@Stayinghopeful92x I'm so sorry you're going through this. Stay strong and surround yourself with supportive people who have your best interests at heart xo

HE88 · 18/08/2020 14:58

Thanks @chloedancer897.

I ended up out shopping this morning popped into boots to look at their supplements (as that's what you do when out shopping) anyway I'm now £36 lighter after buying what's in the pic 🙈😂.

@HE88 if anything we will be super healthy!lol

HE88 · 18/08/2020 15:01

Also welcome to the new ladies I'm really sorry that you have experienced a loss this group is very supportive so I hope you find some comfort being here. Xx

@Stayinghopeful92x I'm so sorry to hear about what your partner has done to you what a dickhead you are so better off without him! Xx

HE88 · 18/08/2020 15:03

@chloedancer897 ha ha this is very true I didn't even look at the prices just picked them up and happily went off to the till. It was 3 for 2 and still cost me £36 the coq10 was £30 lol. Xx

Lollol86 · 18/08/2020 15:15

@BEESY90 could it be an empty sack because you aren't too far along? Xx

Northernsoul90 · 18/08/2020 16:25

@Stayinghopeful92x I'm so sorry to hear this! What a dick! You have done the right thing in kicking him out... good riddance. I hope you are okay and have lots of supportive family and friends around you xx

@BEESY90 Do let us know how you get on, I really hope it's not ectopic 🙏🏼. How far along should you be now? Xx

Diorissimo1985 · 18/08/2020 16:51

Sorry to see people’s sad news and also welcome to the new posters - hoping you find love and support on this thread, as I have done over the past 5 months 💚

Hayley19835 · 18/08/2020 17:05

Thanks @Northernsoul90 we didn't get good news. Seems IVF is our only option now and as OH has a child from a previous relationship we would have to fund ourselves which at the moment we can't afford. I'm just trying to process it all at the minute feel like my heart has been ripped out and jumped all over right now

Northernsoul90 · 18/08/2020 17:14

@Hayley19835 I am so sorry 😔 I know I can't really say much in this situation to make you feel better but do know we are here for you. Do you have any children? My sister is in a similar situation - she has a child, her husband doesn't but even so they don't qualify 😣. She is looking into ABC ivf at the minute, she actually has a consultation tomorrow. It is more affordable than other IVF options which just aren't accessible to her at the moment due to finances. It is worth a look at I think it's 2500 or 500 if you donate eggs. Obviously there may be additional hidden costs and you would have to look at the ins and outs but worth considering. Sending hugs ❤️ xx

Hayley19835 · 18/08/2020 17:21

@Northernsoul90 no i don't have children.
Thank you will certainly look into it.
They want to repeat his SA again for a third time I'm not sure what they are expecting to see and then talk to us again in 2 months at which point she'll point is in the direction of clinics in our area that can help us further. I'm just feeling like life is pretty unfair at the minute as they can't give us a definitive answer as to why his SA is so bad as everything else came back normal xx

Lollol86 · 18/08/2020 17:35

@Hayley19835 oh I'm so sorry. That really pees me off the fact you can't get funding as he has a child from a previous relationship. What about you? What about the effect this could have on you mentally xx

chloedancer897 · 18/08/2020 17:45

@Hayley19835 we are in a similar situation. We can't afford it but I think we will take out a loan. It's not what we wanted but the ends justify the means. I was heartbroken last week but I've upped my game with supplements this month plus the Ava so I'm still trying my damnedest until we get our date ❤️

Hayley19835 · 18/08/2020 18:03

@Lollol86 totally unfair and defo think this needs to be reviewed. Luckily I have a good support net work around me to keep my sane!
@chloedancer897 it's such a shit situation to be in I'm sure my family would lend us the money but if it doesn't work then what.

I need to some time to process everything I think and then weigh up our options. We can't do anything for 2 months now but keep trying until they have the results of this next SA and our next follow up

chloedancer897 · 18/08/2020 18:05

@Hayley19835 sounds like a good idea. I have everything crossed for you x

HopeForRainbowbaby · 18/08/2020 19:10

@Stayinghopeful92x I'm sorry about it! Good that you have acted before on your instincts... i think he should have been clear to you that he is moving on much earlier so you are not wasting your precious time for him.
Lots of love dear 😘

@BEESY90 im so sad hearing your news:( I hope they help you quickly.

Welcome to new ladies! Unfortunately as we find out miscarriages are quite common but this group has been great support for ladies after MC and we see multiple success stories🥰

VP91x · 18/08/2020 19:26

@Cici89 how did your test go this morning?

@Northernsoul90 we actually ended up booking a week away at Butlins in Somerset with the sunsavers codes that @MichT4 posted a few threads back! So we are going on 14th Sept, unfortunately meant I had to push back my gynae appt but it's okay as it is a "Just for Tots" week so hopefully Bella will have lots of fun. Yeah so the temp drop should be on the day of ovulation and then you should see a clear rise the day after if that makes sense. I see you got another flashy today I am sure you haven't missed it, remember your temps can fluctuate anyway. Also try not to wear yourselves just yet, haha! Every other will be fine until you get your peak which may still be a few days away xx

@HE88 I was just taking the EPO from Tesco, not sure about the Coq10 I've not looked into it at all.

@Bl0ndi3 So sorry that you got that, a lot of us have experienced the same, hope you are okay. I would still use the FMU, pop it in a cup and dip the stick in you can always look at the result when you wake up properly later in the day, just eject the stick it will show up :)

@Pugprincess Hope the spotting has died down again? Did EPU ever say anything about a reassurance scan sooner? You have one next week don't you?

@ladysamee I see a line on your test, but I understand what you mean about it not having colour. Test in a day or so and hopefully it will be stronger, fingers crossed x

@Hayley19835 I'm sorry it was bad news, but I had no idea that even if you don't have a child that you wouldn't qualify because he has from a different marriage, how does that even make sense?! Can't you appeal or go back and ask why you wouldn't be entitled even though you don't have a child? So unfair! x

@kittycat581 Welcome, so sorry that you have had a miscarriage. Look after yourself, as some of the others have said some are fine to TTC straight away, some wait for a period first. Do whatever is most comfortable for you - be kind to yourself xx

@Fingerscrossedfor2021HK Welcome too, I hope you are okay and so sorry for your loss. I hope you are recovering okay physically & emotionally after ERPC. x

@MrsK21 I think between me and @SmileyT we deciphered that left is LH and right is estrogen.. correct me if I'm wrong Smiley it might be the other way around, haha. They fluctuate so much though, try not to focus on anything other than the smilies xx

@Stayinghopeful92x god, what a tosser, absolutely the right thing to do. I am so sorry though you must be devastated especially after all the TTC/MC. Sending you a big hug, hope you are being looked after by your support network xx

@BEESY90 god, what a day for bad news. I really hope that they are just catching it a bit early on the scan, when will they see you next? Sending you lots of luck.x

Ladies, I am sooo tired of this cycle now. I want AF to hurry up and come along x

Cici89 · 18/08/2020 19:35

@VP91x Unfortunately a bfn followed by AF. But dya know what, I’m delighted to be put out of my misery of testing and being disappointed. It was probably always going to be a long shot getting pregnant straight after my MMC without af. So CD1 here we are, let’s hope it goes by quickly 🤞🏼 I feel so much better just knowing now and she came a day early!

VP91x · 18/08/2020 19:37

@Cici89 god double whammy, hate when that happens you feel like you've wasted a test. But yes, it is positive that you're onto a new cycle. Fresh new start for you 🤞x

Lollol86 · 18/08/2020 19:45

@VP91x ohhh we went to Butlins in Minehead with the sun savers, Olivia must have been about 3-4 she absolutely loved it and says it was her best holiday xx

VP91x · 18/08/2020 19:47

@Lollol86 oh amazing!! Have you got any tips? Did you do the dining plan? Xx
