Ttc after miscarriage thread 4 🌈💞✨🤞

@PamelaDoov that sounds so difficult; if you want to shareno pressuredid you name him/her?

@PamelaDoov thankyou. I just prey that these thoughts and feelings get easier to deal with for us all. I think in the beginning the one thing getting me through was the thought I may conceive again straight away, but now 3 months in and it not happening brings along its own feelings of sadness and grief. I took 3 preg tests today and im only 9dpo so probably far to early but shows I may be slowly losing the plot. I really need to try and take a step back but its so hard isnt it xxx

@MiaGrace31 I know exactly how you feel. Big hugs x

Im having an incredibly down day today as well, just feeling a bit hopeless about everything. Feel like people around me although trying to be supportive are just a bit sick of me now. It really is one of those things that unless you have been through it you cant describe how it feels and how that emptiness and longing is so hard xxx

I’ve had a pretty sad few days, sorting out my baby’s cremation service with the hospital 😔 but the happiness of finally ovulating helped take the edge off a bit and make me feel more hopeful.

@JuniperAndTonic keep holding on and getting through it minute by minute, day by day. Thinking of you x

@aesgriff completely agree, it's really so sh*t isn't it.

Thinking about everyone struggling tonight, I am too. X

@aesgriff absolutely, and thank you xx

Can I just take a minute to say how SH^T it is that we are all going through this terrible time of anxiety, longing and ugly feelings. I wish it would be different for us all xxx

@Meganrobyn you ok? Are you hoping for BFP? If so fingers crossed for you!

To everyone, pregnant or trying, who is struggling with anxiety/tough feelings today... xxx

Hi all, sorry it’s taken me so long to check in - been trying (and failing) to stay off the forums and Google today. Thanks to everyone who asked after me ❤️

I’m feeling okay today, the bleeding has mostly stopped, just tiny amounts of brown spotting. Trying to cling onto hope but also not get my hopes up too much if that makes sense. Ive almost made it through one day, just one more day to go before the scan and hopefully an answer. It’s the waiting that’s the worst part I think.

Hope everyone else is doing okay and hoping my posts haven’t been triggering for anyone!

@Prayingformyrainbow93 I think I'm officially in the 2ww...ovulated a month after mc...feeling ok now that I'm in limbo but I know as 14 dpo comes close it'll start getting hard...fingers crossed everything normalises for you soon, a bfn was a good start for me to feel a bit better...

@Vhopeful, @Prayingformyrainbow93 I think that's such a normal feeling, which we try to push down b/c we feel guilty/don't want to be a "bad" friend...for me the best thing is to fully acknowledge (to myself/dh) that I feel it rather than trying to talk myself out of it. I think it's such a specific kind of feeling, too, very different from the pinch of envy I might feel if someone's house is very spacious (ours isn't!) or similar. It's really visceral, isn't it...? Cards on the table, I do have DC so fully recognise the feeling might be even more tricky if I were at the beginning of my journey.

@Cruz86 my results are back. I got 20.1nmol/L at 5dpo. Would you mind sharing yours? They advised ovulation cannot be absolutely confirmed as they would expect results of over 30nmol/L xx

@Prayingformyrainbow93 I did yes I counted first day of bleeding as CD1 and tested with Clearblue Ovulation test from CD10 and got my static on CD19. Aww thank you so much 💕

Hi all. 👋

Unsure if I can / should join as I'm not technically TTC. Long story short - had a miscarriage last month. Me and my now ex partner had sex once after the miscarriage... Now had a faint positive pregnancy test just yesterday! ( Pull out method clearly doesn't work lol ).

Anyways due to miscarriage I have no clue what DPO I am but guessing 9 or 10. Periods due Saturday but due to loss I'm unsure if that's accurate either!

I definitely had negatives before this positive so I know it's not leftover from last.

Already driving myself insane but holding off doing another test until Friday!

Sending you all lots of baby dust and finger's crossed you all get BFP :)

@Prayingformyrainbow93 I am planning to try this cycle. On CD 11, we DTD cause I was super horny (TMI). But, last 2 days I am spotting and having very subtle cramps again for 2 days so I now idk. Hopefully, will ovulate soon. Good luck for this cycle. Fingers crossed 🤞 that this our cycle.

Did you count cd1 as the first day of the bleed with your cp @arianasky ? X

@arianasky At least you caught your O and got your BFP! I heard that ovulation can be a bit crazy after mc! So pleased for you ♥️ I can understand the nerves I’m sure I would be the same! I’m sure you’ll be absolutely fine x

Yes of course @Vhopeful so I’m currently CD7 after the CP. After my MC in December I ovulated on CD16 which was 2 days later than the month before! When I say ovulated I use the cleaner blue opks so that was when I had a static smiley. I do know and have seen a lot of people have a bit of an irregular cycle after MC and can sometimes take a little while to regulate properly. Are you trying again this cycle? X

@Prayingformyrainbow93 yes I normally ovulate on CD13 it was CD19 this cycle, I'm good thank you just nervous 😬

@Prayingformyrainbow93 Thanks! Yes I am trying to remain as positive as possible. Sorry for your losses ☹️. Can I ask which cycle day are you in?
I am CD 14 after my miscarriage at 5 weeks. My initial bleeding stopped around CD9 but started spotting again yesterday and today. Idk what to make of it. My OPK has been negative for 2 days. Hoping to ovulate soon 🤞

Ah Thankyou @arianasky I will start using my clear blue opks I have a couple left from last month! I did do one this morning but was negative! Everything went back to normal quick enough after the MC in December I ovulated 2 days later than the previous cycle so hopefully that will happen again fx 😘 congratulations and Good luck with your pregnancy, how are you feeling? X

I know how you feel @Vhopeful my best friend is also pregnant, we would have been around 3 weeks difference and it is hard. Remember to protect your heart, that doesn’t mean you can’t remain happy for your friend but look after yourself ♥️ X

@Prayingformyrainbow93 I had a CP last month and I'm 4+2 weeks pregnant now, it did make me ovulate a few days later than normal though
