Fgs flashing smiley this morning! So now I’ve got to DTD again for god knows how long😩 please don’t be 10 days of flashing again 😥

Skl2021 · 03/03/2022 09:19

@calimc83 I have no answers 🤦 hate it when our bodies throw a curve all. How are you today? Xx

@HoneyLemon29 lovely lines 🙌🤞 xx

Welcome to all the newbies 💞

Having a major wobble today. I woke up today with feelings of dread. Keep going to the toilet to check expecting blood. Anxiety is high I'm just expecting something to go wrong. Hope this is just a blip 😩 can't snap out of it. X

@Skl2021 sorry to hear you're having a wobble! It's probably down to increasing hormones? They can do funny things 😂

@arianasky that's exciting - welcome to the TWW! Are you going to try taking anything (aspirin etc)? I've been drinking pomegranate juice (amongst a few other things) and I think it tastes absolutely rank.

@PamelaDoov I feel you. I had 8 days one cycle. I was ready to throw it out the window but don't give up, you will get that static!!

Skl2021 · 03/03/2022 09:27

@bunnykins123 I don't know what's going on but I'm just filled with fear not been doing too bad the past few days. X

@arianasky good luck with the tww 🤞🙌 xx

@PamelaDoov I hope you get that static soon don't give up 🤞🙌 xx

@bunnykins123 I genuinely thought it was done and I’d just missed it! Gah.
@Skl2021 I’ll try my best, hope the flashing period isn’t too long this time.

HoneyLemon29 · 03/03/2022 09:32

@bunnykins123 I don't have any 😅 just a little pain in my pelvic bone and cramping every now and then, I do have loads of spots between my boobs x

arianasky · 03/03/2022 09:33

@bunnykins123 well I take zinc, iron, vitamin B,C,D,E, omega 3, COQ10, and folic acid 5mg and seven seas TTC vits 🙈 I know I'm crazy 😂 and I'll start 150mg of aspirin from today and a progesterone cream I bought I'll start using today and fluffy socks and slippers warm feet warm uterus apparently 😂 I sound crazy saying it all like that! 🙈

@Skl2021 sorry you're feeling anxious try and convince yourself you are pregnant right now and that's the main thing ❤️ although I totally get why you're anxious 💕

@PamelaDoov I only had two mornings of flashy and got my peak last night then so hopefully the same will happen for you especially if you've been having a lot of symptoms 🤞🏻

Skl2021 · 03/03/2022 09:39

@arianasky I was doing so well but today something is different and I don't know why 🤦 this is such a rollercoaster 🤦 xx

OP posts:
PamelaDoov · 03/03/2022 09:50

@arianasky I really hope so, and last month was a really slow rise because of my hormones all over the place after MC. Hopefully this month is a bit quicker. I’m already on CD18, ovulation shouldn’t be that far away otherwise this cycle will end up being worse than the last one!

Ganesh2022 · 03/03/2022 09:57

@Skl2021 sorry you’re having a day like that. I struggle badly with anxiety and it can sometimes have no rhyme or reason to it, it’s really really hard ❤️ Do you feel sick? I’ve underestimated in the past how much feeling sick daily (tho I wish for it now—want morning sickness to start..) and not eating well bc of it can mess with my mood.

bunnykins123 · 03/03/2022 10:09

@PamelaDoov do you usually test with the flashing ones? A tip I've learnt is when you start seeing the lines on the tests getting darker, start testing in the evening too as I always get my static in the evening!

@Skl2021 I think it's naturally to have up and down days. Be gentle on yourself and try do something that'll distract you. Do you know when you will have your next scan?

@arianasky doesn't sound crazy to me at all! I'm already on 75mg aspirin and Cyclogest but may increase the aspirin to 150mg. I'm taking a whole combination of vitamins too - I think we are taking a similar amount 😂 did you get much EWCM this month?

Skl2021 · 03/03/2022 10:29

@Ganesh2022 thanks I have been so positive trying to not let it drag me down but today has hit me hard. Hate feeling like this waiting for something to happen. Don't even know why I feel like this today. My sickness and symptoms come and go daily 😩 which doesn't help! Xx

@bunnykins123 my next scan is end of march unless I book a private one xx

Bridgey8 · 03/03/2022 10:33

@Skl2021 I feel you! Wobbles are part of my day to day. Just stay calm - you've got this! 💕

I'm still bleeding which just terrifies me everytime I go to the loo xx

arianasky · 03/03/2022 10:33

@Skl2021 ah I'm sorry just try not to overthink as hard as it is 💕

@bunnykins123 yeah I took 75mg last month and still miscarried so upping it this cycle 🤞🏻 I've had some yeah you?

@PamelaDoov hopefully it will just be a day or 2 of flashing for you 🙏🏻

PamelaDoov · 03/03/2022 10:38

@bunnykins123 I was just doing digitals in the morning last month and I got my static one of the mornings, but I’ve also got a box of cheap opks sticks so I can do afternoon and evening too.

Skl2021 · 03/03/2022 10:41

@Bridgey8 it's so consuming 🤯 always something in the back of your head! So hope this gets easier! Sorry to hear your still bleeding it's so triggering hope it stops soon for you 🤞 are you still on progesterone? How are you symptoms? Mine seem to change daily and come and go? X

@arianasky I'm trying 🙈🤞🙌 some days are better than others! X

Hello all, I hope it's ok for me to join you - I've not read through the whole thread but congratulations to those who have recently become pregnant and good luck to everyone waiting and hoping for that BFP. I'm lucky to have a 3.5 year old DD and have been TTC no. 2 since August 2021. I conceived in November, saw a heartbeat at my 8-week scan, but then found out I was having an MMC at 12 weeks. I had surgical management on 4th February and my period came back on Sunday. I'm relieved to see it appear so soon (I have had two negative pregnancy tests, so EPU have said the miscarriage is definitely complete) but a bit anxious about the fact that it is very light, as I've read that can be a symptom of uterine adhesions. My cycle is usually 26 days so I expect to ovulate around this time next week. Not sure how I feel about it all. I'm desperate to be pregnant again but also full of trepidation and anxiety.

PamelaDoov · 03/03/2022 11:15

Has anyone else ever noticed changes to their cycle when taking pregnacare conception vitamins? I’ve never had mid cycle bleeding before, even in my first cycles after giving birth or my first MC. But the last 2 months on this pregnacare, im constantly spotting all over the place, ovulation is delayed and my luteal phase was really short. Could be a coincidence but it seems weird, and a quick Google search shows me similar stories from other people. I’m going to stop using them after this cycle and go back to just folic acid and vitamin D.

Bridgey8 · 03/03/2022 11:45

@Skl2021 I constantly freak out about the symptoms - mine constantly come and go. Yesterday alongside the bleed I didn't feel sick and my boobs were fine and so I convinced myself all was over and obviously I then saw the baby just wiggling about and fine. I spoke to the midwife about it and she said it was totally normal for symptoms to come and go and by this point we should be levelling out so may well start to feel better.. she said not to worry about it at all. Yep still on progesterone - I guess if my bleed was from a burst haematoma then progesterone prob wouldn't stop that. The blood is now brown so hoping I'm just getting rid of the last bits but you're right it's so triggering. Do you think you'll have another scan? When is your 12 week? Xxx

Bridgey8 · 03/03/2022 11:47

@snufkin84 my period after my miscarriage was quite light. I'd heard people say that it was supposed to be really heavy after a miscarriage so I panicked. But here I am... 9 weeks 🤞🏻🤞🏻 and when they scanned they couldn't see any scarring xx

Ganesh2022 · 03/03/2022 12:06

@PamelaDoov not me personally but I've heard that can be a thing with prenatals, not bleeding per se but cycle changes because of the vitamin doses or something like that

PamelaDoov · 03/03/2022 12:13

@Ganesh2022 yeah I’ve read a bit about it today. I’m going to stop taking them after this cycle (if I’m not PG) as I really don’t have time to risk anything messing my cycle up!

Lottie2267 · 03/03/2022 12:21

I did start taking them but only for a few days as I saw some people saying it messed their cycles and I didn’t want to risk it!

bunnykins123 · 03/03/2022 12:27

@PamelaDoov not pregnacare but I know there are other things like Vitex than can make periods / cycles a bit screwy. Is it only pregnacare that you're taking?

@snufkin84 I'm sorry you have bound yourself on this board and to hear about your MMC. You will find lots of support here 💕 we are similar on timelines - I started in Aug last year too but have suffered 3x early miscarriages.

@arianasky exactly the same as me. You've motivated me to up my dose now 😂 yeh I had quite a lot but I had some cloudy EWCM 2DPO too so who knows (probably messed up my cycle this month!) 🤷‍♀️

Tofu35 · 03/03/2022 12:53

@PamelaDoov my cycles used to be erratic but pregnacare regulated them a lot. It's weird how things seem to impact people differently! Hope you find a pre-conception vitamin/combo of vitamins that work for you!
