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

Thank you @bez91 ! How are you feeling today?
I feel the same as you @ELMcg ... symptoms all day that its on its way but other than the smallest amount of spotting in the morning, nothing yet! I really do just want it to hurry up now. Its got to be soon surely 🙈

@elsimo aw Hopefully you either get a BFP or your cycle settles down a bit next month! When will you test? Did you carry on with opks after the Peak?

@elsimo ahahha poor DH! You testing late this week? Could just be a crazy cycle whilst your body normalises.

@NatJ24 feel ok, thanks for asking. Still spotting 🤷‍♀️ so day 4 of spotting now and still cramping at 7dpo. Had some similar symptoms to my last BFP, gassy, excess saliva etc but won't be testing early and still being realistic. Wishing yours and @ELMcg bodies would make their mine up too!

@bez91 I think il just wait and see if period arrives

@NatJ24 yip still testing CD11 and reading is zero xx

@bez91 how are you feeling this morning? How many Dpo is that you are at now?

@NatJ24 any sign of AF today?

I'm still waiting for AF, feeling so so bloated today! Still got all the symptoms of AF and none of pregnancy but no sign yet still. Was soo sure I would see it this morning when I woke up 😔. Interestingly the only new symptom I have had is that I was in a really bad mood yesterday! Literally never get PMS and I was just in such a huff!

@ELMcg feeling ok thanks, still cramping but light bleeding/spotting whatever the eff it was has stopped after 4 days. I'm 8dpo today.

Are you still waiting until Friday to test? I'm a bit in the camp if that I'd rather see AF than a BFN so may wait it out myself until AF is late, weird one as my long luteal phase means that'll be when I'm 19dpo 🤦🏼‍♀️

@bez91 that's good the spotting has stopped for you! Fingers crossed that's the end of it.

Yeh still waiting until Friday but fully expecting a BFN. I know each time can be different but I'm somewhere between 14 and 20 DPO just now and absolutely no symptoms whatsosever just AF symptoms. If I was likely to get a BFP I'd expect sore boobs by now. I think AF is just late. If I take my first AF post MC it was 5 and a half weeks after surgical management so I think my cycle might just be longer now! That would put AF due this weekend instead of last weekend.

@ELMcg no AF yet but more spotting than yesterday and cramps so I am expecting it soon. I've also got a really bad headache which I do get before AF sometimes. I really just want it to start now haha!
It could still be good news for you! But if not then hopefully AF appears for you soon too. We might still be in sync haha.

@bez91 hopefully that spotting was all good signs for you!! 19dpo seems so long to wait 🙈 but I definitely understand why you want to. I think next time I will try to...but cant 100% say I will ha!

Just wanted to check in with you all and let you know my scan went well this morning 😊 I’m measuring a day ahead at 7+2, baby is in the right place with a good heartbeat. Such a relief and feel like a weight has been lifted as I was convincing myself either it was ectopic or my HCG levels were raised because of remnants of my miscarriage (since it took 5-6 weeks for my negative and I got a positive only 2 weeks later) but this isn’t even a thing according to google, I’m just crazy!

I check in on this page almost every day as I’m loving following along on your journeys and also impatiently waiting on those who need to test next 😂 I always check first thing in the morning for those doing their morning pee haha

Congratulations @PumpkinEverything that's such lovely news! Please keep us updated

My AF still isn't here but I'm expecting it today or tomorrow, my cycles can be very long and I'm generally in the "don't test until AF is definitely late" camp.

@NatJ24 that's AF here for me I think. Just went to the loo and had a fair bit of red spotting so I think that's it starting! Literally never been so happy to see it 😂

Similar to you I was pretty realistic so wasn't really expecting a BFP this month so glad I'm moving on to the next month now! Better get the OPKs ordered!

@PumpkinEverything aww that's so lovely to hear all was OK 😊 you must be so relieved! So nice that you check in from time to time too.

@PumpkinEverything aww congratulations so pleased to hear a lovely positive story!

@PumpkinEverything lovely lovely news. You must feel so releaved. I hope you have relaxing and enjoyable pregnancy ☺

11DPO here. No signs really other then the urge to test lol. Got a bfp at 12dpo last time so may give in tomorrow morning! My mood has been a bit all over the place this month, feel fine one day then completely down the next. But im thinking my hormones are still settling down after mc maybe. Anyone else experience this?

Ah AF just appeared for me too, right on time! Will give the ovulation strips a go for this cycle.

@ELMcg ahhhh damn the AF witch!

When I've had BFPs before not always had boob pain until been much further along. Strange one boobs! @NatJ24 I'll definitely hold out until at least 14dpo may not last until AF due 🤦🏼‍♀️

Yayyyy @PumpkinEverything been waiting your update, fab fab fab news! Relief must be immense 😊

Thanks everyone! Should be getting a scan in EPU in two weeks or so once I ring them, as they offered me one around 9 weeks as that’s when I found out before. Will let you all know how I get on 😊 yes @bez91 felt like such a relief! Bought us a massive breakfast and cake afterwards. Realised I got myself rainbow cake which I never thought about, but feels nice to know as this will be my rainbow baby 🤞🏻

Just in terms of symptoms as I see everyone talk about it, think it’s all hard to know. Both my BFP symptoms have been completely different both times. One time I had sore boobs for days before, this time it was only a week or so after my BFP before I got it, and they haven’t been as painful as they were last time, even now. Also had back pain the first time, and not the second, and feel like I had much more cramping the second time round, which has also continued this whole time when it didn’t before! Only thing that was the same was that I had crazy moods both times and convinced myself both times a few days before that that was it for me and AF was 100% coming. Also slightly vivid dreams both times, but second time it was waking up thinking I was bleeding one night, and another dreaming about having my surgical management all over again and waking up during it 🤦‍♀️ Feel like there’s no consistency at all!

@bez91 @NatJ24 think I've had a false start today 😂 it's now just brown spotting. Still got sore cramps so think it's still on its way!

@ELMcg well you won't believe it, the spotting has turned in to full AF for me this afternoon. I knew it was on its way and would more than likely be today with the spotting and cramps I was getting plus the headache! It is just funny how we keep on staying so alike.
I've already got a box of the CB digital again that I already had for ovulation with the smiley again but I think I might get some cheap ones to do along side it again like last month just because it did help and back up the smiley.

@bez91 well 14dpo is still a good amount 😊 you'll soon be there! Keeping everything crossed for you!

Pregnancy symptoms are funny things! With my son I had little I other than horrendous morning sickness at all times of the day and night, after being in the car, after eating, the smell of the gas when cooking even brought it in 🤢 that lasted about 4 months then I had a pregnancy related rash (think chicken pox) from the top of my head to the tip of my toes for the whole pregnancy and despite numerous tests there was no reason other than being pregnant and it started to go as soon as I had him (basically I was allergic to being pregnant) with my daughter I had no symptoms other than feeling queasy so no sore boobs or cramps or backache or pretty much anything! Then first mc I had implantation bleed, cramps and backache. Second I had cramps and backache and itchy nipples 😂 so all very different experiences 🤷🏼‍♀️

@vitaminb33 you are at the same as me and @ELMcg now then! CD1 here we go!

@ELMcg oh just seen your most recent post! This is what mine has been like since yesterday, brown spotting. Then this afternoon it came in full force haha

@PumpkinEverything yay!!! This is amazing news! I was actually thinking about you earlier and remembered you said your scan was today as the last one hadn't booked properly. I was hoping that we would hear from you!!! Im so happy for you! It must be so nice to see and such a relief for you. Definitely keep us updated 😁🌟🌈

Just popping in to say @PumpkinEverything thats wonderful news hun xx

CD10 for me if you count day 1 as first one of miscarriage bleeding. All now stopped for few days so looks like all passed fairly quickly, a lot more intense this time than the last bc it all just happened at once! Not sure what to do this month, or any other yet but my head says its way too late but my heart says differently!

Thanks so much @gizmo167 and I really hope you’re doing okay ❤️ Have been thinking of you

@PumpkinEverything that is lovely news, congratulations! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months and beyond.

It's so nice seeing some nice news. I was late to the thread, how long have you been trying? X
