Starting a new thread because we got to 999 replies!

@SureLooknope 🤔i’m really emotional and boobs are very sore though so I hope if i’m out it’s soon;(

@rainycoldboo sorry I can see now that that's not a FRER! But I can still definitely see the line.
I'm only LH testing still. I think I'm gonna ovulate in the next day or so.

@ForGiddyDreamer how many DPO are you now? Did you have sex or exercise or anything like that today? There's so much going on down there at the moment.

@amey44 hopefully you'll know soon one way or another.

@SureLook nothing more than walking the dog. I'm 12/13 DPO today. My period is due tomorrow or Wednesday. When I miscarried in February it started with light pink spotting. It's too late for implantation bleeding if I got first faint positive on Friday. Will see if my GP will do an hcg draw. I can't face that EPU again. I just can't handle this happening again. It's so unfair.

@ForGiddyDreamer i had spotting pretty much the whole first trimester with my first. It was super stressful but it all worked out absolutely fine, hoping the same for you xx

@ForGiddyDreamer I think going to your GP for bloods is your best bet. I can't remember where in Ireland you are but there's clinics in Dublin that can have the results back in a couple of hours.
I'm sorry this is happening. It's just a wait and see at the moment. I know it's so shit. But try and stay positive x

Hi all,

Hope you don't mind me joining.
So nice to see all the BFP's
@ForGiddyDreamerhope you have a successful pregnancy and all goes ok 🤞🏻

I had a misscarriage at 10/11 weeks in June. First cycle trying since. I'm 11DPO but not hopeful as DH wasnt well so couldn't DTD much.
I've been testing last couple of days but all bfn.

I'm 41 so hoping my age doesn't go against me.

Any older ladies like me trying?

@HayleyD84good morning lovely and welcome! Really so sorry for your loss, I hope you're healing as best as you can. You're in good company here with us lot.
I'm not quite your age but I am 38 so at the more difficult end of trying to concieve shall we say lol. Did it take you long for fall with your loss? Xx

@ForGiddyDreamerhow are things today? This could absolutely be nothing but with your history I know how you will be feeling. I would definitely call epu and get seen today. You will drive yourself crazy. Sending so much love x

Hi @HayleyD84- I’m 41 too. I think there’s a few of us roundabout that. I’m just waiting for my period to come so I can start again, I was ill this month and there’s absolutely no chance we could have caught. Fingers crossed you did!

@ForGiddyDreamer when I was pregnant with the twins I had insane cramping before I even missed my period which went on for weeks, also thought I was losing them. Often had a tiny bit of spotting too. Always worth getting it checked for your peace of mind but I wouldn’t say those symptoms are definitive either way. Line progression on your tests looks great 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

12 DPO for me and line is progressing nicely.

Does anyone know when would count as my missed period? Normally have a 27-29 day cycle and normally ovulate on day 13/14 and period comes around 13-14DPO. But I ovulated on CD12 and even my apps are confused about when my period is due!

Cycle Day 28 is 9th Aug
14DPO is 7th Aug

@DoubleDandelionyay for a lovely line - congrats! Apparently the luteal phase stays the same so I’d go off that - have you got an app that tells you your average. Eg my luteal phase is 13 days on average so can work out my missed period from that

Thank you @rainycoldboo, glad you’ve found your way back to MN!

Ok I’m going to go with my period being due on Thurs then as luteal phase normally 13-14 days. Thank you for the advice!

We must have a similar due date - I’ve just found out (yesterday) that I have a little bean (hoping for a sticky one!!) - I’m 10dpo which puts my due date as 17/18th April! How about you?

Thanks girls. My GP is on holiday but the surgery will do my bloods today at 2.45pm. Doctor will see me next week. The cramping has now eased. My nearest is Limerick @SureLook nothing but bad memories. I sat there every second day for two weeks in Feb while all these happy women came in and out with their babies and their growing bumps.

Hi @rainycoldboo yes similar! If I go off period it’s 19th April but going off ovulation it’s 16th April as I’m 12DPO today. This was my line this morning, will probs only test up to missed period as I know after that it will just feed my anxiety.

Ah congrats @DoubleDandelionline looks lovely! I think I’ll do the same. Period due Saturday - were actually away with parents in law this weekend which is a bit awkward as im not sure what to say/do about not having a glass of wine with dinner etc

Still no sign of AF yet now CD36😣I genuinely feel so emotional/hormonal i’ve had to cancel plans because of how awful I feel. I don’t know if it’s even worth going and getting another test because i’ve obviously already tested a few days ago.

Just typical that I've had a missed call from the fertility clinic that my GP referred me on to. They said they're busy and will have to call me back.

@amey44 I am sorry you are feeling so low. I am sending you a big hug ❤I think if you feel you need the time to be alone and gather yourself, then take it xx

@ChaE05 with my first son I caught literally first month trying.
With my second son it took 2 years!
With the MC we wasnt trying was a nice surprise.

My husband said that he doesn't want to try for long like we did with our second son, my DH is 47 so he said if we haven't caught by 12 months he doesn't want to try anymore.

@amey44sorry you're feeling low sending hugs x

Sending lots of hugs to you @amey44

Congrats on the line progressions girls! Those BFP are looking great.

My update: did a blood draw and I am back on Thursday for another. A doctor saw me and put me on aspirin and progesterone. We'll know when the second draw comes back on Friday what's going on.

Good to see everyone's BFPs progressing nicely. Fingers crossed for sticky beans all round!

Got everything crossed for you @ForGiddyDreamer. Do you feel reassured to be on the progesterone aspirin?

@DoubleDandelion I think it just helps to feel I have did something. Doctor says we'll not really know what's happening until Friday. Says I am not to check my cervix or look for progression in my tests anymore - says I will drive myself mad. Don't want to put scud on myself but I haven't had much more light pink today and the cramps feel more like a sideways pull than a downward pull (which is what AF feels like for me). She said the positive to take away is that I am getting pregnant. It's just difficult that it's the third time in 7 months.
