@Shortmamashortcycles yep I feel exactly the same as you!! I was so excited for Mat leave together...we used to text loads about our symptoms etc etc..now I can't do any of that! I don't want to take the shine off her pregnancy either but it's hard. I saw her a few weeks ago with a little bump...found that difficult. Plus my SIL is pregnant. It's her baby shower in a month..not sure I can face it..
Yeah hoping all's settling down now for me..I just want my body back to normal x

Skl2021 · 20/01/2022 18:12

@calimc83 don't encourage me 👀 but yes 🙊🤣 I shouldn't should I 🤦 x

@Skl2021 well if u like the thrill of the testing..then there's no harm?! X

Skl2021 · 20/01/2022 18:28

@calimc83 your such a bad influence 🤣🙌 haha I don't mind seeing negatives but I know it's worse for some people. I'm just to impatient to wait! X

I used to have my husband hide tests and then I'd desperately tear apart the house looking for them, and beg him for them. I can't say I've always been an even-keeled, rational person, but my god I've hit some lows.

Trying to hold the feelings of being happy for others while sad for myself at the same time. It's hard. I'm thinking maybe for a while I can be happy for people but also not put myself in the direct way of bumps and scan photos (scan photos are a funny one anyway--does anyone care except the parents?! I'm sure I've been guilty of showing mine in the past, and people either awkwardly pretended to care or unbeknownst to me were dying inside :( )

Skl2021 · 20/01/2022 19:41

@Ganesh2022 I would be the same I would only moan or look for them so it's pointless hiding them 🤣🤦 don't worry we have all been there!
It's a hard balance. Obviously you are happy for people and we don't know there journey but it does hurt inside. Yes try and stay out of The direct way. X

Vicariously excited for people to start testing 🌈 sending positive dye-stealer vibes. Hugs to everyone on AF, heck hugs to everyone (funnily enough in real life I’m not the most touchy person but lately feel like just hugging everyone ☕️) I’m still in total limbo but has that stopped me from taking many tests? Nooooo

calimc83 · 20/01/2022 20:35

@Skl2021 ohhhh such a bad influence...in every sense!! 🙈😆😆 xx

PamelaDoov · 20/01/2022 23:37

Skl2021 · 20/01/2022 23:55

@PamelaDoov I'm sorry your having such a shit time with this bleeding 😩 just when u think your getting somewhere xx

Just catching up on messages from yesterday, fell a bit behind because of my son being unwell!

@Shortmamashortcycles sorry to hear AF is starting. How was your dinner last night? Did it make you feel better or do you wish you just stayed at home?

@calimc83 annoying that they didn't scan you! Hopefully it does just start to ease off and you won't need to be scanned though.

And sorry your bleeding isn't stopping either @PamelaDoov. It then makes it hard for you to start moving forward.

@Skl2021 7dpo is so early still!!! According to one of my apps, I'm 7dpo too but I think I'm more 5dpo x

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 09:09

@Cruz86 hope your son gets better soon 💕 mine hasn't been much better we were back at hospital last night 🤦 what a crappy month! Yes I know I wasn't expecting to see anything just got the itch to test I will probably do it everyday now 🤣🙊 how u feeling any more symptoms? Xx

OP posts:
Cruz86 · 21/01/2022 09:24

@Skl2021 We're just getting ready to go to the hospital now! Seen two different drs and one last night said if he wakes up with the same symptoms, we need to go to a&e 😩 How's yours doing? Sorry you ended up back at the hospital too!
I don't really have any other symptoms! Keep prodding my boobs haha. I'm so tired but that's normal for this stage in my cycle. It's just the round ligament pain! Have you got anything? I don't blame you for starting the testing now, I'm exactly like that but will try to hold off this month xx

Cruz86 · 21/01/2022 09:28

Argh I've just been to the toilet and there's blood when I wipe 😩😩 x

Shortmamashortcycles · 21/01/2022 09:32

@Cruz86, oh no, what a day... hope the hospital goes ok and your son is much better, and it's just a bit of implantation bleeding 🤞🤞🤞

AF is a beast but my dinner was lovely - we had a good rant about all things mc-related.

Cindy974 · 21/01/2022 09:34

@Skl2021 Im 7dpo tested and bfn! Im feeling nauseous and hot though but that might be covid 🤣

@Cruz86 sending all my well wishes for your son. Oh no when is AF due?

@PamelaDoov Im so sorry its so hard and a constant reminder, I hope it goes asap so you can try and move on sending my love

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 09:34

@Cruz86 we were at hospital Monday and they said stomach bug and chicken pox. But that was questionable as it didn't look like chicken pox! He's had crippling stomach ache for a week now so we went back last night and all his glands in his body are inflamed now from fighting off this infection. Dr said the pain would be like appendicitis but it comes in waves 😩 no wonder he's been in agony all week 🤦 and suprise suprise he doesn't have chicken pox!! So he has been off school all week because of that! Hoping it goes soon it's been super stressful I feel useless. We have more Medicine to try today 🤞 hope you get sorted today too! 🤞 Not really alot of symptoms the odd niggle in lower stomach and the odd boob pain. I have had stuffy nose every morning lately 🙄 trying not to look into symptoms 🙈 don't want to get my hopes up! X

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 09:37

@Shortmamashortcycles glad you had a lovely dinner 💕
@Cindy974 didn't realize anyone was also 7dpo glad I'm not alone! Are you testing everyday? X

OP posts:
Cindy974 · 21/01/2022 09:43

@Skl2021 yeah… I started doing them at 5DPO even though I know its far too early 🤣 Ive just got the onestep ones so I have tonnes of them. Ordered some FRERs for when it gets down to the nitty gritty. Is it true ovulation tests can detect it earlier? I have plenty of them too 🤣

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 09:48

@Cindy974 yessss a girl after my own heart!! I started yesterday at 6dpo even though it's pointless 🤣🙌 just be careful with the one steps IV had a few evaps on them! Yes with my last pregnancy my opks started getting darker from about 7dpo! They were positive when I got my bfp! But some people also get a lh surge before af! So think it depends on the person x

OP posts:
Cindy974 · 21/01/2022 09:51

@Skl2021 honestly its an obsession 🤣 oh really? My last pregnancy that ended in MC I tested with them but think it was like 4 days before my period was due and it was the faintest line. Might have to whack out a couple opks today 🤔 🤣 doesn’t help I’m isolating aswell the temptation is too much

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 09:57

@Cindy974 it really is I think I have a problem 🙈🤣 just can't help myself if I have them in the house I use them! Yes I'm not sure if it works for everyone! Oh no I had covid a few weeks ago and the isolation was horrible 🙈 u might aswell keep busy with testing 🤣🙌 x

Cruz86 · 21/01/2022 10:03

Thank you @Cindy974 and @Shortmamashortcycles. AF isn't due for another 5/6 days but I spot before, without fail, every cycle anyway. I'm just worried that if we have conceived this cycle that something will be wrong and I'll have a mc again 😩

Oh your boy has really been through it this week @Skl2021, bless him. Hope he starts to feel better soon xx

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 10:05

@Cruz86 thankyou 💕 hope you get some answers too for your little one! 🤞 Oh no just seen your post! What's going on?! Is it alot or spotting? X
