4dpo...join me!!!

[whyhaveidonethis]

I'm 4dpo, fairly sure this month isn't going to work but wondered if anyone wanted to join me in the crazy 2ww?

@MrsP4 and @whyhaveidonethis so delighted for you :)

Sadly I am definitely having a chemical. My line on a FRER is now hardly visible and I feel like AF is about to arrive. Feel really sad, although I'm trying to see it as a positive; ie I'm still able to get pregnant.

oh no, I'm so sorry to hear this @whyhaveidonethis :( sending hugs. have you got DP with you for support? much love xxxx

@Whyhaveidonethis so sorry :( hope you are ok x

I'm really not OK. It feels like such a loss, which is silly, even though I know that it is really early. I had just got used to the idea. We were planning it all out. Talking about it etc.

Aww @Whyhaveidonethis 😢 at least you know you can get pregnant, and now that you have, the chances of conceiving will be higher (I think) take a bit of time for your self, and fingers crossed everything falls into place for you!

@whyhaveidonethis it isn't silly in the slightest – a loss is a loss and this is something you've been striving for for a very long time so it's totally natural to feel it keenly. I'm so sorry you're experiencing this sadness xxxx

@Whyhaveidonethis I am so sorry 😭 I can only imagine how your feeling! Sending lots of love and hugs your way! Atleast you know you can conceive please don't be too hard on yourself, have a good cry if you need to and tomorrows a new day 😘 xx

Thanks ladies. The bleeding has really started now so I guess it's definitely over. Feel so sad.

Please may I join? I'm 3DPO, cycle #3. I have been feeling rubbish all day, but I put that down to a 6 day working week as it's so early to spot anything symptom wise.

I think I had a chemical last month. I normally have 31-33 day cycles, but AF came on CD21, just after a very faint IC. Does that sound like a chemical to you?

@Whyhaveidonethis I know, bless you 😘 take care of yourself. I'm sorry I don't know what to say, as it's not going to make it any easier for you x

@Sheep90 that's a major change in your cycle length and means you must have ovulated and implanted unusually early. Ic's I know can be unreliable, but I wouldn't be able to say for sure. Not sure if anyone else can offer any advice?

@Sheep90 do you know what day you ovulated. I've just had a chemical and found out a few days before af was due. Af then came today.

@lottiepink @whyhaveidonethis I think I ovulated early as I got a strong OPK on around CD9 and then no positive result around the time I was expecting. Never had a cycle like it, but it was the first one I'd tracked!

Now I'm on the next cycle, 4/5DPO (CD21) and I have light cramps and super light spotting. I've been temping this month so I'm more confident that I ovulated. Could this be implantation or is it too early?

Thanks everyone, I hope you get the results you want soon 🙂

Hi ladies how is everyone doing?

Same ol', same ol' here – another 12dpo squinter for me (third cycle in a row) but not feeling at all hopeful about it given the same occurrence has come to nothing in either of my previous cycles

Pics here:

Hiya @kell2126 I think I see something on the second picture. After my chemical last month though I'm not going to believe anything personally until I see strong positives on. FrER

@kell2126 I see it too. I wonder why you keep getting the faint positives. Is that on any brand test you do?

thanks ladies. previously they've all been on frers. just did a 4-hour hold and tried again with another of these one step midstreams (i.e. the type in the first photos) and also a frer. frer bfn, one step is another faint lin – possibly very slightly less faint than the first. got another of both for the morning so i guess i'll go again with both with fmu.

totally with you on not believing in anything till it's an in-your-face line on the frer @whyhaveidonethis.

@lottiepink i honestly have no idea – am wondering if it's to do with my age (38)??

@kell2126 yes see what tomorrow brings. Fingers crossed for you. It's so odd tho that is been on all 3 cycles ttc. But bless you it must be so confusing and annoying when af turns up! Hope you're ok x

Bfn on both this morning 🤷‍♀️ C’est la vie - on to cycle #8 for me - likelihood of getting bfn frer 13dpo then bfp later is pretty low I suppose. Note to self: avoid testing on 12do! 🤦‍♀️

Hugs @kell2126 its so distressing to get a BFP then BFN. Xxx

Thank you @whyhave. how are you doing now?

Bleeding is slowing down now thanks @kell2126 so fed up. I really want to be getting a sticky bean. This chemical has really upset me.

How are you?

@whyhave honestly I wouldn't wish (unsuccessful) TTC on my worst enemy – it's so cruel. Hopefully your chances are good this cycle though – don't they say that you're more likely to conceive straight after a CP/MC? But I can imagine getting your head into the trying again space after seeing so many BFPs last time is going to be tough. I feel for you x

I'm OK – awaiting AF (due today) and have a bottle of fizz chilling in the fridge for when she arrives which will hopefully take the edge off the disappointment.

Will be gutted though when she does arrive, particularly this time because it was our last cycle before starting IVF: I have to call the clinic the day AF starts and then have to stop TTC in advance of starting the hormone injections in June. I really, really hoped it wouldn't come to this because by all accounts unsuccessful IVF is even more of a head fuck. Won't be testing for pg again till prob mid-July now.
