Congratulations @Racket81! It doesn't get more real than that!

Racket81 · 24/05/2024 13:34

Thak you @KittyFantastica afyer 2 amd a half years trying amd 1 failed attempt ready I had almost thought it was never going to be. Need to het to thay 12 week ark though which is 16th July I will be on holiday in gran canaria. No.alcohol and no water sports but it's worth it. It won't feel real until I feel.pregnant or start showing. I have a 10 year old amd 8 year old already from first husband I just can't wait to feel pregnant and so exciting for my partner as this will be his forst if it all goes well.

Racket81 · 24/05/2024 13:36

Wishing you all the luck too be nice if you were next. X

Racket81 · 24/05/2024 13:37

Giving birth age 43 is a scary prospect though. I will prob be a c sec as one emergency court sec and a traumatic v back second time ended up in surgery myself after birth. Omg I'm so excited but don't want to get carried away.

KittyFantastica · 26/05/2024 08:30

Looks like my cycle is definitely still out of whack. I spotted for three days, had one day of no spotting, then had bleeding yesterday. It seemed too heavy for spotting, but a bit light for a period, but I'm going to guess it's AF. I'm devastated as I really thought my cycle had finally returned to normal when I ovulated day 15. It has been nearly 10 weeks since my D&C now and I could scream. It was only CD22 yesterday. My luteal phase was only 4 days before spotting started :(.

RW269 · 26/05/2024 11:47

@Racket81 congratulations! Super happy for you all the best wishes to get to the 12 week mark! 🤞✨

@KittyFantastica Oh no I’m so sorry to hear that :( I know me and my obsessed ways would still take a test in a week or so to rule out any implantation bleeding. You’ve got this though, it’s good you’re getting back bit by bit to your regular cycle. Very frustrating for you though sending all the love ❤️

Congratulations to you both! Sending you all the well wishes and baby luck! ✨

@ButterflySkies plodding along thanks! Couple days and I should know if this is the winning cycle or not haha! Got everything crossed I can’t even explain how much 😂 how are you doing? How’s baby Olaf getting along? ☺️ xx

KittyFantastica · 06/06/2024 09:59

Glad to see those expecting are getting along okay, long may it continue.

I'm feeling much more like myself, so I do feel better, but the frustration of all the issues left over from the MC is bad. I'm only on my 2nd cycle since the D&C in March. The first was anovulatory and only lasted 18 days total. Sadly, it looks like this one is shaping up to be the same 😔. I had a pseudo surge on CD9 and nothing since, though both CB digital and monitor are giving flashing smiley and 'high' for the last 7 days. After previously having had such reliable cycles, I'm not coping well.

I have a blood test booked for Monday, so hopefully they can see where the issue is and do something. I'm trying not to hold my breath though, I've heard NHS doesn't like to prescribe anything hormonal aside from the pill. I'm taking so many vitamins, I could rattle if I jumped 😆.

All I can think of is I should be nearly entering 3rd trimester for my first baby now, and now far behind for my second. Nature is so cruel.

Anyway, attached my Premom chart just in case anyone is interested or has seen anything similar and can reassure 😅

Aww @KittyFantastica it's so heartbreaking isn't it I remember my due date passing in February and thinking I'd have a baby now. And look at me a couple of month later I get a possative test again. It's got to be your turn next. Xxxx

RW269 · 07/06/2024 22:26

Huge congratulations @RW269

RW269 · 08/06/2024 11:01

@ButterflySkies thank you so much! ♥️
soooo excited, so nervous though!
Booked in for an early scan in a week and a half just to make sure everything is sticking nicely and to calm my nerves a little bit! ☺️ Can’t believe it’s actually happened here’s hoping it sticks around 🤞🤞🤞

@KittyFantastica thank you! I’ve got everything crossed we will be seeing an update from you with good news soon ♥️♥️♥️

Sooner than anyone imagined @RW269 🤯

Mind absolutely blown. I'm only 9DPO. I didn't even get a whiff of a squinter until 11DPO the last two times. I'm guarding my heart mightily because my cycle has been absolutely insane the last month and a half, I don't think I've got much in the way of uterine lining going by my last two AFs and I've been temping. All was looking good until today when the temp took a nose dive below the base line, so AF could well be on her way. Having said that, I did have a disturbed sleep last night, so I'm holding on to hope.

YouveGotAFastCar · 08/06/2024 14:29

Oh congratulations @RW269 and @KittyFantastica !

Unfortunately I think I’ll be back here next month. I’m heartbroken but trying to hold it together for my toddler. I expect I’ll start bleeding overnight, and then I guess I’ll just see how long it takes for everything to settle.

RaineyNina · 08/06/2024 15:00

14dpo according to app, although BBT rise was not detected till cycle day 21 so could have ovulated anytime between cycle day 17-20. I’m now cycle day 31, AF late by a couple of days now, 2 negative pregnancy tests using clear blue digital today and a couple of days ago. Any hope this cycle? Feeling deflated that my period is later than normal as my husband works away for 6 weeks at a time, he is now likely to miss my next 2 ovulation days. Images for reference

@KittyFantastica no way!!! Oh my goodness me, I’ve got everything crossed for you this is a sticky one!! 🤞🤞🤞 congratulations!! So happy to hear this!

@YouveGotAFastCar oh no I’m sorry to hear that :( I’ve got everything hopeful for a bfp for you soon ♥️

YouveGotAFastCar · 08/06/2024 16:44

Thank you 💕 I won’t lie, it’s been rough. I was so excited and surprised to test positive last Saturday. It seemed to all be going well. Took a clearblue on Thursday when my period was due - strong positive. Did a weeks indicator yesterday which said 2 - 3.

But negative tests this morning. Super faint this afternoon. I think I’ve had the tiniest amount of blood and my temperature plummeted overnight. It feels so cruel.

ButterflySkies · 08/06/2024 20:05

@RW269 fingers crossed for a sticky little bean im so thrilled for you!!! Let me know how the scan goes!! Such an exciting time!

And @KittyFantastica im so thrilled for you too!! Got everything crossed after so much heartache, what a lovely update to read. How are you feeling love?

Honestly the two loveliest updates today!! Xx

So sorry @YouveGotAFastCar and @RaineyNina - it's so bloody cruel TTC at times. Take care of yourselves both of you xxx
