Hi there,

We've been trying to make our dream of having a baby come true for two years now, but unfortunately, it's still not happening. Today I noticed thick white mucus and I'm 2 days before my expected period. I don't know if anyone here has experience with this? I do have mild cramps; two nights ago I had severe cramps, so I thought it might be implantation, but so far no signs to recognize. I've been pregnant more often than I should be. Does anyone have tips or advice on what I can do with this?

Greetings

    And have you been to your GP yet?

    No, not that, but I wouldn't know what the GP could do. We don't want to go in and out of the hospital. We'd prefer a natural approach. I see so many people in my circle who've gone through the hospital and had so many problems, and that's not what we want.

    Yeah, I get that, but that's exactly what we don't want. If we have to count, then of course it has to be, but we mean that we don't want to go in and out of the hospital just to get pregnant. Maybe I didn't word it well in the other post.

    But if you don't want to do that, can't you just have them check if everything is okay?
    Maybe they'll have some tips for you on how to proceed.

    That might actually be a good idea, js. Just get checked to see if we're both fertile, right? That's what you mean, isn't it?

    Yes, exactly! At least you know where you stand.

    I don't know how crazy you can get yourself, but I feel different than usual now. It's 1 day before my due date, and I'm having spasms/cramps in the lower left part of my belly from time to time, and I'm really struggling with gas. Normally with IBS I don't have any trouble with that. Am I just getting myself worked up, or could it actually be it after 2 years?

    Good morning!
    You could take a test now if you want to know. They seem to be able to show positive results from 4 days before your due date. Unfortunately, I don’t have any experience with them yet. But you can give it a try.
    Let me know?
    Love

    I've decided to do it as soon as I wake up tomorrow. I work shifts, so I don't want to focus too much on it either. Every disappointment isn't nice, of course. As soon as I've taken the test, I'll definitely let you know.

    Exciting. I also work rotating shifts, so I sometimes find it hard to make sense of what I feel in my body.
    I'm rooting for you.
    Love

    Hi there!

    I took a test, unfortunately negative, but no period in sight. I'm now 1 day late and I still have absolutely no symptoms that my period is coming. Has anyone here experienced this by any chance?

    Greetings

    Just took another test. I'm now 3 days late and my period still hasn't arrived, and the test is negative. Does anyone have an idea what I can do now? Wait it out or contact my midwife?

    Greetings, Mell
