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

@Fizzl I’d say just keep an eye for any new signs of ovulation and that you aren’t going into new cycle without a bleed as another forum i saw a lady that happened too and she did conceive on that cycle but It looked like one seriously long cycle as she had no bleed in between the anovulatory one and the next one.

@Leok83 oh gosh I'd better take out shares in opk's! That's interesting that she fell pregnant in that cycle, I'd assume your lining is a bit old and not in the best shape to conceive (but that's based on nothing just my worries that my lining will be old and useless by that point!)

Ya and she’s doing well cause she was in the chat from a due in August group, and I’ve kept an eye on the chat until recently and everything going good on her scans etc.
I suppose you could try keep an eye on CM and if any inkling of change on that then start opk?

Morning, my temp has finally spiked this morning so think I did ovulate! Reckon I’m 2dpo so looking forward to the 2 week wait in a weird way! Symptom spotting will give me something to do 😬
Anyone else in the 2WW?
@Fizzl really hope AF comes soon!
@SunnySideUp2020 how are you? Any more spotting?

@scrumdiddly123 me! I'm 5dpo on cd29 and no idea when to expect AF due to average cycle since mc being 25 days.

@Ejb86 similar to me then, I’m CD30 which is my normal cycle length. My normal LP is 12 days so will be expecting AF CD 41! It’s been a long month!

@scrumdiddly123 my average lp has been 6 days since MC, so if I get past tomorrow it's a bonus. I'd love to have a longer cycle and a longer lp, suggesting everything is finally starting to get back to normality.

@scrumdiddly123 I’m joining you in the TWW also at 2dpo. It’s the second week that I always find sooooooooo long 😂

@Leok83 that's good to hear! Yeah I'm getting fed up of peeing on sticks but afraid I'm going to miss something! But I think I might have to start waiting for some tell tale signs now otherwise I could be peeing on them forever at this rate 🙄

@scrumdiddly123 @ELM7 @Ejb86 glad you all got there in the end! I'm feeling very envious over here!

I thought af might be starting today I had the usual cramps for an hour or so but nope, nothing and now no cramps! I've never ever missed a period before. I might have had anovulatory cycles before and not realised before ttc but I've always had a period each month so I'm hoping that's the case this month too!

@scrumdiddly123 doing ok thanks!
No more spotting. Dtd today and everything was ok.
Hpt negative ofc.

@Ejb86

Waiting for AF on Wednesday.

Glad to hear you are finally in the tww!!!

@Fizzl i am sorry it's still not happening with your opks. I would be crazy by now!!!

@ejb have you got any symptoms?

Hey ladies I've started tracking my cycle with IC as I'm now on CD11 so hopefully will be ovulating next week and other cycle buddies!?

Today I threw away my pregnancy test from when I tested positive for the previous pregnancy (the MC) am I weird for having a little cry when throwing them away? Just figured I needed to get it out of my head before TTC next week 😭

@Mococo1 I only threw my tests away last week from my MMC in February before that I couldn't bring myself to do it.
The hospital gave me a scan of the baby in a lovely card with a poem on it so I have written a message inside it and I like to look at it every so often which helps x

@Mococo1 no not weird. I've still not thrown mine away from October 😳 there's no right or wrong way of dealing with it I don't think. Don't get me wrong I never look at them. There hidden away and it's pointless me having them I just can't bring myself to throw them. But at the opposite end of the spectrum I never collected my scan photo as I couldn't bear the thought of having it and didn't want the reminder 🤷🏼‍♀️.

I don't think being in the mindset of having a fresh start is a bad thing in this situation.

Morning ladies :) cd7 so will be starting to dtd soon haha

@SunnySideUp2020 hope this doesn't upset you but I had a dream I logged on and you had posted a bfp! Can't wait for when that happens for you in real life :)

@Mococo1 @Dipsy77 i still have mine from my November miscarriage! I couldn't bear to throw them out - they are in a special box with her scan photo 💗

@fizzl thats interesting that someone said that another lady has an anovulatory cycle, no period and then conceived that cycle! Keep on with the opks!

@Leok83 we may be cycle buddies again this month depending on when I ovulate!

@ELM7 good luck for the tww, I usually get crazy around 7dpo haha. And hopefully your period is still staying away @ejb86

@scrumdiddly123 and HOORAY that your temps finally show you have ovulate! A bloody long month of dtd haha

@Annny27 she's still away! Cd31, 7dpo.

@SunnySideUp2020 no symptoms really. Lb still breast feeds at night and he's started waking up for milk at around 4am and drinking for what feels like forever. Has happened the past two mornings. Wondering if I'm pregnant and the milk has changed already. Really don't want to get my hopes up and have them dashed though.

The tww is so long!!!!! Especially when in used to having a 5 day wait! Ha

@ejb86 thats interesting about your son and your breastmilk. Hopefully this is your month!!!

@dipsy77*@Annny27 @fizzl* thanks this has made me feel so much more normal. Just figured it would help trying to focus on what is going to be rather than what could have been 🙂I have other little bits to remember the pregnancy by but felt a bit stuck in the past!

@Mococo1 i did it when i moved and i had the same mindset as you. Wanting to move forward and focus on what will (hopefully be).
Tbh it was always making me sad to see these tests. So it was a little bit of a relief when i finally had to do it.

@Ejb86 i saw that the milk could change its taste when pregnant on some thread here so i really hope this is it!!!! 🌈

@Annny27 that's so sweet to tell me! It made me smile! I think tomo you will log on and see that AF got me but i am hoping one day soon-ish 🙏🙃

@Ejb86 that’s interesting about the BM, really hope it’s a positive sign for you!!

@Annny27 ya I’d say we could end up being close, my most normal iv has been CD16 but changes a bit so will wait and see what this cycle brings! Prob start POAS at the weekend.

Had my bloods done yesterday so just waiting on results. Have been referred to gynae now but not sure how long that will take, never asked so not sure if will be weeks/months. I’ve no patience so hopefully sooner rather than later!

Morning!
@Ejb86 @ELM7 how are you? Any symptoms yet?
@SunnySideUp2020 is it today you’re expecting AF?
Thanks @Annny27 it certainly was a long wait!
I wondered if anyone could take a look at my chart and see what you think? FF has finally charted my ovulation day, says I’m 6dpo when I thought I was 4. Why has my temp dipped twice sine OV? And why are most of my before temps above the cover line?! It all looks a mess to me and can’t make sense of it!

@scrumdiddly123 not really, was a bit queasy yesterday, but that could have been the marzipan I ate! I'm a bit spotty and haven't had any spots at all since before lockdown. LB still having long milk sessions on a morning.

I'm not very good with temping so not much help I'm afraid.

@scrumdiddly123
Yes was expected today

And here she is since this morning!!

My analysis have come back from the swab last week and i have the same infection as DP something called urea plasma or something. So we started our antibiotics today. Two weeks of doxycicline.

Onto month 6...

Also they think that this bacteria could cause MC so they want us to clear it before ttc
