@Sloeberrygin maternity services in Milton Keynes are a little bit shit. Not allowed to self refer for anything! Feel like a fraud taking an emergency GP appointment when there could be someone in real need.
My surgery have made me a general appointment for May 17th! Yes you heard that correctly!
However I can't really slate them. If I stamp a bit I always get seen the same day or at least a phone call.

I'm just being impatient! AF is around the corner I'm sure

YellowDaffodils86 · 17/04/2018 20:46

@weasledee @hayleyfx sorry😔
I feel af is not far away, lost my positive feeling, dont know why.
Dying to POAS but too early at 9/10dpo.
Does anybody get frustrated with this tww ttc shit and think i already did it, why am i here again so soon!😒

BabynameEdie · 17/04/2018 21:01

@weasledee and @hayleyfx am so sorry for you both. Rubbish rubbish news. Hope you're both ok & having a well deserved bottle of wine 🍷🍸
@YellowDaffodils86 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️me! Totally with you on that. It's just not fair (stamps foot👣)
I've also totally lost positive feeling. This month is 100% not my month - crampy, grumpy, gassy (!) and other AF signs hit me early evening. Urgh. Hey ho. Sorry you're feeling the same but it's supportive to know there are others feeling similar..

BabynameEdie · 17/04/2018 21:03

Ps full disclosure... hubby and I are drinking G&Ts and have just ordered an Indian 😜

L1zz13 · 17/04/2018 21:07

Sorry for your bfns ladies. But cheers for the wine!

Daffodil77 · 17/04/2018 21:16

@babynameEdie I've had a 250ml glass of wine and I'm very tipsy. I'm too far down the road to give up life during tww any more. Hope your Indian was good!

weasledee · 17/04/2018 21:26

Thanks all, full on cramps just to add to the misery Smile
Feel a bit better now, spent the evening with my DC and makes me realise I have a lot to be very grateful for....
Giving myself a time limit of 3 more months and then I'm gonna "hang up"
the uterus.... Smile

@PassTheAfterEights @peachesarenom here's the link to the cream www.wellsprings-health.com/pages/serenity-natural-progesterone-cream/.
But please do your own research. I got my bfp first month using it, but don't just go by what I say. Because there could be negative side effects.

My dr said it probably didn't do anything except have a placebo effect which made me relax. But hey I'll take that and I'm still taking it now.

Sorry @weasledee and @hayleyfx bfns are so shit especially after definite lines. Sending hugs! Xx

Primrose16 · 17/04/2018 21:34

I’m sorry @weasledee and @hayleyfx I’m sorry that your tests are confusing. Have you tried the cheapie again?

peachesarenom · 17/04/2018 22:10

Thanks Cakelaur I agree always important to do your own research before taking something new.

hayleyfx · 17/04/2018 22:32

Aww thank you all ladies! I’ve got my SO and these wee faces to thank for my positivity < ❤️ (and chocolate!! Grin)
@Claire138 oh cycle buddy haha! It’s so frustrating not having a clue where we are. I only have one frer left and no cheapies 🤦‍♀️
@weasledee I’m so sorry. Sending hugs Flowers
@PassTheAfterEights oh I know how you feel. It’s rubbish. I’m so worried that I just don’t trust positives anymore, I don’t allow myself to! I hope this stops for us and fingers crossed for BFP’s and sticky beans. 🤞
@Primrose thank you, I’m out of cheapies now and only one frer left so I think I might just wait it out and see if af arrives!

Love the pet sharing!! We have to cats too. Who are my babies. But they're not talking to me since the pup arrived! 😭

HidCat · 18/04/2018 07:56

@L1zz13 I noticed that my resting heart rate went up at implantation then dropped a few weeks after Mc. Not noticed anything in normal cycles though.

Loving the pet pics - I don't have one unfortunately, hubby not up for it (grumpy git), not even a hamster!

PassTheAfterEights · 18/04/2018 09:10

@cakelaur @peachesarenom thanks and will have a read, very grateful for the tip x

@hayleyfx hear hear.

no sign of AF yesterday, first time late in living memory 🙄 unfortunate 0513 wee too so the clearblue trial test i have to do today won't exactly be FMU - dreading POAS basically!

loving the furry faces this morning, scared of outing myself with mine - wouldn't mind at all to you lot but in case someone else AS'd me in the future! reached peak pre-AF paranoia i think

Melamine · 18/04/2018 09:13

Flowers to all the disappointed ladies this week & continued luck to all. I have a Q- do/did people count post-mc CD1 as the day you passed the sac? I just reinstalled my period tracker, though I know these things are far from an exact science after mc!

PassTheAfterEights · 18/04/2018 09:15

@melamine I counted first day of bleeding (there was no spotting for me) as day 1, and the rest of the cycle played as normal - but normally very regular and predictable.

strawberrye · 18/04/2018 09:19

@Daffodil77 @hayleyfx @Claire138 @Boboelephant @BabyNameEdie
thanks for all your replies previously. Unfortunately AF arrived right on time for our anniversary yesterday. Onto next month, now been TTC for >6 months and at only age 26 feeling like a bit of a failure. Hope everyone is feeling a bit more positive than me this morning - I will cheer up in a couple of days, always feel like this in the days before and first day or so of AF.

hayleyfx · 18/04/2018 09:24

@DaisyMay adorable!! I’m just animal mad in general haha!
@Melamine I bled for 2 weeks before actually passing the sac so I counted the day I passed the sac as CD1 and I ovulated on CD21. AF came 12 days later, so it ended up being a fairly normal cycle which I didn’t expect!

hayleyfx · 18/04/2018 09:26

@strawberrye oh so sorry that af arrived. I hope you’re feeling more positive soon. Fingers crossed for May 🤞

Lovemysparkle · 18/04/2018 09:28

@weaseledee & @hayleyfx/-so sorry for af/bfn do something nice for yourself I know it won’t change your feelings/disappointment but Just to take the nip off sending love❤️ Af in its full blown glory for me very heavy & lots of stomach pain😩 sending hugs to all you ladies on this lovely sunny day 💐💐💐

Boboelephant · 18/04/2018 10:30

@YellowDaffodils86 sorry you are feeling a bit negative. Still fingers crossed for you! I also feel like that except I also throw in a bit of why is it taking so long and why is it so bloody hard!
@BabynameEdie they could be pregnancy symptoms too!! Are you still testing daily?
@PassTheAfterEights have you POAS yet? Fingers crossed!!!
@strawberrye and @Lovemysparkle so sorry that af got you. Enjoy the sun and lots of wine!!!
I'm starting to feel terrified. Very aware test day is tomorrow and not sure if I can bear to do it and see a bfn.
I have a question re temping. The last few days I keep waking up at 3am ish to pee so I temp then and then take it again when I wake up properly. I record the later one to keep the same time and it's usually the same as the earlier one. Yesterday it was 0.25 lower at 3am and then the same at 6:30am. I actually did it 3 times in a row at 6:30 and without moving it was 36.2 then 36.47 then 36.46. Not sure which one to record. If I do the lower one it dips below cover line and goes up again today. If I do higher it has gone down slightly today. I'm so confused!!! Thoughts??

PassTheAfterEights · 18/04/2018 10:53

I have @boboelephant - "not pregnant" 👌🙄🙈😭💀🔫

No experience with temping but hope it means good things for you, good luck for a swift few hours til tomorrow lovely x

Boboelephant · 18/04/2018 10:57

Oh rubbish @PassTheAfterEights! So sorry. Really not sure I want to test. Ignorance is bliss and all that!!

OP posts:
weasledee · 18/04/2018 11:26

Bobo I always recorded the first temp of the day and used that. So I would use your first at 6:30am

Bit the bullet and booked a docs appointment, have to wait 2 weeks though. Going to see what suggestions he has about these miscarriages and see if I can get referred to the clinic..
Feeling better today, we've decided 3 more months and then that's it. Smile
