@Luna57 I'd go by the box. I don't see what the difference would be either. It's still being absorbed either way.

@HalWin2221 its horrible isn’t it! Feeling positive makes me anxious!! I don’t want to go down again at the sight of another BFN 😩.
I was hoping to hold out until Monday too! Do you consider this early? 🤣 11dpo would be an achievement for me 🙈
Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 xx

@mummatara i do feel really dismissed they just tell you to go to a&e if I have pain or unmanageable bleeding. The sister at the scan made a point to say a&e won’t scan you though. Right now I’m not worried about a scan I’m worried about why I’m actively bleeding fresh bright red blood something is wrong there surely? Should I stop cyclogest and see how I get on? I feel like if I’m meant to miscarry I’m meant to. Don’t think cyclogest will help, I’ve never had hormone problems before.

I need to catch up!! I keep forgetting to come on here and post to you all!

dh and I dtd right on ovulation day (they day after I posted here about him pulling out) so on 2ww

will read back and catch up this afternoon x

@Luna57 I have the exact same ones and I was told either. I'm surprised the midwife has never heard that before. I've never done vaginally so not sure what that's like but everything I read advised to do rectally. Regarding the bleeding, I would follow up and ask if they can see you sooner. 6 days bleeding could be entirely normal but probably needs a bit more attention than they're giving. Is ur heavy or still just streaks?

@ChickenT2b are you 11dpo now hun? That's not too early if you want to test it's a personal choice.

All the chat about cyclogest is useful as I have been given that too from a positive test xx

No dice. Positive tests on Wednesday. But cramps and period like bleeding this morning. 😪

Not my month (again). Think there's a bit of bleak irony behind discovering your pregnant, then not pregnant in baby loss awareness week.

@ChickenT2b i know I feel exactly the same, the sight of a BPN and then waiting for AF 🙁 we’ve got to stay positive though haven’t we!
I tested at 9dpo last time when I got my BFP so, when you want it as much as we do I don’t think there is such thing as too early! 😂

@Luna57 your bleeding sounds a bit like what I had earlier this month. I also had 6 days of bright red blood. I went to a&e in the end because I had pain in my left abdomen, although it was quite mild but it scared me a little. They referred me to the EPU and I had a scan and blood test. Another blood test was done 48hrs later and another scan 5 days after that. They just really wanted to rule out ectopic.
I'd say if you're really concerned about something being seriously wrong (like I was because I really did fear an ectopic), go to a&e and ask to be referred for a scan at the epu. Otherwise I guess you can play the waiting game and be reassured that bleeding doesn't have to mean anything bad. It didn't for me (so far at least). Xx

@bunnykins123 my bleeding is heavier today, it’s just really draining me now.

@RaliaMusca ive already had a scan so that’s ruled out ectopic. They just keep saying they don’t scan between the scans they like to wait 2 weeks to see what happens. Did your bleeding stop?

@FfayeN i am 8dpo so fighting the urge to test already and hoping I will last until 11dpo on Monday 🙈 I only have two cheapies left in the house and no FR so this should help!!

@HalWin2221 i do tend to keep an eye on my temp too though, if it’s high I remain positive. High for me though is about 36.6 so not super high.

@Luna57 ah apologies, I didn't know you had had a scan already. At least that's a positive, you know there's nothing immediately sinister going in at least.
My bleeding stopped after 6 days but a week later I had another big, clotty bleed which lasted half a day. A scan five days later showed all was still well. No more bleeding since 🤞
When is your next scan again? Mine isn't until the 25th. I hate waiting

@ChickenT2b what is your temp currently? 🤞🏽

@HalWin2221 mine was 36.59 this morning which I was happy with for 8dpo. What about you? X

@ChickenT2b my post O temp and pregnancy temp was around that mark it varied from 36.57-36.65

@ChickenT2b @HalWin2221
I work in F as that's what my thermometer came up in, I am averaging the equivalent of 36.6 now, pre ovulation I was more like 36.2. Here's my chart with a few wayward temps due to cheese and wine 🤣 (maybe that's the secret!!)

@RaliaMusca my next scan isn’t til 24th so 10 days away. I’d debated a private scan sooner but I’d rather know if the bleeding isn’t a miscarriage then what is it and don’t think say window to the womb could tell me that. I’m still gonna try the cyclogest rectally in the mean time. I’ve been trying to think what I’ve did different with ds and the only think is I took high strength omega 3s which I think can help eggs with ovulation? So maybe I should try that if this pregnancy ends and see if it helps make the eggs healthier.

@FfayeN @ChickenT2b you girls are temp queens! I don’t take my temp, I think it would be obsessed with it! I’m already obsessed with the app Flo and that doesn’t even tell you anything 🙈

Hey hope everyone is ok?! Huge congratulations @FfayeN @theblueflowers so so happy for you both! How are u feeling? Any symptoms? Xx

The nausea has really kicked in the last few days ladies 😷

So depressed. Another friend with a son a month older than mine just announced her pregnancy. I've spent all day Googling urology specialists for my husband 😭 It's never going to happen for us.

@HalWin2221 i temp because it’s the only way to truly confirm ovulation. A really good indication of whether AF is coming too. I do find the flo app to be fairly accurate with predicting. I also have the natural cycles app and find that to be consistently incorrect 🤦🏼‍♀️

@TheBirdintheCave we honestly all have these days, you’re not alone feeling like that 😞. What cycle are you on?
Does he have any form of private health care through work at all? My hubby to be got a referral as he’s 40 in Jan, though he hasn’t actually gone ahead with it yet.

@TheBirdintheCave Im so sorry if our news has been triggering, it's a really hard thing to deal with each month. Am I right in thinking you had tests 3 years ago? Sorry if that was someone else 🫣. It may be worth having them done to know where you both stand, then you can work forward with a plan if need be, and if not you know it's just a matter of time? Was your son conceived naturally? If so then perhaps the fertilily or some supplements may be the boost you need
Xx

Not overly. I have bloating and constipation but this isn't abnormal for me before AF is due! As I described below a little bit of a strange tingly/'full' sensation down there but again I get that each month xx
