@Sausage1990 hope things got sorted for you today been thinking of you x

I've just done the bmi calculator on the NHS website and I need to lose at least 8 pounds to be in the "healthy weight" bracket. My OH is just in the "healthy weight" bracket at 10 stone 5 for a man ... seems mad

Also the bottom weight to still be a healthy weight at 5'4" is 7 stone 6 .... I was 8 stone 8 when I was 16 and looked like a stick

Hi all, just finished work, on the sex frequency I have to say when I was on the pill, half the time, I couldn't be arsed, and now DH doesn't know what hit him

Just looked back on femometer and my 72 day cycle had been classed as "ovarian dysfunction" 😬😬

Hey @runnergirl1 I've had a really emotional day today for so many reasons.

I did another test this morning and it's still giant positive so I called EPU & the nurse I've been in touch with said to wait until Friday and so it again. We think I passed the placenta on the Friday so I've still got a few days... I don't think it's going to make a huge difference tbh but you never know. Anyway I've got a scan booked with EPU at 2on Friday just incase so I don't have to wait until next week if it is still positive. She said if there's still product retained then they may give me some more meds to get the contractions/cramps going again, they may suggest surgery or (if its really small) they may just wait to see if it passes with the next period. So it's a wait & see situation.

Ive felt quite emotional today also because it was 1 month ago today we had our dating scan and found out that baby had died so that feels raw especially that this chapter is still ongoing and I'm still bleeding.

THEN to add an extra layer, our friends announced they're expecting baby number 2 in May 2021 today 😩 and it felt like a kick in the gut tbh. We would have been weeks apart, both with newborns in our friendship group and God the news hit me like a ton of bricks.😭

Today has been a shit show. And when I got home from work at 2pm I was talking to my SIL over watsapp and just sat there sobbing. I'm feeling better for having a good cry but god this is all too much to deal with in 1 week let alone 1 day. I'm done in today - F*cking exhausted.

Sorry didn't mean to go on such a long one 🙈

@Sausage1990 hugs and plenty of chocolate, a good cry does help when things are tough

@blodyn91 oooo how exciting for you about the auction, I have everything crossed for you 🤞🏻and good on you for the exercising, but then again you were mega fit to start with I think you had a better starting point than most of us 🤦🏼‍♀️😬

@Franklydear a lot of ppl say that about the pill specifically but a lot of contraception too

@lucyrp I'm not sure looking at the apps is the best thing for you!

@Sausage1990 oh lovely sausage I'm literally hugging you so hard right now. The thought of more meds and cramps I know must be hard enough alongside the month date, but then your friend 😔. I don't know how you are still working this week but I totally understand if you are able to focus on it even just slightly to take your mind away. Please stop apologising. There is no need. We know. We understand. We all want to hug you darling & hope it ends. Xxx😘we all love sausages here. Even the veggies I'm guessing. 🥰

So sorry @Sausage1990 you deserve a big old cry after that day! Does your friend know about your MC? 💛

@Ladybird345 so sorry!! Sending hugs❤️

@Sausage1990 don't apologise!! This is what we are here for!! I'm so so sorry you're going through this, it's hard enough someone announcing their pregnancy when you want it so bad, but someone announcing when you've been through what you have I can imagine will be heartbreaking, but just imagine how much you'll love that little baby when it happens for you❤️

@lucyrp I hope your sore nipples and huge tits result in a BFP!!!

Thanks ladies, your comments have meant a lot to me. I feel silly because so many of you have been through so much more than me but thought I would let you know what happened.
On a plus point I've saved myself some calories today to have some biscuits this evening which will make everything feel so much better.
@Minster2012 it's shocking the amount of ladies who go through a loss in some form, it's heartbreaking to hear the statistics 😔
@Sausage1990 just seen what's happened to you, so sorry for what you are going through. Truly hope you are okay xx

@notyetamumbuttrying hey, can I ask a question? Dh got a call from the gp today as his SA results are ready, but they asked him to book a non urgent telephone apt with a doctor to discuss it. Is this what your oh experienced? I guess I'm just wandering if that means there's something wrong...
also, he has to wait until the 10th! Which is SO frustrating as the results are ready!! Gahhh nhs

@Sausage1990 so sorry this is still on going for you. I was in the same situation and it lasted so long. Like I say you know what the outcome is and don’t want to prolong it as it plays hell with your mind. I’m so sorry my love hopefully Friday you can move on x

Ok, ladies, I have a mind fuck, and I know there’s no solution, but here it goes, I am cd 7, period ,completely finished, but I still have a bit of a tight stomach, that feels a bit crampy, a sort of nausea feeling and sore boobs, a bit sore pelvic area, now nothing of this is bothering me much, but wtf?

Just caught up with you all.

@Minster2012 I'm so glad you're going to be staying with us on here (as if we'd let you leave anyhow!) I know what you mean, some other threads are just so BORING. This one definitely tops them all, think I'm in it for the long run with you! And as for ttc, it is SO not the fairytale everyone talks about, I wish people were more open about it! If by the time I reach the 2 year ttc mark I'm definitely going to be expressing myself to the world in whatever way I can! People need to know. And it sounds ridiculous me even saying that as I've not ever even had the tiniest hint of a pregnancy yet! God knows I'll implode when I finally see that second line 🤯

@Sausage1990 i am so so sorry you're going through this. I can't imagine how that felt for you, take time to grieve and don't give up. I hope they sort everything for you quickly xxxx

@Ladybird345 hugs lovely x a good cry really helps sometimes, this is such a shit journey at times x

I told dh this and he sent me to hell, love you too

@Franklydear errrr you've eaten something dodgy and someone's been tweaking your nipples too hard?? 🤔

@Newbie0818 that's really frustrating for you 😬

@Minster2012 I haven’t been eating that much, that could be it... nipples, well blame dh... the rest?

@Newbie0818 I really hate it when they do that, just tell me now

@sausage1990 I am so so sorry for what you're going through. I really hope that they find a solution for you soon. Take some time for yourself if you can. Sending lots and lots of virtual cuddles. X

So going for dinner tomorrow with my sister and she's just text "are you going to tell me you're pregnant tomorrow??" I said whaaat no (she doesn't know we're TTC) and she was like ohh okay I just had a hunch, wish that hunch was like a psychic vision😂

@Vil10 hope your sister has premonitions

Thanks girls it's been a rough day... I know it will get better & we will have our happy ending eventually - we all will 🌈

@minster2012 thanks lovely I really appreciate the virtual hugs. Yeah I didn't know if work was the beat idea but given I cant actually do anything to change the outcome I'm better off in work keeping my mind busy. I've got a diabetes clinic tomorrow so that will keep me busy. Haha yes we all do enjoy Sausages, pork veggy or otherwise 🍆 Although when I chose the user name I didn't quite think of the potential innuendo side of things on a ttc thread 😂 it's actually part of my family nickname. My mum has called me sizzy sausage since I was a kid so it's stuck 😂

@runnergirl1 gosh yeah you had quite the long haul with your loss too didn't you. I'm sorry you had to go through that - it's a rough road. How long was it before yours was over? Did it take long for your cycles to come back afterwards?

@SarahTTC2020 no they didn't know about our mmc. They're our couple friends on DHs side, so the 4 guys are all old school friends and are still all super close so while we told 1 of the couples because I'm close with the wife too & we speak alot, we didn't tell the other 2 couples because DH just didn't want the fuss. As they are his friends I took his lead on it. We all deal with things our own way so didn't want to push him. I don't know if I'd prefer they know or not... We definitely won't tell them now until we're pregnant again. It would make them feel uncomfortable knowing how close their announcement was to our loss. Even though it's not their fault or anything.

@newbie0818 @Franklydear @ladybird345 💕 thanks girls

@vil10 yes it will be extra special when we all have our babies in our arms. This ttc journey is hard work but it will be worth it for us all in the end 💕

I've selfishly not contributed to anyone else's comments today - been in my bubble. I'll hopefully be feeling better tomorrow xx

@Sausage1990 ah ok well its just unlucky timing for them. I know some friends who I will try and tell sensitively who have fertility problems because she had told me before how hard it is to see pregnancy announcements

@Newbie0818 how irritating! If they have the results why make you wait nearly 2 weeks. Infuriating

@minster2012 those odds in the ivf group sound insane 🙊. Really depressing... I do hope Feb is the last bus you're ever gonna have to be on though ❤️. Pretty sure I'll keep you company until then!

@vil10 that text send a little stab through my heart, nevermind yours 😅

So OH got a call from the clinic about his SA today... To tell him the results are in but that he has to schedule a consultation first to actually hear them?! So we have to wait until Monday lol. Feel like that was poorly communicated/inefficient...

I kinda also feel like if the results were good they would have just said so? And the scheduled consultation is because there's something wrong. We'll see. @Newbie0818 any news on yours?
