@Kaciii here is the new thread xx
@Nmew nice to here from you! Our thread is international! How is everything? X

Kaciii · 22/04/2020 18:01

Hi ladies, I’ve been trying to conceive since feb This year but I had my implant birth control taken out on the 3rd of feb so have been trying since then, but have discovered I have bv so treated that with antibiotics and treated for pid just incase as couldn’t be tested as coronavirus is happening, and them antibiotics gave me a yeast infection :( so I used a canesten pessary Monday night, meant to be ovulating friday could I try to conceive and dtd tonight and tomorrow or should I leave it this month :( thank you x

Donnat89 · 22/04/2020 18:03

So did a FRER Invalid bloody test no lines at all so gonna wait until morning to take the next one as don't want to waste it .

If AF still a no show will be a good sign !

The wait continues !

Jaylou7 · 22/04/2020 18:05

You too lovely. It really is so awful. I prey that you conceive on your next cycle. It’s the waiting game isn’t it. I don’t think this will be my month. To be honest my anxiety is not helping x

Bbutterfly · 22/04/2020 18:24

Hey @Kaciii glad you made it over here.
I am not sure on this one? I would say if you have infection to maybe hold of today let it clear up over tonight and tomorrow, if you are ovulating Friday then you still are in the game bests to not irritate it may make it worse then you bugger yourself for Friday... that's what I would do but I do get how you feel as I get desperate to try on all days to have the best chance
@Donnat89 OMG! How's your luck. Can't wait to hear in the morning ♥️

Donnat89 · 22/04/2020 19:07

@Bbutterfly don't I'm so annoyed but am happy to wait until tomorrow and see if AF arrives tomorrow or not

At least I should have a nice strong line tomorrow if BFP so takes away the guessing . Just one more day to wait lol !

Jaylou7 · 22/04/2020 19:14

Hope you get your BFP XX

Donnat89 · 22/04/2020 19:20

@Jaylou7 thanks hun ! X

Kaciii · 22/04/2020 19:23

Thanks @Bbutterfly I will hold out untill Friday, I just am so desperate haha, spreading baby dust to u all xx

Donnat89 · 22/04/2020 19:43

Cramps seem to be back and quite bad this evening defo feel like AF cramps , back ache too I fully expect AF to be here tomorrow 🙁

Early night for me I think as feeling a bit disheartened now

Xx

Jaylou7 · 22/04/2020 20:18

Thank you 😊 🙏@Bbutterflyxx

Jaylou7 · 22/04/2020 20:19

Messed up again 😫! Thank you 😊 🙏 @Bbutterfly xxx

ArjaD · 22/04/2020 20:23

@Kaciii I think your gp is really the one to talk to, that's a lot of stuff... 😳

ArjaD · 22/04/2020 20:26

@Donnat89 oh ffs what are the tests doing to everyone this month 🙄🙄 I'll be on here first thing in the morning to check for your news lol.

Donnat89 · 22/04/2020 20:36

@ArjaD got some spotting so think il be in full flow by morning

I think il avoid testing early next cycle as it's just not healthy to get my hopes up like that . And don't want to carry on like that as it's too much for me .

I'm feeling ok a bit gutted but learnt my lesson I think and not testing early anymore xxx

Sungirl11 · 22/04/2020 20:50

Omg ladies 190 messages already! Should i start setting up thread 4?? 😂
A lot of reading to do tonight...
@dizzy85 i've read yours and i am so extremely sorry 😞 it makes me mad to read this as you are the third person i "know" to mc. The other two are friends and it doesn't just make me mad that nature does this to women but that i know of more mc than good term pg! 😠
I send you all my love and if there is anything we can do be asures we are here for you. If you'd like a nice bottle of wine i'm more than happy to post it to you!! Honestly anything!

Welcome to the new faces! I've seen some names i don't recognise.

I saw yest you posted some lovely pics of your kiddos!! They are all gorgeous!! I have two furry babies which i absolute love and they both send you lots of juicy licks!!

I was born here in UK but raised in Spain (my parents are one from each place). My husband is from the Catalunya area where i was raised too.
I then moved to Paris and from there we moved to the UK to stay... if this virus lets our house be constructed we will move to Essex someday to our new house! We are so excited!! And no kids but we are trying!! Hahah 🤞🏼🤞🏼

I'll read through and update on you girls!
My af has lasted 2 days (crazy huh..) anyway! Haha time to start again! Xx

Third thread for ttc!
Bethy1995 · 22/04/2020 21:06

So a bit of an odd one for you guys...CD1 was supposed to be the 12th of april...instead for the days where i was supposed to have AF i had contant tummy ache in the reigeon where id usually have period pains...like a dull ache with clear/white CM thought AF would come any minute...now on the 14th i had bfn and again bfn on the 16th...havent tested since but still no af and im on CD 31 which hasnt happened since i had a MC in july last year (had implant out on the 9th may 2019 tested from then right through)...i dont want to keep testing and getting disheartened but i do have one test left i am now 10 days late...how long do i leave it given the fact ive had 2 previous bfn's?

ArjaD · 22/04/2020 21:16

@bethy1995 aw that's a hard one too. Maybe phone the gp and see what they recommend... Otherwise I would say maybe 2 or 3 days wait between tests to give hcg a chance to go up? Sorry may not be helpful!
@Sungirl11 wow that's a background 😊 your dogs are cute! And I hope your house gets built asap after all this 😊

shelly10111 · 22/04/2020 21:28

Wow so many comments ! @dizzy85 I know a virtual hug means nothing but honestly I feel the pain in your heart right now, have you had any sort of bloods done? Weird you mention the pill as both my daughters were first month first time and two misscarriage and two chemicals later after being on the pill for just two years I feel broken inside! Mine is apparently all normal but In my heart think otherwise it's just strange ! So push for blood work and work on partner and we've been told it would be my OH sperm cells causing constant chemicals and September we got to week 5 and then lost it :(

Hope your all ok ladies sorry just read through quickly else I would never catchup, spent quality time with family today as to be honest this baby journey caused a big of a breakdown in our relationship this week as I'm just so upset it's not happened yet it's started causing arguments :(

Bethy1995 · 22/04/2020 21:30

@ArjaD i know, it is a hard one but previosuly my GP hasnt been helpful at all so im reluctant to go to them. Last year i knew i was pregnant and fell straight after implant removal...id gone nearly 10 weeks without a period and constant negative tests...i called my gp and they told me to stop testing, so i did. I then finally got a bfp when i noticed i started falling asleep in the middle of the day and miscarried a week and a half later so really i guess i dont have amy confidence at all in GP's with ttc

Bbutterfly · 22/04/2020 22:16

@shelly10111 I'm sorry about your ttc journey, I hope quality family time has made you feel better. It is so difficult when you are so desperate and it's all you can think about, I joined this group in the beginning because all you girls are such a great support even to just rant to, I used to drive hubby mad with what if this what it that. And he doesn't know the answers lol. I know it's hard but it's all completely out our control and that's why we freak out about it. Try not to argue over things you can't control. I just try to visualise myself with the family I've dreamed of and trust the universe that it is coming to me when it's due. ♥️ hope you're ok.
@Bethy1995 this is difficult, what is wrong with a lot of our gps!? All I'm hearing is how shit they are! 10 days late you must be going out your mind @NicoleR14 is over 3 weeks late and her gp isn't giving her any info until Monday! I would also wait a couple of days as said below to see if the levels go up.
Xxxx

shelly10111 · 22/04/2020 22:25

Thanks @Bbutterfly ! I feel so ungrateful because I have children 2 girls, but he's raised them and they aren't his, my youngest calls him dad and we are so desperate to just complete us as a family, I know we're only one month 8 but feels like a loooong time! And yes makes my day really to just talk to woman who are all going through it !

Naera95 · 22/04/2020 22:34

@Bbutterfly @Donnat89 thank you so much ladies for your kind words they really mean a lot. Don’t really have anyone to talk to about TTC as none of my friends are even thinking about having children so makes it a lot harder x

Bethy1995 · 22/04/2020 22:56

@Bbutterfly its so frustrating. Ttc is such a tough battle to go through they dont seem to get it at all. Omg bless her! @NicoleR14 sending love and hugs you must be going out of your mind also. Fingers crossed for bfp for us all soon! Im debating testing again tomorrow or friday i havent decided which yet but will keep you updated.

@Naera95 thinking of you!

ArjaD · 23/04/2020 05:47

@bethy1995 yes what @Bbutterfly said, what is wrong with some GPS... There should be a ttc support unit or something because it sounds like they are just not doing enough! Hope that bfp comes no matter what.
Yes ladies this community has helped me get through the months of ttc! Feels like we've been chatting forever 😊
