TTC chat thread 4

[Tropicana1]

New thread ladies as were nearly at 1000 and I don't want to lose you guys 😂

@alwaysseeingstars awww😍 it's overwhelming isn't it 💕

@MrsCristianoX ooo yes ease update us when you do!
@alwaysseeingstars thank you, DD has settled in really well to be fair, I was quite impressed! She likes the new house 😊 it's just taking a while for us to sort it all out with working full time too.
Aww lovely, that sounds so nice! How far along are you now?

@MamaSJ15 I actually managed to flood a test this morning (never done this in my life) and as I was looking at it trying to make out any kind of line, my back pain started and I though f**k it not wasting another. I'm all heavy and backachey now (if that's not a word it should be!) Any time I POAS it ends up with nothing. I'll try again tomorrow. See attached flooded test 🙄 expecting AF tomorrow

Ladies AF has arrived. Started spotting just there. Bring on cycle 6 😭💪

@MrsCristianoX i am very sorry to hear. I don’t think I’m far behind you… 7dpo and jusy not hopeful this cycle at all!

@Hjudge56 ah don't say that!! I got to Saturday and I knew somehow. Perhaps my rage. Wishing you all the luck lovely ❤️

@MrsCristianoX its just very hard for me to tell I supposed as I always seem to get cramps etc post ovulation!

@Hjudge56 I feel for you. I was like that last cycle and it wasn't pleasant. Ovulation to 8dpo horrible cramps kept me awake to 4am. This cycle not so much but still didn't get pregnant. I took a course of doxycycline because I was convinced I had something wrong like endometrisis (like inflammation of the uterus probably not spelt correctly). Tbh it helped the cramps but not conception 🤷‍♀️

Not sure what to add now. Girls on miscarriage board swear by something called fertilily ?

@MrsCristianoX yesh they’re not very painful. Yesterday and had a few mild cramps but today I haven’t had anything so that’s good! Just sometimes makes me feel quite fatigued!

oh that is interesting! I’m only taking general supplements and folic acid nor anything else pregnancy related.

@Hjudge56 I thought the multiple internal scans I was given had caused infection so I work with the doctors and they said it couldn't hurt. Didn't even examine me 🤷‍♀️

Fertilily is a device. Google it. I might get one not to sure how to get one and not freak DH out 😂

@MrsCristianoX oh I am sorry AF arrived.
I'm really hoping the 'less is more approach' works for us this cycle as we only DTD once but it was a good timed DTD. AF due on the weekend

@MamaSJ15 less must be more. I DTD once in May and conceived. I could never even attempt SMEP. I think I might die 😂

@MamaSJ15 I'm really hoping you get good news..all the luck in the world ❤️

@MrsCristianoX thank you 🤞

@MrsCristianoX sorry af arrived 😭 been having mumsnet app issues on my phone so not managed to get on since your last test and was really hoping for a strong positive for you. Onto the next!

@MamaSJ15 good luck for the weekend! When will you test?

I've got my 12 week scan on Sunday and telling myself my nausea will just magically disappear immediately afterwards 🤣

@Tropicana1 o my!! That has flown in. You'll get to see the reason you feel so sick and it will be so worth it xx

I am going to go mad with vitamins this month and actually take them and wait for it..bought a bloody fertility cup! That'll be a joy to use. I'm actually ok I knew on Saturday with the pms rage just annoyed coz I got a good peak and seemed to time it right. Obviously not. Or it was a bag egg. I wish there were more answers without paying a fortune 🙁

@Tropicana1 gonna give them to DH too. He loves a vitamin 😂

@MamaSJ15 glad she's settling in well! 😊 I'm 13+3 today.
@MrsCristianoX obviously I have no idea how to know if it helped but I was just using the seven seas trying for a baby vitamins, OH was taking Holland & Barrett 'Ultra Man' as they covered all his general a-z vits as well as some fertility ones, and we used Conceive Plus lube the two times we tried that cycle (hadn't used it before that). Don't know if that's helpful!!

@Tropicana1 I have no idea 🙈 hoping to wait until Sunday but who knows if I'll have the willpower! I have a short luteal phase though so it's silly of me to test any earlier because not enough time has passed!
@alwaysseeingstars oh wow that's gone so fast!

After two conversations with doctors today, I'm going to have to put a pin in ttc. I wish you girls all the luck in the world ❤️ feel quite sad weirdly. I don't know you ladies at all but feel like I do Xx

@MrsCristianoX oh 😔 I'm so sorry to hear that lovely, I hope you're ok otherwise?? xx

@alwaysseeingstars oh no don't worry Im not on the verge of death it's just with my previous stroke and recent blood tests I need treatment which the doctors were ok to withhold until today when I rang to ask about results. Now it's you need this, we can't overlook 🤷‍♀️ I'm also on a waiting list for heart surgery but with covid I could be waiting a while 😅 I have 3 beautiful children I'm all good Xx

@MrsCristianoX oh I'm so sorry, that's rubbish news! I feel like I know you too to be honest! If you'd like to keep in touch then we could always WhatsApp, but I understand if you'd rather not, and to move on easier. ❤️

@MamaSJ15 omg yea this feels as bad as a breakup. I've been in tears most of the day. I'm out for 8 weeks. And a fertility cup delivered today ...cheers Amazon. I'll dm you 😘

@MrsCristianoX I'm not surprised, I would be too. Always bad timing isn't it! So is this a break from TTC or a stop altogether? I haven't had a DM, just in case you'd sent one 🙈
