That would be awesome @Babyghirl! Well I'm on cd22 about 7dpo I think and have hit the miserable side of the 2ww where I think it's never going to happen 😟 this happens every month! Anyone else? Need distracting big time today.. literally have no reason for it but if my lp is only 10 days like it has been then I should start spotting in 3 days time.. 😏

Babyghirl · 30/06/2021 08:19

@kiwi17
Hoping the witch stays away for you, I knw what u mean you be all positive coming up to ovulation then the week the witch is due to show u get all nagitive again, the spotting could indicate low progesterone can u nt say to your doc abot but tell him ur spotting from like cd8 he might give you progesterone to c if that helps sometimes a wee while lie is needed lol. 💚

kiwi17 · 30/06/2021 08:50

I definitely will if it happens again this month! I've never had the problem before I'd normally spot about 2/3days before but 6 days seems extreme! Plus added to a week of af means I'm bleeding for 2 out of 4 weeks each cycle which is really frustrating. I know I guess the excitement gets you through ovulation and week 1 and then I start to feel frustrated that I haven't had any symptoms of pg so decide it hasn't happened 🤦‍♀️

@kiwi17
I have in my head ur not out to the bitch comes in on her broom stick lol, yea do he might do bloods to c what going on or asked to be referred to gynecologist 💚

PeanuttyButter · 30/06/2021 09:59

Thanks for the add @Annny27

@kiwi17 I have the same feelings myself every month, hopefully the next few days go quickly for you and AF stays away.

@treesall I don't know why we do it to ourselves, we test knowing it's too soon then it doesn't satisfy us because we know it still could go either way.

ELM7 · 30/06/2021 10:38

@PeanuttyButter you are so right it doesn’t satisfy! I crumbled and tested this morning. 12dpo and AF due any time now. Of course it was a BFN but I still have the thought well maybe it’s too early/test not sensitive enough. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Babyghirl · 30/06/2021 10:42

@ELM7
@PeanuttyButter
I'm 12 dpo today tested on Monday cause I had period cramps on sat of course a bfn lol so just 4 more days to the witch rides in on her broom stick lol 💚

lovelylittlesunflower · 30/06/2021 10:51

Hope everyone is ok!
Funny to be knowing I'll be going through the TWW with everyone again. When I got pregnant it was so weird as I had such a strong positive way before my period was due....wonder what it will be like next time.
I'm sorta stuck in the weird limbo of waiting for my blob or ovulation, will probably be my period. I bloody hate them, horrendously heavy and it's gonna be tough seeing blood again, feel a bit weird about it!

Babyghirl · 30/06/2021 11:20

@lovelylittlesunflower
Not going to lie first period after my losses hit me hard it was the fact of it brought it bck I was no longer pregnant but you get through it one way or another. I had planty of chocolate and a few drinks and a relaxed nite for the first day it was the hardest out of it but your strong you can do it xx

PeanuttyButter · 30/06/2021 14:21

@ELM7
@Babyghirl
I tested yesterday although we've only dtd to completion once and I don't think i was fertile. Can't help myself!!

@lovelylittlesunflower I'm in the same situation as you, waiting for my first period post MMC. Had a bit of pink when I wiped yesterday and today so AF is on her way. I don't know how I will feel once it comes to be honest. I want it here now so it's done, but at the same time I wish it wasn't due.

So glad I found this thread xx

It's so tough isn't it. I'm quite traumatised from my MC, I had a haemorrhage 😩 so I'm dreading my period.
We will get through, as soon as I go through my AF the closer I am to moving on from this.

Babyghirl · 30/06/2021 15:10

@PeanuttyButter
That's the way I was thinking but also the sooner it was here and out off the Rd the sooner it would be to start ttc again 💚
@lovelylittlesunflower
My period post mc was nt bad they told me it could be but tbh it was really light like I lost most of the blood during mc as I had to be kept in hospital cause it was bad so don't think there was anything left for my first period lol 💚

That's reassuring! I was hospital for 2 nights with mine, they wanted to keep me in for longer but my partner wasn't allowed to visit so I came home.

Trenzalor · 30/06/2021 17:09

May I join you all? Just had my third consecutive MC trying for baby No3. I’d like to be able to chat with people who understand not only MC but also that need to complete your family despite MC.

kiwi17 · 30/06/2021 17:28

Welcome @Trenzalor. I'm sorry for your loss. I had a mc in march ttc number 2 so I know how you feel about completing your family and there are a few other ladies in similar situations here. How are you feeling?

Also ladies, I just poas and got a positive opk at 7dpo... trying to not get my hopes up but after @SLCxxx success story it's hard not to! Either that or I'm ovulating late 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ but I definitely had a positive 7 days ago and am not due til 8th July... help!!

Miscarriage39 · 30/06/2021 21:47

Fingers crossed Kiwi17. I really hope it is a sign that things have worked this month.

Trenzalor welcome, although I am sorry you find yourself here. I had a miscarriage in March while trying for our third, so I totally get you on the pain of miscarriage while trying to complete a family.

Babyghirl · 01/07/2021 06:59

@kiwi17
Omg my fingers r crossed for you girl hoping this is your month 🙏🤞🍀💚
@Trenzalor
Welcome so sorry you find yourself with us, us ladies know what ur going through so here to keep u company girl, I have had 4 miscarriages and 1 cp ttc num 1 they r heart breaking but you learn to get through them 💚

SLCxxx · 01/07/2021 08:10

Omg @kiwi17!! Keep daily testing now, you will know because it gets darker. My fingers and toes are crossed for you! Also my temp stayed 36.7-36.8, it didn’t drop (still hasn’t). Keeps us updated 🤗

@Annny27 thank you for the new thread lovely 💕

@Babyghirl I had such a bad pain on my right side I thought I was having a ruptured ectopic, EPAU done a scan and I have a cyst there and an empty gestational and yolk sac in my womb, have to go back on 10th to see if an embryo has developed or not 🤦🏼‍♀️ So still peeing on sticks to keep me going, lol

Babyghirl · 01/07/2021 08:17

@slcxxx
How far along r you now 💚

SLCxxx · 01/07/2021 08:29

5+3 I think, that’s going from ovulation date plus 2wks, if I go from LMP it’s 6+4.

We literally only DTD 2 times last month, 2 days in a row in my FW. The only thing I did different was slept with the fertilily in and peelings with preseed, I honestly feel it helped

Babyghirl · 01/07/2021 09:17

@slcxxx
Hoping u see bean and heart beat on screen when u go bck have you any symptoms xx

kiwi17 · 01/07/2021 09:25

@SLCxxx fingers crossed for everything to turn out ok for you! It is still early to see the embryo isn't it? I did another opk this morning and it was super faint and negative so I'm guessing that yesterday's was just a fluke 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ serves me right for getting my hopes Up! Haha. Never mind. I will just have to wait and see. Weird thing was yesterday's was positive in the afternoon with weak urine and this morning was fmu 🤷‍♀️ anyway. I don't temp anymore as I found it was just stressing me out as I could never do it at the same time of day so I'm not sure about that either!

ELM7 · 01/07/2021 09:33

@kiwi17 I got a positive OPK this morning but negative HCG. Now wondering if my second covid vaccine is going to mess/delay AF.

@SLCxxx hope you get to see a sticky bean at your next scan.

Oh that's weird @ELM7 I haven't done a pg test yet will wait for 14dpo probably- only 8dpo today. I had my second dose nearly 3 weeks ago now so hoping that it won't have affected it - when did you have yours?
