TTC after pregnancy loss - lucky thread 13

[TheGrumpySquirrel]

Hi guys I couldn't see a new thread so hope you don't mind me starting it off @BertieBotts ?

Oh that looks good Bluee

Well I'm 4dpo and so still have a thousand years to wait. Deep down I don't really feel like this is it, but every so often my side twinges a bit or my boobs feel a tiny bit twingey/cold too. But I know I'm just looking for anything similar to May and just fucking fuck this fuckery

Good luck blue for tomorrows testing!

Blue, that looks good to me!!!!

kezza oh i know! I've done that before :(
This appeared at 1 min and stayed positive where as when it happened last time it then turned bfn by 3mins.. mind f**k!
Unicorn I've been doing the same but looking back on ovia at the 2 cycles i conceived! I'm following a similar pattern though... cramps..left pelvic pain(and also right this time 🤔) and not really much cm.

Thanks everyone. It's kinda hard to be hopeful isn't it! Xx

Fingers crossed the line darkens blue! 🌈

Ohh bluespottytiger that looks promising! Crossing fingers.
(I'm a researcher btw, so I get to travel for work a bit, which I love).

Bean sorry for BFN, I always test really early too.

Mummykezza my ov was 2 weeks later than normal this mc cycle.

Working this weekend. It's an event, so I know it will be fun but I'd rather be under a blanket with some cake.

Hi guys, just been trying to have a catch up on here as I'm on holiday at the mo.
Good luck with the next test Blue fingers crossed for you.

Flat and Kerry hope you're feeling a bit more positive about things, sorry to hear you've been feeling down recently.

Grey very annoying you're going to miss a window by being away.. although it could give you a break and the next one after that could be the one?!

Coastal sorry to hear about your crappy holiday. I'm currently away on a chilled girly holiday... great to be away but it seems to be 'bring your new borns / babies on holiday time' - they seem to be everywhere and it just keeps reminding me of everything

NoCatsHere / GrumpySquirrel and everyone else - YES.. fingers crossed for a reason to celebrate this Xmas!

Everyone who's in their TWW... sending lots of luck.

I'm currently 29days post 2nd ERPC (as 1st failed) and no sign of AF yet!! I normally have 26 / 27 day cycles but not even any symptoms yet.... Did anyone get your normal symptoms before your first AF after your MC / ERPC (sore boobs etc)?

HayBay thanks for the thoughtful check in! I am feeling a bit less grim now!

I didn't have all the symptoms I usually get but I did get at least a couple - cramps and back pain a few days before period started and a sleepless night before it started. And I was very very very angry!

I know it sucks waiting and feeling like things might be all skewiff. I'm now in my fertile period post mc and not getting my usual amount of ewcm. Fingers crossed things settle back into a more predictable pattern soon!

Glad to hear you're feeling better. I know... our poor bodies and what we have to go through hey! Although I don't exactly want my AF it would be good for her to show up soon so I can start to get back to normal! Spose she will come when she's ready... hopefully once I'm back from holiday so I can enjoy my last few days on the beach before getting back to reality.
Good you're in your fertile window now post mc... fingers crossed for success soon?! When did you mc KerryLeanne

Hi folks,
Wondering if I can join you?
I had a miscarriage in July. I was 10 weeks. I'd had hyperemesis and so we decided to have a bit of a rest before trying again so I could regain strength/vitamin levels before getting it again. This was our first month TTC again and just got AF. Sat here distraught and just realising the sadness of BFN is doubly awful after MC isn't it? I miss our little one so intensely and wish we weren't here. My heart aches for a little baby.

Sorry to see you here purple. I too mc in July at 12 weeks so I guess we weren't far apart.

I hope you feel better in yourself regarding getting your strength back. It sure takes a lot out of you. I hope you get your bfp soon. It sucks getting AF afterwards because it just confirms the loss month after month

Haybay I had a missed miscarriage in August at almost 12 weeks - the baby had died at 8.5 weeks at the beginning of August. It's such a hard time but speaking to other women who've been through the same thing is really helpful ❤️

Hi purple, I too MC in July I think i recognise you from the HG group?

Hi weasledee. I recognise you too....I think it was a TTC group before the HG group maybe? Sorry to see you here. X.

Thanks unicorns. Good to offload to those that know....sorry you're all here. X

That looks promising @BlueeSpottyTiger! Fingers crossed.

Can anyone remember how many DPO pregnancy symptoms started for you? I can't remember! My first symptom was sore boobs.

So sorry Purple

So sorry @Purplepjs. As horrible as it is that we are united here by sadness, this is a very supportive thread. I'm dreading getting a BFN in a couple of weeks, as I just have a feeling this month hasn't worked. It'll be 2 days before my birthday too, and the same week of what should have been our 20 week scan. Rubbish timing. Hope you're feeling a little better this evening. X

KerryLeanne so sorry to hear that. Have you got any other children? This was our first, we had mmc end of July at around 8weeks and the baby had died around 6-7 weeks (although I would have only found out at my 12 week scan if it wasn't for a random pain I had on my right ovary as I had no mc symptoms at all and all the pregnancy symptoms++). Definitely agree that speaking to others is a big help x

haybay no, our first too after trying for almost 2 years 🍁 Glad you're here with us!

purple welcome and I'm sorry that you're having to go through this

Hi Purplepjs sorry to see you here but stay strong. Fingers crossed next month is the month. I also mc'd in July.. still waiting for first af so we can start ttc again

KerryLeanne I hope it doesn't take you as long this time round (and us). It took us around 10-11months. Have you had any tests done for fertility etc

I had a miscarriage in April, been trying ever since. Period is 9 days late, got a positive digital on Monday when I was 5 days late, took another digital an hour later, not pregnant. Went to dr and was told to trust the positive and she refused to test me so went and bought 4x supermarket own brand. All negative including one taken with FMU. Went back to dr and he isn't willing to do bloods until the 16th of October!!! Took another test this morning with morning urine and still negative. What's going on? I'm worried it's a chemical pregnancy although I'm now 9 days late and no bleeding although I have had some quite strong cramping..

@Bluee I can definitely see a line, fingers crossed it's even stronger tomorrow!!

@Beccasx that does sound weird Hun, I've no advice I'm afraid apart from test again tomorrow or next day. Maybe it was a chemical but then wouldn't it start to bleed straight away? I don't really know much about chemical pregnancies, sorry xx

@unicorns I am also 4 dpo. When will you test? I usually show pretty convincingly on day 10 and have no patience so will probs start on day 9 but then you get the squinters
