[Sez281]

Hi ladies, just thought I'd create a new thread for anybody that wants to continue.
@Jadeypie
@Westy22
@Freddie15VES
@fleur89
@Strawb28
@DmcinT
@HopeAndStrength
@xxcxdonxx
And @SnookyPook for if/when you feel like you might want to come back xx

Sorry if I've forgotten anybody, I realise most of you guys have had your BFPs and there's only a few off us left waiting, but at least you know the thread is here so come back and keep us updated with all your lovely pregnancy stories 😊 For those of us still here, hopefully it won't be too much longer 🙏💖 xx

@Westy22 in relation to your last post (I couldn't reply) I did the exact same with OPK today but it went way down so not gonna waste anymore 😂 hopefully your cramps are a good sign! 🤞 I have every symptom under the sun but I'm only 7dpo so not reading anything into it for a few more days! @Jadeypie how you getting on? Any more spotting?

@Hankthehonk I knew I was forgetting somebody!

@Sez281 thanks for setting this up lol I was like omg where are my online friends 🤣

Fingers crossed there's some positive news over the next few days xx

Aw lovely to see u are all here❤️ Everything crossed for anyone testing over the next few days xx

Thanks for adding me in @Sez281 i like reading about everyone’s updates 💜

@Westy22 I was exactly the same haha thinking how can I find them haha sp thanks @Sez281 for doing the new thread x

I have a really good feeling gor you @westy hopefully the symptom spotting isn't driving you crazy yet!!

@Sez281 well had a bit yesterday morning then nothing all day had terrible backache today but am not sure if that's due to all the walking at the zoo yesterday and ac had a bit of spotting again today this takes me to day seven so it can't be implantation for this long plus still BFN. Seeing how I go I've the weekend then if nothing has stopped completely I will be sending myself the gp xx

@DmcinT @xxcxdonxx hope you both are doing well! @xxcxdonxx any scans yet? @Jadeypie definitely go see doc after weekend if things are still a bit haywire, hopefully you don't have to tho. I've a bit of back ache too but the opposite of you walking I've just been lying on my ass all day 😂

@Sez281 no scans as yet. I registered with my midwife during the week who said that I can call epu for a reassurance scan. I’ve called epu but it has to come via a gp referral so the tricky part is getting an appointment with them! Ive to call back first thing on Monday morning so hopefully I will get that arranged. I’m only 6 weeks tomorrow and my little miscarriage baby stopped growing at 6 weeks so in my head the nearer I can get to 7 weeks I think I will feel more comfortable that everything is ok xx

Aww thank you for starting a thread @Sez281

No problem @HopeAndStrength Hope everything going well for you! @xxcxdonxx my epau would be the same regarding referral 🙄, you'd assume a gp could just make a call though given the history. You're nearly there now, although I'm sure it feels like it's dragging. Hopefully the next week flies in xx

I'm glad you do @Jadeypie 🤣 sometimes I feel so positive like yes this is happening other times I'm like nah I'm so out already, but I feel like it's not totally depressing me like it has done before so atleast that's something. You sound like you've had a rough few days , hopefully everything settles.

Like a crazy lady I checked my cervix earlier its high, closed and hard which is different for me for this stage in my cycle, so hoping that's something. I know it's not a reliable source tho and theres conflicting views on it, I just like trying to work out what my body is doing and also it passes time 🤣🤣

When do you think you'll test @Sez281?

Fingers crossed you get your scan @xxcxdonxx it's mad how you need a referral, epu told me to just ring them when I get pregnant again and they will happily do early scans...it should be a given. Hopefully all is well xxx 🤞

@Westy22 I tested this evening 🙈 I've a tonne of cheapies and DP is away for the weekend so I'm bored😂, obviously I knew it would be BFN but I'll probably do one every day now. I'm packing to go on hols on Monday. AF due on Wednesday so I have a toiletry bag with loads more tests, plus the progesterone suppositories that my GP prescribed just on the slightest chance I get a BFP but I've also packed all my sanitary stuff and OPKs as I'm really not getting my hopes up too much. If it is negative I think that being away will definitely help like it did with my CP in July. Plus it's way more fun dtd in a hot country 😂 Pmsl with your passing time comment and the cervix, I've tried to do it but honestly haven't a clue what I'm at! It sounds like you do though so fingers crossed it's a good sign! I need to get out of the house tomorrow and keep busy, I'm driving myself crazy 🙈

Haha I would've done the same 🤣 I sneak around trying to open cheapies packets without being heard when hes in, because he would moan if he knew how i was 🤣🤣

I don't really know what I'm doing I just go by how it feels 🤣 and then Google it lol tbh it changes like the wind tho so isn't a reliable indicator 🙈

Wish I was going away lol I've got one more week in work then I'm off for 11 days so we are trying to plan to do something nice, I'm just happy time off correlates with my next fertile window 🤣🤣x

Oh that's great that you'll be off, there's nothing better then the fertile window being during a chilled out time. If my AF arrives as expected Wednesday I'll still be on hols at start of it so it'll be a lot nicer than the way it can feel so forced at home👌.. My painful boobs woke me up this morning. They're killing me! 🥴 I've had it since my peak day so not pregnancy related, definitely just a weird hormonal thing but between that and the cramps if it continues after AF I think I'll book into my gp when home to see what's going on. I doubt vitamins can have this affect, they're so heavy and painful 😣

@Sez281 thanks for the new thread and the tag! I'll be watching the thread over the next few days hoping for some bfps 🤞🤞🤞
I got my bfp at 9dpo with two pregnancies so I'm an early testing advocate 🙈

All OK here, I'm 15 weeks now, I find I'm on mn less now that I'm feeling a bit less anxious. My daughter has been starting nursery this week so that's an exciting big transition, she's had ups and downs.
I've booked a 16w scan on 11 September and will find out the sex, I'm convinced it's a boy. Happy either way but just desperate to know! Hope all other pregnancies going well?

@Hankthehonk oh wow 15weeks!!! That has flown (probably not so much for you) you'll soon be finding out gender. It would be nice to have one of each, wouldn't it? I have a DS we are applying for his nursery to start in April, and it makes me so sad he's growing up so quick!

@Sez281 in my last pregnancy I had the same sore boobs from ov and they just got worse and worse and didn't ease up for when AF was due! Could be promising xx

Nothing new for me just abit of brown spotting like the end of AF so I'm praying it's going to stop I'm really starting to get fed up of it! I will be making a appointment on Monday to see the gp because this hasn't been normal whatsoever for me so I want a mot before carrying on next cycle. I'm also going to have to invest in some opk because I have zero clues where I am now regarding cycle lengths ect or even if I am ovulating. so yeh the female body causing havoc as per 🤣

Aww @Hankthehonk 15 weeks, that's amazing! Also great that your not on MN as much and the anxiety has alleviated a bit! 😊

@Jadeypie definitely worth going to get it checked out so you can go into next cycle prepared and armed with opks! I had this awful breast pain in my February pregnancy too but it didn't kick in till like 6 weeks, I've never experienced anything like this from ovulation 🥴 Would be great if you're right but going to try not get my hopes up. I'll text again this evening though of course 😂

test I hate that we can't edit these posts 🙄

Just did a test and swear I can see a whisper of a vvvfl. I'm sure it's just an indent and I know I'm waaaay to early to be testing at 8dpo so now I'm kicking myself cos I've gotten my hopes up a bit and realistically I won't know for a couple more days 🙈

@Sez281 don't I'm excited haha!! I really hope it's the beginning of your BFP xx

@Jadeypie I really think it was an indent. I've just done another which was obviously a bfn as only an hour later. Literally no point me testing so early. I only got my vvvfl at 11DPO in July and I'm only 8 now so I'm going to take it as an evap or indent and try again tomorrow. Just raging with myself! 🙈

@Sez281 I have my fingers crossed for you!
I've officially moved into bump territory now, and have started feeling some small movements (usually in the evening).
My scan is next week so all being well I'll be able to let you all know how things are going and what we're having.

Awww that's amazing @HopeAndStrength ☺️ Loving all these positive pregnancy updates!

Ahhh this is exciting @Sez281 fingers crossed its something, I'm still getting negatives atm so losing a little bit of hope lol but few days left so we shall see xx

Ahh lovely to hear your update @Hankthehonk good luck with the scan next week ❤️
