@Tina12745 we are ttc our first child. I know what you mean, I was only pregnant for 13 weeks but even though baby had died I was still getting full symptoms so never suspected anything!

@LittleMysSister with my chemicals (there's been a few) the tests have gone negative before bleeding starts.

@Bridgey8 I hope you're ok? Surgery is brutal so I hope you are recovering well xx

I'd like to join too!

I'm 15 days post surgery... baby stopped at 5 weeks they think and got re-absorbed but my body kept frown the sac/placenta/hormones doubling so didn't find out until 9 weeks.

Still testing positive on tests at mo...

Xxx

Hey, I will join you ladies too :)

I am just coming off the back of a chemical now...found out I was pregnant and then bleeding started a couple of days later so no time to process the bfp at all tbh - which has been a bit of a blessing actually because it's meant I've not really been emotional about the whole thing.

I am currently waiting for 2nd blood tests results just to make sure everything is still going in the right direction and rule out possibility of ectopic, but I'm hopeful it's just been a straightforward loss. Tbh I didn't even initially think I'd need the docs since it was so early, I only called as a precaution but obviously they have to be thorough.

No idea what to expect from the next few weeks though?? I have a CB smiley OPK thing but haven't used it this month as I'm guessing the HCG and progesterone from the pregnancy would mess the results up anyway. I didn't really think about the fact that this loss would likely mess up my cycles so I guess I will just have to wait and see how it goes. Going by normal dates, my fertile days would be around now so I think I'm out for this month, but hoping to pick it back up in Dec :)

@SareBear87 oh bless you! Are you ttc your first or do you have other children? We are ttc our 2nd.

Im doing okay thank you, im still having counselling with regards to my m/c and thats really helpingSmile. The baby was only 9 weeks but its crazy how much it effects you when it happens to so many people. How are you doing?

Thank you ☺️
My pg tests went negative within 10 days of surgery so I'm kinda waiting to see what my body does next!
I'm hoping my LH levels rise but I'm not hopeful. This was my 2nd mc and my first one (at 6 weeks) knocked my cycle out by 10 days so I imagine this one will take a lot longer!
How are you feeling though?

Of course @SareBear87 definitely the more the merrier! Its nice to speak with ladies that understand what youve been through isn't it! Sorry to hear about your m/c, i had mine in june and it took 18 weeks for my first period to come back. My cycle was only 25 days this month its never been that short xx

May I join please? Had a mmc last month (found at 12 week scan), I'm 18 days post ERPC surgery so not expecting a huge amount to happen this month but would be nice to not feel alone!
