Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 12

Oh no that's terrible devildolly
You really would think they could update records!

I miscarried my first pregnancy and had to have a D&C, when I was coming round and being wheeled back to the ward the two porters had a good old chat about how they would like to 'do' me!!!! A very strong worded letter was sent but nothing came of it!

Annnnyway, I'm 4dpo today and really really trying not to look out for any signs but it's really hard! Lol

This month I have noticed ewcm on 1,2 and 3 dpo which is really unusual for me...who knows..

For this around 4/5 dpo, when are you planning to test?

Good news today, my sister is expecting her first! I just found out today and I'm really thrilled for her. Fingers crossed we could be preggers together!

That is truly horrible devil dolly

I am 6DPO and feel awful with a cold. Also have been having some little cramps and twinges, **TMI**plus some snotty off white CM which sort of stretches a bit. Not a lot either.

I couldn't resist a test and unsurprisingly got a BFN! Silly me must learn patience.

Oh my days devildolly that is atrocious. I'd be sending a very strongly worded letter!

Hi girls, thought I would dip my toes in. I have a 21mth DS and I recently had mmc at 8weeks after having a private scan. I had a d&c nearly 3weeks ago so im waiting for af before we can try again.
Devil dolly, so sorry you received a phone call from the hv.
Tsil, wow to what the porters said!
Black ribboner, big hugs, I can totally empathise, I have had some very down days after my mc, it totally floored me. Xx

Welcome to all of the newbies! I hope your stays here are short (in the nicest possible way!)

I can't believe what I've read about the things hospital staff have said to some of you, the porters thing is absolutely ridiculous!

CD8 today and my nausea has subsided slightly but my boobs are killing me! Had a bit of creamy CM earlier but don't start OPKs until Saturday.

Started back at the gym yesterday with OH so I'm on a health kick!

Devildolly, that is horrible!!!!

Hope everyone is okay this fine Thursday morning. It's my sister's b-day this weekend, so we're going wild and visiting the Yorkshire Wildlife Park. Looking on the (very dim) bright side of a BFN, at least we can have cocktails after. I think this weather calls for malibu and pineapple juice!

Good luck with co-ordinating pregnancies, T-Sil. It would be great to have a sister as a pregnancy buddy, and for your children to have cousins a similar age.

SMEP day 1 did not happen. We took MIL out for a quick dinner, and wound up getting home about 10pm, by which point we were both too tired to BD. This morning, the Fertility Monitor says high fertility, so it must happen tonight. Phones unplugged, dog shut downstairs, batteries removed from doorbell

Anyone know if hot tubs are okay for those of us TTC? I've booked a weekend away at a lodge with a hot tub in a fortnight, while the builders begin phase one of knocking the house around. I'd really like to use it this time - last time I booked a hot tub lodge, AF made an appearance :mad:

Cuilean, not sure about female fertility, but hot tubs/hot baths can affect swimmers, to what extent though I'm unsure.

Yikes, hadn't considered that. Thanks, Aileth. Looks like hubby will be the one perched sadly on the edge of the hot tub this time :rotfl:

It's been six months and still ttc vocabulary can catch me unawares - I read aileth's post and for a moment got mightily confused about why hot tubs would be bad for anyone wanting to do a few laps of their local pool! :rotfl:

Good luck with SMEP Cuilean and well done on the gym lulu!

Thanks everyone for sharing your stories and positivity - truly inspiring
