TTC after miscarriage - February 2020

[TerribleImagination]

Hi to anyone reading 👋🏻

This is a thread for anyone TTC / testing in February, after a miscarriage.

I’ll start off with intros! I’m 37 and my first pregnancy ended in miscarriage at 5 1/2 weeks in December. I TTC straight afterwards, but AF found me, so here I still am on this crazy, frustrating, rollercoaster of a journey!

I joined the January thread after my miscarriage and it’s been amazing to go there and chat to other women who know how you feel.

So for anyone joining this, I’m so so sorry you find yourself here, but you’re in good company ❤️

AF is due today, I've had none of my usual pre af symptoms, I always get cramps 1-2 days before & a massive NEED for chocolate/cake/anything sugary .
Tested on 2 different IC this morning, both BFN.
I'm a little confused by my bbt chart, I got peak on OPK on cd9 but temp didn't start rising until cd14, I didn't test on cd10 for some reason but by cd11 it was low. I get ovulation can take upto 36 hours after a peak but that still seems quite a gap between temp rising?
Slightly hopeful that I ovulated later, making me less dpo then I think I am? Meaning i'm still in with a chance!

@kkr168 I find the fertility friends app chart bit easier to read than this one..though ur temp started to rise at CD12 from what I can see on this so that’d be ov on CD11. I hope af stays away and ICs just aren’t sensitive enough yet!

Sorry AF arrived @leok83 :(

I am 5dpo today and will technically be testing in march so I'll head over to the new thread but will still check on all the ladies on here :D

@Leok83 temp defo didn't go up till cd14, might be easier to see in this pic?
I have a frer but saving it, i'll use it monday if AF doesn't arrive.

Hi ladies, spanish clearblue has told me 2-3 weeks this morning. My dates are 4 weeks and 3 days, so guessing this is about right!

Starting to ever so slightly relax now, lines are getting a bit darker (not as dark as I'd expect, but still some progression)

Ill keep an eye on this thread and the March thread, to see how your getting on. Good luck in your ttc journeys, expecially to the original janauary thread ladies xx

Oops, posted too soon... Especially to the January ladies who have helped to keep me sane and been a real comfort over the last few months xx

@Leok83 would help if I attached the pic, oops

@BS9790 that's a relief 💗💗💗 hopefully we will all be joining you on the graduates thread soon!

Congratulations again xx

@kkr168 ah yes it’s the 11th of Feb on CD 13th not CD11 that it looks like you ov from that! Did you keep up the opk till then? I’d go for that date as ov rather than opk anyways. Hopefully the extra days bring ur BFP!

@Leok83 no I stopped testing on cd11 after getting low

@kkr168 ya I would have done the same..sometimes LH can fluctuate so poss may have gone up again cause CD 9 to ov on CD13 seems like a very big gap alright!

Guys how many days after a mc at 6 weeks did your period arrive much cycle is usually 25 days miscarriage but I know it probably wont be this time just wana know others experience so I can test similar time thank you

@B39790 congratulations

Sorry ment @BS9790

@lbaadsmummy I miscarried just before 6 weeks and I got my period on day 33 after the bleeding started and the sac was passed. My cycle is usually anything between 26 and 30 days (mostly around the 26 mark though), so that one was a little longer. The one after was a 30 day one as well. I’ve only ever had one or two 30 day cycles, so I definitely think the miscarriage has messed around with my cycles.

Sorry mostly around the 28 mark I meant to say!

@lbaadsmummy mine were every 24 days, 1st af after mc was a week late, so 31 days

Thank you girls for ur replys so I'm guessing mines gonna be a week later I'm itching to test now cos app is saying 1 day till period obviously from old cycles need to hold out another week

My cycles pre mc were 31-33 days, my period came 24 days after the start of my MC bleeding so mine was much shorter!!

@BS9790 Just been catching up with this thread... huge congratulations to you hun!! Nobody deserves it more than the ladies on this thread... Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy xxxxxxxx

@Leok83 sorry to hear AF has got you. Fingers crossed for next month.

@BS9790 was so glad to read your update

@BS9790 a massive congratulations.

@Ibaadsmummy my cycles are usually 29 days and I've just got my first af after mc and it came on cd37 so very late I tested twice and kept getting my hopes up, but it just wasn't to be this month for me fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼. Xx

@BS9790 congratulations! So good to see BFPs on the thread

Hi lovely ladies,

Hope everyone is doing well and congratulations on your BFP @BS9790!! 👏👏💐

I got a BFP on 15DPO on Tuesdays. Been scared out of my wits and so I wanted to get a few days along before posting.

My only worry this evening is I've had a teeny tiny amount of weird colour discharge. Please find photo attached but only look if you feel it isn't TMI.

Do you think it is anything to worry about. Literally petrified of any wetness or discharge. 😥

Congratulations @stephyrose - I get why you are worried but I dont think that is anything to worry about
