@bunnykins123 definitely an evap or indent I'm afraid. I couldn't see that when I took the first photo of the cheapy and then when I looked later I also couldn't see anything. And today (10dpo) has also brought another IC bfn and my temps don't look encouraging, so I think it's a case of put the tests down and wait for AF on Weds. But at least it means I should be shot of her in time for my birthday 🤞

mummatara · 17/07/2022 10:17

@pangolin84 big hugs lovely 🤗

Indianna2006 · 17/07/2022 19:23

9dpo.. just had a check of my cervix and found blood mixed in with my CM. Checked my temp. Still high. So don’t think it’s early period. Also I never get early period. Always 13 days.

i never get spotting! Only cycle I got weird spotting was cycle I had the chemical…

now I have false hope it’s implantation bleeding as 9dpo would seem about right?!

ugh man! Friday is gonna be a long wait! Must add u got no spotting or implantation bleeding with any other pregnancy. Been pregnant 3 times. Only with the chemical.

Astar21 · 17/07/2022 19:52

@Indianna2006 oh fingers crossed for you that it is implantation 🙏🏼 In my 2nd pregnancy in April I had a small amount of red blood at 8dpo. I thought it was AF appearing but the next day it turned into a small amount of brown spotting and then stopped. I got a bfp at 12dpo. Didn't have it in my 1st pregnancy, so doesn't seem to be a pattern

Indianna2006 · 17/07/2022 19:55

@Astar21 no that’s what I’m thinking. No pattern.

not sure what to make of it. It’s unusual for me for sure. But also haven’t had it in all pregnancies either. Time will tell I guess.

I feel a bit crampy as well. Ever so slightly like cogs are turning in there. And I did a bit last night as well. If that description makes any sense to anyone..😂

Astar21 · 17/07/2022 21:07

@Indianna2006 checked back at my symptoms at the time and I also had mild lower cramps! It's hard, you don't want to get too hopeful as it's so disappointing if AF does arrive. Are you going to test in a couple of days?

MrsGrealish · 17/07/2022 21:24

@Indianna2006 honestly it's like mind games at this point. Stay strong and hold out a few days 😘 I really feel for you though. I haven't even followed my own advice 🙄

EsmeSusanOgg · 17/07/2022 21:31

Hi all, had a miscarriage at 12 weeks yesterday. Was second pregnancy (first was successful, he's 3.5). It was pretty horrific. I'm on holiday. I had to have a D&C, not sure when I can try again. I'm about to turn 38 and have low ovarian reserve. But obviously feeling both physically and emotionally fragile.

calimc83 · 17/07/2022 22:35

@Indianna2006 definitely sounds like something is going on...good luck 🍀keep us updated! Hope everyone is doing ok?? Feeling like a little lost soul at the moment..darent join any other boards incase i jinx myself 😩 xx

theblueflowers · 18/07/2022 07:08

Morning all!

So typical, I have peaked on OPKs the day that we are on a long haul flight. It's exactly the same day as last cycle, which I know for most people is completely normal, but with such irregular cycles it's actually blown my mind!

We dtd last night, and will have to get straight on it when we get to our hotel. DH did suggest joining the mile high club!

I've also made the decision to not bring a pregnancy test with me. I will still be temping though so will have an idea what's going on. I don't know if this is a good idea or not! We are returning the day my period will be due...

I'm really hoping that this holiday will be the perfect TWW distraction!

@calimc83 lovely to hear from you, and hope you are coping during what is such an anxious time. Totally get not wanting to join another board for those reasons. The pregnant after a MC thread was the only one I could ever face joining.

calimc83 · 18/07/2022 07:26

@theblueflowers have an amazing holiday! Sounds like u are away at the best time...u should definitely join the mile high club! 😆 I'm ok, dreading my first scan in less than 2 weeks though 😬 x

Indianna2006 · 18/07/2022 08:00

@EsmeSusanOgg welcome. Sorry for your loss.

@calimc83 yes totally understand not wanting to join other boards. I feel even looking at it jinxes it. And also any baby apps. I’ve done they both times and both time lost it. And now will never be downloading any like it’s some superstitious thing.

@theblueflowers have a lovely holiday. I reckon last night and tonight would easily be enough. Enjoy and I’m sure your 2ww will be fast xx

@EsmeSusanOgg sorry for your loss 💕 we're here for support if you need us. I found the first few weeks very hard but it has got a little better. How are you feeling today?

@calimc83 hope you're ok!

@theblueflowers have a lovely holiday I think it could make the TWW fly by 🤞🏼

EsmeSusanOgg · 18/07/2022 13:18

Thanks @mummatara - I am more physically out of it today (TMI, but my bowels are NOT happy). I was getting emotional and slightly recriminating myself before running my discharge paperwork through Google translate (I'm on holiday, in Spain). The info there seemed to indicate that the loss happened a few weeks ago, but it took a couple.of weeks forthe hormones to drop for my body to realise what was going on. I feel slightly better knowing that, as all the 'oh god, should I have gone here in hot weather.' or 'oh god, did it happen when I twisted my ankle slightly,' or 'oh god, that extra coffee one day last week must be to blame,' are all post whenever it must have happened. There was literally nothing I did/ could have done differently. So I'm still sad, but no longer blaming myself. If that makes sense? I also was pretty unwell, so my husband and I made a savvy call sending me to the hospital when we did. Won't go into details, but better that the worst happened surrounded by kind and caring medics.

We do both know we want to still try for number 2 though. Just think I need to get myself physically and emotionally into a bit of shape over the next couple of weeks.

Also, really hoping the dodgy guts thing stops soon.

curliegirlie · 18/07/2022 13:31

@EsmeSusanOgg welcome and sorry you have to join our not so merry band, especially having to deal with it abroad.

@calimc83 good to hear from you, completely understand about not wanting to join other threads yet...

Pfft, I wish I hadn't used my last FRER the other day. I used my last IC this morning (11dpo) and think I can possibly see a shadow, but I think I have complete line eyes from staring at tests so much...at least with a FRER at 11dpo there would be no debate as it would be fairly obvious. I think I've just become a pro at picking up the indent 🙄

My temps seem a bit erratic atm so not very helpful in talking me down from this silly hope!

Currently cycle 4 post miscarriage.

MrsGrealish · 18/07/2022 15:22

@Indianna2006 how u feeling today?
Im out AF started this morning exactly when it was meant too. I've spent the morning researching fertility clinics not that DH would ever agree. Also we didnt really try properly. I was planning to give it a few more weeks but it's still shit when AF turns up

@calimc83 I hope you're feeling ok? I found it hard when I got pregnant in May and couldn't really talk to anyone in a similar position then I miscarried anyway 😞

@EsmeSusanOgg I'm really sorry for your loss. I have no words it's such a heartache 💔

@curliegirlie I've been torturing myself with ICs too but AF arrival has put an end to that.

Indianna2006 · 18/07/2022 15:32

@MrsGrealish feeling pretty normal today. 10dpo but just ignoring where I am really and just trying carry on as normal. Not that I’d bother symtom spotting cos I don’t real believe in it. Not with me anyway. Only knew I was pregnant first time. Other ones I’ve never had early symptoms and never been any the wiser until I took tests.

sorry AF showed up. It is always such a kick in the gut whatever.
it’s such a realm of unknown of how long it will take. A few cycles. Several. It’s hard to stay logical amongst all of it.

I can’t see us being this lucky this quickly but who knows hey. None of ttc makes any sense to me tbh 🤷🏻‍♀️

mummatara · 18/07/2022 16:24

@EsmeSusanOgg oh gosh sounds horrible for you! I def had a bit of a crap was it because of this and that that I had done but all highly unlikely.

@MrsGrealish sorry AF turned up it truly sucks.

I'm CD8 today and looks like I won't have a short cycle this time opks are low currently. Not that I want to DTD in this heat so grateful for that 😂

LuckyMoonstone · 18/07/2022 16:36

I’m cd16 but I don’t feel like ovulation is close. No ewcm at all. Opks won’t go past about 0.3. Last month was CD18 so I guess see what happens in the next couple of days. I’m not feeling it though.

MrsGrealish · 18/07/2022 17:06

Gotta a dye stealer on my lateral flow though👍🏼😭

mummatara · 18/07/2022 17:14

@MrsGrealish oh bloody hell 🙈 how do you feel? I've had it twice now 🙄
