@Cdoc hey lovely I had mmc too I had surgical management they did tell me to wait 2 cycles to try again as could have things leftover that will come out with period:( I think you do ovulate though in order to have your first period. I'm thinking of using ovulation kit now as it's my 3rd cycle since mmc and just don't feel like I have usual ovulation signs it's messed me up!

@calimc83 that's good you're having further tests done. I feel like I have a little peace of mind with my bloods being normal. We were considering going private but after speaking to the GP who assured me it is still common for 2 MCs in a row & my results being normal/good health etc not to worry too much x

calimc83 · 08/06/2022 09:30

@Astar21 thank you. It's truly shit isn't it. The consultant at the EPU seemed to think it was just 'bad luck' hate that...I've got my bloods today and managed to get a referral to the recurrent mc clinic. I doubt it'll show anything. I think my age is a big factor. Have u considered going private? X

youngiesophie · 08/06/2022 09:27

@calimc83 thank u ♥️♥️ Xx

Astar21 · 08/06/2022 08:58

@calimc83 so sorry to hear that too 😔 it's so emotionally exhausting. I feel like it's completely taken over my mind. Have you had any further tests? I managed to get some routine blood tests done through the GP & they've all come back normal. So not much more we can do but try again x

calimc83 · 08/06/2022 08:51

@Passenger87 we really all have...everything crossed that u have your BFP before sept. I've always said I'll call it a day by my 40th in Jan if it doesn't happen..x

calimc83 · 08/06/2022 08:48

@youngiesophie wishing u all the luck in the world for your pregnancy xx

Passenger87 · 08/06/2022 08:48

@calimc83 I think all of us here have had journeys.

Yes I'm going to keep trying up to September and then I have another appointment with my consultant. But I'm hoping to get my bfp in the meantime.

calimc83 · 08/06/2022 08:43

@Astar21 so sorry for your losses. I've also had 2 MMC one in Nov and one in May. It's heartbreaking 💔 xx

calimc83 · 08/06/2022 08:42

@Passenger87 sounds like you've been on quite the journey lovely. I'm sorry 😞 has the grief lessened slightly now? Will u keep trying if your due to have surgery soon? X

youngiesophie · 07/06/2022 23:34

Congrats @MooBugz it seems we’re in the same boat I’m so anxious and knicker checking for blood every hour. I’m 6 +3 and have had mild stomach cramps everyday since the beginning so not helping my anxiety. Its shit not being able to get excited xx

youngiesophie · 07/06/2022 23:21

@bunnykins123 completely understandable it’s so shit and you just want answers after all that’s happened x I was drinking a lot too it gets really depressing when u keep having miscarriages and everyone around u seems to get pregnant fine and have no complications xx

Passenger87 · 07/06/2022 22:53

@Astar21 hi there. So sorry to hear of your losses. xx

Astar21 · 07/06/2022 22:46

Hi ladies,
Have read through a few of your posts & sorry to hear of everyone's losses. It would be nice to join for some mutual moral support.
I've had 2 losses in the past 5 months. A MMC in Jan, which was found at my 12 week scan & a natural MC at 7 weeks beginning of May. Trying to conceive our 1st baby & feels like such a difficult journey so far x

Passenger87 · 07/06/2022 22:41

@calimc83 oooh me too. I don't feel like a person so much as a potential incubator 😂

calimc83 · 07/06/2022 22:39

@Passenger87 also I hate the whole TTC malarkey. It's super stressful and completely takes over 😬

Passenger87 · 07/06/2022 22:38

@calimc83 it was April 21. Because it was a bit complicated and there was surgery etc we took a little break. Started trying again in August but took a break around Dec as I was really struggling.

I find the same, it helps to talk. I found talking to DH pretty good. Making sure we are both on the same page. I'm due to have another surgery in the next 6 months so I really feel the clock ticking.

How long were you trying last time?

calimc83 · 07/06/2022 22:33

@Passenger87 aww no it's fine 😆! I find talking really helps actually..erm, it's weird..sort of anxious to get going but even more anxious about having another MC. Kind of feel like they'd all I'm geared up to have now 🙈..can I ask, how long ago was your MC? ( equally if I ask too much tell me to F off 🙈😆) x

Passenger87 · 07/06/2022 21:42

@MooBugz I think if my bfp ever comes I will be much the same. You're right it's hard not to be. Here's hoping smep is the magic formula for me too. If not we did say we would try it again next month, but it was definitely much more regimental than we are used to.

MooBugz · 07/06/2022 21:29

Thanks @Passenger87 @calimc83

I feel really anxious tbh! Tested at 9dpo yday but will test again on Friday. I think no matter what I was always going to be anxious with pregnancy after a mc. But trying to be positive and not let it ruin things but it's hard since I was 11 weeks last time and felt so close to the 'safe' zone of 3 months.

Got everything crossed for you guys though and I'm not going to say try not to think about it because having been there it's all I think about! I have to say I did intend to try SMEP a further cycle had it not worked out this month

Passenger87 · 07/06/2022 21:17

@calimc83 it was nearly 5 weeks for me. How are you feeling about trying again? (If you don't want to talk about it feel free to tell me f'off =) I just remember having a lot of feelings about it. If you ever wanna talk my inbox is always there x

calimc83 · 07/06/2022 21:00

@Passenger87 oh not too long then..everything crossed for you..hmm..I reckon maybe another week or so? I'm coming up to 4 weeks since the MC. I think my last one came at 5ish weeks..but really I've not got a clue! How long did it take for yours to come after MC? X

Passenger87 · 07/06/2022 20:52

@calimc83 I am trying to hold out until Friday (9dpo), I think doing it before that I'll just stress myself out.

Any idea how much longer you'll be waiting for AF?

calimc83 · 07/06/2022 20:45

@MooBugz huge congrats! How u feeling? X

calimc83 · 07/06/2022 20:45

@Passenger87 eek are u an early tester or will u hold out? Not started trying yet..just waiting for AF to show her ugly face..then will ( I think) start again after that x
