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 ❤️

@Anny27 if you look at my flo I last DTD on the 10th. If I ovulated after that would it still catch. 2 weeks from the 10th brings me to 24th March which was the day after I had a faint positive with clear blue. So confused xxx

Anny27 · 26/02/2020 15:34

@AlviesMam no that was from a "normal" cycle

If you got negative OPKs around your usual ovulation time I am convinced you ovulated late and your tests are absolutely normal!

AlviesMam · 26/02/2020 15:27

@Anny27 ah sorry just seen it was this cycle xx

AlviesMam · 26/02/2020 15:01

Was that when you ovulated 10 days late?? @Anny27 xxx

Anny27 · 26/02/2020 14:47

@AlviesMam that FRER looks like my last pregnancy test (at 12dpo) and I didnt question it just took it as a clear positive :D and over the next few days I got clearer positives on cheaper tests

I would say it's looking good

AlviesMam · 26/02/2020 14:42

Well I did opks near my original ovulation date which were negative!
Below is a pic of yesterday's test and the other from Sunday's test (Sunday is clear blue)

Do you have a pic of your tests?

It's hard to know when you ovulated without OPKs or temping but this cycle I ovulated 10 days late!!! So it's possible

@AlviesMam

AlviesMam · 26/02/2020 14:36

Based on my flo app when do you think Ive ovulated if I'm just getting light positives and I'm 7 days late...I wouldn't class them as faint but they aren't dark ...

Xxx

@AlviesMam I am confident that you ovulated late 🤞🤞

If something was wrong and the tests were indicating that, I would have expected you to have started bleeding by now as chemicals happen very quickly after tests start to fade.

Really hope everything is okay at docs!

@StephyRose how are you getting on lovely?

9dpo and just waiting till AF is late (hopefully!!!) To test

AlviesMam · 26/02/2020 14:14

Test line stills medium pink but not as dark as control line. I've no bleeding, no cramps and just the general early signs of pregnancy such as gas etc.

I'm going to docs on Friday for blood test.

Is there any hope for me?

Why isn't my line going darker , I'm 7 days late. 😔 it's torture this!! Why is life playing tricks on me.

Just need a vent xxx

StephyRose · 25/02/2020 19:25

I hope so lovely, thank you for listening. 💗

I feel you and I understand you and I feel that you have been through it to a much harsher extent than I have so I can imagine how low you are feeling. ❤ I'm going to give you the same advice you have given me - dont lose hope. There is a rainbow out there waiting for us. 🌈🌈

AlviesMam · 25/02/2020 19:21

@StephyRose I know a few friends that spotted light pink when wiping and it's more normal than anything to worry about, don't loose hope!

It's a good line but worried that it's not strong enough for being 6 days late! 😢 I'm going to retest tomorrow and I have a blood test Friday.

It absolutely pisses me off this unknown ... like haven't I/we already been through enough and I get a faint line and no period so to me that's a Maybe you are maybe you aren't?! It's fucking torture! Life is fucking cruel. I feel like I'm getting depressed. I hate my body it's failing me

StephyRose · 25/02/2020 19:15

Hi @AlviesMam,

Thank you. I dont have anymore line tests left, I only have digital. I just went to the toilet and wiped again and it's not there.

I'm just praying everything is okay. I feel like i cant go through this again 💔

Did you test this morning my lovely? The line looks great to me 💗

AlviesMam · 25/02/2020 19:06

@StephyRose light pink blood can be normal... can you go and get checked out for peace of mind xxx

AlviesMam · 25/02/2020 19:05

@StephyRose I'm sure I seen a test pic...I it's gone 🤷🏼‍♀️ x

AlviesMam · 25/02/2020 19:04

@StephyRose awwww god 😔😔😔 sending lots of hugs and strength- have you just tested and the lines faded?

This process is heartbreaking. I've had a faint line for a few days I just don't know what to think xxxxx

StephyRose · 25/02/2020 18:44

Hi lovelies,

Just had some bleeding which is making me assume the worst.

I feel like this process is breaking my heart.💔😥

@sweetpeaormarigold I constantly think "oh if we catch this cycle then we can tell BIL when we see them in XX day" 🙈🙈 haha!

@alviesmam thinking of you and precious Alvie today xx

SweetpeaOrMarigold · 25/02/2020 09:36

All these positives are making me cry!
I'm such an emotional wreck when I let it all get into my brain.
Congratulations you gorgeous women, you're giving us all hope it can happen! So happy for you all 💞
I'm d10po now and trying not to symptom spot but being woken up with huge sore boobs and cramps again. Just got to wait for that positive and if it sticks. Even if its positive, I can't let myself think too hard. My stepson is home over Easter so would be 10 weeks and think we would release the news then to close family. Not that I'm thinking about it 🤦🏻‍♀️

kkr168 · 25/02/2020 09:32

Congratulations to everyone with bfp's x
I'm out this month, AF arrived yesterday, 2 days late.

FireflyGirl · 25/02/2020 09:26

Congratulations @Ibaadsmummy, everything crossed it's a sticky one 🤞

Glad you managed to speak to your DH - he was probably worried about you as well! Flowers

Leok83 · 25/02/2020 09:14
