The July '19ers - knocked down, but never beaten

[Frazzlerock]

Hey @TinselBee, @Rose68, @BettySwoll0cks

Here is the thread I promised us.

Somewhere for us to help eachother, pick one another up, cry, scream, laugh..

Some of us may be looking to try again, some may be putting things on hold. Whatever our plans, lets get through this together.

(I don't know whether conception was the right choice of topic, I can always have this moved to a more suitable topic if anyone would like me to)

I will look through our threads again and see if I can @mention anyone else who might like to join us

Happy New Year everyone! Here's to a fantastic 2019 where we successfully become pregnant and carry full term. There, I've said it :-)
I have a slight hangover this morning after wine, gin and tonic, champagne and vodka.......and we were just at home. Ooops!
But I was up at 7am dog walking and we are about to head to the beach for another walk. And a coffee I hope!
@Rachyrach83 how was the gin?
Really pleased you got to have a proper chat @ratherbeshowjumping you must feel so relieved now.
@kinsters we also went to bed about 11pm last night.
Fireworks around the world look amazing though.
Here's to feeling positive for the new year.
My DH also works away a lot so we will just havento do what we can do!
Happy New Year!!!!!!

Happy New Year everyone!! FX for us all to become mum's in 2019 to new little healthy babies! 🥂

Kin any chances it's a pre of drop? Oh I was awful at games when I first started and still awful at new games. So much fun though. I stopped gaming not due to having DS but that's a very long and horrid story to tell.

edidxb enjoy your beach walk (and coffee)! Hope the hangover doesn't last too long.

I'm feeling rough too, DH looks worse though. We stayed up till 3.30am and DS got us up at 7.15am Eek. It's my birthday though so I'm chilling whilst DH makes me a coffee.

My temp has risen! Woop! Looks like Ov happened 30/31st maybe?

Happy New Year! This is definitely going to be the year for us all!

Ladies, warning of a potential positive test here. I am sorry xx

Couldn't resist taking a test as I really hoped for a BFP on my birthday... well I've attached a pic. If I did ovulate when FF is predicting (boxing day) then I'm only 6dpo? Trying to not get hopes up as I know FRERs are terrible for shadow lines etc but it does have colour to it and appeared straight away too...

@Twittlebee - that is not a shadow, that is a pink line! So it looks like it is a happy birthday, happy new year and a happy BFP!
You could have ovulated before 26th around 20th which would make more sense?
I really hope for you that it is what we all think and are hoping for!
You'll have to test again tomorrow!

How exciting. This actually gives me a lot of hope and excitement!

Omg TwittleBee that's so exciting! Tentative congratulations and also happy birthday! It definitely looks like a line to me, can see the pink colour. Maybe you ovulated a day earlier. I don't think a positive test at 6dpo is unheard of though - I'm sure I had a positive at 6dpo the last two cycles (one chemical and then of course the MMC).

Oh wow @Twittlebee! That looks positive to me! Congratulations! FX the line gets stronger. I am so excited for you! And happy birthday too xxx

Ah TwittleBee I am so so pleased for you! Happy new year, happy birthday & congratulations xxx

Happy new year to everyone too! Mine has started by my horse knocking over a full wheelbarrow of poo onto the nice cleanly swept concrete 👏🏼 let's hope it doesn't continue in the same way 😂

@twittle
FX for you!!! Test again tomorrow!!
Happy birthday too!!
New year was nice, took the kids outside with sparkles which was fun!

But sad today.
A bit sad I know but today I was going to do the whole social media baby announcement thing :(
Xmas for family, friends in between and New Year for telling the world of Facebook! Pathetic I know but it was going to be ‘finally I can say ‘I’m having a baby this year!’’...... sorry for pissing on the party :(

Oh and look at this chart 😂
I took my temp twice yesterday as didn’t believe the drop and it was deff 96.? Now back up almost 1degee!! My body is f**ked up :(

Chart

Thank you everyone, trying hard to stay calm and not get too excited. DH says there is certainly a line there but after a few CPs I know it could easily go again. A couple on a FB group I'm on think it's too early for a FRER to even pick up and that it's likely a shit test.

Looking at my chart I think maybe i could be 7dpo and this morning's temp rise was implant rise? Idk.

Rather hopefully that's the only shit you'll have to deal with in 2019 🤞😂

Rachy I was also gonna do the SM announcement, was planning on being awfully cringe too, had a few ideas from Pinterest on how I was gonna announce etc. So I do totally understand. I am sorry. Your chart is crazy looking, guess just see what next few days bring. xx

Sending lots of love @Rachyrach83, it's a bit of a funny day isn't it? I keep thinking to myself, "I was pregnant last year." How bizarre does that sound?
It upsets me knowing that there's a good chance I should fall pregnant this year but what are the odds of me actually staying pregnant? Will I have a baby this year? Next year? Ever? This miscarriage has nearly succeeded in tearing dh & I apart when we needed each other most. What would happen to us if I miscarried again? It's a horrible thought.

Anyway, enough negativity!

@TwittleBee how are you feeling? Any symptoms yet?!

Despite my negative thoughts, dh & I have had a lovely day today. Went for a really good long beach walk & were lucky enough to see about 50 seals just chilling on the beach! 😍

Happy new year all of you wonderful ladies.

And Happy birthday @TwittleBee and woah!! What a wonderful birthday surprise! Man I hope it's a sticky one for you. You need it! Fuck it, we all need it to give us hope!

Well duck knows what is going on with my temps. Keep thinking I'm about to ovulate but don't.

OPKs positive then not, then positive again

Happy new year #fuckingPCOS

CD33 now 🙄

I think I need to get back on the no sugar, no dairy, no gluten, no life, no joy diet. It worked last time.

Like all of you, I just so badly need to be pregnant again but I can't even ovulate.

Still, last night's party was fun and we are still lying in bed at 4:20pm after inhaling a McDonald's. DP is in a terrible way after drinking 3/4 bottle of gin 😂 I had vodka lime and soda which doesn't really give me hangovers luckily!

Oh and I deffo found EWCM yesterday but, again, I had to rummage for it. And
TMI...

I expected EWCM to be clear? Mine was opaque and streaks of pink in it.
But deffo stretchy as it should be.

Like I say, I don't get it unless I rummage so who knows 🤷‍♀️

@Frazzlerock - my EWCM is often opaque and I have had blood in it before so I wouldn't worry about that at all.

I am on CD26 today and no positive OPKs and no AF. I maybe had a positive OPK 2 weeks ago but as no AF and no positive pregnancy test (I did take another one yesterday) I assume no ovulation yet. I might post my chart so you can all laugh at all the temps I haven't taken!!

@Ratherbeshowjumping - brilliant photos. What a dramatic beach. I went to the beach this morning but doesn't compare at all.....again I might post a photo.

@rachyrach83 I know how you feel. My first due date last year was 3rd Oct and on Christmas Day there were loads of 3 month old babies at lunch ( we went out) and it made me feel really sad. And now there are announcements when I was going to announce........very sad.

Here is my chart...........hopefully.
What a mess. No temps, no BD for a week!!!

Here is my beach trip. 10am, coffee, pretty hazy and about 26 degrees.
We then went to the pool this afternoon.
Had a leftover sausage casserole from the BBQ for dinner and currently finishing off the champagne from last night!!

Ah you guys!!! I’d love to live by a beach!!!! I live 200miles from any sea!!!! 😢

@Ratherbe, you will have a baby, I know you will. If you and DH are okay now I expect it will happen very quickly. I know it’s hard when it’s you and you don’t know what will happen, but all the signs are good and one mc really doesn’t mean you will mc again.

@Frazzle, sending you a hug, I think your body needs a bit of time, I’m sure AF or ov will happen soon, and then you will know where you are. My ewcm is usually clear, but it can also be opaque, esp after sex, maybe it gets mixed up with you know what from DH.

I had stacks of ewcm this month, I just so wish we hadn’t had that disaster sex. We have dtd lots after that, but I can’t stop thinking that first bd was the important one. Plus I am slightly wishing I hadn’t drunk quite as much as I did last night 😩

Gordon Ramsey’s wife is pregnant and she is older than me, yay!

Happy NY everyone! Hope everyone who celebrated had a brilliant time. We ditched our plans and stayed in last night, the pair of us are so sick we couldn't risk giving the flu to everyone else! But that's fine, I'm not that big on NYE anyway.

@TwittleBee Wow!! Amazing news. Happy birthday - and fx for you that it all goes brilliantly.

@ratherbe - your comment about being pregnant last year made me smile. I look back at 2018 and I was basically pregnant all year (3 mc's on the bounce). A bit sad but I have to remind myself of that when I'm being mean to myself about not being amazing/a little bit fat during 2018 - it was a horrible year. Good riddance!!

@Rose68 thank you for your comment about not enjoying sex while bf'ing. That's really interesting and has given me something to think about. It just hasn't been the same since I fell pg with DS, but then I've been pg or bf'ing solidly for the past 3.5yrs so that has got to have a lot to do with it x

Big news in my house is that DS just managed his first wee in his potty 😂 he is so pleased w himself I can't tell you. When DH came home, DS made I'm look in the toilet as he explained how we flushed it away together. So funny! Big boy. Weaning next week... 😬

Congratulations @TwittleBee! Don't be sorry at all- baby dust on this thread is good for all of us

@edidxb that looks gorgeous 😍 sunshine all year round must be lovely. Definitely beats rainy Cornwall 😂

Thanks @Rose68, I needed that. I know a mc doesn't mean that I can't carry to full term, I know that 1 in 3 pregnancies end in one... but how many times do I/we need to fall into that awful 33% before a little one falls into my lap? It's exhausting!

Can't believe Gordon Ramsay's wife is pregnant again!!! It seems celebrities are constantly popping them out - it would be interesting to know which celebrities have suffered from losses, if there as common as they apparently are. It would do a lot to reduce the stigma around talking about it.

@BettySwoll0cks bless him 😍👏🏼 baby steps....!

Loving the beach pictures! Ratherbe those seals look so cute! I live somewhere hot all year round but nowhere near a beach. I miss the UK tbh cause here it's not easy to go for a country walk because its just so hot and sweaty.

I feel like I should be about to ovulate (high cervix, ewcm) but no temperature rise yet. I don't really trust opks at the moment because I think there's probably some residual HCG which would affect the results. I really hate not knowing when it's going to happen. I was sooo regular before this and now I just feel in a follicular phase limbo. Sucks.

Yay for potty training Betty!

TwittleBee I hope your line has got stronger today! I definitely don't think it's too early for a line, especially if you ovulated even one day earlier than fertility friend thinks. Understand the concern re chemicals.

Hi,

Yes, I saw that about Gordon Ramsey's wife at 44. I am sure a lot of older celebrities must have fertility treatment and we don't hear about it. I know you can fall pregnant naturally at 44, but it is unlikely. However, her previous miscarriage was very sad - I think it was quite late if I remember well.
I have googled before celebrities who have had miscarriages - some of them are Pink, Beyonce, Courtney Cox who have spoken about them. Zara from the Royal Family as well. But not many who have spoken about multiple miscarriages.
