TTC after miscarriage - May 2020

Morning Ladies

CD10 now - so it is SMEP day 😂
Yesterday afternoon had a little more EWCM and this morning definitely very 'wet' (sorry) watery, and some EWCM too. Done my CB Advanced but still on blank circle, but I must be heading into fertile window according to my CM, right?

My BBT temp chart is creeping up so hoping this weekend I start getting flashing smilies.

@Dipsy77 glad you are feeling good in your TWW! Are you thinking of testing before AF due?

@Sallyjo27 that is a good response from them. Hopefully, your cycle will be fine this month and you get your BFP! Xx

6dpo for me and I'm surprisingly calm, normally I'm googling every symptom trying to convince myself something is happening but so far so good

Hi @Mommybear05 😊 was wondering where you were! Hope work is going okay for you.

I finally got my period post mc! And my HCg levels last week were at 10. Going to do another blood test next Friday to confirm that they have dropped to zero. I think it will be a fast drop to 0 now that I've started my period. Well, I'm hoping haha! I'm getting excited for my first fertile period post MC, I feel ready for a fresh start. Told DH to get some energy drinks, because I'm planning on dtd non stop 😂😂🤣

How many dpo are you now? Hope you're well hun xx

@Hayleylou89 yeah I did cheapies too then when I saw the darker line in the afternoon I did the CB later that night xx
Yeah I've looked into the calc fluor so think I'll start taking it from Saturday . I saw a post on mumsnet from a lady asking about it jan this year but no one replied I asked her if she used it and how she got on. She said it worked and shes now 9 weeks pg. Who knows if it's that that helped but worth a try. Xx I've never really thought to look on you tube . Her videos seem really helpful and she seems professional xx attached pic of my cheapies xx
Hope you're okay xxxxxx

Hey @Mommybear05 wondered where u had gotten too! What dpo are u now i know u said u had similar last month and af showed but could it poss be implantation?... im CD 15 and due to ovulate next weekend if i have another 38day cycle x x

@Renna it wasnt me that mentioned it but iv seen the same video on youtube iv watched a few of her videos i really like her :) .. defo watched the tww one before like u x x

Glad u got ur peak already did u do cheapies along side ? What did they look like x x

Hi again ladies, I’ve caught up on the thread. I’m on cd10 but don’t usually ovulate until day 18 so got a bit of a wait ahead. I’ve emailed Tommy’s midwives as I’ve been worried about my cycle. I found they’re reply so helpful so I’ve attached it for you all. Hopefully it will be a comfort to those a of you struggling with cycles being a bit off after MC as mine has been. (I’ve had spotting in between periods, breast really sore at random times etc). I’m hoping my body will do what it needs to do to get ready for a BFP soon x

Hey @Mommybear05 I thought of you today I was going to tag you and see how you were.

What was the spotting like? Xx

Hey @Mommybear05 all good here in my tww trying not to think about it too much and remain positive.

Oh fingers crossed the spotting doesn't come to anything. What are your normal cycle lengths? Xx

Hi girls just catching up I’ve been away for a few days as I’ve been in work and very busy! Also, I think I’ve stopped getting the email updates when someone posts/ tags me for some reason??? I know a few of you are coming up to your fertile time now. Exciting! How are you all feeling today?

Cd24 here. I had some spotting today. Last cycle (first post mc) was 31 days so this would be an early af! But remember that spotting I had last month before af? When I checked my app that was on cd 25 and 28 too so it looks like it could be following the same pattern? Who knows! I’m still so all over the place post mc and post breastfeeding so honestly anything could be happening! Xx

@Rainbowhope11 & @SmileyT y’all giving me hope! Will Deffo keep testing! Ramadan has been okay - a lot easier to fast at home doing nothing than it has been every other year teaching & talking non-stop haha

@Rainbowhope11 I know less is definitely more when it comes to that pre seed. Even a quarter of a syringe is alot 😂😂.

If it makes him feel like I'm even more up for it then my job is done haha xx

@VP91x I was using about the same amount as you are using. But the one time, I thought I'd use over half the syringe...and let's just say, the more the better definitely doesn't apply to this 😂😂🤣

@SmileyT I will have a little read for sure xx

@Rainbowhope11 I don't think so!? He hasn't mentioned it. I remember the first night I used he said "oh, you seem keen" 😂😂 Maybe I should ask? I have used just over a quarter of the syringe each time xx

@SmileyT @2020wish yeah I have a monthly subscription with them at the moment so maybe that is why I get extra info. I never tried the free version so not too sure on the differences.

@SmileyT @Renna does the Calc Flour not affect cycle at all other than helping at implantation?

@SmileyT I definitely also get obsessed with my CM 😂😂 Ive had bit more EWCM but was still blank on CB digital. App says sunday for ovulation so hoping it is roughly correct. Tomorrow will be Cd10 so 2nd day of SMEP.

I have been quiet on here this month - been busy at work but that hasn’t been a bad thing!! Am currently on CD13 - only using cheapy opks (I literally think I have the smallest LH peak time ever as I constantly get low, low, low, low - the first peak I ever got was last cycle!!) and I track my BBT - been trying to do SMEP but we still live at my parents whilst we sort our house - so we have to wait until everyone is in bed (and hopefully asleep lol!) I swear it has mucked up my BBT tracking lol - as we end up falling asleep later than normal so I sleep less/or wake up later than normal 🙄

So lleased for the BFP we have on here - and I have my fingers crossed for more to come!! I’m on my second cycle post MC, but mc was at the end of Feb - so it feels like I have been unsuccessful a lot..trying not to stress though!

@Niisa I've had cycles in the past where I jumped straight from the ⭕️ to the static smiley, so I would just carry on testing 😊 Hope the fasting is going well hun!

@2020wish I found them on Holland and barrett , so thought at least I can trust that they're reputable too . But can take a while to deliver I think as looks like may be coming via royal mail so I found the exact same type on amazon and I have prime so coming Saturday xx it's called this : Schuessler Calc Fluor Tablets - Pack of 125

Fertility homeopath talks about it on this video

Xx

@Niisa fingers crossed xxxx

@VP91x that's so funny that you didn't tell him 😂 he hasn't noticed anything different with the preseed? My DH actually bought the preseed for us, I never heard of it prior to that. Once I used too much, and he kept slipping out 😂 he was so not impressed😂🤣

Haha I know exactly what you're talking about @SmileyT it's totally unromantic 🙈 we were doing the same! Ended up dtd every day during my fertile period at 1am when we got into bed! Sometimes I'd say, can we just make this 10 mins, I'm so tired😂

Is that in general you don't notice a lot of cm, or is that something that changed after the mc?

When I had the Mc, I was reading up all these articles that said that couples who try sooner after the Mc are more likely to conceive within 3 months, I was obsessing over that. But now I've lost 2 months waiting for AF and Hcg to drop, so I think I'm also happy if I conceive within 6 months!

We can do this @SmileyT 😊 fingers, toes, everything crossed for you hun Xx

@Renna thanks hun I will.. I’m gonna test again in an hour just to see. TMI but I feel like I had EWCM this morning so fx! Xx
