If you are TTC after Miscarriage (or waiting to start trying again), this is the place to be. This thread is full of lots of lovely ladies on the post MC rollercoster and is full of support and advice from people who have been through it, and know what you are going through.
Jump on board and join in the for some laughter, crying or even the odd ranting (whatever you need). There?s lots of Wine, Brew (caffeine free of course Smile ) and chocolate, and more importantly, friendly ?ears?.

The thread moves fast so bob in and out as you please. Don?t be afraid to ask anything ? nothing is ever TMI!!!

If you want to join the stats, just add yourself to the list:

WTTC = waiting to TTC
UCL = usual cycle length
WFT cycle = what the f*uck cycle (cycle after mc but before first AF)
For more accronyms see here

Good luck to all ? The last one was a lucky thread for lots of people so here's hoping for lots more healthy, sticky BFPs by the end of the thread Grin

This is the previous thread

Stats to follow.

this temperature taking lark is stopping me having a lie-in on my days off. Sad didn't go to the gym last night, way too late getting out of work so might drag my sorry arse there this morning

ninu nice to have you back, gosh you do work long hrs what do you do?

blackkat I work in public sector too. Pct at mo and LA previously. It's sh*t isn't. Hope it's not too bad for you.

I can't get over how quickly this thread moves, I've only been gone 1 day and you ladies have filled 5 pages!

I'll catch up with everyone's posts tomorrow, but just wanted to thank everyone for your messages. It hasn't really sunk in yet...I'm taking it day by day, and will set myself targets. 1st is due date of AF which is Sunday.

2nd step is to stop working ridiculous hours. Didn't get off to the best start with 2 nights not arriving home/hotel before midnight.

Off to bed now, have a doctors appointment tomorrow to check a dodgy looking mole, but will mention bfp. I'm a bit scared of admitting I'm in my wtf cycle.

Blackkat · 10/03/2011 21:49

Hey Collie xpost, thanks for thinking of me enjoy your day off xx

Blackkat · 10/03/2011 21:48

melies crosshairs are the lines on ff that mark your ovulation day and cover line. See mine - the red lines. Vertical line is the ov day and the horizontal line is the coverline which helps you see your b4 and after ovulation temperatures.,

OP posts:
meliesmummy · 10/03/2011 21:16

Oh yeah, can someone please tell me WTF crosshairs are? I asked earlier but this thread moves so fast my post must have got lost...

meliesmummy · 10/03/2011 21:14

I didnt spend much...we don't have any pets (except some fish in the pond that were there when we bought the house and until today we have never fed - bought some food today so dd could feed them but they showed no interest - they probably had no idea what we were doing!)! We only went bcos she likes looking at the rabbits in there.

Brooke your story about the door sounds like something I would do! It's sad about your house, that must have been a hard decision x

olismum23 · 10/03/2011 21:07

Im so fed up of my nausea i just dont understand im sick im crying at everything and BFN today WTF???

Thanks for the compliments! Just fancied a change.

Sorry about your pain and black eye brooke

Melies I am banned from pet shops spend to much Grin

brooke89 · 10/03/2011 20:35

Hope you all have a lovely evening ladies, my long post is oveeeer! xx

meliesmummy · 10/03/2011 19:57

Cool hair olis!

Enjoy the wine skit

Any news mouse or really useful?

We had a lovely time this afternoon going to look at the animals in pets at home, we bought a bird feeder and house for the garden.

skitoo · 10/03/2011 19:38

God hope I don't mess this up, being my first day at a new school and all that - going to put myself on the TTC list as I jumped straight back on the crazy rollercoaster as soon as I stopped bleeding.

Chloe sounds like MrC has got all bases covered, sounds delish, my DH is just on his way home with a banging headache after his night on the town last night Hmm

Sorry for your BFN's Lili and Olis, fingers crossed the witch doesn't arrive.

I decided to sack off the gym and have just sat down to Crufts and Wine Smile Smile

Here goes, sorry if I mess it up..

olismum23 · 10/03/2011 18:23

I feel sick as a dog yet another BFN with a sensitive test its utterly weird so i give up Sorry you had a BFN Lili

That sounds like a perfect evening Chloe I cant do any such thing weighed myself today and i have put on a stone since i m/c!!!!!!!!! 4 weeks 1 stone!!!!!!!!!!!
I am not a healthy weight to start with 5'7 and a size 18 which is now a 20!!!!

This is my plan im not going to try try next month still have loads of SFF Grin but i am going to lose the stone i put on and get my arse back to the gym!!

cep · 10/03/2011 18:03

lili am so sorry you had a bfn. fx af doesn't arrive.

cep · 10/03/2011 17:59

yay for dh chloe enjoy your evening hon.

collie nah forget the gym go have some Wine

LILI80 · 10/03/2011 17:58

Another day, another BFN Sad

Thanks for your post collie have to say I really can't see it happening this month. All feelings of being pg have gone and instead I've got a banging headache, cramps and feel like screaming!! Talk about major PMT!

I'm pretty sure AF is just around the corner so feeling really crap and disheartned at the moment, would normally reply to all your posts but I'm wallowing too much in self pity! Sad Sad

Collie2 · 10/03/2011 17:36

Good work MrChloe i think thats really nice of him. Glad to hear you're being well looked after chloe . How are you feeling after your shower? How are you feeling feeling pysically?

mumtum Sad that AF finally came. Lots of Wine and [chocolate emoticon] for you too.

I'm just debating going to the gym but still at work, lots to catch up on after being so unmotivated at the begining of the week - that'll teach me. Have the day off tomorrow so technically its Friday, which should surely warrant a Wine for me too. After all i don't even know if i bloody well ovulated. Smile

OP posts:
Chloe55 · 10/03/2011 17:22

It depends on you really skitoo - Prob best to put yourself in the WTTC list and then as soon as you feel ready then jump on board the TTC list, it doesn't matter if you don't know your cd (cycle day), you could just leave it blank.

Dh is on his way home which is the first time he will be in before 6pm in donkey's! And he is bearing gifts in the way of wine, chinese and chocolate Smile

skitoo · 10/03/2011 15:36

Thanks for all the welcomes. Can I join the list, should I be still in the WTTC as in my WTF cycle?

cep · 10/03/2011 14:40

chloe sorry you're still feeling really low. do something nice for yourself today. (with a lot of wine)

mumtum sorry af here fx next month will be successful for you.

welcome skitoo and harassed sorry you have to be here but the ladies are lovely and very supportive.

meliesmummy · 10/03/2011 14:25

chloe sorry you are having such a bad day, I wish there was some magic way to make it better but all I can suggest is wine and that chocolate, hope you find it x

mumtum sorry the witch got you, good luck for next month x

I'm getting there thanks harassed, my body is all over the place tho, pmt 5 days into period, im spotty like a teenager and spotting seems never ending!

MumTumWanted · 10/03/2011 14:23

chloe lets hope your right about the dress ! im sorry you are having a down day to, i feel very fed up and need the chocolate and Wine to. Just text my OH telling him the witch has arrived and that im fed up and he responded never mind that means we get a whole nother month of shagging why is that men can look it at all so flippantly ???? it drives me mad....... am so glad i chose to work from home today the amount of times i have burst into tears the office would have thought id gone mad...

Youremindmeofthebabe · 10/03/2011 14:12

Just popping in to check on chloe. Sorry you're down, my love. My dp too says every month, "there's no point getting upset, it'll happen when it happens" which is just aargh and quite irritating. Especially when I'm pmt-y. anyway, hope you're ok.

Chloe55 · 10/03/2011 13:53

Oh I am sorry mumtum You know you will fall pg now though and that dress won't fit don't you Wink
