TTC after MC - November 2020 (Thread 15)

[VP91x]

Hi All,

Please tag anyone from the old thread 🥰🥰

And anyone else who would like to join please do xx

@bez91 @PumpkinEverything good to see you both here. I'm in same position waiting for a negative test (taking another tomorrow). Bleeding seems to have stopped today (2 weeks post surgery) but who knows if itll stay stopped. My apps both took the day after surgery as CD1 as I logged bleeding. To be honest I suspect the first cycle will be junk data for the apps! They dont seem to have a post MMC settinf!

@susiebluebell it’s not a nice feeling. Thanks for your sweet messages. Going home now to hug my son and have a gin and tonic! I know it’s Monday but hey.

Where are you at with everything? X

@TheDaydreamBelievers seems so hard to tell. Sometimes I think mine has stopped and then I move too much and it’s there again, or only when wiping.
Which apps are you using? I’ve found the lack of MC function annoying too. Although my Premom app has updated since when I was using it before for TTC and in the bleeding section has an option for miscarriage bleeding, which is good in a weird way. My other apps (Ovia and Flo) don’t seem to let me mark this down though

@PumpkinEverything @TheDaydreamBelievers I've found this annoying too with no reference to MC - I'm using Ovia

@RichmondLady1981 hope you’re treating yourself kindly lovely, it’s a tough time 💫

I’ve just had my appt with gynae and my results came back all fine in terms of getting pregnant...in terms of staying pregnant, they’re going to prescribe progesterone, 5mg folic acid & 150mg aspirin. I am currently one very happy lady 💓💫

@RichmondLady1981 don’t count yourself out yet. I didn’t get a squinter until 14dpo. Fingers crossed

@Mumsdaily fingers crossed for some progression x

@RichmondLady1981 sorry to hear you had a BFN. It’s so disheartening. But fingers crossed for you that maybe it is just too early. X
@susiebluebell hope this cycle is a lot shorter for you if AF does appear but hopefully not for a good reason 🤞x

@RichmondLady1981 sorry to read about your bfn - it’s never a great feeling :( Be kind to yourself - and enjoy your gin!! I could do with a couple myself..I definitely did not have my ducks all in a row at school today - they were flying about all over the place! I swear they’d all had sugar for breakfast!

Hi ladies.
I’ve just had a BFN after my MMC its taken about 2.5 weeks to get here. I was certain I had passed the tissue when I did, so this test was just a formality.

On the other hand... I feel like I am already pregnant only because of my symptoms. I know I’m hopeful and so could just be overthinking, but if I am right, this would be my third pregnancy (unfortunately no children). AF is supposedly due just before xmas, but I dont plan on doing a pregnancy test until the new year and thats if AF doesn’t arrive.

My dreaded TWW is more like 4WW!

Has anyone else felt like this before?

So sorry @RichmondLady1981 it's never a nice feeling and down right painful. A gin and a hug sound just 👍.

I couldn't sleep!! 🙈🙈 got up early and did another test. It's definitely a little darker yesterday's line. I'm still only 8/9dpo, so going to test every day to see what happens. Just hoping this goes the way we want. Don't feel comfortable getting excited just yet.

Hopefully we get a strong line and make it all the way 🤷‍♀️

Pic attached.

Further to the post below, these are a bit clearer?!

@Mumsdaily - that is deffo deffo a line. Many congrats - really pleased for you!

I am now 10/11 DPO today - but too scared to test.

Have had cramps since Sunday, which are a little early for AF due on Friday (but perhaps a short LP phase as hormones sort themselves out) and a hot flush on Sunday which I get when P - but boobs don't hurt like they normally do. So I think it unlikely for me - temps are still high though so we will see!

Xx

@Mumsdaily amazing news. Huge congratulations

Ahhh thanks ladies but AF showed last night.

Have had loads of blood work done this month and have my appointment with the specialist on Friday; so I’m glad that’s coming. I know she’ll give me some hope. We are going away to a lovely place by the sea for over new year which falls on my FW so that’s a nice coincidence. Hopefully we will relax more whilst there and not at work.

Will be keeping an eye on the thread over rather next two weeks. Good luck everyone. 💋

I can definitely see a line @Mumsdaily!

Congratulations @Mumsdaily ! 😁. I am 11dpo today and my 9dpo frer was similar to yours 🤞🏻

Thanks everyone!!!

I still really want to see a dark line. I'll be testing tomorrow and the next day and the next....then I'll probably remortgage the house for eve more FRER's!! 🙈😂

I think it's going to be hard to feel excited. After an MC I think it's tainted with a bit of worry!

I'm a little gobsmacked it's happened again so soon! I didn't really expect it. X

Just did a test, a week on from having surgical management and it’s still very positive 😔 the line came up straight away when I was hoping it would at least be a faded one, but no. Definitely no point testing again for at least another week going by how dark the line is 😩

Just to let you ladies know , my pregnancy ended in a loss 1 week following a positive test. Do you know if its classed as a chemical at this stage? I am disappointed but we shall try again. I have had 2 know 14 weeks & 5 weeks and worried I have fibroids or something courtesy of google!! I dont think doc will refer me for a scan until I have had 3 mc's but found somewhere privately that does a well woman scan , il see how I get on. Hope your all ok xxx

@NI101 @PumpkinEverything it is hard waiting so long for a negative after the MC; it has so many emotions attached to it waiting for that negative, so it is hard that it can take so long for it to come. Please don’t worry that it takes so long - although physically everything has passed, it takes a while for the hormones to pass. It’s a really difficult time and I know that there’s not much reassurance in anything. However, please be reassured that it’s certainly not unusual for it to take so long to reduce and to get a negative. 🤍🤍🤍

Morning @MgW1 I am so sorry to hear this, that must be very tough for you lovely. I am unsure lovely at what point it’s classed as chemical, but even if it is a chemical, a chemical is still classed as a loss, so please don’t think anything less of it. It can be very difficult experiencing more than one loss and it does make you wonder about a lot of ‘what ifs’. Try to stay positive and read lots of success stories, as there are many many many and you will soon be one of those my lovely 🤍🤍🤍

Thanks @HappyVibes I suppose that’s why they tell you to wait longer to test, I just thought I would check this morning. Really hoping that it’s a lot more faded or negative next week 😔 I wish my hormones would sort themselves out, my skin is a mess!

@NI101 can I ask if you started trying before getting a negative test? I wasn’t sure whether I had to wait until I got a negative first

Sorry to hear about that @MgW1 I always wondered this too, and I think from what I can gather 5 weeks or less is classed as a chemical, but as happyvibes has said, it’s still a loss and completely okay to feel sad about.

Whenever you had scans previously did they look around the surrounding area? I had a private scan at 6 weeks and they spotted a fibroid, which I then mentioned at my next scan and they didn’t say much about it, so hoping it’s not a big deal. It does make me think that they maybe look at this sort of thing so try not to get too worried about it 😊

@HappyVibes
Thank you so much. I know its so common , I wished I had waited longer to test because I have read that early losses are common. Xxx

@RichmondLady1981 sending you lots of love and empathy lovely. Be kind to yourself, enjoy the festive period and then ready to start 2021 with a fresh new perspective and optimism 💫 🤍
