Ttc after miscarriage 🤞🌈✨

Just a thread for any ladies ttc after a miscarriage! Nice to get some support from people going through the same thing. So I had a MMC at ten weeks nearly three weeks ago now. I'm still getting faint positive on tests. My ovulation tests are still all over the place possibly due to the HCG still being in my system. So not totally accurate right now. So I'm currently stuck in limbo land either waiting for ovulation or my period 🤔 any ladies want to join the journey?!?!

I think when we fly home roughly 12/13 dpo?! I don't think it'll happen so soon after the MC...and not getting my hopes up but you never know I guess...xx

claremc1983 · 13/12/2021 21:26

@Skl2021 and thank you!! Let me know when u start testing..sending u all the luck 🍀 in the world x

Hopingforarainbow27 · 13/12/2021 23:00

@chasingtherainbow1 thank you, I had bloods done an apparently all normal.. so frustrating. Yeah conceiving is good but not much good if it doesn't stay. :( because you get your hopes up etc

Hi everyone. Not sure if anyone has seen this new campaign!

claremc1983 · 15/12/2021 14:03

Urgh what is my body doing?! Had about 4/5 days of no spotting now it's back again...I'm now 4+ weeks since my MMC. Fed up of it now x

Skl2021 · 15/12/2021 15:37

@Hopingforarainbow27 I have seen it and added my name 💞
@claremc1983 maybe your body just needs a bit longer to settle? Keep positive you will get there!

How is everyone? Any updates! I'm 4 dpo and slowly going insane with the wait 🙊🤦

CD8 for me following first AF after chemical. It has messed all my dates up though so I'm struggling to remember where I am in my cycle as I always used to match quite closely with the actual calendar (CD1 would be the 1st/2nd etc)!

Really hoping for some good news this month as we're approaching the time when I was planning on taking a break from TTC due to too many existing birthdays in Dec & Jan. I guess if this is still ongoing by then I might have to reconsider that, but it really would be so hard for us if another birthday popped up at that time of year.

Looked at Flo today and going by previous cycles it seems I may ovulate on Christmas Eve 👀 Which isn't ideal as DP is away for3 days before that so I'm worried we might miss our chance this month. But we'll be together 23rd onwards so hopefully we'll have a shot 🤞

Really, really hoping it works out this cycle, but I don't have much faith, given it took 5 months to get a bfp and then that ended up as a chemical.

Skl2021 · 15/12/2021 16:27

@LittleMysSister my period is due around the 24th so will be a crappy Christmas present if it comes! Hopefully u still get a chance 🤞 it took me 8 months to get a bfp this time so hoping I'm not waiting that long again 😩 fingers crossed for the both of us! 🤞🤞 X

@Hopingforarainbow27 I saw it and have added my name!

@claremc1983 how annoying! Probably jsut need a time to settle as @Skl2021 says. Hope you’ve had a good time away anyway!

@Skl2021 the TWW definitely goes painfully slowly! Hope you can find something to distract yourself!

I’m CD15, finally got a positive OPK today! And got a bit of ovulation pain today and EWCM yesterday and today so think I’ll count tomorrow as 1DPO. A little later than normal but just glad I seems to be ovulating as normal after the miscarriage. Our bodies are amazing aren’t they!

claremc1983 · 15/12/2021 16:32

@Skl2021 argh will try! Looks like I won't be getting a BFP next week...I kind of new it wouldn't happen but I think in the back of your mind it's always a what if...I'll keep positive! Hoping my AF will clear everything out...have u any symptoms as yet?? X

Skl2021 · 15/12/2021 16:33

@JuniperAndTonic yey you can come join me in the tww 🎉 yes painfully slow I'm starting to get the itch to test 🤦👀 yes stupid I know and way to early I just can't help myself! Yes I was scared I wasn't going to ovulate or it was going to be really late but it was only a few days later. X

OP posts:
Skl2021 · 15/12/2021 16:36

@claremc1983 yes give yourself a bit of time ✨ you never know though your not out yet! Yes I'm trying to keep positive but then don't want to be too positive as it will hurt so much if it doesn't happen 💔 hard balance! Nope no symptoms but I'm only 4dpo so way to early 🤣🙈 need to be patient a bit longer but I am itching to test!! Xx

claremc1983 · 15/12/2021 19:46

Try hold off as much as you can....I know that's super hard though! I have everything crossed 🤞🏻 for you...I'm not sure if it's actually AF arriving actually. Seems more like bleeding than spotting now, kind of hope it is so I can hopefully get rid of all this retained pregnancy material and start again afresh next cycle...x

Skl2021 · 15/12/2021 20:41

@claremc1983 I'm trying 🙊 don't know how much longer IL last 🤣 we'll keep me updated if it is your period like u say fresh start for you! Just enjoy the rest of your holiday 🏖️ xx

OP posts:
claremc1983 · 15/12/2021 21:49

I will! Thank you...no more stressing for either of us! 😬 x

Cruz86 · 15/12/2021 22:38

Hi all. I had a medically managed miscarriage and passed everything on the 30th November. My bleeding stopped completely by last Friday. I'm now experiencing A LOT of ewcm, so much more than I'd normally get! Surely it's too early for me to be ovulating already? It's really stressing me out because I'm so desperate to try again now if it is, but it will mean (if I did conceive this cycle) that the due date would be 2 weeks before my first born's birthday and 1.5 weeks before my niece. I'm so torn with what to do and whether I should just go for it or wait a couple of cycles 😩 the timings were just so perfect with my previous pregnancy 😞

20viona · 16/12/2021 08:04

Hi girls. Had a miscarriage last week and wondering how the hell do I work my cycle out now? I usually do OPKs from about day 9 but I dont know when to start.

Hi hunny ,,, I'm now 3dpo I miscarried 3 weeks ago. I stopped bleeding 9 days later then ovulated another 9 days after that, making ovulation CD18. Tbh the month I fell pregnant I ovulated CD18 and the only reason I can put it down to is the prednacare I'm taking because I usually ovulate CD14/CD15. I started doing opk's again when my bleeding had stopped. I wasnt having positive pregnancy tests anymore and my opk at CD9 was negative so I knew this was a good thing to show when it would go positive again. TMI now Confused but CD16 of this cycle I had ALOT of fertile cervical mucous far more than I usually do, I'm not sure why whether it's something to do with my MC who knows but I knew ovulation wasn't far off when I saw this. If your pregnancy tests are negative I'd start your opk's sooner rather than later as not to miss your window if your not waiting a cycle. I didn't want to. Ive used the premom app and posted you my chart this month following miscarriage. I'm really hoping for a BFP Christmas day.
Ttc after miscarriage 🤞🌈✨

Yes it's been completely negative pregnancy tests since Saturday. That's good news that you seemed to Ovulate so quickly! Fingers crossed for you.

That's really good 👍 I'd start your opk's as soon as. Good luck for us both.
claremc1983 · 16/12/2021 08:49

@Skl2021 so I'm bleeding quite a bit now and can see a bit more of the 'pregnancy material' coming away. Sorry for TMI...but if I only ovulated around last Monday/Tuesday could this be AF or just the rest of my lining finally coming away?? X

claremc1983 · 16/12/2021 08:52

@Cruz86 I think I ovulated around a similar time to you...like you my timings for this pregnancy were perfect. The baby would have been due in May, and my eldest would start school in Sept..if I start TTC now then I'd be due around Sept/Oct which I didn't really want..argh! But I'm not getting any younger....x

LittleMysSister · 16/12/2021 11:38

@Cruz86 @claremc1983 OMG I so get what you mean about timings...like I said in my comment above, we have SO many family birthdays in Dec/Jan, and these include my 2 SCs. And Christmas as well! So hard to afford and too much going on.

My recent MC would have been due in July, it would have been perfect :(
