If you are TTC after Miscarriage (or waiting to start trying again), this is the place to be. This thread is full of lots of lovely ladies on the post MC rollercoster and is full of support and advice from people who have been through it, and know what you are going through.
Jump on board and join in the for some laughter, crying or even the odd ranting (whatever you need). There?s lots of Wine, Brew (caffeine free of course Smile ) and chocolate, and more importantly, friendly ?ears?.

The thread moves fast so bob in and out as you please. Don?t be afraid to ask anything ? nothing is ever TMI!!!

If you want to join the stats, just add yourself to the list:

WTTC = waiting to TTC
UCL = usual cycle length
WFT cycle = what the f*uck cycle (cycle after mc but before first AF)
For more accronyms see here

Good luck to all ? The last one was a lucky thread for lots of people so here's hoping for lots more healthy, sticky BFPs by the end of the thread Grin

This is the previous thread

Stats to follow.

Awwwww oils I am sorry I have frightened you off by asking for your CD. Smile Its understandable to be all over the place in your WTF, i spent the whole of mine wondering what was going on and if i could be pg.....even though dh was away for the majority of it, and most certainly for the key parts!!

Have a lovely weekend, relax and forget about ttc. See you monday. xxx

OP posts:
olismum23 · 04/03/2011 19:58

IT was not you collie shocked myself at how early i am I still think i might be but i will wait and maybe being out of the loop for a few days will help! DTD every other day since i stopped bleeding and will countine till i get either AF of BFP Grin

cep · 04/03/2011 20:08

collie your spending this cycle wondering what's going on as well. Grin

lili i think it was you who asked for a < not sure what the hell collie put in front of us earlier. This one is the one she gave me for poas too early

oli just have a nice relaxing weekend.

blackkat i'll forgive you........again. Grin

i'm sorry i read the end of the last thread and have now forgotten everything.

There are a few ladies we haven't seen for a little while. laylasmummy, vegas , iggly hadrian boa ifat hiding hope you ladies are all ok.

collie found this, is more to do with hot tubs, i think as long as it's not too hot should be ok. www.babyhopes.com/articles/hottub.html

cep · 04/03/2011 20:09

oli i am in awe and very Envy at yours and dh's stamina. Grin have a lovely weekend hon.

Collie2 · 04/03/2011 20:22

Grin cep I know. It's soooooooo much easier to dish out the good advice!!! I'm chilled out now though, as I've had my +ive opk.....until tomorrow that is if my temp doesn't go up!!! Had some pain in left side of groin today though so fx. I bet you can't wait for my 2ww?!!! I will stress not stress, I will stress not stress Grin Grin

OP posts:
Collie2 · 04/03/2011 20:23

Grin cep at my previous fish! T'was a work of art!!! Hmm

OP posts:
cep · 04/03/2011 20:37

mouse i hope today went well, and that you're ok.

chloe how did your mums visit go.

collie oh lord let me know when it starts and i'll go on a holiday for 2 weeks. Grin i'm sorry was that a bit too mean. Wink Grin and your fish was definately a work of something. And don't forget it takes ff 3 days of raised temps to declare ov has happened. Just do what you can to make sure you sleep in the same conditions.

Collie2 · 04/03/2011 21:16

I know, I think I might have to give up on the temps now as we're off to stay with a friend tomorrow who is having a bit of a house party so I'll be both drinking and no doubt sleep deprived, and then Sunday we'll be sleeping on another footon elsewhere, so definately not the same conditions.

Going to try and 'switch off' now for the 2ww. I'm just glad I know my body is back to normal. I don't think I can handle symptom spotting for the next 2 weeks. (god, what are the chances??)

OP posts:
cep · 04/03/2011 21:23

i think that'll be a great idea. i think you should relax and have a fantastic time at your friends, it is definately what you need. are you going to stay off here or just not symptom spot?

meliesmummy · 04/03/2011 21:24

What's this?! I go to work for a few hours and you start a new thread?! I know I got my dates confused but sheesh! :o

We'll remind that you said that this time next week collie! Enjoy your bath x

Collie2 · 04/03/2011 21:38

No cep I'll still be on here, I like catching up. But going to try and forget about what might or might not be going on.

yes, melies DO remind me of what I'm saying now in a week as if I was a betting woman I wouldn't bet on me Grin you also have full permission to fish slap me at any sign of me symptom spotting b4 AF is due!!

OP posts:
cep · 04/03/2011 21:46

oh good i was starting to worry i had been too mean. Smile i'm off to sleep. have a fantastic relaxing and fun weekend.

mel hope work goes ok.

mousebacon · 04/03/2011 22:41

Hello ladies, I'm only on 'night release' I spent 10 hours in hospital today, surgical stockings, pessaries in, nil by mouth etc only to be told they'd rather someone more senior did the op tomorrow so I have to go back in the morning.

The senior registrar actually came to me half way through the morning to ask if I'd consider medical management and I said no (knowing my luck it'd fail) but that's basically what I've had and I've now started passing clots. Aaaggh!!

Blackkat · 04/03/2011 22:43

Oh mouse, just checked in hoping for news, but not this news Sad how frustrating and tiring for you. Hope you're not in too much pain and that you are finally seen tomorrow. Sending you lots of love and hugs x

banana87 · 04/03/2011 22:48

Oh no Mouse :( Hope you don't pass too much tonight and are seen to first thing in the am.

Still EWCM on wiping here Confused although I attempted to check my cervix earlier (I had NO idea what I was doing) and CM was creamy...so NO idea what to think! In other news, I have gone off sweet stuff which is a classic pregnancy sign for me, though I am sure that is just in my head Hmm

milkyway2007 · 04/03/2011 22:50

Hi everyone, I had my last mc last month. I have had 4 in total. I am not sure about TTC yet, but have just posted a thread here called "confused, please help" - I don't really know what to do. Any advice will be appreciated.

mousebacon · 04/03/2011 23:03

Oh milkyway, you're in the right place love. Take a seat have a drink and the lovely ladies on here will look after you xx

Thanks ladies, I'll pop back in tomorrow and fill you in xxx

Fingers crossed banana xxx

Collie2 · 04/03/2011 23:11

mouse I'm really sorry about your day it sounds just awful. How bloody frustrating. Really sorry you're passing clots and I hope it holds off until tomorrow so you can get through your D&C. You must be so frustrated. Hope your getting lots of tlc tonight. (((hugs))

Will check in again tomorrow to see how you go on x

OP posts:
Collie2 · 04/03/2011 23:32

milky welcome. So sorry for your losses and that you find yourself on this thread and back on the conception board. I've posted on your thread. Not sure if it will help you at all but thought I'd share my experience x

OP posts:
milkyway2007 · 05/03/2011 00:13

Thank You collie2 your post was very helpful, and thank you for welcoming me here x

meliesmummy · 05/03/2011 00:29

Hi milkyway, welcome to the madness! I've just read your other thread, sorry I can't help much except to say that I want to do my health visiting course (year long full time course) which I've put off to have another baby, I have to admit that after my mc I thought, shall I put off the baby thing and just do that? (my dd starts school in sept) but then I thought about it and realised that if I put off the baby now I might never go back to it, and I want that more. How does your oh feel?

mouse what an awful time you're having, hope things go better tomorrow xxx

collie I'll be joining you prob in the symptom spotting so keep some fish for me! (and I'm on the WTF cycle so I've got no excuse at all, I prob won't even ov this month fgs!)

Iggly · 05/03/2011 07:15

wow you ladies can talk! Grin I cant keep up and now there's a new thread! I spend most of time lurking, then by the time I get around to posting it's moved again Grin

hi milky I'll go and check out your thread. Sorry you've found yourself here :(

fingers crossed melie and collie on the symptom spotting! mellie when I was on my WTF cycle I had about a ton of EWCM so probably ovulated but didn't DTD as was not fully recovered. So i hope you get plenty Wink

cep how are you?

mouse sorry to hear about the D&C - make sure you look after yourself and line up plenty of chocolate and wine and indulge yourself for a bit.

This month I've decided to not check my CD, not to temp, not to use OPKs and only to check CM. Last couple of cycles I put pressure on myself to DTD at the "right" time and got very stressed. I honestly don't think I ovulated anyway. Ho Hum!

Also DS is waking up at night with molar problems so very tired so will be going easy on myself (and DH!)
