Welcome to a wishful December 🎄🤍💞

@LuckyDuck93Thank you. It reassures me that your felt the same and that there is a change I can get a happy outcome. I’ve brightened up a little bit this afternoon, just riding the anxiety waves out💛

@Iris2024Oh amazing 💐🤞🏼✨

Great news @Iris2024 keeping everything crossed for you!

Ohhhh quite a few congratulations i see 😍😍😍

@Esssacongratulations 🥰🥰
@LuckyDuck93amazing news on your early scan. So so pleased for you!

@Iris2024yay!! Congrats! Please remind me of your history again? You had an early loss last year didnt you? Xx

Congratulations @Iris2024- everything crossed for you ✨ xx

Sorry to change the tone when there's happy news but I've started bleeding this afternoon. Been wiping pink for a few days but now it's bright red. Building myself up to tell DH and phone EPU 🥺

@LuckyDuck93so happy that your 8 week scan was good news.

@Iris2024and @Esssatentative congratulations!! I’ve got everything crossed for you both.

so many positives on this thread at the moment. It definitely brings hope.

@ttcnumerodosI’m sorry you’ve started bleeding. Have you any pain? I hope EPAU are helpful. Unfortunately my local EPAU weren’t brilliant when I called with bleeding however they have looked after me well since. I hope they can see you asap.

I’ve had bloods every 48 hours since EPAU saw me last week as I still had pain. Finally been told I don’t have to go back for more and just need to take a pregnancy test next week which will hopefully be negative. No idea where I am in my cycle at the moment due to miscarriage so will just see how we go and start trying again next cycle. I’m not sure how many more cycles we can keep going. Unfortunately age isn’t on my side.

I'm sorry you've had a rough time @Fullofconfusion. Sending big 🫂 I am in the same boat, 41 and before I caught this time I was beginning to think we might draw a line under it. No pain at the moment, mild cramping. I phoned EPAU there and I've just to monitor bleeding and call if it gets worse. They might be in touch to start me on progesterone tomorrow, then early scan Wednesday morning. Just a waiting game for now x

Thank you ladies, I’m really trying to protect myself but right now I’m pregnant.

@ChaE05 History is we have a 7DD and caught first cycle. We started in April, caught in August and a chemical, cycles were all out of whack until before Christmas I would say. Hycosy in October. All tests been fine and DP sperm. Just need that one good egg and hope this is it 😩❤️❤️

@Fullofconfusion im so sorry for all your going through. The heartbreak is horrific!

@ttcnumerodos I hope they do give you the meds tomorrow and give you the best chance. I’m 42 so know how it feels. I have a fertility appointment next Wednesday and if I’m still pregnant I’ll be asking for it too! Sending love ❤️

Congratulations to you all! @Esssa @Iris2024 @LuckyDuck93 Such lovely news to see 🥰

Oh @Iris2024 I welled up reading your update. I still check back to see how you are all getting on every now and then, you were all such a support to me. I'm so pleased for you. Fingers and toes and everything else crossable for a sticky bean xx🤞❤️

@ttcnumerodos keeping everything crossed for you 🫶🏼 hopefully you can get the progesterone asap

@Fullofconfusion so sorry, hopefully you’ll get some clarity on your cycle soon so at least you know where you’re at 🫶🏼

Awwww it’s been a rollercoaster 🎢 🙈 I’m hoping this is it now and a sticky bean. The tests today at 10DPO were strong for how early I am. I’m so scared to do more tests now though. How’re you doing darling?

@Iris2024 Those are lovely lines for 10dpo 🤞🤞 praying this is your sticky bean!!

I'm doing well. I'll be 32 weeks on Friday. Starting to feel a little more real now but I've not relaxed at all since my BFP. With previous losses, everything just feels precarious. Looking forward to stopping work soon for mat leave. XX

Oh @Iris2024 this is wonderful news, congratulations! I am the same age as you and you have filled me with hope, here’s hoping everything continues to progress well

Aww congrats to all the BFP’s in this thread. Came to post when I saw @Iris2024 you’ve gotten your positive. I’ve been keeping myself off socials a lot more but did want to send my congratulations over

Congratulations to all those getting positives! It's great news!

My DH came back from his trip hopefully just in time to DTD. I wasn't tracking but I could be between 7-9 DPO. I've had a little bit of this sore throat that's doing the rounds but driving to work today, all of a sudden I became so nauseous (and still am 30 mins later). It's prolly the cold and overthinking but we can't help but symptom spot!

I was going to hold off until Friday as that'll be 9-12 DPO but now I'm not so sure!

@ThisHangryTiger Fingers crossed for you.

Here I got a negative test this morning. 😒. I am less sad than last time. Here we go again for another cycle of IUI.

Well that was hellish. Just been for the scan and no sign of pregnancy at all. The worst scenario I could have had - the same as my private scan last year. After the scan they did a urine sample to confirm and nothing. My last positive test was Thursday so feeling very stupid, confused and heartbroken 😞 xx

@ttcnumerodosThere really are no words, I’m so so sorry. I thought of you today when I woke up as knew your scan was today. Sending you so much love and strength ❤️‍🩹

Is it likely to have been a chemical or do you not have any answers? X

Thanks love. Yeah I think a chemical. Not what I was expecting with the symptoms I've had but should have been more prepared I guess. I have an appointment with fertility consultant soon so will just take a bit of time to regroup and decide what we do going forward.

How are you doing @Blondepeach? xx

@ttcnumerodos I am so so sorry. How awful for you.

I hope that the appointment with the fertility doctor can bring you some answers and spoil yourself as much as you need until then

@ttcnumerodoshonestly, chemicals are just evil 😔I hope whoever did your scan was able to be empathetic and really kind to you. My first chemical, the sonographer was so cold and I was genuinely shocked how unkind she was.

Im doing ok thank you, I am still getting on and off aches/twinges on the side my ectopic was which is very worrying for me. I guess my only answer of where this goes will be my scan in the morning

Unfortunately not much empathy @BlondepeachShe was pretty cold and it felt really rushed - just like 'no visible pregnancy, off you pop'. I think that's added to the confusion. The midwife who did my test after was very kind.

Keeping everything crossed for you tomorrow lovely ✨ xx

@ttcnumerodos I'm so sorry to read that x
