I think @lillg that it's as simple or complicated as you want to make it. Some people really thrive on lots of methods and tracking things down to the hour - it helps them NOT stress about it. Others (me haha) want to know in general but find the specifics too much hassle/stress. At the moment you've just gone through a huge loss which will take time to process and grieve, so I hope you're able to take time for that and be kind to yourself 💕 The rest will come xx

@elsimo

Wtf is seed cycling??
LOL it's eating different types of seeds at different times of your cycle xx
elsimo · 27/12/2020 19:47

Oh I see 🤣🤣

Just tagging myself in this new thread.

Currently on CD16 of my first cycle since the MC and waiting to see if there are any signs of ovulation. I’ve had 2 days of smiley faces on CB OPK but my cheaply LH tests are very much negative. Anyone else had this? I’m hoping in a few days or so I might get some kind of LH surge showing.

PumpkinEverything · 27/12/2020 20:49

Aw I’m so sad that’s how your Christmas turned out @M4v3r1ck how are you feeling now? Hoping it’s given you some sort of relief at least to have it (hopefully) done now.

Yeah @elsimo I saw it mentioned on another thread I was on when TTC and I genuinely thought it meant women put seeds up there for a few hours and then had to switch them up for different ones 😂😂😂😂

Evening ladies

Just came on here for a bit of comfort, I should have been 6 months pregnant now. My friend posted photos of her bump at Christmas (she was 1 week behind me) and omg it’s just so hard. I couldn’t look at the photos, but then I went back on them and felt so sad.

So many people told me to get back on it after my miscarriage but my periods are all over the place so I can’t. I’m currently a week late (but not pregnant) and begging my body to start my period already, so I can TTC again soon 🤞🏼

Anyway thanks for reading my evening rant x

elsimo · 27/12/2020 21:21

@PumpkinEverything oh that made me giggle!

Urghh I'm so fed up guys, still no period and not pregnant! I'm now 5 days late (4wks 5 days since surgical management) still getting some cramping here and there but no bloody period!

Xx

Hopefulmummie · 27/12/2020 22:14

Did anyone have a regular period after natural miscarriage? My period should be due next week if I'm counting 28 days after miscarriage bleeding? For the last week I've been getting faint lines on ovulation tests and took one today and was a dark line. Would I be ovulating this late?

PumpkinEverything · 27/12/2020 23:14

You could be @Hopefulmummie if your cycle is maybe just a bit different this month. Might have been a delay on it so maybe worth DTD if you’re wanting to, and keep testing to see if that’s your peak and it goes back down again.

MgW1 · 27/12/2020 23:24

@MsK89
Oh I can totally relate to this. My work colleague was a week behind me and she is now 27 weeks , she posts on Instagram, not seen much of her because she has been working from home , its tough isnt it 😔 I Mc in August xx

Hanbanxx · 27/12/2020 23:57

@Hopefulmummie I ovulated 25 days after my natural miscarriage xx

Hopefulmummie · 28/12/2020 00:19

@Hanbanxx did you period come on time or was that later too?x

MsK89 · 28/12/2020 06:41

Hey @MgW1 that’s the same month I had my miscarriage too. It does help in a strange way knowing your not the only one who feels that way. I hope you get your rainbow baby soon xx

bumpyrider · 28/12/2020 06:46

I took conception supplements it helped me lots when was trying.

Garman · 28/12/2020 07:49

@Hopefulmummie my period came on time 3 weeks after a natural miscarriage, I have short cycle.

elsimo · 28/12/2020 07:52

Got my period!! Hopefully this means i'm back on track now 🥳🥳

Hopefulmummie · 28/12/2020 09:26

I'm really cramp this morning not sure what's happening but period would be due on Thursday as 4 weeks after miscarriage though getting high ovulation test results. Who knows? Kinda wish at would come so everything back to normal

M4v3r1ck · 28/12/2020 10:18

@PumpkinEverything yes, it has! Hopefully get the all-clear or as good as on 30th! 😘

@RS2609 I find I need to be a wee bit dehydrated on the cheap LH tests to find my peak! I drink loads of water and that can dilute the results!

@MsK89 rant away, that's what we're here for! Don't feel pressured into TTC - do it when it feels right for you! 😘

@elsimo yay to AF!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 man, this must be the only time we cheer for the witch to appear!!! 😂

@Hopefulmummie that's super frustrating for you! I know our cycles can be really out of sync post-MC, so could the pain be ovulation pain if your tests are showing high? 🤔

Hope everyone else is doing well! 😃 Anyone else forgotten what day/week/year it is? 😂

Hopefulmummie · 28/12/2020 10:24

@m4v3r1ck I think it is ovulation pain. It's turned into really sharp pains and I've read that ovulation pains can be worse after miscarriage

Hanbanxx · 28/12/2020 10:48

@Hopefulmummie I only ovulated on Christmas Eve which was 25 days after my miscarriage. I am now in the two week wait and should be due my period on 7th January xx

susiebluebell · 28/12/2020 13:33

@Hopefulmummie Yes me, I got AF bang on time after miscarrying (I'm another August one.. 😕) But my cycles since then have varied by a few days. Hope you get some clarity! Xx

RichmondLady1981 · 28/12/2020 13:46

Hi all! Just marking my place. Had a break and it’s taken ages for me to catch up! Hope you all had a great Xmas x.

fingerscrossed1985 · 28/12/2020 16:57

Can I join too please? 4th cycle ttc since missed miscarriage at 12.5 weeks back in August.

Currently in the 2ww - could really do with some good news to kick start 2021!

Baby dust to all xx

HappyVibes · 28/12/2020 18:24
