@TTCxox

No worries re the mistake :) Congratulations and the best of luck to you! I really hope this one sticks as it sounds like you've been through the ringer.

And thanks for considering that it might have accidentally triggered people, not many posters are aware of that 🥰

@TTCxox prednisone is steroids, when I was pregnant with my first I was on it and another medication as I have ulcerative colitis and possibly why my pregnancy was successful (as both used in recurrent miscarriage) so iv been prescribed it for when I get pregnant again. Altho TMI(I have a "barbie butt") as I have a ileostomy bag so vaginally will be the only way I can use the pressures I really hope I can tolerate it as iv seen so many people say they can't 🙈

It's now been a year since our loss, I still grieve at the most random times. The joy we got from that pregnancy that ended too soon was life changing and I long for it. We have been trying everything to conceive and it hasn't happened yet.

*wringer damn autocorrect 😂

Hey, how are you getting on with your meds? Had a faint positive this morning so will keep an eye as my consultant what's me to start the pessaries, aspirin etc as soon as I get a positive! X

@TheBirdintheCave thanks for your kind words ❤️ how have you been getting on with TTC? Have you come across the podcast “the worst girl gang ever”. I listened to it nearly everyday on my daily walks lol, it really helped me feel like other ppl understood what we’re going through . I also ordered miscarriage books/ttc books to help me as I blocked off this site off my phone this past month as it really made me obsessive lol.

sorry to hear that @Cheetocat 😞 I know how you feel 100%.do you manage to catch your positive ovulation days?

@Daniki wow congrats! I hope the line gets stronger!! How many DPO are you? So I’m on day 3 of pessaries. They are (so far), totally fine. Mess free, no constipation (from what I read). I don’t actually know what the side effects are but I have none!

@TTCxox I've nearly completed my first round of IVF :) Egg collection is tomorrow. It's a freeze all though as I'm an OHSS risk so I won't be getting a transfer until late June/July 🙄

We're lucky that we have a toddler already but had a lot of fertility issues trying to have him. Was hoping number two might be easier but two missed miscarriages later and no such luck 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi all,
Really pleased to see some BFP’s!
I’m in my second cycle after a miscarriage in February, last month I had a peak at CD19 so decided to wait until CD15 this cycle to test LH as I didn’t want to get consumed by testing everyday, my test today was as high as my peak last month! This has thrown me off and can’t help feeling deflated and that I should have been more organised this month.
Anyway, can only hope that we done enough and I suppose my TWW will start early which is a positive.
Will test again tomorrow and see what my LH is saying!
Good luck to all this month!

Good luck @Dinosaur39 ! If you managed to dtd around this time then you've done enough!

Currently feeling down as booking appointment should have been this Wednesday. I think I should ovulate soon as tests are getting higher and darker and Im on cd16, which is when I ovulated last cycle. The one before that was cd18.

Just want it to go right this time. I know the next time will be tainted by anxiety and worry if I'm lucky enough to have a next pregnancy which makes me sad as the joy of it has been sucked away.
Most of the people around me are pregnant so easily and having a fine time which isn't easy either. I should have only been a few weeks behind them. Safe to say I'm in a bit of a slump!

Should have had our 12 week scan yesterday but miscarried in April. Received a picture of a scan from a friend yesterday. It's these little things are bitter sweet. Obviously delighted for my friend but the day that it was was crushing.

Another friend is due next month on my due date from a previous miscarriage.

Not only do we need to contend with struggling to have a child, but need to try to be happy for all these others.

@BudgetBuster
I know it’s difficult and it’s completely normal to feel the way you do after a loss.
Everyone says it and I don’t know if it makes you feel any better but your time will come and it will all be worth it when you have your own baby to send pictures of and celebrate ☺️ just try and stay positive and keep the healthy vibes flowing.

My LH tests today have gone down so I assume I ovulated early this month.

TWW commences 🎉

@MrsJGrealish how are you doing? Had my appt with consultant today. She basically said as I can get pregnant she thinks just keep trying 🙄. I did mention they said about checking tubes and womb, she felt it wasn’t necessary, but I pushed as been 9 months now since we managed to get pregnant, so got to sort one after next period. She did do a more thorough blood clotting panel and is checking my vit d levels. Genetic blood tests will be up to another 2 months before results are in, so hopefully by them with have had everything checked and see if anything is flagged up.

@Bubblesandballoons Hi missus, em that seems weird? But good you're getting more testing. Will you use the suppositories then? I've been wrestling with this and no one can give me a straight answer but i finally got a 21 day blood test got the results yesterday. The progesterone level came back high so unless it drops suddenly or more likely eggs are dudes 🙈? Where u at in your cycle? Xx

@Bubblesandballoons I used the Cyclogest last cycle and it made no diff just took an extra 5 days after stopping for period to come 🙄. Using them this cycle, but 10dpo and negative, so guessing this isn’t my issue or not ant this stage anyway. I prob have dud eggs too 🙈. Just frustrating going from easily conceiving but miscarrying to now nothing for ages 😩.
that’s positive it was high. Are you in the tww then?

@Bubblesandballoons what really? God that would put me right off. Yes I'm 9dpo but I've been in a bit of a mood this month and only DTD once on CD12 when my OPK was super low. It climbed the next day though but really there's zero chance. I've just felt a bit ugh with it all 😏

@MrsJGrealish yeah it has put me off a bit, decided one more cycle then if nothing I’ll keep rest and start them if I get a positive. Was the longest wait ever for af, I was getting very annoyed.
Ahh ☹️. It only take once tho, so fingers crossed for you, although I know those two lines don’t mean much unless it sticks around which doesn’t help. Will you test or not bother?

@Bubblesandballoons god no. Not until I'm at least 5 days late xx

@MrsJGrealish hoping that you are ❤️

I got a bfp two days ago, I'm still in shock, trying to keep my mind occupied instead of being terrified while still taking care of myself properly for the little poppy seed that Seend to be growing.

@Cheetocat congratulations xx

@Cheetocat congrats ❤️ one day at a time x

Hello all, I’ve been away from this thread for a few months as I was getting down and far too obsessed. I haven’t been tracking or doing anything other than logging periods on flo. Only dtd once this month and it was cd12, which was too late according to flo (I have a 24 day cycle)

anyway, I was feeling very dizzy and lightheaded today and needing to wee an awful lot, just done a cb ultra early digital, expecting it to say not pregnant and it’s come back pregnant, I can’t quite believe it, I’m still 2 days away from af and it was only a dribble of a wee.

I’ve been spotting brown Sludgy discharge the last 2 days, but I get that 4 days before af too, I’ve also had it in pregnancy’s that resulted in babies and MC so not paying any attention to that atm.

anyway, after the cp in January and mc in oct I won’t be getting my hopes up, although I’ve calculated a due date of 27th feb, it’s a leap year next year so dangerous territory!

@Mannymoomin tentative congratulations lovely xx I'm sure that was a shock (a good shock) xx 😘

@Mannymoomin Congratulations - just goes to show it really does just take one time! I totally get how you're feeling, I got bfp a week ago and I'm 16dpo now, due date 25 Feb. Obviously early pregnancy is always anxious but it's ten times worse after a loss. It's almost like it hurts to be hopeful but I still can't help getting my hopes up. Will you keep testing?
Congratulations @Cheetocat as well - hope to see you both over on the February 2024 boards.
Baby dust to all those still trying, I hope you get your bfps very soon

Congrats to the new bfps :)
