Hi, I’m currently TTC after an ectopic treated by MTX back in Jan and I’d love to meet people who are also TTC. I’m currently CD 11 and I’m already dreading the 2 week wait 🙈 also v nervous it’s going to be another ectopic but keeping all fingers and toes crossed. Sending baby dust to everyone ✨

@Loz93 Sorry posted before finished writing 🙈
5000 Oh my goodness that very high, Glad the treatment worked first time as well 🙏🏽
I wasn't given the option for that I was taken straight away for the surgery which at the time I didn't want as I was very scared.
I am glad they did do the surgery in the end though as they did say they cut a lot of scar tissue which may have cause a blockage but we will never know really why it happens 🤔😬
Hopefully you don't have any blockages and this time it will be successful 🙏🏽

So sorry to hear you had emergency surgery too, it's so scary isn't it? Unfortunately for me my tube had already ruptured at 5+5 so I'm also a tube down. Hopefully we have success going forward 😊

@LavenderHaze04 Hey, I’m feeling good! Trying to keep positive! How are you? Have you ovulated this cycle now? ☺️ x

Happy to hear you're doing well! According to OPKs I should be ovulating today (a day earlier than expected) but should be fine. It's going to be a long tww! Having said that we have a busy couple of weeks ahead so lots of distractions to look forward to 😅

Loz93 · 02/10/2025 22:33

@LavenderHaze04 thank you, and you! Distractions are always good lol it’s my partners mums 70th birthday this weekend so have a lot of celebrations going on and work is so busy it’s keeping me sane and hopefully will stop me from testing too early 😆 have you got anything exciting planned?

Ahh that's lovely! (Unless you don't love work in which case I'm sorry 😂😭). The birthday do sounds like lots of fun 😊 We have a couple of days away with mine/DHs families, plus a theatre show and a baby shower (the irony!) to look forward to so plenty to stay busy with, plus the usual work for us both. Going to try and avoid testing early but we'll see how long I can hold out for 🙈

Lillybobs86 · 06/10/2025 17:41

Thank you both 🙏🏽 I read that the risk of ectopic pregnancy are higher with age 🙈 I was 36 and now it does terrify me. Did age impact anyone else?! Yes I'm feeling ok - 6DPO today! The wait is awful isn't it 🙈😅

The wait really is the worst 😭 I'm 4dpo today, but I've had a couple symptoms today that I had the last time round at the same time so I'll stay cautiously optimistic! (Tmi but snotty yellow CM and some dull cramping)...

I had my ectopic earlier this year aged 29, but they did say after surgery that they noticed some endometriosis which I guess is what caused it 😅

SallySummerPop · 07/10/2025 11:29

@LavenderHaze04 Thanks for sharing your symptoms! Never TMI for me, who is a first time tryer. Only two DPO and so the wait begins....

SallySummerPop · 07/10/2025 14:12

Sorry if I misunderstood your message and that your symptoms were concerned about your symptoms! ❤️

LavenderHaze04 · 07/10/2025 14:30

@SallySummerPopno problem! Happy to help ☺️ it's so tricky isn't it because you know everyone is different but it does help hearing everyone's experiences 🙈 last time I had noticeable snotty-yellow CM at 4dpo, then horrible cramps from 5dpo onwards, tested positive at 9dpo. This time round I have had similar at 5dpo, although also some horrible indigestion/constipation which might explain the pain and not be pregnancy related at all, just a waiting game now 😅

Ahh no you didn't misunderstand at all! Hope you are doing well too x

Lillybobs86 · 08/10/2025 13:31

@LavenderHaze04 Oh ok :(
My GP told me if I had lost the tube the chances of pregnancy are still really high and the other tube helps the other side :))
So hopefully you'll be fine :))

Has anyone tested yet ?! 🤣🤣🙈
I'm so bad and always have the urge to always test so early 🙈

Yes I've read that too! How clever 😄

I think I'm a bit behind you (6dpo) so haven't tested yet! Had my last bfp at 9dpo so I'll try and hold out till at least then.. 😅

summertime94 · 09/10/2025 02:02

@Loz93 how's it going, have you started testing?

summertime94 · 09/10/2025 02:04

@Lillybobs86i think we're around the same, im 10dpo today. Haven't tested yet will try to hold out until Monday / Tuesday depending if AF comes first!

How is everyone - Has anyone tested yet? Xx 🍀 ✨

Lillybobs86 · 10/10/2025 10:16

Sorry I missed spelt and only way was to delete and rewrite 🙈

Wanted to say @summertime94 I think your one day ahead of me :)))

summertime94 · 10/10/2025 15:01

@Lillybobs86so I had some light spotting today and caved and tested. Was negative and I think AF will probably arrive in the next few days as I've had spotting for around 3 days for the last 2 cycles (although this spotting has been lighter)

Loz93 · 10/10/2025 21:41

Hey everyone! Sorry for being MIA busy week at work which I’ve been glad for to stop me from thinking about testing 😂 I haven’t tested yet but I think I will Sunday! That’s 3/4 days before AF is due. How’s everyone feeling? I have 0 symptoms at the moment so not feeling positive about this cycle

11 DPO today.
I'm feeling very scared at the moment, Had a couple very faint line positives yesterday - This morning a positive on a Clearblue digital.
So scared right now, Not only did it take a while to get to this point to actually see 2 lines - But now have to get over the terrifying thought of is it an Ectopic 🙏🏽
Really praying it sticks and is in the right place healthy 🙏🏽
It's going to be a long weekend though till I can let EPU know!

Moosey898 · 11/10/2025 08:20

@Lillybobs86 tentative congratulations. Sorry, I think I missed your history, are you worried because you've had an ectopic previously?

Lillybobs86 · 11/10/2025 08:34

@Moosey898 - Yes previous ectopic a couple years ago, Saved and repaired my tube then successful pregnancy a few months after from the other side :)

Now desperately trying for last baby so my other child will have a sibling.

The anxiety after an Ectopic is awful 😢 😩

Fingers crossed everything works out well for you - it's a good sign you had a successful pregnancy since your ectopic. Will EPU do a scan at 6 weeks to check it's in the right place?

Loz93 · 11/10/2025 11:40

@Lillybobs86 tentative congrats from me too! My MIL is having her house blessed today so I will say a prayer for you 🙏🏼 how are you feeling? Do you have any symptoms at the moment?

OP posts:
Lillybobs86 · 11/10/2025 12:04

@Moosey898 thank you, Yes they do bloods and scan early to check.

@Loz93 thank you so much that's so kind of you 🙏🏽
Yes a few symptoms 9DPO and 10DPO very bad indigestion and wind pains 🙈
Which I never get so I did wonder somethings going on which made me test.

Hopefully someone else can test today and we can go through it together 😅

Tentative congratulations @Lillybobs86, I can imagine it's so nerve-wracking after previous ectopic but sending you very best wishes that it all goes wonderfully and smoothly 💕 may I ask, do you get in touch with the EPU directly or go through GP?

I have also had indigestion/cramps over this week, so nervous to test! I might do one tonight..
