Update on me - there is no update 😂 CD20, not even a sniff of a positive OPK and no temp rise. Will have bloods done in the next couple of days. Gynae appt on 16th Sept is the plan xx

Evening girls 😊 so hard to keep track of everhthing. Feel like this thread is going really fast!

@MichT4 I can defos see a line on that 😍 and your view looks stunning!! Enjoy your hols. Be waiting for your test tomorrow!

@Pugprincess I think all of your signs and symptoms are heading in the right direction and your spotting seemed to have been a one off. Try and relax and enjoy your pregnancy! So hard not to relate it to your previous experience but you ARE pregnant 🤰 so enjoy every second!

I’m currently 2-3dpo now, so crazy how this cycle is going to go so quickly as it should be a week shorter than the last. I’m currently just going into night shift two of three so there won’t be much from me over the next few days. Roll on Sunday morning 😜 have a lovely weekend everyone!! Xxxx

@Pugprincess you sure will try to switch off I think when I got to just past 6 weeks I tried not to keep checking everything I went toilet and by 7 weeks i was so over being toilet tissue checker lol. I have also not let myself get stressed this time which has been a huge help and when I feel myself stressing I just switch off and almost reboot. I dont do meditation and yoga etc but I can see why some people do.

@2020wish @MichT4 hope you both have fab trips x

@HopeForRainbowbaby congratulations 🥳 I don't do any housework that is OHs domain along with cooking, paying the bills and everything else... I'm just a pretty face apparently 😂

@DBTJ ahh so nice that you felt something, like @chloedancer897 said bean is probably too small for you to feel them directly but they can start wriggling and you can feel the fluid around them moving a bit like ovulation pain if that makes sense, sure it's a lovely feeling either way ☺️

@Pugprincess glad spotting has stopped for you and good to stand your ground with the Dr. I definitely wouldn't write your EPU off, I think they just don't take people too early as there won't be anything to see really and that might just make mums to be more anxious as they won't be able to confirm if everything is progressing yet. Keep the faith ❤️

@renna @Mommybear05 how are you both getting on? x

@VP91x did you get your results? xx

@SmileyT your set up sounds dreamy!! 😆. How was work? No, unfortunately!! Last time must have been a fluke to get them the next day. I'm sure I'll get them Monday xx

@VP91x thank you dear 😘 I am happy but also cautious. Trying to take day by day and not yet start celebrating. I think I will feel when I pass 5.5 weeks. How are you?

@SmileyT thank you 😘 I have prepared a list of things to do for him for tomorrow 😂 how far are you now and how do you feel?

@Wishingfornumber2 if you have long cycles and waiting for things to regulate a bit more - maybe do a little research into Inositol for fertility. It seems to help regulate things & has a lot of success stories behind it for women, especially women with PCOS (but also useful for those without too).

I am unsure what the heavier than normal bleed may be - maybe if you had a longer cycle it was just more tissue to be released? Especially if you had been taken certain things to strengthen the lining.

Xxx

@SmileyT my dh does all the cooking and washing up and helps with housework but now I'm pregnant he's talking it all on so time to relax I guess xx

@SmileyT yea i thought the same and it was very weird but then I saw the belly move and I think that's what freaked me out. Hope your keeping well

@HopeForRainbowbaby I can see them very clearly on the clear blue and frer. And can see hints of a line on the cheapies but that’s ok cause my cheapies where like that

Ive just arrived. So tired. Ready for bed and ain’t is already trying to offer me the wine 😂

Hi all, just to excuse myself from this thread for the forseeable future and to thank you for all your support in the past month after my miscarriage. I have realised that it's probably best I leave for now, because although you have all been supportive and reassuring to me, perhaps because I am so young and immature I am finding myself getting unhealthily jealous of all your successes in TTC and in your lives in general. I will keep you updated on my TTC journey and may pop in from time to time, but I don't want to hang around whilst I can't be the listening ear that you deserve, and especially whilst I lack the life experience to give any of you proper advice. Wishing everyone the best in their pregnancies, TTC, and with everything ❤️

@scrambledeggy oh bless you, please keep us updated and look after yourself xx

@scrambledeggy ahh I'm sorry that you feel that way, I've been very conscious of how much pregnancy talk there is on this TTC thread so think you may not be the only person feeling this way and I'm going to be very conscious to not talk about it on here as I know how upsetting it can be when TTC. I really wish you the very best and hope you pop back on here with your BFP soon ❤️

@VP91x work was all good thanks lovely, so ready for the weekend as per usual though. How was your week wfh? xx

Thank you @Lollol86. You have every right to talk about your longed for pregnancy on here, it's such joyful news amongst everything else! It's more that I'm very silly and immature and need to sort some of my own feelings of inadequacy out in my own time. Keep doing what you do!

Sorry forgot to tag @SmileyT above

Thanks @HappyVibes will have a look!
@scrambledeggy bless you. Do what ever feels best for you. You will get your bfp that sticks I’m sure if it ❤️

@scrambledeggy sorry to see you go. Please come back when you’re ready. Sorry if I’ve caused any of this with my talking about spotting today. Normally I’ve tried to not discuss myself too much since but been a panic arse today understandably. Hope you feel better soon and if I can get over this spotting I will try to keep the pregnancy talk to a minimum. Xx

@Scrambledeggy sorry that you're leaving, I hope you come back. Hopefully you see this, but you're not silly or immature! Please don't ever feel inadequate. You're a strong, capable woman. Soon you'll have the pregnancy you long for and everything else falls into place. Remember noone has their shit together no matter how mature/put together/well off they seem. Best of luck ❤️

@SmileyT it was fine really, I just had to get to grips with the systems and do some research really. Nothing strenous. I might be at home for the next couple of weeks too and my team lead went to mallorca and is now having to quarantine 🙄. So might be a bit of a rocky couple of weeks.

Hope you are resting up? The time seems to be flying by. I just want AF to arrive now, I'm done with this cycle 😆 xx

Literally my aunts and sister talking about miscarriages and people losing their pregnancies. I can’t deal. Both my aunt and sister know I had 3 so surely a bit of sensitivity. And my sister knows I’m currently pregnant and riddled with anxiety atm. (My aunt doesn’t). Am I being over dramatic they are having these conversations in front of me during our weekend away??

@scrambledeggy that’s really sad my lovely that you feel this way. The thread is for TTC & that’s what situation you’re in lovely, so please if you want to stay or want to continue chatting about TTC specifically, holla at me girl. Hope you’re feeling okay soon. Please do not apologise and do not put yourself down at all. Look after yourself 💓

@VP91x how come you’re done with this cycle? What you feeling? How mad is it that when TTC it feels like every 1day = 1year. It’s like time slows down big time ha. Xxx

@2020wish yeah if they know what's happened then they should be more careful, maybe pull one of them aside and ask them to steer the conversation elsewhere as it is making you uncomfortable?

@HappyVibes ah just because I'm on CD24 and I've not ovulated this cycle/won't ovulate now so I'm just ready to move along to the next! Xx

@scrambledeggy you are not silly or immature as you have the maturity to take yourself out of situations that you don't feel aid your mental health. I didn't even want to see my best friend and her newborn baby as I was so jealous, so I'm sure we all have those feelings. Honestly wishing you all the luck in the world with your journey ❤️

@VP91x that's so nice being at home another couple weeks, somebody at work is in France and unless they get a flight tonight will have to quarantine for 14 days on their return on zero pay 😩 and don't you worry all I do is rest around work, I'm already in bed 😂 I'm hoping you get your blood work back on Monday and it kickstarts some investigations as that will keep you occupied around a potty training toddler 🙈 I obviously forever have my Pom poms out for you and hoping that you get a surprise late ovulation but if not yes let's get that AF going and onto the next one xx

@2020wish if it is bothering you, could you say something to them, sometimes people don't realise what they are doing until you stop them and explain your feelings, I'm sure it's not intentional x

@VP91x ah I see. I hope it comes soon for you. If it’s any consolation for you - my last cycle, I didn’t ovulate until CD25. So glad I persevered with the OPKs xxx
