🦕🦕 The dinosaur crew - part 8 ttc after mc 🦕🦕

[Annny27]

Hi ladies,

You know the drill after this long haha! All of us ladies are ttc after miscarriage (whether that's MMC, MC, TFMR, ectopic or CP)

I will tag people in next message :)

Ohhhhh amazing @Sweetbabydust1989 !!!
That is awesome progress! Sounds like this is your rainbow 🌈 congratulations 🌈

@Babyghirl ok well if it is brown now sounds like your cervix got a bit irritated maybe. I wouldnt think these are periods...
When did you ovulate you think?

@SunnySideUp2020 thanks so much still early days taking it each day at a time.. how are you been lovely?? Xx

@SunnySideUp2020 I think AF has come now. I think it's just line eyes unfortunately. Doctors will be getting phoned today I think xx

@Sweetbabydust1989 🥳🥳🥳🥳 HUGE CONGRATULATIONS!!! Amazing news!!! And hope for the rest of us 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
So so happy for you 😁😁

@apwilso welcome to the AF club lovely, I’m so sorry she got you, especially after a little glimmer of hope. I can empathise entirely. Lots of love ❤️❤️ Defo get onto your GP xxxx

@Annny27 where you at cycle twin??

@sunnysideup2020
Deffo think it's an early period, getting the cramps now to go with it 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈.

@Babyghirl that's weird if it is AF... let us know.

Finally it lasts for me... opk still positive tonight 🥳 CD35 was about time.
So i guess for the past week my body was gearing up but failing and today is finally going for it.
Except we have been dtd 3 times now this week and I am so tired. So today is the last day 😅

@Kelb79 thanks. Yes I think it's time!

Hi Ladies hope you are all ok.

@Sweetbabydust1989 that’s great news on your latest scan really hope this is your 🌈

@SunnySideUp2020 glad your OPK finally stay positive for you hope you got another chance to DTD

Sorry AF is messing around for a few of you.

I’ve had my follow up with the recurrent miscarriage clinic and the good thing is they can’t find any issues (have attached a copy of my letter) but all I can see is the 30+% chance of another miscarriage 🤦🏼‍♀️

@ELM7 Hey lovely! Nice to hear from you. No chance to dtd again but tha fine.

I understand the feeling re the letter. It s like good news nothing seems to be wrong yet there is a recurring issue. And the 60% isn't the most optimistic.... weird. I mean weird that they aren't giving you something else than progesterone and aspirin... but then again if nothing seems wrong guess it is hard.
How do you feel?

@ELM7
It's weird when we get that news like we want something to be wrong so it can be fixed, having nothing wrong does not feel like a relief because then we have no answers for all our losses 💚

Eurgh! I’m having one of those really crappy down days 😓
I would’ve been 6 months this weekend and I’m totally fixating on it! I keep thinking I’m getting over things but then it hits me again and still feels so fresh and so painful.
I feel totally hopeless today 😣

@Kelb79 I was like that at Christmas because that was my due date. You will feel low but you get through it. I get you!

I'm confused period has stopped after nearly 2 days so weird. I don't get it. I had this last time and I was pregnant so god knows. Negative tests on cheapies so god knows

As if I wasn't moody already I wrote a massive message and it disappeared haha. So here we go again....

My period arrived today at 14dpo. Obvs gutted and feeling like shit and just remembered it's the month of my 2nd miscarriage due date so another kick in the teeth 👀

@kelb79 totally understand your pain, it's so shit isn't it! Just no break from the pain and wondering and planning and thinking

@elm7 awwh thats tricky, on the one hand it's fantastic that there's no issues but also it would be nice to have something to fix!
I think all pregnancies have a 25% chance of miscarriage because its 1 in 4 pregnancies. So with the aspirin and progesterone I hope you have an amazing chance!

@27donfin how are you doing - have you started wedding planning?

@sunnysideup2020 yayy for ovulating !! And good going for dtd with being tired from baby haha

We sre waiting to hear back from our ivf appeal which should be a months time. And then regardless of the outcome we will either start nhs ivf or do private ivf come April. Really hope we catch before that as don't wsnt to do ivf unless needed

@babyghirl lots of exciting stuff coming ahead this year with ivf starting for you 🥰🥰🥰

@sweetbabydust1989 amazing!!! Let us know when you have your next scan xxx

Sorry that AF arrived for you too :( @apwilso sucks!!!

@apwilso thank chick ❤️ I know that some days are bad and they come and go but I’m feeling so totally broken today. Should be happy, I’m in the sun by the pool in Egypt but it means nothing! OH is being a total douche at the moment too - staying up most of the night drinking and then staying in bed all day. It’s 2:30pm and he hasn’t made it out the room yet! It’s like being on holiday with a bloody teenager and it’s making me so mad! Meh!!

My period has been doing really odd things this month too!! It’s cruel that our bodies mess with us so much!! Hoping that your at least is good news 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

@Annny27 period buddies! It's crap I'm just confused why it's only been 2 days and not 4 like normal! Well at least you've got a support group here who get you as well. I know how it feels as I've just passed me due date at Christmas!

@Kelb79 go throw a cup of water over him! That will get him up. No nothing can help that pain. Sometimes I have that glimmer of hope of let it be implantation or something but I know it's just my period 😞

Sorry I've been so quiet guys been in a bit of a funk and not wanted to think about all this stuff.

@Annny27 sorry AF came, you would think we would be used to it by now but it doesn't get easier does it really. Fingers crossed for this next month.

@Kelb79 sorry you think AF is here too. Try and enjoy the sun the best you can irrespective of what your oh is doing. Tough days are tough I know (I really do lately especially) but try and remember that this is your life and being sad and getting upset isn't adding to that, it's just wasting precious time.

@Babyghirl watching and waiting with you, be good to get a run down on the time scale from seeing your GP etc to being in the position you're in now. I've had my first telephone clinic with the recurrent miscarriage clinic and had loads of bloods done so just wondering what potentially is the next step and time etc

@elm7 i completely understand your frustration as if there was something you can fix you'd feel more confident going forward. Did they offer you the CERN trial? They have offered it to me but don't know how I feel about it all.

Finally as for me. On CD 7 so will start DTD tomorrow and hope something sticks. Cycles seem to be back to 24 days again so hoping my ovulation is on time this month. Think I ovulated a day earlier than usual last month which screwed things up a bit as was expecting to have some stuff ready and waiting and we couldn't before and DH had plans which meant we were passing ships. Fingers crossed for everyone this month xxx

@Annny27 awww sorry AF has turned up. How was you been? Yeah wedding planning is in full swing September 2023 we get married. It's been an amazing distraction from all baby making thoughts tbh and I feel so much better for it. Waiting on referral from hospital to start IUI was told in November it be early in the new year but as yet nothing but happy just to wait as not missing the monthly tracking and stress the 2 years before were x

@Annny27
On my period now it came on cd17 I was in sync with my sister for period but went of rail after last loss, so now back in sync with her I alway end up back in sync with her lol.

@PeanuttyButter
My last loss was end of Jan last year, had an app with my consultant middle of Feb and got put on it then, got a letter in Oct time to accept ivf offer, put on hold for a while because my rmc consultant wanted an mri and results first so phoned back in Dec to open offer again and it's all go from there have filled in my consent forms and that on line so just waiting now.

@Babyghirl I was referred back in Oct but due to a mix up they only received my referral in December! Im hoping they come up with a plan for me soon, just want hope basically.

@PeanuttyButter
The wait is hard I won't lie but knew it was in front of me like a wheel borrow, I'm nervous about it all tbh, like what I fall but loss again or if I don't fall it all goes through your head 💚

Have to say this is the healthiest period I have had in a while 2 and a half days of red blood instead of the 1 and a half I would normally have before it turned brown for 3 days xx

@babyghirl I usually only have 2 days of red myself then the third day is brown to non existent. Never used to be like that

@PeanuttyButter
Same with me lol but this month it's different still quite heavier than norm for 2 and a half days in xx
