TTC after MC - June 2020 (Part 2)

@2020wish and don't worry I will join you with testing early ... I have enough cheapies haha 😂

I've just had the hospital ring me up to confirm my scan appointment even after confirming with them multiple times that they have definitely noted I've had a mc 😞

Anyone else experience this?
I understand they're under a lot of pressure and strain but it just completely knocked the wind out of me especially at a time I felt I was doing quite well.

@HopeForRainbowbaby I read this too! I think it was in Expecting Better by Emily Oster, but I put all the pregnancy and parenting books in the loft after the MC and haven't gotten them back out again so I can't check the reference or whether she thought the evidence supported or was insufficient (she's pretty blunt on evidence quality, which I like).

Sadly, the Amazon LookInside doesn't go that far... anyone else?

@HopeForRainbowbaby I like that theory. Women the stronger and more resilient species 💪🏼

Thank you I do remember the post. I know it’s silly to worry about one day, we DTD every day previous to yesterday for quite a stretch. And too late to change it now anyway! So will just get back on the case 😂

@2020wish all signs sound promising ! Finger crossed for BFP! Tomorrow should be more visible ☺️

@MichT4 a while ago I have shared stats on this chat ( is there a search option ? I can't imagining scrolling so many pages 😅? on probability of getting pregnant per different day prior to OV and on OV. And sperm can survive up to 5/6 days . So don't worry!

Also recently I was reading about gender specific sperm. lady sperm is slower and survives longer and therefore, it appears that it is better to have intercourse several days before OV. Guy sperm is fast, and therefore it is more likely to have boy if intercourse is done very close to ovulation. Any experiences or ideas on this, ladies ?

Let’s hope it’s just an early line and soon it’ll be nice and clear 🤞🏼

I will do, thanks @2020wish. I already summonsed OH to bed this afternoon so back to another flurry of DTD. All that effort last week 🙄😂

@Micht4 tbh I don’t think you can even see it in a pic. I honestly think maybe I’m getting line eyes and nothing is there at all lol hahah why did I start testing at 7dpo

Just get DTD tonight and every night until ewcm disappears

Oooh that’s exciting! Do you have a picture? 🤞🏼

Thanks @2020wish. I hope so. Now I’m panicking as we didn’t DTD yesterday, thought I was totally out 🙄. Definitely teaching me a thing or two about stressing too much about all this

@DBTJ it’s hard to say, just see how it goes over the next day or two. It could just be a shorter cycle after MC or FC it’s IB 🤞🏼

Took another frer this morning and it looks like a faint line has tried to appear haha and I say tried because it’s just the edges of the line but nothing in the middleS my sister can see it. But it’s not a full line and could just be an evap or a dud test.

I did throw up in my mouth this morning first thing sorry tmi and had to swallow it as I was barely awake and still lying in bed. Not sure if that means anything

@micht4 sounds as if ur fertile now.. maybe it was ur body trying to ovulate before but due to stressing it was holding off ? Fingers crossed for you

@DBTJ fingers crossed it was IB

@mitchT4

I had back to back MC so this would be my 1st period. Last Mc May 22nd.
It just started today no need for a pad yet

@DBTJ is this tour first cycle post MC? Sorry, I know you’d have said but I get confused!
Have you had it just today? Do you need a pad?

Questions, questions 😂

@chloedancer897 I've never had it before so not sure what I'm looking for or if it's meant to come with cramps.
Mine is deffo more than spotting but less than af.

Lmaooo @michT4 your forgiven.
Its less than af but not spotting, slight cramp but not painful

Or @DBTJ 🙄

@dptj I agree, we should have more lessons on this stuff

What’s the bleeding like? Could definitely be IB?

@DBTJ do you think it's an implantation bleed?

@VP91x yeah I tried to track in one month and had absolutely no idea what it was telling me, so I stopped.
What is this journey like 😂😂

@VP91x I'm going to be a cervix geek now too.

Yes the messages are annoying, but I guess it's my first month actually tracking any of it, so I expect it will be. Hopefully in future it'll all become my crazy trend. When I was looking at the Ava charts online, a lot were a bit erratic the first month - like you said, it's to look back on when there's more data.

Are you still holding?

I spent the morning googling Ava charts 🤓🤯

@VP91x and specifically Ava showed RHR up, temp slightly down, breathing rate the same 🤷🏻‍♀️

@VP91x I didn’t do any yesterday typically because I assumed the month was a bit of a write off. I did the one this morning which was a standard ‘high’ reading. Just don’t know what to make of this EWCM now as well. I’ll do the occasional OPK but I’m aware of the dehydration so I need to balance the two I think. Unless I’m taking the hold too seriously. What’s the chances it would have peaked yesterday 🙄
Ava still says I ovulated on Saturday, I guess because I had the little temp peak. See what happens over the next few nights I guess.
I’m putting this month down to a research phase 😂😂

It definitely sounds like your body is definitely doing what it’s meant to, the peak is bound to just creep up on you now. I have no idea what to feel for with my cervix, especially open or closed. What do you even feel for?

@VP91x 😂😂😂😂 effing flashy bastardo. I’m surprised it hasn’t been launched out the window. Looking forward to seeing the OPK.

I just don’t know what that means for my cycle or LP if i haven’t ovulated. If I have the normal LP we are talking a 37-38 day cycle 🙄
