@bunnykins123 yeah I'm fine just was super annoyed yesterday. When she asked me about a future blood profile I told her when it was and she's oh yea I see your appointment I'll add on a little bp check too. And also the most annoying thing you can say to someone who has had a stroke was 'don't be having another stroke now!!'😡 it's been 15 years love and literally is my worst fear.

Sorry for everyone experiencing bleeding 💕

bunnykins123 · 11/10/2022 16:11

@Luna57 if it's bright red, that's fresh. If it's on and off, then it could be your cervix and some kind of irritation or reaction to increasing hormones. I wouldn't worry too much at this point, unless it gets heavier then maybe call the epu 💕

@EsmeSusanOgg looks positive to me, congratulations!

MrsCristianoX · 11/10/2022 16:12

@EsmeSusanOgg I can defo see a line 🤞❤️

lovenaps · 11/10/2022 16:21

@EsmeSusanOgg it is positive! I know you will probably be feeling a bit on edge given previous history, I wish you all the best x ❤
@RaliaMusca so happy for you 💐It is a shame it had to be stressful but that feeling when you no longer expect something to happen, something you really wanted, and then you find out things are okay - that is one of the best feelings ❤

@HalWin2221 @ChloeN @MrsCristianoX @mummatara @bunnykins123 @Mariabombia @FfayeN thank you lovely ladies, this group is truly amazing! 😢❤
@MrsCristianoX I should be testing towards end of next week. Really really afraid of a negative but at the end of the day... What can I do!

@Luna57 How are you feeling? 🌸

lovenaps · 11/10/2022 16:23

@EsmeSusanOgg what I was meant to add - if you feel anxious at any point, please come here anytime you need to talk to someone/vent!

TheBirdintheCave · 11/10/2022 17:36

@EsmeSusanOgg Obviously a positive.

mummatara · 11/10/2022 18:08

@Luna57 I just monitor tests and call them if still positive at 3 weeks hopefully it won't be 🤞🏼 you def need to add less to your plate atm would you be ok not adding the extra job?

@bunnykins123 gosh I've been asking myself that very question all week 😂 I really really don't know what to do. I started all these blooming expensive supplements which says it takes 2-3 months for them to do their job in the reproductive area but I obviously don't want to wait and want to try straight away because I'm impatient and the thought of wasting cycles just winds me up 😂 and we might not even fall on any of those cycles 🤷🏼‍♀️ I started the vits on 21st sept so 3ish weeks ago. But if we do fall and something goes wrong again I'll be sitting here thinking well what if I waited 🙄 I think what I will do is probably not track anything other than my temp because I've always tracked that anyway and if anything happens then I'll just pray it's all ok 🙏🏼 I can't Opk anyway atm as obv I'm still testing positive

FfayeN · 11/10/2022 18:11

@mummatara such good news that it's easing up 💕 hoping your body makes a nice snap back to its regular routine.

@RaliaMusca congratulations, such lovely news that it has stuck on in there and it gives us all a little reassurance too 🥰

@lovenaps there's a few of us due to test towards the end of the week so just know that you are not alone hun xx

@Luna57 sounds like you need to take it easy whilst your body adjusts, easier said than done but look after yourself 😘

@bunnykins123 did you do anything different this cycle? New vits and supps? The time before ie, how early it comes doesn't matter too much, it's the luteal phase that if it's too short can have an impact on viability so I'm sure it's fine...so long as you managed to DTD in quick time too 😂

@EsmeSusanOgg yes that's a positive! X

Has anyone else had shooting pains in pelvic area in early pregnancy? Last time it was period pains but this one it's like stabbing me 🔪

@RaliaMusca I have totally missed your posts! So happy for you & your little bean!I'm 5ish weeks too , I'm glad they've been so good with scanning you.

@EsmeSusanOgg looks positive to me 😍how many dpo are you? So sorry for your loss.

@lovenaps ♥️

@Luna57 oh lovely, sorry to hear it's started again. It's frustrating that no one has been able to pinpoint why you're bleeding. Are you having cramping? Don't put pressure on yourself to work or do chores etc when you're going through this, the most important thing is your health. Xx

@MrsCristianoX that nurse sounds so thoughtless !! When I was having the mc me and dh went to a&e at the start of it and I had my bloods done and urine sample done by these two medical professionals who were in a room together listening to the radio and laughing and joking , one of them said to me 'there's blood in your urine' no shit Sherlock I'm literally here because im bleeding, look at my notes fgs. Then the other one goes ' you got a positive pregnancy test do you want to keep it?' I mean how tactless is that!

RaliaMusca · 11/10/2022 18:45

@Mariabombia thank you! Actually, I had stabbing pains as well as dull aches a lot, especially on my left. That's why I ended up going to a&e because I worried it might be ectopic because I also had bleeding. I did have the same pains with my previous pregnancy. I think it's pretty normal but obviously of it concerns you it's best to have it checked out

MrsCristianoX · 11/10/2022 18:56

@Mariabombia u know I read that and was hoping she meant the test but rereading it seems she meant the baby? What the actual f**k? Maybe a better question would be 'how do you feel about this?' No one goes to a@e on a whim and to be laughing and joking when you are in obvious distress. Speechless .

@mummatara the hospitality job is with my sister, I work ever winter with her she’s my boss and I love it cos we never get to see each other so my other job might have to take a back seat just til I see what’s happening.

@Mariabombia yes I’ve had it with ds and this pregnancy. It’s completely normal. Could be a wee nerve getting touched with everything stretching. I’ve only had that one fresh bleed today which was only on wiping. That’s the least I’ve had since Saturday. Can blame doing the dishes for that bleed 😂 I’ve cramps to an extent but I think it’s a mixture of stretching and progesterone because it’s coming and going too.

think all of this Is hitting dh more than I thought he’s asked his boss to work from home for a week to clear his head. He really breaks my heart cos he’s such a family man. We’ve been together 10 years and he’s been asking me for a baby since we were about 22 but I was never ready and always wanted to be married. He gave up his career in England 4 years ago to come back home to get married and start a family

ChickenT2b · 11/10/2022 20:14

Quick question ladies, how do you count dpo? Do you count from the day after and then not include the current day? Ie if I ovulated on 6th October, today I would be 4dpo or 5dpo 🧐

Can’t work out if I’ve even ovulated this month 😩 temp rise is minimal.

MrsCristianoX · 11/10/2022 20:27

@ChickenT2b day after peak is ovulation day then the following day is 1dpo that's my method..I've just started temping this month so can't help with temps Xx my thermometer had a error reading this morning too😕

FfayeN · 11/10/2022 20:45

@ChickenT2b you would be 5dpo today 😊. Xx

OP posts:
FfayeN · 11/10/2022 20:45

@ChickenT2b if you had your LH surge on the 6th, you'd have likely ovulated on the 7th and would then be 4DPO today. Hope that makes sense 😘

HalWin2221 · 11/10/2022 22:40

@ChickenT2b we are cycle buddies! 😊

MrsCristianoX · 11/10/2022 22:52

Well I'm pretty fed up. And I knew this would happen as fertile week approaches. TMI ladies but I'll 💯 frustrated. DH isn't. He just pulls away now and I'm laying there covered in gunk. And I'm now going to scream into a pillow. Rant over. Work tomorrow, never thought I'd be so glad to see the place but I'm on edge...😭

TheBirdintheCave · 12/10/2022 08:28

I took my temperature this morning and it's only .1 of a degree above the cover line so I guess that's me out :( I wish I hadn't done it now.

ChickenT2b · 12/10/2022 08:37

@MrsCristianoX @FfayeN thank you xx
@MrsCristianoX could you not try it again straight away?

@HalWin2221 ooh yay 😃 what cycle are you on post miscarriage? X

Luna57 · 12/10/2022 09:10

@MrsCristianoX have you been given a timeline of your treatment and when you can start ttc again? Gunk 😂

hope everyone is ok today.

Oh no 😔. Do you mean he pulled out? Tell him to be courteous and catch it or wrap up! xx

Sorry to hear this lovely, doesn't mean you are definitely out though. Fingers crossed for your test tomorrow xx

bunnykins123 · 12/10/2022 09:56

@MrsCristianoX Oh hun, of course you're feeling this way. Its the disappointment of not at least being able to try coupled with DH just not getting it and gunking all over you. Nobody needs that at the best of times, let alone when you're going through all this.

@TheBirdintheCave what DPO are you lovely? I don't know if temps are highly accurate. Will you test?

I have my 1st appointment today with the fertility clinic to discuss our options and see basically how screwed we are with my high NK cells. Wish me luck 🤞
