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" )

Thank you @scrumdiddly123 that’s what I thought. I’ll wait until after the private scan and if all looks ok I’ll phone and ask.

ELM7 · 09/12/2020 20:33

@Nuggetlover27 sorry AF has arrived. Hope you are enjoying a nice glass of wine or something.

Really hope AF doesn’t arrive for you @Annny27

Annny27 · 10/12/2020 08:47

Morning :) 11dpo and sort of feel how I do before AF. Irritable, crampy and less hopeful at this stage.

Haven't been spending a lot of time symptom spotting this month which is good but AF is due anytime between sat and Monday

@babyghirl 100% when it can take so long to conceive then you don't want to be missing 3 potential months!

@27DONFIN how are you feeling?

@ELM7 thank you! As it gets closer to my period I get more accepting that this month probs isn't it. But always hopeful as you can imagine

@scrumdiddly123 how come you are consultant led? And yeah I stopped taking my progesterone after my bloods confirmed that my levels are high enough:)

Morning everyone, hope you're all doing ok! Sorry I've not been around much, trying to keep myself distracted and busy still! I've got my 12 week scan on Monday so hoping all is still looking good 😬

Sorry AF arrived @Nuggetlover27 💐

@ELM7 I'm consultant led and have still seen the midwife as normal. They told me I'd just see the consultant in addition to normal midwife appointments. It may depend on the reason why you're consultant led tho? I don't know to be honest.

@Annny27 sounds like you've had a rough ride with your tooth infection! Sounds pretty nasty and not want you need when ttc!

27DONFIN · 10/12/2020 16:55

@Annny27 I’m ok meant to be ovulating Sunday dong know how I feel about things this month tbh. How’s your head this month? X

Babyghirl · 10/12/2020 17:15

@Annny27
Deffo don't want to waste time in trying.

Well CD14 here for my breasts r getting tender so think ovulation has occurred lol but forgot what CD I was as have not checked my app just going with it tbh I'm putting myself in for another long haul off getting that positive again prop September has the last 3 times I have fell it has happened in September for some reason lol how's every one else doing where r yous in ur cycle.

Nuggetlover27 · 11/12/2020 16:44

Thanks everyone 😘😘 I'm not a big drinker but may treat myself to a small glass of something this weekend ! Haha xx

Hope AF stays away for you @Annny27 ! 🤞🏻

Annny27 · 11/12/2020 16:53

Evening ladies!

I am 12dpo and feel exactly the same as I do most months 😬 my spotting hasn't started yet but there has been months when I havent spotted untill 14dpo so I am not holding out hope tbh! Its kinda expected at this point that af will arrive every month....

@Nuggetlover27 no I don't drink that much either but if I do get AF I am 100% having prosecco, pate, soft cheeses at Christmas haha!

@Babyghirl oh a surprise ovulation for you then! Yep I think not tracking does wonders for mental health :D

@27DONFIN have tou have ovulation signs? I am okay to be honest! Not expecting much from this month but will ofcourse be a little sad if no bfp

@fizzl best of luck for Monday!!!! Is DH allowed into scan?

OP posts:
Babyghirl · 11/12/2020 17:13

@Annny27
Not holding out much luck for the nxt 8 to 9 months giving how long it's taking each time lol so what will be will be I will just enjoy being with dp and relax
@fizzl
Good luck for Monday

27DONFIN · 11/12/2020 17:40

@Annny27 yeah I’m feeling bloated and boobs changing. Not notice change to my CM yet tho.

@Babyghirl how are you doing? When are you back at work? X

Babyghirl · 11/12/2020 20:55

@27DONFIN
I'm OK bck to work on Monday try to get bck to norm well the new normal and just relax as much as I can won't belong nw to my fertility consultant app comes through so looking forward to that. How you doing xx

scrumdiddly123 · 12/12/2020 09:21

@Annny27
after my first baby was born I had a big haemorrhage (lost nearly a litre of blood) so I’m now automatically consultant led- have to have a canula in during labour and then they put me on a drip as soon as baby is born to reduce chances of bleeding. Gutted as I’d have loved a home birth this time!
How are you today? Any sign of AF?

Annny27 · 12/12/2020 14:47

No sign of AF or spotting yet but did a cheapy test this morning and it was bfn. I know its quite low sensitivity but would have expected to see a bfp if I was pregnant! Probably just a good progesterone month hence why no spotting yet as my boobs do feel bigger but not sore.

@scrumdiddly123 thats good you will be well cared for but would have been nice to have a home birth! It wouldn't be for me as I would be too anxious but I know a few friends of friends who have had them and really rave about home birth

@Babyghirl enjoy your last weekend before back to work! Do your colleagues know what happened? I didnt tell mine only my manager and another colleague who had just had a miscarriage

@27DONFIN if you do conceive this month it will be a lovely Christmas pressie!

OP posts:
Annny27 · 12/12/2020 14:47

I should add - I am 13dpo

OP posts:
Babyghirl · 12/12/2020 14:55

@Annny27
Just my manager and supervisors and my best mate who I work with, did not want anybody else to know as I would feel embarrassed and a failure so keeping it to myself will make work less awkward in work. Hoping this turns out to be your month. 💚🍀

Annny27 · 13/12/2020 16:32

Evening :D period due tomorrow, no sign of spotting yet......

@Babyghirl miscarriages arent a choice so you haven't failed anything lovely 💗💗

OP posts:
27DONFIN · 13/12/2020 18:05

@Annny27🍀🤞🏻

Annny27 · 13/12/2020 18:12

Thanks @27DONFIN although feels like she is coming. Won't lose too much time thinking what if haha

OP posts:
Babyghirl · 14/12/2020 07:55

@Annny27
Thank you bck in work nw feels weird tbh but good to try to get myself bck to some sort off normal and will help make my app to the fertility consultant come around abit quicker lol hopefully this is your month fingers crossed for you girl. 🍀🙏🤞💚

Annny27 · 14/12/2020 10:58

@Babyghirl hopefully first day goes well!! And yes counting down the days for you now:)

OP posts:
Babyghirl · 14/12/2020 11:14

@Annny27
Hopefully it just a late bfp girl 🙏🤞🙏🤞🙏🤞

SunnySideUp2020 · 14/12/2020 11:21

@Annny27
What tests are you using?

Annny27 · 14/12/2020 12:00

Used a FRER so pretty conclusive at 15dpo! @sunnysideup2020 wasn't fmu but was concentrated

@babyghirl Very very very doubtful although you do hear of those women where hpts show negative untill like 5 weeks plus (who am I kidding 🤣🤣)

OP posts:
Babyghirl · 14/12/2020 12:42

@Annny27
