I'm so so sorry. I hope you have speedy, calm recovery ❤️‍🩹

elle123355 · 07/02/2024 19:20

I'm. Feeling woozy but that's about it

@eelle123355 Hi lovely, hope you recover as quickly as possible from your surgery. Will be thinking of you 🌹

How is everyone else doing?

Beginningless · 08/02/2024 12:28

That was such a lot to get your head around so quickly @elle123355. Hope you’re getting to rest well today and are comfortable.

AF for me today…well wishes to everyone.

elle123355 · 08/02/2024 12:34

I'm feeling a lot better today just in a lot of pain, I had to have my tube taken out unfortunately it had pretty much nearly ruptured and I was bleeding internally x

WeightoftheWorld · 08/02/2024 17:47

Oh @elelle123355 sorry to hear that. I hope you can rest now and wishing you a smooth recovery.

MrsPepper82 · 09/02/2024 08:18

What a sad news @elle123355

I hope all goes as smoothly as possible 🥰 One tube will still work fine. What I actually was thinking when you wrote in hospital they ruled out ectopic was, that wow your medical system must be better as for me doctor said only way to rule out so early on (as it won’t show on ultrasound) is dropping hcg.
@Beginningless boo to AF and hug to you.

I dis my proov tests now and have gotten 2 white tests so both days pdg was high enough. Only 3 more tests to go and I never want to make these in my life. Horrible accuracy is needed and not mu strong suit so early in the morning so this time I caught some in canned cup and tested and hour later.
So my fear of messed up hormones is calming down.
I didn’t take a pregnancy test because I still am convinced it’s not normal to have implantation spotting so early and all my other signs aren’t unique- as always about normal progesterone rise so few more days and my temps and rhr should either rise or begin to slowly drop.

@MrsPepper82 I still have my fingers crossed for you! My implantation bleed this time was earlier than last time iirc.

And yep I finally got my BFP!

Oooh yayyy! Delighted for you, that’s great news. Hope you’re feeling a bit better illness wise too. Here’s hoping @MrsPepper82

I'm so sorry 😭 I hope your pain subsides quickly. Be gentle with yourself this next few days/weeks ❤️ what you've been through is heartbreaking both physically and emotional 🥺

I just did an AMH test this week. I chose to do it myself with one of those kits where you prick your own finger and then drop the blood into a tiny tube. Lets just say that was an "interesting" experience 😅 it was quite cheap so I'm not complaining.

I got the value of 3.49 which is quite good considering I'm 41! I'm quite happy about it. This means though, that our issue should be due to lack of egg quality 🤷🏻‍♀️

Still can't convince my husband to test his swimmers, but I'll keep insisting...

This month I'm not sure if we DTD in the right timing, but I did have 6 days of EWCM which was interesting. Oh well 🤷🏻‍♀️

Now we both have a bad cold that we think the kids gave us 🤧

MrsPepper82 · 10/02/2024 09:18

@WeightoftheWorld soo great news 😍
I got my proov pdg test positive also today with indication that is above their chart so although I didn’t have any intention to test I kinda found my self sticking that hcg strip also in 😣 bfn with no room for imagination. My rhr isn’t also moving anywhere, discharge is in modest amounts only bbt keeps moving up. So I know in theory there could still be too early but knowing my first children gave very high hcg numbers and in same tempo I would already now be seeing a start of a line if not more so thinking about next possibilities and hoping to skip that sad and cruel part that creeps in with AF arriving.

I woke up today with really bad ovulation pains...it felt worse than when it's AF. Ovulation pains seem to be getting worse each cycle.
Yesterday I tested negative for ovulation. Today it was positive but I think we won't be able to dtd as husband is at work. We have been dtd last few days in a row though, do you think that will be enough?

WeightoftheWorld · 10/02/2024 22:21

Thanks for the well wishes everyone.

Re ovulation, I'm sure I read somewhere that vast majority of pregnancies is from sex within the two days prior to ovulation day. But I can't remember where I read it so don't quote me on that!

I'm just absolutely terrified now I have the BFP to be honest. I thought I'd be happy but I just feel anxious. But I guess that's understandable when I've had two previous HG pregnancies. I just feel like a sitting duck, if it follows the same pattern as my last two I probably only have a few days of normal life left before it kicks off with a vengeance. Already spoken to the Pregnancy Sickness Support charity though and the GP and got the only first line anti sickness medicine I've never tried before which I collected today from pharmacy and will start tonight. The research shows starting medicine before symptoms even start can result in less severe sickness so fingers crossed.

I am going to bow out of here now so it can stay a safe space for everyone still trying. Wishing all you ladies lots of love and baby dust and thank you for being a supportive ear over the past few months 🌺🌹

Hi I'm doing okay today :) just tired and worn down. I don't know what's normal for after surgery so I'm just taking each day as it comes

MrsPepper82 · 11/02/2024 08:49

Hi 👋 @Christmas202
@Rose38 plenty of women have gotten pregnant from sex they had 5days before and were considering a no chances cycle 🤞I feel like I am loosing my originality already, as today I again had a test with faintest line that premom in their LH section identified as 0,09. Id I wouldn’t get blanks in between I would already think this is the default value on them. I only took it so that I could buy holiday tickets for late August. In real life you don’t have to tilt or trick it is there light pink and not disappearing.
my proov tests were all positive and today it is even higher than yesterday’s test an no faint ghost appeared even after 10min timeline that is their max and after that you should not read it. Bbt is high, cervix high soft closed.
And yesterday my DH said that he wouldn’t try anymore, as we (Estonia as a country) is neighbour to Russia and war is coming.
I actually are in women’s home defence league and should also start military training and be service ready 😣 So I am confused (as always 😂).

@MrsPepper82 I see the faint line on this test! Don't lose hope as of yet... 🙏

I’m struggling to even ovulate according to clear blue digital. 🤔
