@amyannx Same! I'm just constantly hungry 🤦🏼‍♀️ trying to be healthier from now on otherwise I'll regret it! Xx

@Willow1982 it’s funny how we’re in such different places during the cycle. I reckon the vaccine will have affected my cycle this month too, just need to wait and see. I think it’s great you have some time away during the tww, something to look forward too and a good time to relax! I’m gonna try and take it easy during the tww from now on. Think I’m gonna book my self into a face to face yoga now that we’re open up again. Be interesting to see what I’m doing right or wrong 🤣

@Twinkles18 did you mention vitamins? I’ve just started taking Ubiquinol 300mg once a day. It’s a form of q10 which is easier absorbed. They’re not cheap but I’m 43 and egg quality deteriorates at this age so wanted to give myself a better chance.

Sorry to all the bfn’s and congratulations to the bfp’s.

xx

@Confused678866 and @amyannx lovely to hear all in well with you guys and your pregnancies. xx

@Twochews78 Thank you! Wishing you lots of luck 🍀 🤞🏻🙏🏻 xx

@Twochews78 yes iv heard thats really good! I'm just taking the coq10 capsules and hoping for the best lol I'm 28 so hopefully egg quality isn't too bad yet but just wanted the best chance after mc in Jan 🤍 friend took them for 3 months and ended up preg after years of trying so hopefully we get those odds too😘

Hey all!
I’m having a difficult day today - I know it’s PMS as I had a bfn on 14dpo and AF is due. My PMS is always mostly emotional. But there is also disappointment there about another cycle gone. And my toddler is sleeping badly in the heat so I’m exhausted and I have a headache and I’m a bit burnt out at work which is in mental healthcare and exhausting in itself because I have to be the chipper one who helps everyone else cope.

Today I would like to curl up and have a little cry, or maybe go for a long bike ride, or have a break, but obviously can’t do that as I have a job!

Sorry to vent - I’ll be better once AF arrives, it always flicks a hormonal - emotional switch.

Oh @Fiep it’s okay to come on here and vent. That’s what these forums are for!
I don’t have a toddler (TTC for our first) but work and life can really get to me in lockdown and TTC doesn’t make it easier. I don’t think I’ve ovulated this month and it’s really upset me cause it’s a month wasted. I had a big cry the other night and just want AF to show up now.

Oh @Fiep I’m sorry to hear this, I’m mental health too and it’s tough going at the minute! Could you maybe take an annual leave day or half day and have a rest. It can be really disappointing, I hear you. Being sleep deprived doesn’t help either! xx

Hello lovelies hope you don't mind me jumping on. I love reading all your messages and congratulations to those who already got their BFP.
I'm 5dpo today and I'm due to test on 17th. I hope I can hold testing until af is due as I spent a fortune on tests last few cycles. I have a very consistent 14 days luteal phase so if af doesn't arrive on 17th I'll test then.
Baby dust to all ❤️

@Confused678866 same as me! Let's see how long I last lol xx

@Twochews78 thank you! Good luck to you xx

Hi ladies currently ttc baby number 2
Suffered a chemical pregnancy just 2 days ago and really upset about it but we feel positive we can actually conceive now after 9 months of worry thinking one of us is the problem.
Is anyone taking vitamins or anything I'm currently on 800mg folic acid and high strength vitamin D wondering if there's anything. Else that ladies have found helpful and looking for people to enjoy my journey with x

Sending love @Laurenxx94 I had a chemical a few weeks ago and found it really upsetting, be kind to yourself x

How long have you been ttc for ? It's difficult isn't it I'm struggling to come to terms with it xx

Sending love @Laurenxx94

I take the seven seas TTC which is folic acid, vitamin D, b12, b6, iron etc. I also take vitamin e and c which are meant to help with uterus lining and also taking q10. Only on cycle 3 TTC our first but have gone pretty much “all in” 😂

We've been trying for #2 for 5 months @Laurenxx94 , yes it was gutting to see that positive and then have it taken away 😞
I did seem to ovulate fairly normally afterwards though so hope that means my cycle will be back on track. here's hoping for happy news all round this month!

That's good to know. Apparently my HcG didn't rise above 12 which worries me as they also mentioned my progesterone but I can't get referred for ages. My doctors great but obviously doesn't specialise in it. Hoping I ovulate as normal this month after my bleeding stops. How old is your child? Xx

Hi,

Hi , sorry about your miscarriages must of been awful , I too have just suffered an early miscarriage just 2 days ago and still trying to figure out why? Are u taking any vitamins to help? We're on month 9 hoping my ovulation picks up this month ASAP xx

@Missy95 i completely get that, yesterday my sister in-law announced shes having a boy by saying on family chat 'heres a wave from our son' i was so angry immediately started crying and felt jealous, envy almost spite towards her. she knows what weve been through and felt very insensitive, i was doing so much better since our losses but yesterday hit me right back down and cried the whole day. its normal to have good and bad days sending love and baby dust. xx

@Laurenxx94 Hi, so sorry for your loss and even more so is so recent, how are you holding up? unfortunately you will never get the answer your looking for just a bad bit of luck it seems, my advice from my experience try let yourself recover physically and emotionally before trying again make sure your ready i know your desperate to try again but when i fell the second time i was grateful of course but wasnt emotionally ready i was panicked by the whole thing as felt hadnt had time for my body to recover from my d&c or had a cycle i also had no idea how far along i was when first got the positive so had to have a early scan which showed nothing which brought back awful memories from my previous scan, it was all just abit soon, now i feel much more ready. i take preganare every night which contains all the nutrients you need just check your bmi as if over a certain amount they advice you to take extra folic acid also. We are 11 months into our trying journey with two failed attempts, had so many friends, family fall pregnant during and all worked out, its so hard on us who have experienced this torture so dont ever feel like your alone and not allowed to feel upset, jealous of others, sending love and baby dust. xx

Thanks so much for your reply it means a lot knowing I'm not alone. We definitely are ready to ttc again we feel more than ever but I understand what you mean by the emotional side of things. That must of been so difficult for you going through it twice like that. If you don't mind me asking how far along we're u when you had your d&c? I hope this month works for you, are you tracking ovulation at all? X

@Laurenxx94 well that’s great you feel ready and really hope it’s your month and get your rainbow, I know I was desperate to be pregnant again as had started planning ahead and for it to be taken away was so hard but at same time I was petrified after going through all I went through again if didn’t work out, I had a few complications firstly was a missed miscarriage so my body hadn’t accepted the loss, then I started miscarrying few days later but ended up haemorrhaging through the contractions and ended up being admitted to hospital to be monitored and iv painkillers and gas & air until it was too much and I was rushed down to theatre, when I had my d&c I was 13 weeks but baby had passed at 11 weeks where we found via our dating scan at 12.5 weeks I still get flashbacks of the screen that’s why scans are so hard for me. It was all very scary and had to be on my own due to covid but I would go through all that again if gives us a chance to get our rainbow, yes this month I tracked my ovulation so have given it our best bet hopefully as first month tracked my ovulation previously I got my positive and that was my mmc. Hope the above doesn’t scare you or worry you just think it’s helpful to talk about the trauma us women can go through to get a baby, I wish someone had told me how it could be instead it’s like a really bad period. Xx

@LeeTTCRainbow that sounds so traumatic. Have you had any counselling about the trauma? I had some EMDR therapy for a birth trauma (I trained in EMDR and as part of the training had the therapy myself), and it worked really well. I’ve also been using it with others and it has worked.
Here is what it is:

Hello ladies how is everyone doing ? May wasn't my month but hoping June is ! I was starting to get a bit obsessed! I'm following an app but have the odd withdrawal bleed between periods came off depo in March! So I bought some ovulation sticks as not 100% whether the app is accurate ! Has anyone had any success in pregnancy from using ovulation sticks ?
Wishing all BFP very soon ! Xx
