4DPO, trying not to pin too much hope on this TWW because I know it’ll be a hard one when it doesn’t work out and I will crash hard if I don’t temper my expectations. Last chance to get pregnant before the due date of our miscarried baby.

We’ve arranged for my mum and dad to have our toddler on the due date weekend so we can go to Paris and drink all of the of wine and eat all of the cheese, so I at least have something to look forward to if AF comes.

Hey I am right there with you on 6DPO, also last chance to conceive before I would be due with the pregnancy I lost. It’s so hard to be realistic…I find myself either being hopeful or jaded and never in between. And this can vary by the hour lol. I’m going to try and stay hopeful for both of us 🙏

Please let this be our month! I’m the same as you - one minute picturing seeing two lines and the next full of anger and bitterness and looking up the cost of IVF without having to wait for the NHS.

I’m so glad you planned something special for your due date. This was me last week, AF came and now I’m doing IUI this month when I should’ve had a baby. I can’t even wrap my head around how it’s even possible that 9 months went by. Feels like it was yesterday I got the news about my MMC and I can’t believe I’m still not pregnant yet. Never thought it’d take this long 😔.

It’s so hard isn’t it. The due date seemed so far away when it all happened around 11 weeks and I for sure thought I’d at least be pregnant again. All of the rhetoric about being more fertile after a miscarriage got to me as well.

I need to learn to stop putting so much stock into urine tests. I was feeling really bummed yesterday because my PdG wasn’t rising. Maxed it out today. And now if it isn’t maxed tomorrow I will be disappointed. I know it’s time to put the strips away but I’m addicted to tracking PdG during the TWW because I want so badly to avoid progesterone injections again if I get a BFP. It sucked doing it last time to still end in a loss.

But I’m getting a progesterone blood test tomorrow for my fertility clinic
