Update from me CD20, 3DPO (I think) 🥰.. Nothing going on at the moment, will wait impatiently for the next week xx

I've just been reading about people drinking Pom juice for the first 13 days of their cycle? I thought you all drank it after ovulation? Am I getting confused?

@Northernsoul90 it's a great idea and I totally agree. It helped the doctor said I can have tests when next AF arrives as it means I either get a lovely surprise or I have tests. It makes thus month so much easier to relax xx

It really is unfair @Hayley19835. Thank you, hope you are ok too. X

Thank you @Northernsoul90 and @MichT4 🥰. @MichT4 looks like you are all set up on the Pom juice front! X

@VP91x Thank you lovely. Sorry to hear about your spotting. Really hope it is connected to implantation for you. But if you do go for tests hope you can get some answers. X

@Northernsoul90 that's exactly what I've been doing too. Gave myself deadlines to move onto the next stage from, it'd be unbearable the wait otherwise. Hoping you get the static smiley soon though xxx

Thank you so much ladies. It’s nice to have people to talk to. Although my partner is good he deals with things a little differently and I sometimes find it hard to talk in depth with him. So thank you.

That’s what has been the hardest all the waiting around and the ifs and buts. Thankfully my body has decided to complete naturally which was also worrying me. Hopefully my body readjusts and we can just get back to it. I will speak to the hospital on Friday and see what they say. It’s glad this has happened before I go back as they will still scan and see if there is anything left which is abit of reassurance. But like some of you I don’t really want to wait around I just want to get back to ttc as quickly as possible, just hope my body is ready for it x

@Hayley19835 thank you 🥰

@2020wish thank you, how are you feeling xx

@Rainbowhope11 oh no!! Was it just like mixed in with CM or proper spotting? That's so frustrating 😩 xx

@Northernsoul90 that's a great idea to set mini goals, although I hope you ovulate soon ❤️

@Wishingfornumber2 thank you lovely, I hope you are feeling better.

@Runnergirl1 welcome ❤️ I hope. Your scan shows everything is okay and you can make a decision on when you want to TTC again. Xx

@Lollol86 you can drink it pre ovulation too to help thicken your lining before you actually ovulate! Xx

@VP91x ah ok so what does it do after ovulation? Xx

@Lollol86 it apparently just helps hold the semen there like a little semen trap haha. I don't really need lubricant but honestly, I'm trying anything now. I've attached a pic for seed cycling

@Wishingfornumber2 Thanks I'm ok. I've got over myself now...no more tears! x

@chloedancer897 I don't need lube either which is why I kind of wrote that off. I will have another look into it. How are you finding the seed cycle so far? Xx

@VP91x it looked like a proper bleed 😭 bright red blood not even mixed with cm. I initially thought maaaaaybe it's from dtd last night, but I see it's continuing. Every time I go to the loo and wipe, it's bright red. Maybe my half a dose of Provera somehow worked 😂

How are you doing? Is the spotting still going on?

@Runnergirl1 hi 👋🏻 sorry for your loss, I went for a scan at 7 weeks 3 days and was told baby was measuring roughly 6 weeks 4 days and that it should catch up. But sounds like if they measure small early on it can be a bad sign? Some of my friends babies have always measured smaller though, unless it’s that first 12 weeks that’s most crucial. I’m only two weeks after mc tomorrow and I want to try straight away even though the epau said to wait till after period (only gave dates as reason though). We’re DTD every other night and I’m testing for ovulation everyday as I have no idea what will happen when now 😩 my pregnancy tests still have a faint second line.

@VP91x sorry you’re upset today, this is so hard. Don’t give up hope ❤️ I read a good quote earlier ‘Hope is the only thing stronger than fear’

@Rainbowhope11 yeah it isn't always there when I wipe it's kind of just sitting inside (sorry) mixed with CM a bit like EWCM streaked with blood but red if that makes sense.

Maybe it did work then yeah, so annoying to not know. Does your doctor need to monitor you at all?

@Lollol86 same principle I think, just maintaining the lining thickness xx

@Lollol86 I'm actually really liking it. I've cut out caffeine so instead of my morning coffee, I have a smoothie with the seeds in and it really keeps me going. After ovulation, I'm going to add pineapple core into the smoothie for 5 days (read that somewhere). If it doesn't work, at least it's good for you! So there's no harm in it I suppose.

@VP91x thank you xx

@chloedancer897 absolutely no harm, I don't drink coffee but do drink Diet Coke but have limited that to 2 a day so I'm no where near maximum caffeine intake xx

@MichT4 you can't beat pasta 🤤 and I think especially in the first cycle it makes sense to give your body a bit more time as may still be recovering and like you say whatever happens at least you have those tests to get some extra answers or you'll get your BFP x

@VP91x maybe try your Drs again tomorrow for some blood work and say it's affecting your mental health, I just worry that A&E won't be willing to help and don't want you to sit there for ages for them to tell you they won't do anything 😭 really hope it is a good sign though and this is just a distraction until good news on Saturday x

@2020wish I'm not going to do anything intense just remind myself that our bodies don't really need much more food when pregnant, try not to snack and make the majority of my meals balanced so I'm giving my pregnancy everything I can to progress. So less sweets, choc, cake etc that do me no good and see how I get on x

@chloedancer897 I did seed cycling last month (well at least the 2nd half) it can only help can't it x

@SmileyT every little helps!x

@Lollol86 I read somewhere that you should already treat your body like a pregnant body so I stopped drinking when TTC (almost 3 years now), I don't take anti inflammatories which I definitely would take now and again for back pain and period pain, no caffeine etc and just healthy diet and conception vitamins.

Hi all xx been to the zoo today was lovely but had another breakdown this morning. Found out our new build house... which was meant to be ready june had already been delayed to sept due to Covid and now delayed until jan 2021 !!! I just cried so much. beginning of this year I thought I was getting a baby and a house ... now neither.... .and I'm gonna have to apply for 2 mortgage offer extensions as they only do 3 months at a time and its 5% mortgage so just so scared we will loose this house too as I keep hearing 5 % mortgages are less available now after covid..
Also ... I am now 6 days late for AF !? I do not know what is going on and what to figure out what to do... I've never been this late other than when I was pg ..... I got a BFN sunday and monday. Cervix still feels closed and CM is more wet than dry . So I obvs keep getting Hope's up and googling all these scenarios where ladies get late BFPs..... so I have a glimmer of hope ... then I'm like or the alternative is that there is something wrong with me and no AF means I cant carry on TTC ... dont know how much more I can take 😥😥 xxx

Hi ladies new to this and I am an old bird!!!🤦🏻‍♀️ Misscarried twins at 12 weeks had one period since then now weeing in every stick possible
41 years young and worried I have missed the boat 😰😰

@VP91x yup I know what you're talking about, I had that last week!

My doctor didn't even talk to me about the Provera. The nurse called and said that I can take it. She didn't even warn me about any side effects so at this stage I'm not bothered to contact them. I will just wait until my appointment with the fertility doctor.

Hi ladies just catching up again. This thread moves so fast now!!! So sorry if I miss any of your comments!
@Renna oh no that’s such a shame about your house. Are you in a chain/ selling your home? I’m so not sure why your af is late. After mc it can mess with hormones and make things all over the place x

@Kitkatb0808 hello welcome so sorry for your loss. To mc twins must be awful 😢 I’ve heard of people conceiving at your age. Hope you get your good news soon x

So girls following my positive ovulation test on Sunday we dtd that day and sorry tmi but the next day we went to do it and I had worn out my hubby 🤣🤣🤣 that has never happened ever haha. But now I’m reading you are more fertile the day after you get your peak so that day was most important 🙈 oh well we will see. Feeling so impatient this month. Really want my bfp in time for my 5 yr wedding anniversary 😍
Hope you guys are doing well and those with bfp hope you are feeling nice and calm xx
