TTC after MC - June 2020 (Part 3)

@MichaT4 thanks hun:) you've made me feel better already xx I've had a stressful day too ... took puppy to the vets ...£200 down ... have insurance so can claim most of it back but its obvs a mission to do so ... plus its not really the money I just wanna make sure shes okay . Shes already finished one weeks antibiotics. She has a weird gagging cough and also think she may have a UTI so they took a urine sample today... takes after me ... I'm prone to them hahah. But she is like my little baby helping me through these tough times so just hope shes okay !! 😊 xxxx

Maybe I’ll tell him he better get his best swimmers out so I have other stuff to buy. Otherwise it’s more baskets, cushions and throws 😂😂

@Renna ahh to see the post ovulation peak! 😂

I think it is expensive, and will come into its own after a few months of data gathering. Although I hope you don’t need it for any more than this one. I got it because I’d be rubbish at traditional temping. I need to be spoon fed!
You’ve definitely had some upheaval this month. I honestly wouldn’t even consider them too much, just use them for reference. You’ve had a lot going on, so I’d just switch off tonight, look after yourself and see the month out. And you never know....it might look different because it is different 🤞🏼

@VP91x yeah me too! It spurs me on that he hates them so much. And pillows on the bed 😂

Thank you so much everybody. And I have to say, you have all kept me sane since my MC, I've been keeping up to date with this thread every day and it's kept me going 💕

@chloedancer897 I'm CD27 now, my cycles vary from 28 days to 30 days (usually more 30) so was expecting AF Saturday. I started bleeding from MC 21st June, got lots of EWCM on the 4th July so DTD, got the strongest OPK on the 5th July but still not as dark or darker than the control line. Then DTD 6th July and 7th July. The only thing I did different was trying to track ovulation. I have been testing so much this 2WW and all negative, last test before today was Monday and that was stark white negative. I've had a few symptoms the same this month as my MC pregnancy and some new ones. What made me test today was that I've come out in horrendous cystic type spots all over my face (hardly ever get spots) and VVV constipated 😬 sorry TMI. Even stopped taking pregnacare yesterday thinking that's what was doing it. I'm praying this one sticks 🤞

This was the last time I did temping couple months ago got a good ovualtion dip and then the dip the day before AF arrived and I just knew then that AF was gonna show because of that dip before the cover line xx

@2020wish please don't lose hope yet. You still have time xx

@MichT4 yeah I'm new to ava only been using it last few weeks in this cycle. I'll attach a pic . Tbh for the price of it I thought I'd tell you more like what your data means etc . I can normally really rely on femometer BBT . Last time I did temp with it I got a good dip at ovualtion then I got a dip the day before AF arrived so its was really reliable. But I probably cant look into temping too much in general as with my new puppy my sleep is broken. I was up at 11pm last night and 2am and then around 4.30am then managed to get another hour or so sleep this morning before I started work. But quite restless as I'm listening out for the dog . So I'm not sure if I can rely on either of them . The ovualtion dip I got wasnt even very good when previous months I temped I got a good dip for that. Had a very stressful few days since end of last week too with agg with step sons mum . AF due any time between today and saturday based on different apps. Just not feeling hopeful. Tough times xx
And I wont be testing until shes late lol I just cant face the BFN xxx

@VP91x OK well you'll see me here panicking on Friday if the damn temps dont shift themselves! It'll be like red bowl gate all over again

I just bought some clothes from H&M and a storage basket that OH will moan about as another 'decorative' accessory, so I'm feeling even better.

@IWM20 congrats! Amazing news! Can you tell us what you did this cycle and how many days DPO you are? X

Thanks @Renna and @HopeForRainbowbaby. Just hope this is the real deal

@Renna as you know I have been doing lots of Ava chart research and I think first month, a lot of people choose to back up with the normal BBT method until it's all consistent, so you never know - your Femometer might be right. How much have your Ava ones dropped? Have you got a pic?

@2020wish I think it's all a bit confusing when it comes to exact dates. As your first peak was 1pm, you could well have ovulated that day though if it's 12-36 hours.

I'd definitely say get the wine. I know some prefer not to do some of these things when TTC, but you have to have the balance I think, and have the things that aren't necessarily about TTC. I think most of us fell first time with much less awareness, so go for it!

I will definitely be treating myself later @VP91x. Whatever all this means, I feel more positive and less stressed today - it obviously helps to see things appear to be telling me the right things. No point now getting bogged down with long cycles (see - finding something else to worry about). Just DTD, drink a bit of wine and enjoy the positives.

Until tomorrow.....haha

@MichT4 it looks positive!
@IWM20 congratulations!!Wohoo 🥳 I wish you healthy pregnancy 🤰

@2020wish im also thinking of wine already. If I get period, I'm sooo drinking .... but you are not out ! Hmm maybe try to focus on something else to help you relax ? Series ? Movies ? Some works at home?

Hi all, can I join?

Currently cycle day 15. Got pregnant on last months cycle but turned out to be a chemical. Not sure where ovulation is, should be now according to my app but who knows, I’ve heard it can be all over the place. Been DTD every day since last Friday, more so cos we’ve just felt like it! Having really bad bloating and cramping today so wondering whether ovulation is correct! We’ll see!

@MichT4 hooray for your peak 😘 x
@IWM20 amazing congratulations xxxx thanks for sharing xx
@2020wish so sorry to hear how you are feeling hun xx I know exactly what you mean . I'm waiting for AF to turn up and just have a feeling its deffo coming in next few days . My ava temps have gradually dropped but my femometer temps gone up but I reckon ava more reliable. And just have a feeling not my month again and if its not I just keep getting this over helming feeling like giving up too like you. I cant imagine how you feel getting your Hope's up getting pregnant but not sticking but take the positive that you can get pregnant rather easily and hopefully you'll have some answers soon about making them stick or your aspirin may work xxx sending a virtual hug xxx

@MichT4 from my tracking it seems I ovulated on the 8th even tho I got my peak that day? Or maybe I’m one day behind and I have no idea lol

Yea I might buy that wine

Sister just sent her scan pics. I feel very calm which is unexpected. May hit me later. Might need to buy and chocolate in case 🥂

@VP91x normally 34-35 days. Although I’ve just looked and last month was 38 😳 I didn’t even realise that. I think maybe because my cycle started so light I wasn’t sure on CD1. Pre MC they were 34-35 and coming down each month after stopping the pill. MC seems to have thrown that out again. Glow is telling me it’ll be 40 days if my LP stays the same

@2020wish sorry you are feeling that way. Fair to say we’ve all been there and I’ve had a few of those moments this month. You’re not out this month yet, and if you are then there’s nothing to say it’s not going to happen really soon.
Is there anything you can distract yourself with. What about wedding plans?
And buy the wine! A glass isn’t going to hurt (or more) xx

Im feeling so deflated. Feel like buying a bottle of wine. Feel so tearful all day. Don’t even know why. Honestly feel like I should give up all this ttc and returning to work and just maybe trying again in 2 years time after wedding. Obviously I don’t want too stop but I feel like it’s consuming me and it’s all I can think about

Thanks @2020wish. Any clues how long after the peak we are expected to ovulate?

@IWM20 Congratulations!! Amazing news. How clear they are when the other one was so faint!
Yay!!

@IWM20 woohoo!!! So exciting!!
