TTC after MC - Feb/March 2021 (Thread 18)

Thanks @ELMcg. Feels good to be back on track. I’m not a fan of testing early so will be waiting for Monday if AF doesn’t arrive by then. I’m quite lucky that I’m super busy at work so the time is passing by quite nicely. Fingers crossed for you x

Morning all x

Good luck all those static smileys and ov ladies, fc for BFPs in a couple of weeks!

CD31 today for me and feeling little pains low down on my left hand side yesterday and today so AF is more than likely going to show next couple of days at most. Feeling really fed up with it all, I allow myself to get my hopes up that it might happen, this month it was because MAYBE I might be more fertile after the 2nd mc but I know my body is just too old!!!

@bubblybrit nice to see you back and that it's all worked out for you to start trying again!! Fingers crossed for this cycle!

Trying not to count the days and just waiting until AF is late but its so hard isn't it! I think once I get to this weekend I'll feel better as one more week and I'll know either way! Just so tiresome waiting isn't it?

Trying to stay super busy at work so the days pass!

Oh cycle buddies @SLCxxx. Fingers crossed for both of us 🤞we only had the chance to DTD once during my fertile window so don’t feel that this will be my month. Will need to make more of an effort next month if AF arrives as expected.

Glad to hear things have changed since your last post @bubblybrit

We seem to be on similar cycle days I’m on 7dpo, so due on Monday (cycle day 34). Wishing you, and all those on this thread, good luck 🤞🏻

Hi Ladies. I was on this thread before but dropped out after my DH wanted to wait before TTC after MMC in December. He then started to doubt whether he wanted a second baby which caused a lot of stress within our relationship for a period of time.

We had a lot of open and honest conversations and we have decided to start TTC again. DH is still worried about the possibility of having another MC as well as the upheaval a new baby brings but these come second to the desire of wanting to expand our family.

So....I’m now in the dreaded TTW. AF due to arrive between Thursday and Sunday (cycle length tends to be between 30-34 days) so will be holding off testing until next Monday.

Not feeling particularly confident but I’m just pleased to be on the journey again.

I’m so far behind on the thread but hoping that you are all well x

@bez91 I have never had it read that high before but I did get 2.71 on my peak so you can get high readings. I think either way it is definitely postive. Keep taking more of them strips to see if it goes back down. What day was your static again?

Wow @bez91 thats a super high reading. Highest I have ever had is 0.98 lol.
It's pretty impossible to use it wrong. Maybe its a dodgy test??

@NatJ24 i'm pretty relaxed about it this month. 1st time since my MC i've not been crazy but there is time yet. I'm going to hold out until 14dpo. I usually spot 8-9dpo and then I know period is on its way anywayz

@bez91 yes, thats a good point re surgical management. My first one was a natural miscarriage.
My most recent MC was twins and I lost one myself but had to have surgical management to remove the other so my body must have been well confused xx

@bez91 thank you, yes things seem much more positive now! @NatJ24 I do hope so

@elsimo you're the same as me too, 3dpo!!

Hi everyone, hope you are all ok!

@Marvellouslymadmum thats rubbish that AF arrived but its good you have been referred and hopefully get some useful answers soon
@bez91 its good you have your peak, just DTD for a bit longer like you've said incase you do ovulate a couple of days after and atleast you're covered then. You'll then be in the TWW with us!! Theres so many of us similar at the minute

Yes @ELMcg so I am 3dpo today so we are basically the same 😄 I just know it is going to be a long 2 weeks. I want to try and hold out like you, hopefully to when AF is due, so 26th/27th
This group is due some BFPs soon!! 🤞

My first MC before my DD didn't change anything at all but my most recent one in November has caused chaos. My cycles have been all over the place and before I had really bad ovulation pain and thats now gone so i'm not sure if I am actually ovulating 🤷‍♀️

@gizmo167 sorry to hear about your mum, hope you're feeling better today.

@Mamat90 I was feeling a bit down last night but just got off the phone with a different gp after other one was most unhelpful and she's referring me to fertility and oh for an sa so that's really perked me up!

@Marvellouslymadmum sorry hun, fc for next cycle!

Hope everyone survived yesterday, I just hid myself away from it all, I lost my mum last year and with the mc's etc all a bit much but I do have my gorgeous wee DD and am so very very grateful for her so I guess no need to feel that way!

CD30 for me today, no idea what is going on but reckon just waiting on AF to arrive. Have a tiny bit of AF like cramping back and forward but none of the usual PMS things like sore boobs, skin breakouts etc, funny what mc does to our bodies!

@bez91 I'm also cd12! Surprised I've had high since cd 8!

@Marvellouslymadmum such a downer when the dreaded af comes I hope you're okay x

Morning all, af decided to arrive late last night for me so I'm counting it as cd1 today, here we go again 😫😂

Day 5 of just 'high' ovulation, i've never had so many high days before reaching peak ovulation!

I use the clear blue fertility monitor and I usually only have 2/3 high days before reaching peak. Sick of DTD tbh 😅 did anyone else find this happen after the first cycle after missed miscarriage?

Morning ladies. I am 3dpo too xx
