I'm 31 TTC #1 after a MC in March this year, AF has just finished and I'm on CD6 and all ready to go for my 2nd full cycle.

This month I will be tracking with opks, CB connected, BBT and following SMEP plan.

@Spottybluepyjamas yeah use the frer with fmu good luck. Xx

@SmileyT happy peak day enjoy your round of dtd are you following SMEP this cycle? Xx

SmileyT · 29/05/2020 01:28

@VP91x @HE88 was supposed to be a 3day stint following SMEP but apparently DP was too tired/ stressed so no sex tonight - feel like we've wasted the month 😩

@Spottybluepyjamas welcome and I'm sorry for your loss, did you track ovulation at all? Could it be that you're not as many dpo as you think so the tests aren't picking up hcg? Fingers crossed for you xx

@SmileyT ah no don't think like that! You DTD day before anyway didn't you? And he will probably be fine for today/tomorrow and that will have you more than covered, honestly ❤️

VP91x · 29/05/2020 04:14

Morning ladies, I mean look how early my body has woken me up!?

Test update - BFN 😭

Not even an evap or squinter to muse over. Tested with a FRER and CB early test. I feel crushed. Especially as my temp was higher today too. Xx

SmileyT · 29/05/2020 05:37

@VP91x oh no I really did have everything crossed for you, I know you know this but it is still early and nothing is conclusive, will you test daily? Or wait until Sunday to test again? 😩 and yeah I'm hoping that we can DTD tonight without issue, been a weird week for us 🤷🏾‍♀️ xx

@VP91x hey u dnt get too down in the dumps its still veerrry early days at 10dpo.. when is AF due and its a good thing ur temps r still up 🙏🙏 implantation still has time yet x

Ejb86 · 29/05/2020 05:52

BFN here this morning. As expected. Had BFN with my lb at 9dpo and then BFP at 10dpo though, so not lost all hope yet.

VP91x · 29/05/2020 06:04

@Ejb86 how are you feeling? You definitely are still in. Fingers crossed for when you next test xx

@Hayleylou89 thank you hun, not feeling so positive! But will just have to wait and see xxx

VP91x · 29/05/2020 06:09

@SmileyT thank you ❤️ I'm not sure what is best? I might hold off until Sunday if AF doesn't show tomorrow. Is it too early for wine? 🍷😭

I really hope he makes it up to you today! Men can be so moody. Hope you are ok xx

Ejb86 · 29/05/2020 06:20

@VP91x I'm feeling ok thanks. Tbh this is my first cycle post MC that has been of a more normal length. To expect to have been lucky enough to fall pregnant is probably a bit much. Having said that, I'll probably still test every day until AF shows her ugly face.

Are you ok?

VP91x · 29/05/2020 06:53

@Ejb86 I don't think it was unrealistic, you get hopeful once you start to get a bit back more to normal. I'm alright - flitting between being upset and trying to be hopeful. I think I will probably be there with you testing everyday! Xx

1990EM · 29/05/2020 09:16

@Ejb86 and @VP91x first thing I checked this morning was to see if you'd tested. Sorry no BFP yet but there's still time!! I'm still so hopeful for you. Haven't said much on here the last few days- had a rough time when friends announced a pregnancy with the EXACT same due date as our little one we lost this month. but following the thread daily and loving the updates. Happy Friday all and hope this weekend brings good news for those testing!!

Ejb86 · 29/05/2020 09:50

@1990EM other people's pregnancies are difficult to handle aren't they?

Thanks for thinking of us...there's hope for us yet!

VP91x · 29/05/2020 09:53

@1990EM ah that's so sweet, thank you ❤️
I'm sorry you've had a rough few days, I would have been devastated too. I hope you have treated yourself to something to make you feel good?xx

Renna · 29/05/2020 10:08

Sorry BFNs this morning ladies but I still have fingers crossed for you , you're still not out xxx @VP91x @Ejb86 x

So I've just finished another weeks course of antibiotics, macrobid, for a possible UTI, nurse gave me last Friday and I was on a course of antibiotics last month for the same thing . I think the symptoms have gone but not 100% sure so ive called GP and I'm going in with urine sample to give them.

I told them I keep having a pain in my lower abdomen since the ERPC early March, its deffo associated with the surgery as it happened just after and only comes back now when I'm on AF or if I'm like bloated /exercise.

So they're also getting me to do a vaginal swab and book me in for an ultrasound x

I'm not too worried about it as the pain isnt really bad but it's been 3 months now and be good to just put my mind at ease if the pain is something to worry about or not 🤞 xx
Anyone else who had surgery notice anything like this ?
It's like a stitch/stabbing kind of pain and only happens during AF or exercise of bloating. Xx
During surgery I did loose 600ml of blood when the usual is apparently like 50ml so I'm thinking I may have like an internal cut or something.

Just kinda wanna make sure it's not like scar tissue that could be detrimental to TTC xx

2020wish · 29/05/2020 10:09

@VP91x @Ejb86 you girls aren’t out of the game yet. Still very early days!

@1990EM I’m dreading anyone new around me announcing pregnancies. The hurt is real

Renna · 29/05/2020 10:10

How are you today @2020wish hun? Xx

VP91x · 29/05/2020 11:00

@Renna thank you xx

The only experience I have is when I still had retained tissue post ERPC. Lower abdomen was really tender and it was painful. Definitely get it checked out. I hope everything is okay xx

VP91x · 29/05/2020 11:01

Thank you @2020wish how is everything? Xx

2020wish · 29/05/2020 11:15

Im good. Excited to get my blood results back on Monday and just want this bleeding to stop so I get back on the band wagan. Don’t know whether to temp this month or take the more relaxed approach. Bleeding has lasted longer than normal AF so that’s strange for a chemical

elliew818 · 29/05/2020 11:32

Sorry to hear about the BFNs today @VP91x and @Ejb86...I don’t track ovulation so I don’t know how many DPO I was but with my last pregnancy I did a test 3 days before AF was due and had a BFN then got a very BFP 4 days later so you never know!

elliew818 · 29/05/2020 11:37

@SmileyT I totally sympathise with you when DTD isn’t happening as regular as you need it to. We have had off months in the past and can feel really frustrating when you’re TTC. Especially for you taking all the supplements and doing all your tracking! If it helps, the last time we got pregnant we only did it twice that month.
@Renna sorry I can’t comment on surgery as I had medical management but I’m sure someone else can help out. It’s good you’re going docs to try and figure it out though.

HopeForRainbowbaby · 29/05/2020 11:53

@2020wish how many days is your bleeding going on? My first miscarriage bleeding was 10 days so I expect this miscarriage bleeding to be shorter as i was only at 5 weeks pregnancy now. I feel for you! My relative announced pregnancy( twins) just two weeks after I lost first pregnancy. It was very tough...

Hoping for BFPs for two ladies who are testing this weekend 😘

2020wish · 29/05/2020 13:25

It’s day 5, af for me is usually only 4 days , I was expecting it to be like af for some reason. Oh that’s hard having announcements like that. Ok so fed up with that’s early loses when I’m trying so hard but with my daughter I fell pregnant when I was on the pill and out drinking and partying every night 10 years ago lol

gwen7896 · 29/05/2020 13:49

Hello,

Hope you don't mind if I join you... I had a miscarriage at weeks back in December (great NYE!!) and a chemical back in February. I have PCOS so my cycles are very unpredictable. AF is due in the next couple of days but I'm too nervous to test as last time I had a BFP followed by AF 2 days later...
