Just MC and ready to try again? Pack your cake, wine and tightie whities and join us for more ranting, weeping and most of all laughing! All welcome! (Part 12)

Thanks ladies the epu checked me all is away saying that they thought it was a blood clot left and it was baby passed her yesterday though so i think i will wait till bleeding stopped and take a pregnancy test to check its negative it took me 2yrs to conceive this time after my DS so doubt it would be too quick anyhow. thanks for all the support i too think its so sad how common m/c is :(

oils i think the guidance to wait until after one period is to make it easier to date your baby. But I suppose its important to be 100% sure everything is 'back to normal' before you do start ttc. Waiting until your next cycle would be the best way to do this, but i know i didn't want to. If you want to ttc before i would say make sure your epu confirms your mc is complete and take a pg test in about a week to check all your pg hormones are gone. (I got that advice of the lovely ladies here)

It is possible to have a healthy pg straight after mc without a period - my friend gave birth last month to healthy baby girl after doing just that.

Take care xxx

I am just taking each day as it comes still bleeding at the moment but it has slowed a bit more like a period sorry if TMI, is it safe to start ttc straight after the bleeding one doc at the hospital said i could try as soon as the bleeding has stopped and another said after the first period, bit confused :/

Collie I'm ignoring the chocolate thing too. I'll switch to milk chocolate since its contains less caffeine

Just had a lurk on the freak out thread and she's had her scan. Looks like orange had good news , although not everyone

Welcome Olismum

Does anyone know what time Orange's scan was?

Oils so sorry for your loss, tuesday is so very recent so i hope you are ok and are doing nice things for youself to make it as easy as possible. Its a sad and horrible thing to happen, it makes me so sad to think how so many women go through this. Glad you've found your way to this thread though, everyone is amazing and i've had so much support.((Big hugs)) for you.

Ninu WHAT????? No Chocolate??????? Nooooooo who says that????? tcan't be right, it just CAN'T!!!!!! I just don't accept it!!

Hi olismum, I recognise you from the October Pregnancy thread. I'm so sorry you've had to join this thread , but you've done the right thing, everyone is lovely here, and very supportive.

My reaction has been the same as yours- I just want to ttc straight away. I haven't quite decided if I'll wait for my first cycle before trying- but like you, my body has to finish doing its stuff.

Hi olismum, so sorry to hear your news. you must still be in shock, hope you get as much TLC and support as you need in RL. ((hugs))

I've only been here a week but these ladies have really helped me since my m/c in Jan. You will get as much support and advice as you need from here.

You might find the info on these two websites helpful to you, DH, family etc. They have certainly helped some of us.

www.miscarriagesupport.org.nz/
pregnancyloss.info/

There is good advice about TTC again on these sites too.

Thinking of you x

I was wondering if i could join i m/c on tuesday but all i know is i want to ttc straight away(when body is finished doing its stuff) It was my first m/c.

Chloe - just reminding you that I was a total swot with Clomid for five months doing it all by the book etc, and stressing out each month (a bit worse each time) because still getting BFN. The #5 negative (I was 4 days late) made a stain on the wall where I threw it across the room . Think that made DH realise how close I was to loosing the plot.

Needless to say by round 6 when I'd totally given up hope I'd ever be a mum without IVF it worked. Hoping that my give up attitude works now I've got to start all over again. Message = try and relax and look after yourself and forget you are on evil drugs and just enjoy RL.

Sorry if I sounded like fascist earlier on. After 36 months+ of ttc you do anything, even regrettably give up and one day work a week despite losing equiv on mp!!

Methinks i should've been here for support a long time ago.

End of me time sorry ladies.

Hope all well with you all in RL.

Good luck with SS Collie and Mouse hope your week has improved??

There is no way I can give up chocolate!!!!! I only have one or two small blocks a day- but I treasure every last moment that it's in my mouth. I also really enjoy one coffee in the morning when I get into the office. I've already cut down from having 2 or 3 coffees a day & at least 1 cup of tea to 1 coffee, and I occasionally have a cup of tea.

I think I'll cut out completely unless its a special occasion. I found it surprisingly easy to give it up when I was pregnant (albeit only a few weeks), I didn't feel my social life suffered at all. I just kept a drink in my hands at all times, and hardly even noticed it wasn't alcohol. Things get a little uncomfortable when it comes to rounds though- people just don't understand if you're not drinking. We're such a boozy society aren't we?

Hell yes; the odd glass of vino is GOOD for you, I reckon. Otherwise you will quickly go nuts.

re the caffine and tea thing, i (reluctantly) conceede that to give your self the best chance is to knock it on the head but we all need a little light relief so i guess save it for when you really need it ! Im a fully paid up member of the diet coke and hot chocolate club and sadly i really dont like to drink other stuff but i am really trying with the water in leiu of diet coke.....

Thanks blackkat that's the article I'd read which made me ask!! You can't do bloody anything! I have plans this weekend which involves wii sing star so I def need for that as I'm tone deaf! Maybe I'll give it a miss for a couple of weekends after that. Don't think I can do that long term if we don't get pg quick though!

chloe god sorry I aged you so much!! How rude!! I did that to my aunt once at her 50th... Wrote happy 60th in her card!!! Lol I'd read caffeine was bad when pg. I've moved to herbals and decaf which is ok but get organic as the chemicals they use in non organic can be more harmful. It's quiet expensive for organic decaf... I paid £2.50 for 40, but I couldn't live without tea!

Yes Collie you did age me 10 years!

After reading that article about alcohol etc I have just explained to dh the potential dangers of caffeine, he wants me to find a counter argument for caffeine but I can not find anywhere that suggests it's ok in ttc. We always knew it wasn't good in pg. He has agreed to quit and also has agreed to stop drinking (This goes for me too) apart from on special occassions, ie. my 30th birthday Blackkat - you just gave me a kick up the arse really. This will be my 2nd month of Clomid so I need to do everything I can now.

Right Ninu - I will suggest Malta as our next holiday!

Everything in moderation... for you and your dh/dp. I spent 5 cycles ttc; I'd have been locked up if I hadn't had a wee drink every now and then

Just re-read my last post and to see that I sound like a total lush pre TTC.

Didn't drink that much honest, just a couple of light ales officer

, sadly = bad
Read the following
www.marilynglenville.com/infertility.htm

However, I do agree that without it's sometimes bloody hard to cope with RL and pesky TTC.

I didn't drink at all when I was on Clomid and in the 3 months before, consequently lost weight, spent less(!) and got a BFP.

Other good side effects were slept better, could get up earlier, and skin was x100 better.

I'll be knocking it on the head next week again. Mind you I'm a total light weight now anyway (sighs wistfully, remembering pre TTC exciting lifestyle)

I have a ttc and question. I know that (or other such enjoyable beverages ) are best avoided if ttc. I read it can reduce your chances of concieving by half. But giving up the before a bfp really is easier said than done... I need a life!!!

So I guess I just wondered what peoples views on it are? Is it ok maybe to cut out (I love this emoticon) at key times? If so, when are those times? Before ov to ensure eggs are of good solid genes! After ov, so implantation is easier and you don't harm early development? Or both?

I've got a brewery tour planned next weekend with work, just before I expect to ov. Wondering if should not be drinking?!

Hi mummya hope you're ok? Did you manage to get your wedding rings back? What did you do re the cleaner in the end? I think that invasion of privacy and trust is awful.

Moved me up to the ttc list now AF is here. LILI I can't see you on this, did you want to add your stats now your AF arrived?

Hello,

Chloe so pleased AF has turned up and that you are able to relax a little now. The bedroom sounds lovely - can you post px?

Hello to babypops sorry to hear of your loss, lots of good advice and laughs here.

Great diet advice in Marilyn Glenville www.marilynglenville.com/ (less bossy than Zita West!)

Struggling to keep up at the moment, will try harder tomorrow
