Thought the old one was getting a bit full so I'd start a new one. I'll attempt tagging as many as I can

@Larrydavid possibly up to 3 months. We shall see!

MrsH497 · 18/09/2019 19:49

@ValidUser sending sticky thoughts your way really hope it's a sticky one for you ❤️

Thanks @Larrydavid I take each day as it comes and just go with the "I'm pregnant today"

@Anny27 thanks lovely! I just didn’t want to be at work thinking about it so will be nice to go away for a couple of days! How are you getting on?

@MrsH497 how exciting not too long to wait! How are you feeling about everything?

@Kiza oh Cape Town sounds fantastic too! Are your tests on the NHS? How long did you have to wait for your appointment? Can I ask what sort of tests you got done? We’ll be getting tests done soon hopefully 🤞🏻

@Larrydavid do it- you won’t be disappointed (I hope) where are you off to on your hols? More SMEP in an unusual location? ☺️

MrsH497 · 18/09/2019 21:40

@Lozzlepop I'm ok thank you lovely, still quite anxious but not sure that will go anytime soon! I know I should be jumping for joy but I just can't yet, keep checking I'm not bleeding which is silly I know. Looking forward to the midwife appointment though x

@larrydavid thank you - thats good that you are getting further with the wedding stuff and you've eased the pressure off yourself :D

@Lemonysherbet i have moments of feeling really positive thinking this is my month and then moments of "but what if it isn't" haha

@lozzlepop doing okay thanks :) we had our 2nd wedding anniversary last week so been focussed on that and not too much on ttc which has been a nice change haha!

Kiza · 19/09/2019 07:36

@Lozzlepop we live in Birmingham and we're really surprised that we got them done straight away (friends in other areas have had to wait 3 months). They did my partners semen analysis and my bloods on the same day.
They're testing me for about 12 different things with my bloods but it's mainly progesterone as the test was done in cd21.
I've read that it's a bit pointless them testing me for some of the other things such as fsh on cd21 as that test is supposed to be on cd2? It's the NHS though 🤷🏼‍♀️ they said my test results all come back at different times over the next 2-3 weeks so I'm going to wait until they're all available and then go in to find out as I want to know the exact numbers of each test not just a generic 'it's ok, or it's average'.

Whatnext11 · 19/09/2019 08:40

I'm all over the place, posted a test pic on another thread as it wouldn't let me do it in here - can you see it. Line eyes welcome

Anny27 · 19/09/2019 08:49

@whatnext11 just saw it - the most positive test i have ever seen haha. Congratulations :D how many dpo are you?

Whatnext11 · 19/09/2019 08:53

14dpo. Thought I was over and out as had spotting and cramps just like before AF. Went a bit quiet on here as I was gutted. Eek!!

Anny27 · 19/09/2019 09:00

Thats amazing! @whatnext11 what cycle number is this for you?

MrsH497 · 19/09/2019 09:10

@Whatnext11 what thread is it?! Congratulations!!

MrsH497 · 19/09/2019 09:14

@Whatnext11 just found it!! That's a brilliant line for a bfp huge congratulations! X

Whatnext11 · 19/09/2019 09:14

Thank you!!! @mrsh497 it's called 'can you see it'. Eek. @anny27 it's complicated! It is sort of cycle 1 but due to some other issues, I've had therapy for several years and just got a go ahead to try. Didn't think it would ever work if I'm honest

Lottiepink · 19/09/2019 09:20

@Whatnext11 congratulations! What a line!

@MrsH497 pleased to see your doing ok; bet you cannot wait for that scan 😊 I hope this is your time!

@ValidUser i hope this is your time too, you deserve it 😊

Whatnext11 · 19/09/2019 09:38

@lottiepink thank you so much.
@valid user, hoping it's your month too.

Larrydavid · 19/09/2019 10:33

@Lozzlepop no weird location this time! The tww will be in japan! Though I've just worked out that I'm on a work trip when I ovulate so I think I'm out completely this month. At least I can enjoy raw fish/ sushi without worrying!

@Whatnext11 congratulations! 🎊

@Kiza I'm booked in for some tests when I get back from holiday. Good luck with yours.

ELW85 · 19/09/2019 10:55

@ValidUser - congratulations! Keeping everything crossed for you that the progesterone does it’s job and everything sticks. I’m sure it will 😊

@Larrydavid - the wedding planning sounds like it’s gone really well! We had so much fun planning ours, so enjoy every second!

@whatnext11 - congratulations!

Lozzlepop · 19/09/2019 17:19

Hi ladies

@MrsH497 I think it is really hard to be excited after a loss, it’s only natural to want to be cautious but I’m sure that will pass. Will you book an early scan or wait for the 12 week scan?

@Anny27 oh how lovely congratulations, it is nice to take the pressure off sometimes and just enjoy being a couple again.

@Kiza that’s really good that you were seen so quickly! We’ve been told 6-8 weeks for a letter then a further 6-8 weeks for the appointment, that’s for the recurrent miscarriage clinic though so I’m not sure if things differ. Fingers crossed that you get your results soon and hopefully some answers 🤞🏻 The not knowing is the hardest bit.

@Whatnext11 congratulations lovely ☺️

@Larrydavid I’m almost disappointed to hear that 😂 can you not just sneak DH with you? Lol ooh yay to being able to enjoy the sushi though that’s a good plus!

Has everyone had a good Thursday? I feel like it’s been such a slow week I need to fast forward to the weekend already!

Kiza · 19/09/2019 17:56

@Lozzlepop @Larrydavid thanks both, yeah the waiting is hard as I don't know which answer I'd prefer- that everything is fine with us or there's something not fine but at least then we may able to do something about it? 🤷🏼‍♀️ a weird in between feeling to have!

@ValidUser really hoping the progesterone works for you 🤞🏼

ValidUser · 19/09/2019 18:44

Hello everyone! I think my recent BFPs were remnants of the trigger, but I'm still only 9dpo so not out yet!

How's everyone doing?

Lemonysherbet · 19/09/2019 19:42

I got home and my tests were here. I have no willpower which is why I don't keep them in the house 😂 what do you think? I'm so scared to feel excited as we had an early MC last month. I've got another, might wait for Saturday morning to test.

@lemonysherbet omg congrats, that is definitely positive 😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉

Lemonysherbet · 19/09/2019 19:51

I'm so scared to be excited after last month. Do you reckon Saturday morning to test again? It should show up a bit darker by then right?

Lemonysherbet · 19/09/2019 19:53

Sorry @validuser didn't see your comment. Too distracted and shaky to make sense of anything! I really hope this is your month, come on progesterone!!!

Sunshine8888 · 19/09/2019 19:56

Yes it should get darker as the days go on 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
