Sorry if I forgot anyone ❤️ also hope I've done this right 😂

glad I found this group again @mummatara hope you enjoy your honeymoon good luck to everyone I still can’t dtd but I love watching this group gives me hope x

Ah girls if I'm like this when I'm ovulating (right ovary is defo pinging) god help me in labour (obviously praying I get that far 🙏🙏) 'if it's bigger than a thumb I can't do it!!!'

@Indianna2006 look at that line ❤️ solid as a rock..congrats again xx

@MrsCristiano thanks lovely! Well if you’re ovulating now you’ve done your but u reckon. We missed ovulation day and I thought admit. We just couldn’t muster it. But didn’t make a difference. So have a rest and don’t worry.
i can get such bad ovulation pains I can’t dtd then either. Normally mine is gone after 2/3 hours though

Ffs I can’t even type. I meant if your ovulating now you’ve done your bit. And I thought dammit when we missed ovulation day.

fat fingers 😂🙈

@mrs yay for ovulation! Even if it is painful 😅 hope I’m not far behind, I’ve had more ewcm today which is good. OPK is only 0.17 tonight but that’s what it was the evening before my peak last time

@MrsCristiano meant to tag you in that, not just Mrs 😂

@Indianna2006 @luckymoonstone I was fine last night til he angered the beast of the ovary. Tonight it feels like please don't come near me! Settling now..I hope 🤞

@LuckyMoonstone ooh hope your ov comes tomorrow then!

@MrsCristiano I have ended up in a&e not once but twice because I saw the doc for baaaaaad ov pain and they thought I had appendicitis! Both times dh had angered it dtd. On the bright side, the first time was the cycle I conceived ds so hopefully this is it for you too! Second time was last month then hopefully we’ve fallen for real this month so definitely a positive thing in my experience! Plus WHEN you get to being in labour, just have all the drugs and it’s not so bad 😂 xxx

@AwayWeGoAgain aww thank you for telling me that! I feel so much better knowing someone somewhere has pain like it and I'm not a weird case 😘

@LuckyMoonstone hopefully those wee OPKs pick up tomorrow..they can drive u mad 🤪 mine I think was 0.1 something 2 days ago and now l think it's over at last xx good luck lovely 🥰

Hope you're all ok ladies.
Just marking my place!

I joined you a couple of weeks ago but still waiting for af after mc 10 weeks ago now. No bfp and no positive opk's ready to give up tracking as I'm just feeling so hopeless all the time as it didn't take long for af to arrive after mc 1.

I'm going to catch up and read this thread now I've found you again!

Thanks for the tag @mummatara, I totally missed this and duplicated the thread 🤦‍♀️ I've asked Mumsnet if they will remove the one I created to avoid confusion!

@MrsCristiano omg hun, I get it BAD. I asked on the thread a while ago about whether other people get it too. I went to a consultant a couple of months ago to discuss it actually and I had a hysteroscopy (camera up ya foof) to check for scarring avec womb (all clear) and I'm having a mri next month as he said it could either 1. Totally normal 2. Adhesions due to c section 3. Endometriosis (I have really normal, fairly pain free periods so not sure if it's that). None of these show on ultrasounds. My pain builds up and then on O day i feel loads of pressure in my back and bloat like a house. Anyhoo - just thought I'd reassure you (was that reassuring 🤔?) but also let you know you're defo not alone.

@AwayWeGoAgain those lines are clear as day! I totally understand your concern but in my view, they look super positive and juicy!

@LuckyMoonstone great news about the tests! It must be nice to know you're getting some answers!

@bunnykins123 yes I remember you asking this right enough. Last night was the worst it's ever been but yes to the bloating and yes to the pain that kept me up most of last night. Backache but I have a tilted uterus and get back ache period pains and labour. I've never had a c section I figured it was my cranky old reproductive system gearing up to ovulate. 🙄 it was not pleasant at all xx

Hey, hope it’s okay to join.

I had a MMC with baby #2, found out at our 12 week scan on 26th July followed by surgical management on 28th July. Negative pregnancy tests since and now past the 3 weeks no sex due to risk of infection window.

Got pregnant both times in cycle 1 - very lucky!

I know the advice of waiting for your first period until TTC again but given that’s down to making dating a pregnancy we have started TTC. Fairly sure I ovulated last week - EWCM and usual pain I get with ovulation. Just seeing how things go before beginning testing/tracking ovulation.

Had symptoms both times before BFP so very hard not to symptom spot now, yday & today I’ve felt/been sick, sore boob, bad skin and creamy white discharge. Don’t want to get my hopes up as it is very early.

@mummatara ahh glad u are ok! That's exciting re symptoms. How many weeks are u now? I'm ok..still a bit of an anxious mess but just waiting to get through my 12 week scan now 😬 xx

Hi @ready4rainbow, I’m so sorry you’re still waiting, that sounds really hard. Have you spoken to your epau or your gp about it? It can be totally normal for cycles to take ages to resume but maybe they can give you some reassurance or a scan to check what’s going on in there? I wouldn’t worry too much about the opks for now, I think lots of us on here didn’t ovulate until after our first af anyway and you don’t want to stress yourself out any more than you have to. Sending virtual hugs.

Welcome to the group @ER20, I’m sorry for your loss. I had a similar experience of a mmc and it sucked. Glad you’re feeling recovered enough to ttc though, good luck this cycle!

Hope you’re feeling a bit better this morning @MrsCristiano! Hope today is ov day @LuckyMoonstone!

Update from me: I did not test this morning and I’m going to try really hard not to test again until Sunday (a week after first bfp) then do another digi with weeks to check for progress or lack thereof. Otherwise I will spend the next 5 days while I’m not at work poas constantly and being stressed and worried about how dark my lines are (or aren’t!) and if it’s another cp there is nothing I can do to stop that anyway so I might as well not see it coming from 5 days away 😂 I am also going to make a real effort to stop googling EVERYTHING to see if I’m “normal”. I’ve been doing it constantly and it is equal parts reassuring and stress-inducing so I figure that evens out to no point at all. Obviously I will be still be here keeping track of you lovely ladies though!

The end, thank you for reading my essay of a post and sorry it was so long xxx

@AwayWeGoAgain that sounds like a plan!! Can't change the outcome and yesterday's tests look perfect.

I'm back at work and have brought one tiny OPK with me to test at lunch (just to check) but I feel loads better. DH slept in the spare room last night so I got full uninterrupted sleep!

@ready4rainbow sorry it's taking so long for af to turn up, that sucks. Hopefully it'll make an appearance soon!

@ER20 so sorry to read about your loss. I haven't waited for my first period post-MC either and currently 4DPO, trying not to symptom spot 😄 how many dpo are you?

@AwayWeGoAgain well done for not testing! Incredible willpower 😆 I'm also trying not to Google anything, I basically interpret whatever I read in whatever way I like to fit my mood which isn't helpful 🤣

@MrsCristiano I have a tilted uterus too. Snapsies! Maybe that explains it? Either way I don't actually think it's anything to worry about and I do agree, it's probably age related. Good luck testing today 🤞

@MrsCristiano @bunnykins123 well I’ve always gotten ovulation pain ever since I was young teenager and got periods so can’t be age related for me. But I do also had a tilted uterus backwards 🤷🏻‍♀️Maybe that’s it.
I always feel it. Back ache I always get with periods and labour too. Sometimes it’s more like a bad stitch. And other times it can be horrendous and really really bloody hurt. But mine is short lived. Half a day and it will be gone usually.

how strange lol!

@AwayWeGoAgain that CB looks like a dye stealer. Have you tried a FRER instead of IC strip so see how dark the pink line is on that. Have you been having cramps or bleeding? Fingers tightly crossed for you that everything progresses nicely for you. Would your doctors do HCG tests to put your mind at ease?

@ChloeN ChloeN sorry you're joining us under the circumstances! I found I ovulated a lot earlier this month after my MC last month. Normally my cycles are looong but (I think) I ovulated CD15

@LuckyMoonstone glad you’ve been listened too. I’ve found recently listening to people, doctors don’t really want to listen atm they just want to throw meds at people and let that be the end.

@Talia11 sorry you’ve had to join us and had to go through the worst!

@MrsCristiano yay for ovulating! Fingers crossed you don’t have to see another penis for a while 😂

@ER20 sorry you’re joining us! Fingers crossed for you, symptoms sound promising!

im currently 12dpo but not testing. Tested negative both 7dpo and 10dpo so I’ve little hope anyway 😂 I think my hormones are all over the place this month after the MC, feel like AF is impending and to top it off I’ve a 15 hour duty today. I’m cabin crew but since covid Ive found we’ve so many more disruptive passengers so if someone is cheeky to me today I’ll either cry or shout back with how I’m feeling today 😂🤷🏼‍♀️

Hmm OPK is the same this morning as it was last night, 0.17… I suppose at least it’s not going down? Maybe it’ll be another few days

Morning ladies and hello to everyone new sorry for your losses 💕

@calimc83 I'm sure I'll be a big ball of anxiety by the time I get to 12 week scan too 🙈 it's only natural you've gotta be kind to yourself ❤️ I'm 6+3 today patiently waiting for my appointments to come through the post. I feel absolutely rotten today like I've been on a bender until 4am without all the fun 😂

@AwayWeGoAgain you are a brave lady ❤️ it's so hard to wait and test you got this 💪🏼

@LuckyMoonstone @MrsCristiano I hope those pesky opks behave themselves for you!

I feel like I've missed loads of messages 🙈 I spent last night working until 11.30 still haven't packed a single thing and I currently have no idea how I'm going to get everything done before Friday 😭 it's a good job we managed to get a bun in the oven because there would actually be zero time for any funny business atm 😂

@LuckyMoonstone it's so frustrating I've just peed on the only one I brought to work and will have to slope away and check it🙄

@MrsCristiano haha I take opks to work sometimes 😂 I have a little plastic cup in my handbag that came with an old box of pregnancy tests 😆
