TTC after miscarriage thread 12 🌈✨💛💕

@FfayeN that is a lovely line! Don’t worry about it being too dark. I would always get dark line by 14dpo on a frer. I feel like frer the lines progress much quicker than cheaper sticks.

So from yesterday afternoon I noticed my bleeding getting heavier and noticed a couple of little clots. I didn’t take the cyclogest last night and today the bleeding is just as heavy albeit not to a period standard but a few more wee clots this morning. I do think the bleeding and clots will continue and that’s the tissue being passed. I’m obviously very devastated but also a bit relieved that the bleeding is finally leading somewhere is that awful saying? I don’t have any cramps though? With my last mc I had cramps 2 days prior to bleeding and had pain radiating down my legs too. The sister said at the scan last week even if I pass clots to come to the scan for confirmation. Im wondering if I was meant to be further along as digital was 2-3 and midwife said I’d only be 3 weeks and baby stopped growing at 6 weeks and from last week this is my body trying to clear my uterus? I’m wondering should we ttc straight after surely I couldn’t be that unlucky to miscarry 3 times in a row? DS is still bum in the air looking through his legs for a sibling. Keep telling him he’ll be looking for a while 😂

@FfayeN that's a super line! I agree with @MrsCristianoX that's a sticky bean in there! I totally understand why you had to rein DH in, after you've been so much heartbreak you don't want to allow yourself to get too excited. Do what feels right to you - if you want to tell people, do it. If it feels too early, maybe wait until the pregnancy progresses a bit. But either way, that's looking SO promising!

@TheBirdintheCave are you sure of your O date? I sometimes find AF can change ever so slightly month on month. Last month AF arrived in the evening of 15dpo. That's a cruel little game my body has been playing with me recently. Maybe hold off a few days and see if AF arrives before buying another test.

@FfayeN beautiful line!

Thanks girls for the reassurance. I also feel extra anxious today because I'm due to drive an hour on the motorway and I hate driving on the motorway. My anxiety just spikes and I get intrusive thoughts of crashing the car. Plus I'll have my daughter in the back so can't even listen to podcasts to distract me. Made me feel doubly sick this morning I think.

So. 14dpo for me and nothing. No spotting, no AF 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm a bit confused. I always get AF 14 days after my O pains and normally spot two days before so this is... unusual. FF says to expect my period tomorrow but my luteal phase is never 15 days. Temp is above the cover line but its not high. Maybe FF is right? My sore boobs are pretty much gone. Should I get a test today while I'm in town? I don't want to waste my money 🤦🏻‍♀️

@FfayeN Wow that's a dye stealer! Maybe it is twins! 😱😬

@FfayeN such a line ❤️ this one is a sticker 🙏🙌

@FfayeN ha! I have been thinking the exact same thing with mine. My one this morning looks too dark! I wonder if it's because we're so used to seeing pictures of tests done so early before AF is due? HCG numbers can vary so much at this early stage, I don't think it will mean anything too much at this moment.

Thanks so much everyone, having such a safe space to be able to talk about it means everything! 🥲 I’ll keep you all posted!

@FfayeN i think it’s a great line! Twins are ok, one for each arm! 🙊

@HalWin2221 yes I see it! My negatives have always been the starkest of whites, and that line fits well with 8dpo. Everything crossed for you that it develops. Having that naive happiness taken away by MC does feel so cruel, but there is still hope to hold onto.

@RaliaMusca completely understandable that you are anxious, but like you said, you ARE having symptoms, they are just different which is completely normal as it's a different pregnancy. It's so hard getting into a positive mindset though, I totally get it.

@calimc83 thank you so much! Still in a bit of shock as I got so used to seeing negatives.
My boobs feel really full and heavy and I've got some slight nausea. Basically feels like a low grade hangover. I had a feeling the day before I tested as I also got that full feeling in my abdomen, and I slept through my alarm which I never do.

I've also started the progesterone pessaries, and it's...interesting.

@HalWin2221 I deff see something there!

@RaliaMusca try not to panic. Easier said than done but they are all diff. All 4 of mine have been different symptoms really.
this one. Much less sensitive boobs. But sick every day. Which I’ve never had before.
if you think about it our hormones are forever changing month to month usually. So I think it just is where a pregnancy lands and how your hormones change and it time it affects you slightly different.

I'm feeling irrationally anxious today. I'm 6 weeks now and have much more nausea than I did with my two previous pregnancies but my boobs haven't changed at all. "Normally" that's my first symptom! I know every pregnancy is different but it's freaking me out.

@HalWin2221 I see it :D Fingers crossed this is the one

@HalWin2221 oooh yes, there's definitely a line! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you ✨

@HalWin2221 I see a line!

@HalWin2221 ooohhh I see that! 😬 xx

@mummatara @bunnykins123 thanks ladies. It’s sad that when we see a positive we don’t automatically think that equals a baby isn’t it ☹️just going to keep everything crossed & not going to tell OH yet! Xx

@HalWin2221 I can defo see that too 🤞 maybe test again in a few days to see as we have had some awful indents on here recently. I always get lines but that looks stronger than a indent imo. Good luck!!

@HalWin2221 forgot to add my negatives have always been stark white
