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 ❤️

@AlviesMam would your doctor test your blood for rising HCG for your peace of mind?

I think that's a lovely line, @AlviesMam.

Definitely stronger than the one on Sunday.

If I were you, I'd speak to my gp about getting some blood tests done to ensure hcg is doubling. That would be more accurate than the tests, and might help put your mind at rest

Yes I'm going to ring doctors.

Do you think I have a chance of this being good news ? :(

Can hcg levels rise slow? It's darker than clear blue (another pic attactched)

I honestly don't know what to think :( x

Alvies due date was today. Lost him at 22 weeks.
I don't need this today but yet again I'm worrying ! :(

Yes, absolutely @AlviesMam, every chance of good news.

I think the key is for hcg to double every 2-3 days, which you can only know from blood tests.

Have a chat with your gp, they'll be able to reassure you more than we will on here, and might even offer you an early scan given your history.

@FireflyGirl thanks you- your so positive. Xx

@AlviesMam that line looks strong to me!
But def get bloods done at doc for peace of mind if ur worried still.
Big hugs today on Alvies due date. Xx

@Leok83 u really think it looks strong?! I'm really overthinking. It is possible I ovulated late as I know after a loss cycles can go funny. I just hope I can get an appointment quick. Xx

Ya I def do think it’s strong..some of the tests I’m really squinting to see but that’s just a blazing obvious! Hopefully the doc can fit you in fast. But try not to worry in the mean time (I know easier said than done!). Xx

Is it possible to ovulate on day 20? X

I only ovulate on day 20 with a 34 day cycle

@AlviesMam it’s def possible to ov day 20..and as you said after MC cycles can be a bit messed up anyways.

@AlviesMam since my MC I ovulated on day 23!!! Could just be late ovulation and prolonged cycle but the frer looks good.

Hugs for you today ❣️ @AlviesMam. I'll be thinking of you and your beautiful boy 💙

Hope you're taking care of yourself. Have you anything planned?

Hey guys so I redid the tests I did yesterday morning as adviced and have 2 darker line still faint but darker then yesterday do I dare believe that I actually did it. That's 3 positives 2 faint positive line and a digital confirmation.....eek thank you so much for your support ladies not had AF since mc so ain't got a clue how far I am but has been so nice past fee weeks on here xxx now waiting game starts to see if it's a sticky one..please pray for me I will be praying for all you ladies to have your happy endings xx so nervous xx p.s have also told hubby feel much better after I did x

@alviesmam what a tough day for you, sending love ❤️ that positive looks so good 🎉 xx

@lbaadsmummy that’s great news! Congrats!!

Congratulations @Ibaadsmummy, everything crossed it's a sticky one 🤞

Glad you managed to speak to your DH - he was probably worried about you as well!

Congratulations to everyone with bfp's x
I'm out this month, AF arrived yesterday, 2 days late.

All these positives are making me cry!
I'm such an emotional wreck when I let it all get into my brain.
Congratulations you gorgeous women, you're giving us all hope it can happen! So happy for you all 💞
I'm d10po now and trying not to symptom spot but being woken up with huge sore boobs and cramps again. Just got to wait for that positive and if it sticks. Even if its positive, I can't let myself think too hard. My stepson is home over Easter so would be 10 weeks and think we would release the news then to close family. Not that I'm thinking about it 🤦🏻‍♀️

@sweetpeaormarigold I constantly think "oh if we catch this cycle then we can tell BIL when we see them in XX day" 🙈🙈 haha!

@alviesmam thinking of you and precious Alvie today xx

Hi lovelies,

Just had some bleeding which is making me assume the worst.

I feel like this process is breaking my heart.💔😥

@StephyRose awwww god 😔😔😔 sending lots of hugs and strength- have you just tested and the lines faded?

This process is heartbreaking. I've had a faint line for a few days I just don't know what to think xxxxx

@StephyRose I'm sure I seen a test pic...I it's gone 🤷🏼‍♀️ x

@StephyRose light pink blood can be normal... can you go and get checked out for peace of mind xxx
