TTC after miscarriage thread 12 🌈✨💛💕

@HalWin2221 ooooh I can see that without even squinting 🥳🤞🏼 eeek exciting start

Ladies, I caved and took a test 8dpo 😂 every time I’ve taken a FRER it has been positive, is a negative completely white? It’s an absolute squinter but I’m freaking out & wishing I hadn’t test now!!

@TheBirdintheCave it's hard. Really hard. This is month 14 for us and 3 miscarriages. A close friend announced to me today too. I think it hits harder when someone you know irl falls pregnant easily and has a uncomplicated pregnancy. I'm at the stage of looking at ivf for us. I'm certainly not advocating that for anyone but given our age and high NK cells I'm not sure if waiting for a natural conception is worth it anymore. I think having tests helps as it does help eliminate things and give reassurance that all is good and if not, usually they can fix it. Just know that you're not alone on this journey 💕

@Luna57 my friend had bleeding and it was implantation bleeding. It was bright red and around 6 weeks. All was fine 🤞

@EsmeSusanOgg I'm so sorry it's literally just awful to get so excited then nothing. I've been through 3 of these and they are soul destroying.

@TheBirdintheCave sorry for bfn 🙁 I mean I'm resting a lot of hopes on the fertilily soon🤞

I think I'm close to peak CD11. So kinda in the mood. Making him wrap it up tonight 😂

@FfayeN I get that odd sensation as well! Like an aching/heavy feeling. Have had it on and off through this pregnancy as well! Xx

*the cold weather and the freezing house! 😜

@FfayeN @theblueflowers Such lovely news!!!! ❤What a beautiful day seeing two positive tests in here 😍
@TheBirdintheCave totally get you 💐Someone is due the same day as my first pregnancy was meant to be and I would absolutely cry if I popped into her! It really is hard!
@EsmeSusanOgg keeping everything crossed for you ❤Have you tested today?

I'm due to test sometime next week but think I will wait until just couple days before the expected period - it was too traumatic seeing tests stop getting darker and then fade away with the most recent pregnancy 😓
Feeling totally exhausted, just been coming home from work and curling up in bed the last two evenings, it was the case with my first pregnancy (although it was not successful but it was a symptom for me then), so I am hoping for good news but maybe it's just the cold!

Thanks @ChloeN and @RaliaMusca - hoping that's the case. I have a period tracker app, that has been pretty spot on for gauging when my fertile period is (has most of a decade's period logging data in fairness). So fingers crossed

@EsmeSusanOgg i had (I believe anyway) a very early chemical last cycle, and seem to have ovulated a couple of days later than usual this month! Hopefully it won’t delay you as much as your mc! I don’t think I ovulated the cycle after my mmc so took longer to get back to normal xx

@ChickenT2b Sixth cycle post miscarriage but ten since we started trying.

@FfayeN No it wasn't you guys :) I like seeing announcements here. It was just my Facebook friends. One new announcement this afternoon and the friend who was a week ahead of me posted her maternity shoot photos this morning. It's just been a rubbish day overall 😅

We had tests three years ago yeah. My husband had low sperm motility but we conceived our son after 15 months and found out the day before our first round of IVF was due to start. Bit of a miracle there!

Definitely going to get the Fertility :) I'll have a chat with my husband re more tests.

@EsmeSusanOgg So sorry to hear you're going through this. I think you just treat this as a normal period and can try again straight away. count today as the first day of your new cycle. Do you track ovulation in any way? I have a friend who conceived immediately after a chemical pregnancy. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

So... TTC advice.

Had a miscarriage at 12 weeks (though drs seemed to think growth may have stopped a couple of weeks earlier) in mid July.

TTC through the summer, but no BFP. Had a positive test Tues and Weds this week. But started bleeding heavily and cramps this morning. Like heavy period. So bum.

When can we try again? How long does it take to reset as it were? Hoping less time than over the summer?

We have one kiddo (turned 4 over the summer). And had no issues conceiving then. But I'm now late 30s (38).

Any advice appreciated!

@TheBirdintheCave we honestly all have these days, you’re not alone feeling like that 😞. What cycle are you on?
Does he have any form of private health care through work at all? My hubby to be got a referral as he’s 40 in Jan, though he hasn’t actually gone ahead with it yet.

@HalWin2221 i temp because it’s the only way to truly confirm ovulation. A really good indication of whether AF is coming too. I do find the flo app to be fairly accurate with predicting. I also have the natural cycles app and find that to be consistently incorrect 🤦🏼‍♀️

So depressed. Another friend with a son a month older than mine just announced her pregnancy. I've spent all day Googling urology specialists for my husband 😭 It's never going to happen for us.

The nausea has really kicked in the last few days ladies 😷

Hey hope everyone is ok?! Huge congratulations @FfayeN @theblueflowers so so happy for you both! How are u feeling? Any symptoms? Xx

@FfayeN @ChickenT2b you girls are temp queens! I don’t take my temp, I think it would be obsessed with it! I’m already obsessed with the app Flo and that doesn’t even tell you anything 🙈

@RaliaMusca my next scan isn’t til 24th so 10 days away. I’d debated a private scan sooner but I’d rather know if the bleeding isn’t a miscarriage then what is it and don’t think say window to the womb could tell me that. I’m still gonna try the cyclogest rectally in the mean time. I’ve been trying to think what I’ve did different with ds and the only think is I took high strength omega 3s which I think can help eggs with ovulation? So maybe I should try that if this pregnancy ends and see if it helps make the eggs healthier.

@ChickenT2b my post O temp and pregnancy temp was around that mark it varied from 36.57-36.65

@HalWin2221 mine was 36.59 this morning which I was happy with for 8dpo. What about you? X

@ChickenT2b what is your temp currently? 🤞🏽
