TTC after MC - July/August 2020 (Thread 8)

@MichT4 my creamy stuff was quite runny! Enough to come out into my knickers. Watery stuff is meant to be the most fertile after egg white I read. I’ve had egg white this morn tho lol. I’m never straight forward though 🙈😅 @VP91x and micht4 thanks for garden compliments 😁

Also, Tmi advice, I had a load of CM, really watery but also a bit white in colour. Would that be creamy or watery?

SORRY! What a bond we share girls xx

@Northernsoul90 aww hope ur OK love me and my friend recieved the same after ours. Its really appauling and insensitive how they don't check ur notes before sending stuff like that out.

@2020wish
That is lovely stong lines 😁 congrats again x

@Runnergirl1 I must have missed ur post yesterday love so sorry to hear ur going through that ❤xx

@Pugprincess @VP91x @1990EM thank you

@Pugprincess your garden looks lovely - like a show garden! Very impressed

@VP91x nap sounds great. I'm still in my pjs! Need to shower before going out. I could honestly sit here all day.

@1990EM thank you for your positivity - it all helps! It could be a fluke, or maybe the OPK was. Just so weird how I got that spike after it, and now this.

I just did another OPK, and it's dark ish. What a minefield!

@VP91xThanks. Just been out on a walk and I had run back thinking it was period but not. I seem to have some sort of fluids.
I’m going to order some ovulation tests for the next cycle. Any recommendations which are the best?

@MichT4 hope it was somehow a fluke reading.. temping is honestly no joke and can be iffy at the best of times, it's by no means foolproof and I think that these warmer nights make a difference to our sleep patterns too which can affect readings. So good that you're feeling positive about everything, I'm feeling positive for you too!

@MichT4 enjoy the bbq and let us know if you do the opk, 🤞🏻
We’re not up to a lot just shopping (got to nip b and m for some garden bits were working on) and food shop at Aldi. Got DH bro and wife visiting later this aft so I’ve got to get on top of house at some point lol. Attached a picture of my garden project, need some more white gravel 😅

@2020wish such lovely line progression! Happy birthday!

@Runnergirl1 aw I don’t blame you for not wanting to be out much. I didn’t either. Every big thing for me seemed to pass when I was on toilet having a wee, I’m guessing that must help push things out?

@MrsK21 fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻 I noticed discharge a couple of days before my ov pains.

Something I’ve thought about and I don’t know if it was the same for others but mc seems badly portrayed on tv? I was terrified when I had my first proper gush of red on toilet cause I thought it all just came out really quickly and wasn’t going to stop in between like a period. Like things on tv don’t show how long a process this actually is? I had no idea.

@MrsK21 @SmileyT you're right, it's early and I have time. I feel oddly positive this month, which is strange given it's the first cycle. Not in that I'm sure I'll be PG, but just positive, and I guess if I haven't ovulated, then I have another chance to catch a sticky bean, and that's not a bad thing.

How is everyone today? Much planned on this grey looking Saturday?

xx

@Hayleylou89 ahh I'm glad that they have reviewed it and started treatment early to try and avoid/ delay other more intrusive treatments x

@2020wish happy birthday 🥳 so nice to have some great news to celebrate this birthday x

@Northernsoul90 I'm so sorry this has happened I've heard a few ladies on here say that they received the same, such bad communication in some of these hospitals 😭

@MichT4 Well like you said it was still early, I also found that first cycle after my MC my temps were a bit erratic, as always with BBT I feel like you only get the clear picture at the end of the cycle unfortunately, keep that PMA and keep enjoying DTD and it will all come together x

@Mommybear05 how are you feeling? xx

@DBTJ attached a pic of the size of sch compared to sac... how are you doing? x

@MichT4 sorry to see that temperature drop but maybe your body is just gearing up for a later ovulation again and you'll get another peak on opks soon?
I went to see my parents on the south coast, change of scenery was lovely and so relaxing!

@Northernsoul90 oh that's so horrible to be reminded like that. I had similar. Then also got a letter through post saying I'd missed appointments etc, OH ended up calling midwives and being really firm basically as gentle reminders clearly weren't working!

@smileyT haha yep I did! A week away from OH and I'm hopeful all the relaxing has helped spur some kind of hormonal balance change and my ovulation may have restarted again. Getting lots of watery CM today, the last couple of weeks it's been non existent / sticky - maybe an end is in sight for my 59 day cycle!

@Northernsoul90 I'm doing the same really. I'm going to try and do an OPK today, but we are out for a friends birthday bbq (great day for it ⛈) so it depends if I can get a good hold beforehand. I'll go back to doing one a day if I can, and DTD every other day at least.
I knew this month would be unpredictable so there's no point trying to hang on to anything I guess. Just felt like for once I wouldn't be waiting for ever to ovulate, although a week or so thinking I might have has made the time go quicker xx

@2020wish Happy birthday! Lovely line progression on your tests too 🥳💕 Thank you, it just feels really insensitive doesn't it! It will be tough for you but at least once you've seen her the 'first time' hurdle will be over. Sending hugs xx

Thank you @Pugprincess sending hugs right back to you! 💕 The milestones and reminders are so hard aren't they xx

@MichT4 Im unsure of the temps I've been really useless at taking mine. I know that bbt is not an absolutely definite measure though and lots of factors can affect it, hopefully you did ovulate 🤞🏼 I'm unsure as well I got the peak clear blue and I did have some pinching pains that I normally get but I wasn't doing cheapy opks properly (as in holding and taking them at regular times) and I never saw a peak on one. I also wasn't temping. I think I'm just going to continue dtd every other day and hope for the best whilst treating this as my tww xx

@Pugprincess. I feel ok in myself to be honest after Wednesday anyway. Still bleeding though like a period and like I say I have strong painkillers if I contract again. Hopefully this will expel soon and I can move on. That is a lovely thought.

Yesterday was better at hospital but only because I asked all the questions - worked out by researching everything. It’s a horrible time now though as I know what’s to come IN The next few Days which makes me not want to venture out too far x

@MichT4 it frustrating I’m sure thinking u are in the tww then not. I hope it happens soon for you love!

@Pugprincess that’s true, it does make it a bit easier. It’s going to be hard not telling her later x

@Hayleylou89 I’m glad they are looking after you. It must be nerve wracking but it sounds like you are getting what you need and I think it’s a good idea to get checked before holiday otherwise you might not enjoy being away. Are you hoping they do give you the stitch?

@Northernsoul90 oh no that’s horrible. Today is a bad one for me too as I should have been going to my ten week private scan today that I had to cancel 😞 hugs xx

@2020wish Happy birthday 🥳 hope seeing your pregnant friend goes better than you’re thinking. Least you can think to yourself that you have another bundle of joy in you, it would be so much harder if you didn’t have that I think 💭

@2020wish normally late, I have long cycles. Last month was really long as I had what seemed to be a failed ovulation attempt and then ovulated a little later on.
Just know it can happen sooner, and I started spotting a week before the bleeding, so took the OPKs and got the peak. All seemed to be lining up for an earlier ovulation.
It is what it is though, will just keep with it xx

Gosh the 2ww is really tough this time! X

@MichT4 thank you for the codes. I agree- it’s so good to get away!

@SmileyT love the one sore boob thing haha. And you have a scan date! It’s great to have something to work towards

@VP91x aw I really hope they give you some options for your appointment on Monday. I’ll be thinking of you

It’s possible then that u may ovulate over the next few days as you are only CD14, what day do u usually ovulate in?

@2020wish I don't think so, but I guess it's a possibility. It's no big deal really, I'm only CD14 if heavy bleeding was day 1. Just when you think it might have happened and had all the signs, it's disheartening to see this. I had one drop and was sure this morning it would have gone back up, but not to be.

@Northernsoul90 that's really rubbish they did that. I'd definitely make a call on Monday and make them aware. It's really unacceptable

xx

@SmileyT I have another in two weeks,hopefully all is well by then. Do you remember the size of yours.
