@bunnykins123 well we’ve done a mix of both ways over the last few days so hopefully one of them works 😄

MrsRosaline · 13/04/2022 10:37

@LuckyMoonstone I got to CD19 and then gave up. No idea if I've ovulated or not. Will wait and see when my period comes. Very strange cycle - I've never not gotten my peak before! Congrats on getting yours! It's ALMOST as exciting as a bfp 😂😂

@bunnykins123 I was feeling sick on CD15 and took a FRER just randomly. I also got a vvvvvvfl but it MUST be an indent because i didn't have any sex until CD10 lol and haven't ovulated since period 🤷🏻‍♀️

LuckyMoonstone · 13/04/2022 11:00

@MrsRosaline haha thank you, it is exciting. I’m still getting ewcm though, I thought it would have dried up by now.
I’ve took FRER tests at totally random times in my cycle too and always get the indents! The last one I could see as soon as I took it out of the packet.

bunnykins123 · 13/04/2022 12:42

@LuckyMoonstone fingers crossed this is your month 🤞 also I get EWCM a few days after O so I don't think that's unusual.

@MrsRosaline SO weird isn't it! I'm going to test after AF has finished to see if I get another vvvvvf line with fmu. I have never had these before when trying in the past. I wonder if they've changed the chemicals or something? But super weird especially as you know at this point your not actually pregnant 🤷‍♀️

LuckyMoonstone · 13/04/2022 12:45

@bunnykins123 thank you :) even if it’s not my month, I’m just happy my body is working as it should (even if it is a bit slow). But I really really hope it is 🤞

calimc83 · 13/04/2022 13:18

@bunnykins123 argh!! I'm in a conundrum. The thought of a scan terrifies me tbh..but we are supposed to go away when I'm 11 weeks. Don't know whether to check all is ok before we go as would hate to have issues abroad 😫 x

Lizm1990 · 13/04/2022 20:10

@LuckyMoonstone fingers crossed for you too 🥰

@calimc83 that’s a tough one as you want to enjoy your time abroad but not be stressing about it either, I don’t envy you!

Girls has anyone had watery blood tinged discharge after AF? I didn’t usually get this before and I’m just hoping I’m not having a weird cycle, as my AF did start and stop too

LuckyMoonstone · 13/04/2022 20:44

@Lizm1990 yes I’ve had that my last 3 cycles, about a week after AF stopped. Like a bleed but thinned out with cm. Only since I had my MC, never before. I don’t know what it means but it’s one of the reasons I’m going to my docs next week.

Sassy144 · 14/04/2022 07:03

@Lizm1990 yes I have had that, but from memory I think I still ovulated as normal that cycle

bunnykins123 · 14/04/2022 08:20

@calimc83 really tough one. I would probably say get a scan a week or so before your holiday? That way, you'll have the reassurance whilst your away and can enjoy your holiday more! How are you feeling anyway? Much sickness yet? Xx

@Lizm1990 no I don't but I do have old blood stained ewcm a few days after AF has finished? Sounds pretty normal if most of us are getting similar!

Lizm1990 · 14/04/2022 12:26

That’s put my mind at ease now thankyou 😊😊

This might sound random but since my surgery for my MMC I’ve been having some kind of liquid coming out of me, on and off and it’s not red stained, just super watery. Enough to wet my pants the width of a golf ball, I’ve never had this before my surgery and last month I got it but today and yesterday it was way more obvious. I’m starting to think my wee pipe has been affected in my surgery, but it doesn’t happen all the time and I don’t feel like needing a pee 🤣🤣😩 has anybody had this after their surgery? If not I think I need to book an appt as I don’t think it’s right, it can’t be CM as I’m only CD8 and it’s not man stuff …. The joys!!!

TTBAM91 · 14/04/2022 12:50

Hi all,
Had my 7 week early scan today and all went well. Heard the heartbeat and I was so relieved.
Of course, an hour later I go to the loo, wipe and there’s blood. I can’t believe it.
It only seems a small amount at least for now but I just feel sick and heartbroken. It’s so unfortunate.

It was an external ultrasound so I know the bleed wasn’t from poking or prodding. I don’t know what to do at all.

calimc83 · 14/04/2022 13:32

@bunnykins123 yeah that's what I'm thinking. Early scans stress me 🙈 I know we work out a pregnancy from date of first LMP but that always puts you around 2 weeks ahead - hate all the 'oh are u sure of your dates debate' . I'm feeling ok, nauseous and tired ( bit of insomnia as well). Called the docs today to get my booking appt 😬. How are u doing? Where abouts are you in your cycle now? Xx

Sassy144 · 14/04/2022 13:36

@TTBAM91 I'm really sorry that has happened, I can only imagine how frustrating that is just after you had your scan. The likelihood is though that everything is fine as you had heard the heartbeat just before - if you're very anxious though could you book another scan or speak to EPU?

Indianna2006 · 15/04/2022 09:12

I’ve discovered I had a mmc a few days ago. 9 weeks only measuring 6. And waiting to see if anything happens on its own.

But as you ladies may have been there, can anyone answer for me whose had to go in as an inpatient for medical management or surgery if you had to do PCR prior to going in? Or a lateral test at home or hospital?

I’m trying to weigh up kids parties I have a weekends and the potential of catching covid and it delaying me getting this sorted out if nothing happens naturally 😫

If you ladies could help answer my queries that would be brilliant.
Hopefully it gets sorted out soon and I can get back to ttc as soon as possible.

LuckyMoonstone · 15/04/2022 09:21

@Indianna2006 I’m very sorry for your loss xx
When I went into hospital with my MC I didn’t have to test at home, they just gave me a test to do there. If I had been positive, it just would’ve meant they had to be more careful, wear more PPE etc. They wouldn’t have sent me away or delayed treatment.
If they are allowing your partner or anyone else to be with you, they may need to do a LF test at home the day before (DH did). Again, they wouldn’t have turned him away if positive, they just needed to know. But it’s probably best to check with your hospital as all trusts are different.

Indianna2006 · 15/04/2022 09:33

@LuckyMoonstone thanks very much. Yes I would check with them next week when I go. Just I needed make decisions about parties this weekend.
But thanks that’s makes sense as I guess unlike something miscarriage and birth can’t wait can it almost.
Women birthing with covid would still need to be there regardless.

I’ll see if anyone else mentions what they have to do from other trusts etc and go from there.
Thank you. Hopefully I can be ttc very soon xx

MO22 · 15/04/2022 11:08

@Indianna2006 so sorry for your loss. I was in London in Dec when I had surgery, I did a PCR test the day before, and not on the day. DH couldnt come in with me, but it was in the throes of omnicron kicking off.

Sadly my friend also had one in Jan and she's in Surrey and she got a scan etc whilst she had covid, they just used PPE.

Hope that helps, thinking of you x

FfayeN · 15/04/2022 12:21

I recent had a MMC. I had to have a PCR at the hospital and then isolate for 4 days until the procedure. I wouldn't have been able to go in if I was positive. I also had to wait 10days for my procedure from the clinic confirming MC also. So sorry for your loss and hope whatever you decide that it goes as well as possible.xx

LuckyMoonstone · 16/04/2022 09:21

4dpo here. Just chugging along impatiently 😆 AF is due Wednesday 27th April but if she doesn’t show I might wait a few extra days until the weekend to test. So basically I’ve still got 2 weeks 🙈

Sassy144 · 16/04/2022 12:11

Hope everyone is able to enjoy the nice weather this weekend :) I have a family BBQ today and trying to have a positive frame of mind as it's the first time I've since my sister since she told me she is pregnant (and due the same time I was) and I'm the only sibling without children so it's always very centred around the little ones, send me some positive vibes please 😂 I've messaged my mum to tell her I'm not drinking but not pregnant, as they always assume I am!

peachiekeen · 16/04/2022 14:15

Oh @Sassy144 I feel for you lovely. When I saw my friend who was due the same time as me recently I nearly threw up cause she looked so obviously pregnant and I wasn't expecting it. I hate that this has also robbed us of announcing a pregnancy unexpectedly to people too. Everyone close to us knows and is just waiting for us to announce it again and each month it doesn't happen it's even worse - especially when you don't drink for something and have to declare 'don't get excited - I'm not pregnant!'. I hope you manage to have a lovely day anyways x

Sassy144 · 17/04/2022 08:19

@peachiekeen thank you lovely 💛 it is such a strong reaction isn't it, and because the dates are the same as mine were it's just a reminder of where I'd be now had things gone differently. I feel bad for my sister too because she does understand how hard it is for me and doesn't talk about it much around me. I did have a nice day though still thank you x

LuckyMoonstone · 17/04/2022 16:02

Is anyone else in the TWW?

Shewhobakes · 17/04/2022 17:12

Yes, I am 3DPO. How about you?

It’s been 6 months since my MC now, reallllly hoping this is the month.
