2WW - How are we all feeling?

[Bb542]

Who else is in the 2WW currently? How many dpo are you? What symptoms do you have? How do we make time go faster?🤣

Fingers crossed for us all 🤞🏼❤️

@Nic17 nope absolutely no sign of af no spotting, nothing . So who knows I may have implanted late as my cycle length is usually 33-34 days lately so it may be a nice surprise tomorrow . Yes def fmu in the morning will use same home bargains test as I did sat so I can see line progression if any. I should know for sure by tomorrow . Prepared either way but I do see lots of people not testing positive properly for a good few days after af due xx

@Hollycharlie congrats! Glad it’s going up for you 😊 that’s really good news!
I am out, AF has come now ☹️ was good to have you ladies to talk to xx

@NMB85 ah thanks I’m not sure if it’s went up yet I’ll hopefully be able to tell tomorrow. Sorry to hear this 😭😭so much stress all this. Good luck for next month x

@NMB85 sorry to hear AF came best of luck for next month! X

@Hollycharlie excited for an update tomorrow!! How many days late are you now?

@1111hope so I’m 17 dpo so I’d say 3 days late 😬😬😬I’ve seen so much about implantation and if it’s to the later side of implantation that it can take a while for HCG to rise. Who knows. I do feel pregnant but I guess that means nothing when you’ve had a mmc 😬I will update as soon as I know ❤️xx

@1111hope @Nic17 AF turned up 😭😭😭think it must’ve been chemical like I expected. 🤯it’s ok I was well prepare for it. Xx

@Hollycharlie I am so so sorry, god she can be cruel. In awe of your strength but look after yourself and go easy xxxxxx

@Nic17 awe thanks hun. Xxxx

Sorry @Hollycharlie 😭
mad how many of us have had chemicals this month 💔

@Holl89 I know so odd. Onwards and upwards better knowing now than several months in xx

@Hollycharlie my actual heart!! I’m so sorry honey 🤍🤍 baby aspirin, magnesium + folic acid if you’re not doing those 3 already xxx

@1111hope thank you so much. I’m on folic but not the rest I’ll give it a try . I’m fine just lucky I have a child already. I can’t imagine how awful it would be for those still waiting for their first. My heart goes out to them all. Xxx

@Hollycharlie im still waiting for my first 🥺💔

@1111hope is it safe to take baby aspirin without consulting with a dr first? I don’t take magnesium either! What strength do you take? X

@Holl89 hope you get your 🌈 very soon. Xxxx

@1111hope what is baby aspirin xx

@Holl89 I am taking baby aspirin (75mg) once daily. This was self prescribed but I did tell my GP who said there was likely no harm in me taking it. Time will tell if it helps. I started taking it from the day I got my BFP. Lots of anecdotes/research online which I trawled through before deciding xx

@Jeragade123 @Holl89 @Hollycharlie

id been doing lots of research on baby aspirin and was going to try it if I wasn’t successful this time as I’ve read loads of stories whereby people have carried to full term after losses, it sends more blood to your placenta and a lot of people do it without doctor prescribing. The dosage I read is the same @Nic17 is taking 75mg - I am obviously not a medical professional or anything it was just something I was willing to try as I’d done a bit of research on it.

magnesium is something my mum recommended, it’s in the pregnancare vitamins I take but my mum told me a woman she knows (can’t remember the country she’s from) but they all take magnesium when trying to conceive as it helps it stick. I’d have to do some research into the dosage if I was to take it but as my pregnancy vitamins have it I wouldn’t know exactly what dose is required.

hope all this helps xx

@1111hope I've been taking magnesium since you recommended it and I did some googling! It actually isn't in my multivitamin (seven seas) so I'm glad you mentioned it.

I've been taking this one https://www.vitabiotics.com/products/ultra-magnesium-tablets?variant=29112666718277&network=googlex&placement=&keyword=&device=&campaignid=18064843341&adgroupid=&creativeid=&saffsrc=googlex&saffpt=&safkw=&saffdv=&safcam=18064843341&saffgrp=&safad=&accounttid=6427961420&safacc=6427961420&gaddsource=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9nnvJjRgwMVWxkGAB0feg8QEAQYAyABEgLNAfDD_BwE

@Nic17 oh I’m so glad it’s helping you!! How far along are you now? I am officially past the scary part as I miscarried at 5w 3d last time and today i am 5w 4d! Still scared of course haha just glad I’ve made it further than last time :) xx

@1111hope that's such a milestone for you!

I'm 5 weeks today and my previous loss was at 5+4, so I'm a nervous wreck.

I did however get my 3+ on a digital this morning which I never got last time, so that's something!

Oops - meant to add that I never got that last time!

Oh jeez, I did say that already, my brain isn't working, I am sorry 😂😂

@Nic17 haha girl baby brain got you 🤣🤣 well that’s amazing you got the 3+ definitely a good sign!! It makes me laugh how you’ve probably done 200 tests out of fear and I’ve done 2 tests out of fear 🤣🤣 I emailed the hospital today im so nervous for the first scan!! I hope it will be next week xx

@1111hope it really has! I went to the shops yesterday and managed to leave my phone at home, spent a good hour in town worrying I'd lost it and retracing my steps 😂😂

Oh I know, honestly the testing has driven me mad and I feel SO relieved to have decided to stop testing now. I wish I'd been like you, silly brain!

I'm officially in my fertile window of this cycle girls. Anyone else trying again?
