Hi all

Congrats Angel on your BFP :j:j

I have a question as im still confused as to whether im ov'ing or not. I get symptoms like temp going up, small pains but i dont seem to get egg white cm (sorry tmi) does everyone get this symptom or not everyone necessarily? I do only have one ovary but have been told this wont affect ttc but perhaps i will only ovulate alternate or even random months??

Not everyone gets ewcm, but it is supposed to help the swimmers swim to get to the egg.

Are you drinking (non alcoholic) enough?
Also, drinking grapefruit juice is supposed to help as well. Other option is to take Robitussin cough syrup (red one without de-congestant) or use Preseed/Conceive plus.

You should try if from few days before ov until ov.

Way too nervous to see the words "not pregnant".......... and it's not very MSE. Will try one when AF is late.

Morning everyone, hope u are all well this morning. CD12 for me, time to start BD'ing! Hoping my OPK test strips are there when I get home from work.

Debs, I have no experience in this but it looks positive to me, especially as this morning's is darker. Keeping everything crossed for you. Can't wait to hear you have a BFP!

Debs , I did lots of IC over a number of days and the line only started getting darker after I was over a week late. FR and digis worked from 12/13 dpo with me.

I'd defo say BFP!!

that is brilliant news

was just wondering if you could tell me your story ie. when you mc'd and how far gone your were. you can pm me if you don't want to put it on here.

i had mc at the end of nov so your bfp is brilliant news and really inspires me that my time will come again.

i am just waiting for AF which seem to be taking forever - did you get your af? did you have erpc or did the mc happen naturally?

Woohoo, 2nd BFP of the year x

Thanks Pebbles.

I had a MMC at 11+3 - I'd been bleeding for 5 days at that point, worried myself sick so went to A&E. They booked me in for an emergency scan and I found out that the bean had stopped growing at around 7weeks. I had a ERPC the following Monday, at the exact same time I should have been having my 12 week scan.

I bled for around a week afterwards, and got AF 4 weeks later (so 5 weeks from ERPC). I then had a short cycle (4 days shorter than normal) and got a TLP in this current cycle. I haven't temped or peed on anything - just monitored my CM and BDed twice in that fertile time. Fingers crossed this is a BFP and this bubba will stick. I'm very very nervous and so am pretending nothing has happened so far. I'm all too aware of what can go wrong.

I posted my rawest feelings on the MC support thread - it helped me come to terms with it - I hope it will help others too, help them feel they're not alone or that any feelings aren't normal. Link to it is here.

It will happen for you. I always had hope that it would. Took me a while to feel positive, and get over the "not fair"ness of it all. But it will happen. Keep positive. Stay relaxed. Enjoy life.
