Catching up - ttc after miscarriage part 3

[Annny27]

Setting up this new thread for all the lovely ladies who have been on the ttc after miscarriage journey. And also all the ladies who have had their bfps but still want to stay in touch:)

Will post this in the existing chat :D

@Leok83 aww that's sweet. I understand your DH. I am sure he wants to be excited but probably cautious as you say....
I am sure as the weeks go by and you guys have some reassurance scans you can both fully embrace that amazing news and get properly excited for what's coming!

My cm was more watery tonight but that could just be me imagining 🙄
I will do another opk tomorrow... we wiĺl see.

CD15 for me today and just started showing that second line on my OPKs. Will start doing 2 a day as it starts getting stronger.

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend 😊

@Nuggetlover27 same here. We are cycle buddies!!
Except i am CD16
Such a sloooow rise this month.
Normally i peak on cd16. Late ovulation for me
Definitely had my fertile watery mucus last night... it was flowing out by itself (massive tmi) 😅😅

But this opk isn't co-operative

Let's see.

Ok so i am also CD15 not 16. So we will see maybe tomorrow my body will wake up

Fingers crossed for ovulation soon for both of you! @sunnysideup2020 @nuggetlover27

I am 8dpo today nothing symptom wide apart from usual tww symptoms! But fingers crossed :)

@leok83 have you tested again?

How's everyone else doing?

@Nuggetlover27 @SunnySideUp2020 I’m a few days behind you, did a sneaky opk tonight as I couldn’t help myself! CD9 today, I’ve got EWCM but had a weeks worth last month and OV’d CD 16 so expecting the same!
Fingers crossed for you @Annny27 🤞🏻🤞🏻
How are you doing @ELM7?

Meant to add x

@scrumdiddly123 a few days behind but your opks are already nice and clear! You will prob ovulate before me.
But we are close cycle buddies with you and nugget!

Fingers crossed one of us gets a good news at the end of the month!!

@Annny27 wiĺl you test tomorrow?

@scrumdiddly123 yep I had 5 days of ewcm this month as well haha!

@sunnysideup2020 not tomorrow but I will test on Monday morning (10dpo) because I have a dentist appointment so want to be able to tell her if I am pregnant so that its safe etc. Still early so might be bfn even if I am pregnant as my line at 12dpo when I got my bfp was pretty faint!

wise decision!
I think Leok was an extraordinary early clear positive but most likely at 9 dpo is not gonna be your final answer...🤞🌈

What i mean is most of ladies get bfn early but later get their bfp!

Yeah her line was amazing for 9 and 10dpo!!! @SunnySideUp2020

I like the countdown to pregnancy site that tells you how many women who were pregnant got false bins at each dpo :)

@scrumdiddly123 CD11 here and OPK are very faint but better than being blank.

Trying for positive thinking this month with the mantra of it will be our month for a BFP! But this cycle is going so slowly already so am dreading the TWW feel it’s really going to drag

Oh @Annny27 really hope you are our next BFP in the group.

Morning everyone 😄

@Leok83 ah that's lovely! I do get the cautiousness tho. We've already accepted that any future pregnancy is going to be slightly tainted with anxiety and we've lost the nativity of being able to just be excited which I actually feel quite bitter about! I'm sure as time goes on he will get there.

@SunnySideUp2020 I hope ovulation isn't too delayed for you! My opk's usually just suddenly go from being very negative to almost positive but that's normal for me.

@Annny27 good luck testing tomorrow! I really hope you get some good news. It feels like we all finally deserve it after how long we've been going through this now.

I'm just waiting for af to finally disappear and hoping and praying ovulation happens on time this month! I normally ovulate slightly later around CD18 so my acupuncturist has scheduled my next session with her for cd14 and I'm hoping that might make something happen a little sooner 🤞

I'm actually feeling quite chilled at the minute and excited to be able to start again! I can't believe it's almost a year since we last fell (sept). Where has the time gone?! It's quite sad and frustrating, sort of feels like everything has just been delayed by a year.

Ooh laddies @SunnySideUp2020 @scrumdiddly123 @ELM7 @Nuggetlover27 looks like hopefully ovulation very soon for you all!!

@Annny27 I've everything crossed for you for the next BFP on Monday!🤞🤞
I tested again yesterday and still looking strong!
Wanted to test this morning but was up peeing every couple of hours, I'm actually better at holding the pee during the day so I'll try and get one later today with a longer hold!

I'm scared to make it onto the graduate thread yet!!
Bottom one is yesterday's 11DPO.

@Fizzl ya it would be so nice to be able to enjoy an anxiety free pregnancy but none of us will get that now. I'm just trying to stay away from all the stuff like the apps that tell you what fruit size your baby is and that because I just want to try and take each day as it comes. Think it's the only way to keep anxiety controlled.
I'm glad ur feeling chilled this cycle and hopefully the accupuncture works it's wonders against getting you a nice early ovulation!

@Fizzl again sorry not against!! Bloody autocorrect!!

@Leok83 my bfp on 12dpo with my pregnancy in September looked like yours on 9dpo haha! So you must have implanted fairly early :D

I have 0 symptoms but I am always wishing and hoping!

@fizzl thank you! Tbh I wasn't exactly anxiety free in my first pregnancy anyway 🤣🤣 so maybe it will just be the same level for me

@ELM7 yea positive thoughts 💗💗

@Annny27 @Leok83 your 9dpo was miy 15 dpo... something must have been wrong then!!! Probs super low hcg from the start

My opk isnt much darker today 😔
I accepted that it will be a late ovulation anyway... we are definitely all kind of cycle buddies

@SunnySideUp2020 I've seen loads of faint lines at later dates go on to be successful pregnancies too though!
Your opk is definitely looking darker to me so hopefully things moving along.

@Annny27 ya I definitely must have implanted 8DPO or earlier. Sorry had forgot to answer earlier when you asked about the scan..ya I will definitely try get early scan. Checking out dates though and as my MMC was at 9 weeks (bean stopped at 8w5d) a scan before that won't put my mind at ease much but my colleague is off for 2 weeks at start of when I'd be 9 weeks and I'll be sole charge at work so definitely not a good time to get bad news. So because of this I think I'll prob get an 8 week scan and another 11 week scan as soon as she's back and then wait for the 12 week scan which may be a bit later than 12 from what I've read. Sorry that's a very long winded answer!!
The very best of luck for tomorrow ☘️ 🤞🤞

The picture I saw in Instagram is an accurate depiction of my symptom spotting :p

I really don't feel pregnant so arent expecting a bfp tomorrow although it will still be gutting to see a bfn! Realistically hopeful I will say

@SunnySideUp2020 are you testing multiple times a day now? Fingers crossed you peak soon. Waiting for ovulation is really exhausting and quite stressful i think!

@Leok83 I wrote a reply to you in the above message but it must have deleted itself! I said that I think your plan for scanning is good - do you have a private place near you that does them?

Agree with Anny. Good plan for the scan @Leok83

And thanks for saying the opk is darker 😁
Did another one tonight and was the same.
So still not peaking... maybe for Monday

Sending positive vibes to you @Annny27 fingers crossed🤞

@Fizzl hoping it's a light to peak situation lime yours! Otherwise at this pace i will be ovulating on CD20 😅
That being said after your confused uterus, i am preparing myself for the worst case 🙃

Sometimes i really wonder if we just want it TOO much that our body just won't do it 🙄

@Annny27 and @SunnySideUp2020 thanks, thought it might have sounded a bit full on looking for so many scans if I make it that far! there's a place close by alright which makes it very easy to organise, it's where I was scanned and found out about MMC so I'd say there'll be all sorts of anxiety going there again but it's worth it for the scan.
