Update on me CD12 - in FW waiting on ovulation. On Soy Iso this month and doing a (reduced) SMEP approach. 🥰

Anyone else would like to join please do xx

@VP91x hope you're doing okay lovely ❤️😘 I've been so swamped with work I haven't had a chance to catch up with the thread and now we're onto a new one🙈 love Coco and Milo! So cute!

Thanks for new thread @VP91x. Hope you are ok. Your bunnies are so cute! X

@VP91x hope you are feeling okay this morning and have a nice chilled Saturday with your lovely family and the new additions xx

@Bellabubble Ned and Rolo look like mischievous little things 🥰🥰

Good luck to those testing this morning 🤞 🤞

I caved and bought some digital tests On a same day delivery yesterday. Dd woke me up at 3am for a feed so did one then and I got 2-3 weeks. I'll do one more same time next week and then hopefully the urge to poas won't be as strong, im not buying anymore tests so I'll have to find something else to pee on xx

@Dipsy77 I've got 3 unopened twin packets in my bathroom drawer they are definitely getting used 😂 have you done your referral yet? I can't decide if I'll be happy going back to the same hospital 🤔 x

@SmileyT thank you lovely ❤️ - how comes you're up so early!? I will have to give maleficent a watch for sure. We have already been out playing with the furries this morning. Got a feeling we will be out there alot today. What are you up to today? How are you feeling? Xx

@MichT4 how are you this morning? X

@Bellabubble omg they are sooo cute 😍 what are the guineas like as pets? Our bunnies are so calm and cuddly. They don't mind being held at all which is sweet. One stayed on my chest for ages whilst I watched tv last night. Our cat paid absolutely no attention to the rabbits she just wandered past 😂. We have our dog coming mid august too - clearly we are building a collection.

@Rainbowhope11 thank you so much ❤️ how are you feeling? You must be at least 4dpo now right?

@Dipsy77 sounds like some great progression🥰🥰

@SmileyT did you go to NM? X

@SmileyT I have to contact gp who will make midwife app for me I'm going to do it at 6 weeks. Last time I went at 7 weeks and had my booking in appointment day after MMC. I don't want an early reassurance scan at epu it will bring it all back I'm hoping I can ride it out till the 12 week scan. I had a scan at 7 weeks at epu due to reduced symptoms and all was fine and I saw a heartbeat but then 2 weeks later different story.
I'm classed as high risk due to my age so will be under a consultant and I will get monitored closer plus growth scans if everything progresses ok xx

@VP91x I woke up at 3am 😴 laid in bed for like an hour but couldn't sleep so peed on a FRER and then came and watched new girl. I'll definitely nap later 😂 ahh love that you've been out already, I'm so tempted to get an animal, I've never had one and feel like I want something to cuddle. And yeah went to NM after the MC and for surgery so not sure I want to go back - it is less than a mile from home but also my friends mum worked there for 10years and told her that the mat department wasn't the best so I dunno 🤷🏾‍♀️

@Dipsy77 yeah I had a scan at 6 and 7weeks and saw the HB last time and pregnancy stopped at 7w4 and didn't find out until after 9w so feel like I want to get scans every week 🙈 my booking appt last time was scheduled for 10w and they did get everything cancelled for me when I went in for the MMC at least. Ahh I dunno what's best x

@MichT4 how are you this morning?

@SmileyT I've heard mixed but since the new mat dept was done apparently it got better. In general though NM gets so busy doesn't it, would you consider travelling to another? Ahh definitely get an animal, a cat or something is quite low maintenance but cute 😍xx

I’m ok @VP91x @SmileyT thank you.

I woke up and the spotting is still there so I think my body might be preparing me for some news. I think I’m ready for it anyway, just still rubbish seeing it all the time.

@smileyT I assume it was a nice bold positive this morning?

How are you both? xx

Morning all , how is everyone today?

I'm 9dpo today, I usually test between 10-12dpo but I don't think I'm gonna bother this month. I have hardly any symptoms other than very mild cramps which I think is just AF coming. AF is due Friday. Usually I symptom stop all the time during my TWW but I've not needed to this month because there's been nothing to spot.... unless that's the symptom 🤔 ! Who knows, only time will tell. 🤞

@VP91x I'm doing alright lovely, how are you doing today? How are the new fur babies? I honestly don't know what cd I'm on anymore🙈 I had some pink cm on Sunday, which I thought could be ovulation bleeding. Ive has a gradual rise in bbt over a couple of days, but now when I'm looking at my chart I think I may have ovulated earlier than I thought. I'm not sure though because it's hard to tell without a sharp bbt rise. And then this morning I've had a massive drop in temp and I've had some weird brown spotting when I wiped. I'm just waiting to see what my temp looks like tomorrow morning and whether the brown spotting turns into a full blown AF at some point. I'm okay with that too as I haven't had AF since May!

Morning everyone. I did a test this morning and can see just a very faint line which if I was wondering if I was pregnant I would be questioning if it was positive or not. Hoping that by Monday this will have disappeared the tests are fairly sensitive (10miu) so fingers crossed the last of the hormones are leaving.

You never know @Baba458 ... wait u til af day and if she doesn't appear then test maybe? Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

@MichT4 that is so frustrating that spotting won't go away. Are you getting any cramping or anything? It looks like the weather will be lovely so hopefully you can get out to the coast.

I'm doing okay 🥰 xx

@Baba458 don't lose hope, alot of the time you ser that noone feels much different to how they would normally before AF everything is much the same until later on in pregnancy so no reason to not stay positive unless ofc AF arrives xx

@Rainbowhope11 could be IB if it is this many days post potential ovulation and the dip in BBT is hormonal which also be a good sign? Fingers crossed for you, but I know you'll be relieved if AF shows up sooner rather than later if it isn't your month. 🥰 I'm good, fur babies are fabulous. Had them hopping around the front room this morning, so cute. Xx

@Northernsoul90 oh I'm glad they are going down more quickly now for you, that must be a relief. X

@Northernsoul90 that's my thought exactly 👌 I really hope your hormones settle down next week so you can start trying again xx

@VP91x yes I'm trying to stay positive, I think I just gave up hope at the start of this month, I need to change my mindset so I'm in the right frame of mind ready for my next cycle xx

@VP91x no cramping or pain at all. I just think it’s got to be happening again. I’ve had the occasional day when the spotting has stopped and I managed to feel like it could be ok, but I just needed it to not be there this morning to have more hope for tomorrow.
It is a beautiful day which helps, can’t stop bloody thinking about it though.

How are your little furry fluff balls? xx

@Northernsoul90 that’s great that the lines are getting lighter. Hopefully won’t be long now until you have a clean slate x

Kept refreshing the old thread without realising we'd moved on to a new one! Hope all of you lovely girls have a brilliant weekend. @DBTJ I see a line, how exciting and i hope its just the start of good news for you ❤
@MichT4 really hope you've seen the last of that spotting and that you get a lovely rise in hcg in your next test. It's impossible not to worry i know.. We all fully understand. I had a day of cramping and heaviness around 6w and i couldn't be positive or happy for over a week afterwards. Loss has turned me into a negative Nancy for sure!
@VP91x your bunnies!! How cute, love them.

Hi everyone! Not sure if I’m right to join yet or if I am jumping the gun. We fell pregnant without trying in May but it as confirmed last week/this week that I’ve suffered a MMC. At 12w Scan, baby only measured 6w. I have been bleeding for a week now and have my ERPC scheduled for Tuesday. Needless to say it is 💔 This would have been our first baby so we are heartbroken. I am scared about the surgery as well as I’ve been lucky enough to never have had surgery or GA. But I feel the only way I can move on is by focusing on next steps so there I am waiting until I can start TTC again. I know they say wait for at least one period so I’m hoping I will have my first period after the surgery very quickly so I can start again. I should mention I am 36 and have long cycles. I came off the pill last year in May. Weirdly enough my cycles were fine 30-35 days but I missed a period in December and this year in March. My cycle between Feb and April was the longes (52days) but even so I managed to conceive and get pregnant straight away so I guess that gives me hope. I should also mention I started a new job in November and the first couple of months of that job were super stressful - 16hour days, coming home at 4am, sleeping 4hours, not eating well etc so I put the Dec and March lack of period down to that. Apologies for the really long post but I thought it best to give my whole background. Oh and I’ve only just found out that acupuncture and reflexology can help with irregular cycles so post surgery and as soon as it is safe I am looking into that. Thank you ladies for posting all your experiences on here which have been incredibly useful in this difficult time.

I am so sorry for your recent loss @Firevie it is truly heartbreaking and such a difficult time. You are definitely in the right place here - I am still waiting for my cycles to come back post mc but everyone here is so friendly and provide lots of advice and support so I still post even though I'm not yet actively ttc as such.

I don't have ERPC experience to share with you, I had an MVA under local, but when I was in hospital I was well looked after and all the staff were lovely so hopefully you will have a similar experience. I know some of the ladies on here have had ERPC, I'm sure they will give you some reassurance. Take plenty of time to rest and look after yourself ❤️

@Northernsoul90 many thanks for welcoming me and your kind words. So sorry for your loss. It is so hard isn’t it but I’m beginning to think that if anyone can go through it then it is us women! I hope and pray the ERPC will be fine - I’m getting this done via my private health insurance and with the same doctor that my friend had to use sadly earlier this year. He seems confident and has done loads of these. I am just nervous because I’ve never been under GA and had a surgery. And I’m already stressing about when I will get my first period after the surgery. How long has it been since your MVA? They say it takes about 4-6 weeks maybe bit longer for me as I have irregular cycles but hopefully not.... xx

@Firevie I had the mva on the 8th June and am still getting very faint positives on pregnancy tests which is really frustrating. I have been back to EPU a few times for bloods and to check for retained tissue which thankfully there wasn't. I was told when I get a negative test I should get my period 4/5 weeks after that so still quite a wait for me yet unfortunately although I have decided I am going to start ttc once I get my negative test. I think they advise to wait for your first period for dating reasons unless there is a specific medical reason that you have been told about so I'm just going to go for it and start tracking ovulation once I've got a negative. Fingers crossed that the hormones leave your system faster than they have mine 🤞🏼 I think everyone is different in that respect xx
