Here's the new thread. This is a lovely supportive thread for anyone who has suffered the loss of a much wanted baby. Affectionately known as the penguin huddle- this is the place to survive the ups and downs of this crazy journey.

Kicking off with a roll call:

TTC: baby number 1
Miscarriage at 5 weeks May2018.

Getting married next week, 7th July 2018 👰🏼🤵🏻💍😬😬😬

Just thought I’d quickly drop in for the role call and let you all know it’s 1 week to go AND fertile week falls exactly over the wedding!!! How exciting!!! Not tracking just using what I call “predication apps” (Ovia in my case!)

Hope everyone is well. I will continue to spy and catch up after big day/honeymoon (and hope to see some BFP’s!!!) xxx

Hi All,
I've been following this thread this week so thought I'd better declare myself rather than just lurking

MMC @ 6 weeks 5 days but actually didn't miscarry until 12 weeks 1 day on 25th June.
Currently got my focus on a negative pregnancy test - oh the irony, so we can crack back on.
Am totally up and down emotionally
Xx

@fnej01

Sorry to hear it’s so recent, those first few days are just so weird.
I hated being told to test until it was negative. What a kick in the teeth.

We are all here together for you! 🐧

Hello ladies
Age 42
TTC #4
MC on 25th April , found out on 9th April baby had no heartbeat and had past about 9 weekS (about 2 weeks prior) Let baby come out naturally hence delay . I would totally recommend a natural MC as baby came out fully formed protected in sac and we got to appreciate how tiny they are! Such a blessing!

Cycle 2 post MC M, CD8 using digital OPK's and SMEP!
Good luck to all xx

Thanks for all your lovely messages. Feeling numb today as I'm still not bleeding. I think when that starts it will hit home. There was nothing on the scan so could I have already bled it out? But I've only been spotting surely I would have bled more than that. Has anyone been in the same position?

Sorry to the new joiners.......

Ttc no. 3
42 with 2 DC
Had loss last year at 14 weeks and a chemical this year in April....
Currently in the ttw and due to poas on poas Friday next week!
Also considering my TTC journey..... think I'm close to the end of the road..

Hi all.

32 years old, trying to conceive our first.
We're a same sex couple having medicated IUI.
Missed miscarriage in April of this year - baby had stopped developing at 6 weeks but didn't pass the pregnancy until medical management at 10 weeks. Then it took more than 6 weeks to get a negative pregnancy test (during which I had my first post miscarriage bleed, but the clinic wouldn't allow us to start a new cycle as my tests weren't negative and not enough time had elapsed). So we only started cycle 1 post miscarriage at the beginning of this week!

Another thread already?! Crazy!!

@littleemma1 exciting times! Hope the final week goes well and you have a fantastic wedding with a honeymoon baby thrown in for good measure.

Welcome to all the newbies, I'm sorry you find yourself here but you won't find a more supportive and incredible group anywhere!

@Sickenedbyguilt I had very little bleeding. About a spoonful a handful of times over a week. There was nothing on the scan apart from what they called "remnants". I was told it had been reabsorbed as they could see that it had formed rather than a blighted ovum. It took 3 months for hcg to drop back to 0 and another month to get my period. You may be in for a similar experience I'm afraid, though I hope you don't.

@sickenedbyguilt so sorry you find yourself here. It is a lovely supportive group though so hope you gain some comfort from it xxx

@littleemma1 woohoo!!! Have the best day!!
@Lovemysparkle how was your wedding??
@PassTheAfterEights are you still around hun? How are you?
@YellowDaffodils86 I use the BabyMad one. It was about £4 from amazon and works great.
@Ells0204 welcome to this lovely group and so sorry for your losses.
@fnej01 welcome and I'm so sorry for your loss. The first few weeks are the trickiest and waiting for the negative can be very tough. We are all here for you and you will get through this!
Fx for all those testing soon!

@Coffeist i like the roll call to see where people are in ttc and what they have experienced, you are not the only one but one i have just read. I just wanted to say 'hugs' two mc so close too, so unfair. Good luck for a healthy sticky bean. Xx
Goes for so many of you.

@Boboelephant @hellotoyellow i bought one from ebay today, it was purple, main reason i bought it lol. Will hopefully arrive Tuesday.

Thanks for the replies, I hope not hidcat we want to start tttcing asap. It's just horrible waiting for something that might not happen regarding the bleeding.
