@xoJellyBean it would be amazing :) i’m feeling a bit down about it all at the moment. Don’t think it’s ever going to happen!

duckii · 15/08/2020 19:11

Let's stay positive @hollywhooo let's make some soy babies!
@xoJellyBean it's my first day having the soy tablets, I hope I don't forget to take them for the next few days as I have family staying over atm and really busy!

xoJellyBean · 15/08/2020 19:57

@hollywhooo so am I, just got af too and I'm back from camping and a beach day so my tired emotions are out 😂 let's try the soy anyways and see how we go 🤍

@duckii is this CD3 for you today?? Are you taking them at night? I just got the Tesco ones so hope they're alright

@xoJellyBean I got the Tesco ones too. I have just realised I think I'm on cd 4? But when I started af it was late in the evening so I'm not sure if that's classified as cd 1? So confusing! So I'll just say this is cd3, taken 2 tabs 80mg. Are you going to start soon?

restingbface · 16/08/2020 00:50

Hi ladies! Long time lurker here (sorry! 🤣) My cycles range from 40-55 days. I’m currently CD3 & going to try soy this month also, stocked up on OPKs also so fingers crossed🤞🏼 Xx

SarahTTC2020 · 16/08/2020 06:54

Hey ladies, just did a frer on 14dpo and it was so white 😔 getting crampy now and if AF comes today that's cd37 so in the middle of my latest ones at 33-45 days.
Wondering whether to try soy as well then, do you have a photo of the Tesco ones?

duckii · 16/08/2020 07:40

Welcome @restingbface looks like we are on the same CD, hopefully this works out for us. How long have you been trying for?

You never know you still might be in for a chance?? Fingers crossed!

These are the ones I'm using

Hey ladies, I really hope the soy works for you all too 🤞🏻 I'm currently in hospital due to a suspected ectopic 😞 Hoping and praying it's not, feeling very very emotional and worried...and to top it all have passed out twice since they put a canula in my arm so have also been on oxygen and now a drip. Sorry for offloading, it's just so hard not having my husband here and no one else knowing what's going on x

Angelchops30 · 16/08/2020 13:19

@Tink2019 I hope everything turns out ok for you, never apologise for off loading or having a rant! I have my fingers crossed that it all works out for you

Pol96 · 16/08/2020 13:51

Oh @Tink2019 I really hope everything is okay x

Tink2019 · 16/08/2020 15:34

Thank you ladies, knowing there were women I could message was a big help (guess it's because in these situs you just want a woman, mum or best friend etc, to talk to, but when no one knows you're pregnant that's tricky). I'm now home - have to call the EPU at 9am tomorrow once my bloods are back re. a scan. Such a horrible feeling not knowing and having to wait...TTC and pregnancy just seems to be one endless waiting game x

hollywhooo · 16/08/2020 16:24

Thinking of you @Tink2019 i really hope everything is okay xxx

restingbface · 16/08/2020 17:02

@duckii this will be our 7th month of trying, how about you? @Tink2019 really sorry to hear this, thinking of you x

SarahTTC2020 · 16/08/2020 17:53

Oh no @Tink2019 I really hope it's not and that you're ok. Fainting is so horrible especially if you're on your own xx

xoJellyBean · 16/08/2020 21:35

@Tink2019 hope you're ok❤️❤️

@restingbface welcome!! We are similar CD too! Here's to this new month 🤩

@duckii im so confused as to when to start the soy, my af came on yesterday full flow lol no spotting this month so can I count yesterday as CD1 and start taking soy tomorrow on CD3??

@Tink2019 hope you are ok, keeping everything crossed that all is ok for you xx

Elakiya · 16/08/2020 22:45

@Tink2019 keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Hope everything goes well tomorrow. Please do keep us posted.

Pol96 · 17/08/2020 12:52

@Tink2019 think of you today, really hope its good news x

Tink2019 · 17/08/2020 14:27

Hi everyone, thank you so much for your kind words. The EPU called me first thing and asked me to go in ASAP because my HCG was very high...have now been scanned and the sac and yolk are in the right place (so thankfully not ectopic), but we're not quite out of the woods yet - have to go back in 3 weeks to see if they can detect a heartbeat, they couldn't today but apparently that's normal at 5+5, and because high HCG can indicate other things (molar pregnancy for instance). Feeling better, but still a little anxious. The next 3 weeks are going to be very long. My progesterone is very strong they said which is a good sign and could explain the pain I've been getting as high progesterone can cause bloating and constipation - I have both (the bloating is so bad my husband said I need to wear baggy clothes or people will guess...I'm not even 6 weeks 🙈). Just have to keep everything crossed now. Thanks again ladies - hoping you all get BFPs soon and they're a bit smoother than mine! X

Pol96 · 17/08/2020 14:43

Oh @Tink2019 that's so good to hear its not ectopic! I have my fingers crossed that it's not a molar pregnancy for you. And it's definitely too early for a heart beat to be detected so please don't worry about that! The early pregnancy bloat is unreal! I looked more pregnant at 6 weeks than I do now at 17 weeks! Wishing you a happy healthy pregnancy 🤞 xx

Tink2019 · 17/08/2020 14:49

Thank you @Pol96, I'm so praying it's not molar too (we keep calling it moley because the picture on femometer app genuinely looks like a mole...doesn't seem quite as endearing now though). Will let you all know how we get on in 3 weeks. Who knew that high levels of HSG could be just as bad as low levels x

Pol96 · 17/08/2020 14:53

@Tink2019 pregnancy is honestly one worry after another.. Ttc is awful and then you're so happy you're pregnant and then spend the whole time worrying! Definitely keep us updated x

Tink2019 · 17/08/2020 14:59

@Pol96 The things we have to go through! I will definitely update you all. Hope you're feeling good, you must be pleased it's not still 1million degrees x

Pol96 · 17/08/2020 15:07

@Tink2019 right!? It'll be worth it all in the end though! I'm so glad the temperatures dropped 😂 I was going for walks at 10pm and it was still to warm! Only off work for a couple more weeks then starting back when I'm exactly 20 weeks.. I'm going to be exhausted! Counting down the days for my next scan (it's on Saturday) and then nhs scan on the 8th.. Can't wait to see the baby again, definitely makes all the temping, opks and supplements seem worth it!
