Hey all, 4po tomorrow! Would love company to make the days go quicker 😁

Cycle 2 TTC after an early MC last month! DP works nights so trying this month wasn't great timing wise. We managed to BD 5 and 2 days before ovulation so I'm hoping it's enough.

Ahhhh I’m so sorry @MyGardenDaisies so rubbish. Hopefully next cycle is the one!

I did another cheapie and obvs bfn. Contacted my doctors and they said my bloods still aren’t back and I’m still on my referral. Not very helpful 😅.

Joining a webinar with a fertility clinic tonight on IVF and treatments which should be interesting. We always said we wouldn’t bother with IVF but the more I’m looking into it the more I’m wanting to give it a whirl

@lolockdownbabyx you doing okay? Have you got different tests you can use? I've not tested, I've still got this spotting and I just can't bring myself to take a test.

Marie1990x · 14/10/2024 17:18

OverthinkingBrain · 14/10/2024 17:15

I'd defo give them a call and chase it up! How bloody annoying!!

They were less than helpful on the online enquiry thing. Never had a blood test take this long before. I’m scared they’ve lost my sample or something, and of course it’s the one that has to be on a certain day which would be typical 😂

@OverthinkingBrain I bought some wondfo I think they're called, did one after work and it was BFN. It wasn't a very long hold though so il prob try again in the morning. After that il prob just wait for AF tbh.
My temp went back up a little this morning so I felt hopeful again but never mind.

How you doing? Xx

I really really hope they get back to you. Have you called the doctors see if they have it on file?

Any luck this morning? I think I have a super faint line, not getting my hopes up because I'm spotting still.

Marie1990x · 15/10/2024 08:19

@OverthinkingBrain ohhhh exciting!!!! Do you have a pic? I haven’t even bothered testing this morning.

Yeah I did like an online chat thing with the receptionist at my doctors and she just said “bloods aren’t back yet. You have a gynae referral”. The referral still isn’t back on my app. I wouldn’t be too bothered about the bloods if I wasn’t anxious about them being date specific 😣.
Think I’m going to contact the clinic I’ve been referred to x

AmberM223 · 15/10/2024 08:32

I also got a faint line on a cheap clear and simple test this morning too so feel like i can accept it - for now!🙌🏻

Wishing everyone luck for testing today/ this week x

How many dpo are you? Can I see yours to see if it looks like mine? I did 2 tests this morning with fmu. One easy at home and one from home bargains. Can you see it?

4dpo tomorrow! Anyone else? :)

YESSSSS 100% there!!!! Omg congratulations 🥰

I’m sorry to ask for advice but I hoped someone had experienced similar. I took a pink dye test today and it was negative. I had the evap line on clear blue on Saturday.

Honestly though Friday to Monday I have felt rank, exactly like morning sickness when I was pregnant with DC. Dry retching, felt like I was on a boat. It was not food poisoning or a bug it felt hormonal.

is there a usual phase in your cycle where you can feel this? I never had it before?

AmberM223 · 15/10/2024 08:59

@OverthinkingBrain i can 100% see it!!
I didn’t take a pic of this mornings test, but i will at lunch when i’m home! I will put on my clear and simple test from last night - it was so faint you can hardly see it on the pic. Then this morning it was much clearer!! I was 10DPO yesterday (the pic below) and 11DPO today!
Quite shocked because i didn’t get a positive until missed period with my first!

4dpo tomorrow! Anyone else? :)
JKDcot · 15/10/2024 08:59

And it was not psychosomatic as I am TTC. I couldn’t eat a thing, and felt waves of nausea and banging headache just like morning sickness.

maybe just high progesterone prior to my period? But I am not due on still for another 5 days.

you guys are very experienced and I’d love some advice.

AmberM223 · 15/10/2024 09:00

@JKDcot how many DPO are you??

Ahh I see it!! I'm 11dpo today too, yesterday I tested negative. So 1 day really does make a difference. I'm spotting quite abit so not getting my hopes up yet as I've had a miscarriage before but trying to be positive. Good luck and congratulations x

JKDcot · 15/10/2024 09:02

@AmberM223 10 DPO. I’m so confused

OverthinkingBrain · 15/10/2024 09:02

Thank you! Will see how it goes I'm pretty nervous now. X

@AmberM223 10 DPO. I’m so confused

I tested yesterday at 10dpo and was negative. Today at 11dpo with fmu it was positive so 1 day does make a difference. Try again tomorrow or in 2 days, hcg levels rise every 48 hours.

JKDcot · 15/10/2024 09:05

@OverthinkingBrain thank you and I’m so excited for you!! Hope it keeps progressing.

the thing I’m confused about is all / any symptoms are just gone. Totally. I mean I feel absolutely normal.

Anonymousgirl2 · 15/10/2024 09:05

Hey guys I’ve been following your post now for days and super happy for everyone was just wondering how long you all have been ttc :)

@OverthinkingBrain thank you and I’m so excited for you!! Hope it keeps progressing.

If you look back at the chat I'm sure at some point I had said I was spotting and also felt so sick I was dry heaving at the sink. But then next day I was totally fine, I didn't have that with my miscarriage pregnancy or my 2 kids so it was weird for me. They do say every pregnancy is different and it could be the rise in progesterone like you said as some people are sensitive to it. With my 2 kids my nipples killed before my period was even due but this time nothing. So it's always different. Stay positive and test again and see how it goes. Good luck x

JKDcot · 15/10/2024 09:17

Thank you so so much @OverthinkingBrain I really massively appreciate your advice. I hope things go well for you.

I also when I was pregnant with my son didn’t have any symptoms until 6/7 weeks! Didn’t even test or know I was pregnant.

this time just feeling so bloody nauseous 7 DPO I was like what is going on? Will just have to wait and see what happens x

Just keep testing and try not to stress. It's all out of our control really, we just have to roll with it on this emotional roller coaster. I know people that have tested positive at 8dpo with one pregnancy and been sick to their stomachs and then second time around tested positive at 12dpo and not been sick. So who knows...

JKDcot · 15/10/2024 09:28

@OverthinkingBrain what a head f**k. I didn’t know any of this could happen! I just really wonder why I felt so sick for days and now nothing. Something weird was definitely going on. Will test again in a few days I think. Can’t drive myself mad.

I feel a bit embarrassed as I already showed my husband the positive clear blue result and he’s been so sweet and excited and now I feel I’ve let him down already and it is a lie
