@maverick79 both times I didn’t use opks for first cycle after Mc. (First time I didn’t even know they existed! How my life has changed!). I just tried to roughly hit mid-cycle. Both times after first AF I’ve switched to using the Clue app and opks. I use the digital smiley ones as I could t get to grips with the other ones. I think I wee too much for them!
@laney79 that sounds to me like AF and quite like my last experience too. How are you doing with it all atm?

@SerenaOverjoyed sorry to hear that, I always get my hopes up too. Without fail. Next month!! :)
@maverick79 thanks for the tip, I will investigate x

And there she blows! Thank fuckety!
But my god do I feel shitty. Spending the rest of the evening horizontal with the pink gin and co-codomol with reach at all times!

We need to get a new thread started. I'll see if I can do it....

@Pampl3m0usse I grew up in Putnoe. Have lived in kempston and shortstown. Xx moved away 15yrs ago but still have family there so pop back from time to time

Okay done. Got the title a bit wrong struggling to concentrate!

Oh fuck can't change it on my phone. Is that going to be a problem?

I thought one MC was bad but this poor lady has really been through it!

Thanks for new thread @L1zz13 I'm sure the title's fine.

Wow HidCat, that woman is amazing. Honary penguin?

--dunno if I'd let my 10 year old go to ultrasounds if there was repeatedly no heartbeat though.. that stuff if heavy for adults-

Damn strikethrough error!

Thanks @L1zz13.

Everyone new thread is www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/3256408-ttc-after-miscarriage-thread-21-jks

Thanks everyone.
@ek78 I'm a bit up and down-trying to stay positive but the fact I haven't stopped bleeding/spotting does get me down. I'm hoping this is AF though-if it is I hope it's over by 31st when we go on Hols-also means I should hopefully ovulate whilst we are away...but then I have to tell myself not to get hopes up as I get so upset if it goes wrong.

How are you doing?

Hi, not sure if I'm posting correctly or in the right place. I've never been on here before, or any other forum like this... I was just hoping to connect with other people who might be in a similar situation to me. I've had several miscarriages - the first when I was 19 (I'm now 31) & then a couple when I was in my mid-20s, a chemical pregnancy last year & one again last month. I'm with a different partner to the one I had my other losses with. We'd been trying for about 6 months, I'd been doing ovulation strip tests but couldn't work them out & started to panic I wasn't ovulating. After GP blood tests my hormone levels are as they should be & this month I've been using ChatGPT for help me in knowing my cycle, when to test & reading the strips - & with chatGPT help lol I manage to catch my LH surge. I've got a diary where I log everything, I started doing it sporadically last month, but doing it daily now so I can really get to know whats "normal" for me - already I can see things are different this month to last month (highly doubt I'm pregnant this month as we haven't really been trying due to emotions from last month). I've started on Pregnacare conception today, partner on Wellman Conception & we've both got Co-Q10 to take from this evening too. My partner is going for a sperm test in a couple weeks as he has his own anxieties around that (obvs hes got some swimmers 🏊‍♂️, but we want to check they're healthy). I'm doing all I can - but it feels heavy. So much logging, ovulation testing, checking every sign & symptom, daily vitamins, GP tests... feels like a never ending science experiment 🙃. Not only that, people try to help but its hard to just keep hearing; "something was probably wrong" "trust the timing, your time will come" '"it just wasnt to be" ... but why not? The other miscarriages weren't really planned that much & I wasnt in the best position but I was still devasted... This time im at a good age, we're both in work, I have a good career & WFH, I can drop my hrs. It feels like now is my time, so why wasn't it. I feel angry, confused, overwhelmed with the process of it all; lots of emotions... sorry for the long rant 😂❤️
