@RichmondLady1981i know! From what I’ve read there’s no danger of taking them anyway. I’ll
Continue til I can speak to a midwife about it

Got a positive OPK today :-) So excited!

Woohoo @anon0704 you know what you need to do! 😉

Enjoy @anon0704 😉

The afternoon one is even darker. Holy heck!

Hey guys. Just wanted to come on here to say I've had a cb flashing smiley yday(cd13) and today(cd14) and thats like way before my previous cycle where my peak was on cd22. Any thoughts

Hey @Furbsies perhaps it’s still your cycles getting back into sync? How many cycles are you post MC again (sorry, I get so confused with everyone’s all merging). Xx

@HappyVibes this is my 5th cycle, but it has been 6 months, in the cycle i got pg, i wasnt opking but i was tracking via app, i would have ovulated on cd21

i think i am just getting frustrated by the difference in each cycle now.

Ah it is hard isn’t it trying to familiarise ourselves with changes in cycles post MC. The main thing is, that you have identified and not missed the peak - bet you are so relieved that you’ve been tracking wary on. Girl you know what to do. Good luck 💓💫

@Furbsies I'm sure it's as @HappyVibes says and your cycle is adjusting. Frustrating isn't it! Mine has fluctuated by several days since mc, but keeping an eye on cm really helped clue me in to what was happening when. Xx

Well I've kept my promise to my OH and not tested till now - we are doing it together on the weekend. But with no AF at 13dpo, near-constant constipation, and I've started waking up for no reason at 4am - my mind has somehow gone 'yep, you're pregnant' and that's how I'm thinking of myself, even though I haven't had it confirmed with a test. It was the waking up at 4 that did it, because that happened with my previous pregnancy and is totally unheard of for me. So, daring to hope, and hoping it's not in vain?

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend! X

I was lying here thinking that 13dpo didn't sound right, so I went back on my Clue app and looked back through my tracking - and it turns out I tracked ovulation on Nov 9th, putting me at 18dpo! 😱 So I suppose that must be a flaw in how Clue operates... In that as your cycle drags on, it keeps readjusting estimated ovulation day, even when you've tracked it! Got to keep an eye out for that! Xx

@susiebluebell oooo so you are really late now then?! Get testing lol 😆. With you on the waking up. I’m up now having just cleaned/tidied/put dishwasher and washing machine on 😅 (washing machine in conservatory away from neighbours so won’t bother anybody) xx

Ah @susiebluebell everything about your message sounds very very very hopeful. I would be getting so excited if I was you at this stage. I am very impressed by your self control of not testing, that’s so good! Fingers crossed, good luck...I feel like we already know it’s going to be a BFP! Woohoo...keep us updated please 💓💓💓

Just catching up on the thread, wow a lot has happened!
Congrats to everyone who got a bfp.

@susiebluebell good luck with the testing today - it sounds very positive! Fingers crossed for you!

I’m 9dpo today but started spotting this morning - I felt really dizzy and sick yesterday and got my hopes up, but for nothing!

Aww @familybythesea could the spotting perhaps be implantation? Xxx

@HappyVibes and @susiebluebell thank you ladies

@susiebluebell so excited for you test. I would not be able to wait for OH till 18dpo.

@HappyVibes I guess it’s not impossible, but I caved and did a FRER (after promising myself I wouldn’t test until Monday at the earliest!) and it was negative. I never learn!

@HappyVibes also how are you doing after last month lovely? I think I convinced myself I’d be extra fertile this month because that’s what they say - but then it hasn’t been the case before so goodness knows why I keep believing that!

@familybythesea if it is implantation, then it would be way to early for an FRER to pick it up anyway lovely - so ignore the test for now, as even at 9DPO, it’s still very early too and very low chances of being picked up so early. So I don’t think you’re fully out just yet lovely. Unless you’re confident it’s full flow AF?

I’m doing okay thank you doll. Had my whimper and my woe is me moment at the beginning of the cycle when we had the CP. But now got back on my positivity saddle and galloping along ha. I’m just in a phase where I’m feeling a bit numb to it all, so very much of the thinking now that it’ll be when it’ll be. Rather than being convinced etc...sure that’ll change at diff points of my cycle ha. Xxxx

Thanks everyone, I'm very hopeful too, but it's not self-control that's kept me from testing, it's fear haha!

We are testing tomorrow morning when OH is here - he works away part of the week. Hope everybody's having an OK start to the weekend? Xx

@familybythesea Yes 9dpo is far too early for an accurate test! At that stage it's more likely to be implantation spotting than AF, though of course you know your body best 😚😚 Fingers, toes and legs crossed! Xx

Thank you @HappyVibes and @susiebluebell - I’d say it’s a bit heavier than spotting now, and only a day early so perhaps it was either implantation gone wrong (I had a bit of brown spotting and dizzy/sick yesterday but redder today). Bit disappointed as it’s coming round to a year since conceiving for my first miscarriage and I had another miscarriage last month, plus two chemical pregnancies, so getting a bit worn out from it al!
But still, I’ll try jump on the positivity saddle too :)
Thanks ladies xx

Afternoon ladies, I just slipped and fell on some mossy wooden steps and banged my tailbone and middle back, and I'm worried it's going to affect the possible baby! 😫 I'm fine, was winded and in pain for a few minutes and might have a bruise. I've been reading about falla and slips in early pregnancy and the consensus seems to be that the baby is really well protected inside the pelvic bones at the moment and there's nothing to worry about unless you yourself are seriously injured. Which I'm not. But if this turns into a chemical or another miscarriage, I'm going to be devastated and blame it on this! 😔 Any words of sanity or similar experiences? Xx

Thanks everyone for nice welcome! and congrats @MSG92 on your BFP :) and so quickly after a MC too, best of luck for everything going well this time :)
Awww ouch @susiebluebell hope you're ok, sounds painful. Definitely think you'll be ok at this stage, but can imagine u being worried.
i'm still waiting for first AF after our miscrriage, had cramps mid week but theyve gone now and no sign of AF so goodness knows whats going on, dont usually get cramps beforehand but guess anything and everything will happen this time as it'll be a bit messed up!
hope everyone else is doing ok!
