@Lollol86 oh, that's so so nice. She will love that when she is older 🥰. Yeah definitely, she loves a sticker so I think it may do the trick! X

Hi I hope you don’t mind me jumping on this thread as I’m looking for people who know what I’m going through and someone pointed me towards this thread. I miscarried my first Pregnancy in may and had my first af 4/5 weeks later. The next cycle (this one) we dtd a couple of times around ovulation after that I had so many pregnancy symptoms and dared to hope I might have caught again first time. Af showed up today and it’s really knocked me. Feel a bit like it’s all happening again (it really reminded me of the start of my miscarriage the brown spotting the backache and mild cramps), I got very upset. We conceived 1st time with the pregnancy that resulted in miscarriage and I dared to hope this time around might happen again. Tbh I’d rather it take time and have it stick but I didn’t quite expect to feel this disappointed and hopeless afterwards especially since the symptoms I had were so close to my symptoms weeks into my pregnancy. Feel like my bodies playing cruel tricks on me now. Anyway sorry for the long post I just hope to find people that relate to what this feels like x

Lollol86 · 20/07/2020 22:49

@Will867 welcome and sorry for your loss. We all understand what you are going through and it's a really tough time. This group is amazing. Our bodies and minds certainly like to play tricks on us x

VP91x · 20/07/2020 22:52

Sorry ladies I have another TMI pic. I've just had this, had a wee about an hour ago and nothing was there. Just wiped after needing another wee, and had this! I've wiped a few more times now and it seems that might be all of it... 😐 Xx

Northernsoul90 · 20/07/2020 22:55

@VP91x Could it be UTI related do you think? I have had cystitis in the past where I have passed blood in my wee? Just a thought if you have a slight urine infection or irritation down there? Xx

VP91x · 20/07/2020 22:58

@Will867 I'm so sorry you've suffered a loss recently, completely understand how you feel. Every month has been a roller-coaster of emotions and its so sad to see a negative after a month of trying. But stick with us on the group, so much support here to see you through your cycle and hopefully this next one will be successful for you ❤️

OP posts:
Northernsoul90 · 20/07/2020 22:58

Welcome @Will867 so sorry for your loss, I messaged you earlier I think on your other post I'm glad you posted over here 😊 xxx

VP91x · 20/07/2020 23:00

@Northernsoul90 it came internally, as I checked quickly because I thought maybe the same. Didn't want to irritate anything inside. The UTI symptoms seem to not be as bad as earlier. So odd! Xx

OP posts:
Will867 · 20/07/2020 23:01

Thank you all for being so welcoming and although hate the circumstances am grateful there is a safe place to share my feelings. Thank you @Northernsoul90 for directing me here I really appreciate it x

Lollol86 · 20/07/2020 23:04

@VP91x just googled and came up with this so could well be linked to uti, I would contact your go tomorrow.

Sorry should say gp

Northernsoul90 · 20/07/2020 23:06

@VP91x ahh right hmm could possibly be implantation related then hopefully? 🙏🏼 other than that I'm not sure... how strange that the symptoms have subsided a bit. That's good though hopefully they will be gone by morning!

@Will867 Definitely a safe space here. I'm sure you will find lots of support and encouragement 😊 fingers crossed for next cycle 🤞🏼are you tracking ovulation at all? xx

VP91x · 20/07/2020 23:06

@Lollol86 yeah definitely going to ring in the morning I think! Xx

OP posts:
Lollol86 · 20/07/2020 23:12

@VP91x yes I would and just explain you have had symptoms of a UTI, hopefully they will just get you to do a urine sample xx

VP91x · 20/07/2020 23:17

@Lollol86 thank you 🥰xx

@Northernsoul90 yeh been using cheapy opks from Amazon and kind of tracking cm like I started doing month before miscarriage. This time got a peak Lh on the 7th of July which was cd 15, this cycle seems to have been shorter than usual though my cycle after mc 33 days this time was only a 27 day cycle, period only came 11-12 dpo. Don’t know if it’s because my cycles are slightly messed up since mc. I hadn’t really tracked much before miscarriage Only tracked a month before we started trying, though I did think my cycles were usually about 30 days.

fafi · 20/07/2020 23:49

@NadJade congratulations!! So pleased for you ✨

@Will867 sorry for your loss hun, you're in good company here

@Jodiem1990 the @names don't come up for me either. I tend to write my messages in my notes as I read through the thread and then post it when I've caught up! Then I can copy the names as I see them and keep track work my replies. I hope that helps! You can also 'flip' the chats to see the most recent post first but bookmarks work well too. So sorry to hear about your losses, sounds like a scary time! Glad you've caught again so soon tho! Hoping for a healthy pregnancy for you x

Pugprincess · 21/07/2020 03:45

@Will867 hello and welcome. Sorry to hear about your loss 😔 I haven’t had my first period post mc yet but I can imagine it will cause PTSD type feelings and remind of mc with pain, blood flow and I think having to wear pads when I’m used to tampons too as I don’t normally feel it all ‘coming out’. I think with any ttc cycle it’s a lottery and I’m sure I read even if everything is perfectly timed there’s something like a 25% chance of successful conception. I don’t know why Mother Nature made it so hard for us. Seems cruel we only get 12 chances in a whole year and that’s only if you have regular cycles 😩 Makes time drag doesn’t it? And like the other ladies have said in previous posts it can make you wish time away. Sounds like you are doing the right things though. We are now attempting the every other day method rather than just timing for ovulation to keep sperm healthy and regular, if I get a peak on opk will do every day till peaks gone. I’ve transformed my diet too try and boost things along which is giving me a new focus so maybe you could try that if it’s something that you feel could help- you might be super healthy already- I just know I was junk food beige warm up in the oven and barely any veg diet. I’ve cut out caffeine and extra sugar. Swapped white bread rice and spaghetti to brown. Making smoothies and getting my 5 a day.

Guys question to all-I checked co op yesterday for pomegranate juice and they didn’t sell it. Where are you guys buying yours from? X

Rainbowhope11 · 21/07/2020 04:51

@VP91x hope you're feeling okay and you get to the bottom of the weird bleeding! Xx

Ladies, I took the Provera this morning so that I can start the process of inducing a period. Unfortunately I had a bad skin reaction to it and I can't continue with it 😫 I'm now at my wits end. I've made an appointment with a fertility clinic to get an understanding of my irregular cycles post MC as I just don't feel like my current Obgyn is invested in helping me regulate my cycles.

Has anyone had any success with the Ava bracelet or anything else? I'm getting desperate now 😫

Rainbowhope11 · 21/07/2020 04:52

Also @VP91x I'm keeping my fingers crossed that maybe your bleeding was implantation bleeding!

VP91x · 21/07/2020 05:27

@Pugprincess I get it from Tesco, the actual brand is called POM. It is about £3.70 a bottle - expensive stuff!

@Rainbowhope11 oh no! I'm so sorry you had a reaction to it, was it really bad? Could they give you anything else to induce your period? I'm really sorry it didn't work 😩😩

Thank you lovely 🥰🥰

Ladies, had a big temp drop again today, below cover line so this is all just a bit confusing still 😔 xx

Jodiem1990 · 21/07/2020 07:21

@vp91 please ring up today and just get checked xxx

Thanks @fafi it's this bloody app I can't even save messages lol

I am so sorry to here about everyone's losses...Please don't lose hope tho.

Finding out I was pregnant again yesterday was a complete shock and I don't even feel happy because I feel like something is going to go wrong again anyways...It's just the most surreal feeling because I have pain in my left side ( like I did when I had the etopic) but there is no tube there so how is this even possible??

Xxx

Jodiem1990 · 21/07/2020 07:24

@tink20054 WOW that is so amazing congratulations hun ...I wish you lots of health in this pregnancy that is such lovely news.. sounds like we both got pregnant straight away then xxx
