Woop woop wombat!

Yes mummya, I'll change them if I get on a PC today

YAY!!!!!!!!!!! Go, WombatBean !!!!!

Hi Ladies

You all seem very friendly on here and I was wondering if I could join you?

I found out I'd lost my baby on 23 Dec. I had an Erpoc on 30 Dec and now feel ready to start TTC.

There's something comforting about talking to others who are TTC after miscarriage.

I'm actually hoping I'll be one of the lucky ones and get pg straight away, although it took 3 months to conceive DD and my last pg.

As I've only recently had Erpoc I don't know what cycle I'm on and so don't know when to do a test. My UCL before miscarriage was 34 days!

Hooooorrrrraaaayyyyy Wombat - excellent news!

Thanks for the info on temps, I had in my head that 37 was normal for some reason. Only tracked it for 3 days. Don't ov every cycle and I'm currently on day 37 (UCL 29) so guess that could all tie up. Have signed up to FF and been reading and inputting data. If I've done it right it should be here.

MummyA I think we're all guilty of that, so don't beat yourself up. x

Thanks, Chloe, I can't understand why we aren't being monitored yet others have 3 scans a month plus bloods. Postcodes I guess

WOMBAT BEAN!

Fabulous news missus, am DELIGHTED for you

Now ffs allow yourself one day at least of being stress-free

MummyA step away from the peesticks! You know it's wrong!

but i want to know now!!!!!!!!

[bgrin]

Just nipping in to do a whoop for Wombat Bean!!! My hospital don't measure heart rate before 12 weeks, only tell you if it looks 'normal' or not

Will you now wait until 12 week scan?

hi cep just seen your chart, I retract my statement about having ov'd! Your explanation seems more reasonable, I guess you will just have to watch and wait.

xposted as always WELLDONE WOMBAT so pleased for you.

mummya i can't slap you cause i'd have to slap myself, so did i today even though i think af is coming

i've been thinking about my cycle and looking at my chart here i think i actually ov'd on cd12 which would be about right on my previous shortest cycle of 24days. When i was temping pre last pg i was consistantly 96.8 which i started off with on my first temp before it went up to 97.odd which would mean that i'd be due on monday so the slight cramps and bleeding will be af related.

wombat you home yet hon?

HOORAY FOR WOMBAT BEAN !!!!!

Oh phew phew phew!!! Nice one wombat, enjoy that relief!!! xxx

On phone so will do proper catch up later but just to let you know Wombat Bean measures 7+3 with a hb of 160 bpm!!

Never felt so shocked and relieved! Xxx

morning!

cep dont worry about asking the same questions, the knowledge must be passed on! (in a few weeks, you will be telling other women how to do it ) I think if you have got your first temp jump may have just ovulated. Its not unusual to get a bit of blood at the time because the drop in estrogen can cause a bit of lining to shed. I may be wrong, but if you get two more high temps in a row, FF will mark the red lines.

lily have you done the free fertility course on FF? Its a great way to learn about charting. If you havent signed up already, click on a link to someone elses chart, and sign up from there, that way you both get 5 free VIP days. 36, could be low- pre-ov temps but its different for everyone, you really need to do it for a month or two to find out what your pre-ov temp usually is. Hope you can get monitoring sorted.

collie we call the first cycle after mc/erpc WTF because nothing seems to be normal and anything can happen!

knitter your letter story is very inspiring. I have thought about doing something similar several times but always chickened out. Can I ask was your counsellor a specialist in mc's?

wombat thinking of you xxxx

YRMOTB my stats are OK now. no one else has said anything, so shall we just change yours?

somebody slap me with a large wet fish, I just tested at 9DPO (BFN)

Hi - not a hope I can keep up with you all but just wanted to pop in and say mousebacon so sorry for your loss. Life is so unfair at times. I hope you have lots of RL support to help you through this difficult time.

Emoo like your chart! Fingers x'd for you.

All ok here, just watching the days slowly tick by and hoping for the best.

Just a quick post from work to let mouse and wombat know I'm thinking of them.

mouse - hope you're doing ok x

wombat I was kind of hoping to see an update but realised that unless you were actually planning on posting from the scan room, that's unlikely. Hope it's been a good one x

Hello lovely ladies!

Mouse I am so, so sorry to hear your sad news. I am so sorry that you have to go through this all again. ((hugs))

Hello to collie

wombat good luck for today.

lily my average temp before ovulation is between 36.0 and 36.2 ish. Post-ov is between 36.4 and 36.8. It's all a bit of a muddle until you get a pattern over time, really.

cep I promise you, it does get easier to see newborns, be happy for friends, get involved in baby talk. Even before you get the BFP you're looking for. It really does take time. I was distraught when my lovely sil got pg 1st cycle after suffering a miscarriage at the same time as me, but it is lovely seeing her now. I'm only ever slightly envious, even as my age gap between dc creeps towards 5 years.

I'm a bit confuddled by the list, mummya. I should be on cd3, what should you be on, does it all look right to you?

&knitter glad you were able to raise some concerns withg the hospital, and i'm very glad you got a decent response with them. If it can help to ease the pain somewhat, then it can only be a good thing.

emoo Nice looking chart!

I'm gonna start my SMEP on day 10, seeing as I ov silly late. I'm gonna be knackered! Yes, izz am gonna try with the ov sticks, only once in the pm, and also temp, and see how it goes, God, we're going to be knackered

dachs good news for scan, what concerns were you wanting to discuss?

Hows all the updiffed? sick as dogs and sore as hell, I hope?

Off to finish the housework, take ds to the park with his bike, no stabilisers, I'm a v proud mummy, and then back here to make tea. The joys of a day off, hey!

Twitter good for you for putting in a complaint - clearly it needed to be done and things will never change unless people do what you've done. Rotten that you had such lousy treatment though :(

Collie welcome :) Dip in and out as you want to; ask any questions you like, no matter how daft you may think they are. Oh, and we do a good line in ranting and venting too :)

Wombat thinking of you today, good luck xx

Mouse hope all goes well for you today too xx

Shiny new thread! May it bring a positive tidal wave of bfps :)

collie it is a very fast moving thread. you tend to get a bit addicted if you're not careful. I seem to be on here most of the time at the mo. It can be difficult keeping up and unfortunately you can miss peoples posts. just use it as is best for you. The ladies on here are amazingly informative, and so very helpful and lovely.

Thanks Chloe, i have been reading that but i didn't think that made sense.

I don't know who you ladies keep up with this thread! I'm supposed to be working from home, but can't help keep taking a peek as its all really helpful!

wombat you will be fine lovely, best of luck xxxxx

Forgot to say collie, if you have a look above the messages there is an acronyms list which will help you when using mumsnet (mn) as lots of people abbreviate lots of things! you get used to it.

Lily - yep I am also in thr group of no care throughout the Clomid. However, if you want to push for this then I think you should contact your consultant/secretary as when I rang about side effects the gp advised me to contact the consultant.

WTF means 'what the fuck' collie

emoo glad to know it's obvious when it happens then. [bgrin] i'm just being impatient, i know that and i know it must be bugging people me going over similar things all the time. Once this first cycle's over and i can chart a full cycle i'll be much better honest.

Morning all, thanks for wecloming me.

Hadrian so sorry for your loss too. How are you feeling? Has your cycle retured to normal yet?

I just don't know whats going on with mine. I beld for 2 weeks after my m/c then had over a week of EWCM, then nothing for about 5 days, now more EWCM. Still no AF, although my UCL is 40 days. No idea where i am in the cycle though its all very frustrating.

My BBT thermom arrived today though so once i've figured that out it might help??

Emoo, whats WTF? Hope you don't mind me asking? xx
