TTC after miscarriage thread #4

Evening all.

I've just done a Clearblue Digital and it says pregnant, 1-2 weeks. Phew. Still need to wait until Tuesday to have rising HCG confirmed by blood tests but the Clearblue has calmed today's nerves at least.

My consultant has given me blood thinning injections to do every 12 hours. There is nothing to say I have a blood clotting problem but the consultant said it can't hurt to try. I already have lots of purple needle marks on my tummy which is not attractive but I'll do anything, as I know we all would.

Sending lots of love & thoughts to you all...xx

It only takes one time!!! Don't lose hope X

Cheeky that's a dark line! I'm on CD 22 and waiting to be able to test. I had a 24 day cycle last month so I've no idea what is going on with my body. Pre mc I was always 28 days. Since its ranged between 29-31. Except for last month when it was 24. I took last month off because it all got too much so I'm not expecting anything this month but the 'hope' has got to me regardless!

Good luck Bertie!

Great news about your referral Brenna. Must be v reassuring and amazing that it's not months away as can happen with referrals. Hope you find your NHS guardian angel! Xx

How exciting for the BFPs :) :)

I had my blood test on Friday. I had the worst dream yet the night before - woke up totally distraught and couldn't get back to sleep for ages so I was feeling pretty emotional and vulnerable and ended up crying a bit they made me lie down and wait for ages afterwards and I felt really silly.

Oh well. I can phone on Monday for the result so fingers crossed for a nice 0 for me! (HCG levels)

That's great brenna that you have you're appointment. I hope they can get things moving quickly for you.

Cheeky definitely darker!!! So exciting! I'm probably the worst person for relaxation advice but I would say do anything you can to keep yourself busy.

Cd22 for me today... Still no ov, temps low... Had this really bad pain earlier but now it's gone! Wish this cycle would get lost! Did get my arse out of bed for park run this morning so that's good! And now shopping for Italy happy weekend everyone!

Thanks

They are getting fainter. They look like my background negatives by the last few. Fingers crossed you will see a surge again soon.

I tested again and look darker. Thanks for the support ladies.

Really pleased the appt came through fairly quick Brenna. Hopefully you will start getting answers. Sometimes it can be so simple as needing to take a tablet to fix a deficiency. Got everything crossed for you.

I hope you get the help you need brenna and that you have your baby very soon

Any other opkers fancy having a look at these tests and telling me what you make of them? I'm really hoping i see a change soon! 34 days now since i found out i wasn't pregnant any more and i feel no further forward!

Started testing when hpts were just about negative

My referral to the Recurrent Miscarriage Clinic is through. 25th of May. The day after our wedding anniversary and 1 year and 1 day after we started trying for a baby.

If it was me I'd say bake a cake Cheeky. That is how I deal with anxiety. Apart from that just take care of yourself and keep reminding your self you are doing everything you can. Hugs.

And congratulations IC!!!! That sounds v romantic! Xx

Thanks so so much for everyone's kind words and congratulations!!!

I still don't want to believe it. I am suspicious of every twinge. I don't mean to sound ungrateful but it's just tough to think it will all be ok after everything. I think I'll feel better when I know my HCG levels are rising. I saw my consultant yesterday who ordered the bloods and I went this morning, and I'll go again on Monday. I'll let you know how I get on. How are you Cheeky??

How is everyone else? Good weekends ahead!

Xxx

I feel so anxious trying to forget about it but it's not working. Anyone got any advice?

Congrats insufficiently!!

Thanks lucky. Just shows that everyone will fall preg sooner or later. Zx

Also congrats insufficiently!! Eloping sounds very romantic and couples I know who've chosen to get married that way have always seemed very happy with the choice xx

Wow congrats cheeky and kate! I had a feeling we were due some BFPs again. You're both a good advert for the relaxed approach to TTC, hope you can keep taking one day at a time xx

I'm now about 1dpo going by temps and OPKs. I'm now wondering if I should put more weight on the temps as I seem to get a reliable dip around OV that doesn't exactly correlate with OPKs but last time we caught the dip (march) I got pregnant. Caught it again this time but will have to wait to see whether the dip theory is right ..

Aw Thankyou. I missed my opportunity to test with FMU this morn so will wait for tomorrow now.

Hi everyone. I've been lurking for a while but wanted to say a massive congratulations to cheeky and Kate. Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months

Oh and congratulations insufficiently! So much on this thread!

I hope all of you have got lovely weekends planned. I'm glossing the stairs (yay...) and going to a probably cloudy bbq. Should be fun though!

CM has gone v sticky today. Do you think we're safe to knock dtd on the head for a few days? Bit worried about feeling like we havent done enough when AF eventually comes a-calling, but OPKs and CM both say not fertile just now.

Congratulations Kate! Wishing you a very healthy and happy pregnancy

So many great messages!! A wedding! How exciting!!

Ants I started TTC straight after I stopped bleeding but I didn't dtd that much. I know everyone is different but I quite like that I had af so that I knew my days... Even though my cycle is still screwed up!

So this week has been pretty rubbish for me. Argued with OH about loads of nonsense and then yesterday he tells me he has lost his passport two weeks before we are going on holiday... And he wonders why I'm annoyed!!! Haven't dtd all week. My temps are still low so definitely didn't ovulate this month. It's cd22 and I'm feeling really af'y today. Just a general ache down there! Also... My Cm is quite heavy and creamy... Sorry for the tmi! Is this a sign af is coming??

I hope everyone is enjoying the sun!
