Morning everybody, looking for support/company in my TTC journey!
Bit of back ground info I'm 39 on Saturday so well aware time isn't on my side. I have 3 Children (19,12 and 6) and have had multiple miscarriages between those 3, last year I had 2 mc and a mmc at 12 weeks which resulted in a major hemorrhage and emergency surgery! We have been TTC actively since but feel very lonely in this journey 😢 Hubby is fantastic and very supportive but I feel speaking with people going through the same will help to feel less alone and less guilty that my body is failing me xx

Hi @BabyBorn I'm really sorry to hear your sad news. I can imagine how you must be feeling, I lost my nan to lung cancer almost 10yrs ago very suddenly. I had my viability scan on monday and it went well they see the gestional sac and yolk sac and the start of a fetal pole, we are back on 1st on July when we will hopefully be able to see a heartbeat! The progesterone is working well I think altho it has made early symtoms more heightened!. The Daily injections are OK they don't hurt but my poor stomach looks so bruised 😫. How are you feeling regarding trying are you still going for it? I really want you to have a positive test soon, especially after losing your nan I think it would be wonderful and I'm sure she will be up there making sure it happens!! Xx

Aawwwww that’s amazing news @Fluffy38i hope the progesterone isn’t making you feel too rough. My natural progesterone when pregnant makes me feel bad enough so can’t imagine what you are having to go through!! 🥴
Thanks love. It’s so painful loosing someone you love. I’m going to leave it for now and try at the end of the year! Need to grieve and have a holiday in October etc that I booked yesterday! Look forward to hearing how your next scan goes and hoping you get to hear the heartbeat!! 💗 xx

The nausea is constant all day and bloating, sore boobs too but its all worth it 👌. I'm so happy that you have decided to keep going and I think a break is defo a good idea. Where are you off to? Somewhere hot with lots of cocktails I hope!! Xx

Aawww poor you, nausea is the worse thing! We DTD over the last few days when I was ovulating. Just don’t know what to do, carry on or leave it. Suppose what will be will be. I’ve stopped drinking alcohol and giving myself the best chance now. We are going to Lanzarote which I’ve never visited, so looking forward to it! Look forward to hearing what your next scan brings! Xxx

Why not unofficial keep trying, no OPKs just let your body be your guide, less stress less pressure it clearly worked for us! I think it's the way to go lol. Iv never been there myself, the only foreign holiday iv had was to tenerife 19yrs ago 😆. I'm really nervous for the next scan I want to be excited and with all the sysmtoms I have it should be OK but I guess with past experiences I'm gonna air in the side of caution. What CD are you on? Xx

Hey! I’m not surprised you are living on edge. I’m sure everything will be ok you know. Just try and look after yourself. Face masks, early bed, chill times.
Yeah I’m just going to get lost in life and see what happens! I’m CD 15 today. Started yoga and doing more reading! Are you reading any books at the moment? Xx

Hi @BabyBorn just a quick update, Hubby and I had another scan yesterday and I'm pleased to report all I'd well we see little flump with a fantastically strong heartbeat everything as it should be. There were loads of tears (relief) and we have now graduated from epau!. How are things with you? I hope your doing OK xx

Aawwww @Fluffy38 so so glad to hear that everything is well! Wow. You must be buzzing! How are you feeling?
I’ve started yoga two weeks ago and eating well so fingers crossed it happens for me soon. Not thinking about it anymore and barely know where I am upto in my cycle as not checking much anymore!

Looking forward to seeing your updates with the pregnancy! 😘 xx
