TTC after MC - June 2020 (Part 3)

@Northernsoul90 Hi, I just found out I'm pregnant in my first cycle after my MC.. I think they used to advise to wait 3 months but not any more as some studies have shown no benefit in waiting. To be honest I thought you had to have at least one period before you would ovulate again but not so in my case. I was fortunate- my HCG dropped to zero in 2 weeks despite being over 9 weeks along when I miscarried. That probably did help as I think I ovulated just 3 or 4 days later. I wasmt sure if i wamted to try again so soon but i also thought due to other fertitily issues that i couldnt afford to skip a month. It's hard either way as now I feel nearly guilty for getting pregnant again so quickly, but i know i would have also been devastated to see a BFN. Sending lots of love ❤

@2020wish refreshing this page like mad waiting for your tests to arrive 🙈

Hi ladies! Hope you are all well and don’t mind me jumping on this thread... I just have a question about how long you waited before TTC (trying to conceive) after miscarriage. Did you wait until you had your first period at least? I am really keen to start trying again but my body isn’t there yet as I only miscarried very recently (had mva procedure done last Monday). I’m just not sure when to start trying to track ovulation etc - I know obviously it would be a lot easier to do if I waited until after my period. I’m just curious about what other ladies decided to do, I think it’s probably a very individual decision I’m just trying to listen to my body as best I can 🤞🏼.
Also forgot to add... is it only possible to ovulate once HCG levels have reached 0 or an undetectable level? I’m presuming I won’t ovulate at least until I have had a negative pregnancy test?

@Rainbowhope11 I used to be terrible at sleeping, here's what's helped me! Magnesium tablets, magnesium spray, Epsom salt baths, lavender on my pillow, falling asleep to white noise/a podcast!

@MichT4 exactly lol driving my anxiety up the wall haha

Anyone know who that user
Is that had the comments deleted?

@chloedancer897 I got inspired after our last chat and been calling around to get quotes to be seen privately-all come in at around £1000-£1500 😳 the last hospital I just talked to said £250 for a zoom call and then £300 for semen analysis, £500 for egg reserve and something else (didnt Remember) and all other tests are on top and it depends on where the consultant refers me to. Wow that's a lot. How come your consultant managed to refer you back to the NHS? That's so lucky. In which part of England roughly do you live? Tempted to try my luck and see if anything is covered on my private insurance but I highly doubt it 🙁

@Rainbowhope11 I didn’t even realise 😂 I just take it because I hate not being able to sleep, and I know OH wants to throw me out of the window when my legs twitch 🤪
Hope it works for both things xx

@MichT4 oooh I'm definitely trying this! Thank you so much 😊 I think my hormones are just out of sorts since the MC and it's affecting my sleep. This sounds like it will kill two birds with one stone! Xx

@VP91x sorry that the CB is still giving you hell lovely!

@2020wish amazon need to learn not to mess with a girl and her frers!

My tests were meant to arrive before 4pm and at half 3 the live location updates said the delivery van was 5 stops away. It’s still not here and now the delivery time is changed to 6:15 :( where are my frers???

@Rainbowhope11 I’ve started listening too h28hz frequency mediation music at night. If you YouTube it loads come up. Both me and my Dh have slept so well with it

@Rainbowhope11 actually just googled it and it says this

Why Magnesium Is Important for Becoming Pregnant
Magnesium has sometimes been called “the hormone of pregnancy.” This element helps with ensuring the right amount of blood flow to the uterus. It is also crucial for the production of progesterone, which is important for a healthy menstrual cycle.

So definitely worth a try?

@VP91x can’t hurt to get another session in!

@Rainbowhope11 I take magnesium when I have trouble sleeping. I also get twitchy legs and it helps settle those aswell. I assume it’s ok for TTC and TWW, never seen anything to say otherwise

Hey lovely ladies! I've been having trouble sleeping for the past couple days. I get into bed and then I'm wide awake until the wee hours of the morning.

Does anyone have any recommendations on what I can take to help me sleep? I'm looking for something that's going to be safe to take during the tww. My BBT chart is a complete mess now because I've not been able to sleep 😫

Yeah I agree @VP91x. The fact the CB has got that much darker must mean something. If it’s not tonight I’m sure it’ll be tomorrow - not far off at all! We’d be asking way to much to have an identical cycle each month! 😂

Although part of me wants to see you smash the shit out of the CB. I’d rather you get your static though 😃

@2020wish I’ll pay for him to have a fancy haircut if he gets me PG 🤣🤣

Hello all! Only just catching up.
Thank you @VP91x, @SmileyT and @Wishingfornumber2 for your input regarding the cb dye lines. Totally makes sense that they would be for different hormones as the test measures both oestrogen and LH.
Also, @Wishingfornumber2, here's to our compliant OH's and their dedication to Pom juice consumption 🥂

@VP91x definitely peak tomorrow that left line looks super strong now, could still come on cheapie tonight 🤞

@MichT4 hahah so funny! Bride me for better cuts after he services you lol

@VP91x how frustrating for you. Fingers crossed for ovulation soon
