@Charbinxs test again in the morning :) xx

Naera95 · 04/05/2020 03:47

Hey ladies. CD 8 today and trying SMEP so very excited for BD tonight. How are you all going xx

Charbinxs · 05/05/2020 13:17

Hey ladies,

need some advice?
Now day 39 of my cycle and no sign of AF still getting little cramps and pinches and horrendous headaches. Took another test this morning bfn.... but I've woken up with this tan like mark on my hand?? I havent touched anything just went to bed without it and woke up with it... I first tried washing it off and nothing so its definitely my skin... havent touch any dye, bleach, tan, rush... absolutely no chemicals. Did a google and some womens posting about it found out they were pregnant?? Panicking a little bit as I've never seen anything like this before...

Honestly @Charbinxs it looks like what tends to happen to me when I have a stray grain of instant coffee stuck to my hand 😂

Charbinxs · 05/05/2020 15:04

@ArjaD it's so bizarre isnt it? I think it's some sort of deficiency but it's so strange 🙈

NicoleR14 · 06/05/2020 15:08

Hi ladies sorry I haven't been on as we've had a lot to deal with these last few days I am still on the same cycle I'm on CD71 with no signs of my period and still a lot of bfn's I'm currently having a breakdown as my breasts have been sore and I thought this was it I have taken a test and got a bfn so I'm not feeling great lol how is everyone doing

Aw @NicoleR14 been thinking of you lots. What a crappy situation. I wish i could help! If only the gp would do that blood test 🙁

NicoleR14 · 06/05/2020 17:42

@ArjaD it has been quiet bad Its really starting to run me down now and I'm feeling it quiet bad but gp won't do nothing and that is making me a thousand times worse! How are you getting on?

ArjaD · 06/05/2020 19:09

@NicoleR14 would it help at all if you told them it's affecting your mental health? That usually gets them moving... 🙁 I'm ok thanks, still waiting on an appt with the midwife, almost 7 weeks now.

Sungirl11 · 06/05/2020 19:13

Hi girls! I've been quite busy these days too.
@NicoleR14 i honestly don't understand that they won't do anything after two missed periods... one maybe but two? I feel this is a lack of care and it can't be very legal...
@ArjaD how are you doing!? Feeling any different?
I am on 3dpo today, i did CB opks and the peak was 3 days before expected on the apps so good job i did them! We've been quite active but i am quite negative atm... after over a year it's just impossible to think that everything is ok, but GP doesn't want me to go and get my blood test done either so we are not going anywhere.
Another month lost in limbo.
Lets hope everything goes back to normal soon so we can get some answers some day.
Btw congrats to all those BFP!! Hope you girls are ok too!!
How is everyone else doing??
Xx

shelly10111 · 06/05/2020 20:32

@Sungirl11 keep positive because we were on month 8 feeling so low and like soemthing was majorly wrong after constant chemicals and now it's happened I still can't quite believe it, hope you ladies are all doing well, @NicoleR14 will they not even do the hormone bloods to see that your ovulating? Although they can't do it until your on your period :(
I'm five weeks today, I've never known tiredness like it, by 2pm I'm a write off, my two girls keep asking why mummy is being so out of character aka lazy !

ArjaD · 06/05/2020 22:47

@Sungirl11 aw I really hope it's your month, it's been a long ride. Easy for me to say to stay positive but it will happen. Just wish gp's would take you all more seriously, I'm fuming for you, it's insane it really is.
I'm ok, bit bleh, not much appetite. But i eat anyway because i know I have to. First trimester was like that for me last time too, just really tired and not wanting much food. And so thirsty....
@Shelly10111 I feel you, my wee boy keeps trying to drag me around and I'm like, mummy's just going to sit here for a while...... Like the whole day 🤣

Carol1980 · 09/05/2020 13:23

@nicoleR14 I'm so sorry to hear that your having a rough time x
It's such a shitty shitty situation to be in x
My hope is that it's not something like an ectopic pregnancy for you it's just such a weird frustrating situation x

Sorry I've been quiet x
Not feeling that fabulous today.

I'm 15dpo and been getting very faint lines on IC x done a frer rapid response the other day and it was a faint line, barely noticeable, so did a frer early one this morning and it was negative 👎

So on to next month for me here.

Quite disappointed but feck all I can do about it x I've obviously had the beginnings of a pregnancy but it's not taken 🤷‍♀️

ArjaD · 09/05/2020 13:58

@Carol1980 aw that sucks. Not many positive stories so far on here this month 😔

shelly10111 · 09/05/2020 14:10

@Carol1980 so bloody disappointing I feel you, had so many chemical pregnancies and you really cling on to it ending up being a good strong line :( hope everyone's well, 5+3 today, wishing for the time I can eat chocolate again etc

Sungirl11 · 09/05/2020 15:27

Hi ladies! I was about to ask how you all are and saw you already messaged today.

@Carol1980 i'm over a week later than you now so still have quite a bit to wait... 6dpo only.
I'm sorry you are not getting positive results... why are we not lucky!!!?? Even thought if it looks like it is happening just not sticky enough it's something positive to think!! Just need a sticky bean to appear.

For us it's cycle14 this month! It's a lot i think... too much. ☹️
I was looking at private consultations for fertility MOT and saw around £450 for both of us. It's a lot of money tbh but if this month we're out we will consider doing it.

I send lots of hugs to everyone xx

Carol1980 · 09/05/2020 20:29

Ffs so I also got AF this afternoon as well 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷‍♀️ cd 25 so 3 days earlier than I've had the past few months 🙄🙄

Higgeldypiggeldy35 · 10/05/2020 09:44

@carol1980 Sorry to hear that. It's been a frustrating month here too. I've had loads of symptoms but keep getting negative tests. My boobs were so tingly last night so I did a test this morning and still negai. I think my body is playing tricks on me. I'm cycle day 20 and AF is due in 3 days.

Donnat89 · 10/05/2020 18:00

Hi ladies sorry I haven't been around much I've had a lot of family stuff going on so literally haven't had time to even breath only dawned on me that I was like 4DPO or something in not even sure OPKS went out the window with everything going on so I'm just playing the waiting game and highly doubt this month is my month !

@NicoleR14 so sorry still no AF and BFP I was really hoping I would see some news from you by now I cannot believe you're GP still isn't doing anything !

Xxx

vikki414 · 13/05/2020 09:49

Hi everyone, I was on this thread a while ago and things looked positive, I had breast tenderness and last week I was due my af but didn't show so Monday just gone I took 2 test both were BFP!! Me and my OH were excited but last night and this morning I started bleeding with clots (sorry tmi) I've read so many mixed articles and I'm going to talk to my vp this morning but could it be possible to still be pregnant after bleeding heavily with clots?

Would really appreciate any help or advice i can't stop crying 😢 xxxx

vikki414 · 13/05/2020 09:50

also I've lost the breast tenderness 😢

dizzy85 · 13/05/2020 10:57

Hey ladies, sorry I disappeared for a while it was all doing my head in. Anyway I was told a week ago to wait till today to test as was still positive last week and I've tested this morning and it was a barely there line on FRER so it's confirmed it was another miscarriage unfortunately. At least I know now, it has been so stressful. I'm not gonna bother to try anymore until they've tested me but have no idea how long that'll take given the state of the world.
How is everyone doing? I hope your all well xxx

@vikki414 so sorry your going through this, i have just had a similar thing happen to me which unfortunately it was a miscarriage for me. I'm not saying that is going to be the case for you and I really hope it isn't because I know how heartbreaking it is, that was my 3rd in a row. But my advice is to speak to your dr asap and hopefully they can either do some blood tests or arrange for a scan. I personally spoke to my dr and opted to wait it out as I didn't want to visit the hospital at this time. It's taken 3 weeks for me to get my final answer without having any tests done and that is going by today's hpt which has given me my confirmation.
I did spend the last 3 weeks driving myself crazy googling lots of different stories of heavy bleeding and clots and from what I read it seems to be 50/50 on the outcomes. So I really do hope that for you it is a positive one. I would say try to relax but I know that's impossible, but there's some great support on this thread so if you need to talk or ask anything we are here. Take care xxx

vikki414 · 13/05/2020 11:22

@dizzy85 im so sorry to hear of your loss I've just spoken to the doctor and she said its definitely a miscarriage this time and to let my body go through it and try again after my next af 😢 as I was only just 5 weeks its too early for a scan or blood tests so I've just got to wait it out now 😢 thank you I really hope you get everything sorted and I really hope it works out for you soon ❤ xxxx

ArjaD · 13/05/2020 11:51

@vikki414 I'm so sorry for the news, that's awful 😣 like @dizzy85 says, we're here if you need a chat xxx
@dizzy85 also sad news for you, I'm so sorry. Was thinking we were preggy buddies 😢 I hope you get an outcome and solution ASAP after the tests!!!

dizzy85 · 13/05/2020 12:51

@vikki414 Thankyou ❤️ I'm so sorry for you too it's such an awful thing and I hope it works out for you next time you try xxx
