November thread for all swaying BLUE xxxxx

CD 9, cycles have been getting about a day shorter each time, so right now it's about 25 or 26 days. Last month I started opks on cd12 and never got a +, ff put me as o'ing that day. So, this month I started testing on cd6.

Not that I want him to be sad on his birthday, but I'm horrified that everything I've been working on would be out the window!


Thanks for making me feel better!!! I am miffed about no preseed, but I guess there's no way to go back. So I'll just start creepily inoculating myself with it.

It's fine to have lots of swimmers in there when you're swaying blue, the stuff may even help make the environment more alkaline. If anything, I'd say you gave your sway a little boost :)

Thanks Anchor. Where are you cd wise?

CD 7 today. Last day of Soy Iso, but DH is complaining that he can't even SEE his side of the vanity, and threatened to sweep my pharmacy of supplements into the garbage just this morning. The action begins tonight :).

You're so funny pom.....
I'm not sure who asked but I'm weaning off the coq10, not on fish/flax oil. No more gelatin drinks :-)
Blue....I was getting af cramps... I hope you get your bfp very soon.

Thanks all. I'm gonna hold of testing today 11dpo. Will try tomorrow and Thursday as have 2 tests left. Then AF due Saturday. Flying overseas for the holidays on Saturday to stay with family for Christmas. This is why although our first month I'm praying more as December will be so difficult. Time will tell.

Pom. Sounds like you've helped your sway. GL x

Pom same thing happened to me. I usually O on CD17 - 19 and on this particular occasion i has a smudge of ewcm on CD12 so me and DP got a little frisky on the couch - NO PRESEED and i J&D!!!! well guess what happened..... BFP and a BOY! i cant believe my lucky stars! I really hold faith in the HE DIET i am positive THAT got me a SON :)

Pom, hilarious! All of these plans we have... As the others are saying, just go with it! Hopefully you'll O in 2-4 days and it will just be a nice added ph/sperm boosting release. And as Cinss says above, it worked for her!!!

I have nothing else new to add except, I HATE THE 2WW!

Ha ha.. I'm
Exactly the same. If work were to ever do a google check I woyld be fired. Can't help myself and kp going back and back to see if I've missed anything. I'm going to test tomorrow 12 dpo. Still feel like AF is coming but also feel a little nausea. Not sure if this is nerves and stress tho. Have a twitchy eye which tells me it could be stress. Oh well I should know by the weekend. Hope your feeling ok!

Good luck Blueplease & becca!

I haven't had a great day today. I started bleeding this morning (bright red) and have had old/brownish blood during the day and it has just started bright red again :worry: I went to the doctors (had made the appointment yesterday) and of course there is nothing they can do. But my doctor was so lovely and offered me a scan on the spot! I declined given we probably wouldn't see anything which would just make me worry more. I have a scan booked for next Wednesday though when I will be nearly six weeks. In the meantime, I have had blood tests taken and will get my hcg monitored.

I really hope that I am worry about nothing.... man this is hard!

Oh Cass i know how stressful it is to see blood :( Ill be thinking of you, and hopefully its only some break through AF or just bubs settling in. Best of luck for Wednesday i hope you see everything is ok. Keep us posted.

Oh Cass I'm sorry. That's horrible to be going through this.
Try not to worry too much. Plenty of people have early bleeding and go on to have healthy babies.
:bighug:

Cass I bled A 7 weeks with my oldest and then at 27 weeks. I know it's easy for us to say but pls try not to worry. Plenty of rest. Were all thinking of you .

Oh Cass I'm sorry you have to go through that, I had bleeding early on and off for a couple months and the dr said it was because I had a vascular cervix. Hopefully everything is ok

Oh Cass I'm so sorry, it must be so stressful.

Cass hope your feeling a little better and are resting.

12 dpo for me and a negative. Looks like probably not my month

Booooo. Sorry blue...

Well, I have had three days elevated temps so FF says I did O on the weekend...I guess I am in the 2ww with you girls.
I am kind of hoping I don't fall pregnant this month as I am concerned now the Gastro may have swayed girl. Argghhh!!
I have fallen pregnant 4 times the first time I tried (lost one early between DD1 and DD2) but am a couple years older now... we shall have to wait and see.
I guess my thoughts at the time of going for it were that 8 hours of diarrhoea surely couldn't undo 2 months of a great diet sway...now I'm not sure.

Cass... I'm sorry this is happening to you x
Blue....boo to your bfn
Good luck luv....

Thanks for the support ladies, I appreciate it :happy:

Blueplease - sorry to hear you got a BFN. Any signs of AF yet?
Luv - I hope your 2ww goes by quickly - I am sure it will given the holiday season.

No sign of Af yet but expecting it friday/ Saturday. So until that comes I'm still holding onto hope as I know cinss always gets her Bfp later. But I can tell Af is on way. All the tell tale signs although have had these for the last week. Only difference is really sore bbs which I don't normally get but I think this month isn't my time. Just wish it was a few months back and not coming into the holidays. Oh well. If it is negative the plus side is being on the diet will only jel my sway although I'm so over the eating like everyone.

Cass.. Got everything x for you x

I hope you get a nice surprise but like you said, if you don't then you will be able to do the diet etc for longer which can only be a good thing for your sway. But I agree with you, all the eating is tough, especially when you are out and about with the children!

Cass, I have just been reading about early bleeding and thought I would attach this :

Bleeding in early pregnancy is always worrying, but it's also surprisingly common. About 15 to 25 per cent of women experience bleeding early on in their pregnancy. There can be several possible reasons for it.

You might be experiencing "breakthrough" bleeding. Pregnancy hormones cover up your usual hormonal cycle, but variations in those normal cycles still go on. Some women notice breakthrough bleeding at around the time they would usually have had a period as a result of this "background" variation in hormonal levels.

Also, in the very early stages of pregnancy, there can be a day or two of light bleeding as the fertilised egg implants, and the placenta starts to develop. Implantation bleeding is thought to occur at about the same time as a period would have been due. This makes it hard to tell whether it's implantation or breakthrough bleeding. However, it's thought that breakthrough bleeding rather than implantation bleeding is most likely to be the cause.

Occasionally women will experience a cervical erosion (a softening of the cervix), which can cause bleeding in early pregnancy. Bleeding can also be associated with a vaginal or cervical infection or a polyp (a benign growth). These three conditions could all result in some bleeding after intercourse.

Read more: What could bleeding during early pregnancy mean? - BabyCenter

Just to let you know, I had a MC at 5 1/2 weeks between DD1 and DD2 and the cramping had me in bed unable to move for 24 hours. Apparently bleeding is not that uncommon and doesn't have to mean worst case scenario.
Stay positive, we are all thinking of you.

Cass when do you get your blood results?

Thanks for the info luvalittleman, I appreciate the effort.

Minimatron - I am waiting to get through to the nurses now. I know that they have my results as I called earlier and they had to wait for the doctor to review before looking at them (standard procedure here).

All the bests Cass... how did it go?

Got the call. My hcg is very low so that combined with the bleeding is pointing strongly towards miscarriage :broken:

I have now started cramping a bit and the bleeding is getting heavier.

I will get my hcg taken again tomorrow to confirm. Results can take up to three days but I hope to get them back within a day, like I did with these ones.

Sorry to put a downer on the board. Let's hope for some happy BFPs soon!

So sorry Cass, i know early m/c can be very painful physically, if you feel like it is over dont be afraid to take pain relief and heat packs will help :(

I'm sorry Cass, I was really hoping it could have been anything else.
Get yourself a hot pack and please stay on here with us. Many of us (especially us old eggs) will be trying for some time.
((((((((:sad:))))))))

Big hugs.

Thinking of you Cass:HH: xxx

Big hugs Cass x

Case.. Thinking of you and your family. X

I'm so sorry Cass...I had a m/c at 12 weeks back in October and it was one of the hardest things I ever went through. HUGS

I am so sorry about your miscarriage Anchor. It is so hard - emotionally and physically - after just over four weeks pregnant that I just can't imagine how difficult it would be at 12 weeks.

I got my hcg taken this morning and will visit my doctor tomorrow morning. The cramping and bleeding is a lot worse today than it was tomorrow so I guess the test/doctor visit is just a formality. But at least I will be able to talk through everything and see when she recommends trying again.

Thanks again to everyone for your support, it really means a lot to me. My hubby hasn't been overly sensitive about this but I guess it is difficult for them to understand. The old "let's move forward and try again" is ok for him but I am still stuck dealing with the miscarriage. Don't get me wrong, he is a great man/husband but they can't seem to say the right things!

My DH said something along the lines of "you gained all that weight for nothing". Thanks honey. MEN.

Oh Cass, I'm so very sorry to hear that. I can't imagine the heartache it causes. I hope it all goes very quickly. My very best friend had a miscarriage earlier in the year. She had the same situation with her husband. He is very loving and all he wants to do is make her happy, yet he never said the right things. Everything he did or said upset her more. She just wanted him to grieve with her and not just press forward with optimism. She just gave birth to her first little one 2 weeks ago and while still deeply hurt by her miscarriage, is so happy with her baby, no sleep and all. It will happen and soon! xxx

Yeah it is hard for the men to relate, not their fault they just never have to go through anything like it. I know it is heartbreaking now, but i always think if i'd never had a m/c with my 1st i wouldn't have my DD now, so it all gets put into perspective eventually, even though i never think the thoughts of that little one who came and left will ever go away.

Cass, I am so sorry. I know how hard it can be to want to acknowledge what happened and the people around you to not get it. And, complete disclosure- when we found out we lost our baby I asked for something to make my brain shut off. My ob gave me enough Xanax to get through the weekend after the d&e and it was a Godsend. Don't be afraid to ask for something so you can get some rest. Do not hesitate to message me if you want to talk about anything.

My heart breaks for you and I pray your body heart can heal quickly.
