@RMS0209 haha yep, I am AWFUL with sleep! Hate nights too as I'm a complete morning person, so even when on nights I'll struggle to get more than a couple of hours.

Oh no :( praying you get a sudden spike later today, what CD are you now? Can you DTD tonight and tomorrow morning to try to cover if it it peaks in the next day or two? x

RMS0209 · 26/05/2022 13:26

@alwaysseeingstars well I hope you are taking your days easy until you are back to the grind tonight!
I am cycle day 21 today Sad my plan is to try DTD tonight & tomorrow AM before he leaves... just my luck isnt it x

Hello haven't been here lately as nothing exciting happening. Having a long cycle this month as i am taking these pills that the doc prescribed which are stopping my period so today is my last day on them and then AF should come 2 3 days later and there we go again🤣 oh Lord i am so fed up! But hoping the pills help my short cycles issue. Hoping everyone is doing well xx

Kitty901 · 26/05/2022 14:09

P.S. cd 27 today feels like i haven't had period in ages and miss peeing on sticks now hahaha my cycles are normally 22 23 days long🤣🤦‍♀️

Kitty901 · 26/05/2022 17:20

Yes that one. Hopefully, assuming they are docs and know better 🤷‍♀️
Have another scan in a month time

RMS0209 · 26/05/2022 18:01

@Kitty901 ace! sending lots of luck, I have used them before years ago and they were good. X

OP posts:
Kitty901 · 26/05/2022 18:23

Never used them before or either heard of them but doing what the docs says🤷‍♀️ was reluctant to take it but then my partner said i am not a doctor so there we are🤣

RMS0209 · 26/05/2022 18:42

@Kitty901 haha love the support and wise words! X

@Kitty901 haha that made me laugh!
Ahh @RMS0209 I am so frustrated for you re the opks! Come on peak!
DH away all the rest of this week and then hopefully the start of my fertile week next week some time but knowing my luck I'll have some stupidly early CD9 ovulation while he's away or something!

Hjudge56 · 26/05/2022 19:30

Sending big fingers crossed to you @RMS0209 that your peak is going to turn up any second!!!

Hjudge56 · 26/05/2022 19:37

@alwaysseeingstars yes just hard I guess we all compare! I feel like I see most people on here get their positives by 11DPO or at least a faint one! Just so up and down at this point!

MrsGrealish · 26/05/2022 22:56

Well ladies I got my dye stealer after nearly 5 days of bleeding. Might have to get the doctors involved now 😩

Tropicana1 · 26/05/2022 23:02

Oh @MrsGrealish how confusing! I have heard of people bleeding in early pregnancy - is there an EPU near you that can do sequential HCG blood tests to see if all is well and it's still rising?
Got everything crossed for you!

MrsGrealish · 26/05/2022 23:08

@Tropicana1 I'll probably ring my doctor tomorrow who will hopefully give me a letter to get seen by epu. Otherwise it's a@e and I'm not in any real pain now so hate wasting their time xx I've had an early loss before and the test faded almost instantly🤷‍♀️

MrsGrealish · 26/05/2022 23:41

DH went straight out to Tesco and got a weeks indicator..2-3 defo doctor tomorrow xx

@MrsGrealish oh my goodness I'm cautiously optimistic for you!! Really hope you get good news!!!

MrsGrealish · 27/05/2022 01:27

@Catred4 I'm an absolute mess. Had stopped taking the pregnancy vitamins, took one there and vomited it back up again. I'm still bleeding so I'm gonna be mortified tomorrow if they scan me. And it's my birthday. I'm thinking maybe ectopic? Or something weird. I get a pain under my right hip sometimes. I'm never going to get to sleep tonight 😞

PeanuttyButter · 27/05/2022 08:18

@MrsGrealish you're doing the right thing getting checked out. My last pregnancy I had bleeding like that but HCG was rising and it turned out to be ectopic/Pregnancy of unknown location. Thinking of you.

PeanuttyButter · 27/05/2022 08:23

Not ready to leave this group yet guys, hope you don't mind me sticking around. Everytime ive joined the pregnancy boards I've miscarried so I'm staying over on this side.

Had a scan yesterday at 7+2/6+5 depending on how you officially date it and baby was measuring 6+4 with good heartbeat. Consultant isn't concerned and when I told her the situation she said we should use 6+5 for the scans until I get to my 12 week scan. Still extremely nervous about it all. My husband is absolutely beaming and wants to tell people but I can't get excited. If I make it past 7 weeks developmentally il feel better but all my miscarriages (including my missed ones) have resulted in baby dying at 6 plus something.
Also got a strange cramp sensation this morning in my pelvic region. It's either stretching, a big poo or something concerning.

Wishing you all the best on this group, I'm hoping you all get your BFPs soon xx
