TTC after pregnancy loss - thread 15 - Christmas miracles

[TheGrumpySquirrel]

New thread!

@Zoo33 You had both? You poor chick, that sounds brutal I hope it drops off quickly, though I'm not sure I'll be so lucky, and I've worked out that if it's like last time I'll still be bleeding over Christmas day. Nothing like a great reminder of your loss to get you into the holiday spirit with everyone hello Scrooge

@UnicornsandRainbows1 Awwww, bleeding over Christmas will suck but at least hopefully you can drown your sorrows. Scrooge nothing, you're entitled to be miserable (that sounds horrible but hopefully you know what I mean).

It was pretty brutal - retained products and I decided I wasn't going to wait any longer for it to pass. I certainly will be opting straight for surgery if this happens again. Hopefully you'll be in and out quickly on Friday and able to start recovering. Have you been at work these last few weeks? Xx

@Zoo33 Maybe I can. Somehow I've deliberately not had a drink since my first pregnancy (not sure how I've done it tbh. Guess I just didn't want to have a reason to be able to drink).

Oh that sounds horrible. It's a personal choice though and in that moment we have to make decisions which we just hope work out. I have been signed off since last Monday just purely because it could have started at anytime (last time it started quite sudden), but it's been pretty slow and maybe I should have gone in. Work with customer's too so I'm not sure I would have held it together if they started complaining about crap.

@UnicornsandRainbows1 I can't say I'd handle grumpy customers very well with all that on my mind either. So glad you're not at work. I reached straight for the alcohol after my miscarriage - although my tolerance levels have gone right down after virtually giving up when we started ttc. Just be careful! xx

Hi everyone.
Not posted for a while, not had much to say!
Welcome to the new people, sorry you are here.
Sorry for what you're going through unicorns
Got my fx for you vox
Hope there's some good news soon!

I've just finished AF. Took 50 days to come after my mc which was the longest 50 days of my life! I had short cycles previously and cervix is now high and soft so hoping I'll be ovulating soon.

Morning all, I’ve not posted in a while.
Got poorly on my honeymoon so pretty sure I haven’t ovulated this month
I’m refusing to talk to a guy o work with because when I had my mc I had a week off to do with it physically and mentally and he made the comment that his wife had recently had a mc and he didn’t take any time off.
I would’ve punched him if it didn’t mean I got fired.
So to hear and those with bfp that aren’t having a good time, fingers crossed!

The lovely epu people have us one last scan when we asked. Idk why I needed it, I think I was just clinging on as I've had no bleeding or pain. It was bittersweet, but I'm glad I got to see them for one last time

Big hugs @UnicornsandRainbows1 x

Ffs. After missing the date af was due and getting symptoms I started to hope. Just started bleeding. Seriously, fuck this.

Tempted to give up. Since my first miscarriage I’ve had six months of hell in which four pregnancies have been lost. Honestly, fuck it.

I'm so so sorry the catspaws
Not really sure what to say but want you to know that we are all here for you xxx

Thank you. Been on the phone to some private clinics. We’re thinking of doing ICSI with screening now, but I’m honestly unsure what to do.

Been trying to stay sane so haven't been on here much...just about to hit fertile week and feeling hopefully and desperate and stupid.

Anyway catspaws I'm sorry you are feeling like this. I hope you get some good advice from the people you've called.

vox tentative congrats. I hope you get a better line on a decent test in maybe 48 hours. I have to say though you give me hope that you've only dtd once this month as that's all we ever seem to manage near when it might be helpful....the moon cup is interesting too. I have one of those, might try it out next time.

Thank you. They’ve been helpful. DP wants to wait until the NHS appointment first.

It looks like my lining might be an issue. I’m upset because I asked this question ages ago when they said it was thin and was told it was fine. Even though my tests show low estrogen.

So sorry to hear TheCatsPaws

I’m fuming. Just got off the phone and they’ve lost my referral!

Oh what shitbags TheCatsPaws

Been down to my GPs with DP. They insist it’s been sent and they’re checking tomorrow. If not they’ll have to do it again. Apparently the doctor can send it as urgent but it’s at their discretion if they lost it then they should do that! I’m so upset.

Also just confirmed bfn. Unsure if this was an evap line in the first place tbh but DP saw it too and thought it looked very real. Sigh.

@TheCatsPaws & @UnicornsandRainbows1 , im so sorry for the shitty time that yous are going through at the minute, there are no words of consolation 😪.

Just wondering does any of you get ewcm the day after you ovulate? Im so confused this cycle & my first m/c due date is friday so everything is really getting to me today 😢

I get EWCM from about day 10 to 16. I ovulate around day 15.

The due date is the worst. Ours is Valentine’s Day. It sucks. :(

@TheCatsPaws it really does suck & no one seems to understand unless unfortunately have gone through it themselves.

aw thank you knowing you get it day after has helped me feel normal!! Going by opk i thought i would have ovulated monday but got ton of ewcm yesterday & couldnt do anythin about it last night so of course im feelin shit already about tww!!

It’s horrible. I hope your day isn’t as bad as you expect and you take care of yourself.

No worries, I find cycles confusing too.

are you ok @UnicornsandRainbows1 ?
Good luck for tomorrow. Will be thinking of you.

How are you doing @Flatwhite32 ?

Has everyone left here for Facebook?

GP has DH sa results but DH is too useless to go and get them

Hi everyone,

@TheGrumpySquirrel I've got a winter lurgy so have been laid low the last few days. Have forced myself in to work every day as I had 3 days off last week when I was bleeding. I'm just shattered, headachey and am losing my voice. Preparing myself for Monday's scan to reveal another MC...

@UnicornsandRainbows1 will be thinking of you tomorrow. Xx

@Flatwhite32 I was wondering when your scan was.

@TheGrumpySquirrel Can you go get them yourself?? I know the feeling (not ttc related though) - my bf is supposed to call the builders who re-did his garage as we need a copy of the guarantee before we sell the house - they won't talk to me as I wasn't on the claim form but he's too busy to do so!

@UnicornsandRainbows1 I hope you're doing okay tonight. Xx
