@Missgoldilocks any sign of AF?

Laur89 · 04/05/2020 11:37

Hey girls how are you all doing? I'm doing good than you @Missgoldilocks! I'm 14 weeks now, just taking each day as it comes, feeling big already 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ any news @Gems7?
@Missgoldilocks how are you, did you test?

Gems7 · 04/05/2020 11:50

@Laur89 Hey huni, I am okay thankyou 😊 8 weeks now and I have my scan tomorrow morning so praying that the heartbeat is still there and the measurements are bigger 🤞🏻 I'll keep you posted. I have been feeling lots of nausea over the past 3 days 🤮 I'm so bloated aswell, currently at work sat in an office chair and I'm so uncomfortable! 14 weeks.... eekkk it seems to be going so quickly for you! You may not feel like that though, the time is going soooo slowly for me! Just want everything to be okay. Still spotting but only small amounts.
@Missgoldilocks Has AF arrived this weekend? Hope not!! Xx

Missgoldilocks · 04/05/2020 12:23

@Gems7 @Laur89 ahh glad to hear you're both good :) af came for me yesterday morning which was my birthday. I had a great day anyway, hoping for some luck on cycle 10...xx

@anny27 ahh you're getting to the exciting part, I'm day 2 of af and just want to get to fertile week. Hope we get some luck xx

Gems7 · 04/05/2020 13:23

@Missgoldilocks Happy birthday for yesterday!! 🥳 how old are you now? FW will soon be here, I have heard fertility services are going to be continuing too so hopefully things will start moving again!! Fingers crossed you don't need them though and it's lucky cycle 10 🤞🏻❤️ xx

Missgoldilocks · 04/05/2020 13:48

@Gems7 28 😊 yes let's hope so, I'm pretty sure even if things go back loads of people will be applying might be a bit of a wait anyway! But yeah let's hope fingers crossed 🤞. I really really hope we get lucky this month I mean statistically speaking we should get a bfp soon. I don't know how I'm going to feel if we go over 12 months x

Annny27 · 04/05/2020 14:18

@missgoldilocks I am 28 too :D

Yep this will be the 8/9th cycle of trying for us but 11 months overall with the pregnancy and miscarriage. Let's hope they are both lucky for us haha!

@Gems7 all the best for tomorrow! Really hope you see growth:D

Missgoldilocks · 04/05/2020 14:37

@anny27 yeah! This will be month 13 we came off contraception but I don't class it as us trying because even though we dtd during fertile week we weren't doing it to try for a baby so he never finished inside lol so it can't count surely?! I just bought a menstruation cup, hoping to put it in after dtd to hold all the sperm up there over night 😂.
I just think the closer I get to the year mark its closer to thinking oh gosh maybe there's a problem with me, and I'm not eligible for ivf on the NHS 😩this is what runs through my mind!

Laur89 · 05/05/2020 08:18

Argh @Gems7 the nausea is the worst, I'm only just coming out of it now at 14 weeks! Where do you work if you don't mind me asking, are you still having to go into an office? Or did you mean working from home 😆 good luck for today, thinking of you! What time is your scan? ❤️

Laur89 · 05/05/2020 08:22

@Missgoldilocks happy birthday for Sunday! Glad you had a good day, sorry af came for you though 😰 bring on lucky cycle 10! 😁🤞🏻

Annny27 · 05/05/2020 09:30

@Missgoldilocks yes some lucky people would get pregnant from precum but not the majority so I wouldn't count those cycles as trying either:)

I am cd8 today and started the every other day dad until I get to what I think is fertile week and then will maybe go a bit more often around ovulation. DH is already prepared haha

@gems7 good luck lovely!

@laur89 wow 14 weeks already!

Missgoldilocks · 05/05/2020 11:05

@anny27 haha good! Every month I tell my OH we need to do it every other day till fertile week but every month I decide I can't be assed. I know I ovulate on cd15 so that helps, I'm definitely dtd at the right time every month.

@Gems7 good luck 🍀🤗❤️

Gems7 · 05/05/2020 12:29

There was no heartbeat. My baby has more than doubled in size this week too so the sonographer said the heart had stopped beating very recently, likely in the last 14 hours. I don't know why it's happened, I'm devastated 💔
I have had some tablets at the hospital to start the miscarriage process, the cramps have started and I feel really sick but at least I'm home now to wait this process out. Xx

Gems7 · 05/05/2020 12:30

I meant 24 hours not 14!

Annny27 · 05/05/2020 13:07

I am so sorry for your loss @Gems7 its truly devastating and I am so sorry that it is happening to you 💗 there are no words. Please look after yourself and take all the time that you need off work xxx

After the physical process was over I spent a full week just in tears. Probably through the hormone changes and the loss but it was a horrible time.

Missgoldilocks · 05/05/2020 18:53

@Gems7 oh babe 😩😩😩🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️ I am so so sorry that this happened to you for gods sake! Its just cruel 😔 Please take care of yourself 🙏❤️ we are here if you need to vent, sending you lots of hugs xxxx

Gems7 · 05/05/2020 19:15

@Annny27 @Missgoldilocks Thanks for your support girls. I started bleeding as soon as I got home from the hospital and fuck me the cramps are unbearable (thank the lord for Dihydrocodeine and hot water bottles) I'm just curled up on the sofa praying it doesn't take days and days and also frightened about seeing what comes out.
We have all certainly had our fair share of shitty bad luck on here haven't we.
Let's hope there's no more and all our dreams come true now ❤️ xxx

Laur89 · 05/05/2020 20:35

Oh @Gems7 I'm so so sorry for your loss lovely, that's heartbreaking 😰 take time to rest and look after yourself, thinking of you and sending a big hug! Hopefully you won't be in too much pain ❤️

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 08:32

@Laur89 Thankyou 😘

Nothing has happened yet other than some bleeding yesterday and painful cramps for 2-3 hours. It can't be over because I haven't passed any pregnancy tissue yet.. I'm so confused. really hoped it would be over quickly, I can't even have that 😞 xx

Annny27 · 06/05/2020 08:48

@gems7 sorry that its painful :( mine started on Tuesday and lasted until Friday (and even then I had to have emergency surgery on the Friday as it wasn't all out) but they say it can take a few days for the pregnancy tissue to come out. I felt like a dropping sensation and I knew I needed to push a little and then the sac came out (and that was after 3 days!)

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 09:01

@Annny27 so it's perfectly normal then for me to be completely fine now.. I have no pain or even bleeding at the moment. I just assumed that yesterday day and night would all have been awful and I would pass clots and things more or less straight away but I haven't.
You have put my mind at ease a bit.. I was worrying that maybe the tablets hadn't worked. I really wanted the process to be quick (if I wanted to wait I would have opted for natural management) 😒
I'm sorry you had to go through this too but hearing your experience helps me try and understand mine so Thankyou hun xxx

Annny27 · 06/05/2020 11:08

@Gems7 if you are still not bleeding by the morning I would call them. Even though u didn't pass the sac until Friday I was still bleeding quite a bit with mild cramps and passing some clots from the Tuesday- Friday.

Some peoples bodies just takes a little longer.

Does your son understand or does he not know?

Gems7 · 06/05/2020 11:46

@Annny27 yeah he knows, I've been quite open with him because he's nearly 12 now and we have a really open relationship where he knows he can talk to me about anything and I will be honest with him. He's quite upset about it and has gone to stay with my parents for a few days so he doesn't have to see me upset and In pain (breaking lockdown rules I know but I really don't care right now)

I haven't bled this morning so far, I don't think the tablets have worked. I'll see if anything happens this afternoon and if not call EPU in the morning, I'm almost certain they will just tell me to wait until after the bank holiday though. I wish I could draw a line under it all and move on xx

Missgoldilocks · 06/05/2020 12:11

@Gems7 what a testing time for you right now 😔😩 I'm so sorry xxxx jesus it could at least be over with quickly!! I hope it starts to happen soon just so you don't have to go through more stress! Xx

PrettyTulip · 06/05/2020 15:27

Omg @Gems7 how awful for you, sending you the biggest virtual hug I possibly can xxx 💐 xxx
