Thanks again to everyone who replied :) I wasn't sure whether to do a bulk reply or individuals. Decided on the latter, hope that's okay :) I can't express how much all your messages have comforted me and given me the boost and reassurance I needed.
@Primrose16 i'm dreading when people start with the questions about 'when are you going to have a baby', 'do you want to start a family' etc. I found it awkward before people asking and now will be even worse. I know i'll feel like saying to them to mind their own business and that we've had a MC and it's not that easy but I don't want everyone knowing. My work is male dominated and a high pressured environment and I really don't want them knowing all our business. My husband was asked just a few days after the MC by his barber, i really felt for him. He just froze and didn't know what to say.
Thank you @SoozC it's comforting to read other people have TTC sooner rather than latter. Part of me felt like we should wait but it was more because of worrying about other people rather than it being about us. We've talked about it a lot and we want to start trying as soon as we can. i've started to use the ovulation tests too to try and work out what is going on with my body. My periods were irregular before the MC so expecting them to be even worse now!
@PassTheAfterEights thanks so much. I feel like i'm over the worst part now (hopefully). The bleeding stopped about two weeks ago and the cramps a week ago so physically i'm feeling much better. Now everyone we wanted to tell knows i feel better too. We have lots of support and don't have to have the worry and emotions about breaking the news to people. I think that's what made it worse a few days ago. i'm feeling far more positive about things now and ready to start trying... we've actually got our peak according to the ovulation test eek. So sorry it wasn't your month this time but i'll keep my fingers crossed for you next time! It has helped so much to see other people are TTC straight away. I heard about being super fertile after MC somewhere else too... strange. We also wanted to take advantage of that.
@CakeLaur - it's so good to hear work were supportive so you were able to take the time you needed. Sorry this month didn't work out but I will keep everything crossed next month is the lucky one! After reading everyone's responses on here i'm going to worry far less about other people's judgements and focus on what is best for us.
@Claire138 thank you Claire. Since I was last on here i'm feeling more positive about things. Feeling more like my old self and looking forward to the future. We've only told close friends, family and a couple of people at work too. Thanks for the advice. We've spoken a lot and focusing on ourselves and we want to do. Trying to forget about what anyone else will think.
@kingy2910 thank you for your words. They definitely have given me comfort and sounds we like are in same position as you. We also didn't tell anyone about the pregnancy but had to about the MC. We are just seeing what happens. I checked with the miscarriage association and theres no medical reason to have to wait for your first AF so we aren't using protection either and just going to see what happens. You're so brave for standing up to that women. Maybe she will think twice before questioning. It annoyed me before I was pregnant people questioning as if it's their business and now i'm dreading them coming up. People are so nosey and don't think about what people could be going through. Well done you for putting her in her place.
@Boboelephant that is so good to hear! All the messages on here have given me the boost to do what we want to do and that's to try straight away. I'm so relived other people have done that too. I didn't realise your super fertile for 3 months?! Wow! Good luck.
Big good luck to everyone! Come on March, we want BFPs!
