TTC after recurrent miscarriage thread 2 - we're not giving up

[UnicornsandRainbows1]

Shiny new thread! :)

Congratulations @Haffertee4. That’s a great line for a cheap test, they often take ages to get dark. I understand completely what you are saying about it being a maybe, will keep everything crossed it’s 4th time lucky for you.

@Haffertee4 congrats, brilliant line 😊!! Hope this is a very uneventful boring next 36weeks for you. Keep hopeful & positive though i know how hard that is for us in this position!

Ive changed my name ladies from di626, in case wondering who the randomer is lol

Was slightly puzzled by the new name! thank you everyone. Trying to keep calm about it, will tell a few people today and that will help a bit I think. They know our walk with this so are helpful! Trying To focus on the fact that I can't do anything to make this ok or not really ( other than taking vitamins And not being an idiot) it's totally out of my hands so worrying isn't going to achieve anything.

I didn’t tell anyone about this pregnancy and then have been devastated about MMC so have told close friends. I think if there’s another pregnancy I will tell close friends.

Was house viewing yesterday (trying to go on as normal while waiting for medical management. Agent showing us around kept asking about whether we would have more children, why we’ve left such an age gap etc, would we consider looking at 2 beds if we have an only child... I burst into tears which obviously left us all embarrassed but hopefully he will think in future before being so rude.

Delurking to say congratulations haffertee! Fingers crossed it is a sticky one.

Oh paranormal that sounds so tough. People just have no idea sometimes.

A quick update to say I had a succesful scan at 11 weeks on Friday. That's the last of my reassurance scans, next stop dating scan.

That’s amazing haff, massive congratulations! Very happy for you.

Well I think that's me out. Despite still getting stupid faint positives (why haven't you left yet?!?!) the cramping has started, I'm due on Friday and I think it might come a bit sooner than that. Onwards and upwards. At least I had a full cycle with only one day of spotting in between.

Oh unicorns, I’m sorry. Cramping though, you never know, doesn’t necessarily mean af is on its way. Do you usually get it beforehand? I’ve had exactly the same feelings pre af and bfp. It’s incrdibly bloody frustrating and confusing.

How are you feeling? Is work less crappy?

@AnneLovesGilbert I usually do, a couple of days before I'm due (which is around Friday). Even if it is, part of me is thinking well at least I had cycle 1 (no matter how fucked up) and it was still near enough the normal amount of days. And with hcg. That's some good going.

It is less crappy thankfully. I have another review in a couple/few months as I'm still on probation but hoping I can just keep my head down and improve.

Glad work is better.

I’ve had ewcm for 3 days. What’s that all about? Dtd like crazy But why?!

@AnneLovesGilbert So... I think you were right a couple of days ago

You're pregnant?!!!!!!!!!! As in a new pregnancy?

It appears to be! It was practically non-existent yesterday so how it's done that I don't know (so I went crazy and did multiple ic and this FR-RR (so not quite a FRER but whatever )

Just brill @UnicornsandRainbows1 - hopefully brings a litte luck for rest of us 😁

That is a beautiful line

Amazing news! How are you feeling? Cramping isn't always bad

How are you doing @keepinghopeful?

We could do with some luck!

Yeah @AnneLovesGilbert not too bad, good days & bad. Random spotting yday at 4dpo so not sure what thats about & my temps are lower than normal at this stage of cycle so its v annoying!! How are you hun? I just want to be pregnant 🙄

That's odd, have you had that before?

Me too love. More than anything. I'd have sworn blind I was ovulating on Saturday. Loads of ewcm, bit bloated, fluttering ache in the usual inside the hipbone area. It's now Wednesday, cm is copious, watery and egg whitey and my temp is going down!

Most confusing.

No never had it on its own before ... sometimes have slight bleed after BM after ov but it is more light pink & later on maybe 7/8dpo- dunno what body doing!!

Ahh flip why can things not be straightforward! When do u normally ov?

@AnneLovesGilbert sometimes my temp dips right before ov ... keep an eye. Do u use opk's?

Mine too, but it tends to be level-ish, then dip, then rise, then level out but higher. I don't use OPKs. Apart from my anomaly of a December cycle, which I can't explain, I find temping really nice for confirming ovulation. What's different this cycle is I've honestly felt like I've been ovulating constantly since Saturday morning, which isn't possible, so just intrigued by what's going on.

Anne
Could be ovulation from both sides??? I am sure that's possible. I think I remember from one of my books that sometimes your body warms up to ov but then it can calm down again, only to really go for it to get the egg out!
I am in a right rage just now. Docs have been fuckwits. Hospital have written to GP seeking that they do a blood test in 3 months time (bearing in mind it's now 4.5 months since Eilidh was born) to check for the strange rheumatology results. Also it's a blood test the GP has never heard of.
Congratulations unicorns. Great news.

@Miami81 why does it have to be in 3 months time!? Why not now?

Wonderful news unicorns! Really pleased for you. Keep on, random spotting is very frustrating, I had that last month too, never had it before was really weird.
Sorry can't be more help with the charts Anne as I've never done one. I think this whole process has basically taught me that every time you figure out what your body is doing it does something random just to confuse you!
All quiet here, no bleeding and it's been a week since my af was due, so got further than last time. Been crampy and stretchy/heavy type feelings which has me dashing to the toilet to check for blood but a bit better today. Exhausted!

How stupid Miami, is there a reason for 3 months? Seems bizarre!
