TTC after miscarriage - end of January 2020 testing

Hi am interested in joining in this group I also have 2 children and unexpectedly fell pregnant in March last year but had MMC at just 6 weeks. I have been TTC ever since and have had nothing at all am 43 next month and loosing all hope here. I have regular cycles but short between 21-24 days have heard this is a sign of menopause which terrifies the life out of me. My hubbie thinks we should give up and my GP is saying it wasn't meant to be and I should just be happy with what I have got. Trust me am thrilled to be a mum of 2 was a difficult journey with 2 MMC before my 1st child then another before my 2nd child but I just can't settle. I'd love to try IVF but my husband point blank refuses to consider this feel like there's nothing else I can do but hope and even that is running low these days. Am even considering leaving my husband and having IVF as a single woman but they probably wouldnt treat me of something it's crazy how you can become stuck on a dream and just can't give up. My friend says maybe I should get counselling for bereavement but I don't want that I just want to be pregnant again and have another baby. Feels like what little eggs I have left are little to know use.

Sorry but it's hard to find anyone to share this with.

@anny27 same!!! I diluted with water- helps

@ChampooPapi yes goodluck this cycle lovely xxx

@Pancakes26 I got some grapefruit juice and omg it's the most disgusting thing I have tasted haha! Hope it increases cm haha

@ChampooPapi thank you lovely. I'm happy but so scared. Hope you're doing ok?

@Michette I'm pretty sure I ovulated on CD25 this time and conceived. Keep tracking xx

Might not be debriefing for me at end of feb... CD 16and no ovulation in sight 😑

@champoopapi wave back!!!

@Pancakes26 congratulations to you too 🌈♥️

You must be over the moon, so happy for you and finally see some more positive outcomes for you amazing woman

Waves at @Anny27 and @Michette, all the love to you guys as well of course. Catch up the end of February for de briefing 😆

@GemLou88 congratulations! I checked on our thread after seeing a notification in my email and hoped to see good news. I am so happy for you, you have waited a while for this so sending a big virtual hug and all the best ♥️🌈✨👣

@Pancakes26 will try grapefruit juice...
But as @Anny27 said i literally have no CM to even check due to DTD so often

@Michette
I just tracked the consistency. If you google they tell you what to look out for.
Try grapefruit juice, that’s will help make more CM. I noticed a lot more then other months when I drank it. Let me know next month if it helps for not!

@GemLou88 congrats!!!

@Pancakes26 congratulations lovely! wishing you all the best!and to you @gemlou88 🥰🥰

@Michette I also find that DTD totally screws up my interpretation of CM Haha! I seem to have none compared to when we dont DTD

Congratulations @Pancakes26!! Hope you have a happy and healthy pregnancy!!

I got a faint BFP on Friday. I did a CB digital Monday which said pregnant 1-2 weeks. There seemed to be many of us on this thread, but not too many getting their BFP. I hope there was more than we knew about. Wishing everyone that got their BFP all the best for a healthy and happy 9 months, and to everyone TTC in February all the best for BFP xxx

@Pancakes26 and congrats ofc!!!!!!

Thanks @Pancakes26!!

Can i just ask how did you follow CM?
I found dtd daily interfere a lot and i dont have any CM at all by the time ovulation comes... it’s like dtd dries up everything.

Hey everyone,

I posted in the original chat but i haven’t said much in the last few weeks.

I just wanted to let you know I got my BFP this week but I wanted to tell you what I did differently this month. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or if it worked but I hope it gives people some hope that these things can work.

• This month I have actually been more stressed then I have ever before for lots of reasons that weren’t conceiving related so... don’t worry about being stressed!
• I did 2 sessions of acupuncture ( 1 time a week before when I think i was ovulating and 1 time just after)

• I DTD ever other day from the day after my period and then everyday on the day before and after i ovulated
• I used OPK (clearblue digital) but i didn’t follow it completely. I think i either ovulated twice or ovulated late. I followed my CM when it was wet and clear I made sure I DTD.

Do some research, it might not work for everyone and also it’s not over until the baby is past the safe period! But I know how you’re all feeling and Some may have called me obsessive but I wanted to make sure I gave myself the best chance. Anyway good luck everyone!

@MilsCookie @FireflyGirl so sorry, I’m disappointed for you. Hopefully February will be your month! Lots of chocolate and wine for you and feel down if you feel down! You’ll bounce back in a few days! big hugs

M/c last March... trying ever since.

I think I may well have scraped in there with a January positive!

I'm sorry you've all lost pregnancies before - it's heartbreaking :(

@MilsCookie right back at you lovely ✨🌈

@MilsCookie @Anny27 just popped back on to see what's what, sorry we are all in the February boat now but positive outlook ladies. We've got this 💪. Love you both and I'll check back in end of February to see if any of us have caught that November baby xx

Thanks lovely 💗 @MilsCookie yep it's been a tough journey for us, from being excited and hopeful for our June babies to now being desperate for another! Fingers crossed for us! November babies 🤞🤞🤞
