@Lollol86 when does the sickness usually hit you? I didn’t get any with my mc either. I mc the day I turned 8 weeks. Not felt much this time either but I thought I felt a bit sick but it’s nothing strong enough to make me say Yh this is real and not in my head x

VP91x · 12/08/2020 15:28

@MrsK21 @Northernsoul90 thank you ❤️
Yes, I'm sure my doc would say yes, but my opks haven't got much darker so looking unlikely. Erm, actually my bbt has been weirdly enough but everyone is different!

@Lollol86 I'm in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire. How about you? Xx

@Pugprincess I can't remember exactly but I'm sure it was by 6 weeks xx

Lollol86 · 12/08/2020 15:31

@VP91x I'm in Swindon so not too far away, hopefully the storms head this way soon xx

Pugprincess · 12/08/2020 15:31

@Lollol86 thanks. Regarding old blood I worry cause I had a lot of dark brown before my mc. But this was literally specks and light brown like my implantation bleed was. I did read dark browns more of a concern. Let me know if you start feeling sick lol, I estimate I’m 4+3 today xx

Lollol86 · 12/08/2020 15:34

@Pugprincess oh I totally understand any bleeding is a worry. I will do and you the same if you start xx

VP91x · 12/08/2020 15:37

@Lollol86 so weird one side of my house is dark skies and the other clear blue but hopefully it rains loads. We need it! Xx

MichT4 · 12/08/2020 15:37

@VP91x @Lollol86 I'm in Basingstoke and can hear the rumblings of thunder. Thank god!!

@Pugprincess yes tomorrow I think, fingers crossed but feeling ready for it not to be this month. Will keep my positive head on though!
Try not to worry too much about the brown spotting. You'd have been due AF about now and I think that can happen as a result. Your little ornament is gorgeous.

@Lollol86 don't worry either. Every pregnancy is different. I'm so good at giving advice and not taking it 😂 I'm sure your little bean is just being kind to you.

@VP91x cake is all anyone really wants. I'm heading to boots/Superdrug soon to get some tests and might have to get some cake.

Ahaaaa another symptom! Oh how I wish it would lead to something.

Any views on FRER or CB for my blank space tomorrow? 🤣🤣

xx

VP91x · 12/08/2020 15:40

@MichT4 erm, what about a CB triple check early detection pack? Or a CB digi weeks indicator? I know the weeks indicator is more sensitive than the one that comes in the triple pack. So if you want something clearcut then go for that xx

OP posts:
VP91x · 12/08/2020 15:42

@MichT4 oh and DEFINITELY get cake, 🥳xx

OP posts:
Lollol86 · 12/08/2020 15:50

@MichT4 oh I know they can be different but worry when I don't get sickness because of my past pregnancies. I'm also the same with giving the advice just can't stick to it 🤣🤣

@VP91x so when do you think a digital with weeks indicator with pick up a pregnancy? Xx

VP91x · 12/08/2020 15:53

@Lollol86 it's meant to be 10miu so no much more than a FRER I bet you would get a result on the digi now xx

@MichT4 ahhh hopefully the headaches mean something and it's actually a BFP sign. Did you manage to get all your house stuff sorted?
I think you've had a couple of stressful days with lots going on, combined with the heat, and going away / needing to test, it may be contributing to a headache
Best of luck for testing in the morning :)

@VP91x everyone at work is telling me about these clouds and storms - where I am in Essex- BLAZING sun, not a single cloud in sight and 32 degrees heat. Don't know how many more days of this I can take, really hoping it cools down by the time FW rolls around, dreading the thought of BD in this heat.
My AF has picked up and gotten quite heavy, so it's just adding to my discomfort in this furnace like weather

VP91x · 12/08/2020 15:58

@MrsK21 you're not far from me at all, they'll move over to you soon 😂. No rain yet just thunder and darker skies. I know, it needs to cool down soon. Thunderstorms and rain are forecast for the next few days so it will cool down slightly I hope xx

OP posts:
MrsK21 · 12/08/2020 16:00

@Firevie sorry AF got you, but defo carry on looking on the brightside, it's a nice reset and making space for a lovely strong bean to make it's home soon. Loving your positive attitude! xxx

Lollol86 · 12/08/2020 16:06

@VP91x is that the same as the frer? Xx

VP91x · 12/08/2020 16:10

@Lollol86 FRER is 6miu, and you got a good line on that xx

OP posts:
MichT4 · 12/08/2020 16:17

@VP91x in true me style, I bought both, so I now have so many bloody tests. Watch AF arrive tonight 😂
I thought if I take the most sensitive then it's good, but I know I'd want to test on multiple so I might as well stock up 🙄. So much money on this damn TTC lark.

It starting whissing down while I was out. I embraced it, was a nice change! Crazy lady buying 5 pg tests and standing in the rain.

I bought chocolate, I assume that's a worthy alternative?

@MrsK21 yeah it would be nice if it was. Not so nice if it was to last the entire time. I'd take it though!
Yeah pretty much sorted. Someone else is coming tomorrow to look at something else - why they can't send one person, who knows!?
How are you getting on? Hopefully full flow means it won't last much longer 🤞🏼xx

chloedancer897 · 12/08/2020 16:19

AF here for me too. I loaded up with lush bath bombs to treat myself to a nice hot bath tomorrow

VP91x · 12/08/2020 16:24

@chloedancer897 I haven't had a bath bomb in years! Enjoy❤️ hope you are ok?

@MichT4 haha I would have done the same, don't worry! Yes, but the real question is.. What choccie did you get? Xx

OP posts:
MichT4 · 12/08/2020 16:36

@VP91x ahh important ones first. Dairy milk Oreo, big bar obviously. I could eat the lot 🐷

@chloedancer897 sorry AF arrived. But I must say, your steamy bath bomb bath sounds amazing! How are you feeling? xx

HE88 · 12/08/2020 16:39

Hi ladies I've been MIA for the past couple of weeks took a wee break from mumsnet.
I can't believe I've missed nearly 2 full threads you ladies love a chat ha ha. I'm sorry but I'm not 100% sure where everyone is at but I hope you are all well.

Wish I was here to give some positive news but I have none 😥. I'm in my tww af due next Tuesday and in typical af fashion I had some spotting this morning! I'm honestly at breaking point now and I feel so conflicted on what to do keep trying or give up!
I do have an appointment with my consultant from the fertility clinic in a couple of weeks so I'm really hoping something comes from this.

I've also been feeling a bit yuck the last couple of days like I'm coming down with a cold but hubby and daughter have had the cold so probably because of that but I've also noticed by resting heart rate has increases slightly over the last couple of days and I remember someone talking about this but can't remember who it was sorry. Anyway could all just be a coincidence and it's rising cause I've been feeling a bit shit.

Man sorry I feel like I've came back and just ranted but I don't know who else to talk to.

chloedancer897 · 12/08/2020 16:40

@VP91x @MichT4 I'm really struggling TBH. I told my other children today what's been going on as they've seen me so upset and all over the place and they were so lovely. My eldest said she knew we had been trying for a baby. She found all of my ovulation kits in the bathroom. I chatted to DH and he's on board to start private treatment even though it's not what either of us hoped for. But I'm hoping it'll give us what we want. In the meantime, I'll be back to charting, OPKs and SMEP to make sure but like I said, I'm not hopeful
