TTC after pregnancy loss - thread 27 - BFPs are coming!

Hope you get good news @Hayleyfx, I've got my fingers crossed for you!

@MeghanV07 and @DayDreamer1707 it'll be 6 weeks tomorrow since the D&C. I think I'll call the hospital tomorrow even though they've basically told me already they're not going to do anymore tests seeing as my hcg is below 25. I'm worried that the level appears to be exactly the same now as it was 2-3 weeks ago.

@MeghanV07 fingers crossed you don't get anymore spotting, such a worrying time try and remain positive 🤞🏻💕

I haven't done temping yet I think next cycle I will definitely give it a try do you n special type of thermometer ? @Lilimum5

Just been catching up on thread as I'm a newbie, sad to see how much heart ache everyone's been through.

Fx for you @hayleyfx 🤞🏻

I'm anxious to be pregnant again tbh as much as I want it I know every symptom will be over analysed or overthought and makes me sad it won't be a joyful experience. I'm lucky my last two pregnancy didn't have issues till labour/ last few weeks.

Xx

@MeghanV07 I'm glad you are feeling better hun. Spotting could mean anything. My fingers are crossed 🤞 for you hun xx

Ah thank you, reassuring to know! MeghanV07

@TinselBee I've had that before. I had it after my son was born & read that it's just your body getting 'back to normal' & it's just working in overdrive to get it all going again. I also had that after my mc and now it's all settled so I assumed it was the normal for a pregnancy/mc.

Thanks for updating us @hayleyfx I hope you're okay and having a chilled afternoon ❤️ hopefully they don't keep you waiting too long.

I'm okay thank you @Lilimum5 still keep checking to see if there's anymore spotting but nothing since about 4pm yesterday & I've checked my cervix (stupidly) and there's nothing there either so hoping it's a good sign. I just can't bring myself to think I will actually have a baby & now that having a mc is just what happens to me xxx

Oh god BBT charting Lilimum5 can get very obsessive I found haha. DH is not gonna welcome me doing that again. They haven't given me a date yet, been 3 days since the scan though.

Really hope it's good news hayleyfx and not another mmc for you. FX

@TinselBee I’m glad they’re not concerned about it - always best to check these things! X

Blood has been taken now, was so quick this time. They’ll phone in a couple hours with the results. If they’ve gone up (which I highly highly highly doubt) then I’ll have a scan in a couple days. If not then it’s a confirmed MC. We’ll see what happens 😣 had brown spotting on and off all morning, hasn’t got darker yet. It’s stopped at the moment however this is how my first MMC started so not feeling confident. Will let you all know my results soon as I get them x

@TinselBee ahh OK lol hope your feeling better after speaking to epu. When are you booked in for erpc?

@Justincase87 and @MeghanV07 how are you getting on?
@OctoberGirl91 very confusing but our bodies czn take a little while to get back to normal maybe try tracking your temp might help. I use firtilityfriend app it's great it's good for telling you when you ovulated because it clearly shows it in the app. I've put my chart from my last pregnancy up so you can see what I mean the red Cross is ovulation. I stopped charting while I was pg but I found it really helpful when I started tracking after the mmc before this one.

Ah btw I am TwittleBee, just changed it to TinselBee for the festive season.

Lilimum5 phoned the EPU and they said green discharge is normal and nothing to worry about. Thank you for your perspective on TTC. Is difficult decision to make. Just wish MCs didn't happen and if they had to happen then at least TTC afterwards would be easy

@TinselBee no I don't think that's right go see your doc it could be nothing but better safe than sorry.
@hayleyfx please let us know how you get on.
@Beaglemum93 please go back and insist on a scan or something be done.
@DayDreamer1707 why does this have to be so confusing. I'm now using clearblue digital as it either a positive or not opk and I usually love the ic ones but they are doing my head in at the moment. I can't work out what is going on. When I get first af I will restart my fertility monitor. I'm already temping again. Hopefully my body will start to make sense again soon.
@TwittleBee tbh with you I don't know when I'll be back at ttc as I'm still not right. I had some trouble with medical management and I think my body is off kilter. If I had my way we would already be trying. Is personally up to you when ever you are ready. If you've health problems maybe a chat with your doctor will help. I think it's easier to date if you wait until after your first AF

Thank you all for getting back to me. I’ve taken your advice and I’m about to head up to the hospital. I do need to know for sure what’s going on so definitely going. Thank you all so much for the support ❤️ I’ll keep you all updated x

Btw, I've not started bleeding yet bit just noticed some green discharge... Sorry if that's a bit TMI! That can't be good can it?

Oh hayleyfx spotting really can be so many things. I had frequent spotting with my DS, it was just my cervix the whole time. FX for you

@MeghanV07 before my MC my app said they averaged at about 23 days. But it took me 30 days to have my AF after the MC so this is technically my first proper cycle since that.

@hayleyfx your better to get your bloods done, brown spotting is just old blood. If it was bright red that would be different. Things could still be fine, stay positive x

@beaglemum93 how long has it been now? It’s so frustrating when things are unclear and it our own body x

@DayDreamer1707 how long are your cycles normally? Xx

Please go @hayleyfx ❤️ One of my best friends has spotted throughout her pregnancy and she's 14 weeks now with a healthy baby on the way.

Please update us when you've been.

@Beaglemum93 do you have any more doc appointments booked? How long has it been since your mc? Xx

@hayleyfx please go for the bloods, if the spotting stops in an hour, then you'll be kicking yourself for not knowing - spotting doesn't always mean bad news - good luck and whatever happens look after yourself X

I thought I was finally going to get a negative hpt this morning because the line was so faint on friday but it seems to be darker again... I'm getting so fed up now and don't know what to do because the doctors don't care.

I think it's still worth having another blood test @hayleyfx. You'll get more of an idea of what's going on if you have tests. Hope you're ok

Woke up this morning to some light brown spotting. I think I have my answer. There’s no way this is a viable pregnancy after everything that’s happened. Girls do you think there’s much point in getting another blood test? Don’t know whether to phone and tell them what’s happening or just go up anyway. At least I have my answer now, even though it’s definitely not the one I wanted 😣

@MeghanV07 im on Cd19 x

@DayDreamer1707 what CD are you on? Xxx
