Hey im currently 2dpo today so looking for buddies to go along with as the wait till test time is sooo long!!!

This will be my 3rd but havent been actively trying 😂 had an accident with husband around fertile window then was like fuck it and we did it 4 more times over my fertile window 😂 we would be more than happy so thought we'd just go with it.

No symptoms yet

I know this 2 weeks wait is just a nightmare however I know if I do get bfp I'll just be as nervous waiting for my scan, hoping NHS will scan me early due to my previous misscarriages!

My daughter is 5 (going on 15) she keeps asking for a little brother or sister too x

Thistimearound · 13/10/2024 17:53

Similar situation here - about 4 or possibly 5 DPO.
Also trying for number 3. We’ve actually spent YEARS going back and forth on whether we wanted or could afford this and finally decided that we do and we can and that (especially given my age) it’s now or never. Despite the fact that it’s month one and we’ve spent years and years debating it, I feel like this feels very much like the right decision.

Started by telling myself I wouldn’t obsess or track or test early and of course I’m doing 2/3 already and probably will test early too..

LLLTB · 13/10/2024 18:53

@JoMummyJessica aw yes i feel you on that! My eldest daughter is also 5 and like a teenager 😭 i also have a 3 year old daughter aswell but she is super chill 👌🏻

@Thistimearound aw yeah i had been thinking about it alot bit money is always in the back of my mind. Although this yeah we have been alot betted off financially so defiantly can cope with another. I just think when they are older there will be more family to spend time with if theres 3 of them 😄

Im going to try hold out testing till atleast 10dpo. With my second i got a positive test at 9dpo and once i start testing i find it hard to stop 😂

OP posts:
JoMummyJessica · 13/10/2024 19:30

I'm going to try hold out till my period due date as I don't want to get my hopes up too early due to the other misscarriages! Found out with my daughter at 9dpo and the two which ended un misscarriages I found out at 8dpo so I'd rather wait!
I'm saying this now but come 8dpo I will probably cave and test anyway

LLLTB · 14/10/2024 11:03

Im going to try hold out aswell but know i will struggle. Weird today my boobs are very sore without even touching them which is weird unless im going to come on af next week 🤷‍♀️ im sure its way to early for those kind of symptoms if i were pregnant

JoMummyJessica · 14/10/2024 11:19

I've been looking into symptoms too as I've had bit of cramping on my left side but maybe down to ovulation (hoping) prob never noticed before as this is first month trying (had 2 previous misscarriages) so think I'm defo symptoms spotting! Fingers crossed for us all this cycle

Figtree11 · 14/10/2024 11:44

Please can I join? I’m 3dpo today.
Didn’t ovulate til CD34 following 2 losses in the past year & complications from the last one.
Had quite a lot of ovulation pain this month, but now feeling better. Want to try & hold out testing until my period is due

LLLTB · 14/10/2024 11:49

Ofc @Figtree11 the more the merrier 😅
Ive had really strong ovulation pains this month too! On my right side, cant wait till test time now we have a little chat going so hope there as positives for us all ❤️ make us some summer babies.

OP posts:
Thistimearound · 14/10/2024 11:56

I’m going to try and hold out testing until the weekend at least I think - maybe even next Monday if I can stand to wait.

I thought I was going to feel excited now we’ve decided to do this but I forgot how frustrating it can be just ticking days off the calendar.

Figtree11 · 14/10/2024 11:58

Thanks @LLLTB i haven’t noticed such obvious ovulation pains before, but maybe I’m just more in tune with my body at the moment!
Fingers crossed for us all 🤞🏻

One thing that is bothering me is that I have a recurrent miscarriage appt end of November, so wondering if I should have waited to TTC after then, but it’s been postponed once so don’t want to keep waiting

LLLTB · 14/10/2024 12:06

@Figtree11 hmm yeah it must be frustrating if it keeps getting cancelled. Im sure they have had ladies come into those appointments pregnant again so try not to worry.

OP posts:
Figtree11 · 14/10/2024 12:22

@LLLTB thanks - I could be worrying for no reason this month 😆
Do you usually get any symptoms before a BFP?

LLLTB · 14/10/2024 12:30

@Figtree11 tbh i cant remember last time with my 1st i was only 21 and didn't even understand how to conceive at that point but got pregnant 1st month i didn't take contraception lol a month before i got married.

With my 2nd we had a uh oh just once and kinda new that was going to get me pregnant. I dont think i got any syptoms till after 9dpo when i got a bfp.

But my cycle as been so so irregular in the last year but only just started to come down in cycle days due to me shifting a considerable amount of weight 😅

So im one of those people that get pregnant first time after uh ohs 😬 so id me shocked if i wasn't because we just continued to BD after the first uh oh this month 😂

Hi, I am the same, I have been referred to recurrent misscarriages department and have not yet got my appointment through but I'm 39 and oh 40 so we haven't really got time on our hands, my Dr said if I do fall pregnant it's OK however certain tests won't be carried out obviously and won't investigate why previous misscarriages

Glad I’m not the only one! I was referred in May and got an appt in November. It then moved to January, and now back to November! I’ve read that they will still help, and if I do fall pregnant I would be 8 weeks pregnant for the appt, and previous losses were at 10 and 12 wks, so obviously wouldn’t want it to be cancelled!
I hope you aren’t waiting too long for your appointment

Figtree11 · 14/10/2024 13:05

@LLLTB fingers crossed its the same for you this month!

LLLTB · 14/10/2024 22:17

Had so much cramps today, it feels like af type cramps but much earlier than normal. I cant remember feeling anything previous times. I think ive just become hyper aware of everything now. 😅

Hi I am 4dpo (or there about). I’ve had two pregnancies and both have ended in miscarriage. I was referred to the recurring miscarriage unit and have been diagnosed with antiphospholipid Syndrome. It’s bittersweet to know why my mc likely happened but also amazing they have been able to pinpoint the issue.

im 41also have stage 4 endo but I don’t think this has luckily had an impact on my fertility as both pregnancies happened first time.

it’s the first month since my last miscarriage in April that we have tried.
We have a care plan in place if I do become pregnant.

im very very sensitive to hormones and last time was testing positive 6DPO!
the crap side of this was with both mc I was testing positive for 8-10 weeks post miscarriage until I got my period.

I wish everyone all the luck x

LLLTB · 15/10/2024 16:57

Hows everyone today? 5dpo for me cramps stopped, boobs still hurt abit and had alot of white cm 🤷‍♀️

OP posts:
Amityhill · 15/10/2024 18:11

Apart from needing a pee all the time no other possible symptoms.

i have issue with my bladder because of endo so im trying to remind myself of this rather than get excited.

LLLTB · 15/10/2024 18:59

When are you planning on testing? @Amityhill

LLLTB · 15/10/2024 22:31
