Starting thread number 4, can you believe it? Congrats to everyone who has been lucky the last few threads and for those who have had recent losses again or new, keep strong, you are amazing. To those still trying, it will happen, myself included there and we will support each other.

I'll just include a foreward for anyone new who joins us, this is a supportive group for anyone who has had a loss, no matter how early or late. Everyone here has experieced the upset and understands.

Ive gone through the list and more than likely left people out so add anyone you think I've forgotten.

@Ella31 thankyou, it's just getting that closure when your a hormonal wreck, you just need one way or the other, not your body playing silly games 😑, I know there's only you ladies who understand what I'm feeling. I know cp doesn't really mean anything, I was low and swollen with my last pregnancy. But I thought id give it a go checking regardless. I suppose false hopes better than no hope but infuriating all the same. Hope you're having a lovely weekend so far.

Regarding cervical position, yes I'm only saying that because it's a rabbit hole of variation. Please don't be worrying, it's going to take time for your body to adjust again but it does. And everyone is different they really are.

@Ella31 Thankyou for letting me moan 💗

Morning ladies, just need a vent. Put a tampon in yesterday because my spotting continued last night after some cramps. I thought this is it, af rearing her ugly head finally. Cried myself to sleep. Woke up took it out and hardly anything on it and dry! Done a cervix check to see if any blood up there and nothing. Cervix high closed and firm, WTF?! Anyway, done another test with FMU and still negative. Just want this cycle to be done with already. Now 13dpo. Premom suggests 2 days late (short cycle last month) although I'm usually 28 day cycle so that takes me in my head due on today / tomorrow. I know I'm not out until AF comes but I would have thought id see some flicker on a test atleast. Nothing to this post really, just needed to get the words out my head. Sorry ladies.

How's everyone's weekends going? Going to take my frustration out on pulling weeds out my jungle of a garden today.

That's so annoying, it feels like our bodies are constantly playing us when you just want to know what's going on 😞

4DPO here today, went to get coffee and a treat and brought our youngest for a walk and to the park to try and pass the time. I really struggle with the TWW, it just feels like forever every month.

It's the longest and then you get to 11dpo and you wish you could go back to 8dpo to be in with a chance 😆😅😅

Anytime. I think ttc and the death and loss that sometimes comes with it is so taxing on the couple so everyone here is doing a great job no matter where you are in your journey be it waiting for the scans or a bfp. It's tough , so well done

Literally every time. When I'm 2dpo I'm cursing the long wait and when I'm 11 I'm trying to go back in time 😅🤣🤣

@DonnaWhat sorry you’re having a rubbish day. The waiting around during TTC is hard. You just want an answer so you can move on either way. I too have had a day of pulling weeds out the garden!

DonnaWhat · 21/07/2024 17:59

@Figtree11 good day for it, good to keep me occupied. Think af may show her face, spotting again although did this last night and then nothing. How are you?

moosey89 · 21/07/2024 18:19

1dpo for me, back into the 2ww. Had a wonderful weekend with my other half's brother and their family yesterday (seeing their 8 month old was a whole lot better than I thought it would be and I spent a lot of time having baby cuddles and playing and it gave me so much joy) 💓

Then today I went to a chilli and cheese festival with a friend and me and my partner are about to sit down to a takeaway thai green curry with a movie after a lovely dog walk.

Feeling refreshed and ready for the next week. Hope everyone else has a wonderful week and we see some BFPs in this thread x

Definitely, I’m all for finding things to keep myself occupied.
I’m doing ok thank you - I’ve had a nice weekend, although this afternoon I’ve got that anxious feeling in my chest & no idea why as I feel alright. I hope the spotting doesn’t continue for too much longer.

@moosey89 that sounds like a lovely weekend! I’m glad all went ok with seeing the baby. I find it’s pregnant people more than babies that I find triggering

CadoAvo · 21/07/2024 21:26

@Lovedatforme when are you going to test?

I'm aiming to try and resist till 10DPO which would be Saturday, but knowing me I'll cave at 7/8DPO. You?

I'll try and hold out until Sunday when I'll be 9DPO. First one I had my positive at 9 and the second one was at 10DPO.

Good luck with the blood tests results this week @Figtree11 and try not to worry.

I am the worst for testing early 🙃But I'm going to try my best to wait.

Thank you. Hoping so hard I get discharged.
Period has officially finished, but still got a bit of stomach ache today so hope that’s nothing to worry about.
If the hospital do discharge me I will start with the ovulation tracking.
Hope you are ok

@Ella31 they called me around 4pm on a Tuesday last time so I’ll be waiting by my phone same time tomorrow 😂
I hope it’s not too painful tomorrow. When will you next ovulate?

I'm day 7 now so I normally ovulate day 20 so I'm going into clinic on day 16 for an ultrasound to see if follicile looks mature and ready to drop. Followed up by pdg test 7 days later.

Oh hopefully they'll ring. Getting your af is a great sign though

@Onthedouble123 How are you? Your next scan is this week isn't it? Xx

Onthedouble123 · 22/07/2024 18:37

@DonnaWhat hanging in here thanks! Scan is tomorrow afternoon. Thankfully I'm so busy at work that it's kept my mind off things for the most part. How are you? Did AF arrive properly yet?

@Ella31 good luck for your procedure tomorrow.

And @Figtree11 I hope you get your phonecall tomorrow with good news!

DonnaWhat · 22/07/2024 18:44

@Onthedouble123 Af arrived last night, heavy as usual. Just ready for the next cycle. I'm only going to keep trying until the end of the year. I'm 38 thus week and I would ideally want a bambino before I'm 40. If I give myself a cut off then I can atleasr make some sense of everything in my head and what will be will be. It's that last week off 2ww that sends me crazy. I have everything crossed for you. You'll have to let us know how you get on. Has spotting and everything stopped now?
