TTC after miscarriage - February 2020

Hi to anyone reading 👋🏻

This is a thread for anyone TTC / testing in February, after a miscarriage.

I’ll start off with intros! I’m 37 and my first pregnancy ended in miscarriage at 5 1/2 weeks in December. I TTC straight afterwards, but AF found me, so here I still am on this crazy, frustrating, rollercoaster of a journey!

I joined the January thread after my miscarriage and it’s been amazing to go there and chat to other women who know how you feel.

So for anyone joining this, I’m so so sorry you find yourself here, but you’re in good company ❤️

Great news @Ibaadsmummy and @BS9790 you must be really pleased!

Moominmiss · 01/03/2020 15:08

@Lbaadsmummy and @BS9790 congratulations! Keeping everything crossed for you both that things progress perfectly!

BS9790 · 01/03/2020 12:54

Had my scan this morning, saw a sac and a yolk. Said I'm measuring around 5.5 (impossible as first day of last AF was 5.4 and I have a 31 day cycle) but its not very accurate at this stage for dating (clearly...)

Got to go back for another scan a week tomorrow to see if its progressing and hope that they can see a bit more x

Ibaadsmummy · 01/03/2020 11:42

Quick update ladies had scan I am about 4 weeks 3 days and they saw the tiny sac. Thank you for all ur support will take one day at a time from today and see how its goes. Best of luck to everyone xxxxx

Hugs @StephyRose. We've got everything crossed for you, I'm so sorry you're having these worries.

Have you spoken to GP/anyone about if there is anything wrong, or you've just been unlucky. I think it's something that crosses all of our minds Flowers

Whiffle77 · 29/02/2020 14:32

Really sorry to hear you are having a tough time @StephyRose we will all keep our fingers crossed for you. Try and take it as easy as possible and be kind to yourself.

MilsCookie · 29/02/2020 13:33

@AlviesMam thank you lovely. I know it can take a few months but I am so impatient haha. I have to remember that this is a marathon not a sprint! I am honestly so happy for you. After what you've been through you deserve this so much. Really praying that this pregnancy has a positive outcome and you get to hold your rainbow baby in 9 months time xxxxxxxxxx

@StephyRose I'm so sorry you're going through this hun. It must be complete torture having on and off bleeding and not having a clue what's going on. Fingers crossed you still have at least one healthy bean in there. Try to stay positive and let us know how you get on with your results on Monday - will be thinking of you xxxxxxxxxxx

@waitingformyturn hey lovely, so sorry for what you've been through. I can see lines on both - fingers crossed this is it for you! Sending positive vibes xxx

Sparkl · 29/02/2020 11:23

That’s so tough @StephyRose hope you get reassuring news on Monday. Not a shitty post at all, you need somewhere to say what you feel, it is hard to have to keep positive with people around you so this is the place to vent Flowers

waitingformyturn · 29/02/2020 10:04

Advice needed please - we've been TTC since our miscarriage in July. It's been a tough journey. I've laid off the forums as I was trying to clear my mind of focusing on ttc 24/7. However I'm going out today with a friend so got a test this morning (10dpo) from home bargains. They have both come up straight away with a shadow where the bfp line would be but I don't know if it's indent or evap. I've had similar with the same style eBay tests before and been disappointed.

Hi ladies,

Thank you for your lovely messages and thoughts, it honestly means so much. Dont know what I'd do without you all.

Unfortunately I had bad cramps all day yesterday, slight bleeding, and when I got up to go to the toilet this morning for a wee, I'd passed what looks like a clot.

I feel like it's a MC but the bleeding isnt continuous. Just nothing, then a little and then a random clot and then nothing again. Really dont know what to think. When I went to the hospital for a blood test Thursday, the measured my HCG which was good at 13416. I'm going for another today and I'll get the results on Monday.

I am not hopeful about this and I am just so so sad. My theory is if it looks like a MC and feels like a MC, that is probably what it is. And I feel like I am draining everyone around me. Stayed at my Mums last night to give DP a break. I'm biggest fear is there is something really wrong that cannot be fixed. It keeps me awake at night.

Sorry for the sh!tty post everyone! 🙈🙈

Hope everyone has a great Saturday. 💗💗

StephyRose · 29/02/2020 09:47

@AlviesMam amazing news about your tests!! Wishing you all the best sweetheart!! Xx

AlviesMam · 28/02/2020 21:02

How are you doing @StephyRose xxx

Fizzl · 28/02/2020 19:53

Thinking of you @stephyrose  hope you're doing ok and hopefully will be back with some positive news!

Hi @MilsCookie sorry didn't realise you had posted on this thread - I've just posted to you on the March thread and think answered most of those questions 😂 we will be cycle buddies this month so we will tackle (no pun intended!) March together 😁

AlviesMam · 28/02/2020 18:59

@MilsCookie

It took me five months to conceive after my first miscarriage- I know it's disappointing every time AF comes and I shed a few tears every time with frustration but you're time is coming. It takes 90 days for eggs to form again I've read up while TTC, I am one of these women who read up on anything to try and change anything in my lifestyle!
You will get your BFP and all of these rainbow babies are going to be worth this hard agonising wait!!

I am trying the relaxed approach this time. What will be will be... 🙏🏼

MilsCookie · 28/02/2020 18:27

and @AlviesMam - that's a very strong positive - congratulations! You must be over the moon. Sending lots of positive vibes your way too. And yours too @FireflyGirl - I think I missed your BFP! Congrats! Star

@Fizzl hey lovely! I'm doing okay thank you although AF arrived today so feeling a little bit down that I am now moving into cycle 3. I naively thought I'd catch straight away post mc! Is this your first month trying? What CD are you on? xxx

MilsCookie · 28/02/2020 18:24

Hey everyone - just catching up with the thread!

@StephyRose hope you're doing okay... I saw that your first scan saw twins! Hopefully your next scan will be able to let you know how they are both doing. Fingers crossed at least one (hopefully both of course!) is a healthy sticky bean. Sending lots of positive vibes your way!!

SweetpeaOrMarigold · 28/02/2020 10:48

Thinking of you @StephyRose and hope its all going to work out fine. Twins would be amazing xx

AlviesMam · 28/02/2020 09:24

I've not retested with a FRER. With clear blue being less sensitive than a FRER I am happy with the below progression with clear blue! 5 days apart!
