Bloody doctor's receptionist I booked in for my first smear a few weeks ago and today was the earliest they could see me. When I phoned I expressly checked if it would be a problem ttc and having the smear post ovulation, the ditzy mare told me it would be fine.

Luckily I checked with the Nurse who told me that if I were in fact pregnant (highly unlikely ) and I had the smear I would be risking miscarriage!!!! Complete waste of time and an appointment

Unsurprisingly I think I am out this month as zero symptoms really.

Oh the medicals won't agree on anything >:[
I hope you are preg Feisty. Do not rely on symptoms.
On my side, menses arrived which I was looking forward to again because we protected this month too. I hope I get a decent AF so my doctor will allow us to resume TTC.

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Thanks Leylak but I don't think we will get lucky. I honestly think we are going to need some medical intervention - I am okay with that but just a bit peeved with how long it is going to take.
The doctor doesn't want to see me until 7 months after our loss and I don't hold much hope in her referring me to a fertility specialist for a lot longer after that.

Fingers crossed for the green light Leylak

Well even if I don't fall pregnant this month (despite my best intentions there is a glimmer of hope) I think that the aspirin has done something. I have had a sore lower back for the last few days which I don't generally get until the day of the So I think that perhaps because my lining is thicker it is putting more pressure then usual on my lower back????

Mummycat how is your pregnancy progressing?

Rachael how you doing hun?

Oooo.. fxed for you! Lower back ache was my first sign!

 

[MummyCat]

oooh...good news re the aspirin and back pain!!

How long are you going to hold out before testing hun??

My pregnancy so far has been complication free... bar a very painful back for 7 days. A week ago I couldn't bend down!

Otherwise so far so good! Loads of CM, sore, stingy, achey boobies, cramps, nausea, gas @ both ends all the normal what to expect stuff! Just waiting to get my letter now with scan date, expecting it in about a week with scan date being around Easter.

 

[Rachael1981]

I'm doing ok, not sure whether I ov'd on Sunday now or not after a load of EWCM yesterday

No symptoms and I'm not very hopeful either

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Rachael you are still early days even if you did ovulate Sunday, from what I have read the earliest implantation can occur is 6DPO

I am very annoyed with myself right now. Despite my best intentions that tiny glimmer of hope has grown especially as I have woken with a sore throat and headache and a high temperature, also had a really thick bit of CM yesterday. This all happened the month I fell pregnant at 11DPO and I am now 10DPO It is painful enough entertaining the when I have steeled myself for her but when I have this much hope then I know it is going to be so painful when she does arrive on Thursday

I am so confused I 'think' that my (oYo) are aching a bit but I am not too sure if it is all imagined

If by some miracle she stays away I will be testing in one week today as I refuse to test on a work day as it is either too depressing or too exciting

Cajun thanks for your vote of confidence, just scared my instincts are wrong AGAIN my midwife told me to listen to my body during ttc but I don't know what is 'real' any-more or what is just normal pre-period symptoms

Mummycat I am sorry to hear about your back glad it is better now though! Are you paying for a private scan or are you managing to get one NHS?

 

[pink80]

Feisty - that all sounds good to me Hun - although I can understand what you mean about not wanting to get your hopes up. When is AF due...?

 

[Adoraza]

Count me in! I'm new here and would love to have TTC buddies! I'm married and we are trying for #1. I'm on Day 3 of my cycle right now. I use OPK's and take pre-natal vitamins and folic acid regularly. This month, I am planning to try Fertility blend and Pre-seed. Hoping March will finally be the month!

Baby dust to us all!

Have fun https://www.*****************/blinkies/makingababy.gif !!!

 

[Feisty Fidget]

Welcome Adoraza :wave:

Pink I am due on Wednesday or possibly Thursday (my LP is always either 13 or 14 days). I go from being completely convinced I am but scared I am not to convinced it is all in my head and I am no where near pregnant

 

[Rachael1981]

:wave: Adoraza

I'm now wondering if I did Ov last Sunday, had several days of EWCM this week

Going to write this cycle off I think

 

[cajunbabe]

Rachael, do you normally get a lot of EWCM? I do. Sometimes it seems like it is there all the time.

 

[Rachael1981]

No I don't cajun, i get 2 or 3 days, not this many!

 

[cajunbabe]

No I don't cajun, i get 2 or 3 days, not this many!

Hmm.. maybe you are super-duper fertile this month. Think positive, glass is half-full. Is DH around for some ?

 

[Rachael1981]

He is, going to jump on him later

 

[MummyCat]

Hi Adoraza hope your TTC journey is a good one!

Right.... Feisty and Rachael... I don't want to get your hopes up... but OMG.. your symptoms sound really promising!

Rachael.. I've been preggers 4 times now.. and increased CM is DEF one of my symptoms.
Feisty... if you are not pregnant this cycle... your body is just damn cruel ... those symptoms sound BANG on!!

I will very quietly be sitting here waiting with my pom poms to cheer when the good news comes in... I just seriously think those are all good signs!!!

 

[Rachael1981]

We'll see cath. The cm is the only symptom I have lol

 

[MummyCat]

Ok hun... *sits patiently*

Feisty, I forgot to answer you question... I'm not going privately for a scan, i'm just hanging in there and waiting for 12 weeks. Last time we paid for a private scan and baby was fine at 8 weeks, only to lose the baby a week or two later... so I figured... it's not going to make me feel much better if I have an early scan, cos I'll still stress that the same will happen again!
