@MrsCristianoX No, if successful then would be my 6th baby. I’ve been pregnant 11 times. I have 5 living children. I really should just put this all to bed but since my last bfp and then the MMC, I wonder what if… it’s mad. It’s messing with my head. I’ve been through so much fertility wise. I could write a book 😞

@Everythingzrosie I know exactly what you mean but for me now I have to put a pin in ttc. I've had phone calls from 2 doctors today and they both have recommended treatment I can't use if ttc . I wish everyone here all the luck in the world ❤️ 😘

@MrsCristianoX I'm really sorry to hear you have to take a break ttc. Sending you lots of hugs and good luck for the treatment and general future 💗

@HalWin2221 Thank you! I'm not even sure they'd scan me as I've only spoken to my GP and she said she can't refer me until next week because I'm only 5 weeks along.
I've now booked a private scan for next week Friday, just to have something in the diary that will hopefully give me reassurance.
I'm definitely symptom spotting but the bleed last week was like a full blown heavy period so I'm not sure what's going on. Maybe ectopic, maybe lost a twin, maybe totally unexplained.

Btw ladies, I went to my first acupuncture session today with a woman who specialises in fertility, pregnancy and postnatal support. It was fantastic, I highly recommend if your finances allow it!

@MrsCristianoX sorry to hear that lovely, hope you’re okay❤️

@RaliaMusca Ive heard lots of about acupuncture for ttc and pregnancy! I might look in to it ☺️

@bunnykins123 Yeah it's really annoying but hopefully it's just one day and I've made a note in the app so that I remember when I look back over future cycles. I've found temping really interesting so far. I'm hoping the surprise of 'what will my temperature be this morning' will be a good enough substitute for needing to take early pregnancy tests when the time comes 😅

@MrsCristianoX Oh gosh I'm so sorry about the new medication preventing TTC :( We'll miss you!

...

This might sound quite strange but has anyone else who has been TTC for more than six months found that they're getting frustrated with not being able to plan things? I'm a travel addict so always immediately look for the next adventure as soon as I get home. I'd love to book Greek island hopping for next June but.. I have no idea when or if I'll ever get pregnant and if that will scupper my plans. TTC means that I can't book until February (as if I got pregnant any earlier I wouldn't be able to fly) and all of the good flights and hotels might be gone by then :( I'm starting to hope that it doesn't happen just so that I get to go on holiday next year which is bizarre, as I want a second baby very much.

@MrsCristianoX that’s so annoying, how long will you have to stop for? I might be in the same boat next week if I have to take this drug 😕 part of me is gutted to not be able to TTC for 3 months, but another part is looking forward to a boozy Christmas 😂

@MrsCristianoX oh lovely so sorry you're having to take a break, but hopefully what it will mean is you come back with gusto and maybe even a new name 😊. We will miss you, even better stay with us and keep us going with your witty words 😘

@TheBirdintheCave I 100% am with you on that, we're debating now what holidays to do next year and it's so annoying not being able to plan. I also don't want to plan nothing incase we end up not ever having a baby and we'd have missed out on some amazing travel. It's such a tough one to live life in limbo. We're considering booking the time and anything we can that's refundable...just incase (you could easily do this island hopping with booking.com or air bnb with free cancellation) 🥰

@TheBirdintheCave weve just booked a last min holiday for next weekend! I was scared to travel when pregnant but I’d only be in the tww so may as well go for it! Haven’t been this year I’m suffering 🤣

@FfayeN Funnily enough I said that to my sister in law yesterday. We found a good hotel for Crete (our starter location) and it does have free cancellation until the start of June so I might just book it as soon as I can check the easyJet flight list. Their summer schedule comes out tomorrow! :D

@TheBirdintheCave yeah do it you have nothing to loose and it means you have something to look forward to aswell 🥰 xx

@FfayeN well I can work on the vitamins. They take a while to take effect so hopefully 🙏 this might be a good thing. I just need to wait. I'm just annoyed I got those bloods taken weeks ago, my friend is a gp receptionist and I asked her to screenshot the results on a whim last night. I can't stress enough if you feel something is wrong pursue it. Xx

Ooo hope you're okay @MrsCristianoX sending you a big hug 💕

I know exactly that feeling @TheBirdintheCave!!! Ttc is one longggg wait isn't it -you wait to ovulate, you wait to see if you get a positive for 2 weeks, you wait again when you get your period. Then if you do conceive you wait and wait to see if the pregnancy will stick/ if your baby is healthy. It's so tough! Can you just book some last min getaways?

Report
FfayeN · 05/10/2022 21:28

@MrsCristianoX absolutely advocate that. I have all my results on my NHS app and double check everyone rather than trust them GPs. I know they do their best but no one will be a bigger advocate for your own health more than you! Hoping it's nothing too serious and you'll be ready to go again soon. I know how frustrating it is as I had to take a break too for medication...but when you get back in the saddle you'll be glad you've taken the time to get where you need to be 😊 xx

Goodness ladies these threads move fast! I took a step back for a bit there as I was driving myself crazy with the ttc and analysing everything! Had a big heart to heart with the hubby and we've decided to take the pressure off until the new year... I've just been offered a new job as well so it does well to wait! Of course the, I'm 38 am I running out of time anxiety kicks in but a couple of months to reset and enjoy Christmas will probably do me the world of good!

I haven't had the chance to catch up yet as there's over 900 posts lol but just wanted to pop in and say hello x

@FfayeN us poor sods in NI don't have the app 😢 purely reliant on a gp/receptionist ringing. I WANT THE APP @Chellooo @Luna57!! We will campaign outside city hall (if it's not raining) 😂

@bunnykins123 @Mariabombia @lovenaps @Luna57 aww 🥰 thanks girls! Still doesn't seem real after 2 back to back MMC. I still darent think about things too much, kind of a form of self preservation I think. Nope going to hold off on the gender @bunnykins123. Defo get 'on it' as often as u can. From what my consultant friend has told me. Although OPKs have there uses they're not 💯 and sooo many people leave dtd too late on. I've always left it a couple of days after AF finished, get rid of any 'old swimmers' and then try and do it regularly till after O ( going by signs of CM). And the 'cup' definitely comes out at times! 😆 x
