In a way yes but 3 BFN's later and the bloods also came back negative, I'm definitely losing the plot. These symptoms are what makes me think I'm going loopy. Obviously the one test was faulty or I did something wrong. But my boobs are tender, I'm nauseous most of the day, I've had stretching cramping. I keep analyzing my tracking and these are definitely different for me at this point in my cycle as is some of the cm I have been getting. IDK this could all be because my body/hormones have changed since the MC.
Luckily I have an appointment already booked for the 12th to see the doctor so I can use this as an example of my craziness. I also keep thinking I need to take a break but am finding it difficult to not be thinking about TTC.0 -
Sorry to hear that Athensgeorgia. It could have been a chemical pregnancy Would explain the symptoms and the positive looking test and AF arriving.
I think I have had 2, possibly 3 of these but I have had to stop overthinking it all and have forced myself to not test early, stopped using First Response and I have thrown out the positive looking tests from previous cycles and stopped analysing everything because it doesn't help me at all. I keep trying to put myself in the mindset that I am either pregnant or I'm not and if I was, AF would not come and I would have a clear cut positive test eventually. That's it, no other scenario.
Obviously the above is the way I handle it and I'm not suggesting you do the same as it sounds quite harsh reading it back. You need to do what you need to do to get through the heartache and confusion every month as to what is going on.
It's good to discuss things with your GP and seek help and advice. I am down that route now and I have explained the chemicals, for what they are worth (they are not usually counted in stats)0 -
hey athensgeorgia, sorry the bloods came back negative..... as you said, maybe your bosy hasnt quite returned to normal. Huge hugs and I hope you get some answers at the appointment. I'll pop you in the wine zone on the daily list and you can let me know your CD date, really gutted for youTTC #3..........0

Anyone peeking at my chart will have noticed my temps didn't take a dive when AF arrived. I don't think I've ever seen that before. In the back of mind, I wonder it we caught the egg, but as my lp is short, my period started before the bean could take hold. I know I can't do anything about that and absolutely wont test as it won't do me any good, but wondered if anyone else had any thoughts to why my temps might stay high, perhaps put my mind at ease....TTC #3..........0

Temps finally plummeted today.... OV predicted at end of December. Hope it won't be xmas day, how will I fit in bd'ing? Lol
Hope everyone doing ok, just shout if anything needs updating on the daily listTTC #3..........0 -
Wow it's been quiet on here the last couple of days. Hows everyone doing?
I'm on CD29 so I am awaiting AF's arrival with bated breath which according to Ovia is tomorrow. Not felt the usual AF symptoms this month, I was mega early last month so I hope IF AF is coming she doesn't keep me waiting too long because as you all know the yes/no waiting game is the worst!!
I've decided if the witch does show up at least I can enjoy Christmas with a few sherry's and start the new year with lots of PMA.
Good luck and lots of baby dust to us all

I was trying to have a bit of a rest after last week's issue so when I came back to catch up I thought it was a bit quiet.
Hope AF is staying away Butterfly.
Can you please add me to the list Twig CD23 If in doubt zone please.0 -
I'm still here, lurking with not a lot to say. CD26 for me - AF usually shows today but last month waited until CD29 so I won't think too much into it if no show over the next few days, stupidly did a First Response last week as was still feeling crampy and bloated (BFN, obviously) so trying not to get too carried away.
Fingers crossed for you BB that AF stays away!0
