Ttc after miscarriage 🤞🌈✨

Just a thread for any ladies ttc after a miscarriage! Nice to get some support from people going through the same thing. So I had a MMC at ten weeks nearly three weeks ago now. I'm still getting faint positive on tests. My ovulation tests are still all over the place possibly due to the HCG still being in my system. So not totally accurate right now. So I'm currently stuck in limbo land either waiting for ovulation or my period 🤔 any ladies want to join the journey?!?!

9dpo today TTC1 after MC..

Not very happy with easy at home pregnancy tests. 3 in a row had dye runs or terrible evaps.

I confirmed they weren't positives by doing an FRER.

It's so upsetting. I hope you can see from the photo.

@Confusedmumof4maybe5 ah I wasn't too worried. It took me 3 weeks to test negative for pregnancy and then it seems my cycle kicked in after that and was 4 weeks. I tracked ovulation and came on exactly 2 weeks later so hopefully things are on track... ish!

@Confusedmumof4maybe5 So sorry for your loss. Welcome. How are u feeling after your MC? X

claremc1983 · 22/12/2021 09:06

@Skl2021 hope u are ok this morning? I'm still spotting a teeny tiny bit which is annoying me. Is it still AF or just the end of my miscarriage?! God knows but it's driving me mad...just want my body to settle down and start getting back to normal..in other news I'm definitely going to start wrapping Christmas presents today! 😆 xx

Confusedmumof4maybe5 · 22/12/2021 05:39

Hi
Is it ok if I join? Miscarried Friday this was my first natural miscarriage I have 4 children with my previous partner me and my new partner are trying now the miscarriage took me by surprise I did have a subchoronic hemorraghe so maybe it got bad and detached the placenta.

@Skl2021 sorry didn't tag you! Too many baileys 😂 x

claremc1983 · 21/12/2021 22:45

I had it with my last pregnancy..had my BFP then 2 days later I had implantation. Just browny spotting and not had it in previous pregnancies. When I got my BFP it was pretty faint..not sure how many days after ovulation it was. Somewhere between 10-14? I'm ok thanks, going to start DTD soon I think 😆 OPKs have been v negative but I usually ovulate quite early on so don't want to miss out xx

@claremc1983 I doubt it never had it with my other pregnancies. It just takes over your life! I'm always wishing time away to the next point of my cycle. So fed up! How are you doing xx

claremc1983 · 21/12/2021 21:53

@claremc1983 I'm trying but inside I'm broken 😩 trying to hold it all together but I just want to break down and cry. I'm getting awful pains and bit of spotting when I wipe so definitely think I'm out. I'm only 10 dpo so if it is af then it's early! Such a hard journey. X
@Sparklesurprise29 thankyou 💞 I don't have much hope tho xx

Hey everyone, looking to join this group. Had a miscarriage (10 weeks) in early November, waited to start TTC until I'd had my period (so weird actually wanting AF to appear!) and now we're starting TTC again.

Before my miscarriage I was trying for 2 years, so I'm hoping our next BFP isn't another 2 years away!

Hopingforarainbow27 · 21/12/2021 20:33

I wish I had reasons or answers ☹️

arianasky · 21/12/2021 20:24

@Hopingforarainbow27 for me they thought the miscarriage was a partial molar pregnancy where 2 sperm fertilise the egg rather than one so would never have lived past 14 weeks.

Hopingforarainbow27 · 21/12/2021 18:45

Thanks girls for sharing. I'm struggling with all the unknowns

Sparklesurprise29 · 21/12/2021 18:37

Thanks @Jayjane79, hopefully!! Trying to keep positive that the ewcm is a sign my body is gearing up to ovulate at some point, first day of bleeding would make CD1 for me 29/11. Might use an opk this evening and see if theres any changeGrin
Keeping my fingers crossed you get BFP soonXmas Smile

@hopingforarainbow27 I haven't but it happened at 8w 3d, after seeing the heartbeat at 7w2d, I've put it down to abnormality of the fetus or something placental as I was measuring a week behind, I'll never know though Flowers

@skl2021 so sorry :( Flowers its not over until AF comes so still keeping my fingers crossed for you

claremc1983 · 21/12/2021 18:35

@Skl2021 so sorry to hear that...😞 hope you are ok? I was feeling really hopeful for you. You are right, it 💯 takes over your life and becomes all consuming xx

claremc1983 · 21/12/2021 18:34

@Hopingforarainbow27 Not a definite answer but when I had my scan they told me the baby had swelling around the head/chest area which indicated a genetic problem...x

Has anyone had any reasons given for their miscarriage/s? Just curious as I'm so anxious ttc and convinced there has to be a reason for it.

Jayjane79 · 21/12/2021 16:02

@Sparklesurprise29

Hi everyone if I'm getting EWCM but negative ovulation tests does this mean I'm not yet ovulating Confused Finding it all so confusing trying to calculate when my potential period will come, is a new cycle technically from the start of MC bleeding, when its happened or when all bleeding has stopped? Had such a regular cycle before this, its so annoying that all my period tracker apps are wrong and desperate for my to log (what they think) is a very late period Any insights would be handyXmas Hmm
You would class CD1 when you first noticed blood no matter how small or little the amount. Its very likely You will ovulate later than usual so keeping using your opk's twice a day. I ovulated CD18 from the first day of my miscarriage 3 days later than usual BUT I find the month before when I conceived which I'm putting down to the prednacare I was taking. Good luck I'm dure your peak isn't far away.
