@MrsK21 that's great news that you have some answers. Fx af shows up ASAP xx

DBTJ · 06/08/2020 14:45

Hey has anyone tried anti sickness bands before, I tried the pressure points using my hands and I felt relieved although not sure if that's all in my head.Hmm

1990EM · 06/08/2020 14:51

@2020wish sooo happy to come on here and see that lovely little scan. Delighted for you! Hoping August will be a good month for us all xx

Northernsoul90 · 06/08/2020 15:15

Right sorry for the false alarm 😂 I'm not sure about af now I had the slight brown spotting when I wiped earlier and then nothing since. This had led me to be even more concerned about the Ashermans syndrome thing 🥴. I think if nothing else happens today I'm going to just do a test in the morning what do you think?

Thank you for all your lovely kind words by the way 🥰 this group is so supportive

Northernsoul90 · 06/08/2020 15:18

@MrsK21 So glad you have some answers now! Fingers crossed the Provera works for you lovely 😘😘 I know waiting a bit longer is rubbish but things are in motion now xx

Firevie · 06/08/2020 15:39

@MrsK21 I am sure he won’t mind 🤣🤣
@Northernsoul90 ooh exciting!!! Yes perhaps Test tmr or if you can wait another day or so perhaps wait?! It’s so hard though isn’t it. I’m gonna test 13dpo in any case because of the wedding which is a welcome excuse haha

Also how hot is it today? Proper sticky! Can’t wait to go for my run but work is being ugh today. Do you know the feeling when you’re just stuck and doubt yourself and can’t get motivated to do anything....that’s a sign of need for a holiday so I have decided to def start hols from Monday xxx

Northernsoul90 · 06/08/2020 15:47

@Firevie I know it's just all so confusing - like I say though I do have cramps and had the brown spotting earlier so I'll wait for the rest of the day and if af doesn't properly arrive I'll test in the morning because I will be 14/15dpo then.

The weather is horrible here really overcast but muggy and sticky! It needs to rain and then the sun can come out! X

MrsK21 · 06/08/2020 16:05

@Northernsoul90 testing tomorrow sounds like a good idea and if you're 14/15 DPO it'll give you a clear BFP hopefully! But otherwise maybe give yourself till Monday and call up the GP if still no AF and negative tests. As you can see in my case, it takes a while to get them to do anything useful so it's worth just flagging to your GP so it's on their radar x
And thank you, really hoping this works for me too. I remember one of the ladies on the thread saying they had an allergic reaction to Provera - praying the same doesn't happen to me!!!!

fafi · 06/08/2020 16:27

@MrsK21 That all sounds like good news in a way, in that you know what's going on now and can move forward from it! I think you'll be nothing but relieved when AF arrives as it will be the start of the next chapter. x

@Northernsoul90 Sorry to hear it could be AF but happy to see you positive outlook! As @MichT4 said, I too prefer to you Fertility Friend for tracking temp and everything and if you use Fermometer OPKs that app for the pics and then adding the data to FF! But! After reading your most recent post I'm still holding out for a BFP tomorrow! Either way you seem to be cool with it so that's good x

2020wish · 06/08/2020 16:47

Sorry I haven’t replied much to everyone. Such a busy day! I had the scan them over to pick up our car that was in the crash in June- it’s finally fixed and then to meet my friend for lunch. Was so hard not telling her I’m pregnant and now I’m for dinner with my parents.

Fingers crossed for u all in august!! Thought I’d share again would i used /done to fall pregnant numerous times this year - I used preseed and the fertility cup. Grapefruit juice before ovulation and pom juice after ovulation.
Omega3, coq10, high dose vit d, calc flur, high dose folic, vital dhea, b6 complex, magnesium and seven seas trying for a baby. Tracked ovulation with bbt and opks. This pregnancy tho I took a step back from bbt as it was stressing me out and only used opks when I could feel ovulation pain and I also added in aspirin after ovulation (after consulting with my doctor) and progesterone cream after ovulation that I ordered from eBay. Also made sure my partner was taking all he needed to improve his fertily. Fingers crossed for everyone on this thread for happy healthy pregnancies! U all deserve it and more! Xx

Diorissimo1985 · 06/08/2020 16:56

@2020wish congratulations lovely - so thrilled to see your scan pics! Enjoy it and hope you have a wonderful pregnancy xx

@VP91x @SmileyT hello! I took a few days off mumsnet to de-stress as I was getting fixated on TTC and I was spending way too much time on the conception and health issues boards 🤣 it was getting me really down and stressed.
Feeling more chilled and trying to relax... I am aware I’m on cd12 though 😂 think ovulation happened today or will do tomorrow. How have you been? What cd are you on? Much love xx 😘

Diorissimo1985 · 06/08/2020 16:58

Sorry and @Northernsoul90 too - saw you tagged me too! How are you doing?? Xx

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 17:19

@Northernsoul90 fingers crossed AF stays away, excited for you to test tomorrow 🤞🏼

@Diorissimo1985 nice to see you back and glad a little break has relaxed you. And already hitting tour FW too 🥳

Diorissimo1985 · 06/08/2020 17:39

Hiya @MichT4 how have you been? Where are you in your cycle lovely? Xx

Lollol86 · 06/08/2020 17:42

@DBTJ I had the sickness bands before and I think they did help me xx

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 17:43

Hey @Diorissimo1985. I'm fine thank you, I am home from work and am heading out soon as it's OHs dads 60th but I'm so sleepy 😂 need to wake up!
I am somewhere between 5-7DPO I think. It's first cycle post second MC so I'm hoping I did actually ovulate. I'm hoping with all I have that I'll be lucky and catch first cycle but I'm expecting AF to show her irritating face.
How are you? xx

SmileyT · 06/08/2020 17:47

@Firevie that doctor does sound like a dream, do you know how much it costs to be monitored privately throughout pregnancy? (sorry if that is a rude question, feel free to not answer if it is)

@DBTJ ahh how exciting you get to see your little bean tomorrow ☺️

@fafi are you going with ultrasound direct? I didn't realise they did the cheaper babydate one until after I'd had mine but I've booked that for my next scan in a couple weeks x

@Northernsoul90 I'm in awe of ladies that are patient and can wait until 12weeks, I know a few on here have done it, but for me I just needed that early scan. NHS seem to love internal scans but privately they seem to go abdominal from around 6w I think. Also agree FF is best for temps but hoping you don't need it still ☺️

@MrsK21 glad you got some answers today and hopefully the provera resets your body ready for your BFP next month x

@Diorissimo1985 more relaxed approach definitely seems to give some ladies the edge so I hope it pays off for you, or at least you feel less stressed in the TWW because of it xx

@MichT4 are you done with work now then? 🥳 x

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 17:51

@SmileyT for today, yeah. I am technically working tomorrow but I have a great boss who is happy for me to go and see puppies! I'm actually a bit apprehensive because of my concerns about the breeder. I'm sure she's a brilliant breeder, but I just don't like her lack of communication. Think I need to be brave and bring it up tomorrow.
Then 4 days next week and then holidays!

How are you today? Hope the tube isn't too grotesque for you xx

DBTJ · 06/08/2020 18:08

@Lollol86 I'm so rough I went out and bought them hopefully it helps if not what a waste of money lol

@SmileyT I'm excited and nervous i haven't had any bleeding however hope the subchronic bleed has vanished and this time there is a baby there with a strong heartbeat

Tink20058 · 06/08/2020 18:13

@MichT4 aww what breed puppy are you getting? Xx

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 18:21

Fingers crossed for you @DBTJ. Good luck for tomorrow and look forward to hearing good news of a healthy bean

@Tink20058 we are getting a border collie. I'll attach his pic again 🥰 how are you? xx

Lollol86 · 06/08/2020 18:22

@DBTJ it's so hard isn't it, but just remember it's a really positive sign xx

Diorissimo1985 · 06/08/2020 18:32

@MichT4 I hope AF stays away - fx crossed for you. When do you think you’ll test or will you try to hold out?
I’m good, trying to relax as much as possible and keeping up with my acupuncture, reflexology and yoga. I should be totally zen but I’m still pretty anxious 🤣 xx

Tink20058 · 06/08/2020 18:33

@MichT4 I’m really good seem to have regained some energy now even managed a nice long stroll with him after work ❤️❤️

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 18:44

@Tink20058 aww look at him! He looks so pleased with himself.

@Diorissimo1985 I was planning to hold out and just wait for AF, but I'm off on hol next Friday so I think I'll need to test before I go. It'll be at least 12DPO which id liked to have been later but I just think I need to know before I go. Just don't want to see a bfn 😢
