I get knocked down, but I'll get knocked up again, cos you're never gonna keep me down... The big fat posifrickintivity thread for people TTC after MC.

That sounds so frustrating nearly & mrsE. Hope things head back to normal for you both soon or better still the lack of AF is due to a BFP being on the horizon.
Sorry things are so crazy for you saggy you must wonder what's going on.
I'm on cd 7 of cycle 1 so not sure what to expect but hoping it will be reasonably normal & will probably use opks to see what's happening.
Sorry to see more & more of us in this boat. Nice we can support each other though.
It's hard with all the other pregnancy announcements. We just heard some friends due when I should have been. Very happy for them but somehow makes me sadder that it's not us too. Would have been lovely to be having babies at same time & suspect I'll always feel we should have a child the same age as theirs. DH doesn't get that.
Oh well. Just keeping fingers crossed we might get a sticky BFP soon.
Sorry can't remember who said they found DTD not great straight after mc. It took me a while to get back there too. Just time really but did find the first time a bit emotional. (DH didn't get that either!)
Hope next week brings us some posifrickintivity.

Feeling your pain 'nearly' I'm not as far on as you 8 weeks today since op, but miserable with no AF yet and still a BFN.

Friend at works wife is due the same day as i would have been, still trying to persuade him he doesn't have to keep it all quiet for my sake, but i am glad he's not bubbling too much.

There's a lot of new names on her since i last dropped in, more heart ache out there.

so sprinkling some baby dust, but in reality would be almost as happy if af arrived!!

Hi all, thought I would check in to see if there are any BFP's to cheer me up.
Still no Af or BFP for me. That's 11 weeks now since D&C. GP was useless re lack of af and conceiving. I did get bloods taken which have shown that I'm anaemic.

To add to the grump the lovely girl across the road has a very gorgeous baby bump and every time I see her I am . I try not to be but she's due around the time I should have been and its just rubbish.

Right there with you thunder.

Sorry to hear AF is mucking you around saggy. Mine have been odd too post mc. Plus I've started getting really bad period pain which I've never really had before (had pain, but nothing like this).

Sorry you've been feeling run down missp, but yay to feeling better.

Welcome to all the new people, sorry you have to be here though.

I'm feeling a bit weary re. posifrickintivity today. Didn't get much dtd in over ovulation, and have scary uterus scan appointment Tues. I'm sure it'll just be a consultation rather than actual scan so I doubt I'll leave any the wiser but its still a bit nerve wracking.

To cheer myself up am staying in tonight with beer, Chinese and Eurovision. Yippee.

I have also noticed that we seem a bit more positive when we get some Friday BFPs. Who is due to poas this week? I'm not till the week after (anyone with me?).

Mmmmmmmm pies.....

Mmmmmmmmm cheese......

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm beer........

Well I'm not saying anything....

And I can't really anyway- should be renamed thundercatsaregrumpy right now! Got something to distract yourself with today?

Hi guys I have been quiet for a while as feeling a bit run down. Lots of early nights and feeling better

saggy your cycles r a little hard to predict, my cousin was same after mc despite being regular before. Took a few months and some acunpcture and back to normal. Yours will settle soon fingers crossed

Hello all newbies.

Well af due tomorrow m, first since mc at 5 weeks. Af after mc at 10 weeks came back normal cycle. No twinges yet. Maybe get to poas next Friday. :-))

DP and I are off for a romantic night away on Tuesday. Can't wait and much needed. Pity I won't be ovulating.!!! Must plan better.

Oh pants saggy that is crap. Weren't they usually long cycles in the past? And are you sure it's af?

Hi rainbow and well done for getting back on the horse so to speak. It's bound to be difficult so give yourself a bit of time and space.

Furtling is indeed a wonderful word!

More self indulgence from me I'm afraid. DB and DSIL told us they are expecting last night. So excited for them but had a good old weeping fest after they were gone. DH lovely though.

Good luck to all the DTDers!

Welcome oli and LJH sorry you find yourselves here.

Thanks for the reply baking I really hope you're right and this is going to be me getting back to normal cycles this month. Got my 2nd high this morning. How are you?

So no success this fertility Friday. Hopefully we are going to come back with a vengeance during the next weeks/ months!

Hi all. Checking for Friday news. I hope people have cheerful weekend plans

Saggy sounds very frustrating.

Emki in 2 pregnancies i haven't had clear OPK results - even the months when i did get pregnant. That said, my internet order of cb test sticks arrived today, still going to give it a go. Hope you have a good night out.

Trying to get enthusiastic about TTC. All I really want is to rewind a couple of weeks to being excited with a little baby on the way. Like everyone i guess.

DTD tonight for first time since MC and now feeling a bit flat. I felt like I should, nothings going to happen otherwise. DH would be hurt to know, but its hard to find babymaking a happy thing again.
And I assume pain after first DTD is just another common experience of the whole crappy business.

Self indulgent grumbling.

More furtling turtle posts needed!

Might be what I do .... Though they have worked in the past .... But I'll give it another few days xxx

Oh rubbish saggy it's so rubbish not being in control! I'm doing cb opk and still no OV detected - actually no lines at all on stick this morning. I'm on day 15 now - guessing its all taking longer as first AF Mc.

However we managed to dtd - going to again tonight and tomorrow as hoping ill OV soon - we're actually going out tomorrow night - have not done that in a long time! Feels strange to be back here again ... It was such a relief when I got pg in jan after first mc - but feeling good - moving on and must try to think that every month is another one closer to a bfp!

Happy weekends to all! Remember to post on Sunday something you're looking forward to next week xxxx

{{{waves}}} to newbies! Sorry you're here but this thread is great support xxxx

Liesl CBFM says high as soon as it sees oestrogen, then peak if it sees LH. If it misses ov then it will just say high for 20 sticks. I used to get high from day 6 or 7 and I normally ov about day 16, so it wouldn't surprise me if you're on track for a normal ( for you ) cycle

Evening all, I found this thread this morning and was so relieved to read what I've been feeling since my first miscarriage (first pregnancy) and ERPC at the end of February. It's been a properly crappy year and I'm up for a lot of positfrickintivity, I can tell you. My sister in law is about to pop and my best mate has just got pregnant with her second and whilst we only started trying in December, I'm starting to feel downhearted and slightly obsessed, which in turn makes me feel guilty for obsessing about it. After all, how many times have I been told (by pregnant people/mums) "don't think about it and it'll just happen"?!
Anyway, thank you all for the support you have inadvertently given me and I hope you don't mind me gate crashing your chat. Whilst I wouldn't wish this state of being on anyone, it's of such a huge comfort to read of others in a similar position.
DH off abroad with work half way through what will probably be my OV window this month, so I'm feeling thoroughly cheated. At least it's Friday, I guess!

May I join the posifrickintivity thread? I miscarried at twelve weeks over the Easter weekend and had ERPC on 3rd April. All pretty miserable. Longing to be pregnant again, but was advised to wait a cycle before trying again. Ignored that advice and as AF hasn't visited since the ERPC was going to POAS this morning. But my old friend arrived this morning. Mixed feelings - happy that everything is working as it should; sad that I've got nothing to celebrate. Roll on June BFPs
everyone xx

Saggy same here WRT sex drive - although for some unknown reason I always get really horny when AF is due - it's the way I know she's due :)

My AF arrived 3 weeks after I'd stopped bleeding following ERPC, so logically I'm due AF/BFP on 2nd June however a few days after AF finished I had crazy bucketloads of EWCM so no idea if that was early ovulation or something left from AF - generally don't get any visible CM so not like anything I've ever experienced before! Anyone got any idea?

Good luck to anyone POAS today!

Oh wrong thread lol!

JBrd you are doing very well to get AF (or might be implantation) on CD27. We all know cycle 0 is a bit screwed up, at least you know you won't be waiting 7-9 weeks. I think emki up thread said the docs told her it could take up to 7 weeks for things to settle back down. It'd be such a blow to lost another two months. I think I ovulated on CD23, and we were on the same antenatal bus, so you are ahead atm . Think positive!
