TTC after miscarriage - January 2020

Life **

@Anny27 MMC at my 12 week scan In jan, baby measured 8 weeks :(

Alvie was born at 22 weeks (had a severe heart defect not compatible with live)
(Received results to state his heart defect isn't genetic which is good news)
Oi
No children, Alvie would have been my first!

DTD every pissing day from last months period! I wasn't really expecting to be pregnant this cycle. I just can't get my head around the fact that when there's an egg there and we DTD why doesn't it happen!? Lol 🙈, I'm looking way too into this but it consumes your life when you tracking!! & especially after a loss I'm desperate for my bundle of joy , like all of you! It's so hard 🙁 xxxxx

So sorry for your loss @AlviesMam ❤ hope that you are getting the support that you need 💓

Was this your first baby?

I'm TTC after a miscarriage in January and a still birth in October :-( AF came Xmas eve so hoping a new year will bring some positive news! Xxx

@MilsCookie any sign of AF or is it still pretty light? Yeah that's fairly surprising to come after 26 days. Mine was after 45 days of start of bleeding and 42 days of surgery so longer than my normal cycle but I expected that.

@Mum1983 hopefully you can conceive quickly again 🤞 it took us 3/4 months to conceive. This was my first pregnancy so definitley have empty arms atm! Hoping for quick conception again.

I use the bbt and helps me to relax once I know I have ovulated haha!

@Gemlou88 sounds like you went through similar. I had medical management at first but I ended up losing a lot of blood and had to have emergency erpc anyway. So feels like it was a long drawn out process to finding out that baby had stopped growing and them having the tablets and then surgery. Hopefully you get your bfp! We decided not to try last month as i had an infection and also had low iron from the blood loss so I wanted to recover properly :)

Hi all. Mine is similar. Missed miscarriage mid Oct at 9 weeks. 2 rounds of medical management didn’t work and had to have surgery. Still no AF since (surgery was 5 weeks ago). But we are ttc. Just want a BFP or AF to show so I know where I am either way

@MilsCookie we have a two year old already. We had wanted two under two ideally but didn’t get my period back until he was 13 months due to breastfeeding then took another 4 months to get pregnant again only to miscarry so really it’s hard to say. It took 3 months for DS. Wishing for some baby dust on us all 🤞I did find the opks helpful as I was ovulating a bit later than I thought. Not quite sure what happened this month so going to get a basal thermometer to confirm ovulation. But then again I’m the worlds most impatient woman 😂

I'd like to join ladies!! :D sadly I see a few familiar faces but I am glad we can be supportive:)

I had a MMC in November and had to have medical management which left retained products so then had to have surgical management. I was 11.5 weeks although baby was only 6 and a half weeks.

Took 6 weeks for period to return but its cycle day 1 today finally!

Hi @milscookie glad to see you also on the conception boards!
Very similar story although as you know I opted straight for surgery. Only 3 weeks post surgery and no sign yet of my period arriving and still getting very very faint positives on pregnancy tests (although I swear sometimes they're negative).

Really hoping for a successful pregnancy next time but only tentatively joining these boards again for now as we have decided to wait a few months before ttc again. I have an appointment with the consultant mid feb now so going to use this time to get ourselves a bit healthier following Christmas - back to the gym, no more alcohol and back to healthy eating again. I am a bit anxious about waiting as worry it might not happen quickly again and could take us a long time. But I also know I'd more anxious if I fell pregnant now without having had my appointment with the consultant. I think I'm probably just anxious about being pregnant again and ending up in the same situation but we're trying to stay positive for now as I know so many people experience miscarriages and go on to have successful pregnancies.

Here's hoping we all have a more successful 2020 with lots of healthy pregnancies

Hello! In a similar situation. I had a missed mc at 10 weeks in the 4th November and had medical management. Had my first period post mc on the 30th November. Was praying I would be pregnant this cycle but af due this weekend and have been getting negative tests this week and cramping today so looks like not this month. I think I naively thought I would get pregnant again straight away again so feel very disappointed 💔

I could nearly have written that post. My dates were very similar. I was hoping to get pregnant before my first period after the Mmc but sadly all I got for Xmas was my period. Really really hoping to get pregnant next cycle. Had used opks this month with a positive surge but no joy. Here’s to jan 2020 I guess. 🤞
