TTC after MC - nice people in crap times, full of posifrickingtivity

Yep lots of people get pg quickly after mc.

itd I've heard of many who got pregnant quickly almost like it gives their body a hormonal kick start, in fact many of the midwives and Drs mentioned it.
But there are no firm rules to MC I got pregnant quickly but I'm now struggling to get pregnant again.

Oops!

Was trying to say its looking good! Sunday is fast approaching, you're nearly there! Well done.

tins hit blood test this week but I might put it back til next week actually. I'll have been on the meds 4 weeks next tues and from what I read this is a good point to get it checked (apparently 4-6 weeks is when it should have all kicked in). Sounds to me like yours is probably absolutely fine (it apparently fluctuates throughout the day even) but is worth keeping an eye on.

ltd hi, and sorry you're here. I had that urge too, hope you aren't with us too long.

Has anyone got pregnant easily following a miscarriage? I'm so worried about how long it took us to get pregnant in the first place.

Hi pink, l

ltd yes absolutely had a really strong need to be pregnant again, it actually felt a very primal reaction.

Gardenworm can I ask what happened about your TSH? Mine is 2.9, described as 'normal' by the receptionist, and I think yours was in the same ballpark. I will ask consultant next week but would be interested to know if you needed any further tests in the end.
thunder how long until yours gets rechecked now?

Hi LDT and of course you can join. I'm very sorry you are miscarrying, and I think it's a very normal reaction to want to TTC straight away - sort of righting a wrong to be pregnant again.
IBIP glad it is going ok so far, hope you get safely past your milestone at the weekend and have a good scan. Come back and tell us when it is all ok?

Thunder I am 7+2 now. Yes, speaking of anniversaries, this Sunday is the day to get past, that will be 8 weeks, where it all went tits up the first time.
Am planning a whole weekend of sitting and doing nothing!

Aly- is 1 week, 2 days and 13 hours til scan. Still terrified and convinced it is going wrong every day!

Yay for Friday poas-ers, I have everything crossed for you. (especially legs)

Can I join please, currently miscarrying and all I can think about is getting pregnant again. I should have had my first midwife appointment tomorrow and would have been 10 weeks. What a way to spend the easter weekend! Did anyone else feel like an intense need to conceive again? It took us nearly 2 years this time and I'm terrified it will take so long again.

Thanks Santa for the new thread. Baking hugs for those tough anniversaries. Sorry to hear lots of people have been feeling down. Hopefully the new thread brings lots of positivity and bfps.

I agree 28-29 is not old for a dc1 never mind a dc2!

I'm now on the 2 week wait and hoping to poas a week on Friday. Anyone else? Good luck to Zeux and Aly for bfps this week.

chocolate I know it rediclous I start believing them, then realise its them being out of touch not me. Plus almost all my bosses have been 40+ with at least one of their kids.

I'm actually the only (but one who has decided not to have children) one of my 15 female cousins who hasn't had a child, even my youngest cousin is due soon. I don't come from a scummy family but for some reason they reproduce young amd as easily as rabbits so I really do feel like a failure at times.

Funny how no one dares to say anything to the men, my DH is mid 40s no one is telling him to get a move on! Well apart from me during TTC week.

Evening all, lovely new thread - thanks Santa

Now who is being told that 28-29 is old! Hadn't even met DH til I was 30. Am staring 37 in the face (July) and it's not even occurred to me that I'm "old"

littlebairn sorry AF has got you, but heres hoping it's just a one off WTF cycle.
I'm having similar and just main a note of the timings in case they continue as will then take self to GP to get fobbed off

camomile I watched it last night, so glad it's finally back on helps busy the mind.
The temptation of thread peaking is hard. I actually went off MN for about 3 months but when I first came back I made the mistake of taking a peak. It's like those game shows "here is a look a what you could have won...."
When I feel the temptation I actually close the browser down and busy myself with something until the temptation goes away.

ooo - we have last nights new game of thrones recorded though

Afternoon all. Hope everyone is alright. Feel for everyone with either anniversaries coming up or pregnant friends who are presenting problems.

I'm a bit glum today too, but it is entirely my own fault as I felt the need to look at the September thread again. Don't know why I do it.

Grouch grouch grouch

I hope we see lots of BFPs this week. I'm not testing myself but like vicarious BFPs.

Hey everyone, great thread title

Hope this posifrickintivity carries thru to some BFPs on Friday!

Ooh I might just be tempted aly!!

zeu that's the same as me! Actually AF due monday.

I was going to wait until then, but in the spirit of posifrickentivity might will poas friday: so do it with me (on a cheapie)!!
rationale as follows:

1. no fish slapping (most important )
2. if bfn: won't be disappointed as it's too early (or so I will tell myself), and/or will become more mentally prepared for AF's arrival
3. if bfp: will be v, v nervous of chemical pregnancy, but would be nervous of bfp on any day really

Hello like the new thread title vg!

Sorry to those having sad times .

I'm in a bit of a quandary. Af due on Sunday. I don't want to poas before then, but don't want to wait until the following Friday either. Can I poas on Sunday without any fish slapping becoming due?

LittleBairn - I?m with you on the loosing weight front - we can do it!! I don?t want to give the Drs any reason not to listen to me properly about TTC and I know weight is the first thing they will see!!

I am feeling a lot more positive since my earlier post today - you ladies are so good at bringing out the posifrickintivity in me - love it!! x

I'll hold your hand aly as long as its not the one you're holding the stick with

This thread is starting out with some positive thoughts- I like it! I'm on cd 13 here and no smiley yet. Still ttc-ish although have blood test this week to monitor my levels so I think there's no chance til things get settled.

pink a big hug for you. How far along now? Guess 8 weeks is the milestone to get past? Thank you for hovering x

Thunder that actually makes sense, its helped me worry less and shush that voice in my head that whispers "your never going to have your own child..."

Baking there isn't much I can say to make you feel better, mile stone days are shit, but I'm thinking of you.

mummytotheark I get the nagging too a out age I'm only 28! But that is old in my family to be having your first and DH is mid 40's. So I also start worrying about it too. Then I read all the threads on here women having babies in their 40's times have changed, we will be fine.

I've decided one positive change I can make and in my control is too loose weight, I eat healthy but too late and eat more quick snacks than meals and try be more active. It will at least give the midwives less opportunities to make cat bum faces next time.

hello shiny new thread!

I was not very posifrickentive on my last post on the old thread. lucky it will be forgotten.
in a change of spirit, I will poas friday, and I will get a bfp .
anybody going to hold my hand?

hugs tins. pity we can't just "forget" thos sad anniversaries. maybe we should start a "burn our bras calendars" campaign .

mummy, 29 is nothing! whatcha worrying about girl?

pink how long do you have to wait now for scan?

Ah thanks thunder - I don?t feel like a spring chicken and their comment really got me worrying - thanks for your reassurance xx

I am going to try and throw some posifrickintivity towards becoming a bit healthier as I'm hoping that will help with the TTC and if I don?t fall pregnant at least I can show the doctors that I am really trying and they may be willing to listen to me a bit more. I would like to lose 2 stone so starting the couch to 5k this week and going to eat a bit better - although it is not easy when our fridge looks like something from Charlie and the chocolate factory - DS has enough chocolate to last until Christmas!! xx
