TTC after MC - June 2020

I'm 31 TTC #1 after a MC in March this year, AF has just finished and I'm on CD6 and all ready to go for my 2nd full cycle.

This month I will be tracking with opks, CB connected, BBT and following SMEP plan.

@HopeForRainbowbaby glad ur approaching ovulation 🤞🏻 are u using cb sticks
Or ic's xx i used both leading up to ovulation.

The little girl we lost we named her Bonnie and i adore that name so so much

So weve found it so hard choosing anything we like as much Bonnie, but so far weve got Mylie (girl) and Codie (Boy)

Reason for the IE ending is my step kids either end in IE or Y so it needs to flow nicely with their names too i think ... any other ideas let me know but im sure iv searched every name going when i was last pregnant with Bonnie 🤦🏽‍♀️ xx

@Hayleylou89 hey babe glad your bloods are looking good xx didnt get my static yday and cheapies didnt get darker .. so I'm thinking my cycles are going back to how they were pre PG/MC and may see a peak later tonight or tomorrow as my AF came a day later this cycle which is more in keeping with cycles before I was PG and so I guess ovulation will happen a day or so later too :) although I wanted to see the peak as I'm impatient I'm seeing it as a good thing that my cycles looking like they're going back to what they were before where I'd have like a 28 day cycle and I'd get peak on CD14.. which it was the month I got PG in december. So 🤞 it's a good thing:) doing cheapies throughout today to see when line gets darker, but got my 3rd flashing smiley today so going in right direction .
I'm doing temping but with the puppy my sleep pattern all over the place and the app has decided I already ovulated on CD8 based on temp rise lol .. which I know deffo isnt the case but maybe once I get the peak lines and put that in the app itll update but with my sleeping pattern etc being all over the place I cant rely on it much this month lol.. wearing the ava but itll probably be the same issue as the ava doesnt have previous data to go on either.. but gonna carry on with it all so I have the data there .
Used fert illy last night for 2nd time after DTD and think I got the knack 👌 lol
I went chiropractor yday they manipulated my back said I have issues with sacroilliac joint , almost complete instant relief after the treatment he gave me at the time so that's reassured me the pain isnt from kidneys /gynae 🤞🤞

Xx

@Rainbowhope11 you made me laugh outloud with DTD till the end of the time 😂 indeed fingers crossed for ovulation this month and BFPs following that!

Doing the tests gives me some sort of comfort. I am also glad to see that my body is getting back to rhythm after MCs. I dont think I ovulated directly after First MC because my HCG stayed for around 4-5 weeks after. this time my body recuperated faster l( due to earlier MC than first one ), so I expect ovulation in time. What is your experience ladies ? When did you ovulate after MC?

VP91x · 03/06/2020 07:26

@Rainbowhope11 😂😂 I felt like that last month. I'm not going to use the CB sticks this month and stick to the femometer strips because I got my peak on them clearly so should be okay hopefully 🤞

Rainbowhope11 · 03/06/2020 07:17

@VP91x if you're ever on my side of the world, let me know!😊

I'm also going to do SMEP again, I just hope I get a static smiley this month, or else I'm going to be dtd til the end of time 🤣 it will be the death of me 🤣 fingers crossed that we both ovulate at a reasonable point in our cycle!

VP91x · 03/06/2020 07:12

@Rainbowhope11 ah, lovely my partner has always wanted to visit Texas. I'm glad all is okay.

I'm going to do SMEP again this month, I'm hoping I ovulate a little earlier this month because CD21 was a long wait! Yeah, it really does become all consuming doesn't it! Xx

Rainbowhope11 · 03/06/2020 07:04

@VP91x aww that's okay lovely, it's actually been good to take a break from my phone for a few days 😊 I'm in Dallas, Texas hun. I'm safe, thank you so much for checking ❤️

I'm so sorry, but I'm glad you are feeling a little better this morning. It's okay to fall apart sometimes, we can't keep it together all the time ❤️

Yay! It's going to be fertile week for you soon😊 excited for us both for this month! Yup, I'm hoping AF shows up soon so I can get on with this month. Had a long chat with DH and we both decided to try and ease off the pressure this month. Last month was just intense for both of us 🙈

VP91x · 03/06/2020 06:43

@Rainbowhope11 hey❤️ so sorry I should have tagged you!! I hope AF comes for you soon hun so that you can start fresh with a new cycle.

I'm CD4 now.

Ah, it was just so so shit. But, I have woken up this morning feeling a little better. I'm not sure what part of the US you are in, but hope you are keeping safe with everything going on? X

Rainbowhope11 · 03/06/2020 02:50

I was wondering why everyone was so quiet on the May group 😂 I totally forgot that there already was a June bus! I've missed hearing everyone's stories 😊

Rainbowhope11 · 03/06/2020 02:48

Hi ladies, I'm joining from the May group. Ttc #1. Had a MMC on the 23rd of March, period took 6 weeks to return however, my Hcg level only went to negative last week. So in total, HCG took 9 weeks to drop. I started ttc as soon as the bleeding stopped from my mc, but with no luck. I'm hoping that now that the Hcg has finally dropped, I have a better chance of conceiving this month.

I'm currently on cd28 (14dpo) no period, lots of bfns. Just waiting for AF to show up. I have two different apps giving me two different dates for when AF is due so I guess I just have to wait it out.

@VP91x I'm so sorry that you had a rough day. I had a similar experience a couple weeks ago. It feels like a giant punch. And then I ended up beating myself up about not being able to get it together. It's the little things that just pull the rug out from underneath us isn't it? I hope you are feeling a bit better❤️

VP91x · 02/06/2020 21:48

@MichT4 ah that would be good if you could go in a couple of days a week. Would definitely break it up for you.

@Niisa thank you ❤️ I am sure it will be covered as more impt pre ovulation I think! As opposed to bang on the day.

@Hayleylou89 thank you hun xxx

@HopeForRainbowbaby ooh, fertile week coming up for you that's exciting!

@NightDreaming glad you are feeling better today. Gutting about your flight even though you might have expected it. I'd love a little getaway right now! Xx

NightDreaming · 02/06/2020 21:19

@1990EM thank you for the message. Feeling better today, not great, but better. Which is pretty good going as I got an email earlier saying my flight had been cancelled. It’s not until end of July so feels slightly premature of them to cancel. No summer holiday this year. But it’s an incredibly minor issue of a major pandemic. Just have to hope UK’s August is as sunny as May was.

Could really do with some happy news. Anyone had any positive pees today?!?

HopeForRainbowbaby · 02/06/2020 21:18

@Hayleylou89 I'm on CD 8. The bleeding stopped two days ago so can start with DTD.
Do you also have names for babies ?

Hayleylou89 · 02/06/2020 21:08

@2020wish good luck this cycle 🌈 U deserve some luck u way! Xx

Hayleylou89 · 02/06/2020 21:06

@VP91x Thats a lovely idea 🤞🏻 I have everythi lg crossed for u.

@Niisa Obv twins would be amazing but at the same time its more high risk so id be even more terrified of it all going to pot .. but we will see on Monday happy as long as i have a healthy pregnancy thats all i pray for xx

@HopeForRainbowbaby

I know, im wishing the week away 🙄 as are most of u im sure, where r u upto in ur cycle?. X

HopeForRainbowbaby · 02/06/2020 21:01

@VP91x I'm sorry you had a down day. I'm positive that you will find other lovely name for your future bundle of joy 🥰

@WellHurrahAndHuzzah haha indeed there is nothing relaxing about it. I'm doing my best to take day by day but my days are just going so slow.

@2020wish how are you feeling ? I assume that your bleeding stopped now as you are ready to start doing ovulation test. Let it be our month ladies 😍

@Hayleylou89 so exciting ☺️ just few days left.

MichT4 · 02/06/2020 19:39

@VP91x no I’m not furloughed, but very distracted working from home. I think I need the routine of going to the office etc to take my mind of it. The MC happened just before lockdown so my boss knows and he’s been amazing. So that helps.
Might start going in one or two days soon to keep me occupied. Just can’t believe how slow time goes, especially the TWW. But I have long cycles, so...😴😴🥱🥱

Know what you mean about the names. I have one boy and one girl one and I’m dreading my sister use one of them. It’s the little things sometimes.

@Niisa I think you’ll be covered anyway, as they say it only needs one! Fingers crossed there’ll be plenty waiting. Cheers to your TWW 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Xxx

Niisa · 02/06/2020 19:05

@Hayleylou89 imagine twins!! I've been praying for twins 😂 hopefully you have twins - if that's what you also want! 💕

Niisa · 02/06/2020 19:03

I'm currently 1dpo and will try DTD tonight.... we haven't been able to the last 2 nights but DTD Saturday and Sunday. Hoping it will be enough. Haven't been testing or taking anything. Going for a very relaxed approach and will see how things go.

Officially in the TWW x

Niisa · 02/06/2020 18:59

@VP91x so sorry to hear that! Like the other ladies have said, it's understandable you feel that way and your turn will be here soon!

VP91x · 02/06/2020 18:55

@MichT4 yeah I think it was the name that really got to me because its on my list of names I love a girl. Just felt like shit! I know yeah, the days are really dragging now. Are you on furlough too?

@SmileyT thank you hun ❤️ I really hope so, would be the best thing. Hard to resist testing isn't especially with the promise of early results!

@Hayleylou89 I've lit a small candle hopefully it brings me luck for this month ❤️ I'm so happy it happened for you. I'm glad your results have come back so strong. Imagine if it was two!

@2020wish it really is so so shit. It's fine to take a step back from things like that especially at the moment. How are you feeling? Xx

2020wish · 02/06/2020 18:45

@VP91x aww sorry to hear that. It’s awful isn’t it. I’m so happy for my friend that’s due the same day as I would have. I couldn’t even bring myself to attend her birthday this week cause seeing her bump would kill me. Hopefully this month is our month and you will have a bun in the oven before your due date xx

I’m cycle day 9 today going to Start opks in about 2 days

Hayleylou89 · 02/06/2020 18:42

@VP91 sorry to hear ur having a down day and please take some hope from me, i prayed and prayed id be pregnant before my due date which is Sunday and i am, just manifest the idea and it will happen for u oh and Dtd alot obviously 🙏🌈💖💙

@SmileyT Happy ur in the tww and looking forward to u testing :)

@renna did u get ur static? Xx

I had my blood results back and all ok 👌🏼 my hcg level on which would have been 17dpo was 2208miu which seems very high compared to last time at that stage i think it was around 612miu on looking back at my records but not 💯 sure...now im thinking jesus is there 2 in there? Time will tell, 1st scan on monday morning ... im so god damn nervous and wishing the week away x x

SmileyT · 02/06/2020 18:19

@VP91x ahh I'm so sorry lovely but I'm really hoping you have a bun in the oven by then and although it will still be a sad day you will also be hopeful for the future of your rainbow ❤️ it's totally okay to be sad and things can really knock us off our feet even when we are expecting them. Yes planning on testing on the 11th but already thinking maybe the 10th 🙈

@VP91x I’m so sorry this happened today, definitely hits you like a tonne of bricks.
Remember it will happen for you, and you can have exclusive time that’s all yours to get excited. Totally know what you mean, names and stuff feel like a strange thing to get upset over, but it all means something. So don’t feel bad for feeling sad.

Treat yourself tonight 🥰 xxx

By the way, I forgot what days going quick feels like 😂. I need a distraction
