A group for TTC#1 and had more than one loss?

[lexi374]

Thanks Patiently, hope you're doing ok? Charting didn't work because I am quite a light sleeper and have to get up to use the bathroom a couple of hours before I get up every day and the guidelines are that you need 4 hours undisturbed sleep, also I can't wake up the same time every day because I work shifts, so the time I take the temp can vary between quite a few hours x

Nah you dont need 4 hrs solid sleep! I never get that!! Lol! Im a rubbish sleeper too always up for a wee or shouting at dh for waking me up with his snoring! My alarm goes off about 6.30 but i nearly always woke up before so if i woke from 5 am onwards i would temp then even if id only been asleep a couple of hours. If it was earlier than that id go back to sleep and temp later. I could still always see a definate pattern on my chart. I can see that working shifts would be a challenge though. The earlier you temp the lower your temp.

Soop im not convinced you ovd cd10, keep going hun! x

Lady hi hun we will probably just go to prezzos. I bet you are getting excited now, how long have you got left at work? x

Misswish that absolutely sucks about your sil, life is so not fair!
My doc said to start prog at 7dpo, but most start at 3dpo. Though she said not to start straight after ov as could cause an ectopic. I thought 7dpo was too late so i started at 5dpo this cycle.

Thanks for the anniversary wishes ladies dh surprised me with 24 red roses! x

 

[Emmediva]

Sooper, I'm with Lexi, try to get another day of in

Lexi congrats on your anniversary!! aww your OH sounds sweet, 24 roses

:wave: hi everyone, AFM, FF has not confirmed OV I am frustrated with temping, like Sooper I am confused my cp is high and I think it's soft can that happen after OV? Nipples feel tingly and soreish Lord this ttc is hard work

 

[Neversaynever]

SO much going on I can't keep up

MissWish...sorry you find yourself here but welcome and I can see you already have slotted in perfectly to this lovely group of ladies

Lexi...belated happy anniversary and flowers too

[patiently]

Congrats NSN!!! im so happy for you. i did sneak over to your journal and you and your HUSBAND look amazing, you have such a glow and i absolutely adore your rings. Congrats again. Your baby bump is also very very cute.

Emme im sorry ff hasnt marked o day but looking at your chart im also confused. In saying that my bfp month ff didnt even detect ovulation so you never know. GL anyway hun i hope that all works out this month!

Lexi how are you doing? hope all is well. xxxx

Thurl i agree with lexi i never get hours of solid sleep but charting has worked for me. I'd say maybe give it a go and see.

Misswish im so sorry about your SIL life is so unfair sometimes! I really struggle with situations like that but my OH keeps telling me not to concentrate on what others have but to think about what we WILL have one day. Which is true but extremely hard! I hope that soon you will get your bfp and im sure you will make a fantastic mum as you will appreciate and cherish your LO more than anything. Some people dont know just how blessed they are.

Beach has AF come yet?

AFM really feeling down these days, the thought of work tomorrow is just daunting and my friend has just told me shes expecting. I had a rough friday and saturday evening, im just hoping that after accupunture this week i will feel better. Hoe everyone has a lovely bank holiday. i wish i had it off! Frikkin work!!!

 

[Neversaynever]

Aw patiently thank you we had the perfect day for us. I'm sorry you have to work tomorrow and that you had a rough couple of days. Please look after yourself chick

XxX

 

[Misswish]

Hey Lexi glad you had a good day for your anniversary the roses sound lovely! Yeah it was upsetting about my SIL but like Patiently said its best not to focus on what others have. Yeah it's hard not to but it just gets you more down if you do. I definately will appreciate my child sooo much when I have them. Will b amazing. Thanks for your kind words. I think we all will with the journeys we have been through.
Oh patiently that sucks your not feeling that great. I hope your day gets better. This ttc journey is a lot harder then expected. I hope you get your bfp soon take care. Hope the accupunture helps.
My hubby is home now so I'm feeling happier. I've got an accupunture appt today so that should relax me
Hey never say never I noticed your due date is the day after my bday. That's cool

 

[BeachChica]

Hi ladies :wave:

Sorry I have been MIA, DH and I usually spend the weekend out on our boat and I have limited Internet access. It's hard to keep up with the threads on my phone.

Sooper- sorry your DH was feeling the pressure. My husband and I felt the same way in the beginning. It felt like we were always on a schedule to have sex. It really didn't make it fun. We are still on a schedule but we do try to have fun with it still. Now DH knows the drill so I tell him each month when he needs to be "ready for action" :LOL:

NSN- congrats on getting married and V day!!!!

Girls- regarding the temping, I know FF like 4 hours of sleep but as long as you are consistent in what you do, you will see a pattern. Good luck!!

AFM- no sign of the witch yet. She's really pissing me off this month. I decided to take a HPT test this morning because I'm so late and it was BFN. It's just my body being difficult. Hopefully she'll come soon. I guess at this rate, even if I don't get prego this month, I won't need to worry about getting my period on my trip.

 

[lexi374]

Hello ladies i hope you are ok?

Selfish post sorry....

I am convinced its all gone wrong again....

Boobs no longer tender nor am i constipated. Think im 6+2, this is the magic week for us that it all stops. Just havent been able to shake this feeling since yesterday, its not me being negative i just really feel its over again.

Scan a week today, how will i get through the next 7days!

 

[wookie130]

Lexi...hang in there. Symptoms definitely can come and go. I truly hope this is your rainbow.

Patiently...good luck at work. It's tough to get back into the swing of things after this stuff, I know.

AFM, BFN @ 13 dpo, so I'm out. And no, I'm OUT, so please don't mention I'm out only when the witch arrives! LOL! AF will arrive between Thursday and Saturday.

 

[BeachChica]

Lexi - PMA!!! PMA!!!! Symptoms come and go. I was a stressed out mess before every one of my scans before due to symptoms coming and going but then everything would be OK. Could you tell your doctor that you are having some cramping (small white lie) and lack of symptoms and see if they will get you in for a scan this week? I would think with your losses at this stage they probably should have scanned you anyways just to see how things are looking.

Wookie - I am so sorry I still have everything crossed for you though. Another girl in my other thread was getting BFN and throught she was out but just got a BFP!!!!

AFM - no witch yet but I did wake up to some cramping this morning so I am really hoping she is on her way. The first month I decide to go back to TTC and my body has to be difficult!!! Sheezzzz!!!!!

 

[lexi374]

I know, they have been coming and going during the course of the days but since yest they have upped and gone, maybe i will feel different tom.... i hope so. But sometimes you just know.....

Im thinking about trying the doc to see if they will get me in at my local epau rather than waiting til next mon and having to drive 70 miles only to be told bad news.

I hope that witch shows soon for you

Wookie sorry about the bfn.

 

[Sooperhans]

Hey everyone, woo what a busy w/e! Emme - any more temping luck? FF is not my friend this month, the crosshairs and reappear on each reading! I'm going to sit tight, try and keep the bd'ing up and do a test on cd29, when AF would be due if my cycle was "normal", which hopefully it is this month. I've started the progesterone and been getting banging headaches ever since, booooo!

Beach - being on a boat sounds idyllic! It must be lovely to kick back and have mini holidays. That's the life! I hope AF is very soon around the corner for you, come on! When is it Euro time for you?*

Wookie, I'm sorry you are out and hope AF comes and goes v quickly so you can start your next round of bd'ing...

Oh Lexi, my heart has sunk for you, it's truly awful to have that sense of foreboding and I hope that you can have tests and scans to prove otherwise...def ask for a local epu referral, on your history you shouldn't have any trouble with getting one. I hope you get seen really quickly and that they can put your mind at rest. Everything crossed for you xxxx

Never, hope you are enjoying married life and Lady, hope you are getting some sleep hun xxx

 

[Sooperhans]

Oh and Patiently, as well as everyone else having accupuncture, hope the sessions go well xx

 

[thurl30]

Hi Nicki, I’m pleased to hear I’m not the only one who found charting difficult, I have got a charting course in my email inbox from FF, I might give that a go xx

Soop - I feel permanently dehydrated at the moment until I know whats going on with my ovulation, I’m taking OPK’s every day and trying no to drink too much so I don’t dilute and can hold the 4 hours that I need to, I still haven’t got a positive opk yet, I’m on CD15 today, but knowing my cycles it could be a long wait! You made me laugh about the early morning bd’ing, I’m with you on that one where is the time?! xx

Misswish - sorry to hear about your experience with your SIL, some people make it all seem so easy, and don’t realise just how lucky they are, I have had a couple of friends announce their pregnancy in the last few weeks, it can be really difficult so I think I know how you feel xx

Hi Ladyfog, I am keeping up with SMEP so far this month, it’s quite hard work though BD’ing every other day, I haven’t yet had a positive OPK so I just gotta keep going! Congrats on your pregnancy, it’s lovely to see people like yourself, it gives me hope xx

Lexi - I’m sorry to hear about how you are feeling at the moment, I really hope everything is ok, I agree with the others, I would try to get in to the epu, I’m sure they would see you, keep your chin up and think positive xx

Never – massive congrats to you and your husby xx

Patiently – hope you are doing ok, I think I will give charting a go again next cycle just to see if I can make any sense of it xx

Hi to everyone else, sending lots of luck and xx

 

[Sooperhans]

Good luck Thurl with the opks and hope you get enough liquid to drink that you don't get ill or anything! Good luck if you do temp next month, I hope I can be a chatting success, get a bfp and share secrets! Better still, I hope your smep approach means you get a bfp too and you don't have to chart! Fx'd xxx

 

[patiently]

Lexi hun symptoms come and go. Try to relax in know it's hard. I hope you get to have a scan for reassurance. Remember nsn symptoms came and went, hang on in there hun. I hope your symptoms come full force for reassurance for u hun...but still bearable for u to function normally. Sending you lots of sticky positive symptom filled vibes your way hun x

Beach hope the cramping is due to arriving AF x

Wookie sorry about your bfn. I hope your bfp is just around the corner.x

Misswish hope your Acupuncture went well and your feeling relaxed with your OH. X

Afm was sent home from work today. The tears just didn't stop falling. As soon as I saw my friend who is expecting I just broke down. I will try to get sn appointment tomorrow with my gp I think I need counselling. On top of that I came home from work and me and my OH had I just missed feeling normal and being close to him. It was so nice not thinking about everything. Until we finished. The condom broke apart. I had to "find" the rest. Sorry tmi. Now I'm worrying so much as I had the metho shot and I'm taking tcm which has vitex in it. I haven't even had a normal cycle yet and I don't want to take the morning after pill as it will mess me up even more. Ontop of that I've been charting just to see what my first cycle will be like and it says I o'd Friday but I really doubt it. I'm so scared. Sorry for the rant. Really feeling crap. Nothing goes right...

 

[patiently]

Sooperhans I don't know what's going on with ff thus month hun. I hope cd gives you a bfp surprise! X

Thurl good luck charting hun. Hope you get your bfp real soon

 

[Nicki123]

Hi ladies. Lexi sending you massive positive vibes. I know how you feel, praying for a bout of nausea or something. But so many of my friends had successful pregnancies with no symptoms and def not early on... I think you should try and get an early scan to put your mind at rest though.

Wookie and Beach, so sorry if you're out but here's to next month, Fx

Patiently, you poor love you really deserve a break. Will visit your journal later but until then

NSN CONGRATULATIONS! I checked out your wdg pics, you looked so happy, so pleased for you.

Thurl, sooper, Emma and misswish, good luck with the temping, let me know how it goes. 4 ish weeks til I start ttc again, think I'm going to try opks and SPEM, to start with anyway.

To anyone I've missed, hope you're all well x

 

[thurl30]

Thanks Soop – fingers crossed for both of us xx

Patiently I feel so sad for you, it’s still such early days, are you able to take some time off work? I have a colleague who is expecting, she is 3 weeks ahead of where I was with my first pregnancy last year, I still struggle with seeing her every day. I reckon some couneslling would help you, you really have been through a rough time. In terms of the BD’ing, I would just leave it, what will be will be, I’m really hoping things get better soon for you xx

Nicki we will have to be SMEP buddies, have you tried this plan before? I am finding it alot of effort but I do feel like I have a better chance because I know exactly where I am, I'm not feeling confident this cycle though, especially as I have so much weight to lose xx

 

[Ladyfog]

Hi everyone

Lexi, please try to relax and hope for the best, I think when you have been through losses you expect the worst to protect yourself from bad news even before it actually happens - I was so convinced it was all over at 7 weeks, I really was and it all turned out to be OK. If you have an early scan now it may cause more concern as there may not be a heartbeat and then you still won't know whether everything is OK, even if it is. If you can wait a week then you will hopefully find out everything is OK after all and if it's not, they'll be no doubt

Patiently, hope your day at work's been OK - horrible to have to work on a BH

Beach - weekend on the boat sounds lovely, and hope that lazy old witch turns up soon!

Wookie - boo for the BFN. Hopefully AF won't keep you waiting and wondering for too much longer. FX'd you get a nice surprise after all

Lots of to anyone that needs it.

NSN - hope you're enjoying your first weekend as a Mrs

AFM, had a good weekend, went to mum and dad's today and went through a bag of my old baby clothes that they've had up in the loft for the last 30 years! I've got some lovely matinee coats and booties knitted by my nana and also some amazing dungarees that are going to look sooo cute! Bless them, they'd put them up there as they thought they may have another baby and then just forgot about them until Dad was up in the loft a few months ago - I bet they never imagines they'd be being worn by their grand-daughter!!
