@bunnykins123 no I think they are accurate 😂 when I got the solid smiley and checked with a strip that was also peak. The only annoying thing was the 8 days of flashing smileys my estrogen must rise early to make it flash we were knackered by solid smiley day 🙄 I have heard that an hour can make a difference but I also read it shouldn't matter as long as you've had a solid sleep 🤷🏼‍♀️ tbh mine don't vary that much and my sleep is awful I just make sure I've taken it with a good solid chunk of sleep.Has it dropped back down to pre O temp or just dropped a little?

bunnykins123 · 11/10/2022 07:45

@mummatara gotcha! I always thought they were reasonably accurate but you never really know with these things! Well my cycle was way early this month so I only got 1 temp before O and that was super high 🤷‍♀️ so really I think there is no way to know at this point. I've also been having a bit of veeeery light pink spotting which I think was preseed. Not using that again...!!

TheBirdintheCave · 11/10/2022 08:24

@FfayeN Yes we are exactly the same :) I did start temping this month but I've stopped now as I don't want to see when it starts to go down again 😅

FfayeN · 11/10/2022 08:31

@TheBirdintheCave yeah I know what you mean, it's almost the same anticipation as a negative test 😩. Especially as I've started to feel bloated, right ready for AF to show her ugly face! I'm trying my best to hold off until Saturday to test...I have little faith that'll actually happen 😂

@bunnykins123 do you have a pic of your chart? Sorry if I've forgotten do you normally ovulate late?

@lovenaps big hugs, the waves of emotion this journey brings are tough to navigate. We are all here for you, rant away...this is a safe space 💕

I get quite a bit of ewcm each cycle, but now (stupidly probably🤦🏻‍♀️) I’m worrying that it’s all coming out and none is staying up there ready for the sperm🤣 is the cm just around the cervix or is it in other parts to help the sperm move along?

TheBirdintheCave · 11/10/2022 11:48

@ChloeN This is something I've worried about to. I'd see it after going to the loo and be like 'No! Stay up there where I need you!' 😂

In other news, I've been reading more about the Fetilily and will definitely be ordering one if Thursday's test is a bust. Hopefully it'll be just the thing to help my husband's lazy swimmers 😅

FfayeN · 11/10/2022 11:52

The fertilily definitely helps keep the goods up there 😂 x

@ChloeN before ds I worried than I only ever seen EWCM when I was doing a no2 (tmi 😂) now after emergency forceps and a HUGE episiotomy everything falls out of me even. Sometimes I sneeze and think I’ve peed myself but nope was just cm.

@MrsCristianoX thank you for the information. I’m sure consultants wouldn’t prescribe it as I’m sure it’s expensive if they didn’t believe it helped maintain a pregnancy with low progesterone.

@Mariabombia glad to hear the spotting has stopped!

@RaliaMusca have you your scan today? Good luck!

don’t want to talk too soon but I haven’t had any real bleeding since yesterday evening. Although the cyclogest is definitely having fun with my stomach the wind and wind pains are fantastic 😂 to add to my anxieties my friend in work messaged to say it’s going round our base someone else is pregnant. I finally came out and told her it was me but told her what’s been happening so that’s why I want everything to be kept confidential. She said she thought it was me because all of a sudden i had a ‘sore ear’ and never in work 😂 you can’t fart in that office and everyone knows!!!!

MrsCristianoX · 11/10/2022 12:32

@Luna57 glad the info helped and no they don't prescribe it randomly so there is a definite chance.

Yesterday I had just come of the phone to a practice nurse who was surprisingly (or maybe unsurprisingly🙄) in the dark about my situation even though future appointments have been made, and prescriptions issued. Read my notes before you ring me woman

Anyway glad the bleeding has calmed xx

Luna57 · 11/10/2022 13:13

@MrsCristianoX i feel like that’s happening more and more in health care atm. She must of been given a checklist to phone you and didn’t think to actually see why she was phoning you.

my house is sitting a tip but I’m too scared to get stuck in incase it brings it on again. Ds is back to childcare today after his injections yesterday I’m 50% missing him but 50% loving lying on the sofa watching bloodlands with the dogs.

MrsCristianoX · 11/10/2022 13:37

@Luna57 imo don't worry about the house. Doctors called it bed rest back in the day so take it easy these early stages xx

bunnykins123 · 11/10/2022 13:44

@Luna57 cyclogest is the worst for windy-pops!! You did make me lol about farting in the office though, it's so hard when you just seem to be trumpeting every 5 minutes 🤷‍♀️

@MrsCristianoX me too. When I had my apt with the consultant regarding miscarriages, she was like 'let me see your results...hmm...oooo...oh yes, all is normal'. Check before you call me!!

@FfayeN I usually O around cd14 but this month was either cd11 or cd12. So I guess that in itself is a bad sign 😢 I'll try and send my chart!

MrsCristianoX · 11/10/2022 13:57

@bunnykins123 honestly I despair. The nurse took my bp along with the bloods and it's was high. Checked it again still high. She made me sit in a room for 10 mins and it was ok. There's no record of this on my notes
So I'm a bit pissed off 😤

mummatara · 11/10/2022 14:21

I think the bleeding is finished 🙌🏼 had nothing on a pad since yesterday and now I'm just getting a pink tinge when I wipe overall 7 days of bleeding now just to pray that's there's nothing retained. Temp has dropped slightly the last couple of days it still has a little to go for pre O temp cover line is 36.03 temp was at about 36.5 and last few days we've been about the 36.3 mark so hopefully that will carry on its downward trend

RaliaMusca · 11/10/2022 14:22

Just had my scan and looks like my little blob has clung on through the bleeding. Measures as it should for 5 and a bit weeks. No fetal pole yet but the sonographer said she wouldn't expect to see one at this point.
I was so sure I was out when I had that second bleed.
I know it's still early days though so won't celebrate quite yet.

mummatara · 11/10/2022 14:26

@RaliaMusca ahhhh lovely that's brilliant news. Obviously still early days like you say but I'm so pleased your little bean has clung on ❤️ will they scan you again?

ChloeN · 11/10/2022 15:11

@TheBirdintheCave the ferti lily is so easy to use now I’ve got the hang of it so defo give it a go!!

@Luna57 yes thats when I see it!! Hopefully there’s more up there 🤣

@RaliaMusca that’s such good news❤️

@mummatara wooo hopefully that’s the end for you! ☺️

Luna57 · 11/10/2022 15:15

@RaliaMusca what a relief! Did you ask where the bleeding has come from? Did they recommend any progesterone?

@mummatara yay for the bleeding finished! Have you another scan to make sure everything is gone or do you just monitor pregnancy tests weekly?

i def think my bleeding is my cervix I haven’t had any all day and have been on the sofa. Got up and done some house work and now wiping bright red again. I know I should probably rest but I’m meant to start my winter jobs next week. I finish cabin crew for 5 weeks December and come back mid January so I always pick up a hospitality job but decided to pick up my old pandemic job too but not sure I want to work 2 jobs with this going on 😭

bunnykins123 · 11/10/2022 15:24

@Luna57 when you say it's bright red, is it like a smear or actual bleeding? It probably is your cervix especially if it's a bit stop start 🤞

@RaliaMusca congratulations!!

@mummatara that's good news! Hopefully that's the end of it now. Do you think you'll try straight away or wait a bit?

@MrsCristianoX it's actually negligent on their part because if something happened to you and they didn't make a note of it, something serious could come from that. I hope you're ok though!

TheBirdintheCave · 11/10/2022 15:31

@RaliaMusca That's great news! Fingers crossed your little bean has anchored itself really tightly :)

Luna57 · 11/10/2022 15:41

@bunnykins123 its bright red when I wipe it’s not dripping. It’s just not the colour and consistency of a period though. Then it’ll be cm mixed with red then cm mixed with brown then it starts all over again. It’s not enough for me to wear a pad just a panty liner I would call it light bleeding it’s just a bit more than spotting. If that makes sense?

HalWin2221 · 11/10/2022 15:58

@RaliaMusca very happy for you & your little blob 🥲 glad everything as it should be!

RaliaMusca · 11/10/2022 15:58

Thanks everyone! I've got another scan in two weeks' time. They couldn't see an obvious cause for the bleeding.
I asked about progesterone and the nurse said she's aware of the NICE guidelines but my trust doesn't offer it due to funding issues.

EsmeSusanOgg · 11/10/2022 16:08

Had a miscarriage at 12 weeks in July. Been TTC through the summer. But everything is a bit off. Can I borrow line eyes for this afternoon's test?
