@SmileyT the Lake District we are going with my sister, bro in law and nieces. Cornwall is just us two, but my mum might join us for a night or two. I'd like to book something for just us too, so I might do another one x

@calimommy and @SmileyT
At the time that happened what supplements or medication were you taking

@MichT4 haha don't worry mine was abit dodge too. Oh no that's a shame, yeah get them to share it.

👀 It is Friday night... Xx

@VP91x haha no battered sausage when I'm so exhausted 😂 might call up the GP on Monday and see if they'll release my actual records rather than just medication, all it's told me is that I get tonsillitis a lot 🙈 I feel like it's all I say but I'm planning on doing nothing apart from maybe brunch with a friend on Sunday. What have you got planned? x

@DBTJ I'd found out I was pregnant 4 days before so was on absolutely nothing, apart 3 days worth of folic acid x

@MichT4 ahh I'm going to look to book one this weekend, I need things to have in the diary to look forward to, although I am trying not to use any holiday this year might navigate a few lieu days for 'extra hours I've worked' 😂 get the Chinese, it's great and Friday night, why not? x

@DBTJ nothing at the time, just regular prenatal vits. It was my third pregnancy, I had had one baby and one 9week loss at that point. Started spotting around 7 weeks but baby was still growing well. Bleeding got heavier and eventually the pregnancy was lost at nearly 11 weeks. But not everyone has a bad outcome x
My next pregnancy (the 4th one) I was put on progesterone and aspirin and that went fine 👍

@calimommy Wow congrats! xx

@SmileyT @VP91x you bad influences you! I might float the idea, not that I need to convince OH to get Chinese!

The good thing with them @SmileyT is that if you pick one not too far, or you don't mind, you could go Friday and come back Sunday. That's what we do, then it's one day max. Sometimes just half day or you could go in the evening - still 2 nights and days away.

Brunch sounds lovely. I need more brunches in my life xx

Thanks all that have posted kind comments - sending hugs back to you all! 😘
Sometimes I think I just need to acknowledge this is utterly shit! I try so hard to be positive but it gets on top of me sometimes. Love to you all xxx

@2020wish I completely forgot I wanted to ask you if you’re still on the aspirin? If so when did you start taking it? X

@calimommy omg congratulations! What a lovely surprise for you! Wishing you the best health for the next 9 months!

@vp91x @micht4 @smileyT I'm travelling back into London after spending a weekend with family and away from OH and all I can think about is Chinese and battered sausage on the train. The kind of sausage is up for debate 🤣

@vp91x sounds like you've done lots of research and are well equipped for Monday!
I had no idea about this app, will try it when I'm home, even if just to check my notes don't have "bat shit crazy" as a heading 🤪

@Rainbowhope11 sorry if I missed it but where did you get the pregnitude from? I'll look into it to help my cycle if nothing shows for me soon

@micht4 thanks so much for sharing the uk breaks site. I've always talked about doing this with OH and now is the perfect time to try. I've always had a holiday or something booked to look forward to but Covid took care of that and you're right. The mc was so much worse happening during lockdown with no distractions xx

@MrsK21 ooh lovely, where have you been? I'm sure I know what sausage you're thinking about if you've had some time away from OH 🍆😂

I'm pretty sure that's why I can't see my records, all the notes I shouldn't see 😳

I hope you find a nice break away xx

@MichT4 it was actually a fluke month. We only DTD once in what I guess was the fertile week. Thinking about all those times we ploughed away trying so hard...TTC sex is pretty soulless at times 😂 And I had gotten fed up with the whole thing. Only thing I did differently was taking EPM as well as the Agnus Castus. But I never know if these things help or if it's just a coincidence. This is pregnancy 7# for me. So far I have a 50/50 track record... will just try to be zen as there's nothing I can do now anyway. 🤞

@Diorissimo1985 I started taking it about 3dpo to help build up uterus lining prior to implantation. R u taking itV

@calimommy exactly, best to be relaxed for sure. I really hope this is a sticky one for you xx

@calimommy amazing news congratulations 🥳

@calimommy congrats xxxxx

Evening ladies just caught up on last two pages so hopefully I’ve got this right,

@Runnergirl1 so sorry this is so dragged out for you. My sac took about 5 days to come out and I’d had a scan and hospital told me I’d ‘passed the worst of it’. I’ve found the pain got worse for me so make sure you have pain killers, not to scare you might be fine but I needed co-codamol as ibu with paras wasn’t helping, hot water bottles too. Think I was literally contracting. How far gone did you get? I was 8 weeks. I hope it passes quickly for you. We buried our sac. I thought the baby was inside somewhere but I couldn’t see it. I guess it all deteriorates 😔 It helped me to give the baby a burial though.

@Jazper that’s really good to know about your heavier flow with the Pom juice. Thanks for that.

@SmileyT yes I will test with opk again in morning and see what’s occurring.

@calimommy wowweeeeee many congratulations 🥳 wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months 🥰

@VP91x I’m glad you’re doing better and sounds like you have learnt lots in a short space of time. Like everyone else says you are well prepared for Monday.

@Diorissimo1985 sorry to hear you’re struggling. It is bloody horrible. I’ve been trying for 5 years with no success until lockdown and then mc so I know the pain and frustration all too well. You are not alone with us lot 💕

Sorry if I’ve missed anyone I can’t go back to previous page or I lose what I’ve typed 🙈

@Stayinghopeful92x AF arrived for me today 8 days late ... no idea why . So strange never happened before . I've been to acupuncture today and going next Thursday hopefully some treatment will help make sure my cycles regulate back to normal 🤞 gonna try throw everything at it this cycle and give everything a go supplements etc . I kinda gave up this last month thinking relaxing may hell but obvs hasnt 🙄 my due date would have been sept so would be nice to fall before this 😓😓 but losing hope .... although this is something I also need to work on this month. Thinking positive and that it will happen xx

@calimommy have you ever gotten pregnant by trying lots?

My one and only pregnancy was from just two consecutive nights of passion during lockdown lol. I knew I was mid cycle so in my head we was trying but I hadn’t tested. And it wasn’t just like quickies to get it done. But now I’m potentially ovulating we want to get lots in but I hope I’m not putting too much pressure on it. I don’t feel stressed about it though but I’m just keen and determined to get lots up there to give us the best chance as I hear fertility can be higher after mc? And this is straight after mc for me not even a period after yet.

I worry that quickies where I haven’t climaxed reduces our chances of success. Does that sound mad lol. I’m sure I read once that it helps 🙈

@Pugprincess - is that after other things. I thought I passed it all on Wednesday but that must have been everything put the sac. Wednesday was tough as I too contracted as I lost something but guess I have to go through it all again for this part. They have given me codine for the pain if it gets to that point again. Not looking forward to going through all that again but I guess I’m going to have to. Thanks for the heads up. I should have been 11weeks on Wednesday just gone. But i believe it didn’t make it past 6 weeks x

@Runnergirl1 aww bless you, mine was measuring 6 weeks too, seems like a common time for them to go wrong. I passed mostly blood and clots. By night 4 I passed something that looked like placenta too me. Then the next morning I went for a wee and something plopped in toilet so I got it out and showed my mum and called a friend and sent her pics and they all agreed it was the sac. It was kind of long and meaty. I don’t know if you can send things directly to one person on this site, I have a photo of mine but you might not want to see it anyway. My DH was at work when I passed it and luckily the night before I read to put it in water if you want to preserve it for any reason. I put it in water in a Tupperware tub and put in fridge till husband finished work. I wanted him to have a chance to say bye before it looked any worse. Sorry this probably all sounds crazy but it just felt right for me and helped me to get through it. Pain wise I had bad pain every day until I passed the baby, it lasted a good 5-6 hours then would settle down and then returned. I think hospital should have warned me really but I think they thought it had left me. Don’t know why they didn’t see on scan x

@calimommy oh my goodness!!! This is brilliant!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 congratulations!!

@MrsK21 I'm in the US so I get it on Amazon here or CVS. In the UK it's called Inofolic and you can get it on Amazon too and not sure where else. I'm like full on bleeding now after 70 something days, and it's very satisfying haha 😂🤣

@VP91x @MichT4 😂😂😂al try anything at this point oh has joked to give me a good banging on the bottom like a sauce bottle to get it to come cant hurt to try 😂.

@Renna oh sorry af arrived for u..oh lovely i have heard that can be relaxing for ur body sorry to hear its getting u down i know the feeling sometimes its just to much but hey!! we are bad ass bitches here that have already been through so much we pick ourself back up and get back on that ttc bus best of luck to u hun ❤xxx

@calimommy huge congratulations love wishing u a happy healthy sticky bean 💗.

Hi Everyone I was hoping I could join? I have been trying to conceive since February. I have PCOS so am taking meds to make me ovulate. These were OPKs (One step) from yesterday (I am very new to these- as well as ovulating!) are these positive? The lines aren’t as dark today. I took them at different points yesterday. It so nice to read I am not alone in this x
