TTC after MC - August 2020 (Thread 11)

@MichT4 so frustrating you are still in limbo, especially while on holiday and not knowing whether you should have a drink or not 😔 definitely think it's a good sign that they are still showing though and you have the Drs to support either way when you're home x

@VP91x glad you got the pup sorted and hopefully when a little more trained you can have him back or he can find a more appropriate home, how is OH doing? xx

@fafi @chloxhunt congrats on a successful scan 🥳

@Bl0ndi3 ahh you are doing so well sticking to your healthy lifestyle plan, definitely keep it up it can only help and make you feel better in yourself x

@MrsK21 I know a lady that took the office provera before starting IVF and it was kinda spotting and then had a full flow when it was done but hopefully you are done now and onto a fresh new successful cycle, stay positive lovely x

@Northernsoul90 yeah I took calc flour throughout (about 6 a day 🤷🏾‍♀️) and then carried on after BFP until I ran out x

@MrsK21 no spotting today yet. Not had a mass of discharge though so il know if that comes out. Last two days it’s come out while walking the dog when I can’t check straight away 😕 it was only a beige colour yday tho ao was looking better x

@MrsK21 other thought is maybe the tablets are causing some contractions but actually there isn’t much left in there to come out? Hopefully your appointment will reveal more answers x

@Northernsoul90 thank you hun. I'll wait and see if I get another AF, atm it's just the cramps and a bit of spotting. OH thinks it might be the last of it making its way out. Hope he's right

@Pugprincess it was really heavy while taking the provera! The heaviest day was reminding me of my mc bleeding 😕 I'm hoping it's nothing but just feeling a bit sorry for myself while I wait for these cramps to die down.
How are you doing? Any more of that spotting? X

@MrsK21 I wonder if it will be a heavy one this time so now this will be the real deal. How heavy was it during the tablets?

@Northernsoul90 yes I couldn’t find anything about calc Fluor to say you can’t. Xx would save you some tablets and money tho 😜

@MrsK21 Sending hand hold and virtual hugs ❤️ please don't look too much into it I'm sure all will be fine. I bet you can't wait for your appointment, can you contact them in the meantime if you are worried? Xx

@BEESY90 Sending lots of hugs and hoping and praying for you that all is well 🙏🏼. I know you will be worried sick all night but it's positive that the pain has eased XX

@HE88 I think this is what @SmileyT did correct me if I'm wrong? I've looked online though and couldn't find anywhere that said you shouldn't take it throughout for a specific reason unlike the primrose oil. I hope this is right?! Xx

@HE88 I take calc Fluor throughout the cycle I don't think there is a reason to not take it throughout but it only really benefits the tww. I've continued with it because I'd forget otherwise. Xx

I mentioned yesterday I finished my AF along with Provera which I took for 10 days. Yesterday being the final tablets.
I've suddenly got intense AF like cramps this afternoon along with some light red spotting 😥 I've had a read of the Provera leaflet and it says AF can be expected 2-5 days AFTER finishing the tablets but I literally had AF whilst taking them?!

I'm hoping they don't cause a double bleed or something but in absolute cramp hell right now! Hoping this hasn't messed up my cycle and ovulation even more so.

Got my consultant follow up appointment on 27th but just after a moan and virtual hand hold 😩

Hi Ladies. Need a virtual hug. Big time. Doc has booked me to have a scan tomorrow at 11 to look for ectopic. I haven’t felt the pain in a few hours though. I told my wonderful partner. All he said was “ok” and he wanted his TV back 😂 god I feel low I just want to cry

@happyvibes this is the vitamin I've been taking. I took it when I fell pregnant last time. Xx

Thanks for all the info so far ladies much appreciated.

@happyvibes yeah the seven seas has folic acid and I'm pretty sure it has vitamin d I'll need to double check.

It says about twice daily but doesn’t say how many. I’ve been doing 1 tablet 4 times a day as that’s what my tub says. I just take one with breakfast, one with lunch, one with dinner and one before bed. I know others do 2 in the am and 2 in pm but I wimped out cause my tub words it differently lol x

@HopeForRainbowbaby no problem. I just didn’t want anyone to do anything wrong that could hinder your chances. Best of luck for the next cycle 🚲 ladies ❤️🙂

Thanks for copying info on calc Fluor @Pugprincess

@HE88 I think it is healing process ! It is good to make this milestone dear ! And future is opened ! I have also made this realization this month that it is ok not to have bfp this month and it will come when it is time. I just want it to be healthy. Although bfp was there temporarily, I still went through process quite lightly. The egg just didn't implant correctly. Well we will see what future brings and I'm contemplating if I should test so early next month or just wait for day of period. I'm naturally impatient but I might wait. Let's see haha

And btw in CD1 and I'm excited for next week time for new ttc haha 😘

@he88 info on the calc Fluor

I have had two sessions of acupuncture. Whilst I didn’t get my BFP but I did ovulate exactly two weeks after my ERPC and got my af exactly four weeks after the surgery. Not sure if it’s got anything to do with the acupuncture but def helped to get my body back in balance.

Agree with @HappyVibes re meditation. Xxx

@HE88

@chloxhunt congratulations lovely. So happy for you. Do you already have children? What’s your TTC journey been please doll? I love the success stories to keep us all positive and hopeful xxx

@Pugprincess @HE88 re: the omega - please let me know the strength you find. I am sure from my findings that the recommended is 300mg but I can’t seem to find anything less than 500mg. Xxx

@HE88 hey doll this is exciting and I love this kind of question as I love to see everyone’s responses.

Has the seven seas got Methylfolate/folic Acid in? And vitamin D3? I am also having a small glass of grapefruit juice per day, 20g Macca powder. I too am going to be using the Calc Fluor after ovulation x2 morning & x2 evening.

I have looked into the acupuncture for fertility - amazing results & outcomes for fertility so I’m deffo gunna consider this next cycle if needed (not that it will be fingers crossed)!

I would also recommend daily meditation - I do it just from YouTube in my bed before I sleep / leave it running whilst I sleep. They do specific fertility for meditation / affirmation for fertility. I tho k it’s a really important balance to get the body & the mind healthy.

Good luck lovely xxxx

@HE88 I think so yes. See what the others say but I read that if you get preg to stop the primrose oil so I’m assuming it’s not great in the tww? It’s usually to improve your ewcm isn’t it? That’s what I was going to try if AF came. Then calc Fluor for lining and foetal development so that’s tww and pregnancy from my knowledge. I’m not on omega 3 yet but my next lot of pregnacare I’m going to order the one that had omega 3 tablets with it x

@Pugprincess the evening primrose oil is contained in the omega 3 tablet do you think I should but 2 separate supplements so omega 3 on its own and evening primrose oil on its own? Xx
