TTC after miscarriage thread 13 💕🌈✨💛

I finally have some GOOD NEWS. Saw my lovely GP this morning who understands and agrees with all of my concerns. She has prescribed me thyroxine to start sorting my thyroid issues out, has referred me to endocrinology to be looked after by a specific team that deal with TTC issues caused by thyroid, AND a referral to gynaecology with regards to my 3 miscarriages. I’m so so happy. I hate to agree with sexist stereotypes but look what happens when you see a female doctor instead of a male doctor.
Not sure how long the referrals will take with current wait times but I’m honestly so happy just to get on thyroxine. Dose me up!

@Cindy974 ooh how exciting!

@Cindy974 tentative congrats😊
My trust offers early scans after one miscarriage. I'd be making an appointment with either a dr or epu. Let's face it, it won't happen today and you can keep an eye on your tests. Aspirin is a tricky one. It can make you bleed if you don't need it but it can help with blood flow to the baby. Did they give you given a reason for previous losses xx

@Cindy974 Congratulations :D

Sorry I havent posted in a while but i need helpppp

Ive just gotten a faint bfp on a frer at 10dpo. What now? Im absolutely terrified i canr feel happy yet. My blood tests all came back normal had a pelvic ultrasound last week which came back normal too. I was planning on taking aspirin as a precaution, is that wise? I dont know what to doo 😭😭 also will i get early scans now cause ive had three miscarriages in a row? Maybe i should wait till missed period to ring the doctors this doesnt feel real

theres my test its alot pinker in person and i have a faint line on an internet cheapie feeling the usual symptoms too

@mummatara I am okay, thank you, just a bit under the weather 😯Got slightly elevated temp (37.0) but it feels like 39.0 😳not complaining too much though!

@FfayeN thank you so much for your insight. Keeping everything crossed for 2
lines on a FRER on Saturday and a sticky 1! 🤞🏻

@lovenaps thank you ❤️ yes we will try again as soon as poss. I fell with this one first time I ovulated after previous MMC so hopefully we get lucky quickly again 🤞🏼 hope you're doing ok?

@RainbowSearching I have heard people take it through first trimester and others stop at BFP. I don't think there's been enough research either way tbh. I plan to stop at next BFP and just take my prenatal

@FfayeN thank you! Google seems inconclusive - shock! Some say stop, some say no harm continuing a low dose, some say continuing can help with improved lining 🤷🏻‍♀️

@mummatara so glad that you're doing well and it was a success! Enjoy your hand hold with DS and hot chocolate. The worst is over now 💕

@mummatara wow that was quick!! Glad to hear you’re feeling okay🥰❤️

@mummatara When I had a mmc and my options were being discussed, I was told that if I went for surgical management, it could potentially increase chances of implantation the following month as they 'scratch' the endometrium and it releases certain cytokines. Just wanted to find some silver lining in this for you, if you can/want to try with your next fertile window, it might be good to know ❤x

@mummatara glad you are on your way home and it all went well. Hope you get your cuddles

@calimc83 actually feel quite good but I presume that's all the nice painkillers they've given me 🙊 I'm sure I'll be feeling a bit more fragile when they wear off. I think that's the quickest I've been discharged from a hospital about 20 mins 😳 just on way home now be so glad to get back sit on sofa and have a hot choc and a cuddle with DS ❤️ though he probs won't want to cuddle me just hold my hand and say come play toys 😂

@mummatara Hope u are ok lovely and not feeling too sore and can get home soon. Look after yourself xxx

@bananamuffin99 It took about 4-5 weeks post miscarriage before my pregnancy tests were negative. It takes a while for all the hcg to leave your system.
The opk tests pick up hcg so they are hard to interpret - you can't tell if they are reading hcg or lh.
I spoke to Clearblue and they said not to use their digital opk tests until third cycle after z miscarriage, as they won't make sense. (Obviously, I ignored them and used them anyway....)

I felt the same, and would have tried again straight away, except I didn't ovulate until after my first post-mc period.
Egg quality won't really be affected - your eggs already have whatever genetic makeup they are going to have. But I did worry that my uterine lining might not have had time to rebuild, so in hindsight I'm glad I didn't get a chance to try til next cycle. (2dpo today...)
Wishing you patience and baby dust!

@mummatara Great to hear it's finally over for you!

I'm out of surgery I presume all went well 🤞🏼🙈 hopefully won't be too long before I can go home

@TheBirdintheCave according to Amazon they’re 10mlu however reviews on them
are very mixed in terms of actual sensitivity. I’ve ordered a pack of FRER which I’m hoping I can wait until Saturday to take 🤞🏻

Hi 👋 I am currently trying to get pregnant again after miscarrying a few weeks ago. I don't seem to have any issues getting pregnant, it's staying pregnant. This is my 3rd miscarriage (miscarried in June and Oct this year also 1 a few years ago), I am blessed to have 1 wonderful child. The bleeding stopped last week. I am a bit confused though as I am still getting positive pregnancy tests but I have also been getting high/peak ovulation tests the last few days. So realistically I most likely won't fall pregnant this cycle will I?? Fingers crossed I am lucky, but I won't be surprised to see aunt flo. I'm also worried now that I should have listened to the Dr and waited to get my next period before trying again, just in case it affects the egg quality or something 😬I'm just sick of the constant set backs, I'm 40 and I just feel that time is not on my side. If I hadn't miscarried in June I would have been due in Feb. So I just feel like I don't want to 'waste' a cycle where I could potentially get pregnant.

Sorry for the rambling! Good luck to everyone trying to have their rainbow baby 🙂

@RainbowSearching If that's a 25miu strip then that's a great line for a day or so before AF :)

@RainbowSearching I would be over the moon with that line 2 days before AF🤞❤️

@mummatara thank you for commenting. I hope everything goes as well as it can today ❤️

Open to everyone - if this result is the start
of something promising, what’s the COMPLETE list of vits etc and doses I should be taking? I can’t bare the thought of a 4th miscarriage in a row! 1 was spontaneous at just under 6 weeks, the others were MMC where growth stopped at about 6 weeks each time. A heartbeat was detected with the 1st MMC in an early reassurance scan.

I’m already on a prenatal (Asda own, I don’t think it’s full dose of all recommended items so happy to hear other options?), 75 aspirin (self prescribed), 200 Ubiquinol. I was also taking evening primrose up until ovulation. Should I stop taking anything I’m taking? Should I be taking anything extra? I don’t care about cost, I’m willing to try anything 🤞🏻
