@Eli2020 and I think grapefruit during first half as it helps with CM, Pom post ovu as it helps thicken you’re lining. Apparently.

Hi to all the new members and sorry that you've found yourself here but it's a safe space to vent, talk, ask questions, whatever you need.

I keep clicking on the thread early every morning hoping people are getting their BFPs. We will all get there ❤️

@Jazper I'm talking like I've been on these threads for years, I had surgery for my MMC in March and joined that day so it's only been 3 months but when ttc every week can feel like an eternity 😂

@Renna oh no that's so frustrating, I hope all gets sorted and you can see him. Yeah, sounds busy but good to keep your mind off things.

Absolutely, go for it with the wine. Definitely good to keep things balanced and still relax/enjoy yourself. Haha, Ill pop it in the baby book.

@Eli2020 so GF juice from start of cycle to increase CM (seems to work) and POM juice I think you can drink from any point in the cycle. Its meant to help thicken your lining 😅 xx

@Jazper thank you hun, sent my partner off to the shops so I have pointed him in the right direction haha, x

@SmileyT I'm with you that the whole ttc feels like an eternity I joined in April and feel like I've been here for years ha ha xx

@SmileyT I fee you!! I think I joined the april thread after lurking around in the March one! I’m a bit worried as I’m late 30’s, that my eggs are maybe not so good quality - but I also read that it takes 90days for an egg to mature - so I’m thinking my March, April and May eggs were the ones forming in my body whilst I was pg/mc! That would mean this month heading forwards my eggs have the chance to be lerhaps better quality 🤞🏻

@VP91x @MichT4 got it 😃 thanks a lot-good news is that pomegranate juice seems to be on offer for £3 in Sainsbury's at the moment. Every little helps 😂

@Jazper @MichT4 @Eli2020 mission complete 😂😂

@VP91x haha - That is so true!! There were days I’d come home and just be like “I need to not be touched for a while” to my oh 😂 luckily they are going to fix things for us - but it takes a while as they have to get their builder in (who is sorting iut other houses that have snags too) and also contractors they have used like the window installers, electricians etc - I fear it could be a while lol! xx

@MichT4 it strangely gives me comfort to know that it’s something that seems to happen quite regularly!! Do you still keep finding stuff over time? I guess where they have so many people in for the builds it’s harder to get good quality. There could very well be some people that might do the bare minimum because it would be harder to catch them in a big team! xx

@VP91x girl, you are an inspiration 😃 hope it does all the magic it's supposed to do x

@SmileyT totally hear you on the time going so slow thing. But equally, it's really reassuring to know that there isn't many of you 'originals' left. Gives me hope. I dread it taking months to conceive again but I figure that, by the law of averages, our chance of conceiving gets higher each month 🤷🏽‍♀️ I'm not sure if that's scientifically true but I'm going with it 😂

Well done @VP91x 's OH on the safe retrieval of the magical liquid gold 🙏🏼
I can see POM juices sales sky rocketing over night. Might have to seriously think about those shares 😂😂

And good spot @Eli2020, I'm typically Yorkshire and love a bargain. I'd have probably travelled an extra 8 mile round journey today for that 70p saving 😂

@Jazper I'm from Yorkshire too love a bargain x

Evening all and welcome newcomers, sorry you find yourselves dealing with a loss but glad you've found us all who have been through something similar.
Been having a rough day today, yesterday I'd managed to get my head straight and stop symptom spotting and then today with the on/ off orange coloured CM has driven me mad. My logical brain is saying my body is recovering from MC and is probably just gearing up for a proper AF on Tuesday. The irrational, wanting to be pregnant side of brain is saying implantation. I'm 10dpo so it's about the right time and I'm not having any AF symptoms so it's a possibility I guess. It's just the uncertainty that's making me so irritable! I can't even test because if it is an implantation then probably no point testing for another 2-3 days in any case!
Ah rant over, just needed of offload a bit because I'm also driving DH mad too.
Think I'm going to need to meditate or something later!

@Jazper @Eli2020 ahh I'm such a bargain hunter too normally. I never buy branded stuff from the supermarket. Always the tesco version! But oh well 😂

Definitely shares are something to think about. 😂😂 Fingers crossed for all of us it works this month 🤞

Xx

I'll virtually chin chin 🥂 my glass of POMM juice with you @Dipsy77 . Bargains excite me almost as much as CB static smilies do 😂

@elliew818, sorry to hear you've had a tough day. I totally sympathise. I had so many 'symptoms' last month, the wait was unbearable 😖

@elliew818 sorry to hear you are having a rough day sending love xx

@Renna that's rubbish about oh and his step son fx you get to see him soon. How is the new pup? I'm also thinking about having a glass of wine tonight just one small glass I don't imagine it will do any harm. Xx

@elliew818 ahh, I'm sorry you're having a shit day 😔 and you're right if it is implantation you'd need to wait a couple of days to test. Just think if you have a busy weekend then Monday morning you can test 🙏.

Have you got anything you enjoy doing you can do over the weekend? Xx

@elliew818 ahhh sorry it hasn't been a good day for you. I hope tomorrow is better 😘 if you find some good way to relax, please share. I'm also definitely driving DH crazy. I can't relax really... I try to occupy myself with things at home but my mind is just focused on getting pregnant.

@SmileyT will be our time soon hun for sure xx positive vibes xx

@Jazper I found out I had MMC at my 11 weeks scan on 26th feb so I lurked mainly in the Feb/march threads. I had ERPC 3rd march , got straight on with tracking OPKs etc once bleeding stopped but never got a peak . My periods came back roughly similar to my cycle length pre MC . Then joined the april thread properly been in them since then . The first proper cycle in April I did OPKs and temping and prenatal vits. Hit me hard when AF came had a massive cry and down days and DH said to maybe take a more relaxed approach so in May I didnt temp just did opks. And now in June I've thrown everything at It. Been temping , got the ava bracelet , opks, fert illy cup , lots of supplements , grapefruit juice and followed SMEP to a T.. currently in TWW . AF due in like a week. So well see if this all in approach works ! 🤞🤞 it took us about 3 to 4 months to conceive first time before MC so maybe itll take take long this time and hoping I'll fall this month or next at least ..... 🌈🤞😓 xxxx

Thanks ladies, you're all so lovely and understanding! It actually does feel better just telling you all that I've lost the plot lol
Well the weather is supposed to be better tomorrow and doing some social distancing visits to our family over the weekend so there will be plenty to distract me and make me feel better.
Tonight however I've got the 200th quiz since lockdown started, I swear I'm going on the chase after all this is over!

@HE88 thanks hun hoping we get it sorted too soon ! 🙄🤞 xx pup is so good and getting so funny and cheeky I've just come back from the park all muddy as she was digging haha I'll upload a pic may cheer up some doggy lovers hehe . She does make all this so much easier I actually feel like shes my little baby in a way and shell always be special in that way getting me through this yano 😁💞 how are you doing hun xx

I joined in April but lurked feb/March fingers crossed for BFPs soon x

@VP91x thanks babe 🤞 xxx
