🌈Ttc after miscarriage thread 5 💕✨🤞🌈

@Cruz86 I think I'll be jumping on the testing wagon tomorrow! In my head I know its too early but its playing on my mind all day and I have tonnes of cheapies there.

There's still plenty of time this cycle for both of us

Good luck with your progesterone test @HoneyLemon29. I'm glad we've inspired you to do it. I think it just better informs us and arms us with knowledge if we need to go to the gp! X

@aesgriff my partner is ready 🤣🤣 I'm slightly nervous and excited over this. With my first loss they told me my progesterone was a low 9! So I'm intrigued to see how it comes back, and that it'll finally confirm ovulation for me which is a huge thing when you've had surgery to remove some of your fertility 😩

Unfortunately nothing worthy of posting on here @Passenger87 😩

@arianasky I'm hoping my temp starts to head upwards in the upcoming days then I'm ordering the progesterone test on Monday 😅

Oh I'm sorry the appointment didn't go as hoped @Skl2021. How are you feeling?

Honestly, I'm so emotional. I just cried at the end of the Avengers End Game. If I'm not pregnant I don't know what's going on with me 😂😂

4dpo is impressive @calimc83 hahahah xx

@aesgriff I'm ok. I feel I'm going to snap and test with fmu tomorrow how are you feeling today?

@calimc83 the cheapies came already? 4dpo is a fun place to start!!

@arianasky that's true - I actually tested a few days ago just to make sure there was no indent etc. I've kept it as a guide! As if FRER and CB haven't already got enough from us!

@calimc83 we have a winner! How did you feel testing?!

@aesgriff I'm all for that! Maybe a few PMA memes to start with?! I'm okay - had a wobble at lunch when I hopped onto google but I gave myself a mental talking to, and now I'm right as rain 😂

@calimc83 😂😂 I'm laughing but I don't blame you being a crazy tester myself 😂 the good thing is testing that early you know what a actual negative looks like no indents or faint lines etc

@aesgriff thanks for the discount code 💕 I'll definitely be ordering a HCG test after I ovulate 😂🙈

BLUELIGHT15 gives you 15% off blood tests at MediChecks girls 😜

@HoneyLemon29 2 days maybe.. trying to get the blood out of your finger is a bit toe curling though. Had to get partner to help squeeze it out!! Just a heads up xx

@calimc83 we have a new queen!!! 👑 xx

@HoneyLemon29 that looks completely normal to me, mine was similar last cycle and I got pregnant, also ignore the numbers on Premom just go by your eyes. My peak last month was 0.77 but I had a dye stealer OPK as long as you can see the difference that's what matters I'd say 💕

@Skl2021 I'm so sorry your midwife didn't refer you for a scan 😞 do you think you'll book a private one? How are you feeling now?

Why did you all mention the HCG blood tests 😂 this will be a new way for me to throw away money instead of POAS if I conceive again 😂 ( secretly chuffed you mentioned it 😂)

Think I win the earliest testing award this cycle! Tested today at 4 DPO 😆😆...thought I'd better try out the cheapies! Might hold out till Friday now 😬
@Skl2021 how are u feeling? I'm sorry u couldn't get a scan but like others have said if the midwife seemed happy then that's good news xx

@aesgriff I'm going to do it! I've decided 🤣 how long did it take the test to turn up?

@speake I feel the same as you r.e booking appointment. Think if everything is ok on Friday then I’ll book a private scan for 7 weeks. If it’s ok then I’ll complete my midwife referral. How many weeks are you? Xx

@Skl2021 I’ve got one boob that feels like a rock with needles in it and the other feels ok. Starting to feel tired today too. Petrified of Friday and then if that goes on petrified of another MMC!! Gonna see how it goes and if all ok Friday will book a private scan for 7 weeks then complete midwife referral. £79 for window to the womb here.. other place is £95… 😳😳 xx

@bunnykins123 thank you I am feeling pretty chuffed with myself 🤣🤣 little things.. next thing you know I’ll be doing positive affirmations!! How are you doing? Xx

@Passenger87 thank you! Am gonna try and do the rest of the night now. How are you? Xx

@HoneyLemon29 here’s mine from the cycle I’ve just caught from. They are looking really similar! I would also 100% recommend the progesterone kits too from medichecks. At 5dpo mine was 20.1 then at 14dpo it had gone up to 46.1!!! Xx

@speake I can't believe these things exist 😂 if I'm lucky enough to fall it's deffo something I'll be doing. But then with the history of Ectopic the EPAU want to take over as soon as I find out

@Cruz86 I'm tempted on ordering the progesterone one a week before my period is due. Very tempted 😅

@aesgriff I am exactly the same with the testing LH every few hours when high. Only my levels are not coming back down 🤦‍♀️

@Skl2021 I know what you mean, peeing on sticks is an expensive habit let alone multiple private scans! 🙈 I’m ok thank you, still such early days with me but I’m trying to be positive. Although that being said I can’t bring myself to schedule a booking appt or contact the EPU. I think one good thing that came out of the recurrent miscarriage clinic for me was that I could just book scans at my local EPU for reassurance from 6/7 weeks but I don’t want to, I’m so scared to have to do another internal scan and be left in limbo once again. Im trying to live in blissful ignorance at the moment.

@bunnykins123 I just ordered one test kit so I think it’s the two blood tests 48 hours apart, hoping one will be enough to satisfy the anxiety although not sure what hubby will make of it! xx

Hi, I hope you don't mind me joining I miscarried just after Christmas with my first baby and I've had my first period back end of January. I just took a test and I think its showing positive not 100% sure as I have issues with colour vision but all I feel is a bag of nerves of if I am how am I going to wait until the first scan

@Skl2021 that's true, you did expect it to be fairly uneventful but I agree that there should be some support for women in the same situation. Even if it's just from a mental health perspective. Saying that - if take the positives in that you haven't spotted since and that the midwife has said it's normal (they are the experts!) 💕

@speake how many did you buy? I'm interested to know how you get on!

@aesgriff 2 hours is excellent! I managed about an hour and bummed myself out again. I never learn 🙈 oh wow, that's good odds that you could have a twinny in there! Got my fingers crossed for you (I secretly would love my next to be a twin too!!)

Sorry that you didn't get any more answers @skl2021. I know clinically that's all they can offer, but it would be good if there was some additional help to offer women who have experienced loss before because those weeks before the next appointment may as well be months!

@Skl2021 sorry that you didn't get mich reassurance. Even though you weren't expecting it, it would have been nice to come away with some more info xxx

@aesgriff 2 hours! That is some restraint you have. I know when I was last pregnant every twinge sent me down a rabbit hole.
