Sorry @Leok83 i thought you meant you had it previously not in these days!!
So we had the same basically this cycle because mine is also completely gone now.
Did you get any other symptoms or unusual things?
Let’s see what it brings us 😄 🤞🏽

Leok83 · 16/04/2020 07:19

@SunnySideUp2020 nothing else at all this cycle other than lack of AF pains and it’s due tomorrow but I caved and tested this morning and it’s a BFN 10 DPO..not feeling too hopeful now!

SunnySideUp2020 · 16/04/2020 07:45

@leok83 i know you know but 10dpo is a bit early. I think 11dpo if there’s no squinter then it’s not looking good but 10dpo is ok to still have hope!
So you will be late for AF tomorrow if it doesn’t come but only 11dpo? I always thought everybody got AF 14/15 days after ovulation... very ignorant of me 😶

Annny27 · 16/04/2020 08:12

Morning girls :)

@sunnysideup2020 my Cm changes from EWCM to creamy after I ovulate (I know this from months of tracking haha). I am going to assume I am 1dpo today!

@MilsCookie I think after approaching the 3 month mark is just got to me 😪 4th cycle after mc now and we only managed to did twice in fertile week but I am okay with that as I needed a relaxed approach this month. We are similar timings this month as I am in tww now but only 1dpo

@Leok83 sorry about the bfn:( hopefully there is still a chance this month

@SunnySideUp2020 last cycle my AF arrived 6dpo! Luteal phases vary in length. Ideal are 12-14 but some have much shorter. Mine have been short since MC.

Leok83 · 16/04/2020 08:42

@SunnySideUp2020 & @Anny27 thanks..I’ll prob test again tomorrow and then just wait for AF to arrive. Ya my LP was 11 days prior to MC so on the shorter side and dropped to 10 days since. It’s not ideal so hopefully if AF does come the LP May at least be a bit longer! Said I wouldn’t test early but we’ve of xrays booked in at work today and I just want to make sure I do everything 100% right if I do get PG again like make sure to steer clear of all the X-ray cases!!

MilsCookie · 16/04/2020 15:21

Fingers crossed @Leok83 that it was just too early!!

@SunnySideUp2020 when is af due for you? thinking of you.... really hope this month is your month!!

@scrumdiddly123 how did the bloods go?

@Annny27 like you said it only takes one sperm so fingers crossed that this month works for you taking a more relaxed approach! and that's so good that you know you've definitely ovulated by your cm! when is your af due?

I'm not due af until 29th/30th April so I've just got to try and switch my brain off for the next two weeks although we all know how impossible that is! Hmm

scrumdiddly123 · 16/04/2020 16:18

Thanks for asking @MilsCookie, HCG has gone from 48 on Tuesday to 47 today. They are hopeful that whatever is going on will resolve itself. I need to go back for the consultant to scan me in 10 days time and have another blood test. In the meantime I have open access to the ward and need to go straight away if I have any pain or bleeding.
So much of the same really, more waiting! And praying that my levels start to drop now x

MilsCookie · 16/04/2020 17:16

@scrumdiddly123 but what does that mean? Do they think something is growing in there or not? I'm so, so sorry you're still in limbo land. I know you might not be ready to try again yet if you're not sure what's going on but are you still doing any opks to see if you're still ovulating? Sending hugs xxx

scrumdiddly123 · 16/04/2020 17:31

@MilsCookie yes there’s definitely the start of a pregnancy in there somewhere, they just don’t know where. She said today even if they took me to theatre they still wouldn’t be able to find it as the levels are just too low,
I’ve done a couple of opks this week and got strongish lines on them but think they might be picking up the HCG. Going to wait until I get a negative hpt (hopefully soon!) and go from there.

SunnySideUp2020 · 16/04/2020 18:47

@MilsCookie thanks 😊 AF due 24th... i feel you when you say switching the brain off ! Bit hard though 😌

@scrumdiddly123 i really this is on the way to resolve itself as they said💐

My day21 came back good and confirmed ovulation.
I obviously tried to interpret that maybe i am pregnant which completely stupid because at 7dpo nobody is pregnant 😅

DP is positive about this cycle so i really hope it’s our month- just like you @milscookie and @Annny27 we are on cycle 4 since mc

🌈

MilsCookie · 16/04/2020 19:10

@scrumdiddly123 keeping everything crossed that this all resolves as quickly and painlessly as possible for you. Big hugs xxx

@sunnysideup2020 what is day21? that's positive though that it confirmed ovulation. Haha I would've been looking for clues too!! Fingers crossed this month is all our months!! x

SunnySideUp2020 · 16/04/2020 19:14

@milscookie day21 blood test is progesterone level a week after ovulation so at cd21 for 28 days cycle.
There is a certain amount that’s required to confirm ovulation and possibly sustain a pregnancy...

ChampooPapi · 16/04/2020 19:44

Hey ladies, just checking in with you all because you have all been there pretty much every step. I've been having some brown discharge the last couple of weeks, all normal for 6-8 weeks so didn't worry really. Then today got red bleeding 😣. And it's still coming on and off. It's the low laying heavy feeling pain in my lower abdomen that I am most concerned with combined with the bleeding, I am seriously having a wobble here.

Amazingly I rang the doctor and they have referred me for a.scan tomorrow morning. So I will update as soon as I know. If it's the bad news I think it will be, I know I won't be able to say much so please forgive me if I don't respond for a while and just hide and grieve. I will absolutely update though, and of course I'll be back here to check on your all in a week when I just know a bfp is about to show itself. Or two 🤗

I just can't say enough about the NHS seeing me tomorrow and the doctor responding and understanding in such a way. It is an incredible service. My doctor was a woman so may have got lucky there though 🙄

Love to you all, I'm going to eat chocolate and count my blessings. There is nothing I can do to change the outcome and I will just have to leave it to fate now 🤞

SunnySideUp2020 · 16/04/2020 20:15

@champoo oh no... i am sorry to hear that lovely. I will have everything crossed for you tomorrow. Hope it is just one of those random bleeds of early pregnancy.
You must be so anxious though... sending big hugs xxx 💕💕
Enjoy your chocolate (you definitely deserve it!) and let us know how it goes. Good or bad news we will be here to support you the best we can💓

🤞🏽Flowers🤞🏽

TerribleImagination · 16/04/2020 20:22

@ChampooPapi Your poor thing, I’m so so sorry you’re dealing with that! Crossing everything for you that all is totally normal and well. Sending love ❤️

ChampooPapi · 16/04/2020 20:25

@SunnySideUp2020 @TerribleImagination thank you so much for your kind words, I have very low expectations. But thank goodness I only have to go through tonight before finding out and moving forward either way, God bless the early pregnancy unit at Torbay 💜

Minster2012 · 16/04/2020 21:10

@ChampooPapi 🤞🏻🤞🏻🍀 it’s just a bleed, they are quite common, so you could actually end up seeing a heartbeat xx

pescara33 · 17/04/2020 00:07

Hey ladies can I jump on pls? I MC on the 1st April (nasty april fools!) and the bleeding was only like a light period for a week unlike the MC I had 3 yrs ago before my DD was born...I had cramps with that and horrendous bleeding! With my 2 MCs though I had hardly any symptoms so is this a recurring sign with u all that something isnt right or just me? I had really sore boobs with my daughter.
I'm just really fed up coz I was excited to come out of lockdown and announce my pregnancy, I'm also 37 so aware time is ticking...
Hoping all you lovely ladies get your BFP's soon..me included 🤞🤞🤞

ChampooPapi · 17/04/2020 07:13

@Minster2012 I know it's possible, but I am pessimistic from the stomach pains as well. Still feel sick, so that will make the rainy car journey fun 😣

After my missed one at the 12 week scan, I don't count on symptoms as I had those in buckets and they were just my body producing the hormones to keep the nothingness going.

I will proceed to scream into a pillow before I leave then I'll update as soon as I'm able on my return.

But I'm going to be very pissed off if it's a bad outcome. Why couldn't I have miscarried at 5 weeks before slogging through the last 3 weeks of neseua hell. Dam it.

Appointment is half ten so even my vagina is crossed at this point 🤦🤞

Ejb86 · 17/04/2020 07:27

@ChampooPapi We'll all be thinking of you and have our fingers crossed.

Leok83 · 17/04/2020 07:33

@ChampooPapi im so sorry you are having to go through this. Fingers crossed for you that it’s not bad news 🤞.

Whiffle77 · 17/04/2020 07:50

So sorry to hear your news @ChampooPapi wishing you lots of luck for today, I really hope it is a positive outcome

Melds22 · 17/04/2020 07:54

Its me (pescara33) from above I changed my name. Best of luck @ChampooPapi I hope everything's ok x

ChampooPapi · 17/04/2020 07:58

Thanks ladies 💜 I'll carry your strength and support with me today
