@SmileyT I haven't had a period since my miscarriage, so do I just take the first day of my miscarriage and calculate it that way?

SmileyT · 24/05/2020 20:15

Congrats @lma00015 🥳 you can work out your estimated due date from your last bleed (which is your last period really) when was that? Thats how the NHS work out due dates rather than on ovulation/ conception date, It's just an estimate at this stage anyway and when you get your scan they'll give you your real updated due date ☺️

@DontStandSoClose my period wasn't really delayed, it was a 31day cycle (average is 28days but 31 isn't unusual for me) from MC bleed the Dr told me on average it takes 4-6 weeks so normal cycle length, maybe take a test a few days after your period would be due x

lma00015 · 24/05/2020 20:13

@HE88 I wasn't sure if you put the first day of MC down or the day of conception? Il just need to wait it out till I get a scan I recon x

HE88 · 24/05/2020 20:10

@lma00015 ah that will be tricky could you put the 1st day of bleeding you had from the MC? Xx
@DontStandSoClose they say your period can take 4 to 6 weeks to come after a MC. I was 10 weeks when I had my mmc and my period came 5 weeks after that. Xx

Hey @DontStandSoClose mine took 8 weeks. Everyone is different some have only been a couple of days out. Worth doing a test if you DTD regularly this month xxx

@HE88 Thank you! Trying to work out a due date is proving difficult as I haven't had a period yet 😂

DontStandSoClose · 24/05/2020 20:05

If anyone had a miscarriage around 6 weeks how soon did your first period arrive?

Normally today would be the day my period would be due, I’ve been getting all the cramps since yesterday that my period is about to arrive any moment but it’s nowhere to be seen. We did get straight back to trying, although I’ve no idea when I ovulated, we just had sex every other day. I was thinking that my period would be delayed anyway?

Normally I’d wait until my period is due and then test, but as I’ve no idea when that is I’m not sure. I feel a bit ridiculous testing when I feel like my period is due (and only have an overpriced digital my husband bought when I was pregnant last month in, which I normally only use after a positive on a cheap test!). I just thought I’d ask what everyone’s first cycle did? I don’t feel like I’m pregnant... but then again I said that with my second child!

@2020wish Thank you!

@Wishingfornumber2 Awwww did she? Yeah Iv read that a lot of women do get pregnant straight away which has made me feel a lot better! Thank you for the support x

Wishingfornumber2 · 24/05/2020 19:29

@VP91x yes pretty much a normal flow now and cramping which I have had the last few days 😖.
@Ima00015 congrats! You shouldn’t feel guilty. It happens to lots of women. My friend had a MC and then fell pregnant with her now 2 year old son straight away without having a period. X

2020wish · 24/05/2020 19:24

@Ima00015 congrats!!!

lma00015 · 24/05/2020 18:58

Hey ladies I'm currently 12dpo and just got my first BFP tonight!!!!!! 2 days before AF was due.
I'm so over the moon but feeling slightly guilty for how soon after my MC Iv got pregnant. Is it normal to fee this way? Anyone else felt like this?

@Jazper always buy the sticks on Amazon though. So so much cheaper than the shops!

Haha, yeah he will soon be pestering you when you go into the TWW and you forget 😂 xx

@VP91x haha, so spoilt. I haven't mentioned my peak to him but it's so obvious that I know because I can't leave him alone 😂

@Wishingfornumber2 yes, I agree, they are so expensive. Now it looks like my cycles are regulating again though I could probably shave a couple of days off testing next month and miss out the first two. Hoping to not need them in June though 🙏🏼

HE88 · 24/05/2020 15:48

Congratulations @Sallyjo27 lovely news. Xx

Oh no @2020wish I really hope its just dodgy test. Xx

Sallyjo27 · 24/05/2020 15:31

@vp91x yes I think so, I’ll probably test for the next two weeks 😂 x
