@Tropicana1 you know that saying 'if it doesn't bring you joy then throw it away?' DH said that to me a few months ago about the scan when I was clearing an ottoman. I swear to god I've never hated him more than that day. Absolute knob 😡

monsteramunch · 06/12/2022 16:45

Caved. Not even a smidge of a line I'm afraid 😞

Fucking hell this is all so hard.

Hjudge56 · 06/12/2022 16:47

@Tropicana1 thank you!! So glad to hear your baby boy is healthy and well! Did you have a feeling it was a boy ?

@monsteramunch youre not out yet!! It is still early days!

Tropicana1 · 06/12/2022 16:47

@MrsCristianoX oh no stop! Men can be so bloody dense sometimes can't they!!
Sorry to hear you've had another chemical, you've really been put through it with this TTC journey.
Husband is super excited for a boy obviously!

@Hjudge56 we paid £5 for an online nub theory with our 12 week scan 🤣 which did actually say boy so I was thinking more boy but only because of that haha even though it's not at all fully accurate!

@Tropicana1 he's more than made up for it since. So happy for you 😍

@monsteramunch was it an IC ? I know they are hugely reliable but even so. Gutted for you 😢

MrsCristianoX · 06/12/2022 17:18

@Tropicana1 another month then I'm calling it a day. Eggs must be ancient by now and can't deal with another miscarriage xx

Thank you. Got to keep hoping it might just have been too early a test. Will wait until the weekend now to test, once AF is due.

It was a co-op test, an early detection one.

MamaSJ15 · 07/12/2022 07:32

@Tropicana1 thank you 😊 aww that's so lovely! How are you doing?

Eka94 · 17/12/2022 10:53

Hey just checking in to ask if this is normal? Had very high LH for 4 days now which indicates ovulation still hasn’t happened as it’s not dropping, I’ve never had a result this strong before and the surge has only ever lasted a day for me?!

Well I’ve found out what was going on. I was pregnant, I got a BFP at about 12pm. I started bleeding and having cramps at 1pm and have spent all afternoon in a&e as advised by maternity unit. They didn’t do much other than confirm a positive pregnancy test and say they’ll book me for a scan next week. So I’ve pretty much concluded I’ve lost the baby. That was a nice hour when I was happily pregnant ☹️

MrsCristianoX · 17/12/2022 18:58

@Eka94 god I'm so sorry. I saw this post this morning when I was half sleeping and thought defo test for pregnancy but looked at your CDs and thought it was weird. Then forgot to reply 😕

Eka94 · 20/12/2022 19:05

Aw that’s ok. Had it confirmed today that I have definitely miscarried ☹️

monsteramunch · 20/12/2022 19:09

Oh @Eka94 I could cry for you 😞

I'm so very sorry Flowers

Eka94 · 20/12/2022 19:12

@monsteramunch thank you 🙏🏽 here’s hoping next time will be more successful. How are you getting on?

Hjudge56 · 04/01/2023 19:32

How are you getting on @MrsCristianoX ?

MrsJGrealish · 04/01/2023 20:20

@Hjudge56 ah bless thanks for thinking of me x currently 1dpo didn't ovulate last month no pains, not any kind of peak and both me and DH were sick. Super peak this cycle so it's a waiting game now. A little bit fed up of it all.

Anyway how are you getting on at the other side? Hope you are keeping well?

Also name change..(missed my man too much) 😂

Hjudge56 · 04/01/2023 21:52

@MrsJGrealish haha loving the name change!

I have got all my fingers and toes crossed for you and really hope this is your month! How are you feeling about it? Did you manage to DTD even though you were sick ?

the other side has been quite tough tbh… I’ve been very nauseous and throwing up a lot. I’ve been bed bound on quite a few occasions but I have to remember how grateful I am and how worth it it all is! Work was getting a bit fed up as I was ‘slacking’ so I decided to tell my manager today as im around 11 weeks. Was a relief to get it off my chest as they knew something was wrong!

MrsJGrealish · 04/01/2023 22:00

@Hjudge56 damn right if I was vomiting the whole world would know. Ovulated CD16 and managed CD12 and ovulation day. Tried CD15 but DH got over excited 🙄

Hopefully the sickness ends soon. Bless you🙏 mine was worse with DD and I felt sick right up until she was born. With DSs it eased at 13 weeks xx it's so worth it in the end ❤️

Pika93 · 10/01/2023 09:32

Oh @Pika93 I'm so happy for you! Congratulations FlowersFlowersFlowers

Ncl31 · 10/01/2023 20:35

@Pika93 congratulations!!! How many weeks are you?

Pika93 · 10/01/2023 20:44

4w1d today, somehow managed to find time Xmas day to conceive them 😂

colourPink · 17/01/2023 09:09

After TTC for 18 months we finally have this!

My flo app says I'm 5 weeks and 2 days but that doesn't seem right? Too far along? Can anyone advise?

I'm a teacher and at work - my head isn't in it at all! Don't know how I'll get through the day.

We're keeping it to ourselves for now but I'm already struggling with not telling anyone so thought I'd post on here!
