Happy New TTC Bus - Jan 2021 - it's going to be a corker!

[BubsNumber2inTheMaking]

Thought I'd kick this off...

CD 7 for me following 2nd mc 🤦🏼‍♀️ Ready to kick the new year off with a bang (not literally, sorry husband), and get a blimin bun in the oven already!
Come on ladies, let's get each other through this. BFP's coming our way soon I just know it 😘💪🙌xx

@Sar1010 that's really good to hear! I mean I know our bodies are all different, but I'm feeling down today about the bfn, so any good news I'll take. AF needs to hurry up now (never thought I'd say that!)

@Mgw1 I had the Pfizer vaccine earlier this week, even if I'm bfp this month when I had it I technically wasn't pregnant and would be awhile before it would likely affect anything. The risks of the vaccine outweigh the risk of catccatching covid and potentially suffering from ramifications the rest of my life

@MgW1 my chemical pregnancy effected my cycles more than my MMC. It was so frustrating. Can you call the doctors and maybe request the check your bloods for HCG levels? That really does look like you are pregnant. X

[quote MgW1]@purplepoppet92
Yes good idea , i just want it out the way , is it pfizer or oxford ? X[/quote]
From reading around it I would prefer Pfizer but I don't actually know which I will be getting! Do you?x

@purplepoppet92
Less side effects with oxford but not as much protection. Prob best to go for pfizer and then if you get preg before booster then you can be reassured that you are still well protected ? Achey arm and headaches for a few days is what my colleagues have said xx

@MamaPheebz
Yes well i will see how i get on over weekend and go on monday if nothing, looks like im 1 day late. Did the vitamins effect your cycle at all? X

I had one really long cycle after my chemical loss (i really hate that term but anyway...) I started my pregnacare conception vitamins at the same time and wondered if it was because of those but I returned to my 28 day cycle the month after so i think it was the MC. X

Hmmm I’m 11dpo been having ridiculous dizzy spells today almost like the room was spinning all day!! And now just like magic they’re gone. Hated feeling dizzy but now hating not feeling dizzy.
Just told my OH this and he thinks I’m absolutely crazy 😂
I mean this is definitely a crazy journey isn’t it ... anyone else feeling slightly crazy? C’mon make me feel sane 😂🙌🏻

Definitely crazy over here! 🤣

Haha @Sar1010 definitely crazy here too 🤪🤪🤪
That's exciting about the dizziness! That was my first proper symptom with my ds. Keeping fingers crossed for you!xx

@MamaPheebz phew! Good to know I’m not alone! 👍😂 how’s sticky bean??

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking oh really?! That is good to know. Thank you! I’m really holding off testing until the last minute but I think it’s making me hyper alert of the ever changing symptoms! Hence the craziness...
How’s everything with you? Where are you in the cycle? 💜

@Sar1010 ok I hope. I haven’t really got any strong symptoms now the implantation cramping is finish. Just hope for some morning sickness soon lol.
When are you going to test? X

@MamaPheebz Monday is when AF is due so I’m trying to wait till then. I had a chemical in June which I wouldn’t have known about if I hadn’t tested early... and I’d swore to myself I wouldn’t do that again. But I’m so so tempted right now! Part of me things even if it’s CP again atleast I’d have known... hmm so torn!

Hopefully they’ll kick in soon for you💜 such an intense experience this isn’t it xx

I posted and then disappeared because I was pretty sure I was out this month and was feeling disappointed.
AF was due this morning (normally really consistent) but no sign at all. Took a cheapie test - it’s either a squinter or I’m seeing things???? Not said anything to DH, will retest tomorrow.

@InTheLibrary
Upload your squinter. I am 1 day late and i have had a faint line forna few days but i dont know if i am going crazy

Only 8dpo today and keep telling myself to wait. I'm like a kid only 2 more sleeps till I can test. Bloody annoying!

I'm out ladies , AF reared her ugly head this morning at 14dpo . I stopped testing a few cycles ago because I still hold out hope until AF arrives anyway. Had a wee cry but onto cycle #5 and the next bus! just baffled at how quickly other women get pregnant at this point. Fingers crossed for all the ladies still in the ring x

Hi @Sar1010 I'm ok thanks. Only 4dpo I think. Was convinced I wasn't going to ovulate this month due to cp last month and only got 1 day of peak opk, but I've had a temp change so I'm hopeful. At least if i DID ovulate, I know we dtd at the right time. And I guess that's all I can do!
I saw your note about having a CP and therefore don't want to test so just thought I'd say last month I had a positive test at 10dpo - quite bold, not even a squinted. Then tested again 5 days later when period due and it was as bold as you can get. Then mc a week later at 5weeks...Technically still counts as a chemical I think as the mc was like a heavy period and very early only 5wks. I guess my point is just that it can fail whenever. Not sure it makes much difference if you know about it or not! AF is disappointing either way! 🤣 Personally I'll continue to test early as I'd rather know and I'll drive myself crazy in the wait anyway! 🤪 But totally respect the women that are able to just wait and see! I'm too impatient! 🤦🏼‍♀️x

Here it is @MgW1

I just went to the bathroom and there was a little blood - so who knows! AF? Implantation? Chemical Pregnancy?

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking very very true! Good point. I think for me it was slightly different.. It was cycle #1 of ttc and I woke up with strange shooting pains in my legs, went to the hospital, they did a pregnancy test that came back positive and then two days later AF came. It was a whirlwind and I just swore I’d always wait til AF hasn’t arrived.
I totally totally get why others test early!! Especially now.. After 6 months of no symptoms and no glimmers of hope I am so desperate to test, just to know if the symptoms are Pregnancy! Might speak to the OH and see how he feels about testing early.

Great to hear about your ovulation!! Sounds promising 🧡💜

@ZiggyStardustt sorry to hear that! Yes a good cry and then prep for the next cycle helps me... sometimes a very small wine too!!

I’m “Still in the ring” for now 😬

@Sar1010 ooo shooting pains in legs sounds scary! I guess there's no way of knowing but maybe that was an ectopic? 🤷‍♀️🤔 Either way, a horrible experience and having hopes go up and down like that is miserable 😞 Can totally understand just not wanting to. Keeping my fingers crossed for you for this cycle! 🤞💜

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking haha very very true , i drive myself crazy without testing anyway. There's definitely no right or wrong - it's torture either way.

@Sar1010 definitely a small wine, I'm was trying dry January but that's cancelled tonight . So glad to hear it , fingers crossed for you , we need some more good news x

Sorry to hear AF reared her ugly head for you today @ZiggyStardustt 😞xxx
YES that totally sums it up - torture either way! 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️
Enjoy that glass of wine! You deserve it. Feck dry jan - lockdown life has different rules anyway! The only thing about AF I don't don't mind is that she always turns up with a bottle in her hand 😄xx

That's me out this month! AF has arrived 😢

Onto cycle #15
