TTC after MC - June 2020

[SmileyT]

I'm 31 TTC #1 after a MC in March this year, AF has just finished and I'm on CD6 and all ready to go for my 2nd full cycle.

This month I will be tracking with opks, CB connected, BBT and following SMEP plan.

I’m hoping I get my peak later today a like last month where it went from
Negative to positive in the same day lol DTD is tiring 😂

@VP91x tbh I'm not a big symptom spotter and don't think I feel any different but I'm also not sure I did the month I was pregnant as I wore a pad basically the whole week I was due on convinced it was coming 😂 I'm not sure I even get AF symptoms until about the day before so it's just a waiting game. We'll just think this time next week you could be in your TWW so fertile period will definitely be starting this week 👌🏾

@peonyrose87 and @2020wish looks like you'll both be joining us in TWW next week so not long until you'll both be testing aswell and looking like both of your cycles are pretty regular xx

@MichT4 how are you feeling in yourself? xx

@HE88 yay to being in the TWW xx

The waiting is the worst part. It feels like every month is about 60 days long! I don’t want to test on 20th as I tested on the day I was due last time and then miscarried a week after. So I’m going to try and hold off. Of course if AF comes then I don’t need to test 🙁

@SmileyT yeah I don't think I get any AF symptoms until the day where I get that lower backache that's really dull. I was looking back at both times I have been PG and I tested with them both the day AF would have due or day after. Trying to remember why I was prompted to test because I never used to really track much. Suppose its irrelevant now!

@chloedancer897 the waiting really is the worst!

Hey everyone. Been really quiet, sorry for not commenting much but I read this thread every day and always come away feeling so much better. Some incredible women on here, sending love to you all and thanks for sharing all that you're going through. It's no easy journey and my heart just goes out to you all.
I have just been dealing with a bit of delayed grief this week and also keeping my head down in my first TWW since my miscarriage. Never got a full peak on my OPK but I didn't the last time I got pregnant so I could have missed it.
@smileyT I'm due AF next weekend too, that's if my cycle has regulated to some extent. Am so torn about testing.. I badly want to test this week but I also don't want to put myself through it🙈 I know the chances are slim first cycle post miscarriage but there's always part of you that hopes beyond hope isn't there!!

@1990EM so sorry that you have been having a tough week, sending you lots of love ❤️

Definitely always have to keep the faith and that hope will see you through the toughest days. I have seen alot that Fertility can have a boost post-Mc so it is so so possible. Test whenever you feel comfortable! Xx

Yay I think I will get my peak tonight or tomorrow! Tests are getting darker from 0 this morning. Last month I didn’t ovulate til very late CD19. So I’m glad my cycle has normalised this month and looks like I will ovulate CD14/15

@1990EM sorry your feeling low. It’s ok to take time for yourself what CD are you on now x

@1990EM sorry you have been feeling a bit down. Fingers crossed you get that bfp soon 😊. Xx

@2020wish oh I hope you get that peak soon 😁. Xx

Please talk some sense into me...

I’m 6dpo today and have been feeling so sick and unwell all day - like a hangover but haven’t been drinking. I’ve also got so much clear discharge that I’ve had to change my jeans. I’m trying not to get my hopes up but this is how I felt at about 6 weeks with my twin pregnancy...
Has anyone experienced really early symptoms and then gone on to a BFP?

@2020wish that definitely looks promising!!

@Chickoletta hi yes I had symptoms early, had bumps on my nipples, really thirsty and felt sick from around 6dpo I got a bfp on 8dpo and now I’m nearly 8 weeks pregnant so hopefully fingers crossed it sounds positive fingers crossed for you xxx

@Chickoletta I'm also 6/7 dpo - not been testing this month so not 100% sure. I've been feeling very nauseous & have had the craziest heartburn 😩

@peonyrose87 glad to hear your body is back to normal and that sounds like a lot of DTD 👏
Sorry to hear you're struggling @1990EM and I totally understand how you feel, you feel so hopeful and almost like you deserve to get pregnant easily after having suffered a MC.

@Chickoletta that does sound like a good sign to me. I try not to symptom spot (and usually fail) but changing your jeans is quite a big one! I've never had symptoms until I was about 6 weeks though. Actually last pregnancy my vagina looked a bit weird before AF was due, sorry TMI 😳

Thanks everyone. Will just keep fingers crossed tightly for us all.

@elliew818 - I’m not sure there’s such a thing as TMI on this thread is there?!

@2020wish ahh brilliant news that you're getting your peak much earlier, I hope I follow suit! Enjoy getting down and dirty 💦🤣

@elliew818 haha that made me giggle - definitely not TMI. I don't think I ever looked down there when I was PG but I've seen loads of threads where women have noticed changes!

@Chickoletta that's crazy you're getting so much. I would take that as a great sign for sure!

@Tink20058 how are you getting on?

@MichT4 it was sooooo stressful trying to dtd back at my parents lol! We discovered we are definitely not the type of oeople who enjoy the thrill of potentially getting caught!! 🤞🏻 being in the new house takes away some of the stress and makes us more successful in the trc journey!

@1990EM I'll be testing on Wednesday or Thursday, I tested a couple days early last month and saw my first ever BFN and I actually found it quite calming as I was 12dpo there was no line and I could stop guessing, but do what feels right for you and feel free to vent whenever you feel like it on here x

@Chickoletta and @Niisa sounds promising to me🤞

Hi Ladies,

Please may I join. 7 days dpo and I’m feeling scared to death. Feels like a huge leap of faith to be trying again after losing our boy when I was 17 weeks pregnant in March.

@MissyBate so sorry for your loss ❤️💔 it's scary and hard starting to try again, but we're all here for support!

Welcome @MissyBate and so sorry for your loss ❤️ hope this is a lucky month for you and you get your rainbow baby xx

Hi @MissyBate welcome to the thread, sorry for your loss, I hope you find this group supportive and you get your bfp soon. Xx

@VP91x yes I did buy some. They are arriving tomorrow from amazon so I think I’ll start testing pretty much straight away as Ava has me ovulating on Wednesday

@SmileyT at the moment I feel quite positive. I feel like this month is our month. I am unsure with the different ovulation dates but hopefully can make some sense of it. Me and OH are enjoying lots of DTD anyway.

I saw my family today, including my pregnant sister. She was really great - she bought me the second test in her 2 pack of tests. So hopefully that’s good luck
But she made some comments about having a baby etc and being pregnant and it made me feel quite sad.

I just hate the waiting. Just wish we could know if it’s going to happen

@Chickoletta sounds very positive to me. When are you testing? Xx

@MissyBate so sorry to hear about your loss & praying this month is your month 💕

@SmileyT I have EVERYTHING crossed for you this week. I'm gonna be testing (early) on the 15th as I'll be around 14 dpo but app has AF down as coming on the 19th as that be CD29 so we'll see 🤷🏾‍♀️

Nausea & heartburn are currently keeping me up 😭

Af arrived for me at 2am this morning so I'm back to CD1. This is the first time since MMC in feb that I haven't spotted before AF so I now feel that my cycles are back to normal at last. So far the Ava is good I didn't realise how out my temping was so hoping this helps and this will be my month, here's hoping for a lot of BFPs this month xx
