TTC After Pregnancy Loss Thread 22.

@YellowDaffodils86 thanks, that's so kind! I'm very much a learner by YouTube too. I used to be pretty handy in a sewing machine but it's been a while and the one I've acquired is old.

@zarala that looks almost positive to me I'd say your high but not peak, how confusing for you though! Test again later on tonight and it might be positive.

@Boboelephant I'm excited for POAS Friday for you! I'm gonna wait until 11dpo this month to test too. Only 9 days to go...
I really hope this is your month though!!

@Boboelephant im 4dpo so you must be 7dpo today. 1 week down! 🎉 my af is due the day we fly so will probably test while on holiday if she doesn't appear.
Nice chart 👍🏻

@Murderino i have made some baby quilts. A couple of years ago I made my first, a baby boy and a baby girl one. Iv just kept until one day i need them. This year good friends had a baby, and i made them one too, i worked really hard on that one.
Its not too hard, i taught myself with you tube and the internet. Id be happy to help where i can.
Like @HidCat says maybe a cushion cover first. Iv made a few of those they are fun to do.

@zarala I couldn't help but laugh, sorry. Glad you have sorted it. Im pretty sure ovulation is imminent for you.

Sorry for AFs @Anyday88 And @weasledee

@Laney79 Iv had 3 days of positives before, if that helps. I think you can catch it going up and down. My first ov since mc was 3days of positives

@Coffeist welcome aboard. So sorry for your losses.

Can I join?

@Pancakes7 yes I've had UTIs before all my pregnancies-including my successful one. Some Antibiotics are supposed to be ok just make sure you to tell your doctor you're TTC so they can give you the safe one- so try not to worry! I HATE UTIs
@Laney79 yes! Go girl and enjoy you def deserve it
@Boboelephant that chart looks amazing! Fx for you !
@TedLife most women only have 1MC and then go on to have a healthy pregnancy- it's less common to have 2 and very very rare (less than 1%) to have 3....so do not worry!

So ladies with OPK experience !
I fucked up CB digital advanced one today because I forgot to stick the stick in the machine before peeing on it
I was expecting the static smiley (had 3 days of flashing ones)
So I've gone out at lunch and POAS on 2 sticks! (I've definitely caught the bug)

So I got a normal CB digital- that came back with a blank 0- 😐 ???
And then I got a cheapie one and look!
Doesn't this look positive to you guys ?
Am I to expect this to be even darker?
(Literally photographed this in my handbag at my desk in office 🙄)

And @Boboelephant here is my chart... I only started temping on Friday so there's not much to it....

Any thoughts?

@Boboelephant I could've worked that out really couldn't I 🤦🏼‍♀️

This was her response:
You do need to stop googling but really hard not to. See what happens, even if it’s positive you will still be on edge due to what happened last time. My implantation cramps felt like normal period cramps and lasted a few days. Fingers crossed for you.

@Murderino bf=Best friend. I was just lazy typing! 😂
@HidCat hope DS gets better soon. Enjoy the cuddles! Laptop away and tele on I'd say!

Hey @Boboelephant what's bf?

Would be so nice to have a preggo buddy, fx for us x

Pretty sure I have a uti.... Sore, feel like I need a wee constantly, tummy ache... maybe we went overboard on the jks. Planning to phone docs but I don't want antibiotics if they can damage my chances of concieving. Anyone been in this situation?

@BabynameEdie hello!! How are you going?
@Cakelaur thanks!! I hope progesterone does the trick! Feeling so nervous!
@MrsGS76 welcome to the tww! I'm 7dpo. Best test if using early is a FRER.
@Murderino we're similar, I'm 7dpo and having some cramps today too. What does bf say??
@Laney79 yep siunds normal. You must just have a longer surge. It can take 48 hours to ov after positive. I reckon you'll prob ovulate today so get on it!! I'd test before bed tonight and see if it's any lighter. If not, jks again tomorrow! Glad you are enjoying it, you deserve it! 😀
@TedLife i think it's very common to have 1 mc and then successful bub. I know plenty of people who have. Try not to worry!!

Wow so much chat! I was in the other thread and though "ok great, not loads to catch up on"... then i spotted the new thread!

Really loving the roll call, feels like I know much more about everyone now.

MMC at 8wks in May (discovered at 11 weeks)
Cycle 1 post MC, trying since now (first pg was a happy accident)
CD11 - entering fertile week and excited and nervous about the possibilities.

One thing that's been bugging my paranoid mind recently is how common do you think it is to have 1 MC and then have a healthy pregnancy? I feel like everyone I speak to has had at least 2 MC before healthy baby born and I feel like i'm set up to fail again

Is it normal to get very positive opks more than 12 hours apart? My one yesterday at 1700 was positive (ic line as dark as the control) and then this morning at 0700 my CB digital gave me a smiley face and another IC was even darker than control...

I was assuming Ovulation today-but maybe tomorrow? Should I test this arvo? Hoping to jump on my fella after another hard day at the pool later...we had a play yesterday but (tmi) didn't quite finish off if you know what I mean!

And I tell you what-first cycle after MC has seen my libido go through the roof! Guess it's combo of hormones and desire to be preggers again but my-I've not been this randy for donkeys!!!

Hey @MrsGS76 I'm a TWW-er currently. Constantly texting my best mate asking what's normal and if she had it 🤦🏼‍♀️

Currently cramping and 7/8 dpo

So I've been off for a few days as been busy JKS, officially static smiley face on Saturday on digital OPK, so had DTD many times over the last week! Officially I guess that means I am now in my TWW , I'm counting today at 1dpo, I am going to be a nervous wreck over the next two weeks and will analyse anything that's going on in my body! I have known I've been pregnant before my AF due, mainly due to sore boobs and large areola!
Anyone else in their TWW? Or 1DPO? And what are the best pregnancy tests to use prior to AF due, although I am going to try wait the two weeks.......
So sorry to hear those who are having a hard time, sending you all virtual hugs... xxx

@Boboelephant I'm SO EXCITED!! Progesterone is defo working. That's a great thing either way! 🤞🏻

Thanks @weasledee! I have no idea anymore. This chart looks pretty different to my others though so hope it's a good sign.🤞🤞 testing on POAS Friday!!

Thanks all, bobo chart looking good!
When is testing day?

Pampl3m0usse How are you today? Sorry that you're having these cramps. xxx
Interesting to know your OH was the same even though he's got kids already. I guess it's just very different for a lot of men then it is for us ladies.

Hugs Lilimum4. I did my original test(s) on Sunday 18th Feb for my BFP and I told my family I was pregnant on Mothering Sunday and found out 3 days later that I'd had MMC, so Sundays feel a bit weird for me too. Hope you're feeling a bit better today. Ride the waves. xxx

Hidcat Sorry to hear you were triggered yesterday too. (And hope DS is ok?) But glad your period is finally over. Good luck for this cycle. xxx

Hugs and hand-holds to those who need them today. Best of luck to the TTWers and the FWers. I'm almost in the FW again now, so the just gearing up for the roller-coaster!

@Cakelaur

@Boboelephant what's your chart looking like?

Just checking in with the 🐧 huddle 🐧 and sending baby dust to you all, a speedy tww to those of you in it, a productive and energetic FW to those of you needing to keep up the jks marathon, and huge hugs to those who have been caught by af ❤️🤞🐧🏃🏻‍♀️🤸‍♀️❤️

@Pampl3m0usse i know what you mean. It does seem an unfair extra to linger on! I don't think it means there is any damage, I just think it is our bodies recovering. I hope it calms down soon. This month I have a lot less pain. I am hoping it is because I'm going to get my bfp but it also could be because its been 6 months since MC and my body has finally healed. Who knows!?
@Lilimum4 and @HidCat Sorry you had tough days. Hope today is better!! @HidCat hope DS is ok.
@zarala haha. Glad you sorted it out! Do you want to post your chart?
@Pancakes7 JKS! Cm = fertile!!
@Murderino I've never had it but fingers crossed for you!
@weasledee sorry she got you but at least she didn't make you wait. Fx for next month!!

7dpo here....I can feel my hopes rising and can't stop them even though I know I always set myself up for a fall. 🤦‍♀️

Right there with you @weasledee well I am now cd2 but hey ho! Af arrived a couple of days early for me!

AF arrived this morning, right on time 🙄
So back to day 1 we go......
