TTC after MC - July 2020 (Thread 6)

@Pugprincess thank you. If you have anymore questions you know where I am :) xx

@2020wish ah ok awww good luck fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Will be watching and waiting for news x

@Pugprincess aspirin advice verifies. Some advise taking it from around 3dpo. Some advise taking it from your first BFP. I took it from 3dpo as I lose my pregnancies early and feel it’s too late to make an impact starting it once I get the positive . X

@Girlmum83 how r u?

@Girlmum83 thank you 🙏🏻

@2020wish ok thanks so just so I’m clear and understanding you don’t take aspirin until actually pregnant? X

@2020wish I have pretty awful eyesight and rarely see anything when people post possible faint lines up but can see that line for sure even without my glasses on 😊 . 🙏🤞🏼 For a stronger developing line in the coming days

@Pugprincess current uk guidelines on aspirin for fertility and miscarriage prevention is 150mg a day.. usually taken at night. (It used to be 75mg ). It’s 81mg in US. Different consultants advise to either start it when u get ur BFP and others say after ovulation has occurred. I started it after ovulation as I lose my pregnancies quite early so I thought it best to take earlier than a BFP.

The cream is really important you no don’t take before ovulation as the increased progesterone can stop ovulation. So u need to make sure I have deffo ovulated then you start it from 1dpo twice a day. If u get a bfn when af is due then u stop it to allow af to come. X

@2020wish wow so how aspirin do you take each day? And the cream have you been using that when ttc or just recently when potentially preg? Or is it an after ovulation thing to use? So many questions sorry xx

@MichT4 thank you 🙏🏻 I’m praying. Yes only take it if u feel comfortable. I know myself that I am safe with a low dose one and if anything it will reduce my risk of stroke 😂. My doctor wouldn’t prescribe it for me as she said she’s not knowledgeable enough in the area but that she does know the recurrant mc clinic prescribe it and she believes it works and she has me referred.. she then ended the phone call saying that she can’t stop me going and buying aspirin myself and taking it lol so that to me was basically the green light lol so I rang her back and just advised her that I was taking it on my own accord and just making my doctor aware

@Pugprincess I’m so nervous.. we want this so bad... trying to stay relaxed and allow all the good vibes to help my uterus lol yea any month I have not caught I have never had a faint line. I had one grey Indent line but none with colour . I’m using clear blue 6 days early tests. They have always been 100% for me where as I’ve never got on with frer. Even when I had digital tests telling me I was 2-3 weeks frer or other pink dye tests where neg.. even after scans and everything I think I’m one of the snap percentages that don’t react with pink dye until I have High hcg levels lol so strange. The cream you rub on morning and night alternating areas (Tummy, thighs, wrists) I got it on eBay after being advised on the mc forums on here it’s called now progesterone

@Lollol86 I’m still holding onto hope for u. Ur not out until af comes x

Yes @2020wish I can see a line too 😄. Tentative congratulations, but I’m sure that line will be getting darker in the next few days.

I’ve read a bit about aspirin but a lot say to always have it prescribed, don’t just take it. Not sure what harm it would do but it makes me nervous x

@2020wish I can definitely see a line in those pictures. I’m pretty confident I’m not. I don’t have any boob pain and I’ve always had it at this stage with all of my pregnancies x

@2020wish I think your test is looking really positive. I’ve done many many many preg tests over these years and have never ever had a faint line even after leaving them out past their time. Obviously I don’t want to get your hopes up but so far it looks good. Keep testing each morning to see if it gets stronger? Are you using a sensitive test?

That sucks that they make you wait till you have had 3 mc 😔 how does the progesterone cream work? What do you do with it? X

@Lollol86 my pregnancy I carried the furthest I didn’t get my BFP til 14dpo x

@MichT4 yes I did. A very faint line showed, its blue in colour in person. My partner can see it and he’s blind... he’s getting excited but I’m nervous ... I’ve looked back and didn’t even get a hint of line at this stage in my previous pregnancies. So I know it could amount to nothing. I’m 8/9dpo Read an article on here about a scientist talking about evap lines and explaining that they aren’t a thing. It the line is grey it’s just saturated urine sticking to the test line. but if the second line has any amount a colour in it at all it’s hcg and that it’s impossible to turn to a colour without hcg present even if left all day so what most people consider an evap line is actually a chemical pregnancy they have picked up. Ugh 😩 mc has definitely ruined they joy of this. Can u see anything? Camera is crap.

@Pugprincess yes they refer u after the third, all three of mine have been this year :( but unfortunately the recurrent mc clinic is closed due to covid so my gp done a few tests which all came back normal . During my second mc they also scan my womb and said all looked fine. But blood clotting disorders run in my family (mother) so even tho mine came back normal, I’m unsure if it’s on the lower or high end of normal so I’m trying the aspirin. Speaking with ladies who have actually went to the clinic for investigations and had all normal tests also they said they were still advised by certain consultants to try aspirin so I thought sod it I’ll give it a go. I’m also taking progesterone cream this tome round also as I now know I can get pregnant.. it’s just keeping it is the issue

@chloedancer897 some of the girls on here recommend and take calc Fluor during their tww, it’s meant to help with implantation x

@2020wish I’m 13 dpo x

@2020wish totally get that and I already feel that after one to be honest so I can’t imagine 3. After 3 do they look into you more investigation wise? Like maybe a hormone issue or something? I read about people taking progesterone in early preg to keep it.

I’m attaching a pic of my super healthy breakfast 😋

@2020wish did you test again this morning? x

@Pugprincess I’m not contradicted in any way so I thought why the hell not lol 😂 hoping it works after 3 losses im willing to try just about anything

@chloedancer897 ah yea don’t take that then lol ive just started the Pom juice myself so fx. Glad you and OH have spoken about ur plans. Fx you have ur rainbow baby on the way before dec!

@2020wish ooo think I may need to get some pomegranates at the very least! I did buy aspirin once for that reason but I didn’t dare take it lol

@Pugprincess I feel the same way. I want to know I've done everything in my power. I'd say if we aren't pregnant by December I'm just not trying anymore. I can't continue doing it.

@2020wish I have asthma so aspirin is contraindicated for me. I'll try the Pom juice and just drink gallons of it and hope for the best!😂
