Hope I've tagged everyone xx

@Firevie I am in the same position as you and am in my tww after a mmc - I haven't had af yet either. Really hope we both get bfps 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Northernsoul90 · 02/08/2020 11:52

@2020wish How awful, what is wrong with people?! Glad you sorted it with OH, don't feel bad you weren't to know all the details xx

2020wish · 02/08/2020 11:55

@Northernsoul90 thank you. I know he’s actually laughing at me now cause he says he couldn’t understand why I was going mental at him but now it makes sense to him because we had our wires completely crossed... again another example that communication is key Confused

MrsK21 · 02/08/2020 12:00

@Northernsoul90 I'll just be so happy to get my AF after this wait. We didn't really TTC tbh because this past week I've had all my appointments etc and it was a bit overwhelming for me.

@2020wish I totally get how you feel with your OH, mine is the same always helping others and rushing off to be a good friend and citizen. I find myself getting annoyed too but then tell myself I'd rather have a DP who's so thoughtful and helpful to his family and friends then didn't care about others at all. I'm sure once you have a chat with him he'll make sure to make time for you too ☺️ x

Pugprincess · 02/08/2020 12:02

@2020wish glad you got it sorted 🙂

Sorry guys I feel so depressed today it’s unreal. I can’t get my head into anything. DH noticing and keeps asking what’s up too and I’m like you know what x

2020wish · 02/08/2020 12:28

@Pugprincess sorry ur feeling that way. I’m hoping it’s done hormones tho increasing for u and causing ur emotions to go off.. that was an early symptom for me.

@smileyt how did the scan go?

Pugprincess · 02/08/2020 12:32

I’m wondering about you @smileyt too

@2020wish thanks, I’ve had a cry earlier and still feel weepy and crap. X

SmileyT · 02/08/2020 12:34

Thanks for all of your positive thoughts ladies, I'm back from the scan place and saw a little flicker of a HB on the screen and she confirmed I am measuring 7w1 ❤️

@2020wish glad you sorted things with OH and I'm so sorry to hear what happened to your friends so unpleasant x

2020wish · 02/08/2020 12:35

@Pugprincess I cried for two days straight before I got my proper BFP. And I cried yesterday passing 3 people with their gay pride 🏳️‍🌈 flags and beeped at them. Hormones are Waco but point is although you feel so down it could be a good sign. I hope so anyway. I’m literally crossing every thing for everyone on this thread!! Do something nice for urself today x

2020wish · 02/08/2020 12:36

@SmileyT aww that has made my day!!! Amazing news!!! Right go and have a treat day and celebrate!!!

Dipsy77 · 02/08/2020 12:40

Brilliant news @SmileyT xx

Firevie · 02/08/2020 12:41

@Northernsoul90 yay tww buddy - hope we do both get BFPs. How many DPO are you? I’m 1dpo lol.
@Rebecca1992 aww thank you! Hope you have a healthy pregnancy after your loss! Thanks!
@2020wish glad you guys communicated and sorted it out! Def communication is key. DH and I also had our wires crossed on Friday and only realised yesterday that we had gotten each other completely wrong xx

Pugprincess · 02/08/2020 12:55

Yayyyyy @SmileyT ❤️❤️❤️ So relieved!!!! I bet you are? X

Rebecca1992 · 02/08/2020 13:01

@Firevie Thank you, hoping you get your BFP really soon! Stay positive ❤

@SmileyT Great news! Hopefully you can relax a little now and start to enjoy your pregnancy x

DBTJ · 02/08/2020 13:15

@VP91x thank you

@Pugprincess I can see a line gd luck dont stress

Pugprincess · 02/08/2020 13:24

@DBTJ thank you 🙏🏻

chloedancer897 · 02/08/2020 13:31

@SmileyT yay! I'm so glad! Please don't compare this pregnancy to previous ones and try to get the negative thoughts out of your head. I think the first trimester will be awful for all of us (if I ever get there...) I'm so glad everything is ok x

MichT4 · 02/08/2020 13:33

@SmileyT I'm so happy you saw the HB. Hopefully you can relax now, and maybe think about taking the Fitbit off?

@MrsK21 hooray for ovulation! Glad you are in your TWW. I'm the same as you - temp stayed the same for me but elevated still. I'm just worried I'll get another dip. Here is is xx

chloedancer897 · 02/08/2020 13:34

@Pugprincess I think early testing destroyed me last month as well as symptom spotting. I had every symptom possible. I was totally convinced. Take a break from testing for a few days and try and focus on different things if you can (I know it's easier said than done). I've purposely booked things every week to do so I have something on the calendar. We went camping, hairdressers, we are on our way to visit my family in Scotland, it ticks some day's off the TWW. I actually had to check Fertility Friend app today to see how many DPO I was because I hadn't been checking. I feel much more relaxed this month x

VP91x · 02/08/2020 13:34

@SmileyT ah that's brilliant news, feel like I've relaxed too after seeing your update! Glad little bean is all cosy and I hope you have a nice treat planned for today❤️

@Lollol86 potentially could be ovulating today across to tomorrow if you're still getting peaks. If you can do one when you get back that will be hopefully back down to low.

@MrsK21 I'm doing okay lovely! Just going through this cycle, seeing what happens. How are you feeling? Looks like you might have from that rise which is good!! Completely understandable that you didn't feel up to trying, but hopefully AF turns up soon. You've got your follow up on Thursday too haven't you?xx

@Hayley19835 how are you getting on? X

@2020wish glad all is sorted now and you can spend some time together x

@Pugprincess don't feel down, honestly I'm hopeful for you this month plus you're so early in your testing. You just have to trust the process and wait it out for a few more days to see a reliable answer. I know how annoying it is to be wishing the time away xx

VP91x · 02/08/2020 13:36

@MichT4 most likely you will get a dip which isn't a bad thing I read its a second estrogen surge which is good but then it goes back up Xx

Just an update from me. I am 13DPO and did a first response after my night shift this morning and got a bfn after that little shadow of a line on a cheapie. AF is due tomorrow. I still have sore boobs, thick white cm, but not much else. I cried like a baby in the shower but have come round a bit to the idea I’m out this month and I don’t think I’m going to do any opks this month. I may just dtd when we do it and see what happens. Try and relax. I defos felt stressed this month with my friend being pregnant and having to listen to lots of baby chat. This heartbreak is so awful! 😭 but hoping to feel a bit more positive soon ready for a new month. Hope everyone’s well and upbeat! Defos need some BFP in the group! Xxx

fafi · 02/08/2020 14:11

@Firevie I am exactly the same as @Rebecca1992 - 6+2 and straight after a MC! 💞

@Pugprincess don't look too hard at HCG tests that have dried out as they can be evaporation lines. I would wait until your AF due date to.test again. I know it's hard but I waited this time and it was ultimately less stressful and meant I was further along when I got my BFP which made the early days better for me!

fafi · 02/08/2020 14:17

@SmileyT I am SO pleased! Congratulations on the heartbeat, so exciting! I hope you can relax and enjoy thing a bit more again ☺️

@Rb486 I'm really sorry to hear that love. Xx

@2020wish I would have felt exactly the same, my husband is a saint too, sounds like you have a good one and I'm glad he's home with you now x

Firevie · 02/08/2020 14:20

@SmileyT aww so pleased for you! Hope it all continues to go well!
@fafi omg that is amazing news! Wishing you a healthy pregnancy!
@2020wish you will relate to this! I just got my hair done - OMG amazing feeling. Went to couple of shops to get some stuff for my parents as I’m finally flying home next weekend to see them so getting them some of their favourites. Told DH to go Tesco and do our weekly shop whilst I’m doing all the other stuff. On my way home now and get a call fro DH saying his close friend called who has been going through a shit relationship for the past two years. So he is going to go there. I’m so annoyed and not because he’s going for moral support but because we have seen this guy unable to make a decision for the past two years. It’s gotten to a point where this guy doesn’t take anyone’s advice, calls upon his friends when there’s drama but then does whatever he wants to do anyway ie continue with the drama! So I’m pissed off now at DH for wasting yet another day when we all know he won’t take a decision and it will be another day of drama but additionally I’m annoyed bacaue here I am shielding myself from everyone and everything.m because I don’t want to risk carrying anything home to my parents next week. And there he is just going seeing friends willy nilly! He is bit more relaxed because he had the virus at the start of lockdown so four months ago and says he has antibodies now but I’m still pissed off - there must be something in the air with these men! Xxx
