Ttc after miscarriage 🤞🌈✨

[Skl2021]

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?!?!

@Skl2021 Thanks, BFN today but I'm starting to feel lots of twinges 🤞🏻🤞🏻

So I decided to give my CB OPK a try now that it's been about 3 weeks since the MC....don't know what made me do it but I've got my static smiley today!

I'm quite surprised, as if I count the start of proper MC bleeding as CD1, I am currently CD24, which is about a week later than I normally ovulate I think. Just goes to show how much it throws your cycle out.

Glad I seem to have caught it though so I guess I will be able to give it a go this month after all :)

@WhatTheEll your not out yet good luck 🤞🤞
@LittleMysSister yes I ovulated 3 weeks after miscarriage too! Good luck 🤞✨ xx

Hi, looking for some advice please, I had an MVA for my miscarriage three weeks ago, took a preg test today and it’s almost negative but still a very faint line. Can I start ttc again or should I wait til it’s completely blank?

@1stTimeTina I'm in the same boat! I want to start TTC again but mines also very faint line and I have a tiny bit of spotting as well...x

@1stTimeTina @claremc1983 as long as you know you are ovulating I would try from now. My mw advised me to wait a month just for dating really but I wish I hadn't now to be honest as 3 cycles in and still waiting for my bfp. Good luck xx

Hi everyone. I posted on here a few weeks back.
I went for my scan today and it doesn't look good. The baby is measuring two weeks behind and they couldn't find a heart beat. I've got to go back next Thursday. Absolutely gutted.

@Hhdxx I'm sorry it's not good news 😩 life is so cruel at times. Keep strong ❤️ x

Hi all, can I join? Had a miscarriage a month ago between 6/7 weeks. Just started my period yesterday so I’m CD2 now. Period seems a bit heavier than usual but I’ve read that can be normal? It’s been an emotional rollercoaster but right now I feel happy to be starting again and moving on.

Took 6 months to conceive the pregnancy that ended in miscarriage, it was my first pregnancy. Hoping it doesn’t take another 6 months!

@JuniperAndTonic hi and welcome! Yes I think that's normal for it to be a bit heavier! IV just had my first period after miscarriage im on cd 8 now so just waiting for ovulation again. Good luck this cycle. ✨ Xx

@Skl2021 thank you, good luck to you too! As much as I want it, I’m also slightly terrified to get pregnant again - so scared of the same thing happening again but just going to take it one step at a time!

@JuniperAndTonic yes I'm exactly the same it's so hard wanting something so much but being terrified at the same time. I think when I do get pregnant again it will be a whole different story I will be a nervous wreck!! X

@JuniperAndTonic @Skl2021 I feel exactly the same re wanting to carry on but also being worried about this happening again. It's such a tough spot to be in isn't it.

But I have several friends who have had MCs and gone onto have healthy pregnancies within the year so fingers crossed for us :)

Has anyone tried acupuncture? I've had two miscarriages and am booked in for next Thursday. I've had blood tests done and all came back normal! Frustrating to say the least

So I've finally tested negative with a PG test. Still spotting a little but now having loads of CM. Taken an OPK which I e neve usually used but is negative. Is it worth 'having a go' tonight?!

Hi I hope you don't mind me joining in on this thread. I very sadly started to MC 10 days ago the bleeding is almost over now and my pregnancy tests are now negative and so are opk's which is obviously what I wanted to see so I can start TTC again. Im counting today as CD10.

The early pregnancy unit advised me to wait 1 cycle but I really don't want to as I've heard your far more fertile the first 3 months after (not sure how true this is).

On my scan last Tuesday my lining was lovely and thick, ovaries fine, etc they couldn't see why I was bleeding but HCG blood work confirmed MC.

Did anyone else start to TTC immediately after ?

@Hopingforarainbow27 I haven't tried it myself but heard good things about it! Worth a shot! Good luck ✨
@claremc1983 if you feel ready then go for it 😉🙌
@Jayjane79 sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Alot of people do try again straight away. I chose to wait until after period but only because of timing. If your ready and stopped bleeding then go for it! Think doctors only want u to wait as it's easier to date the pregnancy! Good luck ✨

How is everyone else getting on! 💕

Took a bit of persuading! took an opk today. Is this positive? Or not quite?
@Jayjane79 so sorry to hear about your MC. I'd say go for it?? That's my plan!
@Skl2021 hope u are ok today? X

Hi, just checking in! CD5 here, just finishing AF and will start OPKs in the next couple of days I think!

I’ve been keeping busy as I’ve been a bit sad at times the last few days, I think it’s because I should have been coming up to 12 weeks and we were looking forward to making an announcement at Christmas time! So I’ve been trying to do lots of fun stuff (and also working).

@Jayjane79 we weren’t exactly “trying” straight after the miscarriage but also we weren’t being careful if you know what I mean! As @Skl2021 said it’s fine to try straight away they just prefer you to wait for dating reasons unless you’ve been told otherwise!

@claremc1983 that almost looks positive! Maybe check again tomorrow?

Hope everyone else is doing okay

@claremc1983 looks nearly positive to me! Get busy 🤣😉 I'm not doing great in stressed over ovulation already and I'm only cd 11 I'm scared it's not going to happen 🙈😩 need to try and relax. I'm also having moments of being angry and upset that I'm doing this again. I should of been nearly 20 weeks now. Just keeps hitting me in waves 🤦 just want to get through ovulation then hopefully I can relax a bit 🙈
@JuniperAndTonic your not far behind me! Do you ovulate quite early? I don't know when to expect mine 🤦🙈 opk testing is driving me nuts already x

@Skl2021 sorry you're feeling stressed! It's so hard not to...wow 20 weeks. That really is hard...I'm trying my best not to think of the weeks now if at all poss. Are u still dtd even if opk not positive? Worth a shot? Hopefully we can have a go tonight. DH is hungover though

@JuniperAndTonic will defo keep checking over next few days. Hope u are ok? X

@claremc1983 well we were trying for every two days but we missed it yesterday so maybe Tonight I will get back to it 🤣 the only thing is sometimes I don't ovulate until late and I can't keep DTD for a month 🤦🤣 if I do ovulate on cd 14 then I need to get a move on! But my opks are still quite light so can't see that! Just wish it would happen already I'm very impatient 🙊🤣 xx

@Skl2021 sorry you’re feeling stressed! It definitely sucks being in this position again! I usually ovulate day 13-15, it varies so I’ll be interested to see what happens this cycle. I used the clear blue digital ovulation sticks for the first time on the cycle I got pregnant and still have some left so I’ll use those, for a 28 day cycle I think the packaging says to start testing on day 9. But I’m with you - it drives me crazy and I have to be careful not to get obsessed with peeing on sticks!!

@JuniperAndTonic the month I fell pregnant I ovulated on cd 14 which never happens it was like the perfect cycle 🙈 was hoping for that again! All the other months were after cd 20 🤦 I CBA DTD every other day if my cycle is really long 🤣 and yes I'm already becoming obsessed with the testing 👀😩 good luck with your testing 🤣🤞 xx
