TTC November Bus

[Bmeggar]

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

@Cienega thank you!! Eeeek so exciting I'm hoping it progresses I'm gonna take one more before bed lol! I'll order a frer to take in a couple days time

@Markygirl1995 Oh I'm so excited for you! Keep us updated!!

@Cienega I will do however I'm now concerned that the line has faded more so you can hardly see I guess lines fade more early on from what I googled

Hmmm I think taking what came up in the first 5-10 mins is more reliable than afterwards. Even if another test showed negative, at 6dpo you still have lots of time for a positive. I've been testing since 8dpo and I really wish I hadn't. My body is telling me I'm pregnant but every time I got a bfn I was so confused and deflated until the next symptom gave me hope, it's been a vicsious circle like that, I wish I had just waited to see if AF came!! 🙈

@MgW1 yes my consultant told me to take it to ease painful boobs years ago xx

Tested with fmu and no line 🤔 very strange still getting cramps too more in the evening

This is what I got unless I've got major line eyes I feel I can see something super light but unsure because it's also really early

@Markygirl1995 I can see something in that test x

Hey @SRyellow how are you? Sorry for my late reply. Yesterday wasnt great tbh, I felt so emotional and had terrible cramps on my left hand side and cried for most of the day. My hormones/anxiety is all over the shop. I caved and I did a test this morning. Nothing. 10DPO today, AF due in a few days. Im scared this is all just PMS related 😫 How are you? How are you feeling? Sorry for my emotional ranting lol.Xxx

@Emc16x
That happened to me the last 2 months so I stopped buying clear blue. I was getting high results and even got a false peak but ovulated really late (confirmed with normal cheap opk).
I did a test this morning at 12dpo and it was negative. I keep thinking there is a mark on it where the line shows but i have serious line eyes. From what I’ve seen, 12dpo would show a faint but clear positive so just counting myself out now. Won’t be TTC for the next 2 months which is a bit of a bummer!
I hope you get your peak soon. I’d just dtd every other day if I was you xx

@gracie2307 sorry to hear you had a bad day, I understand how you feel though. It makes me so anxious - 10dpo is still early though and cramps might not mean AF. Stay positive, it will happen, i know that doesn’t always make you feel better when you really want it and your ready, but even if AF comes - next cycle means another chance. Did you do SMEP this month?
I’ve been up and down, 7dpo now, temps have been above average for 7 days but I guess that doesn’t confirm much. Only things I’ve noticed, very minor cramps 5dpo, increased cm (which probably isn’t uncommon before AF) and a slightly unusual pressure feeling in lower belly - also had the odd back tingle but I’m probably hyper analysing! X

@Theawkwardblonde I came off the depo injection September 2019 so dtd unprotected since then. However as we weren’t falling...I started opks and tracking in May 2020. So not long but enough for a referral to the hospital.

@MamaPheebz sorry it was negative. I’m guessing it was an early detection test?

I’m the same for the next two months. We move in with my parents next week until end of February...hopefully 2021 will be the year for us!

Yeah it’s happened with clear blue quite a lot. The only time I’ve ever got a peak is when I was drinking heavily the night before. So I feel like it’s never true...it’s just weird I get peak when I’ve got alcohol in my system. Do you mind me asking how late you did ovulate? I’m still holding out hope. Xx

@Bmeggar yes I remember you saying now. I caved and did a frer today (11dpo) and as usual bfn. I'm just void of all feelings around it now. DH and I have already had the conversation on if we would go through ivf/adoption and it's a no on both counts.
Sounds a bit dramatic we've already discussed this but I'm a planner lol. I like knowing what my options are before I need them.
I've been off contraception since April 2019.
I'm just getting so mad at people who are pregnant. I have 2 friends pregnant and I've had to say I can't be around them at the moment. All they do is twist about being pregnant and I'm sat thinking "shut up! You don't know how lucky you are!"

Thank you all for you lovely comments and advice @Sunflowers81 @MgW1 @SRyellow @gracie2307 @Dogmum13 @Bmeggar @SarahMumof1DS @Cienega I took Bmeggar's advice and rang back my doctor to ask for a referral and he agreed. He said the miscarriage unit (name?) will contact me so we'll see. For now we'll continue trying. Last month was the first time what I consumed was on point for egg quality so hubby and I decided we're going to give it our all this month. 🤞

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. We're back to upcycling things in our house. Upcycling an ottoman at the moment then we're painting the cupboards in one of our guest bedrooms. Lockdown has really improved our house lol

@Markygirl1995 I see it too!! Def get that FRER and let us know how you get on!! 🤞 Exciting xx

Hi @gracie2307 how are you today? I got my book yesterday and very excited to start reading but will wait closer to TWW. I managed to get an accupuncture session this afternoon so lookong forward to relaxing later. Have a wonderful weekend xx

Thank you for your message @SRyellow 💛 I know there's still a chance, I will try to keep the faith. Just had a rubbish week with work and I think that was the straw that broke the camels back really. Not officially followed SMEP but our DTD pattern is not too dissimilar this month to what they recommend. Ooh those tingling feelings sound quite positive? Do you find temping easy to track? I tried for the first time this month, however, I'm a bit of a erratic sleeper and I found my waking up times challenging as I get up several times in the night and it really messes with my temps xx

Hey @SunnydazeQ how are you? Im glad your doctor has agreed to refer you to the MC unit. Hopefully they will have some answers for you soon! 💛 Thank you for your message, have been a bit of an emotional mess the last few days - mainly work pressures which are fine to deal with normally, but my god, I've been crying at the drop of a hat this week! Had my accupuncture this morning and feel a bit better for it. All week I've had intermittent dull cramps moving from predominantly the left side now today its all on the right, its so confusing, no idea what it is 🙈 I will be fine, just need to tell my hormones to get a grip lol and stop being scared incase its all PMS and accept what will be will be. Anyway I'll stop rambling lol Yay I'm so glad you got the book!! 😀 let me know what you think? I hope you have a wonderfully relaxing weekend and enjoy your accupuncture! Xxx

@gracie2307 it doesn’t help when work gets stressful and when there’s other things going on, it all feels a lot!
I find the temping helpful and pretty accurate, I do sleep well though and then just do it as soon as I wake up. It does make me a bit anxious in the morning as a drop tends to mean AF. I’ve had more dull pms like cramps this afternoon, trying to keep thinking positive but I’m not sure if I’d still have cramps now. x

@SunnydazeQ the upcycling sounds nice! One good thing about lockdown is getting a bit more time to sort the house out! x

I’ve just had acupuncture too! Cramping, blocked nose and very thirsty. Song with sore boobs my body is continuing to play games with me.

@SunnydazeQ
Its sounds like your a bit more positive about things and its good that your G.P has referred you. Sounds like your busy with your little furniture projects..... iv just dragged some xmas decorations down! Few more bits to get and then they maybe able to go up next weekend!
Got a hangover booked for tomorrow a.m..... bonkfest next week 🤣🤣 xxx

Anyone see a line on this one? I'm gonna take another tonight when home from work

Internet cheapy today. I did a first response two days ago so going to try one of those on Monday if AF doesn’t arrive.
The tests I did today and yesterday have now got darker lines on them. Do you reckon they are evap lines because they’ve showed after the 3 minutes. X

@MamaPheebz that was moments after this morning

I'm off the November bus girls 😭 AF arrived today again. Onto cycle 9. Think we are going to enquire about some private initial fertility tests just to check everyhing is ok, would rather know now that say another 4 months of BFNs !? Xx
