TTC after MC #5

[Bristolian1]

New thread!
This thread pretty much does what it says on the tin...
Shall we start with some stats?
I'm 32, TTC since last Jan, 2x MMC last year and on second cycle of trying again.

Thanks for the encouragement kep

brickie I think I can see something but I'd be wary if it might have been after the 10 min window? Is it pinky or grey? Evap lines are grey. I'd say you should wait but if it was me I'd probably poa-frer! But you should probably wait, especially as you should use FMU.

Arghh it's so difficult to say. Test again tomorrow morning if you can hold on? X

Madgie did you do it? Put us out of our misery. If you haven't buy one and do it tomorrow at the latest. I've never used a digital because I don't want to see those not pregnant words. You could always just do a cheap own brand. I have used tescos and boots.

brickie I have rubbish mc eyes so not sure what I see there. Maybe test again in the morning.

Well my day's not gone to plan but ok. Trying to leave my boobs alone... Been doing the repeated squeeze test... Do they hurt? Not really. Are you sure? Well that could just be cos AF is on her way... Are they biggest? Sore? Anything. Must have looked like a right loon at the park this afternoon because I do it subconsciously and forget I'm in public. Weirdo me!

Well I decided not to go out for a frer as it would just end up a big waste of money probably. May poas on an ic tomorrow but unless af decides to be absent I'm not spending on tests.

I've kinda decided that if af does appear this month I'm taking a good break from ttc. We're going on holiday in July and I should've been heavily pregnant. I don't think I can handle being in the really early stages awaiting miscarriage or still ttc. I'd rather be having a local cider by the pool and relaxing tbh. If I've not conceived this month then I think I should just wait until afterwards and not stress out and freak out on holiday.

brickie I have my fingers crossed for you still. At least a holiday should help you relax so you can try again feeling a little less stressed?

Just bought a clear blue - mainly because ive only ever got a BFP on those so I feel like they're lucky - even though ive had BFNs too haha!
Just going to hold my wee in for a few hours then test. Still not feeling hopeful as ive had more af type cramps, but at least it will put me out of my own misery! Will keep you all updated!

Oh my god madgie the suspense. I really hope its a bfp. You deserve it x

?well - that settles that one!

Woop woop woop woop madgie!! very happy for you. Esp after all that shagging!!

Thank you mrsd - ive worn myself out this month! As much as I doubted myself I just "knew" yesterday but I can't quite believe it! It's early days so I don't want to get too excited.. I'm going to "proceed with caution" so to speak - I haven't stopped shaking though!

Congratulations madgie Really pleased for you. Wishing you health and happy 9 months! smile

madgie

FABULOUS NEWS! What a lovely thing to see.

Tbh it gives me hope that we'll all get there- we managed it before!

Thank you red and littleb Sorry if it seemed like I was rubbing it in posting a picture - just wanted a show it can and will happen sort of thing. Thank you for all your kind messages x

madgie, so pleased for you! Better make it a night of Virgin cocktails... Sending you strong boring vibes for the next 9 months.

My niece in law (dnil??) had her baby today, it's been an awful pregnancy and he arrived exactly at 30 weeks. A little fighter already but there are some long worrying weeks ahead for them. He was due the same time as our mc2 would have been. I'm all in a churn, so worried for them but also heart sore for us. Cor these feelings aren't East are they?!

thank you MrsC hugs to you, I hope your family are coping. Can imagine it must bring back all sort of emotions and sadness right now.
Hugs

Morning all. I dipped my toe in here after my MC on the 14/2 and then scuttled away as I wasn't coping well with anything, was feeling helpless and lost.

Anyway, my period is due on Friday and due to a ridiculous dream I thought I would do a test and I think it's positive. Before I start screaming the place down, can anyone confirm that it is another pregnancy and won't just be left over hormones? I was scanned on the 21/2 and everything was gone.

I am terrified!

Also, congratulations to everyone who has had a BFP since I was last on.

Congrats madgie - hooray! Is this the first BFP on the new thread?? Hope it's the first of many more.
biscuit did you ever get a negative test after mc? I'm sure it's a fresh pregnancy though if you were given the all clear at scan and it would be a long time for hormones to be sticking around. Congrats to you too.

It looks like a new one biscuit. Have you had an AF since the mc?

Well I'm rubbish. Tested today and a big fat zilch. Hey ho. On wards and upwards. Maybe after some and for good measure.

Congratulations biscuit! It is most likely a new pregnancy I think. Your timings sound similar to me. I Mc on 12th and everything was gone by the 19th, confirmed by a scan. However I continued to get a bfp for another 10 days before getting a bfn, which means the hormones had gone by then.

Have you had a period since the mc?

Have you ever tested and had a bfn? If so this must be a new pregnancy!

Woop woop madgie so pleased for you
Tentative congrats biscuit I mc on the 13/2 and was getting a negative 3 weeks after so I'm sure you must be pregnant again.
mrsd onwards and upwards as you say.
red when are you poas?
I've worked out that we can have one more month of trying as it would make me 15 weeks on holiday, that would be ok. If that doesn't work out though we'll take a break. I couldn't handle being 11 weeks and missing the scan. I'd be too worried to enjoy the holiday.

Yes, had a period 4 weeks after MC.

Jeez, this is it again? What a funny mix of feelings. Overjoyed with a huge dollop of fear.

mrs a bfn is only a bfn if it stays that way and af comes- fingers crossed!

brickie good plan about the holiday. Good to have another try waiting, particularly as you/we should hopefully definitely ov during the 3rd cycle, although this one isn't over yet!

If things were as they were before Mc I should have ov'd last Monday or Tuesday CD 21ish. I'm going to try my best not to test early so wait until at least next Monday. Not sure what's going on though as I have had spotting for the last four days- since CD 21. It looks like it might have stopped today. In my dream world it is implantation bleeding but that would mean I ov'd very early. And I didn't get implantation bleeding the last time. I have been googling and seeing that it could mean low progesterone. Who knows. All quite annoying, but makes me think I should delay testing as long as I can....

Arggg still spotting so it is going on too long for implantation bleeding (now 5 days...)
