Also does anyone believe in signs?

Before I found out we lost our baby I had one single magpie follow me round for weeks.... It clicked then why!!

But these are happening the past 2 weeks....
Always 3 or 4 magpies
I saw 4 magpies whilst driving... Coming back about 3 hours later same route in exactly the same place was a rainbow.
My Oh went into a cake shop to get me a treat, all normal cupcakes apart from one single box in the middle of "it's a boy!"
My teen was scrolling Instagram.
She came across a reading from a tarot card woman and it's was this "don't worry about your age, your husband will be a great help, rainbow baby, twin boys" (I am forever talking about being too old to conceive again)
Twice I've had white feathers, one dropped at my feet... The other was behind my head

Not sure but I always look at signs 🌈

@Kellyaust defo sounds like your body's gearing up for something! Av had terrible back ache and cramps! If the boobs kick off in the next few days Al be convincing myself I'm pregnant! Tww drives us mad tho it's like we become hypersensitive to every little thing our bodies do.

I also defo believe in signs aswell!

Xx

Kellyaust · 18/07/2023 19:57

@Jadeypie yep we notice every little thing it does my head in coz when I've been preg before I didn't even notice any symptoms and only took tests on the off chance when period was due 🤦‍♀️ now I'm like a mad woman.

Kellyaust · 18/07/2023 20:09

I'm seeing a lot of "oops we weren't trying to conceive but we've had an accident" posts..... With bfp that are unhappy about it... And it's really getting to me 😩

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 18/07/2023 21:22

@Kellyaust I promised myself I wouldn't symptom spot this time round and I am big time! My last pregnancy I didn't notice anything either it was a total shock I didn't expect falling first cycle because it took me five years for my first!

And yeh it's very annoying posts like that! I totally understand how long have u been ttc x

Kellyaust · 18/07/2023 21:27

@Jadeypie i said the same no way I was symptom spotting this month but here I am! We have a 2 year old, we started trying again January, fell preg February, but miscarried in may 😩 what about you?

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 18/07/2023 21:34

@Kellyaust your story is exactly the same as mine! Two year old started trying in January got pregnant then unfortunately had a ectopic which totally put me off trying again but we finally feel ready this month also had to wait three months to try again. I'm a bit nervous but hoping I am lucky again even tho I need to be more realistic! These twinges and back ache have fully made me obsessed thinking I could I be 🤣 av even been looking at when I got pregnant with my DS and the symptoms are quiet the same so that fueling the tww madness x

Kellyaust · 18/07/2023 21:43

@Jadeypie gosh yeah so similar, did you end up losing a tube with your ectopic? We were all good for 10 weeks went for 12 week scan and sac was measuring 10 weeks and baby stopped growing at 6 weeks.... We had no idea. I was growing n still had sickness etc. I never marked down symptoms before so I've no idea 🤦‍♀️ @thejollytrolleydolly is similar to us too with a 2 year old and and mmc same time, it's crazy how many women you meet through this that have lost babies! Fingers crossed for us all this month 🤞

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 18/07/2023 21:48

@Kellyaust aww that's so heartbreaking for you I'm sorry you had to go through that! I was 7weeks and nope I had to have medical management which dragged out for four weeks was awful but least my tube was saved I suppose! It really is crazy u realise your not alone in this ttc. This is the first time I have actually got involved with threads obviously I've stalked them for years haha. Friends and family don't really get it or all the stuff we know about conceiving ECT so it's a nice place to come and yes 100% Fingers crossed for us all 🥰

Kellyaust · 18/07/2023 21:54

@Jadeypie that's amazing that your tube was saved but obviously heartbreaking for you did you have any symptoms of the ectopic? Mine was so drawn out... Found out 5th may after some brown spotting... Lost baby 8th may, had medical management 11th may for a lot of retained tissue, 2 weeks later was still bleeding finally stopped 6th june, then got an infection still had a small amount of retained tissue... Finally period 30th june so all should be gone now. Then 2 bouts of thrush from the antibiotics. Lovely. And yep totally agree, none of my family speak to me about it, which I find awful... They don't know what to say but I'd rather they say something!!! So nice to be on here around the same situations

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 18/07/2023 22:06

@Kellyaust yeh I had a bleed which I thought was a miscarriage but then two weeks later I got positives so I thought bloody hell but I was getting really bad pains in my back and up my backside also brown spotting so they got me in for the scan and the baby wasn't in my womb they couldn't actually locate it for sure but suspected behind my left overy my levels where through the roof aswell so that's why it took so many weeks. It amazes me how strong us women are! Av actually started telling more people about mine because a loss shouldn't be hid!

Hopefulfirstround · 18/07/2023 22:13

@Kellyaust we had the exact same story , got pregnant , normal 8 week scan and then at 10 weeks had another scan and it had stopped working :( I hope yer doing ok

Kellyaust · 18/07/2023 22:13

@Jadeypie wow that's crazy 😩 you don't realise how many things can go wrong 😔

OP posts:
Jadeypie · 18/07/2023 22:28

@Kellyaust am staying positive this time round plus being under the epu gives me reassurance aswell!

Suppose I'll be filling use in on some more symptoms tomorrow hahah x

thejollytrolleydolly · 18/07/2023 22:33

@Kellyaust @Hopefulfirstround @Jadeypie I absolutely champion taking about mc and baby loss. I felt so alone in mine until I started speaking about it at work and realised so many people had experienced the same!! I personally had bleeding just before 10 weeks and had a scan to tell me that the baby had stopped growing at 5+1/2 weeks. The worst thing for me was knowing that I thought my baby was growing but then finding out I had been carrying around a foetus that had ceased to grow for 5 weeks ☹️ I do believe everything happens for a reason though and like the nurse said maybe there was severe complications with the baby which meant it wouldn't have a good quality of life which is why the body stopped growing it. Our bodies are so clever and they know what's best. It doesn't make it any easier but it makes sense xx

Kellyaust · 18/07/2023 22:33

@Jadeypie yes my epu nurse was amazing and even though I've only had 1 MC she said to ring her straight away if I get another bfp n she will get me in for early scans and progesterone. And yes I'll be doing the same 😂

OP posts:
thejollytrolleydolly · 18/07/2023 22:36

@Kellyaust I absolutely believe in signs! Personally I relate to songs that get me through hard times or indicate how I should proceed. I know that sounds weird but it really stands out to me! Im a firm believer in asking the universe for what you want too. If you manifest it, it will come (when it's ready) xx

Jadeypie · 18/07/2023 22:38

@thejollytrolleydolly aww I get that mind set that must of been awful to go through I totally agree that our bodies know more than we know! And yes everything does happen for a reason even the painful ones ❤️

@Kellyaust yeh they said the same to me to make sure little bean is where it should be x

Kellyaust · 19/07/2023 06:24

@thejollytrolleydolly yes.... Music speaks to me so loud! Ever since I was young. So I agree there!

Any news this morning girls???

I've had insomnia, a mad dream I even woke myself up speaking to OH in my sleep 🤔, still sore throat and headache 🤞 5dpo now

OP posts:
LittleMiss2023 · 19/07/2023 06:45

I’m noticing slight cramping and quite a warm face? Which is unusual! Hate this symptom spotting 😂

thejollytrolleydolly · 19/07/2023 06:53

This is my frer this morning... it's a squinter so I'm hoping this is an early BFP! I'm dubious after my false positive last month but this one is lighter than that so fingers crossed!! 8dpo today xx

1DPO... Any tww buddies?

@thejollytrolleydolly any symptoms at all? 💖

OP posts:
thejollytrolleydolly · 19/07/2023 07:07

@Kellyaust last night I got a bit nauseous when I was cooking dinner, more creamy cm than usual, keep having a tangy taste in my mouth like I've licked a battery and twitchy type pains down the right side of my uterus. I get the odd dizzy spell too. I woke up a bit nauseous today with lower back pain but that's it for symptoms today xx
