At the start of our relaxing holiday in Cornwall my first AF post-MC/ERPC turned up, so I am back in the saddle, now on CD 9, so will start again with TTC. It feels good to have moved on physically.

weewilliewinkie · 29/05/2006 13:28

quick question girls - I'm on cd10 of what is approx a 28 day cycle. Feel like I could be ov'ing very soon, judging by my cm - not quite ewcm yet, but getting there. (sorry if tmiBlush!)

Is it possible to ovulate at this early stage of a regular 28 day cycle? I thought it should be literally half way through, ie cd14 (which my temps last month indicated, even though at this time last month I felt the same as this. Did that make sense?!)

I really hope I do ov this early as dh is away from early Wed morning until Sunday, ie cd 13-cd17. Boo. He leaves at 4am - I'll need to send him off with a smile on his face !Wink I'm not doing any opk tests this month. (didn't buy any!) I had assumed that we were missing all our best bd chances this month but who knows? Worth a try anyway, hey? Wink

Anyone around?

oinker · 29/05/2006 14:39

I used to have a regular 28 day cycle.. It's all over the place now. I found that I ovulated at different stages of the cycle. Generally from day 10 to 16 Shock

Yes it is possible to ovulate a little earlier.
Just go for it.. Preferably every day then you won't miss out. Wink

GOODLUCK

babyfettle · 29/05/2006 16:05

Hello girls - no help on the when you ovulate question. I never have any idea. We just BD every other night from end of AF until temps risen. On CD23 and still no temp rise in sight!! But I checked back on the cycle I conceived DD and I ovulated then on CD25, so fingers-crossed!

Feeling bit blue at the mo - DH and DD have gone out for a walk with work colleague of DH, her DH and DD. She is pregnant (work colleague, not their DD!!). Trying so hard not to let it bother me, as it is not her fault that I had MC, but still feeling bit Envy. For some reason writing it down here, makes me feel better, as I know you all understand!

Probably the Sound of Music in the background that is making me a bit emotional!!Grin

weewilliewinkie · 29/05/2006 16:33

Know exactly how you feel, bf. It's hard to keep your emotions in check. Don't worry about it. These feelings will pass. One of my good friends told me of her pregnancy not long after my m/c, but she was so sensitive and kind about it that I've never had any problem accepting her pregnancy, and am able to talk to her about it no problem. It's when you see other women who seem to be so relaxed and taking their pregnancies for granted (and why wouldn't they - I did..) that you feel a bit jealous. Just focus on yourself, forget about the others.

Don't know if you remember a couple of weeks ago my best best friend announced that she thought she was pg after trying once - I was feeling very bad. Anyway, she's not pg. What a relief. Blush Sorry, that sounds terrible. I'm just not ready for that kind of news quite yet.

time4tea · 29/05/2006 20:04

WWW - on the ov question, I would go for it, a few people I know said they got pg that early in the cycle and it happened to me when I got pg last time.

"taking charge of your fertility" by Toni Weschler has a lot of info on how the idea that everyone should ov on day 14 is not correct - have you (and others?) read it? any thoughts on its usefulness? A friend who got pg straight after a mc said that she found it really helpful, so I went and bought it, a fascinating read but am only just getting to try out the techniques...

good luck WWW, and all

rubles · 30/05/2006 08:29

Okay good morning all, I hope you had a good Bank Holiday weekend. I am now back at work, logged in, cup of coffee in hand ready to get stuck in to mumsnet.

Firstly a big, big, congratulations to bobbynog - what perfect timing for a holiday to help you get you head together and relax. Are you going to ask for an early scan? I have had a scan through the thread and I saw that at CD21 you were complaining of getting PMT - how wrong you were!

Nicola - how did the Friday appointment go? Are the adhesions fibroids? What are the implications? What sort of surgery is it that they may need to perform? I hope you got some answers and weren't too down about it all. I hope that the treatment is a simple procedure and it proves to be 'The Answer' for you.

On the subject of ovulation, the second part of the cycle post-ovulation is the bit that is a fixed time (pretty much), the ovulation can vary in its timing. WWW, just go for it before tomorrow morning - if you have the ewcm the sperm will be able to live for a few days anyway. Fingers crossed for you that it happens early.

jbenev - how are you doing? Try not to make yourself ill with the stress of waiting and watching symptoms as you have a few days left yet. I'm really not one to offer advice on it, as I can get quite obsessed to the point of getting cold sores and styes on my eye, but can you find stuff to do that really absorbs you to help you take your mind off it all for the odd hour?

I am on CD 8 today and I realised yesterday that I had actually been feeling quite laid low by my AF arriving, but it was more of a low-level slow burning sadness so I thought I was alright. It was only after it lifted this weekend that I realised in retrospect how flat I had been feeling.

Have a good day all - that has taken me ages to type, I had better get on with some work.

Angsthase · 30/05/2006 09:36

Congratulations Bobbynog - a BFP is just the good news we need.

Had a bit of a spell on Sunday. Got all weepy again and DH is away so called a friend and then felt like I was being crap. How long before you stopped being susceptable to bursting into tears? It's been 3 weeks since my ERPC and no signs of AF yet.

rubles · 30/05/2006 09:48

Angsthase - 3 weeks is soooo early days yet, really, expect to be bursting into tears for a while longer. Hope AF arrives over the next week or so.

oinker · 30/05/2006 10:11

Nicola do you have fibroids too?

I apparently have two the size of large oranges. I have been told they will reduce in size now that i have m/c. Apparently p/g hormones make them increase in size.

Do yours cause you much discomfort?

Smole · 30/05/2006 10:37

Congratulations Bobbnog! :o

Nicola63 · 30/05/2006 10:48

Fisrt of all, congratulations bobby that is wonderful and best of luck to you!

No I don't have fibroids at all, but have a degree of Asherman's syndrome (adhesions due to scar tissue),with an area of denuded endometrium on the back wall of the ueterus (ie there is a bit of the lining missing and replaced by scar tissue). The obstetrician also found one side of the uterus all rather stuck together and pushed it open with a whole lot of fluid, hopefully pushing through the adhesions and opening things up. He told me that although there is still some scar tissue and missing endometrium, what is left is plenty to allow implantaion and pregnancy, and he did not think this was the cause of the m/c's. Whatever the case, the uterus is now opened up (at least for the moment) so let us hope that helps the fertility process.

I had another ultrasound yesterday to check how things are going and there was, once again, a nice follicle on the ovary. However, pregnancy may not be possible this month because of all the messing around with the uterus that has occurred (at least some of the lining has been washed away!), so I'm not going to stress about it and will take things as they come.

I have had so many "answers" now that I am feeling confused and rather like a defective old crock! I am on thyroid hormones and aspirin, my uterus has been blasted open (not a process without pain!), and if I get pregnant I will be put onto heparin.

I feel like taking a step back and not going near a hospital for a while!

Angsthase · 30/05/2006 11:31

You do sound like you've been in the wars Nicola. Not surprised you don't feel like rushing back to the hospital any time soon! At least you have some answers and maybe feel like you're making progress.

Well done you for getting through all that fiddling. I thought the Histo-thingygram was bad enough, but what you've had done sounds really painful.

Hope you have some even better news soon. Grin

Nicola63 · 30/05/2006 11:43

I've had a Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) too and this hysteroscope was certainly more sore than that! Well, it was done under general aneasthetic, which also knocked me for a loop (spent the whole bank hol weekend in bed feeling horrible!). But back at work today and feeling more normal.

After I had the HSG I then got pregnant the very next month, probably something about clearing out blockages, so am hoping this might be the case again. The fact that the pregnancy then miscarried is probably not related to the adhesions, more likely to thyroid or clotting problems (now being treated), so I am hopeful that the blasting through this time will have cleared things away and meant that things might happen again, and hopefully work out better next time.

oinker · 30/05/2006 15:12

Nicola I too have to take Heparin whenever pg. I have to jab twice a day with 10,000 miu take 75mg aspirin and 400mg progesterone.
I am sort of glad to be having a bit of a break from itat the moment.
I am suspected as having a septate uterus and am supposed to be having a HSG as soon as my next AF arrives. I didn't realise it was painful. Shock I just thought it was an xray. I'm getting nervous now.

Nicola63 · 30/05/2006 16:30

Oinker the HSG was not really painful, just not terribly comfortable. And afterwards it felt like a period for about 24 hours. Please don't worry about it! I did not find it too bad at all and the discomfort was at the level of being taken away by 400mg ibuprofen.

oinker · 30/05/2006 20:14

Phew...............Smile

K1K2 · 30/05/2006 23:28

Hi all, how's everyone doing, its good to have a some good news with a BFP, congrats BN!. So sorry to the newcomers, its not a good feeling welcoming anyone else, however, but I wish you all the best TTC . Nicola I conceived with extensive adhesions to womb and tubes, some had even blocked one according to my laparoscopy, but I have a DS of 3 so it is possible....

I've a had a slighty better week ( physically and emotionally), bleeding now stopped , but my CM doesn't look right, very greeny yellow ( sorry TMI) , wondering if it is a an infection, though I have no other symptoms. Better have it checked at GP's I suppose. Good luck to all xx(¸.·´ (¸.·´ .·´
