TTC after miscarriage Thread 21. JKS

[L1zz13]

New thread 🐧🐧

L1zz13 Hold on, that sounds like such a tough time. Pour your pink gin and take good care of yourself. Xx

WhitleyBae Welcome, sorry for your loss. It's a lovely group of amazing women here

Cleozeta I'm horrified you're being asked to wait so long. Of course you want to move on. Closure is important!

sweetpea0318 That's really rough it's on the same day, I'm sorry.

YellowDaffodils86 I know!! What is this??

I'm getting a bit fretful. I looked on flo and saw with my 2 mcs I got bfps on cd 40 and cd 48. It suggests whatever is causing my mcs is resulting in a late bfp, which means even if I get a bfp soon it's probably happening again. I feel like I'm on a really shit conveyor belt.

@sweetpea0318 baby bombs are bad at the best of times but to have the same due date is worse. I've had the same thing happen bizarrely, it seems to happen to a lot of people!

@Cakelaur he's grown so quickly! Still adorable though. Try to keep your positivity up for the scan on Friday.

I had a lovely day off today. Got a haircut, caught up with a friend who has a 6 week old and also a friend who is due any day now, had lunch with DH and then had a massage before picking DS up from school. CD19 now and ewcm seems to have cleared up. Today is predicted ovulation day so if I don't get a positive opk in the next few days that's how I'll count it. 🤞

Think I may have to try the yoga...

DBoo Congratulations. Fingers crossed for a healthy pregnancy!

Lilimum4 That really made me laugh. He must have been so confused!

Jessabean I have my fingers crossed for you for a sticky bean next time, and I hope it doesn't take too long for it to happen for you.

Thanks Boboelephant and hayleyfx; I have always been vaguely aware of CM but I think I'm going to make more of a conscious effort to track it now. OPKs and temping just seem like they would stress me out but watching for different kinds of CM doesn't seem too bad.

EWCM = GO seems like a good way to get started with it. I am hopeful that I'm still fertile. Hoping to get another BD in this evening. Going to allow myself a bit of champagne because my OH got the job he's been stressing about so we can both fully relax and enjoy tonight.

Feeling a lot more positive than I did a few days ago; but I seem to just be riding these waves every few days since MC. Just enjoying the highs while they last.

@SerenaOverjoyed i am starting to panic slightly. To much googling! Pinging from cervical cancer to ectopic to menopause! 😂whole new level of tww crazy.
My last bfp was at what i thought was at 18dpo. The last test was 12dpo, so dont know if a bfp would have materialised before then. And of course then it resulted in a mc.
I feel the same if i get a bfp soon, i feel it will end in another mc, im not sure i can go round two.
Id rather AF just came!

@Cakelaur do you think? I had bfn at what i thought was 16dpo surely that rules me out.
Good luck for your scan, i have everything crossed.

OMG JUST PASSED A SOLID GRAPE SIZED lump of tissue! Omg what do I do?
No self referral in Milton Keynes!

@L1zz13 oh love this happened to my friend and it turned out to be a bleed from her womb but everything was absolutely fine with baby so please try not to panic! X

@L1zz13 its ok, dont worry. You are having your period right? Its just expelling old tissue maybe. You said you thought that might happen. I think you will ok, but try to relax and not panic

@L1zz13 do you have an out of hours gp you can call for advice? For reassurance if nothing else.

@L1zz13 can you call 111? Or maybe 101, I never remember which. But they can get you an emergency appointment with an out of hours gp

@L1zz13 it's 111, I'd suggest giving them a call

Thanks everyone.

@L1zz13 i suspect its some left over tissue. Af is probably clearing your system out. Is your hcg still up? I bet it drops after this af. Scary as it is i would try not to worry.

@L1zz13 presumably you didn't get open access after MC over there? I wouldn't worry too much unless there was more but would probably call gp tomorrow?
so have "resorted" to dtd even though I have no idea when I'm going to ovulate if at all.

@L1zz13 I am so so sorry, I mistook you for someone else, please forgive me!! In light of that I echo what everyone else has said, it's likely to be old tissue.
Sorry lovely! X

@L1zz13 that's really scary but it sounds like your body is finally doing what it has been trying to do and letting go. Call 111 if you're worried but hopefully this is your closure.

@sweetpea0318 yep I felt the same way. Good to do something relaxing but also feel like I'm doing something productive.
@Cakelaur thanks hun! Oh look how big Teddy has gotten. He's gorgeous. I cannot believe you are over 10 weeks already. 😀 Good luck for Friday. Any reason you stopped the pineapple core at 5dpo?
@SerenaOverjoyed and @YellowDaffodils86 I hope this ends in good news for you both.

Thanks for the new thread.

What do you think of these ladies? I'm only 10dpo but giving blood tomorrow, it's the only reason I've tested.

@L1zz13 hope you're ok babe. Defo contact Gp in the morning. If it gets worse or painful maybe head to a&e

@Boboelephant dunno why only til 5dpo. That's just what I heard. So that's what I did.

Oh Lizzie fingers crossed for you.

Blood clots can be large and fleshy, so please try not to worry. I know that's easier said than done.

@Wellthisunexpected I can see a hint of something there. Can you at again in the morning to be in the safe side?

Thank you my loves. Feeling so much better after ibuprofen and more gin!
Had my sister panicking and ended up reassuring her that I'm okay.

I'm okay. Will phone drs tomorrow and get an emergency app. It was very scary but after the panic not totally unexpected. I knew something wasn't quite right! The lump was very fresh- not Old and brown.
Will attempt to insist on a confirmation scan to check I'm now 'done'.

@Wellthisunexpected I'm not sure. I can't see anything in the first one but possibly something in the second. I hope it is a line for you! Just checking what is the problem with giving blood if you are pregnant?
@L1zz13 ibuprofen and gin sounds just what you needed! Defo try and get a scan to make sure you have the all clear.

Bobo it's one of the questions they ask and they don't let you if you are.

I expect you'd be more likely to faint and more likely to be anemic too so you need all your blood!

@Wellthisunexpected yeah that does make sense but I was thinking about how last time I was pregnant at my midwife apt at 8 weeks I had to give heaps of blood and that wasn't a problem. Maybe test in the morning and then make a decision.

@Cleozeta it definitely is, I’m so sad that all of us had to go through this but so thankful of the support!
@KnitKitty I hope you’re having a good, relaxing night then!
@Cakelaur aww he’s so big now! Gorgeous pup 😍 I have everything crossed for you that Friday goes well hun!! 🤞
@L1zz13 I’m glad you’re feeling better, it’s scary when something like that happens! Definitely insist on a scan and fingers crossed it’s all over for you 🤞
@Wellthisisunexpected hmm that’s a tricky one, I’m really not sure. Can you retest in the morning? Fingers crossed it’s the start of something 🤞

Bobo one of those vials for a blood test collects between 3-10ml of blood so you'd need to give 100 full of them to be anywhere near a blood donation
