TTC after MC - June/July 2020 (Part 4)

Hey ladies, I had a scan on the 8th of June and should have been 11 weeks 4 days but found out the baby had stopped growing at 8 and a half weeks, on the 12th I had a Mva carried out. I took a pregnancy test over the weekend and that is negative which gives me the green light to start trying again. I have started doing daily ovulation tests, but I’m just worried i May have already ovulated. From looking at other threads it looks like women have ovulated within 2 weeks of miscarrying. Just wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on this?

@MichT4 no, not having any symptoms really except my boobs are a bit sore! I didn't get sickness until week 6 last time so I'm not too worried. How are you?

@VP91x yeah I have a private scan booked for the 19th July when I'll be 8 weeks. As mine was a MMC last time I'm not sure it'll reassure me too much but we'll see 🤞🏻

@VP91x unfortunately this is a board meeting so I’m not sure I could get away with an email update. These are the worst at the moment because I think we all know why business isn’t as we might have expected 🙄
I’m not getting my hopes up yet, but I’ve made peace with the movement and not losing hope. Not long til I’ll know either way so might as well make the next day or two (or three) as painless as possible.

What are your plans today then? xx

@peonyrose87 glad to hear all is going well. Do you have many/any symptoms yet?

@VP91x I'm good, I'm 5+3 weeks now and it's dragging in. But all well so far 🤞🏻 is this your little girl's first day back? I'm watching piers rant away too-he annoys me so much though!

@VP91x I’m watching that too. He makes me want to punch the tv, I don’t know why I watch it 😂
Yeah I’m ok, temp stayed the same last night. I was thinking this morning that maybe those higher temps are affected by how roasting hot it was, so the drop might be less than it looks. Still half expecting it to come down again but no point worrying yet. I hoped it would go up but staying level is better than another drop. I think.
I have a meeting at 9.30 🙄 can’t be arsed with that

@wishingfornumber2 sorry it was a negative and you still don’t have any answers. Do you have any AF symptoms?

@VP91x that’s good she went into nursery ok. Hope you can enjoy some time to yourself!

So did a test and again it was negative 🤷‍♀️. CD39. Wish AF would just arrive so I can know for certain rather than be in limbo!

Aww @VP91x what a little lady you have there. Put your feet up with a cuppa and enjoy the sound of silence! 🤣 will be strange I’m sure but will be great for Bella and will give you time to relax, and most likely still watch Disney xx

@Rainbowhope11 aw uv had a long time for the hcg to dissapear havnt u! Hopefully it is a new pregnancy 🤞🏻 how cute is ur OH saying that, it was so cute u could see it like a space baby in a bubble 😂 little arm and leg buds - can u believe its like 23mm or something at 9 weeks! Next scan ill actually be 13.2 weeks but might try and bring it forward cos im too impatient and want it closer to 12 weeks really. Xx

@VP91x good luck with the nursery drop off today xx

@Eli2020 I think it’s no one else’s business what you do and in what order! Gosh, what an unwelcome response to you being nice and wishing her a happy anniversary!
We aren’t married either, and when I got PG first time, I had a wobble wondering if it was the right order but ultimately it didn’t matter. Then I MC and we were devastated and that said it all!
I think you can have a beautiful wedding whether you have a baby or not. Lots of people I’ve known have got married after babies.
The decision is yours, no one else’s. The way I see it, is if the baby doesn’t happen soon and OH pulls his finger out and proposes 😂 then we would make a decision, but I still think we would wait to get wed now. I think it’s a very strange way for your friend to think, it’s your choice (and would be regardless if you’d suffered a loss or not). And it is a totally ignorant way to think from someone who hasn’t experienced a MC.
I’m infuriated she’s made you feel like that. Do what feels right for you and OH, no one else. Whether you continue TTC or decide to pause for a wedding, both are fine and completely up to you xx

Morning ladies, not even 7 am yet and I'm already upset 😕 it's my best friends wedding anniversary today and I messaged her to wish her happy anniversary and she straight away asked me "when are we going to a wedding". I said my priority is ttc at the moment and can't imagine to put it on hold for a year or two to organise a wedding (she got pregnant straight away so not sure she feels for my journey with ttc and miscarriage). I know getting married is beautiful but having a baby is my priority and don't want to stop ttc (and especially who knows how long it could take). Then she said if you stress like this it will definitely take longer. I said that's not stressing that's purposefully putting it on hold after already having spent 7 cycles on it. And I'll be 33 this year so this would take me to 35 when we would start again and I don't want that. But she is like life is never the same after you have a baby and the wedding will never be the same. But it's just not my priority. And yes I know would be good to be married before baba arrives. Arghh but I just mentally think it will break me if we stop ttc. What do you think ladies?

@lollol86 this is the most recent thread hope that helps x

Hi everyone. I completely lost this thread but have just had a read back and caught up with everyone!

@Hayleylou89 beautiful scan pictures! So glad all is going well for you.

@Hayleylou89 you scan pic is amazing - so clear!! I’m currently on cd 11 - but have not done any opks, only temping (but my new house is loads hotter then my parents so the temps are a bit ip the spout!) OH and I decided that, as I ovulate cd14 or 15 - we’ll start drd from cd12 and just do every day (i think his swimmers and my iterus are not as attracted to each other as hubby and I am - as all our pre-ovu dtd seems to have been less successful!) When I fell pregnant this Jan - we only dtd once and it was the morning after my natural cycles all said I ovulated! Since then we have never done the day after - so that’s the secret weapon for this month!! Along with grapefruit and pomegranate juice, calc fluor, coQ10 and the seven seas vitamins 😂 We shall see lol! xx

@SmileyT it's been the summer holidays since 23rd March hasn't it 🤷🏽‍♀️🤔🙈😂 but no, I think we've got another couple of weeks to push. Having said that, I'm sharing them with school from Monday onwards, they're in mornings mon-fri. Just to make the transition a little easier for them in September. But this is excellent as will give me plenty of time to enjoy Disney+ before they get home 🤫
And all the heart eye emojis for you and your sister sharing accounts 😍 I don't have a sister but I do have two daughters and I pray they continue to be as close as they are now in to adulthood 🙏🏼

@HE88 well whatever you decide we are here for you to talk to ☺️

@Jazper yes we are all relaxed until we're not and it's so hard living cycle to cycle but honestly Disney + will make your like 100 times better 🙌🏾 my sister gave me her subscription and has my pic on there as mufasa and hers as simba and honestly makes me smile and relax every time I log on 😂 homeschooling? Is it not the bloody summer holidays yet 🙈 that Boris speech I'm dying 🤣🤣

@Jazper 😂😂😂😂
Being guided through the TWW in such a familiar fashion xx

@jazper I'm in stitches 🤣

@Re6ecc4 fingers crossed for tomorrow! X

@VP91x ahh I’m sure after the first day back she will be fine. My DS has enjoyed being back at preschool and has actually become so much more confident there in the smaller group. It then makes the time you have together even more special. Hope tomorrow goes ok. X

@Jazper your Boris speech is hilarious 🤣🤣x

@Jazper thanks I appreciate it. Thing is she has experienced a loss, 2 in fact so she should have known what I was going through. Anyway what's happened has happened I'll see how I'm feeling the next few days so will take it from there. Xx
