The One Full Of Coconuts and BFPs

[ChikiTIKI]

Just setting this up before we run out of space on the other thread.

@Carastarchild @LondonKez I will tag more people later today.

Anyone not on previous thread is welcome to join too. A friendly group of people supporting each other through TTC xxxx

Depends on when I ovulate of course 😂

Ooh that's exciting, the wedding is so close!

I got my BFP the day after a wedding this time around :)

I feel that my husband and I want this now ever more if that is possible. I hope we won't have a long wait 💜

Should be 'even more' not ever more

@PineappleC any update? Are you now in the TWW? A girl I work with told me that she found out she was pregnant just before she was due to attend fertility tests.

CD 5 😊 AF is gone mostly, except for a random bit of spotting. I am going to start using the fertility monitor in the morning 🙌 I haven't used it since February, but I just thought that we got so close this cycle that I would use it again.

How is everyone else doing?

Sounds good @Carastarchild wishing you the best for this cycle xxxx

How are you feeling @ChikiTIKI? I can't believe how fast the last week had gone by. I am off to bed. Thankfully tomorrow is Friday 🙏 I am glad my body has seemed to have returned to normal.

I am ok thanks @Carastarchild I just feel very sick :( glad it's Friday! Xxxx

How many weeks are you now @ChikiTIKI? I have been holding onto my holidays in the hopes that I can use them if I get bad morning sickness 😔

@Carastarchild I think I am 6-7 weeks.

You should use your holidays for fun stuff while you're feeling well and use sick leave if you are ill !!

@Carastarchild so sorry to hear your news, that's really crappy 😥 Have you looked into repeated MC at all? The only person I know who had them it was some sort of specific auto-immune issue but think there are a few things they can normally check for. Really hope you're okay anyway xx

I'm on cd4 of cycle 12. Pelvic ultrasound on Tues, and fertility clinic have said they want me to have a hycosy before we have an appt, so that will be in Sept xx

@ChikiTIKI how are you feeling now?, congratulations on getting so far. I hope you can relax a little now and begin to enjoy your pregnancy 💜

@pineapple I made an appointment with a homeopath, who I went to see last Thursday. I believe it is my immune system that is causing the early losses. I pray that she can help me. You are about Cd9 aren't you! I have been following the SMEP plan to a T this month, so I really hope it pays off. I am on cd13 and I am on my second day of peak fertility 🤞

@PineappleC how did your appointment on Tuesday go? 💚

@Carastarchild that's really good that you're seeing a homeopath. Immune system could be a cause and if it is, I hope they can help 😊 It could just be bad luck...if one in 3 pregnancies end in miscarriage. I don't know whether that's better or worse to hear though!

The ultrasound went fine thanks. The nurse said she's not able to give an official comment and I have to wait for doctor to do that, but she said in her opinion it all looks normal. Should get official comments this week. In the meantime, my DH had another sperm analysis - no comments this time about morphology, but apparently there were "inconsistencies" with motility. Weird, because on his last tests he was at the high end of normal for everything other than morphology (lower than normal). All that really concludes for me is that sperm sampling seems quite random!

I'm cd12 today. Not very hopeful as its cycle 12 and I think I've just accepted we will need some sort of intervention, but keeping up the work anyway 😊

How are you getting on with the fertility monitor? Is it a POAS job?

I am doing ok thanks @Carastarchild had family over the weekend come to stay which was lovely. Probably was obvious to them I am pregnant due to how tired I was. Oh well!

Had a GP appointment on Monday last week. He referred me to the hospital for antenatal care and also for an early scan because apparently 8 weeks was quite late for a MC? I had no idea. They were going to request the scan by phone call though and I never heard anything so assume the hospital have said no. But got a letter about booking in appointment a couple of days after the GP appointment.

Good news about your peak showing up on the monitor. Have you had a nice bank holiday weekend?

Wondering if the people in the group get a notification if someone posts?! Would love to know how you’re all doing
