Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 12

dinglefoot

Thanks FreddieFrugal and I'm sorry to hear about the baby with anencephaly I hope you don't have to try too much longer :grouphug:

Since Friday/Saturday I've been feeling a bit odd in the tummy with bloating and nausea. Today and yesterday it has also extended to aching hips, some cramping (which feels like it's in the area of the cervix) and lower back ache.

Bizarrely, when I woke up yesterday morning the first thought in my mind when I was half asleep was "I'm pregnant!"

Sorry, I know this all sounds daft, but could it really be possible to have some symptoms of pregnancy in what would be less than two weeks of conceiving? I am pretty sensitive to hormonal changes, I had to stop taking the pill because it caused me to have migraines and increased anxiety/dizzy spells at certain times of the month.

CD46 & AF on the way - spotting this evening, cramps, bloating, sore back, & moods all over the show. That makes this cycle 20 days longer than last couple. I can see how it can take a year for cycle to get back to normal after coming off the pill. Onwards & upwards to next cycle I guess, although I've a wedding at the weekend, ging to look so bloated in my dress now :mad:

Baby dust to all

Hi all, I've been lurking on this thread for quite a while but decided to join. A bit about me: my husband and I started TTC in August 2014. We conceived pretty quickly but unfortunately, we had to terminate our much wanted pregnancy at 21 weeks due to multiple fatal defects found during our 20-week scan.
We have been actively TTC since April of this year and no luck so far. The entire TTC thing is making me so low and, as no one close to us knows that we are trying again, I thought maybe joining here would give me some support. From reading your posts, I can see I'm not the only one that starts each and every cycle feeling positive and ends up a ball of stress and nerves half way into the TWW. Any ideas of what I can do to take my mind off things?

Sorry angel sounds like you and I are alike in our crazy cycles, so frustrating!!

Welcome lola, we definitely all talk about both the highs and the lows so feel free to vent/rant/cry/laugh as much as needed

Hi lola, no specific tips, but coming on here & unloading is a great way to cope with it all

Hi ladies,
Please can I rejoin you all? Unfortunately my very much wanted and loved baby stopped growing at 6 weeks and I've had a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks. I'm not ready to track/try or anything yet as everything is still so raw but hoping to channel as much positive energy as I can by lurking for now and hopefully watching some people who have been where I am now get their BFPs.
Love and luck to you all Xx
