@Prayingformyrainbow93 I'm sorry to hear about your chemical. Totally understand your reasons for not testing. I wish I could just wait for AF but regardless of medication, I'm too impatient.

@arianasky took first dose of 150mg aspirin tonight!

@Lottie2267

Managed to see the doctor today and had confirmed chemical pregnancy. We are gonna TTC again as soon as we can, hopefully third time lucky 🤞🏼 Just wondering if you guys have any tips for TTC. We usually dtd every day on my fertile week but for next time I’m thinking maybe every other day? It’s just getting a bit much and takes the enjoyment out of it a little. Anything else you gals recommend doing? 🤍
So sorry to hear about your chemical, so disappointing :( hope you're doing ok!

We're going to start trying again but when we conceived with my miscarriage baby we d2d every other day then the day before, of and after ovulation. So as an example if I was to ovulate on a Sunday I'd d2d

  • Tuesday
  • Thursday
  • Saturday
  • Sunday
  • Monday

It still feels like a lot though but worked before and we conceived on the first cycle but it could have just been luck

@PamelaDoov now you have said about pregnacare I think I’m going to not take mine and take folic acid instead.

I’ve had a couple of shitty days at work and feeling it today, someone who reports to me told me my manager asked her am I a hindrance whilst I was signed off from the MMC it’s upset me a lot as I feel like it’s a real insult to what I’ve been through. Had a little cry earlier and I’m going to raise it in work as it’s not right and I’ve lost all trust now. I felt like she supported me when I was off but to find this out hurts. I’m just trying to not let it get to me so much so I can have a positive mindset when TTC 😔 I keep thinking work is not the priority, it’s so far down the pecking order of what I want!

PamelaDoov · 03/03/2022 22:43

@MrsRosaline really? Crazy! I’m definitely gonna stop taking it now, I’m confident I can get everything I need from diet plus folic acid alone.

@Lizm1990 that’s such a shame, I’m so sorry someone at work made you feel like that. I had a similar situation with a colleague a couple of weeks ago, his comments really upset me. I don’t think I can ever go back to having a good working relationship with him. I’ve started working from home now so I don’t have to face the office, is that an option for you?

PamelaDoov · 03/03/2022 23:17

Opks are still rubbish but all day I’ve had on-and-off mild pain where i imagine my left ovary is…
Every single physical symptom of ovulation is spot on but I cannot get a positive OPK!

Lottie2267 · 04/03/2022 05:12

Thank you @bunnykins123 and @LittleMrsMama I think we will do every other day next time and maybe deffo on the day of ovulation. Both times I’ve been pregnant we dtd every day but both have ended in mc or mmc. I am tempted not to even test for ovulation and just do it every other day but I don’t know if I will be able to! We will see.

Hope everyone else is ok today and not struggling too much with the tww etc. Hoping you all get your positive tests soon xxx

Lottie2267 · 04/03/2022 05:13

Also, I had 4 weeks off when I had a MMC. Take as much time as you need. It’s awful that some people at your work aren’t supportive but just try and remember that’s their problem not yours and like you say, work is far down the pecking order of what’s important to you. I’ve been getting stressed with work recently which probably isn’t helping me, so I need to remember this too. Hope you’re ok xxx

MrsRosaline · 04/03/2022 05:41

@PamelaDoov I switched to wild nutrition fertility and no side effects at all, really like them, but they are more expensive.

@Lottie2267 I also did it every day, sometimes twice and both ended in miscarriage. I wonder if it's a thing. Although it worked four years ago when I had my daughter...

speake · 04/03/2022 06:26

@aesgriff thinking of you today, hope all goes well at your scan 🙏🏼🤞🏼 Virtual hugs xx

Sassy144 · 04/03/2022 07:11

My temp is up a bit this morning so think I ovulated yesterday (CD12), I had cramps and twinges too so makes sense. That's really early for me so we only dtd cd 8, 11 and 12. Do you think that's enough or should we try one more for luck today 😂

Cruz86 · 04/03/2022 07:13

Good luck today @aesgriff, thinking of you ❤️

@Sassy144 I'd do one more for luck 😂 but helloooo TWW!! xx

Bridgey8 · 04/03/2022 07:14

@aesgriff thinking of you today. Got everything crossed 💕💕💕

aesgriff · 04/03/2022 07:33

Thank you for thinking of me @speake @Cruz86 @Bridgey8 xxx
Super nervous. Had a wild dream last night that my FIL who passed a few years ago visited me and told me that no matter what way it went it was going to be ok and that’s wherever there was an empty seat it’s because he was sitting on it and it brought me some comfort ♥️

Here’s hoping 🤞🏻 Xx

Cruz86 · 04/03/2022 07:34

Oh wow, that must have been so emotional @aesgriff 🤗🤗 xxx

HoneyLemon29 · 04/03/2022 07:37

@Lottie2267 Id try every other day - mainly for your sanity!

@aesgriff good luck today lovely! I'm thinking of you - keep us updated but I'm sure all with be perfect with beanie 💕

Ganesh2022 · 04/03/2022 08:52

@aesgriff what a poignant dream. I'll be thinking of you this morning.

Ganesh2022 · 04/03/2022 08:54

Haven't read back in the thread since yesterday but I think someone was asking how often to DTD? If I made that up, ignore me lol. I was told every 4 days (so two days in between) until peak and then basically "as much as humanly possible" provided sperm is ok. I found that easier than every other day as that just got too much for us and it put huge pressure on my DH. But...neither of us has the highest drive so others might feel differently!

HoneyLemon29 · 04/03/2022 09:07

Does anyone on here remember who it was that took the Medicheck progesterone test 7 days before their period and the results came back as "uncertain" of ovulation occurred? X

ArcEnCiel2022 · 04/03/2022 09:09

@aesgriff Thinking of you today. Your dream must have been really moving. My mum passed when I was 18. Since then, in all the most difficult moments of my life I had the same kind of dreams of her visiting me to comfort me and give me strength 💖

aesgriff · 04/03/2022 09:12

Girls I can’t believe I’m writing this but there’s a baby with a HEARTBEAT!!!! We’ve never made it this far 🥰 can’t stop crying. The consultant said he was expecting a miscarriage. I’m measuring about a day behind but who cares there was a heartbeat 💓

Thank you so much for all of your kind words. I was expecting the worst.. I’m still bleeding and just though that was that. Wow I can’t believe it xxx

aesgriff · 04/03/2022 09:12

Will reply to all of your messages when we’re home.. looks like I’ve got a lot to catch up on!!! Xxx
