TTC after MC - November 2020 (Thread 15)

Good luck @HappyVibes x x

@RichmondLady1981 yeah hun I have had about 6 different blood tests, so will be interesting to see the results..I will be shocked if my progesterone is fine. We shall see 💫

@HappyVibes I’m pleased you’re feeling more positive and have an appointment. Did you ever have your progesterone bloods done? Sorry if you’ve already answers that back in the thread.

@KM89 I was advised to use coq-10 for egg quality too! Vitamin D and B12 😘

@WatermelonSugar10 any luck with the OPKs? That sometimes happens to me. Sometimes I get one day of flashing before a static, and this cycle i got 7 days of flashing before my static! My gynae said sometimes the body makes an attempt to ovulate early but if the follicle isn’t ready, it won’t release. It then tries again a few days later. That’s why sometimes the tests can pick up an earlier oestrogen surge.

@susiebluebell so sorry lovely that I didn’t reply to your message yesterday. I’m okay thank you. Taken the week to get my positive pants back on & put a plan of action in place.

I now have an appointment with the consultant mid December to learn about our results & any course of action going forward. This feels like a million miles away but we enquired about private and it’s similar timescale so not much we can do.

I have started clomid again this cycle just so we don’t feel like we are wasting around one month.

How are you doing lovely, where are you upto? Xx

@KM89 welcome lovely.

I take:
Methylfolate (I take this in place of folic acid),
Vitamin D3
Vitamin C - I drop this out after potential implantation.
I also use Macca powder as standard for vitamin B.

I drink one small glass of grapefruit juice per day to help with EWCM.

I've been using Pregnacare and I'll be trying the SMEP as this will be the fifth cycle of us trying after MC.

AF due today for me. negative test this morning at 14DPO . This will only be my second period since my ERPC so I suppose she could turn up at any point... I was hoping i would go back to my regular cycle but its looking unlikely.

Gonna have a few drinks tonight and try to relax...

What prenatal vitamins do you all take ? I have been using his and hers pregncare but will run out today and was wandering if to stick with these or if any one has any other recommendations?

My AF just came one day early :-(

Update for the rest of the group. I had some browny discharge this morning so that's 3 days late but not as bad as last cycle.

But I think AF is here for me this month

@anon0704 so sorry for your loss. In a similar time frame as you. And it's not been long since my TTC journey but its already disheartening. And I feel so much for the other mamas out there.

🤗 Welcome to the thread and hope that you find your rainbow soon

Thank you so much @Tink20058

@anon0704 welcome to the group sorry for your loss, hope you find lots of support opks are a good plan xx

Was wondering if I could join? We're TTC after a miscarriage in April that ended up lasting into May cause of retained products :-( We've been actively trying since about August. Feeling a bit discouraged because it only took two months of trying to get pregnant before the MC. I just need some encouragement to keep going.

Trying OPKs this month so fingers crossed.

@RichmondLady1981 that made me chuckle. Yes it would, even with Brad Pitt!

@griff2019 hi! How are you getting on?

Hi everyone ❤️

@Runnergirl1 your bloat looks very neat!!! 😉

@familybythesea totally yes!!! Having sex five days in a row would get tiring with Brad Pitt!!?? No??? Prefer my PJs and Netflix for sure! 😛

Am 8DPO and getting fed up with the wait already. Due AF Monday so let’s see. Planning on NOT testing until in late.

I’m so pleased about the festive cheese and wine comment. That will be a small consolation if AF comes- at least we can indulge 🍷 🧀 🎄

Good luck @VP91x hope everything works out ok for you.

I still pop on every now and again to see everyone's updates but am also taking a step back from MN and all things TTC.
Good luck everyone xxx

Thanks @VP91x marking my place x

@familybythesea yes it does feel like a chore sometimes doesn’t it which is a shame 😫. And I can relate to the one more episode on Netflix lol!

@MSG92 I’m 6weeks the bloat is unreal so you are def not alone x

Thank you @SS123456, that’s really helpful. If go from the very first day of light bleeding I’m a few days on so I guess it’s not impossible I’m gearing up for ovulation again but I’ll bear in mind what you said about red herrings. Thanks!

@Wishingfornumber2 yes totally! Sometimes I really can’t be bothered and just want to watch that extra episode on Netflix rather than dtd. And sometimes I can’t be bothered to shave my legs etc and it feels like such a chore! I feel bad that’s how I view it but I’m just so tired it feels like a big effort that I just don’t fancy. Don’t tell my OH though ;)

Hi all,

Does anyone struggle with DTD because they are so tired?! I am just entering my fertile days and have wanted to do it the last few nights but my DH and I have been so tired we just want to sleep lol! We have a 4 year old who is being quite demanding at the mo and so that doesn’t help. I then kick myself the next morning that we haven’t done anything 🤦🏼‍♀️. I am saying to myself now we WILL do it tonight 🤣!

@Pugprincess thanks! Swear DH thinks I'm overreacting already... But I look like one of those buddah statues when my stomach is normally fairly flat. And I can't make myself burp either so it's not going quickly!
@MoMof4xx pleased I'm not alone! Haha. I'll just look fat until we can tell people I guess
