pregnant again before they did.. the first of the baby showers is in the 20th which just so happens to be the day af is due but I'm not feeling confident

@Jessicaskype piss off with your spam and stick your HERBS up your bum. Reported

@TheGrumpySquirrel haha I reported it first thing too. How you getting on?

Fine, thank you. I haven't had many symptoms and I haven't had a scan yet so a bit nervous that I may have imagined it all / have another MMC. I'm going to EPU this Saturday for a reassurance scan, I'll be 8+0, quite nervous.

Still reading along and rooting for every one of you x

@TheGrumpySquirrel haha well done!

So I tested this morning at 5am after basically being awake from 3am and stark white bfn. 😢

Sorry @Boboelephant , but you aren't out until you are out. When I was pregnant with DD2 I did a test a few days after my missed period- negative. Assumed my periods were being irregular (had only had one since the birth of DD1 so didn't know how they would return). A couple of weeks later I threw up after sniffing milk in the fridge to see if it was off- took a test and I was pregnant.

I must have ovulated a bit late. Also people produce hcg at different rates so many people won't get an early result (and each pregnancy if different so even if you have before, you might not again).

@Cookiefiend thankyou! I needed to hear that! Stupid thing is I know that I have long cycles abd have never gotten a bfp before af due but I still hold out hope! I didn't test until cd43 with my DS and my last bfp was cd33 and it was so super faint I wasn't sure whether I was imagining it. Today is cd31 so I will try again over the weekend if no af.
