Old one almost full!

Hi @JM0934 welcome!
We've been trying since November last year got pregnant April and miscarried in May so back to square 1!

Try and relax it does become obsessive no matter how hard you try not to. It will happen x

can someone copy my comments about relaxing and it will happen and hit me over the head with them when inevitably I come on moaning it's a bfn it'll never happen! lol **

@MrsH497 I’m sorry to hear about your miscarriage! I hope it happens soon for you!

Thank you for your advice! I have to say, I feel much better already after speaking about it! X

@JM0934 also ... don't think I'm not totally obsessed too haha x

@newgirl89 haha I think we all are!! Good luck to you!!!! Hope you get some good news soon! X

@ELW85 I'm sorry A&E were shit. I hope you get all the reassurance soon ❤️ sending huge internet hugs your way.

@Lozzlepop I'm so sorry you're also having a rubbish time - I hope things get better and your appointment tomorrow gives you reassurance. Really hope it stops and everything is ok 💜 sending huge internet hugs your way too.

@LokiCat holiday was awesome thanks. Have a day of blitzing my work, doing some gardening then off again tomorrow for a few days. A very indulgent week! Totally agree with getting closer to other half! Same here - it's a nice side effect to some of the stress that comes with ttc.

Hello to everyone new! Welcome 🖤

@MrsEG thank you so much lovely! I’m hoping it doesn’t come to that either but just interesting to know how to get the ball rolling if we did need to go down that route! Did you get your tests done with her private clinic or the nhs one? I’m not sure if we have the same sort of private services up here so will need to check!

@newgirl89 thank you so much, DP is looking after me I’ve been sat on the sofa resting and will try and get an early night, I am really tired actually!

@JM0934 hello and welcome the ladies here will be able to answer any questions you may have about the crazy world of TTC

@Larrydavid thanks for your kind words hun! Just want to get to tomorrow and have an answer one way or the other! Are you looking forward to the country retreat?

@JM0934 thank you lovely we really hope it does think I'm probably out this month.

@Lozzlepop @ELW85 how are you both doing? Xx

@Lozzlepop I went private and basically got the full suite of blood tests they would have done at the hosp, but much much quicker. She was based at a general IVF/fertility clinic so worth calling one close to you to see if this is something they could offer - i’m sure they would. Hope you’ve managed to relax today, good luck tomorrow I really hope it’s great news x

@MrsH497 - hiya, I’m feeling a bit better, thank you :)
Absolutely knackered but still have my sore boobs, temps were still up this morning, still getting a strong positive on a HPT and the brown bleeding has nearly stopped (hopefully it’ll be gone by tomorrow).
I’m using all of this to stay positive and just tell myself that I’ll consider myself pregnant until I’m told otherwise.

I’d read that if you lose your pregnancy at less than 8 weeks you lose the line on a HPT straight away as it’s the embryo that’s creating the hormones, but after that it can take a while for HCG to leave your system as the placenta takes over, so I’m really, really trying to stay positive and keep my head up.

Sorry for the vent, it’s been a long day.

How are you doing my lovely? Xx

@Larrydavid - thank you for your lovely post; sorry I missed it earlier, I’m so tired!
How’s your country retreat or are you still in Ibiza?

@ELW85 meh had a migraine today 12dpo still bfn so I'm not hopeful to be honest. No sore boobs which I had last time.

I think that's true when I MC my hpt went negative pretty quickly. So glad it's all looking better. Saw your lines in another thread they look great! X

@Lozzlepop @ELW85 - honestly hope it goes well for you both. We're all here if you need to chat/ vent. But hopefully we'll just all be here to celebrate good news!

I'm off to the country in the morning. Today I've been working and finishing my garden. Have some new furniture and we're sitting outside on it with a beer. Its lovely. Very much looking forward to a couple of days away. I'm going to try and stay relaxed this month as I felt a bit stressed in the last tww. I've worked out I have until December to get pregnant and if it doesn't happen then we'll have to take a little break so I'm not too huge for a wedding dress!

@ELW85 Hi lovely. so sorry you're having such a worrying time. I'm pleased the spotting has settled a bit and I'm sending you loads of positive energy and love.

@Lozzlepop aww lovely so sorry you've had an awful couple of days. I've got absolutely everything crossed for your appointment tomorrow. Lots of love ❤️

Yes please keep us updated @ELW85 and @Lozzlepop xxx

I am currently in the TWW (supposedly....although still not entirely convinced i ovulated haha)

Hoping not to test till 29th/30th but i dont have high hopes for my willpower haha

Where is everyone else in their cycle?

@Anny27 I'm cd15 usual 30 day cycle. OV hopefully any day now. Who knows. Do you use OPKs? How do you track? X

@MrsH497 - ah I’m sorry to hear that. They say every pregnancy is different symptoms wise though, so I’m keeping everything crossed for you 🤞🏻
Thank you so much for all of your lovely posts and support, it’s meant a lot :)
Ah yes, I was wondering if my lines should have gotten massively darker but I think I’m still in with a chance :)

@LikeTheFruit - thank you so much my dear! How are you feeling? I hope you’re well?

@Anny27 - thank you for all of the lovely messages, so kind!
Do you temp and OPK to track your cycles? I’m sorry, I’m sure you’ve said :)

@Larrydavid thank you so much for that, let’s keep everything crossed that @Lozzlepop and I only have good news for us all ❤️

Your day in the garden with the impending country retreat sounds awesome!
Do you have any ideas for your wedding dress yet?

@ELW85 I'm feeling alright really. Nausea started last couple of days and I was hoping just to blame it on being on night shift but I think it's here to stay. 6+5 now. Got a wedding on day so think I'm going to need to take some emergency snacks!

@newgirl89 i used OPKs this cycle which gave me a positive on day 15. I find them really easy to use - just the internet cheapies! What about you?

@ELW85 yep i used OPKs this month which helped me pinpoint. And just incase we dont get our bfp this month, i have bought a thermometer to track next cycle as i want to confirm ovulation with bbt (hopefully i will never need to use it and this month is our month but you never know :p)

@LikeTheFruit - ah the nausea! Really pleased everything is going well for you though :)
I can only imagine how exhausted you are with your job and the shifts! Do you get any nap time or is that a stupid question? 😂

@Anny27 - temping really helped me, but everything crossed for you that won’t need to anyway!

BFN isn't it

@ELW85 yeah I have access to an oncall room with a bed for if it's quiet which is good. Don't always see much of it though. Time is going so so slowly though, can't believe it's another 6 weeks until my scan!

@LikeTheFruit - I bet you don’t get to see much of it, bless you!
Did you consider an early scan or are you happy to wait?

@MrsH497 - sorry my lovely I can’t see anything yet but there’s still lots of time before the weekend :) xx
