Thankyou everyone. We had a miscarriage this time last year too, right before Christmas. This time it’s even worse with all the appointments and uncertainty. It’s just hard. Thanks for the safe space to rant

@Hol1st I'm so sorry 😞 sending so much love ❣️

Hello girls, I wanted to share this for science and for whoever is looking for Mumsnet threads in the future, with the hope that my chart can help :)

I just wanted to share my chart, which is an "ugly" chart with crazy temperatures, you can't even confirm ovulation per "3 consecutive higher temperatures than the previews 6 ones" and all of that considered, we however got pregnant 😊 it's still early days, I'm today just 22 dpo, but until now everything looks to be fine, I got blood drawn and there everything was fine (specially progesterone I was curious about, since my temps were so crazy). I got a clear blue digital +3 weeks today also. I find my line progression also good, I'll also attach pics of HcG line progression and LH line progression post BFP (I did those ones for science 😂 and fun).

I wish everybody who is reading this to relax if you don't have text book temperatures or charts and wish you lots of baby dust and that you get your BFP soon ✨✨✨✨

@pcbrb thank you for sharing this as my app hasn’t confirmed my ovulation yet due to temps so this really has helped!! Hopefully this helps for you too @Kay1578

ive got lower back pain mainly on one side today which is driving me insane - also a few cramps this morning so I have a feeling AF is coming early 🤦‍♀️

BBT ladies what do you think of this comment? Do you usually pin point ovulation after the first positive or the darkest test? If it's true that means I'm actually 5dpo today instead of 4!

The first positive is the 1 that counts. Ovulation occurs in the hours after the first positive. If you wait for the darkest you could miss your chance due to fluctuations in lh levels x

Hi lovely ladies, I just wanted to share that we saw our tiny blueberry today with a heartbeat and I’m officially 7+3. It all started here really so I just wanted to say thank you so much for all the support and I’ll be here to cheer you all on too! ❤️

Wait you've put it on the premom strips!! The numbers are different, so that's actually classed as low on that section

It's on the "others" section. I did another and it came back as 0.41. Think it was just being temperamental lol x

Em3009 · 19/12/2024 05:26

@OneGladTiger aw thats amazing and so lovely you got to see before Christmas 🩷

@Kay1578 hhaa I don’t think I’ve ever seen a reading that high 🤣

@nicolenorris how are you feeling?!

I think we will need a new thread soon - does everyone want to stay on for a new one? 🥰

Dreamt last night that I had started bleeding. I've still been doing daily tests and I am now 16dpo. I have swollen and tender breasts but my stomach discomfort seems to have eased a bit.

I did the referrals the other day and have antenatal appointments booked for mid January.
Do you think my lines are looking about right and progressing? The bottom one hasn't dried out as much as the others yet.

Em3009 · 19/12/2024 10:42

@CraftyBugger line progression looks great!

@nicolenorris im ok, having some symptoms but I know it could also be PMS symptoms so trying to not think too much into it!

Woop quite dark today and got ewcm. Crossing my all. Looks like after breastfeeding my cycles have swapped to 21/23 days from 33 days and my super long cycle with mid bleed, was actually 2 cycles with a light period xx

Same here! I'm super bloated, having a lot of cm and lots of cravings but it's so hard because I'm sure I have all this before my period as well, so not looking into any of it

TRIGGER WARNING MMC

Hi again, I miscarried last night at 8 weeks, after knowing for a week that the baby wasn’t developing (early scan, empty sac). I guess I’d like to join back in TTC soon, not sure how my cycle will line back up with everyone here but I’d like to stick around anyway.
I’m in a lot of pain at the moment, though I’m fairly sure I passed the pregnancy last night. Hoping the pain subsides soon and my cycle returns to normality.

Hey girl, I haven’t posted loads of messages on this thread but was involved earlier in the month and November.

I’m so sorry to hear what you’re going through and for your loss it’s truly heartbreaking 😟.

I went on to get my BFP on 4th December but I am starring down the barrel at what I think is a blighted ovum / early MMC. I had a scan over the weekend due to some one sided pain and spotting, I thought I was 5+1,but was told my gest sac is measuring almost a week behind (my dates were accurate as I had ovu confirmed on a scan this month) I am back for a rescan on Xmas Eve where they should be able to determine the outcome as they presumed I just got my dates wrong and didn’t want to listen initially, but suspect I’ll be dealing with the same grief and pain soon.

Em3009 · 19/12/2024 21:36

@Hol1st i am so sorry for your loss 💔

@KT199 so sorry you are going through this too 💔
