🦕 Catching up - ttc after miscarriage part 4 🦕

[Annny27]

Hi everyone,

Setting up the new thread for us - we have come a long way since January and sadly a few of us are still on the "journey". Let's hope we arent here for much longer. Wishing us all baby dust (although its been so long I am not sure dust will do it for me - maybe will have to up the particle size to "baby sand" )

Ttc ladies:

@Fizzl ahhhhhh MASSIVE congratulations lovely!! I'm so so happy for you!! Those are definite BFPs!!! It sounds like the relaxing helped (although it's basically impossible to make yourself relax and it's such annoying advice... could've been a coincidence but you never know!!) try to relax now and enjoy it... sending so many positive vibes for a sticky bean!!!

@Annny27 totally agree with what everyone has said... you were the first person I spoke to on here as we were on the same due in June thread with our rainbows... you manage to stay so positive and are so supportive of everyone else whilst going through your own personal struggles... you are a superwoman and I am hoping and wishing SO much that you get your BFP soon!!! I'm so sorry to hear about DH's sperm analysis... keeping fingers crossed that the new diet, vitamins and loose boxers help!! And at least it has happened before, so he must have some good ones in there!! Sending you a big virtual hug xxxxxxxx

@Annny27
How funny is it your talking about boxers and this pops up at the bottom of the chat 😂😂😂😂😂

@Fizzl
Definitely a bfp here!!!!!
Try to do a test tonight after holding and not drinking much!!! Sorry if it has been mentioned already i just went over comments i am so excited for you 💛💛💛💛
After all your troubles and the confused uterus, this is so deserved. You didn't give up!!!
Well done girl 💪🌟
And obviously congrats and hoping to see a good fat pink line in two days 😀 🤞

Also if you feel like an anxious mess it's totally normal. One day at a time...
It's a marathon this one too. 🤗

@Annny27 you didn't take progesterone this month for your tests correct?
How is you LP then?

@Fizzl
Also don't worry about all the food.
As i mentioned previously in July the cycle we did it, we were on holiday eating all the food in the world and restaurants and cakes and not a single vegetable or healthy food compared to our routine at home. We just completely went on a treat yourself kinda mood 😁
So i am starting to think it helps!
Although didn't my weight 😂
But at this point i don't care. Just grateful 🙏

@27DONFIN thats really great that you OH is all registered and ready for the test now! Haha I think it is a bit embarrasing - but not as embarrasing as a transvaginal ultrasound and showing a few nurses your vagina haha!

@milscookie ahh I feel like its my birthday everyones being so sweet 🥰🥰 yes back when we were so naive and excited haha! Now I am a downtrodden cynic 🙈

@sunnysideup2020 yep no progesterone this cycle and its 12/13dpo today and only now just had a bit of spotting so its fine i think! I must have just had a few weird months in the middle as I have never had that problem before! I had my progesterone taken last Monday so I will find out next week anyway what the levels are :)

@babyghirl haha I've told my DH he has to wear baggy old man boxers now haha

@Fizzl Ahhhh this is amazing news lovey!! I can definitely see both of those lines!! The anxiety is consuming in those early days, but you’ve got this 💪🏻❤️

@Annny27 exactly!!!!! I’m going to say that when he moans about taking his sample into the hospital.

@Annny27 that makes me so sad... don't lose hope!!!! It WILL happen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

@Fizzl ! Oh my goodness! Congratulations 🎉 so so happy to log on and see your update, that test is a clear positive and don't worry at all about what you've been doing before the test! I ate what I wanted, Drank a lot of wine over march when I conceived (three birthdays in the family in March) and had stopped all my vitamins.

I'm thrilled for you 🥰

@Fizzl that's def a BFP!!! Yaaaay!!! Soo excited for you! 🤞those lines progress on nicely in the next few days!! Xx

Ah thanks guys 🥰 and thanks for the reassurances! It still feels a bit surreal. I think it felt hard to imagine ever getting to this point again. I'm cautiously hopeful - I know my lines are still super faint for 12dpo so 🤞 for some line progression and this is a sticky baby. I did another ic test this afternoon and the line was pretty much the same as this morning so will see what it's like in the morning. My tests last year were darker at this point but trying not to worry too much about that!

@Annny27 ah I'm so sorry 😞 I totally get it. I think any pregnancy announcement always feels bitter sweet and I would have so loved for this to have been your month. I'm not going anywhere so I will stay on this journey with you 💐 and I'm sending you all the luck and positive vibes. I will just echo what everyone else has said and you have given me so much support since last nov x

@SunnySideUp2020 oh gosh yes my confused uterus! Threw a bit of a spanner in the works for 3 months that did! In hindsight I now think my body just probably wasn't ready for whatever reason and hopefully now it is 🤞 this was only my second proper cycle where things seemed back to normal and my LP had lengthened slightly - hopefully all good signs, time will tell!

@Fizzl
These are my friend's IC
First at 11 dpo and second at 13 dpo.
She s 6 weeks now and no issues.
Sometimes tests can be a bit faint but it's ok...

@Annny27

That's good news about the LP back to normal.
Hopefully you get a good number in your results and don't need to take the supplements in the future!

Thanks @SunnySideUp2020 that's reassuring.

I've tested again this morning and think there's a bit of line progression but not loads! 😬 trying not to read too much into it yet and hoping maybe I implanted slightly later! My tests last year were definitely much darker by 13dpo. I know they say to leave it every 48hrs so hoping by tomorrow it looks quite a bit darker 🤞

@Fizzl
There is definitely a little progression!
I would do a frer tomorrow to be able to compare from 48hrs with a good test 🤞

Omg!!!!! @Fizzl congratulations!! So happy for you!

Don't worry @Annny27 you won't be left alone. Don't think I'm ever going to get the chance to me a mum 😭😭 has AF arrived for you yet?

Afternoon girls :) I gave pre-emptivley booked my day 1-5 blood tests for Tuesday so atleast this cycle isn't all lost! I get my bloods and my ultrasound.

@nuggetlover27 14dpo and brown spotting so guess she will make an appearance tomorrow!! Its super disheartening isnt it! Didnt even cry this cycle just like ahh well ofcourse I am not pregnant 😂

@fizzl deffo getting darker!!! Try tomorrow with FRER 🙌🙌🙌 are you gonna tell family or keep it to yourself untill 12 weeks?

@SunnySideUp2020 yep I am desperately hoping my progesterone levels come back good 🤞🤞🤞

@27DONFIN do you have any upcoming tests?

@Annny27 Iv had my first set of bloods to check I’m ovulating which I was. Now waiting on the Gp getting back to us for my OH to collect his sample kit. They said once he’s been tested then they’ll see where we go from there with more tests.

@Babyghirl 💚🍀 hail hail

@27DONFIN
Com on the hoops 🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚

@Nuggetlover27 thank you - I'm staying slightly cautious at the moment because it's such early days and my tests aren't blazing positive yet but trying to be hopeful 😬

@Annny27 we always said we would tell family earlier this time as we ended up telling them when things didn't work out anyway and we would tell them again if the worse was to happen. But we have agreed that it still feels too soon right now and we will wait until things have progressed a little further to make sure it's not a chemical. I don't want to tell people today and then my period start tomorrow. I'll need a scan at 6weeks before I start blood thinners so if all looks good at that point we'll tell people. I think by 6 weeks it will feel more real and if anything was to happen after that point I'd want their support. I think right now I'd obviously be devastated but me and my dh would deal with it together and start trying again. Only exception is I'd probably tell my mum if anything happened. I very nearly told her yesterday but decided not to at the last minute, more because I feel responsible for not getting anyone's hopes up 😬.

I think it does help when you feel you're being proactive! I felt better having tests done and it helped put my mind at rest. My husband is still going to go for his SA next week just incase things don't pan out with this pregnancy it's one more thing ticked off!

@fizzl
I have been thinking about you and wondering how your doing, I'm sure your living on the edge and knicker watching just like myself but I'm telling myself today I'm pregnant and unless something happens to make me think other ways. Remember different egg different sperm different baby different outcome. I have a scan on Thursday and I'm dreading it but I just want to know wats happening in there wish we had telly tubbies bellys so we could just look in 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Amazing news @Fizzl, congratulations! So pleased for you. This thread was definitely overdue some BFPs!

@Babyghirl I'm doing ok thanks! Just trying to put it to the back of my mind for now and kind of feel at peace that it's totally out of my control. I've had quite a bit of line progression since this morning so feeling a bit of relief for now that things are hopefully heading in the right direction. The last frer is getting cracked open tomorrow!

Thanks @scrumdiddly123 it definitely was this thread has been so quiet recently as there are so few of us left. I'm sending all the positive wishes, it's been such a journey for everyone 💐
