Morning all 🥰 trying not to think about stuff too much tbh. I feel the way I normally do so not expecting too much - I am about 9 or 10 dpo i reckon but didnt do LH strips so cant know for sure ofcourse

@babyghirl will they give you the results of the blood tests on your appointment?

@lozza2206 do you have another scan booked at any stage?

@sweetbabydust1989 thinking of you lovely! Has HCG reduced naturally?

Sweetbabydust1989 · 04/05/2021 10:55

Hi ladies so been a little quiet for obvious reasons... had my hcg done on Sunday it's now 86 so went down by 116 very fast... bleeding has nearly finished so baby is now no longer... I am past the point of being upset I am so angry and cannot shake it off... I have spoken to a lovely lady at the epu who has decided my treatment was unacceptable considering it's happened twice in 4 months and the fact I had no time to speak to anyone or have my questions answered and was pretty much disregarded she is raising this as a huge formal complaint on my behalf I have to go back for bloods on Friday and next week to see her to decide on the next course of action... however gp just phoned me and I have been referred straight to the recurrent miscarriage unit due to having 2 ectopics at a different hospital I don't have to go through another ectopic before this which I am happy about... they have also put me in touch with a private bmi hospital which I have been to before for different reasons to have a hycosy test done on my next cycle.. I want to cry I feel like I am being listened too and that I am not throwing my toys around for no reason... I hope you're all doing well xx

Babyghirl · 04/05/2021 12:15

@sweetbabydust1989
It's a Hugh relief when you know your getting listen to so glad things r moving in the right direction for u and hopefully you get some answers at your test nxt month my app in 2 weeks tomara and I can't wait to c what they have put together nervous at the same time thou lol xxx

Sweetbabydust1989 · 04/05/2021 13:36

@Babyghirl I no it's all a mess I am emotionally drained but cannot let go of my anger... I have been referred to the miscarriage unit next month already got an app through... so no ttc for me for a while until these tests are done... partner is paying for my hycosy to be done so that's one thing out the way how are you getting on?? Xx

Babyghirl · 04/05/2021 14:03

@sweetbabydust1989
I'm all good just tired today 9th day working thank god off for nxt two days thou to get a break cd22 for me today, glad u got an app through so quick for the clinic one step closer to getting some answers so no op needed for u which is a good thing xxx

justwant2beamum · 04/05/2021 15:13

@Sweetbabydust1989 I'm glad you got someone to listen and are on the road to getting some help/answers.

CD10 for me. My cycles used to be 28/29 days with ovulation around day 15. Since mc cycles are about 25 days, last month peak OPK was CD12 and so predicted ov cd13. Now for this month my apps are predicting it even earlier but I really hope not. My partner is currently away for work and will be for another couple of weeks so basically we are out this month. But I'm hoping if I can get a cd14/15 ovulation back then I can go to where he's working this weekend and be in with a chance. It's a 5hr drive but I really can't bear the thought of being out for a whole month and not even getting a shot. I've resigned myself to being out anyway as obviously I'm not going to be able to DTD in the run up. But if I ov before Friday then obviously I won't be able to go to him and then will be out for definite.

Hope everyone else doing ok xx

Babyghirl · 04/05/2021 15:30

@justwant2beamum
How you coping with him away to work if you ovulate before the weekend take this time while he away to relax and have some girly time with u mates it will do you the world off good to chill and have some fun, the ttc train really does take over every inch off us and some time off now and again does us the world off good. 💚 Xx

kiwi17 · 04/05/2021 20:23

Oh no @justwant2beamum I remember you saying about him being away for mays cycle :( fingers crossed for you that ovulation is late this month! CD24 here, potentially 7/8dpo and I'm celebrating the miniscule milestone that I haven't started spotting today as last cycle I spotted for 6 days before af showed up and I was worried that might be my new norm! Haha weird celebration I know! Had mild cramping yesterday and today and a few boob twinges but not much else and nothing Google worthy yet 🤣

Babyghirl · 04/05/2021 20:46

@kiwi17
Yeha a no spotting party lol I'm having a wee blue wkd for u 😂😂😂😂 think most of us r in r tww but no googling lol nt allowed 😂

kiwi17 · 04/05/2021 21:49

Whoop! 🤣 haha I had a cheeky glass of white wine at the weekend - taking it nice and chill this month so fingers crossed!

Babyghirl · 04/05/2021 22:12

@kiwi17
My doc told my partner to take me out get me drunk and do all the work 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 he also said not to stop enjoying life and live life to the max as that's the time to least expect it to happen and drink till its pink cause babes gets nothing from us until a couple of weeks in lol 💚

justwant2beamum · 04/05/2021 23:16

@Babyghirl I'm totally fine about him working away I don't mind at all I quite like just being myself sometimes but not happy about the timing of his trip, would rather he went away straight after ovulation like he did in January! (Which was when I fell pg so hoping maybe him being away will be a good luck charm) 😂
@kiwi17 that's good re no spotting!

Babyghirl · 04/05/2021 23:32

@justwant2beamum
Don't you just love time to yourself cause I knw I do lol but ssshhhh don't tell the dp lol mines is on nites so I'm just chilling nearly ready for sleep thou 9 day strach in work finished today and has knocked me for 6 💚

kiwi17 · 05/05/2021 07:54

@Babyghirl definitely! Actually I don't want to spend months acting like I'm pregnant when I'm not in terms of avoiding stuff which I have been tempted to do in the past on the tww thinking it might magically help!!.. I'm not a big drinker anyway so thought it might help with the relaxing 🤣 fingers crossed!!

Miscarriage39 · 05/05/2021 08:40

Sweetbabydust1989 I am glad you are finally being listened to and that you have been referred to all the clinics.

justwant2beamum I am sorry your partner may be away at the peak moment this cycle. Have everything crossed that you don’t ovulate until he’s back.

I love the idea of a no spotting party Kiwi17.

I had hoped to at the start of a new cycle now, and was optimistically hoping that it would be a normal period without all the spotting afterwards. As it happens, my period hasn’t actually started (CD33), but after another short break, I am having intermittent spotting (lots on Saturday, nine Sunday, lots yesterday morning, nothing since). Emotionally, I have been all over the place, and just feel like I am never actually going to be able to TTC.

kiwi17 · 05/05/2021 08:47

Ergh @Miscarriage39 that's so frustrating :( did they do any more tests in end to decide if it was an infection? Could it be implantation bleeding or is that completely not a possibility? I'm so sorry It's been such a rubbish time for you. I had the 6 days of spotting before my first af after the mc but not sure why that happened but yours sounds way worse and not predictable either. I know how you feel a bit though, it's just so rubbish to constantly be bleeding all the time with no resolution. Virtual hugs and I hope it stops soon x

Babyghirl · 05/05/2021 08:50

@miscarriage39
Cycles after a miscarriage can be messed up for a couple of months my 27/28 day turned to a 43 day in march and 30 day in April hoping it's bck to normal nw thou got my app 2 weeks today and I'm so excited 💚

Miscarriage39 · 05/05/2021 08:52

Kiwi17 I suppose there’s a remote chance, but i have no other symptoms and this is exactly like all the other bleeds/ spots/ whatever’s, so will wave that possibility for a few days. The swabs all came back clear (which is a relief, but also means I have no better idea). If I am still in the same position next week, the dr said she would refer me for a scan, but I’m hoping to avoid that.

kiwi17 · 05/05/2021 09:12

@Babyghirl excited for you!! @Miscarriage39 ah ok I see what you mean. Is it worth doing a test just to rule out the possibility? You not keen for the scan just because of having had loads? I really hope it's just like @Babyghirl said and that your cycles will settle again. 🤞🤞

Miscarriage39 · 05/05/2021 09:38

Also really excited for you Babyghirl.

Hopefully it is just unsettled cycles, yes. I think my scan fear just comes from the memory of my 12 week scan. I keep thinking about that and bursting into tears, so don’t really want to go back, and have to go to the ultrasound department just now. Silly, I know, but it’s just where I am at.
