Also brown spaghetti and brown rice is nicer than the white. I thought I would hate them. Whole grain has zinc which helps reduce miscarriage I read. Spaghetti I can’t taste any difference. Rice is chunkier and takes longer to cook but still tasty. Texture reminds me of risotto. X

@pugprincess I've bought my pomegranate juice from Morrisons and Sainsbury's in the chilled juice section. Don't get pomegreat it's from concentrate. The POM one is pricey but best.

2020wish · 21/07/2020 08:39

@Jodiem1990 welcome to the thread! And congrats!! I’m the same... I’m pregnant again only 4weeks 1 day. AF due on Friday. I’m so scared 😦

@Northernsoul90 yay for fertile week!! Happy DTD!!

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 08:41

@fafi ah thank you. You know what I didn’t even check the fridges I headed straight to normal shelves 🙈 maybe co op do it still. Morrison’s is nearer for me so thanks for that tip. Morrison’s do they POM brand too?

2020wish · 21/07/2020 08:41

@Pugprincess lovely meal! I might start juicing again. I was even considering starting slimming world for pregnancy. My bmi is 33. And I’m so hungry now and with my daughter I got so big! So don’t want thy happening again

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 08:46

@2020wish thanks! Honestly it’s the best I’ve ever eaten. I checked my bmi last night and I’m just tipping into overweight by one measly pound!!! But tbf it would be better to be way into normal range rather than right on the edge of overweight. It all will help fertility I think. I feel slimmer already so I’m assuming baby weight is shifting, I was having major chin rub between thighs if wearing shorts lol, that’s eased. Stomachs losing its bloat too. Didn’t set out to lose weight with diet but if I do then happy days as I will feel better and be healthier too. I’ve also given up alcohol too. Don’t think I’ve drank for 3-4 months now. X

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 08:47

Oh aldi do these frozen smoothie fruits packs. I have a banana and strawberry one. A tropical fruits one and a veggie type one. You bung 80g in blender (I do 100g) and 100ml of juice or water, blend and drink, easy peasy xx

MichT4 · 21/07/2020 08:49

@Northernsoul90 wahoo for your flashy. I hope it turns to peak really soon x

VP91x · 21/07/2020 08:51

@Northernsoul90 eep, I'm trying to control my hopefulness. Let's see 🙏.

Got everything crossed for you, that those smug bastards go static quickly. Will you start DTD from today? Xx

@2020wish runs to google haha, yeah there is a risk with soy iso to release multiple eggs actually forgot about that.

@Pugprincess all your meals look great, sounds like doing great with your healthy eating. Yeah it is expensive, I stocked up a bit when it was on offer for £3. You need a small glass everyday so you should maybe get four days out of a bottle?xx

Northernsoul90 · 21/07/2020 09:00

@Pugprincess Yes definitely hope!! I had a circle yesterday and the flashy this morning so hopefully I will get a static soon 😊🤞🏼 your food looks great, I need to stop eating rubbish I've just lost all motivation since feeling really sick with pregnancy and then the mc

Thank you @2020wish @MichT4 @VP91x 😊 yes start dtd today I won't tell DH about the flashies though I don't think in case I get loads of them!

VP91x · 21/07/2020 09:03

@Northernsoul90 haha yeah, best to keep it to yourself in case it's a few days etc! Fingers crossed for you ❤️

Just did an easy at home test to see cause the whole they don’t have the evap lines and being clearer. STILL a second line. Day 13 of cycle today. Can’t see me ovulating tomorrow like normal with this going on. By Thursday I will have to ring the EPAU 😔 hopefully they won’t be concerned and just say it will reduce on its own. I think for me it was only a week yesterday since I passed the baby out so maybe that’s why it’s taken longer? So frustrating!!

Bit clearer here I think

Northernsoul90 · 21/07/2020 09:16

@Pugprincess Yes try not to worry too much it's probably just the last tiny bit of hormone picking up, I only got a negative test yesterday 6 weeks after my mc and even then I could see the tiniest hint of a line (looked like an evap line) but it was on a sensitive test so I've just taken it as a negative I had enough of testing and trying to decipher the lines. Fingers crossed for you that it reaches negative soon 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 09:21

@Northernsoul90 thank you, did you have a natural mc or operation? Mine was natural so just concerned whether everything’s out. I defo think I passed placenta and sac though x

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 09:28

Done a different cheap one to match my others and it’s at the top. Bottom is a week ago. Why does the top one look stronger than the last few days?!

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 09:48

Right I’ve found this and I’m driving myself mad now. DTD sat night, what if I somehow conceived and fertilised an egg and my brains getting signals to start hcg so that’s adding onto what I already had left and making my line darker?!

Lollol86 · 21/07/2020 09:52

@Pugprincess that's a different test isn't it?

@Northernsoul90 yes girl, go get the 🍆💦. We are all rooting for you xx

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 09:54

@Lollol86 yes the pink one is but the top blue one is this morn too, why is it darker than the previous two mornings below it 🤔

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 09:55

I have a second line on pink too

Lollol86 · 21/07/2020 09:58

@Pugprincess have you done them all at the same time of day, before drinking anything?

Northernsoul90 · 21/07/2020 10:00

@Pugprincess I had an mva procedure, I was still getting strong positives 3 weeks after so had to go back to EPU to have a scan, luckily she couldn't see any retained tissue. I had my bloods taken as well they were at 102 and then the following week had dropped to 34, that was 2 weeks ago now. I think it's probably just your wee might be diluted more or less on the tests and also I did two cheap opks this morning (same urine sample and brand of test) and one test came up quite a bit darker than the other so there is some variability with them. Maybe just do one test using fmu per day over the next few days and see what happens? I would stick to the same brand as well. If you can still see a positive after the 2 week mark give EPU a call? Xxx

@Lollol86 Thank you!! 😘 how are you? Xx

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 10:01

Yes last 5 from top are first morning wee straight out of bed. @Lollol86
Bottom couple were afternoon ones not long after mc xx

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 10:03

@Northernsoul90 yes that’s the plan, il try not to drive myself insane as I know it’s unlikely x

Northernsoul90 · 21/07/2020 10:07

@Pugprincess Hopefully EPU would take your bloods and then repeat so if levels were rising it would show, you never know? Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 otherwise it will probably just be the hcg is taking a little longer to leave your system xx
