Hello again Jamface ,

I hope someone will be along in a minute who knows all about post mc cycles. I am still waiting for AF after a complicated miscarriage and then finally an ERPC 8 weeks ago.

I have a DS too, he is two and adorable and a great comfort.

xxxxxxxxxx

Hi Jam just a quick post to welcome you, sorry that you're here but it's a good supportive thread, and to say and reassure you that prior to my mc's I could tell you to the hour when af would arrive, and now it arrives somewhere between 25 and 27 days.

NorthernG great to see that everything is going well and the 12 week scan was fine :)

Welcome Applebolossoms sorry for your loss.

Hi ladies,

Just popping in to say hi... will have a proper catch up in a bit...

prepare to be energetic

Waves to everyone

hairy popping zits.... whats that all about? I am 34 and too covered in zits, (never had spots in my teens at all!) since i got pg and on through MC! bloody hormones, wish they would make up there mind

that would be their mind! scuse spelling, 3 days in a tent does that for your brain cells!

nickstermum I know!

I seem to get them around ovulation, then they fade (slightly) then just after period comes, then again at ovulation. You could play join the dots on my face :(

My DSD's boyfriend made me laugh when I commented about being covered in them ... he's early twenties and a great laugh, bit of a cheeky chap - started to count them!

Sarahmia I'm so sorry to hear your news.

Please give chana a call 020 8201 5774. They really are helpful. You don't have to tell them your name just talk (or cry they're used to both). Their hours tomorrow are 11am-1pm. If it's the answering machine just leave your number and they'll call. They also have a large network of drs so may be able to help with medical recommendations. They can also help with the financial side.

It's nearly a new year and hopefully we'll both be written in better books for next year.

Gmar chatimah tovah and if you want to contact me in RL feel free to CAT me (that's the contact poster button)and I'll send you my phone number.

Sarahmia - Also have a look at this site

www.jewishpregnancyloss.org/topics/grief-mourning/ - an exploration of Jewish sources on perinatal loss may help you at some point. I found it a very helpful article and idea.

sarahmia so so sorry to hear your news x

srahmia so sorry to hear your news. I can't imagine how you must be feeling, and hope you have a strong support network at home. Sending love your way xx

getawiggleon I'm in Shipley. Are you near Leeds?

Thanks so much for the warm welcome
Sorry if this comes out funny, i'm trying to post from my phone...
sarahmia so sorry to hear your news. Sending you massive hugs :(
YRMOTB sorry about your BFN, think it's really unfair of our bodies to play silly buggers with us...af was a week later than expected last month, not best pleased, so can imagine how frustated you must be getting now!
Can I ask you all a question? Since my cycles seem fairly random right now i'm thinking of using opk's next month...are the tesco ones any good? Just seem SO much cheaper than the clearblue!
Phew...first post done, not so scary

Hello,
Just a quick one as I'm about to put DS to bed but applebossoms I don't know about the Tesco ones but can recommend these from Amazon. They do the job and seem a bargain compared to some of the high street ones:

www.amazon.co.uk/Highly-Sensitive-Ovulation-Fertility-Strips/dp/B001G7P62S/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=drugstore&qid=1283710964&sr=8-2

Wow, thanks jam -

100 posts since i last logged on.... madness!

Hi to newbies, sorry you are on here, i have to say though its therapeutic, a bit of a giggle and very, very supportive. I am still a bit of a newbie too. Hopeful that no one on here stays very long.. meant in a nice possible way.

Sarahmia we havent met yet. Can i just say how so very, very sorry i am for your situation, and for your loss. For it to happen once, bad enough. To be hit with the same 'shit stick' twice is just the pits. My thoughts are with you.

Still trying to catch up so will re-read in a min properly!

I am still in the LIMBO shit faze post MC where my body doesnt know what the hell it is doing. I was convinced i was OV on thurs, all symptoms so i hounded, persecuted, begged asked DH for Shags (refused - twatface) but then decided to POAS instead, was neg - so i left him alone! Bleed one day, clear the next, discoloured etc for another... WTF? My MC b'loss started on 12th August i had hoped it would have eased off by now!

i have now decided to POAS every day til my body gets into OV mode again so i know what its planning on doing.

Had a good wkend in the lakes in the sun, yes - SUN!!! Though, it wasnt without teary moments, too many preggers bellies and the last time i went camping i had just found i was preg, so memories! Saying that DS had an awesome time, if only the shameless- clampets-- scrotes hadnt kept me awake ALL night!!

hairy good on you for the bike! MY DH has got me out on mine a few times, have to say i feel better for it! Just watch those downhills......

Hi appleblossom & Jamface - sorry u find yourselves on here also :( the best place to be though :)

Arsecrackers owlie i have nicked your saying! (love it! - i think it was owly?!

OK i have given up...... i cannot keep track !!!!

to all those who have got their AF/BFN - wank wank!!!

For all those who are feeling WANK/SHIT/SAD/TEARY sending big hugs in the hope you all feel better.

For those of you who are waiting to POAS Every F & T X for you!!!

For me now i think a mahoosive glass of vino

YROMTB - cant keep track - are you still on a WTF? sorry if so :(

For everyone

thinking of another positive rhyme to send.......!

Sorry to gatecrash you ladies but i wondered if i could have some advice please.

I miscarried back in May, was 9 weeks when i had the erpc but 7 week baby was found. I knew i had miscarried, symptoms had vanished and i am always sick for weeks.

I bled a little after but not too bad.

Period was 6 weeks later.

However i am still waiting for the next one. Foolishly dh and i were not being careful from about day 29 in to the first cycle as i assumed my period would be arriving any day. We were not ttc again as dh was due to deploy for 8 mths in August.

Anyhoo i had what i though were period symptoms last week. A day of very faint brown excatly like i get before period arrives.

I did a test the next day when af did not arrive overnight. Negative.

Assumed it would start soon. Nowt.

Here i am a week later and nothing.

What is going on? This cycle is now about 9 weeks in!!!

G&T have you done another test since? could have been too early to detect?

I have not < wimp > dh deployed 3 weeks ago and i am not brave enough.

G&T agree with nickster you should prob re-test. If it's negative again perhaps go see your GP for some medical advice! Be brave, if you are pg, you are, and best to know so you can plan. Ace name, love it.

Thank you.

Is it normal for a cycle to be so long? I mean 6 weeks was an age after the MC but 9 weeks!!

Noooo. I can't be.

POAS!! 6 weeks after a mc is perfectly normal. Having a mc does cause havoc with your cycles but 9weeks?? You are either going to get a BFP or you need to take advice on trying options to encourage a cycle to start again!! . Let us know how you get on :)

Cheers ladies.

Will buy a test tomorrow if i can sneak it in the trolley. All the kids are still on Summer hols...

sarahmia really sorry about yuor news. other newbies, also sorry you're here but it's agreat palce to be.

sorry not to namecheck all of you but this thread is getting SO big and busy I'm finding it impossible to keep track ,so consider yuorselves greeted.

And thanks for all the good wishes etc. for my IUI.

My last day of clomid today - I go back on Tuesday for a scan to see how the follies are doing, so FX!

Although it's good we are actually doing something positive, I'm feeling really down this weekend because I just don't feel like it's ever going to happen and DH really doesn't seem to understand. I know men think differently, but it's really hard to see him so positive and optimistic about stuff when I know the stats and how unlikely it all is. I think the hardest part is not being able to have a nice glass of wine to get over it

Anyone watch the X Factor yesterday? What was with those girls at the end! I'm surprised they aired that - controversial at all?

Why is there nothing on TV on a Sunday? Nothing. Very depressing to watch reruns of crap programmes that were bad the first time and are even worse the second time!

We are having some building work done on the house soon so we've had to pack all the DVDs away so I can even stick one on to distract me. Plus one of our dachshunds had an operation recently so she's got a great big collar on to stop her chewing the scars, so I'm up and down every 5 minutes opening doors for her or hand feeding her titbits or water because she can't actually reach the feeding bowl or get outside without me opening the door for her (usually they use a catflap as they are small enough to fit through it). So she's dejected and miserable.

Great weekend here! Sorry to unload on you all...
