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.

Oh wow Kep massive congrats!

ItBoils if you're a week late I would def book an appt with gp so that they can do some tests maybe?

Adventure sorry about your dad, I hope he gets better soon Flowers

Weeing a lot but also had a pre AF style clear out. Why my body can't send a bit clearer messages Confused

Tootle10 · 06/05/2015 15:04

Congrats Kep!

adventure sorry to hear about your dad.

Tootle10 · 06/05/2015 15:05

Well that went wrong... Congrats kep!

DisneyMillie · 06/05/2015 18:43

Congrats kep - it's been a successful few days on this thread!!

So sorry about your dad adventure

It's so wrong that it's such a lottery for healthcare - I've had terrible experiences in the past in a different area. It makes it juggling easier knowing how nice mine are here for ttc again.

I thought I'd finished spotting but getting slight brown discharge again (just when wiping). It's almost 2 weeks since my mc now - anyone know if it's safe to have sex or bath once the 2 weeks are up whatever? Tmi but the discharge is so light it wouldn't be noticeable - not sure if it's an infection risk still?

DisneyMillie · 06/05/2015 18:43

Don't know why it wrote juggling I tried to write much?!

Mamama31 · 06/05/2015 19:24

Disney I have had a bath and dtd with light spotting and I'm ok. I was just told whilst bleeding but I wouldn't class very light spotting as bleeding.

DisneyMillie · 06/05/2015 19:36

Thanks mama - I might treat myself to a bath tonightSmile

ibeka · 06/05/2015 19:38

Hooray for kep! Congratulations! Flowers

disney we started DTD a week after surgery as bleeding had stopped. It started again the next day! I had the odd day of spotting for 2 weeks too. I think after a week or so and all the initial 'proper' bleeding you should be fine.

adventure so sorry to read about your dad. I hope he improves really soon.

Nousername2015 · 06/05/2015 20:09

Congrats kep!!
Flowers for you adventure, hope things improve with your dad soon.

Mamama31 · 06/05/2015 20:10

Disney we dtd 4 days after d&c and I had a bath a week after. I love my baths, I was a bit worried about it but was fine. A nice relaxing bath is just what we all need after something like this!

Fizzie100 · 06/05/2015 20:12

Hey ladies, just catching up a bit as have been a bit quiet last week. Huge congrats Brickie and tootle wonderful news!
We had our early 8 week private scan tonight and so very happy to say we saw our little bean measuring 7 weeks 5 days (I suspected so as have 30day cycle) and a lovely strong heartbeat. I cried and cried with relief and even though know we have a long way to go, if feels somewhat of a reassurance to have seen that all is ok so far. Wishing everyone lots of BFPs very soon and like Brickie I hope ok I still stay on here too as you're all so lovely and reassuring and kind xxx

Fizzie100 · 06/05/2015 20:13

And kep too! Awesome x

ItBoilsMyPiss · 06/05/2015 21:20

I for one am absolutely loving all the BFPs and scans, keep em rolling in please Grin

Nordicmom · 06/05/2015 21:32

A faintest of the faint shadow of a plus on the cb but still spotting too for the third day ( am on 7 dpo ) so have a bad feeling I'm heading for another cb . Have been feeling increasingly nauseous and boobs ache etc going to toilet more . Due to bleeding am not hopeful

Nordicmom · 06/05/2015 21:33

Fizzie congrats on the scan . What a relief :)

MarysPrayer · 06/05/2015 21:43

Congrats kep.

Great news Fizzie

Yes, I would love all the bfps to stay on the thread too Smile

goneswimming · 06/05/2015 22:26

Hi everyone... We had a mc two weeks ago. I think I'm ovulating again today, but my DH has to take meds to make everything function so we can't DTD till tomorrow night- week that be too late do we think? Does anyone know how precise your timing has to be to conceive? ( I can hear myself sounding obsessive.)

mrsdiddlydoo · 06/05/2015 22:39

fizzie great scan news! Made up for you x

Mamama31 · 06/05/2015 23:13

Fizzie lovely news!

Goneswimming the egg could still be around def dtd as soon as you can!

kep1979 · 07/05/2015 06:50

fizzie brilliant news!

I am going to hang around too if that's ok; i did venture over to the other thread but until i miss my period i feel a bit weird about it. Still in shock - did a CB digi this morning and got the magic words. Got a bit of a love hate relationship with those tests as it took ages to change to 2-3 weeks last time and didn't tick over to 3+ which was my first sign there was anything wrong. So going to try to hold off testing again for a while.

Also trying not to worry about lack of sysmptoms. I have had terrible disturbed sleep the last few days, and needingto get up to wee. But my boobs haven't started hurting yet, slightly sensitive nips, but not full blown panful baps. Will be grateful when i start feeling shit! Mind you, i am only (according to my bbt chart) only 9dpo today. I suspect i'm actually a day or two ahead of that but i know docs will only take my lmp anyway, which puts me 4 days ahead. So i'm somewhere between 3+1 and 3+5 i think. Such early days.

Sorry for the essay!

Oh and ps meant to say the only thing we did different this month was to take Bromelain (pineapple core extract) on 1-5 dpo to aid implantation. I am debating on taking baby aspirin now, but nervous about taking without dr prescribing. So may try kiwi instead

brickiemum2 · 07/05/2015 07:12

The only thing I did different this month was to not try, test or even think what cycle day I was on Grin In fact looking back on it we dtd on day 12, I suspect ov on day 13 then didn't dtd again until day 16 then were away from home so didn't get another go in. Maybe I had been over working him on other months Hmm Af should be due today but test still nice and positive this morning and boobs are agony. Hopefully by the end of today I'll be calling it 4 weeks today. 3 weeks until the crucial scan.

fizzie lovely news about the scan Smile
goneswimming go for it! You never know unless you try.
Any news nordic ?

Romeolovesjuliet · 07/05/2015 07:21

Great news on re scan fizzie.
Pretty fed up here CD14 and cbfm still saying low Hmm would normally get my first peak today although first cycle after mc was cd17. I would normally get highs from cd11 so no idea what is going on - I did miss a stick on cd11 but I don't think that's it - think I just won't ov this month. Annoyed as we have been timing DTD well or so I thought... I did get a temp drop this am which I got before ov last month so will see what tomorrow brings but not feeling hopeful. So 2 weeks of waiting to get started again now - feels endless at the moment Sad

brickiemum2 · 07/05/2015 08:28

Disney this was cycle 4 after mc. We have been ttc since right after it. Previously I conceived my dd 14 days after a mc so it is possible.

CarrotPuff · 07/05/2015 09:11

That's brilliant news Fizzie, congrats Flowers

AF got me yesterday. I hate TTC Sad

brickiemum2 · 07/05/2015 10:25
