We will try anything! The big fat posifrickintivity thread of TTC after MC

[GuffSmuggler]

A new thread for all you lovely, crazy ladies. Here's to lots of BFPs!

Its not my advice! Im stressed to the gills!
Thunder hellooo! Yes there was a foal. He who was a she for the first 4 hours is doing great!
Its great to heat that your thyroid levels are down where you want them.

Can I ask what's with the pineapple for ttc? Surely not the same tale when they say it starts labour?!

saggy my mind is boggling at that one a bit! Did they just take a while to drop down or something?

sun I'm afraid I know that I don't have more sex than anyone else on mn! I know there are folks that happily have sex everyday when me n DP struggle to get enough in just during shagweek. Not good I know.

oh my, obviously i went to bed far too early last night and missed all the fun!
I'm not going to check out that video - can't at work and DH is away tonight and tomorrow night. I'll be freaked out enough as is. Just the description of it.....

sal welcome back from your minimoon. I hope it was fab.

Feeling stupid for POAS early now that AF has started. Could have saved myself the money plus i smell fishy and that's gross - but I have to admit that every period I harbour secret "maybe it's just an implantation bleed" thoughts. At least I know it isn't that.

I would LOVE to just relax and let it happen. If we don't get pg this month I think I will try and chill out about it all. no i won't, i'll join project desperate with even more vigour

Aly - I'm the same. I'm worried I'm getting a bit too obsessive over it and wonder whether it's time to just ease off a bit.

Just entered the 2ww phase - if I get pg, yay, if not, at least I can drink on my hollibobs and I'll be OV then too - I'm not taking any kind of sticks with me so maybe the more relaxed approach will work.

That's the weirdest video ever - he doesn't blink for ages!

What's Agnus Castus? Am I missing out on something amazing here?

Hi all!
My first time posting but have found this thread really helpful....I know I'm now not going insane! haha! maybe a little!

I had a mmc last September at 12 +6 which was horrendously horrible and hard to deal with as we had no clue until about 2 days before our scan!
I then spent months obsessing over ov day etc and ttc...felt like I just had to be pg especially as my sister was caught pg at the same time and all was ok for her....was obv over the moon for her but just painful for us!

We than got caught with pg #2 6 mths later in march of this year but unfortunately had a complete mc at beginning of may at 9 weeks, but managed to cope much better 2nd time around!

I've had my 1st cycle which was at 34 days, quite long for me but not unexpected! I've been feeling relatively positive and not obsessing over dates etc....until now!

Please help as I keep getting conflicting options saying I should let my body rest etc etc....I really want to just go full steam ahead and enjoy but am obv very scared about this happening a 3rd time! I've managed to cope with 2 already but just don't think I could cope with a 3rd!
Just need to know there is light at the end of the tunnel! xx

sundance i just read about you falling off the bed with your legs in the air after dtd. hahaha.
sorry no advice from here. i obviously haven't been putting my legs up high enough. Will try harder next time and see if i fall off the bed too.

agnus castus is some sort of herbal supplement. I think it helps to bring on AF or ovulation or something like that.

thunder we struggled in shag week too. I think in the end we had 5 goes over 7 days which was, frankly, almost more than we've managed in the (almost) 2 years since DD was born (OK that is an exaggeration but considering that she was in our bed for more than a year, and then soon after she moved into her own room i got pg you can see how it's not THAT much of an exaggeration)

hi plokett sorry to hear about your 2 mcs , but welcome to the crazy club!
i think you should probably do what feels right for you. I'm sure your body will be fine and if it's not ready to get pg again then it won't. More importantly you should do what's right for you mentally. If you're ready to go at ttc again full steam ahead then go for it, if not perhaps take it easy for a cycle or two.
I'm sure your body will be absolutely fine and if you did get pg again straight away I very much doubt that would be the cause of a 3rd mc.

Hi alyant79
Thanks for your reply! The crazy club sounds fun! haha! plus it's always nice to know that there are others that can help!
I guess as you say everyone is different so it's just whats best for you!
I'm gona ignore all the haters and just do whats best for us...sick of people saying we shouldn't do certain things! if my body isn't ready then it wont happen!

Thanks again and look forward to all the craziness! haha!

plockett welcome - sorry you are here - hope you find we can help - I have the ladies here fantastic xxx

So.... Is being really sad, then really angry, then really sad again a symptom of being pregnant? If so this must be my month!!!! Ggrrrrr - had a thought this morning that if I'm not up the duff by the summer I'm going to resign - job is stressful enough without all the emotional turmoil - dh won't allow it as we can't afford it... But argh !!!! Have to find a way!!!

When I've calmed down later I of course will be more rational xx

Or I have pmt! AF due next fri/sat so could be! X

Loving project desperate you bunch of crazies. And not I will NOT be watching that video, I get spooked very easily!!!

As for the 'just relax it will happen at the right time', if ONE more person says this to me I will scream. I don't think anyone can understand the all consuming desperate NEED to get PG after a MC if you haven't been there.

Also as others have said, last time I got PG I was in a mega stressful job, so clearly relaxing has bugger all to do with it.

Constantly thinking I should POAS but have got some will power for now. I won't tomorrow as it's too early so hope you can all therefore give me a free pass to POAS next week (please please please).

Oh and I have one symtom - heightened sense of smell! It must be, surely....

Emki could well be a symtom for you, fingers crossed!

guff how many days past OV are you? X

guff also sounds like a very promising symptom - fingers crossed!

10 days PO

Good afternoon ladies, may I join you in this bfps all the way thread. Have had 3 mcs and ttc for 2 years and need to up the game xx

Oh dildoos you have been through a really terrible time! Hope you find some support here-

guff ahhhh! Fingers crossed!! Hieghtened sense of Smell is definitely very promising!!

Heightened - even x

hi dildoos is your name suggesting something else we should add to the list of project desperate?? not sure how they'd work but i'm game for anything!

eeeek guff could be, could be... I'm in a big fat glass house so can't say no to early POAS next week. Patience is clearly a virtue that i lack.

Sounds like this thread is already getting lucky! All hail poas!! I love to wee on anything in hope for bfp I poas today 4 days early and of course got a bfn with a tescos test!
Am afraid dildoos is what I call my daughter lol she is a Delila ( plain white t's not Tom jones )
However if the other got me a bfp I would but I would also walk around with male dirty pants onmy head if that worked too so you know pretty desperate!!
However 4 days to go sis I law pregnant, best friend pregnant and I am holding onto the hope that the period pains are all in my head !
Xxx

Hi ladies - apologies in advance for mememe post! I POAS this morning (fish slaps accepted) and there may have been the tiniest faintest hint of a line... However I'm not convinced that its not in my imagination or an evap line as its way too early (10DPO) and it was a cheapy test from Home Bargains!! It was too faint even to get on a photo, so will just have to test over the next few days and see what happens...

Welcome newbies. Dildoos may I direct you to the thread rules? POAS only allowed on a Friday!

Unless you want slapping with a fish!
Thunder am I confusing you with someone else re thyroid? Was there someone else on the thread who's levels were really high and might take some time to come down to acceptable levels?

Whoops sorry for the poas , I now have to wait for 8 days as cannot possibly tomorrow after today I will wait til next Friday and take it as punishment ! X
