TTC after miscarriage - new thread

[InsufficientlyCaffeinated]

I just spotted that the old thread was now closed to new messages so thought I'd start another. The old thread for reference: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2457787-TTC-1-after-miscarriage-looking-for-some-buddies

Elderberries that is exciting! Enjoy! Amy I'm waiting for af too! hurry up witch!

Enjoy the time off Elderberries

We went today and met my new nephew. I overcame my worries and held him and the little sod promptly filled his nappy (in our family if you are holding the perpretrator you get the job of cleaning it up). So I also changed a lovely poopy nappy. I am being smug as i managed to do it without waking him up (apparently so far he has detected the first breeze of air and screamed the place down every time no matter how sound asleep he was). It was hard to consider doing it, but I am over that hurdle now. Now I just need to survive my due date in may and I am over all the worst hurdles.

Early night for me tonight. I am shattered now. I did lots of cooking to take down with us (and a cake) and decorated the cake with my older nephew while down there. Then came home to church and went into work for a while after I had walked DDog.

Now that the wedding is over I can share a picture (brag) of the cake I made for it.

That cake is amazing!

Brenna you seem such an interesting person with lots to share!

I love reading your posts xx

I know it's far too early to drool over cake but Brenna that's amazing!

Morning all!

Brenna the cake looks amazing!

Dtd last night and af decided to make her appearance during our moment!! I'm officially cd1, I'm quite relieved she's arrived as I thought she'd never come. Terribly crampy at the min but it seems normal, not really heavy either YET!

My cat also decided to bring me a present of a half eaten vole too which was lovely but not as nice as Brenna's cake...

Hope everyone has a good day

Brenna that cake is amazing! My due date was also in May (27th), I'm really dreading it.

How is everyone getting on? CD11 for me and I'm not most fertile until Sunday so this should be an interesting week :)

I'm so grateful that I'm not constantly thinking about my cycle days and TTC anymore, I just take each day as it comes and I'm so more relaxed. I don't know how I have done it but IO'm really proud of myself.. I just wanted to share that with you lovely ladies because I wouldn't say it to anyone in person, it's quite big headed.. perhaps.

Have a lovely day!

That sounds great Schenker, I'm glad you've managed to find some peace of mind.

After my excitement/anxiety about all the symptoms I've decided not to test or fret until my AF is due at the weekend. Don't want to be POAS every day and getting frustrated with BFNs

Insufficiently well done you! I became so much more relaxed when I stopped testing before AF was due.. But I might test a few days earlier this month. I have a good feeling

Fingers crossed for you x

Insuffiently & schenker glad you both feel more relaxed. I'm hoping I can chill a bit more now my first af had arrived. I least I know my cycles are on track and my temps did show I ov'd when I thought I did.

I'm going to carry on with tracking I've decided and using my opk's from cd7 till I get my surge and not POAS at all until/if I'm a few days late. To resist temptation I asked dh to hide my IC's from me! He's done a good job, didn't find them whilst I was cleaning this morning. He also knows I was obsessed with them while I was watching my hcg hormone disappear.

AmyB good luck to you my lovely. Take each day as it comes (easier said than done).

Just to let everyone know that I'm having a change of username. I think my current one identifies me a little bit more than I would like.

Struggling today. No sign of af but still BFNS on tests. I don't feel pregnant but want af so that I can start again!

Today I've got bloody discharge and so am terrified I'm about to miscarry again. Saw my GP who said not to panic unless it's proper red blood and it could be nothing. Got a scan at early pregnancy unit booked Wednesday afternoon so praying my bean stays put- really want to see it.

Fx for you, Snowy. Can't imagine how scary it must be for you. Hope everything is OK.

snowberry I can imagine how scary that must be. How many weeks are you? If it's brown and within discharge it could be old blood. Fingers crossed for Wednesday, I hope you get good news

Fingers crossed for you Snowy and Insufficiently

I'm now on cd24, still having weird discharge messing with me and trying not to symptom spot and failing! I have no idea when I'm due AF, last cycle was 28days but anything up to 34 is normal for me.

I so hope this is my month but trying not to get my hopes up for them to be dashed again.

And I've deleted Ovia, feel so much better for it! Want to be like Schenker chilled!

I hope everything is ok Snowy, you must be terrified.

Thank you all for your kind words about the cake. It makes it easier for me to chat about normal life as well as conception (not that my life is ever normal ).

I hope everyting goes well with the specialist Mrs

Finally got a very positive opk this morning. i haven't had af since I lost my last pregnancy at the start of Feb. I know I'm going to be a total wreck during this 2ww. Especially as it would've been the due date of my ectopic pregnancy this coming weekend. I'm so anxious about getting pregnant again incase it's ectopic again but so desperately want to be pregnant as well! This is hard work.

I've got everything crossed for you Snowy :( I cannot imagine how terrifying that is!

Think I mentioned before but just so everyone knows, this is Schenker (I've had a name change )

Has anyone tried PreeSeed, I think it's called? I don't have any trouble with lubrication etc or fertile cm, but maybe it'll help anyway? I just don't know. Any input would be fab.

CD 30 today. Never had one of those before. BFN yesterday so I know I'm not pregnant. Just want to go back to normal now.

Hi everyone...

Actlikeyouknow I've not tried preseed but know people who have and have found it useful.

Loki have you been more stressed than normal? Could be that delaying your period.

Good luck to anyone in their tww.

My af is extremely heavy now. I've been out shopping with my mum and it filled my mooncup and overflowed luckily I had a pad on too just in case that happened. It's not painful today though. Hopefully today will be the heaviest and will chill a bit tomorrow as I'm at work in the morning don't want to be overflowing whilst I'm there

Wishing you the best of luck Snowy what time is your appointment tomorrow?

Thanks everyone. My scan is tomorrow afternoon. Everything seems to be ok today so hoping to see bean all safely tucked up and growing tomorrow.
