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

My little gloomy corner is welcoming you with open arms this afternoon meliesmum It comes fully equipped with tissues, warm shoulders to lean on and great big hugs and understanding.

meliesmummy · 18/03/2011 12:18

Congratulations harrassed!

Chloe can we be down together? I'm not sure why but in the last few hours I've started to feel really teary. I can't put my finger on why, it's prob just hormones / baby talk at the library this morning / the fact that no one in rl asks how I am anymore. It's like no one remembers apart from my friend who mc last year, plus ive got that wedding to get thru tomorrow, I really don't feel up to it. Sorry for ranting :(

Chloe55 · 18/03/2011 11:52

harrassed Don't be daft, believe me, when I get my BFP I will most def be doing a 'me me me' post!! This thread is for our ups as well as our downs and I am really am pleased at all the ups today.

harassedinherpants · 18/03/2011 11:48

(((())))) for Chloe - sorry you're feeling sad and for doing a "me, me, me" post. I think it's perfectly normal to feel sad when someone else gets a bfp. You want to be happy for them, but there's that little niggle.

I've just my very close friend who's due at the same time I would have been.

Collie will have a look at the freak out thread. Scary!!

cep · 18/03/2011 11:37

no worries, there's also the nov 2011 thread in antenatal a few in there had m/c's around the same time as us so know what it's like. i hope you enjoy your lads Wink Grin

Collie2 · 18/03/2011 11:30

chloe I'm sorry you feel down, but cep is spot on with everything she has said. I was convinced it was your month last month, right from the start. Was [shocked] and [gutted] at your bfn. In fact have wondered if it just failed.... ?? So sorry sweetie, you are just lovely and deserve it so much. Don't feel bad for being sad at bfp's even I have dent that way in occassions, and I was very aware how it might make people with recent bfns feel, when I posted. I'm stckibg around until you get yours, so you had best get one quick! Grin xxxx

Yay to harassed made up for you hun. Are you going to join the freak out room? I could do with some hand holding!

cep I know it's silly but I'm happy to stay where I am for now. Haven't hot any clearblue digis and relucant to buy more as have lads of cheapies at home!!

congratulations hihp great news.

What a couple of days

Youremindmeofthebabe · 18/03/2011 11:27

Congratulations all new BFP'ers, banana harassed collieSmile

Hugs for Chloe.

harassedinherpants · 18/03/2011 11:20

Thanks Chloe, nearly paid for vip FF last night actually, glad I held off Grin.

Chloe55 · 18/03/2011 11:18

Great news harrassed Grin

harassedinherpants · 18/03/2011 11:15

Morning ladies,

So I tested again today......and have line. Ok two!! Was very Shock and then very Grin, and just quietly freaking out in the corner.

I know it's stupid but have booked a doctors appointment. I know he won't do anything, but I have a couple of questions from my mmc that I need answering to ease my mind slightly!!

cep · 18/03/2011 10:53

no the non vip isn't too good, but it's so expensive to pay for, for what it is.

I never knew until i started ttc no 2 how difficult it could be. no1 was so quick, was really shocked when i didn't get pg as quickly this time and then only to lose it. it quickly becomes very stressful and a bit like planning a military operation.

Chloe55 · 18/03/2011 10:42

Thanks cep It actually does help that other's thought I might get a BFPlast cycle - makes me feel a little less like I am going insane. I haven't renewed my FF and I don't like the non-vip rubbishy graph so think I am gonna scrap it this month as it just teased me last month.

Yes, I think Reggie does it on a sunday.

cep · 18/03/2011 10:16

i know it's such a nice song. now madonna - take a bow - 1994 that came out.

I thought you sounded a bit down. Please don't worry about sounding selfish and childish, don't add guilt to what you're already feeling. It's normal to want it to be you, don't try to pretend otherwise. The bfp's know you're happy for them, it's just a complicated time. I know it doesn't help but i think we were all Shock at the bfn. You will get there hon.

I'm sorry if that all sounded patronising, i just never know what to say to "cheer" people up.

Does radio 1 still do the top 40? omg baby come back.... although i recorded over it....with crap Hmm

Chloe55 · 18/03/2011 10:07

I was just singing along to your song cep Blush As it happens though I have had a little cry today reading all the pg announcements and thinking why isn't it me? I was so sure last cycle, I had all the signs and was actually Shock at the BFN and so Angry at another god awful AF Sad I am sorry to all the BFPs at my attitude, I know I am being selfish and childish I just want it to be my turn Sad

CD7 for me though and I plan on having a ridiculous amount of swi this month. Starting tonight...

cep · 18/03/2011 10:00

yay for izzy if you're lurking congratulations.

it's like i'm sat back in my dorm at school. (only i didn't have a laptop then. Grin Are you alright chloe ?

cep · 18/03/2011 09:59

collie i didn't know if you'd want me to move you yet. let me know.
banana same for you let me know when you've confirmed with re-test

cep · 18/03/2011 09:52

mel what's my excuse for the iced and chelsea buns i bought today as well?? Grin i don't know how soon after ov it returns to low, you may have done but i'd dtd while high and definately if you have fertile cm.

omg one of my favourite songs has come on, "runaway train never going back, wrong way on a one way track"

meliesmummy · 18/03/2011 09:43

Cep that may be a pg thing - I found that sherbet lemons helped with my morning sickness. There's no excuse for my monster munch craving though!

So I haven't ovulated yet?! My opk was really faint yesterday. I thought I probably had on weds. We dtd last night though so I hope some little swimmers survived!

cep · 18/03/2011 09:30

mel if i remember correctly it's a sign that you're fertile. after ov it "should" return to being low and hard. i didn't know you could get beef still i only ever see the pickled onion or fiery ones. (i'm dipdabbing while i type. Grin)
