Urgh just had a little more light brown specky discharge but this time we went for a long walk last night and I was concerned that could set me off as I think I’ve read that somewhere. I felt bad that the pooch hadn’t had a decent length walk in ages though. So I think I have to rule out walking far too now 🤦🏼‍♀️ It was clear yesterday all day. X

Diorissimo1985 · 21/08/2020 07:06

Morning all, my tests aren’t getting any darker 😕 going to call GP...
Hope everyone okay today xx

eclipsechips · 21/08/2020 07:17

Thanks @VP91x @Pugprincess @Northernsoul90 DH and I have had a long talk about things since we've been TTC for so long and that we're not getting any younger, we've pretty much made up our mind that it's time to see if we can get some private help, so we're now going to start looking into things and save as much as we can - still continuing to try naturally while we're doing this though.

MichT4 · 21/08/2020 07:30

@VP91x sorry you had a down day yesterday. Are you feeling better this morning?

@stellarfox so sorry for your loss. Welcome to the group. I really hope you feel a lot of support

@Pugprincess sorry for the more spotting. Is it just a little bit. I'm glad you don't seem worried about it. I'm sure as you say it's just the walking

@Diorissimo1985 don't worry too much, maybe wait another day or two? Interested to hear what your doctor advises. I haven't managed to speak to mine yet, but I also haven't tested since Monday. Have you got a picture of today's? Is it same brand?

@eclipsechips I think that sounds like a good idea if you feel the time has come. I also think that having that option available sometimes shifts your focus slightly and takes the pressure off, which is also a good thing for your sanity

Hope everyone is ok this morning. It's really raining this morning, good job we are just packing up and going home xx

Northernsoul90 · 21/08/2020 07:47

Hope everyone is good this morning, 6th flashy for me today. I have quite an exciting/nerve wracking day as my sister is having her baby today via c section at 35 + 5. She had an extremely traumatic time with her last baby due to eclampsia so for that and a couple of other reasons baby needs to come a little earlier.

@VP91x I hope you are feeling a little better this morning! Xx

@MichT4 It's the same where I am - heavy rain! It sounds like you have had a nice break though... when will you next test? Xx

@Diorissimo1985 Fingers crossed that line gets darker for you 🤞🏼🤞🏼 xx

@Pugprincess I agree with @MichT4 it's more than likely the walking and is a good thing that you aren't too panicked by it. Hopefully it will soon settle 🤞🏼 xx

Firevie · 21/08/2020 07:47

@MichT4 sorry I have missed all of your updates. What’s the news with you? Going home today and then you will call your doc? Or test again? Sorry I have missed all of this. Xxx

MichT4 · 21/08/2020 08:07

@Northernsoul90 it's been lovely, definitely needed.

@Northernsoul90 @Firevie I haven't tested since Monday now so I'll test tomorrow morning I think. If it's negative, then I'll know but if it's still faint I'll call the doc. Thinking about it I probably will call even if it's negative as still no sign of AF.

How are you? Hope OH is recovering well? xx

VP91x · 21/08/2020 08:14

@Pugprincess It probably was the long walk as you said, was it alot? Rest up today xx

@eclipsechips it's good that you have both spoken about the options and your next steps. It also does help to take the pressure off because you onow you have something in the pipeline to help even more. Hopefully you can get the ball rolling soon xx

@MichT4 thank you lovely, a little! Have a safe journey back today xx

@Northernsoul90 oh, I hope everything goes well with your sister's birth and baby is all okay 💕💕. Those flashies are annoying even if you know you will get a few of them x

@Northernsoul90 wow that's early for baby to come, I bet the baby won't weigh much. Keep us updated xx

@MichT4 have a safe journey back xx

@Pugprincess make sure you rest up today, is your scan next Friday?

Not much of an update form me,
I think I'm getting slight waves of nausea but still wondering if it's just in my head, I also have some slight boobie pain last night. I'll be 5 weeks tomorrow so still early but hoping my symptoms are not starting to kick in xx

MrsK21 · 21/08/2020 09:41

@Northernsoul90 I'm onto my 3rd flashy this morning but better news is that my second bleeds seems to have calmed right down so I'm carrying on as normal today and sticking with CD11. Hoping I get my peak soon - the lines on the stick seemed much darker today.

How exciting for you! Hope all goes well with the c-section, let us know how she gets on!

@Pugprincess when I was pregnant I had that after long walks / gentle exercise too. I wouldn't worry about it too much - sounds like your cervix is just super sensitive. not long till the scan now! xxx

Sallyjo27 · 21/08/2020 09:42

Morning all, how is everyone? Finally rang my gp yesterday to ask for bloods (antibodies, blood clotting etc) and she can’t do them and can only do the 21 day progesterone.
Only the hospital can do them. I’ve been referred to gynaecology (we don’t have a recurrent miscarriage clinic) and there’s an 11 month wait. So after a bit of a melt down yesterday we’ve decided to have some tests done privately. Hopefully will get an appointment with the consultant within 4 weeks. I’m hoping as my luteal phase is only 10 days they’ll listen and give me progesterone.
Really annoys me that the only person who seems worried about my 3 miscarriages and wants to get to the reason why they happens is me 😩

Sallyjo27 · 21/08/2020 09:43

I meant to ask as well, as I’m on cd5 now would everyone else start trying again or would you wait?

Firevie · 21/08/2020 09:55

@MichT4 fingers crossed for you tmr morning then! OH is fine thanks. He will leave tmr and then I still have two weeks at home with my parents. So I’m hoping for my peak when I’m back in London so we don’t miss our window
Have a safe journey back xxx

Pugprincess · 21/08/2020 10:46

Hey 👋🏻 no it wasn’t a lot. I have a pic if anyone wants to see 😬 I had a right funny turn when I woke up, really dry mouth and weak, made me have a panic attack and I’m home alone 😔 rang husband and calmed down. Eaten now. Think I need to take a snack bed with me incase I get like that again. Also a smell coming from toilet was awful, I don’t know what it was but it smelt strong. Dunno if it was my toilet cage rim block thing playing tricks on my nose? Smells ok now 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ve attached gross pic of discharge but just done enlarge if you don’t want to look lol. I will take it super easy today and this weekend. No more long walks. I was really struggling half way round. Just shuffling and waddling already 😅 was in ugg type boots tho, I don’t walk the best in those lol. Scans next Friday 8.20am. Il be nervous this week cause by thurs I’m approx 6+4 which is when baby ran into trouble before and I started with lots of dark brown spotting. Like it was on tissue after most wees and was dripping into toilet and on floor when stood up. This stuff I’ve been getting has been in discharge so different for me. I know years ago I had some cervical erosion (I tend to bleed at smear tests etc) x

To all the ladies struggling to get bloods taken and results - I used medichecks online for mine & they write a full report from a doctor who specialises in that area to explain exactly what each of the results means for specific tests. It’s amazing!!!

Northernsoul90 · 21/08/2020 11:51

Thanks all, baby is here a little girl weighing 4lb 8oz which is the exact same weight her big brother was! Both are doing well and as of yet she hasn't needed to go into the NICU 🤞🏼💖.

Pugprincess · 21/08/2020 11:53

@Northernsoul90 aww congratulations 🥳 so small, love it when they are tiny ❤️ Glad they are doing well xxx

Pugprincess · 21/08/2020 11:54

Aunty @Northernsoul90 🥰

MrsK21 · 21/08/2020 12:25

Aww congrats on becoming an aunt again @Northernsoul90 hope your sis and baby are both doing well xxx

Lollol86 · 21/08/2020 12:28

@Northernsoul90 congratulations auntie, oh wow so tiny. Glad they are both doing well xx

Northernsoul90 · 21/08/2020 12:49

@Pugprincess @MrsK21 @Lollol86

Thank you 🥰 they are both doing well. I thought I might feel a little bit funny with all the new baby hype but turns out I'm the worst one for it and instantly rushed out to buy girl outfits and am demanding constant pics 😂. Over the moon xx

MichT4 · 21/08/2020 13:44

Congratulations on your niece @Northernsoul90 🥰🥰 xx

eclipsechips · 21/08/2020 13:46

@Northernsoul90 Congratulations Auntie!

eclipsechips · 21/08/2020 13:48

@VP91x we're going to sort out saving first as we were planning on a house move but I think we're both agreed to put that on hold just now.

eclipsechips · 21/08/2020 13:49

Thanks @MichT4 I'm still hoping that will we're sorting things out it'll happen naturally but I'm really glad we've got a plan for moving forward
