@ArjaD thanks ❤️ aw I know me too I'm gutted that would have been lovely ay. I have a phone appointment tomorrow with the dr to discuss my referral to the recurrent miscarriage unit so hopefully I'll know more tomorrow 🤞🏻 I hope your getting on ok? Xxx

ArjaD · 13/05/2020 13:12

@dizzy85 that's good, I hope they are speedy about it so you have your answers. I'm OK ta. Saw midwife yesterday, scan booked for 12th June. Plodding on, no fan of the actual being pregnant same as last time, but it's nothing 😊

vikki414 · 13/05/2020 14:10

@dizzy85 Thank you ❤ it is hard but I really hope it works out for both of us 🤞🤞🤞 xxx

vikki414 · 13/05/2020 14:13

@ArjaD Thank you ❤ just having the support is amazing my OH has been so good even though he had to work he has been ringing me when he can! it is heartbreaking and I know we can try again just have to go with the emotional rollercoaster right now 😢 xxx

Dipsy77 · 13/05/2020 16:33

Hi can I join ?
I'm 43 (time ticking on for me)have 2 older DD 23 and 21 and a DD at 7 months with new DP.
I had a MMC in feb at 9 1/2 weeks (baby would have been due on my 7 month olds first birthday!)
I'm now ttc. Just started 2nd AF since MMC as I had retained tissue so bled for a longtime and had to have 2 lots of medication.
Hoping to try SMEP this cycle
Fingers crossed to all x

ArjaD · 13/05/2020 17:57

@Dipsy77 welcome to the club 😊 sorry for your loss, you're brave going for number 4 though ☺️☺️ I think 2 will do for me!

Bbutterfly · 13/05/2020 22:44

Hey ladies, I'm so sorry I haven't been on for a while I felt the same everything was getting too much I felt like I was going even more crazy than I normally am lol! @dizzy85 I'm really sorry it's confirmed and I hope they can refer you and sort this out sooner rather than later I hope you are ok. @ArjaD so nice to hear you're doing well and got the scan all booked ♥️
@vikki414 sorry to hear that about you too, I hope soon you can try again and we are here if you need us.
@NicoleR14 how you doing?
Hey @Dipsy77 I hope you get your bfp soon

Sorry about the mmc in feb hopefully your smep works for you!
I'm still trying fertile week for me so fingers crossed. So over this every month! Xxx

vikki414 · 14/05/2020 07:54

@Bbutterfly thank you that means a lot it's weird though I seemed to have stopped bleeding I thought with mc the bleeding goes on for at least a week? Anyone experience the same? Xxxx

ArjaD · 14/05/2020 07:59

@Bbutterfly so great to hear from you. I think a lot of us have just felt the effects of everything that's been going on, no wonder you needed a wee break from it! Really hope this is your month ❤️ which cycle is this for you? I know I shouldn't complain, but I have been a lot sicker now than last time. Literally sitting with my head out the window for fresh air atm. Good luck to all you ladies, I really hope to see good news on here soon ❤️❤️❤️🤞

1littlewren · 14/05/2020 08:53

Morning ladies,

Without meaning to sound like a crazy lady I have been reading though all your threads over the past few days. You came up on one of my crazy google searches of post ovulation symptoms and I’ve been hooked on hearing all your stories. It’s so refreshing to hear a group of women talking honestly. So much heartache and so much joy. Congratulations to those who have conceived, such an exciting time. To those that are still trying or have experienced loss you have my deepest sympathies and hope that it will happen soon for you.

I have a wonderful 19month old boy called Wren and as soon as he hit 18 months I had a desperate itch to have another. My OH was an only child until he was about 13 so he’s not massively bothered either way. I on the other hand have secretly turned into a crazy lady. I am 11dpo today and yes I am symptom spotting like a loon and have taken way too many tests. Two CB came back BFP but I had evap lines with those last month so not hopeful. All the others have been BFN. I have now used my stash and will not buy more (so i keep telling myself)

Anyway, that’s me. Hoping you don’t mind if I join your little group 😊

Charbinxs · 14/05/2020 09:20

@1littlewren Welcome to the group 🙂 lovely to hear about your little one and that your ttc #2. We're ttc#1 but no luck yet, although my last AF was in March but i'm to scared to take another test in case it's another bfn but i'm also a crazy lady and symptom spotting like mad. 😂 Fingers crossed for you, hopefully it's your month and you'll get your bfp xx

ArjaD · 14/05/2020 09:26

@1littlewren welcome 🙂 I was in the opposite boat, wasn't too bothered about another but hubby would have a football team if he could 🤣🤣 2 will be enough for us!

Sungirl11 · 14/05/2020 14:47

Hi ladies!
Welcome to all the new ones!
How are you all?
@ArjaD i'm so glad you are doing so well, please complain as much as you want for feeling sick!! Even thought for some of us it's being a hard path, you don't have to hide your feelings or excitement... it's not your fault so please fill us with pregnancy complaints and all that stuff 😊
@dizzy85 i think of you a lot, i feel anxious it's cycle 15 for us and nothing has happened but your situation is by far sadder than mine... hope you can get some answers soon, it looks like we are starting to go back to normal a bit now so lets pray we get some answers.
@vikki414 i'm so sorry for you too! I hope you get back on track soon with a healthy pregnancy 🤞🏼
@Bbutterfly @NicoleR14 how are you doing??

I am 11dpo today and have been really patient this month... no tests. Last night i started spotting a bit of brown discharge so i believe af is on her way sooner this month. She is driving us bananas. I feel i have resigned myself to thinking it's not going to happen naturally 🙄 what a joy huh?
Anyway! Hoping we can get some answers soon too even if it's private consultation and see what is going on.

Xx

vikki414 · 14/05/2020 15:12

Thanks @Sungirl11 I hope the next one will stick 🤞🤞🤞🤞 staying ever hopeful xxxx

ArjaD · 14/05/2020 15:13

@Sungirl11 aw that's so nice, thank you ☺️ amazing willpower not having tested yet!! 11 dpo could be implantation bleed so I've got it allll crossed 🤞 are you thinking about a checkup for you both if things aren't working out? X

Sungirl11 · 14/05/2020 15:36

Thanks girls!!
@ArjaD well we actually have the other blood test petition there for me and the sperm test for him in the cupboard waiting until this clears up and we can get them done!
But if i get told once more it's not important we will go private... i can't cope anymore with being told my health is not important... 🙈

ArjaD · 14/05/2020 15:49

@Sungirl11 it's so rubbish health professionals call it unimportant! I bet if it would happen to them they would change their tune! Honestly so many ladies on here tell horror stories about their gp and it is insane 😳

Sungirl11 · 14/05/2020 16:51

@ArjaD i know!! I was raised in Spain and there all doctors are really focused and helpful with these things. My friends have even had egg count when they said they wanted to have babies.. like they make sure everything is ok and let them go and try.. here they can't care less which i don't get!
It's bad.. i'm just angry i can't go to Spain and get a check up done with all this covid! Haha it would be easier and quicker for sure.
Anyway, this is how it came so we need to be patient. I just hope it's nothing complicated and i can get something sorted quick and have a baby which we reaaaally desire haha ♥️♥️
I want my big boy to have a baby to kiss all day (my labrador haha) 🥰

ArjaD · 14/05/2020 18:05

@Sungirl11 awww your boy would love it I'm sure ❤️ it will happen. Sometimes it just takes time. Don't understand the British health care, I grew up in Belgium and they would have checked by now too.

Donnat89 · 15/05/2020 09:31

Hi ladies

Hope everyone is well !

I think I'm 9DPO today and not tempted to test yet , have back ache and been a moody cow last few days so pretty certain AF will arrive next week , I'm gonna try not to test until Wednesday as AF should arrive about then . It's nice being a bit more chilled this month so I hope it Carry's on for the next few days ! I'm Hoping next cycle I'm able to track properly just want to get through this second week now !

Good luck to everyone still waiting to test xx

Naera95 · 15/05/2020 10:06

@Donnat89 hoping you are well too! Sending lots of baby dust your way for you BFP.
I am currently 4DPO and already going crazy in this 2 week wait!! X

ArjaD · 17/05/2020 13:29

How is everyone? Xxx ❤️❤️

Sungirl11 · 17/05/2020 16:00

Hi @ArjaD!
I had af earlier than expected... she is going nuts!! Tomorrow hubby and i will go to the GP for the blood test, literally will just turn up. As last month when i called they insisted i went after 15days... so it's now more than that i will go and say that is what i was told haha
We need to be cheeky! Wish me luck! Xx

How are you doing? And everyone else??

ArjaD · 17/05/2020 16:05

Good luck @Sungirl11! 🤞🤞🤞🤞 Yeah sometimes you need to be cheeky. My hubby always says it's easier to get forgiveness later rather than permission first. I'm OK ta. Just plodding on feeling yukkie and hoping the second trimester will be easier.

shelly10111 · 17/05/2020 16:55

Hope all you lovely ladies are well! @ArjaD glad I'm not the only one, I'm 6+4 and my food aversions change constantly and feeling yucky every day all day and could sleep like a hibernating bear! Crazy how different this pregnancy is, hoping it's a sign of a boy !
