Pregnancy after MMC

So sorry you lost your baby, OP. Xx

We had a similar issue a few years ago, where we had a miscarriage and it was very early, at 6 weeks and the doctor gave us the all clear same as you because medically, it should have all been possible.

It might have been caused for a million possible reasons but we had another early miscarriage. My instincts said it was too soon to try again so we decided to leave it and wait.

Not saying thats what you should consider but there is a lot to be said about taking time to emotionally recover and not to put too much pressure on yourself.

Best of luck, wish you every success on this journey!! Xx

@msanne what do you mean? A big lump? Where? Hope you're ok. Im sure it's nothing, this ttc life causes all kinds of anxiety. Xx

@Leaf87 - time will tell. I think I may be being a bit presumptious being all ready to test when I have only had one cycle....but we shall see!

@MrsTtobe - I am due AF on the 23rd so still got 10 days and counting!
I checked my CM this morning and the EW has gone. So if I have ovulated it is over now. the wait now begins....

Whilst checking this morning though I found a big lump inside me (seems to have appeared overnight) so will need to now call the Dr about that and get it checked out.

Morning ladies, @msanne yes that's how I would describe my boobs, like painful twangs! 😔 And ive woke up this morning feeling a little crampy 😔 so got a feeling AF on the way.
When did you say your AF was due? Was it end of May? And I caved at the weekend, I had a couple of small ish pink gins but felt terrible after. 😔

@Leaf87 you're a few days ahead of me then lovely. It's so frustrating isn't it. Im hating my body at the minute for not doing what it should. For the miscarriage, for no AF yet...🙄
Did you say if you've done pg test recently? How long ago was your negative one again? X

CD40 over here..... no signs of anything what's so ever. In my mind I have decided my AF should show up next week! If not will do a test after that and maybe call the Dr as its dragging on now!
@MrsTtobe @msanne all very exciting fingers crossed for you both

@MrsTtobe - I am with you! i have my fingers and toes crossed for you and Friday is only a few sleeps away! I already went and bought some Clearblue tests (a bit pre-emptive I know) - but mainly cos I want to make sure my HCG levels are going up and it gives you the weeks indicator...

With my last pregnancy, the first telltale sign that something was wrong with the baby was because my HCG levels were not rising enough...which is surprising as I felt the worst out of all 3 of my pregnancies with my last one!

In terms of symptoms now - I am actually feeling pretty good _ i honestly am putting it down to the supplements I've been taking (Seven seas Cod liver oil plus multivitamins, EPO, and Folate). My energy levels are defintley up, but i'm not sleeping well (restless/worried about work/home schooling/new pregnancy etc). My boobs keeping getting like random really painful twangs, some random odd tastes in my mouth and my lower stomach does feel crampy. In terms of CM, it was pretty Egg whitey the last few days but seems to have a almost yellowy/brown tinge now (sorry TMI). slightly worried I jumped around too much this morning and may have caused the beginnings of another AF....but I'm probably symptom spotting...help!!

How I wish I could just drink a big glass of wine right now!!

xoxo

@msanne I know the days seem so long don't they at the minute being in lockdown. Right I've been to Asda and ive brought a test. If I've not come on by Fri then going to be brave and just test just so I can get on with some normality and know that AF will be on the way soon. That will be CD 38.
What symptoms you having lovely? Ive had very tender boobs and really bad skin but that's about it. Also had ewcm about 2 weeks ago.

CD17 for me and waiting anxiously! I don't know how I will manage the next 2 weeks as I am symptom spotting constantly! I did some Joe Wicks exercising this morning - which probably wasn't the best thing, but trying to keep myself busy! Even if it means the dreaded exercise!

CD35 here! Still no AF and no obvious signs of it really other than tender boobs! 🤷‍♀️

@Leaf87 😂 took out all the jumping 😂 bless you. Im just jealous you are working out. I just keep eating biscuits instead. 🙈 It's so hard isn't it. Like I keep acting like im still pregnant even though the miscarriage for over 4 weeks ago now. 😔

@Bells993 hey lovely. 😂 I'm so glad I don't have any tests in the house or I would have caved by now. 😂 I might just pick one up next time im out if I haven't come on by Friday.

And yes the whole world is bloody pregnant. 😭
Im like 90% happy 10%jealous (for any FRIENDS fans - Rachel quote) 😂

@MrsTtobe I got a negative pregnancey test last Tuesday, so not sure can you ovulate while still getting a positive test?
So working off that I guessing AF could show up around the end of May maybe??
I am just trying to behave as normal..... however saying that about to do a work out and half of me wants to take out all the jumping.... do you assume you cod be pregnant and then face disappointment or assume your not and then feel guilty..... #askingforafriend

@Leaf87 im the same with my hormones. Im usually fairly laid back but my oh is fully driving me mad just breathing. I need to just man up and test really so I can get on with it 😂 but I haven't taken one since my positive back in Feb. The hospital said I should take one 3 weeks after my miscarriage to check it was negative but I couldn't bring myself to. 😥
The thing I hate most in the world are negative pregnancy tests. 😂 x

@MrsTtobe I am going to hold off till end of May I think before testing, we have been DTD but I would be very surprised if I am pregnant as my hormones have been all over the shop. Also like you said by not testing at least I dont get a negative test

Aww I love how nice we all are on here. Makes everything so much easier having girls to talk to about it all that know exactly how each other feels.

@Frankincense88 I'm not sure what to do. I'm not sure im emotionally strong enough to deal with a negative pregnancy test just yet. It would send me over the edge 😂 so just going to keep waiting I guess. Only CD 34 so not sure? Cycles pre miscarriage were 26ish days but I know they can change your cycle dramatically.

@Leaf87 yes weather has been lovely. What are you thinking? Are you going to test? Have you been dtd?

Morning @msanne thank you 😘 Yes positive vibes for us all xx

Hi All,

Just wanted to send some good vibes out there to all of us.

Whether we have just found out bad news, waiting for AF (to start or end) or a BFP - we will all get through this!

Stay strong!

xoxo

@MrsTtobe cycle day 38 over here..... no sign as yet... had mild cramping yesterday. I have no idea what going on!
Sorry I have been quite for a few days I have been enjoying the weather!!

@Frankincense88 at least now AF has shown up you have a good starting block and should be able to track things easier.

@MrsBlue1986 I know what you mean a week after my D&C my husbands cousin announced she is due a baby...... a week after we should have been due. I was insanely jealous then felt bad that I wasnt happy for them. I am happy for them but I had that 'that should have been us' feeling normal I think!!

@MrsTtobe hoping you get some answers soon! Whether that is AF or a BFP! Are you going to give it another few days before testing? Xx

@Frankincense88 at least you know where you stand now lovely. It's always shit to see AF but almost comforting after a miscarriage so you know your body is doing its thing again and you can get on with ttc.
Im still in limbo... just waiting.

Happy Monday everyone xx

Morning ladies,

AF in full swing now - usually would only be 4/5 days long so hopefully will begin OPK testing around the 19th. Flo says I'm due to ovulate on the 21st but whenever I used them before I found I ovulated around day 16 rather than 14 so we shall see!

@MrsBlue1986 well to be honest im not sure what's going on with my body. I had ewcm about 2 weeks after my miscarriage so about 2 weeks ago now so fully expected AF to have arrived but ive heard how sometimes you don't ovulate first cycle after miscarriage so I don't know what to think. I'm just going to wait till Fri and if I still haven't come on I will do a test.

@mrsttobe Hey. I only ask, because, today would be 5 days in to my "cycle", and i already have wet CM. Is this even possible ? Its normally only 1 week after a period i get this! Did you get that? Xx

Hi @MrsBlue1986 I really hope it's possible for you. My miscarriage was at 11 weeks but im still hoping ive ovulated and dreaming im pregnant 😂🙏 I'm on cd33 and no period. Definitely got tender boobs so guessing AF on the way or by some miracle I'm pregnant x

Hi all again. Hope were all ok. Its kinda comforting knowing other people are in a similar boat.

So after finding out our miscarriage on wednesday, ive just burst out crying finding out one of our friends is now pregnant 😭

Im really hoping this month i ovulate. I always have a 28 day cycle. My miscsrriage bleeding has stopped in less than 4 days. So i am assuming i should ovulate next week?

Because i only miscarried at 5 weeks, I'm hoping that this early stage means my cycle will still be normal??

Is it possibly/likely i could get pregnant again this month!?!? X

@MrsTtobe I doubt it - we've only done it twice, CD 26 and 28 so I think probably too late. I usually ovulate around day 16-18. It's all very confusing 😩 x
