murraycod - oooh how stressful! I really hope the spotting goes away and you go on to get your BFP. Hang in there, and don't ever feel like you are letting anyone down ok, it's not your fault if this isn't your month (I'm still hoping it is)
ric - I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Welcome (sadly) to this thread. You'll find lots of great support here.
starangel - I'm anxiously awaiting your blood test results
Josh's mom & Maddison - Good luck with your scans!!
snugglybean - don't feel bad, we all have those thoughts from time to time. One of my friends who is pregnant now I found out had a m/c back in the spring though I didn't know about it then. I had a hard time feeling bad for her since she is now happily pregnant again. So mean of me!! When I really think about it of course I feel bad she had to go through that but now that she is pregnant it just makes me jealous instead.
elise - here's hoping AF is missing for a reason. It is still early yet so try not to stress out too much. Wait a few days and hopefully you'll get a + test.
craftymummy - It's hard, and 26 days isn't that long ago. You're doing great. My M/C was almost 2 months ago now and I still have bouts of crying (though thankfully much less frequently now), usually when someone is gushing on and on about their pregnancy.
Sending good thoughts to everyone I haven't mentioned!
AFM - trying to figure out a BD schedule. I usually O around day 12 but last month it was day 9 so I guess we have to start .....tonight (day 7)and keep going until after day 12. Whew that's a lot of BD! I'm really not good at waiting though so I have to make the most of this month.
Morning lovely ladies, ric sorry to hear of your loss but you've come to the right place for all the support you need.
Snugglybean your a childcarer to, so am I (well thats what im qualified in) Dont work in a centre anymore because of the crappy money, but when i was there i worked with the 0 - 18mths so i can understand how stressfull it must be on you, i dont know how i would be coping if i was still there now while were TTC. Do whateva feels right for you and who cares what all the others think Also at the kanye comment, I think that would be hilarious but your right she might not understand.
craftmummy i hope you are feeling a little better today its so hard when you think you are coping ok and like you say it all just comes back so quickly and hits us so hard. Im glad you found comfort from the kind words of all the woderful women on here. And as for me feeling more & more positive each day AF stays away i surely am.
murraycod, hoping you didnt wake up to full on AF this morning and that it was only implantation bleeding or something similar. Dont feel as thouh you are letting DH down, im sure he knows just how hard you are trying and how badly you want a +ve as well as him. Dont forget it takes 2 to tango
Twinsister wow you do have alot of BDing to do i really hate trying to work out the best time to do the deed, hopefully you can figure it out and get a lovely BFP at the end of the month
Starangel how did you go with your BT did you get your results back yet? Have been thinking of you and sending lots of
hello to anyone else i may have missed
AFM STILL no AF (which is keeping me hopeful) but i POAS with first morning wee this morning and really expected to see those 2 pink lines and STILL BFN, what the hell is going on, it is absolutely killing me. All last night at work i had to keep going to the toilet because i was sure AF had showed up. I had quite a wet feeling in my knickers and AF like cramping but nope still not there. It makes it so much more stressful too because at work we wear all white so if she does turn up it will be there for everyone to see aaargh I have also had quite alot of wind (sorry for TMI) and pimples all over my face
Anyways better go and have some brekky and try and get on with my day and not think about it too much, easier said than done though
Talk soon
Hello ladies.....im still lurking. I very much feel a sense of belonging here with the TTC group, and miss my friends very much! Im hoping eveyone gets there wish soon. Just two persies for today.
Elise Louise......when my BFP came it was very hard to see even at 1 1/2weeks past due date for AF! Im hoping ur BFP is just as sneaky as mine was!
Strangelk............ for your blood test, ur very patient! to see a good rise in numbers. xo
"Call to me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things which you do not know." Jeremiah 33.3
(((hugs))) Murray I hate when AF shows up.... really smashes all hope you had been carrying.... I am so sorry she may be visiting you.
EL, As long as AF is still missing then there is still a chance for a BFP... I was following a woman a couple of months ago who didn't get a BFP til something like 20 DPO....
TS, have fun BDing You sure do O early!!
Crafty, (((hugs))) I am sorry you are having a rough time... We are very lucky yo have a place for us all to chat... it really does help. xx
Morning everyone,Twinsister-good luck with the bding schedule,fertitity specialist have told me once every 2nd day during the 2 week period ,before o,during o,just after o...Eliselouise-fingers still crossed for you,sometimes af symptoms can be similiar to early pregnancy symptoms,so heres hoping...Sunny,I remember you from when i was just reading,hope everything you going well for you.
Hello sunny, glad to see you are still lurking. How are things coming along with you?? Hope everything is going well Thankyou for your post it really gives me hope when i see stories like that, i too am hoping that its just being sneaky. I have a docs appt on thursday so if AF still hasnt showed up by then ill POAS that morning and then hopefully get some answers at the docs its a sneaky BFP hehe
Tanya thanx darls that too gives me hope, i also ovulate very early about CD8 so im currently about 18dpo so hopefully its just not showing up yet. Good luck with BDing when O time comes around and hopefully youll get a BFP in about 2-3 weeks time
matthewsmum thanx hun, i too am hoping that its pg symptoms not AF symptoms,hope things are going well for you
Anyway off to work now, Talk later
Dear Everyone,
Thanks for welcoming me to the forum and also making me a part of such a wonderful group of kind hearted ladies. I am glad that i joined in and i am sharing few tough moments of life.
craftymummy9 - your sayings are so true "we all have to believe in urselves, and we all will be pregnant again, we just have to be patient and pass this tought time"
Murraycod - Hope you get some relief from pain and cramping, hey but usually you get a spotting after implantation - may be thats a implantation bleeding. Hope everything goes well and look after yourself as well.
eliselouise85 - May be you are pregnant..all the best..Hope you post the news of BFP.
and to everyone in the forum - may we all sail this journey quickly and with smiling BFP results soon.
with me - I am waiting for AF to come which is due today, strangly, i dont know bcoz i had AF (end of Aug) after my D&C, and i again bleed for 4-5 days in mid sept ( i think that was in-between periods bleeding - i don't know), so technically, Today is my AF date..lets see, I just want to finish it as quickly as possible and like to start BDing...
Good day to all
love and hugs, ric xoxoxx
Murrycod hope the spotting is just implantation it can feel like AF is starting for sure but our bodies can trick us we think we know them but I don't think we really do our bodies are cleaver they keep us guessing. so still hoping you get a BFP and your DH will be just as much in love with you no matter what !
elsielouise go girl its looking good !
Thanks Tanya for thinking of me Im much better today thanks to these lovely ladies
everyone else hope your all feeling well and positive seems some good news could well be on this forum by the end of the week !
Feeling much better today was just a small blip hope I don't have too many more, Just wondering when to expect AF as had a D&C on sept 3rd but is this my day 1 or what who knows. Anyhow if I happened to o this month maybe there is a small chance of a BFP but not really thinking along those lines as yet.
Been keeping my hands and mind busy I love to knit and scrapbook and sew and all these crafts keep me sane been knitting away and it really calms me ( knitting baby clothes in the hope one day I will need them again anyone else as crazy as me ?
My DH is so supportive he keeps telling me you have never mc twice in a row as yet so maybe next BFP will be a good one for us, How sweet for him to even know that !
Anyhow have a good day and may we all get our BFP sooner rather than too much later
for all who need it

Thankyou to everyone, your kind words are very humbling, the support here is great XX
Af showed up full flow thismorning, right on shedule.
Not much time to greive the past cycle B/c I have to dust myself off and collect my new lot of injectables tomorrow, yay..................my little mates
I guess the not knowing part is the most stressfull, but once it's over, even if not a good result, you don't have to guess anymore and enjoy a wine (which tonight I promise I will!)
Thanks again everyone for all of the support during my cycle, I promise that I will be there for you all too X
Murraycod - I just love your posts, your attitude is inspiring to me.
Craftymummy9 - I have read in so many places that your body is still in "fertile" mode after a mc and you have a greater chance of conception. I think I might be testament to that.............
Ric - welcome, you are in a great place here.
Hi to EliseLouise, MatthewsMum, Tanya, Sunny09, Twinsister, snugglybean and all you other lovely ladies I have missed.
AFM - I had some good news today. I posted last week that I had a BFP on Wednesday but started bleeding and due to my miscarriage last cycle, I wasn't feeling hopeful and my Dr wasn't giving me much hope after I received a really low HCG level. Well, I am pleased to report my HCG has increased from 70 last Wednesday afternoon to 541 on Monday morning. I am extremely relieved and happy but unfortunately still spotting/lightly bleeding which means I need to keep having BT's to make sure my level continues to go up and also that the bleeding stops soon. So I am going to keep lurking and popping in on you guys but at this stage I am going to leave this thread.
Thank you all SO MUCH for your wonderful support xx
I have a bit of catching up to do, sorry if I miss anyone...
Starangel, congrats on the BFP, and I hope the spotting has calmed down for you.
Scarypinkfairy, I hope the pain and cramping have eased now--it's a difficult time. Hang in there!
murraycod, I'm sorry AF showed up, good luck with the next round of injections.
eliselouise, the waiting can be soooo annoying, I hope you have a BFP soon to end the suspense. Personally, my cycle can go to 35 days before AF arrives, so I wait until then to start testing if AF hasn't shown up already.
josh's mom, I hope the scan had good news.
ric, I'm glad you found this group, it's a great support. I'm sorry there was a reason you had to be here, but at least we can keep each other company.
craftymummy, I've had similar days. I'll go for a week doing all right, then have an off day when it's hard to not be pregnant.
As for me, I'm still crossing fingers in the TWW. AF could show up anytime between tomorrow and the following week, with a history of showing up as late as 35 days into the cycle. I generally force myself to not waste money by testing before at least day 33. We'll see what happens in the next week.
hi all ,Tanya-hope you're concerving your energy...Eliselouise-fingers still crossed...ric-hope your cycles sort themselves out soon...Craftymummy-I've started scrapbooking again,lost interest for a while.I do find it therapeutic though.I'm a bit of a bargain hunter and i keep seeing tiny baby clothes so cheap ,it hard not to buy them ...Murr aycod-enjoy your drink/s as after this cycle you wont be able to for 9months...Starangelk-great news about your levels,congratulations your having a baby...Bookworm-long cycles are a pain,before the clomid i had one 42 days.I'm in tww as well,fingers crossed for you
hey girls, the mood seems kind of positive in here today.
i'm another one with long cycles, pretty much the same as you bookworm
just wondering if anyone knows when my bleeding will stop. had the tablets on 23rd and again on 25th, but i am very impatient and just want to start ttc already! i am going to wait till i get my cycle back so i know where i am but just wondered if any of you have any advise.
afm, i'm still pretty emotional about the whole thing. i went back to work today and luckily only a few people at work knew i was pregnant so didn't have to tell too many people my bad news. although i was in tears each time i told anyone. but i can say that the majority of people i have spoken to have all lost their first pregnancy but went on to have a healthy baby with their next pregnancy. so that is at least some comfort.
your hcg levels look good to me starangelk
good luck eliselouise, bookworm, matthew's mum and anyone else in the i have to say my first pregnancy symptoms was definitely bad skin and wind!!!
Murraycod - Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear AF showed up. I'm glad you are so positive about it though. I agree, the worst part is not knowing and even if you have bad news at least you know. It's just such a shame it wasn't better news.
elouise - even though you got a BFN, your lack of AF sounds very promising! When I was pG with DS i had a bloaty tummy and bad skin too so here's hoping.....
Tanya - we can wait for O together. When do you normally O? I've always had pretty short cycles. O around 12 days and then AF 13 DPO.
Matthew's Mum - I've heard every 2nd day before too, but I'm so worried about missing O that I think we may try for every day. We had company last night so we are starting tonight. It's funny, I have butterflies in my stomach thinking about being pregnant again.
Ric - i know how you feel. I was so excited when AF showed up after our m/c so we could start TTC again. I feel like all any of us ever do is wait for stuff. Wait for AF, wait for O, wait to POAS. The only wait we all want is the 9 month wait!!
craftymummy - I'm as crazy as you LOL. I bought this cute cross stitch wall hanging to make for the new baby, if it ever comes. I have not yet found the time to start it yet and I still need someone how to show me how to do it, but I still bought it lol. I have tons of other stuff to keep me busy anyways (I too love scrapbooking and sewing and knitting and such)
Starangel - YAY for great bloodwork results, that's fantastic news!! I hope you come back and keep us updated on your progress!!
bookworm - Good luck in your TWW. hopefully this time next week you'll be moving on to the PG after M/C thread as well
scarypinkfairy - I had a hard time telling everyone that I was no longer pregnant as well. I cried every single time I had to do it. I got DH to tell most of them cuz it was too hard for me and I didn't want to see the looks of pity on their faces after I'd been so excited when I told them.
Hello to everyone else I've missed
Not much going on with me ATM , just waiting for O
For the girl's who remember me just a quick update.
OH MY GOD!!!! GOOD NEW'S
I just got a phone call from the scientist our test is finished and is being sent today for it's second check and he said stop panicing i will get the green light next week and i will definately be able to start in oct yippeeeee!!!!!!! finally after 6mth's i can actually try for a healthy baby .
I also wanted to say miss you coco,sunny,eliselouise,sammy,maddison,and all my other girl's i should start injection's on the 11th-12th of oct keep your finger's crossed for me and let's hope we can all meet up in the pregger's forum's
Twinsister glad im not the only crazy one on here I also love to cross stitch and its so easy you basically find the centre of your fabric, find the centre on your graph and choose the correct colour indicated with a symbol and off you go making sure all your stitches cross over the same way each square on the graph is a stitch on your fabric.
Good luck anyway its very theraputic. Im busy knitting a matinee set love the old fasioned lacy type with booteees and so on.
Murrycod hope you enjoyed your wine make the most of it you may have to give it up prity soon for 9mnths !
Matthews mum glad you can enjoy your scrapping again its a wonderful way to loose yourself for a few hours.Keeps you calm and relaxed ready to grow a healthy bub soon I hope !
Elsielouise has AF still not here I sure hope so. I am not sure of my cycle as had a D&C 28 days ago but POAS this morning just to see and a BFN I also got cheap ones off ebay and have no signs of AF but as I say not really sure of my cycle either but hey let us know whats going on !
StarangelK what a fantastic BP result you must be pleased with that there is definately something there ! I understand your reluctance to celebrate just yet but I do hope you start feeling sick soon and I mean that in the nicest way I always felt dreadful when I got a good BFP that resulted in a full term baby anyway !
Hi to bookworm12 and ric and Tanya too and all you other ladies keep Positive I just know we have some good news coming on this forum VERY SOON !
for me today but not sure of my cycle so still waiting to see whats happening !
ric sorry to hear of your loss but you've come to the right place for all the support you need.
