Hi ladies. I have started to feel a little overwhelmed with our usual thread and we are at different stages of our journeys now. Please feel free to leave this one if you don't feel the same but I feel so invested in your journeys and don't want to miss any news. Hoping this is ok, I don't think you can do DM as a group?
Hope you are all doing well and if there's anyone I've missed from the usual bunch feel free to add 😘😘😘

@FfayeN i am the most patient person ever except when it comes to anything TTC apparently 🤣 yes I believe it can I watched a video on it once lh and hcg share a couple of markers which can set the opk off. It is weird how the opk has been a proper line for over a week now

mummatara · 20/11/2022 21:09

@Indianna2006 😂 you'll be regular at least

lovenaps · 21/11/2022 07:00

Thank you, it's so nice to have this forum as a support network. I will let you all know as soon as possible how it goes. I feel a bit crazy being optimistic. Not sure what I'm going to do if it's bad news 😟. Thanks for your well wishes xxx

@mummatara I think maybe it's a wee bit darker?

I did another FRER this morning at 14dpo and am so pleased that it looks just like my son's did at 14dpo (a shade lighter than the control) and nothing like the piffling ghost of a line I had at this stage with my MMC. It was a very strange feeling to think that it could be the last FRER I ever take 😂

I'll just be adding to my row of E@H's now until I run out (or get a dye stealer) and have a digital to do at 5 weeks. Maybe 6 if I can hold out (or make it) that long.

bunnykins123 · 21/11/2022 08:47

@FfayeN best of luck today!! I'm certain all will be great 🤞

@mummatara it seems this chat has moved on a lot since I checked yesterday 😂 Ooo I just don't know, just when you want your body to just behave it goes and throws a curve ball like this. The test today does look a wee bit lighter but it might be because it's not dried? How would you feel about a new pregnancy?!

Looks like AF is on its way, pink spotting today and all the signs on AF 🙄 DH has his sperm test today so thank god we will get some answers soon. I'm ready to Jack in the towel now....

bunnykins123 · 21/11/2022 08:49

@TheBirdintheCave that's great news - that must be such a relief!!!

TheBirdintheCave · 21/11/2022 08:55

@bunnykins123 Yeah I don't think I realised how much I was hoping for it to be nice and dark. The MMC has definitely sucked a lot of the joy out of it BUT weirdly it's also made me quite calm about everything. Perhaps because I've got a bad experience to compare things to now.

mummatara · 21/11/2022 10:22

@TheBirdintheCave @bunnykins123 I took another pic as it's dried a bit and it looks the same as yesterday I think.

@TheBirdintheCave I'm so pleased you got a nice dark line ❤️ I know it doesn't take away the anxiety but it must make you feel a little relived.

@bunnykins123 ahhh bloody AF ☹️ hopefully you get some answers from that test and then you're going to start ivf? Lol it really did take a turn my body never likes to behave apparently 😭 I would be very happy if it was a new pregnancy but also a little apprehensive that did I give my body time. Then when I think that I think surely my body wouldn't do it if it wasn't ready for it 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️ I'm still feeling like it isn't a new one though

mummatara · 21/11/2022 10:24

Whoops forgot to attach 🤦🏼‍♀️

Bad news here ladies. Unfortunately the baby stopped growing at 8w5d. Not sure where we go from here, but hoping they can offer surgical management this week.

here if you need us all 😘

FfayeN · 21/11/2022 11:54

Thank you 🥺. It's knowing what to do after, I really think the only thing it could be is the auto-immune disease. It's the same time each pregnancy, it can't be a coincidence. So now looking at NK Cell testing and treatment for that, but the costs are eye watering. xxx

OP posts:
Indianna2006 · 21/11/2022 12:21

@FfayeN 😞😞 it must be so hard to know and be so overwhelming.

just remind me again is this 3rd one loss now? Or more? And all around same time you lose it?

what testing have you had done again?

deff look at the NK cell testing if you think it could be linked. How exp is it?

otherwise presume sperm has been tested? What about DNA fragmentation test on the sperm? As if you’ve not had that. Could be another factor to check as if that’s very high it can be bad sperm causing bad cell division of the egg and genetic issues.
obb can also be egg quality or combined. But that’s much harder to tell until you go IVF route.

sorry just trying to think of things to help. Which isn’t wasting your money that will get you over the finish line which you so deserve. 💐💐

bunnykins123 · 21/11/2022 12:22

@FfayeN oh my lovely. I'm so so sorry to see your update. My heart has just sunk. We are all here for you 💕 biggest cuddle from me 💕

bunnykins123 · 21/11/2022 12:26

@FfayeN take this time to grieve but when you're ready, feel free to reach out to me. I have high NK cells and have been round the ringer trying to find answers. I have sadly also had 3 losses all at the same point 😢
