Thank you @LeopardLover , I've been trying to keep smiling and get on with things but it's hard. My friend and I had planned on meeting up shortly but now I'm not sure how I'll cope.

Thank you @Annapolis35 it's awful isn't it as I am happy for her don't get me wrong but can't help but wonder why it hasn't happened for us and I feel broken 😞

LeopardLover · 14/08/2023 12:51

@Annapolis35 @Favofit Thank you both πŸ’• the scan went well and baby is fine, they have a few theories on the blood - I'm just hoping it stops now! They want me to go back if it happens again πŸ™ˆ they said after 3 occasions they do further investigations. I didn't realise how easy I had it with my son.

@Favofit Does your friend know you're TTC? If so, I think just be honest and say you really are pleased for her but you need a bit of time. I'd 100% understand that from any of my friends. You need to protect your heart. It will be your time soon x

Favofit · 14/08/2023 14:06

@LeopardLover that's so reassuring about the scan, hopefully it's smooth sailing from here on.

My friend is aware we're TTC, we talked about it in April and felt we were pretty much in the same boat and didn't understand why it was working . I do need to protect my heart ❀️

CAGH03 · 14/08/2023 16:13

Hope everyone's doing okay🀍

Opks are getting quite dark now so thinking it's time to BDπŸ₯°
But we've both been ill the past few days and I feel like crapπŸ₯²
But we completely missed our chance last month, and my body feels different, like it's ready now if that makes any sense!πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
Fingers crossed for everyone this month ❀️x

CAGH03 · 15/08/2023 07:53

Anyone else really struggling at the moment? I got a very positive ovulation test last night and we BD, twice, which is very unusual for us. However, I had a shower afterwards and just sat and cried because I know it's not going to work. It's been 13 months. My FH is booking in a doctors appointment soon for some tests and I've been tested and given the all clear that nothing is wrong. He doesn't understand why it makes me so upset as he sees it as we have the next 15 years to have children, although we both want one now. I just get so upset every month when my period arrives and it's so difficult πŸ₯²
How does everyone deal with these feelings? I need some sort of coping mechanism as I used to SH from 13-18 years old and have just turned a year since I did it last but since I stopped, I haven't found another coping strategy so I end up getting angry and taking it out on my fiancΓ©, which isn't fair πŸ₯² any help is appreciated and I hope everyone is doing well❀️
Sending hugs 🀍 xx

I'm so sorry to hear you are feeling so down. Well done on not SH for so long , that's a huge milestone. Unfortunately I cannot think of any specific support to feel better. Fertility can be such a minefield, a friend of mine took 18months to conceive and she and husband , super healthy and fit and all tests were fine. It can take some more time sometimes. Maybe try to do something lovely for yourself and remember it's not always straightforward. Your time will come hopefully very soon . Sending you loads of love ❀️

CAGH03 · 15/08/2023 15:11

@Favofit honestly Thankyou for telling me that☺️ I'm so worried there's something wrong with either of us that the doctors haven't mentioned. Due to ovulate today so will start the tww tomorrow 🀞🏼 if it doesn't happen this month it's not too bad as the wedding is in 10 months, I just get so upset every month when my period arrives πŸ₯² going to spend a day with my mum and sister in law wedding planning next week and have a family event next weekend that should distract me ❀️ xx

Wow those are very very strong lines

CAGH03 · 15/08/2023 18:50

@Favofit they were just as strong yesterday. Usually I get one peak and then lots of negatives. It feels like my body has changed as last month I got 5 days of strong positives. We BD last night twice so might try again tonight if he's up for it. If not will try tomorrow. Hoping it means my body has sorted itself out and is ready for a baby🀞🏼πŸ₯°xx

Vic231 · 15/08/2023 20:14

Hi all, hope you're all ok! @LeopardLover I am roughly 12DPO, had some very light bleeding today when I wiped this afternoon. This is very weird for me on a month where I will get my period and not due until Friday. The only time I had this was I June when it ended in a chemical so I'm freaking out a little bit. I did open my Flo app just after and it said today I could experience implantation bleeding, so maybe it's that! Thinking about testing soon but also wanting to hang on x

emmatcc1 · 15/08/2023 22:15

@CAGH03 I feel just like you do. I thought it’s gonna happen fast since we’re young but guess not. My partner is getting a sperm analysis soon hopefully it comes back good. Our ttc journey is still on a pause and it feels good to not track everything but either way we’re not preventing anything. I can’t shake off the feeling that there’s something wrong.

I know exactly what you mean! Mine is booking in with the doctors soon just to make sure everything is okay, but I just have this gut feeling something isn't. I don't want to mention it tho as I don't want him to think it's his fault 😩 hoping everything is okay for you! Almost at the tww as still getting high ovulation tests but hopefully it will be soon. I've been so emotional this month o just want af to start and get it over with x

justanothermummma · 16/08/2023 19:24

Hi lovelies! So officially no longer trying and I'm now on the injection, it's made my period really light, more like spotting so that's all I've logged on Flo and it's telling me to test, test, test. Tests are negative and I'm relieved with my current unemployment situ.

I was so excited for this journey but life has put me on a different path for a while. I'm currently sat next to DD2 who has just started snoring so I'm taking comfort in being my present for her and her sister right now.

I am eagerly following all your updates and hope some baby dancing gets another babe on the way! Hope you're all well, lots of love. Xxxx

What a curveball for you, I'm so sorry you've had to put things on hold.
The picture you just painted with your daughter sounds blissful and put a smile on my face, I hope when you get back at it ttc is successful and smooth sailing ❀️

It sounds like you're a lot happier at the moment :) just take your time and if you try again in the future, we are all here for you❀️

How is everyone else doing? Officially in the tww I think (?). Ovulation tests have been negative since about 5pm yesterday and had cramps over night. Also BD around 2am this morning tooπŸ₯² won't be testing this month until my period is Atleast 2 days late as I test every month a few days before and then get destroyed when it's negative so I'm going to wait this month and stay distracted!🀞🏼 anyone else in the tww?🀍x

Favofit · 17/08/2023 08:49

@CAGH03 a lot of BD, fingers crossed for you both ❀️ I'm also in the TWW but haven't tracked, decided to take a break from the strips and bbt as it was increasing my anxiety levels. I'm 11DPO (predicted according to Premom) but similar to you won't test until IF I'm late as it's soul crushing seeing BFN. Let's see what happens ❀️❀️

I've only used about 4 strips this month, 3 were strong + and then tested this morning to make sure it's gone back down so I can guess when I ovulate roughly as I'm not doing bbt at the moment as it caused so much stress! ❀️
It's so difficult seeing that - every month❀️
Fingers crossed for you! Keep us updated!❀️x

CAGH03 · 17/08/2023 09:11

Bloody hormones πŸ₯² sweating already and all I've done is make a coffeeπŸ₯²every month when I ovulated I sweat so much I'm just constantly hot. Does anyone else get this ? x

Annapolis35 · 17/08/2023 10:00

Good luck @Favofit and @CAGH03 taking a break from tracking does really help. I am also somewhere in the 2ww too, early days (3-4dpo) and can’t imagine this month will be any different. My mood has been a bit low and I am a bit worn out this month, I am just really tired and need a break.
