    Thanks for the support, I will speak to my Dr this week and get all the info I need.......I'm sure he'll think I'm nuts as he probably did tell me all this stuff but I was in shock that he said I would miscarry within the week!
    Satya Thanks for the Info I am 37 so I guess my risk has increased and I'll just have to wait and see what my cycle does now.....That's sort of why I want to return to work as Time fly's with my shifts......

    Welcome to BB, Dawnee. Sorry to read of your loss. How far along was your pregnancy, if you don't mind me asking? I had a natural miscarriage at about 6 and half weeks (a blighted ovum) last October and the bleeding was heavy - medium for 3 days, light for 2 more days and then I had spotting for 4 days. Seven days later I began spotting again and then had another five days of bleeding. That cycle was 5 weeks before AF returned. After my D&C in May (a missed miscarriage at 11w3d), I had 5 days of medium - light bleeding and spotting for 6 days. And then AF took 8 weeks to return. I'm 39 years old and still trying for baby number 1. I was advised to wait one cycle and then TTC again. As for all the abbreviations, you won't take long to pick them up. There's a post with abbreviations in the Introduce yourself thread - https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums/showthread.php?t=9 Good luck with your TTC journey -thinking of you.

    Treelo, I noticed my breasts were becoming super sensitive at 16DPO but thought I noticed that they were looking swollen and heavier at 9DPO.

    Good luck for tomorrow, LizJessie. Fingers crossed for you

    Thanks Missbelinda!! That book sounds like it would be a good read. Sorry, though, I can't remember which book you had with you at Maccas! Think I was too surprised to have run into you there, lol.

    Satya, I truly hope that this cycle results in a BFP for you. The symptoms you describe and your temperatures sound so promising. And despite the censor, I got what you meant by the sensations in your lower abdomen. Wishing you a nice, dark, no mistaking it BFP when you test and no more tears. And wishing you a truckload of stickyvibes.

    Salt, if you're lurking, I just want you to know that I hope you're okay. I've been thinking of you heaps.

    Well, I don't think I have any chance at getting any BD happening this cycle at the right time so I'm just going to be sending you all my positive thoughts and keeping everything crossed for you. Good luck everyone.

    Treelo - the BB thing is a difficult question. I never got sore BBs with either of my pregnancies - I didn't notice any changes in the first pg at all. With the second one they didn't get sore but they seemed a little bigger & I kept getting headlights for no reason if you know what I mean... which was unusual for me. This happened at around 5 weeks. Also many women get breast changes leading up to their AF (sometimes I do) so I try not to read anything in to that.



    Me: Still no spotting. My temp has stayed stable for 3 days so I guess AF is not coming tomorrow..... maybe Wednesday (hopefully not at all). I usually get a major temp drop a day or two before AF arrives and spotting always precedes it. My DF put his head on my stomach last night and said "my baby's in there". I so hope it is, but I can't let my head go that way or there will be just too much disappointment in store when AF arrives. Apparently he had a dream that I was pregnant and that it was a boy.

    I'd better go get ready for work. I got a new haircut on Sat and I'm still getting used to it. It's very modern and different to what I had and I want it to look it's best for the unveiling at work. I hope I don't get any strange looks. My DF looked stunned when I got in the car after having it done & I thought it must have been bad, but he said it's the best haircut I've ever had and that it makes me look radiant.

    Hope everyone has a great day.
