TTC November Bus

Hi loves,
I'm out of the game for the Oct bus so I thought I'd kick off November bus early so people can join if AF rears her ugly head.
Brief summary of me - TTC since Jan, mc in Sept, just finished first period after d&c and ready to get pregnant already!
I've got a 4yr old ds and really hoped to be pregnant right now so pretty fed up with the whole process but trying to keep positive. IT WILL HAPPEN.
Sending baby dust to everyone! Summer babes for us all round Smile

@mommyofone2019 I'm going to do my best to wait until 12 DPO to test, let's see how that goes! Lol when are you thinking of testing ?

Dogmum13 · 11/11/2020 22:14

@Ells19962000 congratulations 🙂

@SunnydazeQ Evening Primrose oil is supposed to help relieve painful boobs xx

Congratulations @Ells19962000

I’m 6dpo and feel the same as every other month. Ugh.

mommyofone2019 · 11/11/2020 22:28

@ACNass with my 1st I got a bfp on cd10. So I'm going to hold out until then!

Ells19962000 · 11/11/2020 22:51

@namechangeTTC keep hoping!! It's not over until AF. How long have you been TTC?

MamaPheebz · 11/11/2020 23:02

I’m on 10dpo tomorrow (i think) and going to give in and test. Should I get an accurate result by then?

I’m on CD 36 tomorrow.

Dogmum13 · 12/11/2020 00:00

@gracie2307 how are you feeling? I have sore boobs but always get that 🙄

NamechangeTTC · 12/11/2020 06:14

@Ells19962000 since March but with a gap due to covid and work. So cycle 5.

SunnydazeQ · 12/11/2020 07:10

Congratulations @Ells19962000!! Lovely news!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I know what you mean about being terrified now you know :) Just enjoy each day as it comes. Xx

SunnydazeQ · 12/11/2020 07:13

Hi @Dogmum13 How are you doing? I think your comment for me about primrose oil might have been for someone else. X

SunnydazeQ · 12/11/2020 07:32

@MgW1 here's hoping that rainbow baby shows up this cycle.xx

I had the strangest thing happen to me yesterday. The biggest clot ever, sorry ladies. The last time I had this was in June but it happened the first day of my period and I was sure it was a miscarriage. Yesterday was CD3 for me and didn't expect to see one that big. Even my husband made the connection. Has this happened to anyone else? My cycles are very regular so wondering now if this could've been another MC. I also had little stabbing pains on the right pelvic area which happened an hour after passing the clot and was on and off a little while. Will see if I can a GP app today but thought I'd see if anyone else experienced anything similar.

MgW1 · 12/11/2020 07:35

@SunnydazeQ
Did yoi have d&c with mc in june ? X

SunnydazeQ · 12/11/2020 07:59

@MgW1 no in June I only suspected might be a miscarriage, wasn't confirmed. In Sep I was 5W5D when I started bleeding. The midwife told me to take a couple more pregnancy tests and contact my local EPC. The tests were negative and the matron at the EPC said sounds like an early MC and unfortunately nothing they can do. I did have a normal period last month though so no idea what's going on with my body. I googled clots and PCOS, fibroids, pregnancy loss were some of the reasons for them. I don't have any of the symptoms for any of those except I'm TTC so could be pregnancy loss. Will see what GP says if I get an app. X

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 08:34

Hey @Dogmum13 how are you? I am 8DPO today. Have had cramps a few days ago and headaches, but now subsided. I dont have anything else symptom wise. But I'm being super good, haven't broken out the tests which I normally do from 8DPO. Ah bless you, hope you are ok? When will you start testing? Xx

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 08:36

Hey @SunnydazeQ how are you? Oh no, that clot sounds awful Im sorry you had to go through that... definitely worth checking with your GP. I hope they can provide some more answers for you 🙏 xx

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 08:38

Hey @Sunflowers81 how are you? Hows your DH? How are you feeling? Haha yes we need to set the club up! My throw is a dark grey to match my living room Grin how are the socks coming along? Xx

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 08:39

Congratulations @Ells19962000!! 👏 lovely news xx

Sunflowers81 · 12/11/2020 10:14

Thank you @SunnydazeQ, that’s a lovely way of looking at it 💖
Oh no, sorry to hear about the huge clot! Do you ever get those normally?

Huge congratulations @Ells19962000 🎉
Thank you for sharing your symptoms, that is really helpful.

Congratulations @rusticpink too! 🎉

Hey @gracie2307 I’m feeling fine thank you, My partner is getting better thank you. The doctors scared the crap out of us yesterday, they rang him and said oh be careful around days 8 to 10 as you can get worse, we can lend you an oxygen monitor if you need it! I’ve told him to not think about that, let’s stay positive that he will continue to recover.
How are you? Your throw sounds so lovely!

I’m a bit gutted today, my partner and I were buying a house together; we’d had our offer accepted and have just been waiting on the one we are in now, which is mine, to sell. Unfortunately mine has been on the market for 3.5 months and hasn’t sold yet, so the person we are buying from has, understandably, said they are going to look for another buyer. It was a part buy part rent one, but housing association, which meant that the rent on the part we didn’t own was hugely subsidised, only £30 a month! In the area we live in this would usually be £300 - £500 per month, on top of a mortgage. I’d been on the waitlist for 9 years. And I can’t even go out for a walk in the sunshine to destress! I did an online boxing class which helped, and found a box of milk tray in the cupboard, so had some of those!
Hopefully this means something better is waiting for us. 🌟

MgW1 · 12/11/2020 10:41

@SunnydazeQ
I have googled all that because mine have been painful and heavy since miscarriage!! It could be related to sept , body might bot pf got rid of it last month but its good it has come away now hun , you prob have a better chance of conceiving now xxx

SRyellow · 12/11/2020 10:58

Hi everyone -5dpo and continuing to drive myself mad looking for some kind of symptoms or signs!! Does anyone know when lh tests would pick up a positive if pregnant? Would it be this early?

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 11:24

Hey @SRyellow hope you are ok? According to my Fertiltiy Friends app, the data they have on when people can start to get faint positive OPKs is from 9DPO onwards but it is quite early and depends on the person/brand of pregnancy test. FRER are one of the better brands for picking up low levels of LH. Hope that helps? Xx

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 11:25

Sorry @SRyellow I meant HCg lol not LH xx

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 11:29

@SRyellow Dont worry, I am going mad too. I am 8DPO and normally I would be cracking the tests straight out, but really trying to be good this month and wait till at least 1 day before AF. But its a killer lol xx

SRyellow · 12/11/2020 12:04

@gracie2307 thanks Gracie, I think I just need to stop thinking about it but it’s easier said than done! You’re doing well, not long to go and you will hopefully get a nice clear result! It just feels like the longest wait x

gracie2307 · 12/11/2020 12:11

Sorry @SRyellow I realised I put OPKs instead of pregnancy tests in my first message 🤪 I did mean pregnancy tests lol! Clearly my brain isn't functioning well without coffee 🙃 🤣 I feel you, its so hard especially when you are spotting signs. How are you feeling today? The 2ww is like being in the ninth circle of hell sometimes. Im hoping my willpower will last. Its more to stop me fretting, last month I was testing loads and seeing BFN after BFN really got to me. Now I am trying to be more pragmatic but its hard. Xx
