TTC after MC - June 2020

SmileyT · 21/05/2020 19:55

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.

@MissyBate @sunflower96 welcome ladies! I'm sorry that you went through MCs. But by joining this group, you are not alone. The ladies here are so supportive of each other! It helps me a lot and I hope it will you too😘

HopeForRainbowbaby · 08/06/2020 09:40

@Meomeomeo welcome ! I'm sorry for your lost. I'm also going crazy with understanding my cycle now. I had a MC in May too but earlier one than last MC in March so my HCG went down to O level much faster. My cycle between MCs was also weird with ovulation on 10CD . So I was not sure what to expect from first cycle after this MC. I'm on 14CD and now I see darker lines so I think I'm almost there. I'm happy for you to be already in your tww. I hope to join soon ! Baby dust all 😘

@sunflower96 welcome ❤️ I'm so so sorry you lost your twins. I hope you find comfort in TTC again and we can support you xx

@MichT4 aw that's lovely that your mum sent you that. She is supporting you all the way. Don't feel silly, nice to let your hair down a bit.

Just different cupcakes and brownies. Easy things I can get my little one involved with. She loves decorating them! Xx

Hi everyone,
Joining you guys on this thread. I had a CP early April followed by a MC mid May and now 4dpo. It has been traumatic and this cycle has been absolutely psychotic. Last cycle it was easy enough to track my ovulation through a combination of app/ic opk and cbd opk. This cycle has been a mess, it felt like I knew nothing about my body at all. O was late and difficult to pin point. Here goes the tww.

MichT4 · 08/06/2020 08:58

Hey @missybate and @sunflower96 sorry to hear your stories but welcome to this lovely support network. Look forward to sharing BFPs with you all soon

@VP91x yeah it was a little tough. Luckily as I said she was great and didn’t talk about it too much. My mum just text me saying I did really well and she’s really proud, so I’m glad I didn’t give any sadness away. I’m looking forward to getting cracking on the OPKs. I have a small hangover today which I feel like a bit of a fool for 🙄. I’ve cut alcohol right down so now it doesn’t take much.
What did you bake at the weekend?

Wishing everyone a great week - @SmileyT this is your week 🤞🏼
Anyone else testing this week? xx

MissyBate · 08/06/2020 08:45

Thank you all for your lovely messages. I’m so sorry that you too have experienced loss. It really is the worst.

I’m so frightened about trying again but I know if I don’t do it now, I never will. This is a fear that won’t ever leave and I’m 38 soon so feel like time is ticking on.

I’m going to test next Friday, I’ve stocked up on tests but doubt I’ll be that lucky. When I found out I was pregnant in December it was only our 2nd month of trying so I felt extremely blessed (and shocked). I had horrendous hyperemesis too and spent many of the early days saying ‘I could never do this again!’ But here I am... praying for a happy ending.

Jazper · 08/06/2020 08:35

Ah @Dipsy77, I've been wondering how you've got on this weekend. Af hasn't showed for me yet. But having been a week 'late' in my first two cycles post mc (in Feb) I'm thinking it's still just delayed. Which is torment as I'm wondering when my regular 29 day cycles are going to return. I'm on CD32 now.
Good that you have the confirmation of af though, and you can try again this month. Fingers tightly crossed for you.

@WellHurrahAndHuzzah, been thinking of you too, how are you?

sunflower96 · 08/06/2020 08:32

Hi, can I join you ladies?
This group seems so lovely and supportiveSmile
In May I had a MMC with my 1st pregnancy, they were twins which shared the same sac, at my 10 week private scan they only measured 8.5 weeks and couldn't find either heartbeats. Although I'm hurting all I can think about is trying again
So sad to hear your stories I hope you all have some BFPs soon
Hopefully I can now share my journey with you all too x

VP91x · 08/06/2020 05:59

Welcome @MissyBate I am so so sorry you have experienced a loss recently. You must be so nervous right now, but sending you lots of positivity. Hope you get your positive soon ❤️

@MichT4 ah brilliant, yeah get testing for sure!
It must be bitter-sweet with your sister being pregnant, hopefully you can join her in the baby chat soon. Xx

@Niisa do you normally get that at this stage? Could be a good sign?

Dipsy77 · 08/06/2020 05:34

Af arrived for me at 2am this morning so I'm back to CD1. This is the first time since MMC in feb that I haven't spotted before AF so I now feel that my cycles are back to normal at last. So far the Ava is good I didn't realise how out my temping was so hoping this helps and this will be my month, here's hoping for a lot of BFPs this month xx

Niisa · 08/06/2020 04:01

@MissyBate so sorry to hear about your loss & praying this month is your month 💕

@SmileyT I have EVERYTHING crossed for you this week. I'm gonna be testing (early) on the 15th as I'll be around 14 dpo but app has AF down as coming on the 19th as that be CD29 so we'll see 🤷🏾‍♀️

Nausea & heartburn are currently keeping me up 😭

MichT4 · 07/06/2020 22:52

@VP91x yes I did buy some. They are arriving tomorrow from amazon so I think I’ll start testing pretty much straight away as Ava has me ovulating on Wednesday

@SmileyT at the moment I feel quite positive. I feel like this month is our month. I am unsure with the different ovulation dates but hopefully can make some sense of it. Me and OH are enjoying lots of DTD anyway.

I saw my family today, including my pregnant sister. She was really great - she bought me the second test in her 2 pack of tests. So hopefully that’s good luck
But she made some comments about having a baby etc and being pregnant and it made me feel quite sad.

I just hate the waiting. Just wish we could know if it’s going to happen

@Chickoletta sounds very positive to me. When are you testing? Xx

HE88 · 07/06/2020 22:33

Hi @MissyBate welcome to the thread, sorry for your loss, I hope you find this group supportive and you get your bfp soon. Xx

SmileyT · 07/06/2020 22:30

Welcome @MissyBate and so sorry for your loss ❤️ hope this is a lucky month for you and you get your rainbow baby xx

@MissyBate so sorry for your loss ❤️💔 it's scary and hard starting to try again, but we're all here for support!

MissyBate · 07/06/2020 22:05

Hi Ladies,

Please may I join. 7 days dpo and I’m feeling scared to death. Feels like a huge leap of faith to be trying again after losing our boy when I was 17 weeks pregnant in March.

SmileyT · 07/06/2020 21:36

@1990EM I'll be testing on Wednesday or Thursday, I tested a couple days early last month and saw my first ever BFN and I actually found it quite calming as I was 12dpo there was no line and I could stop guessing, but do what feels right for you and feel free to vent whenever you feel like it on here x

@Chickoletta and @Niisa sounds promising to me🤞

@MichT4 it was sooooo stressful trying to dtd back at my parents lol! We discovered we are definitely not the type of oeople who enjoy the thrill of potentially getting caught!! 🤞🏻 being in the new house takes away some of the stress and makes us more successful in the trc journey!

VP91x · 07/06/2020 20:53

@2020wish ahh brilliant news that you're getting your peak much earlier, I hope I follow suit! Enjoy getting down and dirty 💦🤣

@elliew818 haha that made me giggle - definitely not TMI. I don't think I ever looked down there when I was PG but I've seen loads of threads where women have noticed changes!

@Chickoletta that's crazy you're getting so much. I would take that as a great sign for sure!

@Tink20058 how are you getting on?

Chickoletta · 07/06/2020 20:05

Thanks everyone. Will just keep fingers crossed tightly for us all.

@elliew818 - I’m not sure there’s such a thing as TMI on this thread is there?!

elliew818 · 07/06/2020 19:56

@peonyrose87 glad to hear your body is back to normal and that sounds like a lot of DTD 👏
Sorry to hear you're struggling @1990EM and I totally understand how you feel, you feel so hopeful and almost like you deserve to get pregnant easily after having suffered a MC.

@Chickoletta that does sound like a good sign to me. I try not to symptom spot (and usually fail) but changing your jeans is quite a big one! I've never had symptoms until I was about 6 weeks though. Actually last pregnancy my vagina looked a bit weird before AF was due, sorry TMI 😳

Niisa · 07/06/2020 19:27

@Chickoletta I'm also 6/7 dpo - not been testing this month so not 100% sure. I've been feeling very nauseous & have had the craziest heartburn 😩

Tink20058 · 07/06/2020 19:27

@Chickoletta hi yes I had symptoms early, had bumps on my nipples, really thirsty and felt sick from around 6dpo I got a bfp on 8dpo and now I’m nearly 8 weeks pregnant so hopefully fingers crossed it sounds positive fingers crossed for you xxx

peonyrose87 · 07/06/2020 19:10

@2020wish that definitely looks promising!!

Chickoletta · 07/06/2020 19:09

Please talk some sense into me...

I’m 6dpo today and have been feeling so sick and unwell all day - like a hangover but haven’t been drinking. I’ve also got so much clear discharge that I’ve had to change my jeans. I’m trying not to get my hopes up but this is how I felt at about 6 weeks with my twin pregnancy...
Has anyone experienced really early symptoms and then gone on to a BFP?
