Oops the other one got full before new one made. Kept the same name to make it easier to find.

@timewaitsfornowoman sorry for your loss and you find yourself in this group. Glad you feeling positive getting some conception bits.
@Sloeberrygin and @cakelaur sorry for the BFN

Still no AF for me. No testing this morning. Didn’t feel in a mood to do it to see BFN. I’m feeling so well no cramping etc to suggest AF on way. But I’m sure it will come

Kate8989 · 10/03/2018 18:15

Claire138- I’ve been getting bad pains on my left side since MC. Nobody knows what it is... so annoying isn’t it 😢. X

TheDinosaurRoars · 10/03/2018 18:41

@Claire138 I get horrific ovulation pains on my left side and it can be incredibly painful. My right side is fine.

Sloeberrygin · 10/03/2018 19:32

@Claire138 I get ovulation pain, it's such a specific pain plus bloating, it's unmistakeable as anything else for me. Sorry it's painful for you this month.

@Primrose16 you never know, you're not out yet. Maybe a day or two not testing then you might even be rewarded with a nice clear positive.

NoCatsHere · 10/03/2018 19:43

I can sometimes feel ov pain, but it’s not constant so no idea what that means!

I fell pregnant straight after my first mc only to have a mmc at 10 weeks, they assured me it was nothing to do with conceiving quickly. I went on to try again straight away but sadly that was a year ago now and I haven’t even had the slightest of whiff of getting pregnant. Still I’m hopeful and carry on chucking back the folic and other vits in the vain hope I can fall pregnant before I hit 40 later this year!

Boboelephant · 10/03/2018 19:54

Thanks @Claire138

NoCatsHere · 10/03/2018 20:07

Sorry I meant ov pain was not consistent not constant...in that some months I feel it other months nothing! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Cakelaur · 10/03/2018 22:10

Good evening ladies. Today I fell in love!! It's the first time I've felt happiness since I lost the baby. Today I met my new baby. Wanted to share some pics of him with you.
Maybe it'll put a smile on your faces. Xx

Thanks @primrose16 @keepinghopeful @kate8989 @thedinosaurroars @sloeberrygin @nocatshere thanks girls for the replies, I was starting to think it wasn’t normal. I used to always get it on my right quite bad but this was a corker from the left this month!

@cakelaur 😍😍😍 what a little cutie!!! I’m sure you can’t wait to have him home with you!

Boboelephant · 11/03/2018 07:13

Ah @Cakelaur he's gorgeous!!! Look at that little face ❤

Daffodil77 · 11/03/2018 07:41

@cakelaur you are not helping my dog broodiness!!! He is so cute. Does he have a name? I can't remember if you've already said.

strawberrye · 11/03/2018 07:49

@Cakelaur how adorable! When do you get to bring him home?

Cakelaur · 11/03/2018 07:50

Thanks ladies.
@Daffodil77 there's still a couple unreserved in his litter!!! 😈 he's called teddy. 😍🐶

Still no AF for me this morning! No idea what's going on. BFN this morning. AF is either two days late or due tomorrow. Or my body is so out of whack that my temps are wrong. 🤷‍♀️

Daffodil77 · 11/03/2018 07:58

Oh yes now I remember! I like it!

peachesarenom · 11/03/2018 08:04

@Cakelaur Teddy is so lovely! -and getting so big!

zarala · 11/03/2018 08:43

@Timewaitsfornowoman thanks love! I don't really feel strong,just feel like I've been abused by my own body 🙄 it's very confusing as there's no one/thing I can direct my anger at. God? The universe? Meh. It is what it is. We will prevail!

Also I like your toolkit - I'll get on that soon I'm sure!

I also heard the same as @Boboelephant that after a d&c the uterus is a clean slate and you're more fertile - so go for it ! Fingers crossed for you !

@Boboelephant - ah I hope the O spotting would continue, what a fantastic help that would be. But to tease us with only 2-3 months after the ERPC isn't fair! As I'm taking a 3-4month hiatus to get tested etc

@weasledee - sorry to hear you went through that too, we were so convinced that it was going to work for us this last time. So shit isn't it

@Cakelaur omg he is amazing!!!!!!

Have any of you ladies seen any specialists for MC? If so- anyone you recommend?

weasledee · 11/03/2018 09:16

Urgh continuing with the crazy symptom spotting.... I have really really bad cramps today (9DPO) and I also wasted my time on a frer which was obvs negative!! GrinConfused
Anyone else symptom spotting? :)

peachesarenom · 11/03/2018 09:37

I am weasledee boobs v sore. I'm 11 dpo. Sperm would have needed to live for 7 days though so prolly quite unlikely!

Cakelaur · 11/03/2018 09:42

@Primrose16 we're in the same boat babe. I've had my 5th bfn!! Getting bored of it now. I just want AF to show.

Anyone else have pinching on right side of abdomen? I've had this on and off since the Erpc. I'm not sure if there's an issue. It was my first noticeable symptom of being pregnant. But I've had it on and off both months since the procedure. But generally only in the tww. I'm wondering if I should have it looked at. It's a cross between an ache and a pinch.

Boboelephant · 11/03/2018 09:43

@zarala come to think of it my spotting was a few days before ovulation. Almost to announce 'you're fertile!' Hopefully yours is different and will continue for you. 🤞 I haven't seen anyone as I've had an EP and a MMC so as the docs are quick to point out, they are not related and I've just been unlucky. Not a huge silver lining! 😣
@weasledee I thought we were the same dpo but you seem to have jumped a day ahead of me? Lucky duck! I too am symptom spotting like a loon. Just can't help it! I looked back on past months and realised I usually have a chin breakout at 9dpo so if no pimple tomorrow my hopes are going to skyrocket. 🤔

Boboelephant · 11/03/2018 09:50

@Cakelaur and @Primrose16 I hope you get your bfps or af soon. Obviously fingers crossed for the bfp! Waiting is just the worst though!
Fingers crossed @Peachesarenom and @weasledee
@Cakelaur it can't hurt to get it checked out if you're worried. I defi notice lots more random pains since but for me it's pretty much all in the back.
