Congrats to those with BFPs on the last thread there was a lot of you 🥳

@MammaJ21 my cycle went to 50 days with no ovulation so given my history of anovulation i was prescribed provera to have a bleed so I could take clomid.

Hi @MammaJ21 everyone is different, on my first mc I went pretty much straight back to normal, second one was a bit different and was a bit all over the place

@gizmo167 I think that's the trouble I may have, I suspect I have pcos but ov last month when I had the test so doc just dismissed it, I'm on 5000 vitamins a day now 😂 so so that should help with it all but the pcos prob still stopping me get a bfp!

Hopefully that does the trick @Marvellouslymadmum 🤞x

Morning everyone, we made it to Friday! Always feel like I don't over think things at the weekend so glad I am here!

6 or 7dpo for me, depending on when I ovulated (according to CB it was late Friday or Saturday). Feeling OK so far and not really symptom spotting. Although I have had headaches which I also had at this exact time last month so I think post MC I now get hormonal headaches (lucky me!)

How it everyone else doing? @NatJ24 @Leesha94 you must be in a similar position and @bez91 not far behind? Hopefully some others in the TWW as well?!

@ELMcg @bez91 Hii!
Happy Friday! Finally 😁
7dpo for me today. I am feeling OK. Trying not to symptom spot myself but I think that as this week goes on I will notice things more as it gets closer to when AF would be due. Then you think is this pregnancy symptoms or just AF on its way haha! AF should be due next Friday I think or there abouts.

Oh and @ELMcg I can get really bad hormone headaches, but I did used to get them before the MC also. They can be so bad!!!

Hi @ELMcg @NatJ24 ahhh headaches! I wonder if that is a thing, I've had them each cycle since MMC in December always in TWW too so like you say probably hormonal!
I've literally had the same symptoms the last few cycles that I had with both BFPs that ended in MC so I'm trying not to read too much into them with the exception of sore boobs 😂 I'm 3dpo today.

@ELMcg like you I'm better on weekends, find myself getting distracted from work in the week!

Morning ladies. Think I’ve just wasted my last pregnancy test! Cycles are usually 30-34 days so thought I’d test as I’m currently CD31. It was stark white! Should have just held off for CD34 and waited on the dreaded AF arriving! Kinda convinced myself I was pregnant....although probably wishful thinking and serious symptom spotting x

Morning xx

@bubblybrit aw hun hopefully just tested too early! I'm with you with the wishful thinking but we have to dont we!

@Marvellouslymadmum, that was the odd thing the Drs couldnt figure out with me, I had pcos (diagnosed following laparoscopy for irregular cycles) but I was ovulating and they couldnt understand why I wasnt getting pregnant. Guess my body just needed a good kick and thats what the ovarian drilling achieved!

Well me, CD34 and not a sniff of AF. My nipples and the area directly around them are starting to get sore now and nippy pains in them, wee bit of cramping, waking in the night to go pee, like desperately needing to go but apart from that nothing! If nothing arrives I will test Sunday but I'm not hopeful at all!

@gizmo167. Yeah I’m hoping that it’s maybe too early but we really only managed to dtd once over my fertile window so the chances of catching this month are slim. If AF doesn’t arrive by Monday then I’ll test again. Was just hoping for some good news over the weekend as a family member is rather ill at present and could have done with the cheering up! I hope you get good news on Sunday 🤞 x

@gizmo167 I got a letter through today to say that my referral to gynaecology is being considered and I should get a letter from them if it's accepted or the doc if not so 🤞🏻 they're going to have a look for me! You've got some positive signs there so you never know!

@bubblybrit definitely not out yet 🤞🏻 for you too!

Thanks @Marvellouslymadmum. Will need to try and distract myself for a few more days x

Hi ladies 👋🏻, am now 11dpo and AF is due on Monday, so far have held off testing this month.. but am not holding out much hope as I have zero symptoms. Anyone else close to testing? I do love seeing all the lovely BFPs, we had lots last month but this month seems less lucky 🤔

What day do you usually wait to test? Or do you wait until AF is late? 🤦🏼‍♀️

@SLCxxx. I try not to test early although didn’t listen to my own advice this month. My cycles are usually 30-34 days so I tend to hold off until CD34 if AF hasn’t arrived by then. I ended up caving today and tested at CD31. Clearly BFN but now I’m wondering if it’s just cause I tested early? Wish I had just waited rather than hanging on to the hope that I’m getting a BFN from testing early! X

@bubblybrit, so you are the exact stage as me.. due on in 3 days 🙈. Every morning since day 7 I have woken up thinking I should test.. but have purposefully made myself walk to the bathroom and rid myself of that first morning urine 🤣. I can completely understand about caving! Last month I had so many symptoms I was convinced I was pregnant and was testing from 7dpo! This month I have no real symptoms so am not as tempted to test so have managed to resist. My fingers are crossed it was just to early to show on the test and you implanted late 🤞🏻

Yeah think we have similar timelines @SLCxxx. I tested earlier than normal as have some twitches/cramping, peeing more than usual and have felt a little dizzy. I was a bit silly though and didn’t even test with FMU. Haven’t done myself any favours 😂 don’t have any pg tests left in the house so will buy one on Monday if AF hasn’t arrived by then 🤞 we can be test buddies! X

@SLCxxx I'm only cd5 so no testing here and I generally wait until af is late anyway, too many disappointments in the past!

@bubblybrit yes definitely distraction is the best thing!

Hey can I please join? I have just had a mmc with my first pregnancy. Surgical management on 5th March. Now stopped bleeding, still waiting for negative test. Praying for a BFP and sticky bean really soon 🤞🏻💕

Welcome @justwant2beamum. I am sorry that you find yourself in this group. I had a MMC in Dec with my second. It’s absolutely horrible. Hope you get your BFP soon 🤞 x

Hi everyone, hope your all ok. Just some advice please? Last month I got my peak on day 14 and had a 26 day cycle but this month I’m currently on cd13 and absolutely nothing on opk. All very low. I usually have a 26 day cycle so I can’t imagine I’m ovulating late . I’m 41 so wondering if I’m just not going to ovulate this month x

@Florence15 I believe that the length of the luteal phase is more important than the day that you actually ovulate so I wouldn't worry too much about a delay. I'm usually CD18 like clockwork for a peak but since the MC I've peaked before and after but my LP is always around 12 days. Hope this helps 💕

CD1 today for me...currently in a steaming hot bath with a large white wine in a massive huff 😤🤣

Sorry I meant CD16 for my peak - I have a long one, lasts over 24 hours so I usually mark my first low after my peaks as ovulation day (although it could be during the decrease to normal too I suppose 🤔)

@mrswilso thanks 😊 sometimes tracking opks can be really frustrating can’t it. Sorry to hear your on CD1. 😔 onwards and upwards. Hopefully this is your month. I’ve splashed out this month and bought some pre seed too as I was worried my cm wasn’t there since my mc. Fingers crossed I do ovulate and get to use it 😂

@Florence15 I was thinking about you lovely, hoping all works out with the ov tracking, I cant help as I dont use them, I found when I was ttc with my dd they were more stressful than not bc of my long irregular cycles at that time!

I'm going to test tomorrow, cd35 so longest in 8 years, know it's just my body adjusting after the 2nd mc so not holding out any hope!

@mrswilso sorry to hear about AF, you enjoy that wine lady 🍷 but you're missing chocolate 😜
