TTC after miscarriage - May 2020

@SmileyT Its so bad as cb say dnt to test twice if its low with fmu and i wouldn't have tested again unless i was doing cheapies and seen it so strong and read on here that it happened to someone else (was it u) so i could have possibly missed it.
But looks like iv literally caught the start of the surge maybe thats what in thinking, ill do another few cheapies and see how it progresses too as i have plenty of them so glad i started testing early with cb just i case i had a shorter cycle x 🙏 will get between the sheets the next few days 🥰

@Hayleylou89 yes it happened to me on Saturday just passed. Negative on both cheapie and digital. Retook that afternoon at 4pm and peak on both

@Hayleylou89 I think you get a temp drop pre ovulation dont you? @SmileyT might be able to confirm that.

Glad that you also have a shorter cycle so you don't have to wait as long too! Let me know how you get on with the cup if its arrived for you. Last night was my third time using it! Xx

Yay @Hayleylou89 to your peak 🙌😁 enjoy the next few days 😉👌 and glad you dont have the long wait you had last month xx
Has your fertiliy cup thing arrived ? If so let us know how you get on 😁 xx

@VP91
Im cd 19 today so ovulation predicted for weds.... crazy how i had that really big temp drop this morning aswell ...so glad I can get in that tww a bit quicker too :) hopefully my cycles are shortening a bit to a nice 32 day cycle as that what i had the month before conceiving and that looks like what this might be instead of a 38 day xx

@Hayleylou89 yay for peak! Yes next 3 days then skip a day and then DTD again

@busby85 OMG so happy for you and slightly jealous lol wish you all the best with this new pregnancy

Ahh @busby85 what fantastic news. Congratulations 🌈 I hope you have a safe and healthy pregnancy xxxx

Ahhh @Hayleylou89 that is so good. Congrats om your peak. What CD are you now?

Yeah next three days if you're following SMEP😊😊 xx

Hadnt finished before posting. I wanted to go on and say. Thank you all so so much! I hope you all succeed and get your 🌈 soon! Xx

Thank you @2020wish @VP91x @mummybear05 @hayleylou89 for all of the advice and well-wishes. I called the EPU and they informed me that the blood test they did after my mc was less than 1 which would class as a negative, so I can count these positives as a new pregnancy! I really am over the moon. Thank you all so so much!

So happy girls did a cb just now and look!! Straight from low this morning to peak ... so when should i dtd now?? ... the next 3 days basically??! Im so excited and happy to be closer to the tww than having to wait all week 🥰

@VP91 no I have had 4 circles now which is so wierd cos my cheapies were very faint so i expected it but when they went darker i thought it would have gone to high fertility (flashy) and it hasnt its stayed as the circle which is odd ... this morning cheapy was faint but this afternoons os dark again (see pic) @renna surly clear blue should pick yesterdays up as at-least high fertility not just the circle ... do u think i do another cb now that its this dark below? As someone did get peak straight from circle the other day didnt they? Cant remember who it was now x🙈

Going to DTD again tomorrow morning, skip a day and then Thursday just for extra luck then give poor Dh a break lol

@2020wish you're all covered then 😊! Hopefully goes quickly xx

@VP91x yes basically every day from last week lol I think I’m well covered. I hope so tww starts today

@2020wish sorry that last bit I meant you might not show anything if you re test after these 48hrs because it resets and it might go back to baseline.

Exciting you definitely have another chance at pregnancy. Have you been DTD everyday since peak? xx

@2020wish ah see! 😊 You'll definitely have ovulated and you will be in a TWW. I think the CB stick resets itself after 48hrs anyway. So you might not show anything at all.

@Hayleylou89 that was your first test on the CB for this month wasnt it? I have read that your first test each month will always be a blank circle because it takes that as your baseline so if your IC was quite high already. It will need a further spike for it to flash and then further for it to get a static. At least that's what I understand from it 🤔. My temps are fluctuating too xx

My bbt chart is all over the place also. But both my cheapies and digital and ovulation pains have all happened together so I wouldn’t worry about your bbt too much: I actually read yesterday that it isn’t as reliable as the opk test strips as your temp can fluctuate depending on so many factors. Just keep urself covered with DTD and you shouldn’t miss it x

@Hayleylou89 my body is weird too don’t worry!! I had a BBT rise in the morn (CD15) but that was the same I got my peak (tested midday), and then BBT dropped slightly and hasn’t risen since 🙄 so my app says I ovulated on CD 14 when I hadn’t even had much of an LH surge by then. So confused!! I only use the ic though - not cb - although I think i’ll invest if this month isn’t successful!!

I read a lot of science journal articles this weekend as I was so confused by it all, and they said that when the LH surge starts, it’s 24-36hrs before ovulation, and at peak its 10-12hrs before ovulation. Either way for me - my BBT rose before my LH began to, so I can’t have ovulated when the app thinks I did! Soooo confused! I think DTD every other day from now would definitely cover you!

@Hayleylou89 what does your cheapy look like this morning? Xx

My temp dropped to like 35.98 its actually fell off the chart this morning 😂 i mean it normally drops few days before ovulation but not completely off the chart... my body is wierd 🤦🏽‍♀️ x
