TTC after miscarriage thread 13 💕🌈✨💛

@mummatara thats good news, glad it’s finally getting faint!

@bunnykins123 i feel like that this month, I thought I was going to ovulate early but cd15 and still no peak, it started to rise then went down again, what the hell🙃

@Cindy974 I would give it a few days before your next test. I'm sure it's nothing (it could be how diluted your urine is etc) and I'm sure when you do the next test it'll be much darker than the others. Got my fingers crossed for you!

@Luna57 I've had wayyy more cramps this cycle. I think I've ovulated?🤔 I've had a temp rise but it's 2 days after my super crampy day so who knows if I ovulated then or yesterday. I'm getting a bit of cloudy EWCM too. I wish my body just operated in a normal pattern: EWCM before O, pains at O, temp rise and creamy discharge after O. But no 🙃

@mummatara yassss to the squinter 👏👏

@LuckyMoonstone thanks lovely I think poor @MrsCristianoX has had the worst wait I'm sure hers was 12 weeks 🤔 I took another this morning which I would actually call a faint line so hopefully it won't be long 🤞🏼 I'm going with today I'm CD9 makes me feel like I'm in a shiny new cycle

@Cindy974 they all look nice and dark to me, like they won’t get any darker
@mummatara sorry you’re STILL waiting, and I thought I had it bad last time 😞

@Cindy974 it might just be those tests, I wouldn’t worry til they get significantly lighter or you start to cramp or bleed.

i got more o pain last night but this time on the other side 🤷🏼‍♀️ More creamy cm today maybe my body doesn’t know what’s going on and is just trying everything from any angle 😂

@bunnykins123 bottom test is this morning they have all been first morning urine x

@mummatara that's good! I think it's wise to crack on given you know now all has been removed. Hopefully the hormones will help conceive really quickly 🤞

@ChloeN the main ones would be LH, FSH, AMH, TSH, Estrogen, progesterone (if you're not sure you O) prolactin, blood clotting and NK cells if you can get that on the nhs. The vitamins are good to check but they aren't likely the cause for miscarriages (maybe the cause for not conceiving though). As part of my blood work up they checked vitamin D and a couple of others.

@ChickenT2b 🙋‍♀️ I've had all the tests done. How depressing is that 😶

@Cindy974 try not to panic. The lines are good. Have you taken them all at the same time each day and with concentrated urine? That could affect the strength of the line. Which one is the last test too?

@calimc83 thank you 🙏 they look so light to me 😞 im about 17dpo my period was due to arrive monday just gone

@Cindy974 they look super dark lovely. Could it be that they have reached the maximum level of darkness? How many dpo are you? Try not to worry ( easier said than done I know) xx

These are my tests over four days they havent progressed at all 😭😭 shall i prepare myself for miscarriage number four?

@ChickenT2b thank you! Just want to be prepared and make sure I’m getting useful tests! The blood test the hospital told me to get after medical management ended up just being my blood type which I already knew so don’t want that again🤣

Has anyone done any of the fertilysis tests?

@ChloeN you want to get:

• folate
• vitamin d
• b vitamins
• calcium
• all sex hormones
• tsh
• Progesterone post ovulation

There’s more but I haven’t got my printout. Your GP should know which to go for really..

Anyone that has had testing, what should you be asking/looking for?? I have a phone call with the gp end of the month where I was going to ask for a blood test but I’m not overly hopeful they’ll give me one. I looked at private testing but I have no idea what tests I’d really be needing? (I just want to check I’m ovulating really and have no underlying problems, wouldn’t go for it unless I don’t concieve again by next year) Anyone got any ideas lol🤣

@bunnykins123 yes we will. we were dtd every few days before the surgery thinking it might have passed so just incase and now I've finished my antibiotics and feel all good in the lady dept we will crack on hopefully tonight or tomorrow every few days again

@mummatara oh that's so frustrating. I mean it is fainter but I totally get that you want to not be able to see it now! I do hear of lots of women conceiving with HCG in their system though so unless it's really bothering you, could you just proceed as normal?

@Bubblesandballoons if it was miscarriage clinic, you defo will have had clotting panel done. You should get some reassurance soon with the results! Oh my RMC is so oversubscribed, it took almost 3 months to get my results (this is very much not the norm)

@Luna57 you never know, they say you are more fertile after a miscarriage! I often wonder how spermies swim through EWCM as it seems very thick to me 🤷‍♀️

@emhope I can't let nature take its toll. I have to know where I am in my cycle and that means throwing the kitchen sink at it 😂 the money I've spent on fertility aids is insane!

@Luna57 well I've started ttc again. It'll be grand 🤞

Anyone around CD6 and waiting for ovulation? After not doing any OPK’s last cycle I’ve decided to go all out and do temps and clear blue OPK’s and easy@home OPK’s 😂 I didn’t find not doing them made it more relaxing at all and didn’t end with a BFP either so back to obsessing over testing for me!!

@Luna57 I've got one private blood test that I bought ages ago that expires soon so I'm going to do it today and see where it's at I'll get the results in 2 days. I wish that there was a device like the diabetic device that could tell us the level 🙊

@MrsCristianoX I'll call the EPU if still positive at 2 weeks after so one more week to wait. Ngl I'll be a little gutted if it takes 6 weeks again ☹️

@ChloeN no it doesn't stupid hormones 🙄 I kind of thought as I was at 1088 2.5 weeks ago it might be at least faint by now

@MrsCristianoX thats not long at all. How do you feel about it all?

@bunnykins123 very very weird things our bodies. I’ve put myself as 1dpo for the mean time but my last cycle I had signs of ovulation and at 18dpo negative pt went about my day and then actually turned out to be pregnant. That cycle my fertile cm must of been the really watery stuff I had instead of the EWCM- I thought it was a hormonal imbalance 🤷🏼‍♀️ It would be great to fall pregnant this cycle but it would probably be a miracle. I haven’t had an actual af since June I’ve been pregnant twice since so bleeds have just been mc bleeds.

@mummatara have you had any blood tests recently to see where your hcg? Hopefully by next week you’ll be negative. You’d think now the sac was gone it would drop dramatically. Don’t you wish our bodies could just tell us what they’re doing sometimes.

@bunnykins123 I have no idea as was just at clinic for blood taking 😂. The secretary had to go quickly get some done for me on mon to collect tues at the clinic as the dr hadn’t even written them out despite it being 7 weeks post appt and miscarriage. I’ve had to just laugh about it after all the cock ups with the recurrent miscarriage. Hoping they do get in touch once the results are back though.

@mummatara oh how fustrating🙄 least you’ve got plenty to keep you busy! You’d think by the time the bleedings gone it would have left your system, but doesn’t seem to work like that does it 🤣

@mummatara do you have to back to epu or is it just waiting for tests to turn negative now. With mine I had to wait 3 weeks then if it still positive go back but I didn't have surgery. It's soo frustrating i really feel for you..the hormone once it comes is a bummer to get rid of 😕

@bunnykins123 still looking the same. I was hoping for at least a squinter by now 🙄 I've got lots keeping me busy atm so at least not dwelling too much on it I just get frustrated when I see the line then it's on with my day until the next one in the morning it's like a routine I have going 😆
