Figured I'm not ready to let you ladies go ☺️

@Juno231 have you managed to get hold of anyone yet? I don't think it matters if it's by phone for the first one. They don't exactly do anything. I'm just hoping the rest of the tests aren't delayed because of restricting face to face things.

12dpo today. Tiny bit of brown spotting so far. Boobs been hurting the last 2 days. Nothing else to write home about. AF expected Sunday. I was a day out though last month so maybe Monday might be the day! 🙄🤣 The whole thing feels like groundhog day. This and the lockdown. Same old. 🙈

@paintfairy no tbh I gave it a rest after 3 calls lol. The ladies on the fertility app thread did mention that they took blood tests on the day and had the US on the spot too. I'm not worried about that tbh - I just want to know either way so I'm not traipsing to the hospital unnecessarily.

I hear you about groundhog day! I'm CD5 now, waiting for FW.. AGAIN! My period has been annoying again this cycle. Day 1 was light, day 2 spotting, day 3 nothing and then yesterday was full blown cramps and medium flow. Not sure what the situation is like today but I don't relish the thought of having gone from 2 day periods to 5 day ones in the past year!

@Juno231 what blood tests? Obviously it needs to be the right day for that? I can't really see them retaking mine. Not when they were only just literally done. They might but it seems silly. It's been over 3 months since the SA though so it'll be worth redoing that. I'm hoping they'll check I've got no blockages! We shall see. Probably do naff all and it'll be a waste of time. 🙄

@paintfairy I think theirs are a bit more extensive? Tbf the lady that said this was there pretty much on CD3 so would have made sense to take those then - but then you'd wonder about the US being done on her period... I'm thinking about calling my gp practice to book a chlamydia test in advance as you need to have one done before they book you in for an HSG/hycosy.

@Juno231 they already made me do a chlamydia, as you had to have it for the referral.

13dpo. Seems to be dragging this month! Maybe because I'm thinking about it more with the referral etc? Less spotting than usual which is good, but I can never seen to find a pattern to it. Wish I could! I'm trying seven seas so whether it's that, but likely random.

@paintfairy I'm sure it being a shitty January doesn't help take your mind off it either! When did spotting start this time? I really hope you'll be one of those f**kers that gets knocked up just before their fertility appointment. Said with much love!

@MrsTwentyEight have we missed your birthday already? Any plans?

CD6 - I think AF has finally stopped!

@Juno231 I had a tiny bit Tuesday night. And a bit on and off since. Mostly brown (some almost black). But it is more like spotting, as opposed to what I sometimes get, which is really bleeding more so than spotting, and does swap back and forth from being red too. Just never any pattern to it really. But for me it's a 'good' month. Usually I don't get any at all 12-24 hours before proper AF comes. I reckon it's due Sunday.

🤣 I hope i am too. Yet I'm not sure it'll go that way. Whole thing is pretty shit really, isn't it. Still struggle when people pop up and say they conceived on month 1 or 2. 😒
Any plans for your birthday?

@Juno231 happy birthday! 🥳🥳🥳

Sorry ladies been awol
Happy birthday @Juno231 !!
And yes my birthday was during my Covid saga 🤣
How's everyone ? AF over Juno so onto next cycle!
@paintfairy what's the latest ?
@MimiArm hope you're keeping well!

Cycle wise I have no idea where I'm at btw
I had the static smiley which disappeared after 48 hours then I had EWCM 4 days after it and I did another cb digital which was yet another static ...God knows 🤣 I could be 3DPO if I did OV! Gee thanks Covid 😞

@MrsTwentyEight you might get a few rises before the egg releases. I've found that after illness. So it might have happened the second time? Hope your birthday wasn't too bad if you were ill?

Me- I'm 14dpo i think today. So expecting AF tomorrow or Monday. Still only had very light spotting and it stayed dark in colour. Boobs been hurting the last few days, but some months they do. Last night I did feel ill in the middle of the night, but I dunno if it was what I ate? Woke up really really hot. Felt sick. Bad pain in stomach and bad wind. Actually thought i was going to be sick. But it passed and I have felt OK since. I did have a weird stomach thing last month though a few days before AF (didn't feel sick though), so whether its going to be a new unwelcome symptom each month, i don't know. 🙄

@paintfairy that would make sense actually! In that case I hope it was the second time as we DTD on that day and a few days later but who even knows anymore!
Oooo all of those sound interesting! But like you say, everything could be a symptom but also couldn't be. Will you test tomorrow if AF hopefully doesn't show up?

@MrsTwentyEight no. I did that last time and just ended up disappointed. As AF just came a day late. 🤣 So I'm not falling into that trap again!

@paintfairy @MrsTwentyEight @Juno231

Hi ladies. Hope you're all well. Happy birthday @Juno231 !

I had my follow up scan tonight and the sac has grown a lot and the consultant could see the yoke and fetal pole. He kept switching between internal and belly scans as he said I have a tiled uterus and the sac is in an awkward position that it's making it really hard for him to see. He said I was measuring 6+6/7 weeks today. He also said he thinks he could pick up heartbeat but it's just hard for him with the awkward positioning.

So, he concluded that he was very pleased with the progress and we are back again in two weeks for another follow up scan.

@paintfairy here's hoping AF doesn't show for you.

@MrsTwentyEight That's good you're getting static smileys, even if you got two. Hopefully you're covered anyways!

@MimiArm wahoo! How many weeks did you think you were?

@paintfairy I would have thought I was over 8 now. I think I'm just measuring behind because of the tilted womb. I got my faint BFP on 22 December and, at best case, I could have been say 9 DPO. So the dates just don't add up really!

I've read that titled womb can make the dating 2 weeks behind. I guess time will tell!

@MimiArm to be honest- i think they are never spot on anyway. Lots of people say they are out with dates (because if you track, you do know). So I wouldn't worry about it. That's why I find it daft they induce too. I know many people who they've been told the baby is older or too big and when it comes out, it's not at all. And I've known massive babies appear when they had no idea they were big. 🤣

@paintfairy that's very true. By the time I'm
Further along, my scans could catch up in the dating department as well. For now I'm just relieved it's not an empty sac as all I've done is google "blighted ovum" since the last scan!

@MimiArm 🤣 I knew it would be fine. I think it's natural to worry though unless you know for sure things aren't OK. I dunno. We go through months/years stressing about ttc. Then 9 months worrying about pregnancy. And after that you can stress about everything your kid is doing. 😂 We are doing this because....... 😆

@MimiArm wooop I'm so glad it's all fine! How exciting ❤️. Can't wait to find out if it's a little boy or girl you're having.

@paintfairy I'm so hopeful for you this cycle

@MrsTwentyEight I'm sorry covid ruined an already shitty birthday 🤣 I hope you did ovulate that second time though, what dpo would take make you today?

Cd7, spotting still! Birthday has been lovely though considering. I have had so many flowers etc delivered and gone for a long walk around Wimbledon village, pizza for dinner and lots of wine. Wine after 3 weeks of dry Jan has been glorious!

@Juno231 omg. I've realised I haven't even drank for mine! 🤣 Not even now it's the weekend. Rubbish. I'm glad you had a decent day! Never easy this month! Oh and my prediction @MimiArm is having a boy. 💙 🤣

CD1 for me 🙄

@paintfairy

CD1 for me 🙄

Sorry @paintfairy 😫

@paintfairy ah I'm so sorry ☹️ if that doesn't warrant alcohol I don't know what does.

I agree, I think mimiarm is having a boy too!

@MrsTwentyEight @Juno231 Twatty AF. And yeah I should have alcohol! Yet still haven't. 🤣
I just get angry. DH - pisses me off. He stays out my way, but I really just want a hug!
