Oops the other one got full before new one made. Kept the same name to make it easier to find.

That’s why I kept the same name to make it easier! Plus I’m not very creative with post names like some on here

@Primrose16 once it's all done I'll Defo share. (Unless it's sh*t) haha!

Hi everyone. I had a mc over 2 weeks ago. My question is should I wait before ttc? Before that a mmc at the beginning of Dec. OPK are telling me high today

strawberrye · 24/02/2018 07:04

@Pinkcar123 hello and sorry you have found yourself here. You can start TTC as soon as you feel emotionally ready and when the bleeding has stopped. Some healthcare professionals say wait a cycle but that is purely to make dating the pregnancy easier if you fell pregnant before your next AF. Hope that helps and good luck x

Pinkcar123 · 24/02/2018 07:20

Thank you Strawberry. I am 40 in a few months and so wanted to be pregnant before my birthday. Time feels of the essence

Primrose16 · 24/02/2018 07:51

Go for it @pinkcar

Ahh I found you! I was thinking it was weird no-one had written anything, then wrote a big long post and saw thread was closed. Haha bit slow on the uptake! 🤣🤣

Boboelephant · 24/02/2018 08:19

@Pinkcar123 I say go for it too. Take advantage of the fertile time!

I started taking the seven seas tablets yesterday and have fertility acupuncture booked in for next week. CD10 here. C'mon March!!!!

Pinkcar123 · 24/02/2018 08:49

I love that Bobo. C'mon! 😁

Cakelaur · 24/02/2018 09:40

Yeah! @Boboelephant I have a chiropractor appointment on Monday and I'm gonna ask them to poke me somewhere that relates to fertility!! I was so scared to make an appointment Incase it interfered with ttc. I've had severe back pain for years and once i fell pregnant I refused to have any appointments Incase it broke the baby. Then I mc'd anyway. So I thought meh.. what the hell!! Haha
Have you have fertility acupuncture before?

Boboelephant · 24/02/2018 09:56

@Pinkcar123 😀👍
@Cakelaur haha get them to poke away!!! I really hope it helps your back pain. And gets you your bfp! I've struggled with severe back pain for 18 months since my EP and hoping it will help with that too. No this is the first one so I've got everything crossed for a miracle result! I had normal acupuncture a couple of times when I was 2 weeks overdue with DS. Didn't bring him on but was relaxing so who knows!? I figure anything is worth a shot and I've heard good things. 🤞🤞 Your post on the last thread made me laugh. I've also given DH his schedule and forbidden any 'alone time' on the days off! 🤣🤣

Lovemysparkle · 24/02/2018 09:59

Morning all quick update cycles have been 26 days for months (maybe 27 or 28 now & again) tested Thursday bfn!!! I have all of my usual pms symptoms except tummy pains have completely worn off & been replaced by sorry tmi terrible wind🙈 veiny boobs look like a road map haven’t tested again & trying to firmly keep feet on the ground & enjoy my acupuncture this afternoon!!

Lovemysparkle · 24/02/2018 10:10

Forgot to say have had terrible nausea!! Have had this before & since my last mc in July 17 pms symptoms are extremely full on especially menstral migraine so have made doctors appointment, so today is cd27 for me just don’t wanna be disappointed with af playing with me so will try & hold out till Monday Tuesday when I will be officially late!!!

PumpkinPatch000 · 24/02/2018 11:38

@Claire138 - I know! It ended up a lot longer than I had intended oops!

@Cakelaur - that sounds like such a lovely idea. I look forward to seeing it if you share on the boards.

@star88 i'll keep my fingers crossed for you. As long as AF hasn't arrived yet you are still in with a chance.

Kingy2910 · 24/02/2018 12:23

Hey ladies I'm such a donut......thought I'd be abandoned or going mental reading the same posts hahaha anyway found you all!!!! Glad you're doing better pumpkin n sorry to see some newbies too.......Im really confuzzled myself I just don't know when to expect af.......if it's the same cycle as before I think I'm due now but we have been dtd so if it doesn't cone when do I test????? Apparently I need to test next Wednesday as the epu said to do so but I don't want to as it was the day my 12 week scan was booked in......so ladies what do I do hhhmmmmm...

Kingy2910 · 24/02/2018 12:25

🤔🤔🤔🤔 oh and I've finally found pics too 👍👍👍I'm getting good at this technology lark haha

PumpkinPatch000 · 24/02/2018 12:47

I'm in the same position @kingy2910 with regards to testing. It's hard to know what to do. I'll leave it as long as I can stand I think as i'm scared to test. I don't blame you for not wanting to test next wed, maybe do it a day or two after?

Boboelephant · 24/02/2018 12:49

@Lovemysparkle fingers crossed this is your month! 🤞
@PumpkinPatch000 I thought it was lovely you took the time to write to everyone 😀 So glad you're feeling a bit better.
Fingers crossed for everyone this month!!
@Kingy2910 did the EPU say next Wed as it's a certain amount of time since? I'm sure testing Tues or Thurs will be fine and saves you the mental heartache a bit!

Kingy2910 · 24/02/2018 12:55

Hi boboelephant EPU said two weeks which is next Wednesday but thinking about it I had mc two weeks before that (I left it a while to go back to epu) sooooo it's been actually 4 weeks since mc, if I go by previous cycles I would have ovulated around mid month which is when we was "at it like rabbits" and I think af is due now (ish)....I really don't know how I feel today. If af shows I'll be gutted as expected but then I'm too scared to test as if it is positive I'll then be worried if it's real or not.. .get my drift???? I know i waffle sometimes

PumpkinPatch000 · 24/02/2018 13:11

Thank you @Boboelephant :)

Boboelephant · 24/02/2018 13:33

Yeah @Kingy2910 I understand. That's a tough one! Did you have signs of ovulation? Maybe try and hold out to test Tuesday? Fingers crossed 🤞

Hortonlovesahoo · 24/02/2018 13:40

Hi all,

A bit of a weird one for me. I've still got pregnancy symptoms (breast milk being produced, sensitive nose etc). It's really a mindfu*k.

Hope that everyone is doing well!

PumpkinPatch000 · 24/02/2018 13:48

Sorry to hear that @Hortonlovesahoo I hope the pregnancy symptoms go soon. I think it's cruel they hang around for so long

17caterpillars1mouse · 24/02/2018 14:28
