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

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking yeah I've had a negative test, and no positive ovulation tests! I thought I had a few signs around CD17ish but no positive OPKS so I think it's just me being hopeful? I'm also scared I won't ovulate this month and it's going to be such a long process! :(

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking thank you. Fingers crossed for you too soon xx

@PrettyPinkPansies I know exactly how you feel but you just have to think that your body needs to recover so it doesn't fail next time. Once it's ready, you will ovulate 🤗 But I know how you feel. Just gotta trust the process and keep optimistic xx
How far along we're you with the mmc?x

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking I hope that is sooner rather than later, this is taking over my life day by day! I was nine weeks but I had a feeling something was off from around 6 weeks when the weeks indicator on the clear blue tests didn't go up. Tests, hospital visits and scans for three weeks over Christmas and no one knew if baby was okay or not. Eventually bleeding started on its own. The sac was continuing to grow but baby wasn't developing, so my HCG was rising but not appropriately. I think the size of the sack only got to about 6 weeks even though my dates had me at nine x

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking haha snap!

@PrettyPinkPansies keep the faith!!

@PandaFamilyDS was it conceive plus the tablet or the lube? Or Both? So happy for you!

Thank you lovely! @BubsNumber2inTheMaking 💕

@Sar1010 oops it was the conceive plus lube, sorry I should have been more specific🙈 Thank you so much x

@PandaFamilyDS & @LauraDanxx big congratulations to you both!! Xx

@PrettyPinkPansies that was very similar to me. Had a d&c at 9 weeks but bubs was measuring just over 7weeks. The cycle directly after the mc was only 24days (instead of 30) and I don't think I ovulated. The next cycle was 34 days which drove me nuts and I did a load of pregnancy tests as couldn't work out what was happening (all negative)...so wasn't sure if I ovulated that month or if I just ovulated really late and missed it. Got pregnant the next month and everything looked really good. Had a few symptoms, really bold pregnancy test line etc but mc at just over 5weeks. That was on Christmas Day. Gearing up for a period now, think it's coming today. So although I'm disappointed, I'm also hopeful that Feb could be a really fertile month 🤞
I know it's hard to not let these things take over your life but ultimately we can only try and do what we can. I still get down about it some days but I know I can't hurry things and stress can really effect fertility, so I'm trying to be fated about it. When it's right, it WILL happen. And bubs will be healthy and in my arms soon. Keep the faith xxx

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking aw bless your heart. It's horrible when it's over Christmas And things. I'm praying you get your bfp this month!! I FINALLY got thay static smiley today on after 10 days of flashing! So I'm keeping my fingers crossed this means I'll ovulate. I've wore poor hubby out this month 😂😂

Massive congratulations @PandaFamilyDS and @LauraDanxx

Fingers crossed for some more BFP in Feb!

@PrettyPinkPansies Ahh thanks lovely. Yay to static smiley! I know what you mean about wearing hubby out! I think we dtd 9days out of 11 last month and were totally ready to stop by the end! 💤 💤
Sending you lots of luck for this cycle. Keeping my fingers crossed xx

We're on 12 days and counting 😂 I don't want to miss my chance!! Good luck to you too lovely, hopefully you get your positive ❤️

@PrettyPinkPansies blimey 12days! You deserve a rest! 🤣

This chat has all gone a bit quiet now. I'm guess it's because majority have either got AF or BFP now. My period is still 'brewing'. Had a few days of brown spotting which seems to be the norm for me after a mc, but I'm really keen to get full flow heavy period now! Does anyone else find there is a bit of a release/relief once in full flow? It definitely always makes me feel better when I have it. I guess the hormones drop at that point. The days before my period are always really jittery and full of anxiety (even not when ttc) then I feel much calmer when AFs here!

Anyway, will kick off a new month chat soon. I'm determined that Feb is going to be my month - pregnant with a sticky bean and landing one of the roles in my redundancy consultation. PMA! 🤗xx

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
Keep me in the loop if you move to another thread! 😉
CD15 and cycle 7 for me. We're not using OPKs this month to reduce anxiety & it deffo has been helping 😌
Not looking forward to the TWW.

Completely agree on the AF thing. Day 24 - Day 1 are a bit miserable with cramps, PMS and general exhaustion & insomnia, but by day 2 I'm back in the swing of things & feeling much better,

Hope Feb is your month, sounds like you've had a rough ride.

Xx

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking

I’m still waiting for my first post pill stopping period! 🙄 xx please include me in feb thread

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking hope you're okay and you get one of them roles!! I've got a few cramps today, not sure if that's normal for around ovulation? I got a peak on a clear blue yesterday x

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking I'm 2dpo so just starting the tww 😬 fed up already lol

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking I'm still here 😅 12 DPO, no symptoms, nada

I'm CD 13 was really hoping for a good February but my OH's dad is now having to stay with us which has certainly disrupted things!

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking
Hiw are you doing ? Did you get work stuff sorted out? Im cd 13 , prob ovulate at some point at the weekend. I dont knownif i ovulated after my chemical either, apparently its not uncommon but didnt use opks so really dont know xx

Can anyone tell me what day 21 bloods test for exactly? Is it just to see if you ovulate?

So AF was due on Saturday (CD24) and now we are CD28 and no period. I've had no true spotting (clean when wipe etc) but if I push some tissue in (sorry guys) its tinged with brown. Not full AF iyswim. Started off as slight pink tinge CD22 but not started, feels like the mother of Af is on her way. This is unusual for me. BFN on ICs since CD18 (think ovulation was around CD10). I do have Covid (despite having the vaccination this month too) do you think that's playing a role? I just want AF to come so I can move on to cycle 3. Plus. Not frustrated as I don't know when ovulation is now.
Sorry guys I know there's not much you can do but listen to my venting. I've always been 24days for the last 18m since my coil was removed. Bloody typical

Hi Everyone - Wishing for lots of babydust for everyone. And congratulations to those with BFPs! Its lovley to read good news.

@BubsNumber2inTheMaking I'm still here.

I took a few days to relax and not think about babies. Funny thing is 1 friend announced she is pregnant and I went to a zoom baby shower so its a bit impossible to avoid babies at my age

DH is away unavoidably to care for parents when ovulation is due so this won't be the month for me. Crossing my fingers for everyone!

@PeanuttyButter I'm not very knowledgeable so I can't offer much advice or say if it's normal or not. That said, it sounds like BFN was quite early so you never know until AF arrives and hopefully she won't!!

This process is really stressful and having covid can't be helping! I hope you have a chance to take care and rest and hopefully AF will stay away

@Raa852021 thank you. I've had BFN CD25 too. I definitely think I'm out I just need AF to come so I can move on. I think stress is probably playing a role but how do you relax, If you already feel relaxed.
