Please tag anyone I’ve missed from the old thread.

I’m currently enjoying my first glass of wine in about 10 weeks. Will happily give up alcohol for a baby but no baby I need alcohol 😂

Really hope that’s the start of a BFP for you @Babyghirl let us know when you test in the morning.

@Annny27 Sorry it looks like AF has arrived.

@Nuggetlover27 Fingers crossed for a positive FW

@Annny27 hahaha I know 🙈 start off being all 'Not gonna Google anything just going to take it chill' and end up googling the weirdest things like 'flushed face 9po' which weirdly was a symptom last time round 😂😂

@Annny27
Just have to get on with it I suppose lol, was speaking to brothers oh today she and my bro has had 4 kids and she said if all fails she will carry one for me so I'm holding on to that 💚

Just taking it slow this month girls and trying not to think of things too much. Glad to get the chance to see family in the garden today even if it was chilly! Felt a lot happier today because of it :)

@babyghirl that's sooo lovely of her ❤❤❤ hows the tww for you?

@kiwi17 I think it's worse when we have been pregnant before so we KNOW what to look out for haha!

@Annny27 it definitely is and because it was so recent I've logged all my symptoms on my app so now I'm looking back to January like- ooh I had a sore throat 7dpo last time and I have one today so maybe that's a thing 😂😣 nightmare. I need to chill put seriously! @Babyghirl that is such a lovely offer 🤞 you don't need it though and this month is your month!

@Annny27
I'm nt even counting dpo I'm just going with it lol all that checking stresses me out lol had a night playing bingo last night with the oh and his mate and wife we got talking and she herself is going down the ivf root so nice talking to someone on the same journey as myself. 💚
@kiwi17
Fingers crossed for all us ladies we will get there just taking abit longer to achieve it but will make it all the more special 💚
Happy Easter everyone I'm in work two till ten so not much off one for me 😂😂😂😂😂😂💚💚

@Annny27
Just checked I'm cd21 today lol so only 6 or 7 days to the witch shows her ugly head going to phone the recurrent miscarriage clinic on Wed as I was referred nearly a year and a half ago so going to c how much longer I have to wait as I'm 38 in June so time nt on my side 💚

Can I tentatively join pleas ladies? I found out I had miscarried at my 12 week scan at the beginning in March, had medical management that day, which was incomplete, and then surgery the following week. I have just got my first period, and we are planning to TTC again ASAP, but probably not this month as I need dental work done under sedation and need to make sure my iron levels are okay, as have been having treatment for anaemia, resulting from heavy blood loss. I am, therefore, planning to use this cycle to get into better shape, get on top of vitamin, positive thinking, eating etc.

@miscarriage39
Sorry to see you having to join r thread but glad you found us for support, sorry to hear about your loss its hard to go through look after yourself this thread has been like a wee family to me through the ttc journey and no question is out of order to ask. I have had 4 miscarriages and one cp now been put on the ivf list but told it can take up to 12 months to continue to ttc and if I still need it it's there hoping nxt pregnancy is a success for me, one thing I will say is try and relax easier said than done but it does help took me a year to fall first 3 times I think it's because I was so stressed but after my 3rd loss It only took ten weeks to fall again I took the relax approach thou I'm coming 38 in June so hoping I nt left it to late 💚💚

Hiya @Miscarriage39 nice to see you over on this board too! 👋 the ladies here are lovely, @Babyghirl is right like a big family and everyone is rooting for each other which is nice :) hope you manage to get sorted this cycle with what you want to in terms of vitamins etc. I've actually continued to take my asda pregnancy vit instead of going back to just folic acid when ttc and hoping that will help things! Hopefully help me feel a bit healthier anyway! 🤣

@kiwi17
Think I just want to buy ever vitamin going but then I will rattle as I wlk 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 got the b6 and my folate I have learned that vitamin b messes with my cycles so staying away from that lol how u feeling in this cycle 💚

@Babyghirl hahaha I know what you mean! Think that's why I stick with the pregnancy multivitamin so that I don't have to remember more than one in the mornings 🤣 so far ok, 7dpo and trying to not symptom spot especially as I've not had my period since the mc yet so not entirely sure when to expect it! It's all just a guessing game really. Gave it our best shot and now I'm forcing oh to redo the patio and decorate our bedroom to keep my mind occupied in the tww! How you feeling this cycle?

Babyghirl I’m sorry you have been through so much. I really hope you have a successful pregnancy before that IVF appointment comes through. Thank-you for the advice. I’m 39, so I totally get the fear about having left it too late, but fingers crossed that it’s not the case for either of us.

Hi Kiwi17, and thanks for the reassurance. I’ve just restarted on the Pregnacare Pre-conceive that I still had the cupboard, and I’m also taking co-Q-10. hopefully the benefit of the pregnancy vitamin will really help you.

Hi, is it ok if I join? I've recently had my second chemical pregnancy. We were trying but not ttc. Now we're so desperate to be pregnant again. I've ordered ovulation sticks and FRER tests for my next cycle. I'm going to continue taking my folic acid and look into other vitamins too. Is there anything else you ladies would recommend? Any experience of CP's (sorry I haven't read many of the previous posts!).

@kiwi17
I'm CD 21 today but don't ask how many dpo is could nt tell ya 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm just going with it and remember no symptoms could be good to lol I'm sitting in working wanting a big turkey dinner but instead I had a fry this morning lol my oh away to work nw to so won't c him till the morning. 💚
@miscarriage39
Hope so I knw a women who thought she was going through the menapose at 47 and turned of she was pregnant naturally, hoping I don't need ivf with how long you been trying to conceive for 💚
@itsMeantToBe
Sorry you find yourself joking us but glad you found us for support I have had a cp pregnancy and 4 miscarriages doc told me a cp is the body knew from egg was fertilised that it was nt right and would never of been a viable pregnancy, have you been to c your doc to get bloods or maybe a scan to check the urters 💚

@Babyghirl thank you. Sorry to hear about your losses, good luck with this cycle You all seem so resilient on this thread so I'm sure I'll find it helpful! I haven't been for bloods apart from getting my HCG checked. I will get in touch with the obstetrician who I was going to be under I think to ask for her advice and go from there.

@ItsMeantToBe
You can ask for routine bloods to check for different things. This group has helped me so much as all us ladies r on the same boat and its good to tlk to people in the same place your in nothing is ever tmi lol can ask anything and we will answer if we can 💚

My period has finally arrived! At least it means things are back to normal and I will hopefully be able to get pregnant quickly now. Same day as one of my best friends had her baby though, we started trying about the same time so feeling a bit crappy. A year on and I’ve had 2 miscarriages and put on nearly a stone. It’s hard not to feel jealous no matter how happy I am for her

@mrsF111
Sorry the witch showed her ugly head, but glad your body is doing what it's supposed to do, this ttc lark is hard and tiring but we will all get r sticky bfp soon have yourself loads of chocolate and some wine today have a down day if you need to then pick yourself up tomorrow dust yourself off and get bck on the ttc train we r all rooting for you girl. 💚💚

@mrsF111 that's so hard poor you :( good thing you've got your period on one hand but definitely rubbish on the other side including about your friend. I have a feeling that will be me too... my friend is due June and I bet we're still ttc by then. Definitely hugs and chocolate/wine recommended. I'm feeling down today, having almost convinced myself last night that I was pregnant because of similar symptoms to last time I have had a tiny bit of red when I wiped this morning so I'm guessing it's the spotting starting before af. I'm only 8dpo so could cling on to the whole implantation bleed thing but I've never had that in either of my other pregnancies/mc and in my mind now blood = not good. :( ah well... will need to pick myself up and move on but may allow a wallow first. It a even harder as it'll be my first af since the mc so realistically have no time frame to work to so not sure when she'll arrive. Hope every one else is doing ok! I need to take @Babyghirl s advice and relax I think!!

@kiwi17 I was convinced I would get pregnant before my period came back! I had cramping 2 weeks ago which must have been ovulation. It’s so hard isn’t it. Hopefully this month for us all 🤞
Thanks @Babyghirl. We’ve got this!

@kiwi17
Sorry your feeling down today viral hugs send to you and its so better r body's doing what they meant to and getting ready for carrying a healthy baby nxt time around we got this 💚 but my fingers r crossed that it could be implantation bleeding just cause u have nt had it before doesn't mean you won't ever get it every pregnancy is different and different could be a good sign 💚💚
@mrsF111
Just think this is the clear out your body needs in order to carry a wee healthy baby nxt time around, so your body getting ready yep we all got this ladies happy easter Monday I'm off today so might just treat myself to an Easter egg and a few blue today 💚

Well I'm cd22 today a load of creamy glue like cm my period due in 5 days so just waiting on her showing her ugly head 😂😂😂😂 but I'm OK with that going to phone docs on Monday c if they can book me in for more bloods like lupus blood clotting and things like that so when I get to the rmc clinic they r all done and it won't hold me bck. 💚

Thanks @Babyghirl you're always so positive and proactive about your situation it's inspiring :) I stupidly poas which was obviously 100% bfn so why did I do that?! What's wrong with me?? Made myself more miserable now especially as I'm only 8dpo and if that was implantation bleed wouldn't have built up enough hcg yet anyway 🙈 anyway please tell me that everyone else is being more sane today??

@kiwi17 nope not sane here. Been on the googling. I haven't been checking apps but i know when period is due and i am around 7dpo. Today's is

"7dpo boobs arent sore but they usually are - what does this mean"

Conclusion - means F all 😂😂😂

Sorry for BFN but it is super early as you know!

@babyghirl yeah they can check for clotting disorders which will be useful! Ita nice not to be checking my apps and noting my symptoms tbh haha!

@mrsf111 sorry AF arrived :(

@Annny27 glad it's not just me 😂 I literally googled that exact search today but with 8dpo instead of 7dpo 🙈🙈 please someone save me!! I know, problem is I think I'd rather just know if I'm out that's the frustrating thing! It then leads to all the '8dpo bfn then bfp' googling then 🤣 nightmare. Hope you find something to distract!
