TTC after MC - July 2020 (Thread 6)

@VP91x thank you. I just don’t want another 39/40 day cycle. The wait for possible ovulation is just a little too long.

@SmileyT yes I will track. I want to know if I’m ovulating as last time I just assumed I was. It will be more relaxed, just so I know I am still doing what I can. Just so frustrating to think it could be 4 weeks before I ovulate if the last cycle is anything to go by. That’s why I wish they would just not be stingy with the blood tests as there could be an easy boost somehow.

I have an incredible urge to take this into my own hands a little bit, it seems unfair it can just keep happening. It won’t beat me and I’m not giving up on my body, eggs or his swimmers just yet

xx

@MichT4 I'm glad that work was a good distraction 🙏 sometimes it helps just to have to focus on other things, there will definitely be good days and not so good days but whatever you feel is okay. Are you going to be tracking this month? In a more routine less obsessive fashion did I read? And yes to hounding the Drs at the end of the day it isn't their money they're spending and I think we all feel like if we are doing something we feel more in control xx

@VP91x yeah I'd definitely do it tonight, don't want you to feel like you missed a chance if you think you'll peak tomorrow. Would be so good if the iso has worked straight away and makes your ovulation earlier. I had 5 flashys this month so maybe that is the lucky number x

@Baba458 definitely try again with FMU or SMU I have everything crossed for you x

@Chickoletta enjoy your gin lovely and sounds like you have made the right decision for you and your family right now, enjoy those wonderful children you have and the life you have built x

@SmileyT I'm 12dpo tomorrow. I've had a touch of nausea this afternoon too. AF is due Thursday/Friday so I'm still holding out hope xx

Thanks to you all for your kindness. I’m ok and do know deep down that it wasn’t my fault. As lots of you say though, we do look for things to blame in these situations.

We are going to stop trying and concentrate on all of the other wonderful things in our life now, including two amazing, healthy, happy children who give us so much joy.

I wish you all so much love and luck for your TTC journeys - there are so many wonderful stories of rainbow babies out there, I just feel that time has run out for me and it’s time to draw a line. So grateful for the support I’ve always found here. I’ll loiter first a bit so that I can see all of those BFPs which are just around the corner. Very unmumsnetty hugs to you all, I’m off for a long bath and a large gin!

@SmileyT work was a godsend. I was so distracted and feel happy (ish) back on the bus. Obviously I’d rather have had a sticky bean but it’s not to be this time. I’m relieved it’s coming out quickly. I’m going to call the docs tomorrow and try and be firm for hormone blood tests - I’m worried it’s something simple like low progesterone that they can just supplement.

I may be running on adrenaline and will crash soon but for now I’m keeping my chin up.

Glad you were distracted today too.

@VP91x i need your brain. I was in Tesco and bought SI but I don’t know why. For some reason I’m scared to take it. I’m worried it’ll throw other hormones off balance. Have you read anything to suggest that might happen?
Also, what would your thoughts be on using it in the first cycle post MC?

xx

@VP91x your stable temps screwed up the data for FF, hopefully it'll update itself when you get your peak... i had to discard 1 temp for it to understand me in the end 😂 how has your day been? Love how the MIL being there can't even stop you during fertile week 👌🏾

@Baba458 when is 12dpo? Wednesday? 🤞

@DBTJ that's what my line looked like at 13dpo on a cheapie so I think that is good line progression 🙌🏾 glad the original results weren't negative though and hope it goes well on Thursday xx

@Renna thanks lovely, I'm feeling super calm and positive today definitely better being busy at work, weekend had way too much time to worry. Sorry people around you are having a tough time, it really can take its toll on you, make sure you look after yourself maybe a bit of meditation 🧘‍♀️

@littletandme @MrsK21 @BabyNR1 hoping that those lines develop over the next couple of days 🤞 🤞

@MichT4 how was it at work? I'm all good thanks, such a busy day at work just got in and actually didn't think about it all for about 5hrs today which is progress 🙏

@Wishingfornumber2 that scene in workin moms really did stick with me, like wtf!? No supplements, no bum in the air and pregnant 😩

@Chickoletta ahh I'm so sorry to hear it was a chemical sending you lots of love x

@Chickoletta I'm so sorry dear :( it so heartbreaking to hear your news. We are here when you feel like talking or not. Big hug❤️

@Chickoletta so sorry ❤️xx

@Chickoletta so sorry 2 hear that. Don't give up hope my cousin tried for 11years and in the end she now has a 2 year old and a 3month old. Miracles do happen might happen when you least expect

@VP91x @MichT4 @SmileyT Just a little update @Northernsoul90 results have come back and nothing was found however I need to go in another review on Thursday. The saga continues

@chloedancer897 when will you be testing hcg? That sounds super positive with a high OPK, I read about this on another thread too that it can indicate a BFP!

@HopeForRainbowbaby I'm between 10-12 DPO. I'm unsure because I never got a peak OPK, just a bunch of high readings for about 4 days on the trot and I haven't had an AF since my MC. My poor body is all over the show
I don't think I'll be convinced that it's a real BFP until I see a stronger line as it's ever so faint! I've got FRERs arriving from amazon tomorrow for retesting x

@mrsssk I meant @mrsk21

@mrsssk congratulations ! Wishing you healthy 9 months 😘 btw how many dpo are you ?

So sorry to hear this @Chickoletta. Easy to feel like it but as the others have said it’s nothing you have done wrong. Big hugs to you. X

@Chickoletta I'm so sorry to hear you are having a chemical, please don't blame yourself for this. Be kind to yourself and whatever you decide to do about ttc we are all here for support. Xx

@Northernsoul90 thank you honey

@Chickoletta it’s so easy to blame ourselves. I’m guilty of it also after having an early loss after sex but that’s just us trying to make sense of the lost by blaming something that caused it to go wrong when in reality it was just never going to progress. Don’t blame yourself. Hugs xx

@chloedancer897 I didn’t but oh how interesting! Have you tested since? When will u do a hcg? I’m dpo 4/5 today. Femometer is saying 5DPO but I think 4.

@Baba458 Sorry tagged the wrong person! 🤦🏽‍♀️ really hope it's a bfp for you @BabyNR1 that was supposed to say! X

@Chickoletta I'm so sorry ❤️❤️

@2020wish did you see my post yesterday? Got a blazing positive OPK d9dpo. Smiley said she had one too before her BFP!

@Chickoletta I’m so sorry it’s a CP - it’s so hard, I am sending you all the love xxx

Really hope it's a bfp for you @Baba458 🤞🏼
