@AnneLovesGilbert I'm so pleased for you lovely, that's wonderful news. I've been checking the thread all day (and working very hard of course ).

@TaylsN thats good you're getting sorted but I think I'd have been very freaked out by chat of delivery schedules. I wouldn't even let me GP give me a due date when I went in for my MW referral as I just couldn't think that far ahead.

@Munchies89 glad you've got your appointments lined up and are feeling well. Keeping everything crossed for you that this is your turn!

@hopefulforourrainbow try not to overthink what that crazy lady said last week, it was really unfair of her to load that on you. Enjoy your holiday and try not to worry about ovulation. I never get a very positive OPK, theres either a very faint/no line or there's a line you can see but its not as dark at the control line. Try testing around 4pm and again around 9pm (obviously depending on work shifts), peaks can go pretty quick.

Not much to report here. Screening test results came back low risk which is a relief. Still feeling nauseous, it lasted til 16 weeks with DS so probably got a couple more weeks ahead of it at least. I'm definitely getting a bit of a bump although mostly just look fat and seem to inflate over the day then it deflates over night. Still shattered, taking naps when I can although sometimes it makes me feel worse as I then wake up feeling even more tired and sick. Hard to know if I'm feeling bits of flutters here and there or if its just wind. Feeling like 2 weeks is a long time to last until my next appointment which is a RMC consultant appointment where I'm hoping they'll listen in with a doppler or I may have to pay for a private scan to put me out of my misery.

Oh @AnneLovesGilbert having a bit of a hormonal sob at your good news. It feels like such a milestone when you get to a point where you've not been before. Your consultant sounds ace. I like it when they are just totally on a level and are willing to throw the kitchen sink at the problem.
I barely slept last night, I just got super anxious and then couldn't switch my brain off at all. Have sacked off work for the day, feel guilty but really I know that it's only a day and the sky won't fall.
I felt loads of lovely sickie symptoms yesterday and today I feel fine. Which of course makes me panic.
It's DH 40th birthday celebration on Saturday night and I am just hoping that we make it to there unscathed. Waiting 2 wks for next scan is really hard.
@Labmum 16 weeks, you could totally be feeling movements.

Sorry @Labmum I just reread. I just realised you were saying you were sick up to 16 wks before.
That's great that your screening results are low risk.

That's amazing news @Anne! I've been so worried for you today.
I'm on CD20, usually ovulate around CD21. I've had a few twinges today on right side. I usually have sore boobs, super sense of smell, sex feels different and have a little spotting after. I have long cycles, around 33-35 days. We're going to mexico on 1st September for 2 weeks. Can't wait! I'll still be on my period for first few days then coming up for ovulation towards the end going by ovia app. We come home on CD19. I've been looking in to things i can take to help ovulate early as you're right, holiday sex is always better! Have any of you tried soy isoflavones?

Thanks for the tag and adding me to the new thread!

Really pleased for you @AnnelovesGilbert, fingers crossed it will go well from now on. I have a feeling it’s your time now! I really do, you’ve been through so much, and supported others all the way through too (and met work deadlines)! I don’t know how you’ve done it. All my fingers and toes are crossed - like others have said I’ve got a bit emotional this afternoon.

@Hopefulforarainbow - your lady sounds crazy, in one ear out of the other! Focus on your lovely upcoming hols.

I’ve tried opks twice, but never got the hang of them. One month I never got a positive, yet still got pregnant (which didn’t last) so I’m not sure whether that was an omen. I was supposed to temp this month, but lost the thermometer I tend to guess ovulation according to apps and go for it for about 5 days

It does work for me, but nothing has stuck this year - perhaps I need a new approach?

Currently in a Spanish villa with all my in laws, and as lovely (and well meaning) as they are, I needed to get away for a bit, and broken my vow on not looking at my phone or email .

Keep posting news on scans, they are lovely to read xx

Haha I'd never manage to not look at my phone! Hope you're having a lovely time. Weather is crap here now. I don't seem to be getting notifications for new thread. Does anyone know how to turn them on?

Omg @Anne that's amazing news! I'm so so soooo happy for you. Long may it continue!

Wow @LabMum can't believe you're that far along already. I bet it's not going so quick for you though. Glad everything is looking well so far.

I'm glad the bleeding has settled down @Paranormalbouquet

Omg @Hopefulforourrainbow Mexico is absolutely amazing! Our favourite place ever. Have an amazing time. 2 weeks as well!

Hope you're having a lovely time away @CurlyTwirlyTwos

Ah will it be a party or a get together @Miami? Do many people know you're pregnant?x

It's our favourite place too! This will be our 5th time. Got married there too a few years ago! It's my happy place!

Ah that's amazing! You'll have the best time then 😀 the first time we got to go there, we only went for 5 days!! Second time was 7days at the start of our honeymoon. Have you experienced coco bongos?x

Yeah we've been 3 times! Don't think we'll bother going again! It was the same show every time

Ah we've just been the once, such a crazy but fun experience x

I’m bleeding.

Oh no @beanhunter is it a lot? Cramps?x

Oh @beanhunter sending huge hugs. Are you on holiday? Can you get to an EPU?

Yes. On holiday in South Africa. Proper clots.

Oh bean How scary and awful, I’m so sorry. Sending you a big gentle hug. Who’s with you? Can you get to a doctor?

We’re all here for you

I’m on holiday in South Africa. With husband and daughter. Fly back Friday night.

Don’t know what to suggest bean Are you in pain? I so so hope it’s a scare and nothing properly bad. Can you get to a doctor or clinic? Some of the health care is great. Have you got insurance? Sending loads of love to you.

@anne that is such great news! ditto on getting emotional on your behalf.
I'm not on progesterone as they tested it and said it looked great, so they don't feel that was the issue with the mmc. I thought I'd hear the results today, but didn't get a call so hoping that's a good thing. They'll likely call tomorrow.
@munchies I'm 5+4 so definitely early days. I've been feeling a lot of anxiety but not sure if that's just loss related or hormone related or both. This evening I did feel like I was going to throw up during dinner so I'm optimistic that means my hcg is rising even without getting the call to confirm.
@bean I'm so sorry I hope you can find some medical care.

@bean I'm so sorry. Remember we're all here for you. Sending lots of love and hugs

Bean I’m so sorry. I really hope you get an answer soon.

@beanhunter how are you this morning? Has the bleeding settled? Im not sure what to suggest, how far along are you? Awful for you to go through but even worse when you're not on home turf where you know who to contact.
Take care lovely.

Trying to figure out what to take next cycle. Thinking vitex, b6 and seven seas trying for a baby though read yesterday about soy isoflavones bringing forward ovulation and have just been reading about proceive on holland & Barratt site. Any thoughts?

No bleeding after 11pm. Feel sick but think that’s lack of sleep rather than a good thing.
So rmc clinic replied to an email and said stop aspirin but continue clexane. Bloods won’t change outcome.

Clinic said only stop aspirin if more bleeding and continue clexane and get bloods done when back in the uk.

Clinic said dont change route or dose of progesterone.

So I’m going to stop the aspirin as that consultant is the one who knows about mc treatment.

I’m scared. And feel a long way from home.

Should be 5+1 today.
