TTC after loss part 5

@CadoAvo Best of luck 🤞

@HerbaceousPerennial Congratulations !!!

@Joleyjojo I’m very sorry to hear this, it is a horrible experience to go through. I’m 38 and had two MMCs this year one after the other - first 6.5 then 8.5 weeks. It is so cruel that your symptoms keep going. I couldn’t believe it the second time - but was already sobbing by the time they started the scan. It is very traumatic.

in terms of trying again I did read a lot of advice and the consensus was to wait until you get a negative test. There is some evidence that conceiving in the three months after miscarriage reduces the chance of a second miscarriage. Unfortunately that wasn’t the case for me but I think many people will successfully conceive straight after. The emotional toll takes time, though.

We decided to stop TTC after the second miscarriage. I had a wobble recently and wanted to try again but DH was quite firm that he couldn’t see me go through another miscarriage after two EPRCs in a few months. It was a bit of a relief to have a hard no, because it stopped me wondering and means I can start to move on. We have recently passed the due date for the first miscarriage and the second one is November. It took months for the emotional toll to hit me - perhaps I’m still waiting for the full throttle of it. Advancing age pressures make it harder, because you feel that each month is more urgent. I wish you the very best and hope your recovery goes well xx

Thank you, oh I hope so.
Earlier on today I also had quite a bit of faint yellow tinged cm. I haven't had that since my first pregnancy so really hoping it's a good sign.

It's so much harder to see on the picture but I'm sure I can see something in the first one!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Figtree11 thank you

@ncl31 thannks, interesting you thought you could see something at first. I'm the same, I think I see something then it disappears.

Will see how the next few days go.

I’m not sure I see anything @CadoAvo, sorry. It could still be too early though

I initially thought I could see something but again it could be my eyes causing me to see things.
test again in a few days

Opinions please? My eyes are going square and pretty sure it's negative but can't help thinking my eyes are making me see things, maybe because I want to see it so bad.

Af arrived a day early for me today. On to the next cycle. I have an x-ray this afternoon so it's wierdy nice that it's a day early so I know there's no risk.

This cycle my partner has his semen analysis for our fertility clinic referral, that's the last test so hopefully we won't have to wait too long to know when our appointment will be with the fertility nurse. We should also get the results of the genetic blood test we both had done. So at least things are happening this cycle. It's also my dad's wedding in 10 days, and we go to Cornwall with my partner's family as well for a week's break, first holiday for a long while x

10dpo....have taken 2 tests this morning and pretty sure they are bfn. But on the frer, I think I can see the faintest second line but can't pick it up on camera and think my eyes could just be playing tricks on me.

I’m doing okay I think, possibly ovulating soon - had a small rise on my OPK this evening so hopefully I will.
I told white lie to my DH that I wasn’t doing OPKs this month to release the pressure. he seems to have engaged in BD more this cycle.

Thank you for asking. I really appreciate when someone asks how I am nowadays.❤ I am glad to be here because I can find the kind of support I need. I am trying to be positive and grateful. I used preseed during my fertile window then I stayed in bed for 15 mins every time after sex. I also took 75 g low dose baby aspirin from 1 DPO because I read that it could increase the chance of conceiving.
I wish you good luck for this cycle!!💝
@CadoAvo The earliest day was 10 dpo when I got a positive. So, only one day to go! : )

@CadoAvo i hope it’s just early for you yet

@LucyCL hope you are ok. The anniversaries are the worst. The date of me first getting pregnant is approaching next month, and if I’m not pregnant by then I know I’ll feel down

I’ve not been testing for ovulation due to stupidly long cycle, but I’ve had some ewcm the past couple of days, and tender nipples today?! So I hope it means I’m ovulating, or at least my body is trying to ovulate

9dpo and bfn ☹️🙄

Thanks. I'm taking proceive max so I'll check which of those are in it and see if I need to add them. I've found since taking proceive max that I ovulate earlier which I thought was a bit strange but probably not something to be worried about

Today and tomorrow are the dates of my 1st MC (6 weeks and 1 day) 😢and it is really not fun to be reminded of the MC anniversary. I lost my appetite 3 days ago and I felt so uncertain about my body. I still feel like I am a part of this group. So, I still come here to see how everyone is doing. I really hope things will get better for us.

After reading your comment, I am now having tears in my eyes. I am so sorry you have to go through this again... 😭I really really feel for you and it makes me sad to know this happened to you. I will be here if you need me.

@Babydust99 sorry you are going onto cycle 25, the only tips I have is what I am on for hormones... ubiquinol and vitex (well along with a million other vitamins lol), maybe others will know of more.
I am also on cycle 14 and still no bfp (2 losses the year before) it's tough but I have seen a few ladies that were ttc along with me for the same amount of time get their bfp over the last month or so, so I am hopeful. x

I'm with you on the tests @moosey89 I was kind of hoping for an issue with mine so there was something I could fix x

Thank you so much @HerbaceousPerennial I really hope to be joining you soon and I wish you all the best... I have a good feeling about it for you this time xx

Sorry you had your first day back... the first is always the worst, hopefully tomorrow might be a little easier @Ella31 x

Hi @Joleyjojo I'm really sorry for your loss, it's so hard when you have had a scan showing things are good and get your hopes up x

Im so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine how difficult it is still feeling the symptoms too.
I hope you get sorted soon and able to start TTC again as soon as you’re emotionally able.

How has your return to work gone, lovely? X
