Aiming for August 2012 BFP!!

Good luck dexi I hope you get a bfp when you test!

We were just told that we could ttc again when we felt ready. It might be the wrong thing but it just feels right to ttc again straight away. I think this is helping me deal with what happened.

Hello ladies!

Somehow I had managed to hide this thread so just catching up now with a

Sorry to hear about your MC Woody after ours in June DH wanted to stick with the advice to wait for next AF before trying again. My cycle was best part of a week longer before AF arrived, have had signs that I've ovulated at the usual time this month so now am on 2ww.

Am now 6 DPO and counting down the days until AF due- am planning on waiting the full 14 days before testing just hoping the witch stays away.

Good luck all, I'll add to the list now

Winkle do you think it was the epo that effected your last cycle? Is there anything else it could be attributed to?
I'm currently on cd35, not that late I know but my longest cycle in a years worth of tracking was 32 and only twice, even last months cycle after mc was only 32 which I expected late do to late ov?

Doing the EOD method here too.

Altho only on cd3 so more waiiiiiiiiting for me.

Yeah, I'm trying eod this month too..... shagged like crazy last cycle and still no bfp.

Ok thanks. No they didn't ask me to do any tests or anything. They just said that I would probably only bleed for a couple more days and then was fine to ttc again.

Will just keep dtd regularly and I'll test once a week to see what happens.

It's hard woody and for the first few weeks it's all you can think about. Did the hospital not ask you to do a hpt test to confirm it was negative? I had natural mc, same sinareo as you really very bad bleeding on the Sunday lessend to normal af type bleed for 4/5 days then stoped I had a scan the Monday and was told it was clear but that I had to get a neg test before discharge just to make sure. We didnt dtd until I got a neg just because I didn't want to confuse one pg with another, I think the normal advice though is to take the test 2 wks after the mc so I'd maybe do it again then just to clarify it for your own mind x

Hi woody good news about the scan, sounds like you're doing all you're can in the circumstances..

Thanks kittykatsforever the scan last week showed that everything was gone and there was nothing left. I stopped bleeding last Friday and we've been dtd since Saturday. Think we'll just keep dtd every other day or so and I'll do a test once a week to see what happens. I guess I've just got to try and relax about it all!

Hi woody, aparently you won't ov until you get a negative pg test, I think the body still recognises that you are pg and therefore won't release an egg until your levels have droped to 5, hpt picks up from 10 upwards, likewise there is no point using opk until neg test as that will show + from the hormones aswell, not sure why but it does go + of you are pregnant, I know you are frustrated but time does ease it abit, have you stoped bleeding etc - I was advised not to dtd until then due to infection and they would not sign me off at hospital until I had a neg test incase ectopic or retained products, I still got a + at 10 days but a neg at 2 wks, I got a + smiley at 23 days that month which is very late for me so it obviously did take my body longer to start thinking to ov again, everyone whose mc understands that pans of desperation to be of again abd while I wouldn't say don't try, of it doesn't work first time all if us have noticed really heavy periods after so bodies do take a little time to repair, just dtd and if it's ment to be it will happen, if you want to try opk just to see what's going on wait until you have a neg test first x

Thank you sunshineoutdoors and whenshewasbadshewashorrid I think you are right - just keep dtd and seeing what happens.

woody I just wanted to say the same as sunshine. I don't know but just wanted to say I am really sorry about the mc. It must be so frustrating and of course you want to ttc ASAP.

I thInk there are some ladies on this thread who have been in the same situation, hopefully they can offer some advice. Take care if yourself.

Hi woody I'm sorry I don't have the answer to your q but didn't want to read and run. It's understandable that you're feeling down. I say don't stop thinking that you're ttc.... even if things don't happen this cycle it may not be due to m/c. You never know, people can get pg at the most surprising times, against the odds, but you can't get pg if you're not dtd.

Give yourself some slack and be nice to yourself... I imagine it will take time to begin to heal emotionally and mentally from a m/c. Any treats you can have tonight?

Hi everyone

Hope you've all been enjoying the sunshine!

I don't use ov sticks - would you recommend them?

Did a pg test today since the mc last week and it was positive. I'm not sure if it means that I won't be able to even have a chance at getting pg until it goes negative. Feeling really down about it. I just want to be able to ttc again asap.

Oh and opk's ask you how long your cycle is, tells you what day to start poas then you stop when you get a +ive

Thanks sunshine, think I may be on your cycle aswell, 2 nd since mc/ stoped bf and I'm on cd34 longest yet for me abd still no sign yet but a bfn
It's so frustrating!!!

Celsius here too. The app I use lets you choose either though.

hi newbie

mine is in celsius.

whenshewas I don't know how accurate mine will be as I often forget and get up to the toilet before I take temp. But at the mo it has sometimes been lower on these days than on other days when I've done it properly. Hopefully at some point the temp will raise and not go down - I think I should be able to spot this even though some days might not be so accurate.

I don't know much about opks - is it poas when you think ov may be a few days away and keep going until they say you have ovulated?

aufanie (great name by the way). You are lucky with your periods coming back so soon. I had to stop bf at 13 months as my periods were refusing to return even though dd was down to just one feed at 4pm.

sunshine good plan monitoring your temps. Would love to do that myself but dd is a rubbish sleeper so I don't think I could do it accurately, I am relying on opks instead.

Hi aufaniae

I had to stop bf before my periods came back, but afaik, like kitty says once periods come you're ok.

Although I have heard you can have a period without ovulating? I've ignored that though as that thought is too depressing.

If you're having fairly regular cycles I expect you're fine. are you temping or opk-ing?

kitty I've only had two periods so one measurable cycle since stopping bf and as I think you know that was a week longer than I expected. Temping this month so I have more of a clue when ov has happened

3.5 lol I thought I'd done my bit when I stoped at 9 months but I don't think my periods would have returned for a long time without as I'd only been doing 1 aday for 6 wks and still no af, it was nice not thinking about it and I may go for longer next time. We wanted to TTC though
