Jump on board and join in the for some laughter, crying or even the odd ranting (whatever you need). There?s lots of , (caffeine free of course ) 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

This is the previous thread

Stats to follow.

Hi All,

Collie - your neighbour sounds like an idiot, sorry I am new here, did she know you mc'd?

Melies- keeping my fingers crossed for you, sounds promising!!

I started bleeding last night and had my hcg levels done today which I am hoping are at 0, will find out tonight.

I have an appt with the fertility doctor tomorrow afternoon. I really want to start the treatment again now as if i have to wait for another af (usually 5 week cycle) I will be in Spain when IUI due. Not sure that he will let me though.

Wish I could just get on with it instead of having to be controlled by doctors all the time!!

Sorry for the moan.

Can I ask as well how long you bleed for? I worked out that only 2 days late so could be normal period as well as mc, is that possible.

Am so confused.

Sorry for being self absorbed!!
But my friend had a mc and fell pregnant the next month without having another period.

afternoon all,

collie glad to see you're a bit better today. your neighbour deserves a kick up the arse.

Thanks everyone for the messages

Thinking of?

Digitalgirl, Hairytriangle and AandRmum xx

Hopeful sorry you are going through this but glad its started to happen for you naturally. I had a MC at 5 weeks and it was 4 days after my period was due. I had the MC instead of AF essentially. I bled for 6-7 days but I think everyone is different and it also depends if it all comes away properly.

I think my cycle started again straight away. Just trying to judge it from CM (TMI sorry!) it was as though the last day of my miscarriage was the first day of what would be my period of the purpose of my cycle....does that make sense? So, if I put my details into an ovulation tracker, I would say the first day of my period was actually the date I stopped bleeding. I don't know if this is the way it works in reality and suspect it differs from person to person but from my CM and when I think I ovulated I think that is what has happened to me.

xx

hopeful I bled properly for a week then spotted for a week, but my loss was later. Glad it started naturally for you.

I'm in an optimistic mood because we went on a walk to the school dd starts at in September to see how long it takes with her walking (it's 20 minutes if im on my own, 25-30 with her because we have to stop regulary to button up / undo her cardigan, pick up pine cones etc) and I saw 2 magpies together and then a few seconds later a 3rd. It's amazing what tcc has done to my brain!

How are you reallyuseful if you are lurking?

Hi everyone

mel you're not the only one on magpie watch- if I see one I have to look for another. Three or four and i'm on to baby names- yes ttc is obviously cracking me up!

shorty my af seemed to get back to normal initially quite quickly but now (3 months later) I get two heavy days, a couple of light days and I'm done. Hoping it's not an early menopause- I read far too much on the internet! DP threatened to hide the computer just after the mc as I was totally obsessed with reading anything i could find- not so bad now

Yes, magpie watcher here too

Well, no real news to report. Been dtd as often as possible and taking my supplements. Think I will stop the EPO as from today though just in case I ovulate soon. Am not doing the temp charting this time as it ruled my life last month and gave me too much hope and I am POAS (ov) but the more I read about them the less I trust them. So, am just gonna dtd as often as we can over the next week or so so as that inevitably is what we do all this charting for in the first place!

Good morning everyone.

Chloe I don't blame you for giving up the charting, it would take over my life too and as long as you dtd often enough it probably won't make any difference anyway.

I had some blood stained cm when I got up - I'm half thinking implantation bleed (although I didn't have one in my last pgs) :) and half thinking af is coming to get me a week early (in which case the mc has really messed up my cycles) :( , although it's probably just my cervix playing up again and I'm being ridiculous!

It's a beautiful day here so once I've cleaned and sorted the washing we're off to the sea front for a bike ride (well dd will be on the bike, I'll be running behind trying to keep up - she's fast!)

Morning everyone, fx that its everyones month.

Well af has got alot heavier now and very painful, normally lasts 5 days and on day 5, doesn't look like its going to stop anytime soon.

Minnie I am the same at googling everything. X

Oooh sounds lovely meliesmum I think we will be doing something nice like that at the weekend if the weather holds up. The blood stained cm sounds promising. I had implantation bleeds with 2 of my pregnancies. Will be keeping my fingers crossed, would be about the right time for you too wouldn't it?

Sorry, xposts shorty This is your first AF after WTF cycle isn't it? It will just be your body's way of giving you an overhaul from your MC, clearing out the system so to speak. If you are still bleeding heavy in a couple of days though then contact your gp again. I have been taking Spatone (iron supplement) which might be something you want to consider if the bleed is draining you?

chloe think a month off the temping is good. I was even debating not doing it for cycle 2 as it made me obesse worry and it really disturbed my sleeping espec at weekends. Dtd as much as poss is the best plan. One of those little suckers is bound to get through!!

mels day in the sun sounds nice.

I'm at work. Can't be bothered.

Chloe can I ask you what your implantation bleeds were like? I'm having pink/pale brown mucous with a few tiny spots of red blood, I'm really worried that it's the start of af and my cycles are completely messed up. Before my mc I used to have 2 days of dark brown stuff before af.

Hi collie, I don't blame you for not feeling like work, you've got so much going on.

melie My implantation bleeds were very similar to the start of how my AF used to be, browny pink mucus stuff, only on one wipe though then nothing. Everyone is totally different though. I hope it isn't the start of your AF.

Hi everyone,

Melies - fx crossed that it is implantation bleed and not af coming

Chloe - very jealous that you live by the sea, must be so nice on days like this

I saw the consultant this morning and he said I can start trying again on this bleed (mc bleed), in fact he was almost surprised I was asking, he said why not!! I thought you had to wait a whole cycle but not complaining. I start my clomid tomorrow and scan booked for next saturday and IUI in approx 16 days.

fx crossed for sticky beans everyone

afternoon all.

melie my implant bleed was two little drops of blood on wipe, can't remember if i checked cm.

chloe can't blame you for not temping this month it does get rather intense, i always worried about the times i was taking them.

shorty i think the first af after can be worse than normal.

hope everyone is ok, sorry if i've missed anything.

Thinking of?

Digitalgirl, Hairytriangle and AandRmum xx

chloe I didn't temp this month. I've found it mainly liberating, although a touch irritating as I ov'd 4 days earlier than usual

Hope everyone's well, just waiting it out over here.

Can I come back?

My bfp was unfortunately short-lived. I had some pink discharge this morning so phoned mw and she said phone if it got worse, and then it did. So was at epu by 10.30.

Scan showed my womb was empty, and no sign of an ectopic, so they took bloods which came back just now as a paltry 6. So I have to poas in a week and let them know,but am sure it'll be a bfn.

I'm a bit shocked at the amount I'm losing, or not tbh!! My first mc, there was loads, but there's next to nothing so far.

I'm ok, because I hadn't allowed myself to get excited, but obviously sad. Dh and I have decided one more go, and then that's it. I'll spoil my beautiful 4yr old dd (well I would anyway), and I have two much older dc's and dh has another dd too. So we have brood, just desperately want more of our own.

Oh harrassed. So sorry to hear that x

Oh harrassed, im so sorry :( , you are welcome here anytime but obviously we wish that you didn't have to be here :(

Ive had no more bleeding so im crossing my fingers for implantation bleed, i wont allow myself to believe it yet though.

mel I've had implantation bleeding once, and it was exactly what you described. I also thought it meant the start of af! Fingers crossed for you x

Hi ladies, sorry i've not been speaking much last few days, but with ds waking up so early every morning, i'm just absolutely exhausted. i have been lurking though and reading just not much energy to type much.

hihp again i'm sorry hon.

mel i'm keeping everything crosed for you.

chloe hope you're ok

i'm off for a bath and yet another early night. just wish i could get a sleep till my alarm went off rather than ds.

So sorry to hear that harrassed :( look after yourself :)

melies eeee... fingers and toes crossed for you!

Hope your ok cep and everythings going good!

Ive just got a positive on an ovulation stick! (faintish line) im guessing this is good news after my mc? shall i swi tonight? or does everyone think because the line is only faint ive missed the window?

hellooooo to everyone!

x

(((big squishy hug for harassed )))

Brooke I'd swi tonight just in case. What cycle day are you on and when do you normally ov? The faint line could be a bit of a build up to ov too. I had a faint line then a proper line a day or two after. Good luck.

mels how many dpo are you? Sounds promising. Fx

yrmotb how many dpo are you? Hope the break from temping and stressing works for you !

cep sorry you're so tired. Is ds still having his night terrors?

got a bean bag reserved with your name on it!

I'm not too bad. Apart from cramps but still not feeling v pg. And when I have cramps I'm stressing about them, and when I don't I'm stessing about why they've gone?!!

Brooke I normally have a faint line for a few days that gets darker until it's positive.

I hope you get some sleep Cep.

Still no blood here, just a few light brown globs. And left sided cramps. I'm optimistic one minute then convinced it's af the next. I hate not knowing! My research says I can test next weds so if no af please hold my hand until then!

I think im 7 or 8 dpo collie. so too early for af and about right for implantation but who knows after a mc?! Cramps are normal, please try not to worry. Are you going to pay for a scan?
