Is it definitely not IB @whambam89? x

whambam89 · 10/10/2020 18:33

@MrsB2019x I'm pretty sure it's not, it's light and pink but not just discharge with a bit of pink in it if you know what I mean? Which is what I usually see when people post about IB. I've had a bit of cramping this afternoon too.

I'm absolutely gutted, not because of AF because I honestly didn't expect a BFP this month but because I'd managed to get my LP up to 11 days from 9 and now it's gone down to 8?! 😭

Sansa87 · 10/10/2020 18:54

I’m so sorry @whambam89 that sucks. Hopefully just implanting though 🤞🏻 Do you take b6? I was suggested that to lengthen lp

MrsB2019x · 10/10/2020 18:55

I really hope it’s not AF @whambam89 xx

whambam89 · 10/10/2020 19:12

@sansa87 @MrsB2019x thanks girls.

I take a cocktail of vitamins including B12 😂

I've just been to the loo again and now it looks more like IB when I wipe but I'm not sure, I did take a pic but feel like that's a bit tmi even for everything we share in this group. I guess I'll have to just wait and see what it's like tomorrow. My boobs are still sore and usually they're fine from the day before AF so I'll hold on to that hope for now I suppose!

kirinm · 10/10/2020 19:15

Fingers crossed tightly for you @whambam89 x

BuckleUp · 10/10/2020 20:47

@whambam89 Aww I'm sorry AF might have shown. It does seem early though so hopefully it's IB? I'm a google nightmare! Every twinge and I'm on there looking for an explanation 😂.

@MrsB2019x Test again when AF is due. Hopefully that test was just faulty and you tested a bit early 🤞🏻

I'm doing ok. I had my scan last week and everything seems okay so it's just a waiting game now. It seems to be that way at every stage of this process!

MrsB2019x · 10/10/2020 21:09

@whambam89 Light pink definitely sounds like IB to me. Everything crossed for you!

whambam89 · 10/10/2020 21:44

@MrsB2019x I'm trying to convince myself that it could be but at the same time know that it's pretty unlikely. Have been out with a friend for a couple of hours to try and take my mind off it, still only light pink bleeding, no clots but still getting cramps as well (I don't usually get cramps once AF has started so maybe that's a good sign, but maybe I'm just clutching at straws!) I'm just at a complete loss if it is AF because how am I ever supposed to get pregnant with an LP that short? 😭

Sansa87 · 10/10/2020 22:37

@whambam89 I’m ten weeks and still get those sodding cramps I got from 6dpo.

My mum has always said “hope for the best, but expect the worst, & you will never die of a broken heart” bit dramatic, but reading between the lines, it’s a good motto to follow

whambam89 · 10/10/2020 22:48

@sansa87 I'm just so so fed up with it all, feel like it's never going to happen for us. If it was just the cramps with no bleeding I'd perhaps be more optimistic, I just don't know what to do with an 8 day LP - I could literally cry about how short it's been this month 😭

I know there's a chance I could wake up tomorrow and the bleeding would have stopped, or not got any heavier, but there's also a chance I'll wake up to heavy bleeding.

I've basically spent my spare time googling implantation bleeding this evening and I'm still none the wiser, despite reading about 527 different websites / threads.

SS123456 · 11/10/2020 07:13

@whambam89 I have been speaking to a holistic fertility specialist this week as my LP is too short and she said it sometimes happens when there is a thyroid issue. She recommended I take a medi checks thyroid test just to be sure and rule it out. I'm not sure if that could help for you too?

SS123456 · 11/10/2020 07:32

I'm 11DPO (AF due tomorrow) and had a BFN on a cheapy and a FRER this morning. I was hopefully there was a chance as my bbt had gone up 0.2 since yesterday and my resting heart rate is the highest it has been in a year but no such luck 😔

kirinm · 11/10/2020 08:04

Sorry to hear you got a BFN @SS123456 :(

How are you today @whambam89

Are you testing again today @MrsB2019x

CD11 and still a negative OPK but it's getting darker so I think I'll get a peak either tonight or tomorrow.

MrsB2019x · 11/10/2020 09:12

@kirinm Yeah taken a final test this morning as AF due tomorrow, BFN 😔 Glad you’re on the way to OV! Are you feeling better now you know when it’s coming?

Any update on the bleeding @whambam89?

Me and DH had a really big talk yesterday about TTC, he is really struggling with it all too. He’s missing the baby we lost and struggling with us not catching again. Not sure what we’re going to do to try and ease the stress but think he’s feeling a little better for getting it off his chest

whambam89 · 11/10/2020 09:56

@SS123456 my mum has an under active thyroid so that might be worth looking into! Thanks for mentioning and sorry about your BFN 😔

@kirinm @MrsB2019x still bleeding this morning, nothing on a pad overnight and it's still pretty light, although there was a weird clot when I wiped first thing, so I'm 95% sure it's AF.

Sorry to hear about your BFN Mrs B! We're definitely in need of a BFP or 2 in this thread, it's been a while 😟

whambam89 · 11/10/2020 11:04

Heavier flow now so definitely AF. Slightly concerned because my boobs still hurt and that was the reason I tested after AF when I had my ectopic 😭

MrsB2019x · 11/10/2020 12:38

@whambam89 I’m so sorry 😔 maybe take a test tomorrow just in case? x

whambam89 · 11/10/2020 12:51

@MrsB2019x I've got 3 tests so think I'll test every other day if my boobs are still hurting. I've also read up on how to naturally improve thyroid function so think I need to make some drastic changes to my diet, may also try BBT this month although I'm not sure how reliable it'll be with DD waking at different times every day!

How are you feeling?

MrsB2019x · 11/10/2020 17:24

@whambam89 Fair enough, let us know how you get on ☺️ I’m doing okay, got a lot out of my system yesterday so I have kind of accepted I’m out this month. Expecting to have a bit of a meltdown when AF arrives though 😂

whambam89 · 11/10/2020 17:30

@MrsB2019x is it tomorrow you're due?

I'm so exhausted with it all today, feel like getting in bed now for the day 🙈 hopefully tomorrow I'll wake up feeling a bit more positive because today had been a write off!

MrsB2019x · 11/10/2020 20:08

@whambam89 Yeah due tomorrow. Looking to the next cycle now, DH has just ordered some Wellman vitamins so hoping that will do something! You gonna test tomorrow?

whambam89 · 11/10/2020 21:09

@MrsB2019x I might look into vitamins for my OH as well actually, I take loads but he doesn't take anything so could be the worth looking at! Although I pretty much know that I'm the issue with my stupid LP.

I think I'll wait until Tuesday to test - give it a good 48 hours from when I started bleeding. I very much expect a BFN but considering my previous ectopic I think I should check with it being different to normal. Seems to have got a lot lighter tonight but I'm still getting cramps which is weird! Not had any more clots either 🤷🏻‍♀️

MrsB2019x · 11/10/2020 21:59

@whambam89 I do think this may be it for you! 🥰

whambam89 · 11/10/2020 22:24

@MrsB2019x I'm glad one of us is optimistic 😂 I'm certain that the bleeding for most of the day has been too heavy to be IB unfortunately 😔
