@Lottie2267 I've had 3 consecutive early miscarriages so I registered with a fertility clinic and just asked for some (no tests done). They prescribed me some (you'll have a real fight to get them off the GP without having it recommended by specialists). I don't know (or actually even think) I have low progesterone but basically just throwing everything at it. The consensus is that it doesn't hurt so 🤷‍♀️

@mrsmw132 you're 1 day ahead of me! Absolutely no symptoms whatsoever 🙄 when will you test again?

Most likely tomorrow. My pregnancy in November I got a BfP on day 11 but I hadn't tested on 9 or 10.
I'm just a bit crampy.
So emotional. Things at work that usually wouldn't bother me are making me well up.
As this is our first IUI after our missed miscarriage I'm trying to stay calm and not pressure myself.
I got recommended the 'pregnancy after loss' book - I'm hoping I'll get to use it soon.

Ah I can't believe it took a one step OPK as I only have 2 easy@home left and it's peak 😭 my easy@home have gone lighter and I had my peak on CB Wednesday evening so over 48 hours ago! Im stressing as I haven't DTD today and won't be able to either scared I'll have no chance this month now 😞

aesgriff · 04/03/2022 22:20

@Lottie2267 they’ve brought out new guidance following Tommy’s research that you can be prescribed progesterone if you have had a previous miscarriage and have bleeding in a ‘viable’ pregnancy. So I had to have a progesterone blood test (which they said was good) then once they confirmed the sac was in the uterus I asked for them and they prescribed them. I’m not sure if I necessarily ‘need’ them but here we are xx

@arianasky that’s so strange 😞 ugh I really feel for you!!! Xx

arianasky · 04/03/2022 22:26

@aesgriff ergh I'm gutted sounds so silly but I've been testing every day since CD8 and feel like I've blown it now 😞 god knows if Wednesday and Thursday will have been enough I just have to hope it is I won't even be a for to DTD tomorrow either 😞

bunnykins123 · 04/03/2022 22:54

@mrsmw132 I'm so sorry about your mmc, it's hard and I think we put so much pressure on ourselves to be pregnant again as quickly as possible. Good luck testing tomorrow 🤞 keep us updated.

@arianasky how weird. As in properly darker than control? I've used multiple lh brand strips in the past and always get different readings. I'd say trust the CB monitor - they are pretty accurate! In fact my CB monitor always shows peak before lh strips 🤷‍♀️

Sassy144 · 05/03/2022 06:21

@arianasky how annoying, I'm sorry. I'm sure weds and Thurs will cover you though, when I got pregnant before, I'd only dtd 2+3 days before ovulation as I miscalculated.

Lottie2267 · 05/03/2022 07:45

Thank you @bunnykins123 and @aesgriff I think we will try again and if I have a third one then I will book private.

Aww I hope you’re ok @mrsmw132 I’m keeping everything crossed for you!

Hope you’re ok @arianasky I know how you feel. Try not to worry, they say it’s better to dtd before and you’ve done plenty so fingers crossed one will be hanging around ready to meet the egg.

Hope you’re all ok xxx

Cruz86 · 05/03/2022 08:18

I'm sure the few days discrepancy is because it's hard to get an accurate measurement early on @Skl2021. Have you been given your 12 week scan date?

@bunnykins123 yeah I understand what you mean but I guess, the way I see it is, it's a good thing that you're taking progesterone and still don't have any symptoms - it really shows that you just can't tell at this stage!

@arianasky I don't think you're meant to test with different branded opks because it can do this. It doesn't make sense why but I'd definitely go with your cb and easy @ home ones which means you're definitely covered. And if you are ovulating around now, you're still in with a very good chance!

Xx

Thanks @Lottie2267 It's been a bit of a rough ride. With NHS Scotland we get six IUI. We are so eternally grateful. We got pregnant on round 3, and the mmc 8 weeks later. Part of my brain is trying not to this of the finality of only two more rounds. However- I have a very very very very very very faint positive today. A real squinted, so much so I think I'm making it up. I've ordered some EPT from Amazon today. My wife doesn't know about all the early testing- or pretends not to for her own sanity!
bunnykins123 · 05/03/2022 09:07

@mrsmw132 oh wow, I'm really hoping it's a bfp for you! Would you like us to be your line eyes for you?

@Cruz86 I agree - I think I just had a bit of a wobble yesterday. I think the 2ww is torture because you constantly thinking 'am I, aren't I'?! I will just test at 12dpo and wait for AF. At least I know progesterone doesn't make my body go all crazy with symptoms!

@Lottie2267 totally agree with that. I actually think testing causes more anxiety! Fingers crossed you won't have to go down that route.

Cruz86 · 05/03/2022 09:16

Ooh would you like us to be your line eyes @mrsmw132? 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I know @bunnykins123, the TWW is such a headf**ck. How are you feeling today?

Xx
