@Lovemysparkle I agree take the month off. Not for mc worries but so you can totally focus on getting married. Bridezilla is very intense. Babyzilla can wait.

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 18:00

@zarala thanks for advice - will be following up on doc's orders! Although may wait til next cycle as feel this one has been my first relatively normal one since mc. Probs AF v nearby anyway so will start afresh next week I imagine. 🤞🤞 for your results

@hayleyfx thanks! I know, silly to have tested really! Am just so bad at waiting 😂
Congrats on OPK! Such a great feeling isn't. Plus with all your well timed JKS'ing 👏👏

@Boboelephant any news on your results?

Sorry @weasledee for bfn 😒 it really sucks every time doesn't it 💕

YellowDaffodils86 · 14/05/2018 18:02

@Martydog sorry its still dragging, i wish there was more i could say to make it all a bit better bit i know there is isnt really. But there is an end and you will get there.

@weasledee Sorry that af may be appearing, are you sure she is definitely on her way?
I think others have answered but yes id take it before.

@Lovemysparkle Ahh nearly your wedding, thats exciting. In July we would have reached our 1yr anniversary already.
I would take the month off, best not to risk anything ruining your big day, the lst thing you need is any worry or upset. Enjoy it and then start a fresh on honeymoon. Thats where all babies are made surely😂

@BabynameEdie Naughty girl 😂still sooo early, plenty of time yet, dont count yourself out just yet!
Its so hard to tell, but the fact you feel different could be a sign!

I am becoming inpatient and bored, just want to know yes or no? Im trying to stay strong until Saturday, i can feel me breaking!

@HidCat i can see why you feel a bit down, thats a bit rubbish, but yes, book a little holiday for yourselves and then you can look forward to that.

@L1zz13 uh so strange and annoying for you. Hopefully after next af you get a fresh start and none of this strange limbo.

@Laney79 i have my fx for you, hopefully all done by the tome holiday comes, so you can enjoy it. You definitely deserve it!

@hayleyfx
Woo ovulation!! Almost as exciting as bfps!!

@zarala thank you for sharing. Interesting to know.

@TedLife so sorry you have had to go through what you have. I mc my first pregnancy too. Being with like minded people deft helps.

@Boboelephant
Good luck for results. Cant believe that was 8 weeks ago already!

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 18:06

@YellowDaffodils86 😂😂 I know!! Really silly and naughty. I just cannot help myself!! Although I do apologise because I think my reckless behaviour is causing others to feel the need to test far too early as well! Don't do it! Hold out! Be the better adult 😂
GAH x

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 18:07

Ps @YellowDaffodils86 but how many days are you now? Surely it's time?!

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 18:17

@TedLife you're definitely in the right place and we have no rules here (that I know of!) 💕 I'm so sorry for you, I had a very similar experience with my first pregnancy in February at 8 weeks and it was earth-shatteringly sad and overwhelming. Please know that it does get easier, particularly once you start ttc again, but only do that when it feels right for you. This is a wonderful place full of love and support.

zarala · 14/05/2018 18:43

@TedLife sorry you find yourself here but you're in a good place here! And as far as I can tell we have NO RULES! Honestly anything goes here- it's a safe place where you can speak your mind we've all been through so much individually that I don't think any of us are too hung up about rules!

@Lovemysparkle I think the others are right- take the month off !

YellowDaffodils86 · 14/05/2018 19:28

@BabynameEdie only a mere 8dpo. Not quite yet. Going slowly.
Iv just got changed and taken bra off and the side of my right boob is so sore its burning🤔

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 19:43

@YellowDaffodils86 your patience is a lot better than mine! Hmm that's a strange occurrence..is this symptom spotting by any chance? 🤞🤞

YellowDaffodils86 · 14/05/2018 19:48

@BabynameEdie of course, it's probably just progesterone rising. Just cant help it. Now resisting the urge to google it 😂

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 20:39

@YellowDaffodils86 I'm pretty sure you know that I wholeheartedly understand 👌😂 Dr Google is my life two weeks of every cycle! 🤞🤞here's hoping
I'm massively grumpy and feel a bit crampy so expecting AF to arrive soon 😭

HidCat · 14/05/2018 20:51

So my opk got darker today, not positive but noticeable darkening (CD 10). Looking forward to seeing how it progresses, last month I had a very quick surge then straight back to stark white. Never monitored my cycle this closely before, it's all really quite fascinating!

YellowDaffodils86 · 14/05/2018 21:40

@HidCat hope you get your surge soon. I can safely i have learnt alot since ttc. Its all pretty fascinating, I agree.

@BabynameEdie
I dont even know why i do it, it never actually gives me any answers. Its always too soon for answers!
I hope AF doesn't show! 🤞

hayleyfx · 14/05/2018 21:45

@Cakelaur @Boboelephant @BabynameEdie @YellowDaffodils86 thank you! I know I get so excited at positive OPK’s now haha!! So glad to be ovulating normally this month! 🤞
@BabynameEdie well if you’re silly then I’m totally nuts, I’ve tested before at 5dpo 🤣🤣 it’s annoying when we know what the result is going to be but still do it, hoping for a miracle!! 🤦‍♀️ I hope a line develops in the next few days for you though, fingers crossed 🤞
@HidCat ooh hopefully a positive OPK soon then! 🤞

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 21:51

@HidCat yes it's so interesting isn't it. I often miss mine though, think it happens while I sleep! 🤷🏻‍♀️ FX for your surge

@hayleyfx thanks! Haha yep think I've done a 5dpo test before too. Glad I'm not the only crazy one 😂

Martydog · 14/05/2018 21:52

I ended up having surgery this afternoon for an evac of retained products, sorry for tmi. I have had a little bit of bleeding but no pain so I'm hoping things are looking up. Has anyone else not had much bleeding or pain or is it the calm before the storm and it will hit me all in the morning?

Blondcat · 14/05/2018 22:07

@martydog hope you are ok take care and rest up.
@hidcat fx for a positive surge very soon.

BabynameEdie · 14/05/2018 22:08

@Martydog so sorry to hear what you're going through, I hope you feel things are moving forward for you now though. I didn't have surgery so don't have much advice to offer but I really hope it all passes smoothly and quickly for you now x

Boboelephant · 14/05/2018 22:32

Thanks @BabynameEdie and @YellowDaffodils86. All tests came back ok. Ovaries are good and I am definitely ovulating and was told that 'your AMH levels are ok... for 35 they're very good!!' Not sure how to take that veiled insult to my elderly age! 🤣
I do apparently have a condition in my uterus which probably is causing all my back pain which can be treated at some stage but not whilst ttc. He said this doesn't impact fertility though. We were told to keep trying and if not pregnant by the end of the year get the more invasive tests to check other tube. So fingers crossed!!
@Martydog I had the ERPC and after mild bleeding that day had no more bleeding or cramps and recovered quickly physically. Hope you're feeling better soon.

rdm10 · 14/05/2018 23:11

@Martydog Hope you start to feel better soon.

@Lovemysparkle I think I’d miss a month and just enjoy the build up to your wedding.

@DBoo haha I like the symptom tally idea! I’ve had tingly boobs and stabby pains in stomach but boobs are fine now and stabby pains will probably just turn into af cramps 😩 I’ve also got a really bad back but that’s more than likely from sleeping on a really uncomfortable bed at my in laws.
How do we manage to go from having such high hopes to being so sure it’ll be a negative outcome so quickly?? Ah the joys of the tww 🤔

DBoo · 15/05/2018 07:10

@martydog sorry you had to go through that. Ny first erpc i had barely any bleeding and no pain at all. My second one baby was 14+2 still barely any bleeding but i ached for a good 2 weeks after that one.

rdm yup i had all the symptoms going on then i thought nope youre imagining it all it's not your month. Af due a week today so who knows. In all fairness i dont think ive ever really had symptoma before about 5 / 6 weeks so i dont know why i bother looking. Yours sound promising though. A sore back is one of the earlier ones i remember having. Fingers crossed.

HidCat · 15/05/2018 07:35

@Martydog hope you have a more straightforward time from now on.

@Boboelephant I'm glad you're getting answers and things are looking positive!

Cakelaur · 15/05/2018 07:52

@Martydog sorry you had to end up going surgical route. I was totally fine physically straight away. Had a gush of blood when I first stood up after the op, then litterally nothing. I had a bit of discomfort but not enough for a pain killer. At least now it's all over and you can start to take steps to move on.

@Boboelephant great news all is good. I bet that's a weight off your mind. I bet now you're not worrying, you get your bfp real soon!! I'm hoping this week!! 🤞🏻

Boboelephant · 15/05/2018 08:47

Thanks @HidCat and @Cakelaur!
I really hope this is the week too! I think I'm showing amazing willpower actually. 4 frer in the house and haven't tested yet. Just not sure how I feel. I'm really back and forth with it this month and my chart is massively different to last month and I don't know if that's good or bad. Or just different! Ah I just feel confused. Hopeful but desperately trying not to be hopeful at the same time. Tww hey?! Head frazzled!!!

BabynameEdie · 15/05/2018 09:06

@Boboelephant time for some chart sharing? 😀 sorry I'm a very bad influence. Amazed at your willpower - I think this is all a good sign 🤞🤞 xx
