Hi All,

Jumping over from the December bus as AF has arrived in full force this morning. Somehow it’s more upsetting each month... so everything crossed that this is the last time!

Age: 32
TTC #1
Cycle 4
BFP due 17/01...

@HoneyCake86 I hope things settle down & you find out what’s happening soon - best of luck!

FruitandNutty · 18/12/2017 12:04

Omg @Honey!! That’s amazing! So did you have a bfn in between your last +ve bfp? That’d explain the + opk... I’ve heard bleeding can be v common in early pregnancy. How many dpo are you now? xx

HoneyCake86 · 18/12/2017 12:34

No the line from the pregnancy test the day after the bleeding started, was almost gone, just a shadow barely even a squinter so i stopped testing. Just accepted that i was starting a new cycle. Then this. Id be 24dpo now

LookingAtTheStars89 · 18/12/2017 12:38

@Foreverretro. Your Af/bfp is due the same fate as mine. I'm on cd3 and flo is starting to ease up now. I think Christmas has made it slightly mor3 upsetting for me this month. Fingers crossed this is our cycle x

HoneyCake86 · 18/12/2017 12:43

The bleeding was so heavy i dont understand how it could have survived. Doctor is taking some bloods later today and again thurs to check hormones and will arrange a scan. Im a nervous wreck Blush

Foreverretro · 18/12/2017 12:47

@HoneyCake86 I imagine you would be! Try and stay as calm as you can and hopefully everything will go ok for you as the week goes on.

Everything crossed!!

Foreverretro · 18/12/2017 12:49

@HoneyCake86 if they are taking bloods this aft then hopefully you should know at least something tomorrow... hopefully!!

Foreverretro · 18/12/2017 12:53

@LookingAtTheStars89 yeah Christmas is horrible from this position yeah. I feel really bad whining because it could be so much worse but when you want something so badly... sigh really hoping we’ll get our BFPs at the same time!

This year I have moved house, got married & gone self employed so it really would have been the perfect end to the year... but never mind I suppose!

One of my clients is in clothing/footwear wholesale as well I’m currently doing all the babies orders for next autumn... shoot me 😜

lauraxgirl · 18/12/2017 12:57

@HoneyCake86 Hope everything's okay and you find out sooner rather than later what's going on!! It's easier said than done, I know, but try and stay positive and just don't think the worst 😊

@Owlpatrol Thank you! I have some cheap ones in, will go back to that, 5th day of flashing smileys now 😫 I'd rather it have just gone back to being a circle. Had my bloods done today (for hormone check) and she said I'm just probably really fertile - hope she's right

Owlpatrol · 18/12/2017 13:06

@HoneyCake86 sending lots of baby dust either way. Good luck and keep us posted x

Thanks lovely ladies. Im at the hospital having them taken now the gp said it’ll be up to 2 days xx

piglet81 · 18/12/2017 13:21

Good luck...what a rollercoaster for you!

HoneyCake86 · 18/12/2017 13:33

Thanks, it really is! Im in limbo abit.. i accepted that i had a cp but now i feel like its rewinded back to the 2ww 😂🙈 im scared in case it was mc and i haven’t passed it all, cos then id have to have it cleared. But the line was much darker than the original one i got. I just cant explain how id get a bfp after such a massive bleed. Ive never had this before xx

BaliBound · 18/12/2017 13:40

@honeycake86 A friend had something very similar to you, except I believe she found out she was still pregnant later. They thought it was a brand new pregnancy until the scan dated it but she is now 8m into a very healthy pregnancy. Hoping for the same good news for you x

LookingAtTheStars89 · 18/12/2017 13:58

@HoneyCake86. Thinking of You x

HoneyCake86 · 18/12/2017 15:12

Bloods have gone off now, but did a FRER anyway just now. Thats a definite bfp.. just need to find out if its staying or going..

January Bus - New Year, New Bumps Please!
HoneyCake86 · 18/12/2017 15:14

Sorry for going on... im just so stunned 🙈

lauraxgirl · 18/12/2017 15:25

@HoneyCake86 everything crossed for you!! Let us know once you know for sure!!!

HoneyCake86 · 18/12/2017 15:30

Thanks hun Flowers

HaveCourageBeKind · 18/12/2017 16:49

Ohhhh @HoneyCake86 fx you find out what's going on. And don't apologise, if you can't chat on here about your worries then where can you? We are all in the same boat... x

bubblybrit · 18/12/2017 17:20

@LookingAtTheStars89. Second day of flashing smiley....now looking out for the static! Was going to try and test twice a day once flashing smiley appeared but really not had the chance as work is manic as it approaches the end of the year! Trying to stick with dtd every other day but it is knackering so I understand why you and DH have decided to take a break!

@HoneyCake86. Got my fx that everything works out for you xx

HoneyCake86 · 18/12/2017 17:24

Thanks ladies. Hope you get your static soon. Them flashing smileys are becoming notorious in the ttc forums xx

Rioja2511 · 18/12/2017 17:36

I've been a bit out of the loop with this thread as various things going on irl, but just catching up now. @HoneyCake86 I hope you get some answers soon.

For me (CD13) I've been doing OPKs for the last few days but no definitive test line on any of them. Some watery CM but nothing to write home about (haha). I'm sure everything is going to take a while coming off the pill, I'm just being impatient!

Keeping my fingers crossed for all of us Smile

FruitandNutty · 18/12/2017 18:13

Good luck @Honey, really hoping the best for you!!

Had some bloods done recently for some other things and doctor said she would test my cycle day 3 hormone levels too. Had results back and all hormone tests normal, so I’m really pleased at that.

Doc said however that if we haven’t conceived in another few months to go back and they’ll do scans and check out DH too.. we’ve been ttc for 5 months, I’m surprised how proactive they are being so early on, but not complaining..
