    I agree Rachy def chat to docs. Sorry for tmi and this isn't my own experience but I have a friend who had 4 miscarriages over 4 years and only on the last one did they do a proper "clean out" op (D&C maybe?). Then straight after that she conceived two healthy children in quick succession. She's convinced something wasn't right after the first mcs and it was only by fighting to speak to a specialist that it got sorted because someone appreciated something else could be going on.

    So her advice is definitely to push the docs as much as it takes to get some proper answers and not just be brushed off!!

    Athens well done on resisting POAS so far!!! I've got to wait until tomorrow to buy anymore which will mean I can either test tomorrow afternoon or I have to wait until Friday morning, the suspense is horrible haha! Fingers crossed it's good for you!!!
    Rachy defiantly worth speaking to your Dr and getting it all checked out.

  • New I work in the centre of a small town and right next door to my office is a £ shop. That's why I only had the dip in a pot tests because that's all they had last time. I'm going to try again today and see if they have any better ones. I'm reluctant to buy a better hpt until I have a faint bfp to 'confirm' iyswim. There are two other £ shops round the corner so may try them all to get the real POAS type of hpt.
  • Forget that. AF has arrived.

    Can you put me CD1 please New.

    athens I think I would defiantly be buying too many if I was that close to a store! I both live & work basically in the middle of nowhere so no chance for me easily picking up any tests :o Sorry AF arrived :(

  • I'm sat in work crying now cause I was feeling so positive. I'd been so chilled out and thought I was gonna get a BFP. Now I just feel like poop mentally and physically is not great either.
  • Sorry to hear about AF AthensGeorgia. I've had a bit cry this morning too and OH feels totally powerless. It really does mess with your head and shatter your dreams this TTC lark :(

    Thanks for your advice and info Cats. My bleeding is now heavy so I think I can say AF is definitely here. I still have tingling boobs though which is not a usual symptom. I will probably breakdown in the doctors tomorrow so I think they will have no choice but to listen. I am just now panicking that I have had two CP's - there is no sure fire way of knowing they definitely were that though is there?
  • Thanks Rachy.

    I think if it was the other way around and you weren't so clued up on TTC it would be different. If you went to your doctor saying you'd tested on XX CD/DPO and had positive hpt 2 months in a row they'd be telling you they were chemical.

    I remember when TTC with DD I was fobbed off a bit until I saw one of the doctors who specialises in women's health and she referred me straightaway. It was a totally different experience with a different doctor. Even with the MC I received better treatment from a certain doctor compared to nightmare I had had previously with a different one.

    Maybe seeing you and how emotional you are will kick start something for you. Can DH go with you as back up/support?
  • Unfortunately not as he is back to work tomorrow. I think I am just worried that my faint lines have been evaps but it would be a massive coincidence. I just find it weirder as this period is earlier than usual and all the symptoms are different to what is normal for me. Although I do think that my whole TTC experience and monthly cycles haven't been consistent though and the tracking has been impossible to decipher. Sigh.
