Hi, I’d like to join please 💜
I had a miscarriage at the end of November 2 weeks before my wedding day😕 just went for a private scan & there was no longer a heartbeat at 9 weeks when I’d seen 1 at 6 weeks. Still absolutely heartbroken from it but time has made it much easier.
TTC but I don’t know if things are properly back to normal or not. I used Clear Blue ovulation to monitor until I ovulated (or thought I ovulated) but AF due tomorrow & no bfp 😕 very disappointing & hard to get by to the next cycle. Especially when your surrounded by lots of pregnant people! Xx

@Cruz86 @Skl2021 hope your little ones are ok? 😔 currently in the midst of soft play hell! 😆🙈 x

calimc83 · 21/01/2022 10:46

@Bon234 welcome 🤗 I'm so sorry for your loss, especially before your wedding day. That's heartbreaking 💔 xx

Sparklesurprise29 · 21/01/2022 10:59

Hi everyone, sorry to hear about people being unwell☹💖 Welcome @bon234, so sorry for your loss☹💖 its so hard when theres pregnancy announcements everywhere, it really hurts!!

I'm mega confused right now. Had so much cm over the past 2 days, did a opk yesterday and was quite faint, today theres loads, like a mix of creamy/ewcm, no idea if this is my body trying to ovulate or (wishful thinking) that its a good sign...💖

Sparklesurprise29 · 21/01/2022 11:04

Still very early @skl2021💖 wish you could just find out if dtd has worked straightaway, would save so much stress and money on tests🙈

Hope you're okay @cruz86, could it be IB?💖

Keeping my fingers crossed for you @cindy974💖

Hope you're okay @pameladoov, the blood takes you right back to all those feelings☹ i think i get a flashback to it all each time I sit on the toilet pan☹💖

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 11:15

@calimc83 thanks I'm hoping he will be better soon 🤞 been a long week! Haha I don't envy you 🤣🙈 hate soft play! X

@Bon234 welcome 💐 sorry to hear your story. Such horrible news right before you wedding 💔 x

@Sparklesurprise29 have u taken an opk incase it is ovulation? Maybe DTD just incase 🤞 hope it is good news! Yes I wish we didn't have to wait! I don't feel hopeful this month but we will see! But I'm prepared for af! X

I hope everyone and kids ok. So sorry to those needing to run around to hospital etc. Like this isn't stress enough!

Any advice on how to be...normal...out in the world? In the house? Really struggling, feel like I have nothing to give or say; it's the first thing I think about when I get up in the morning, and I can't put it down. My husband has said that if trying is going to be this stressful maybe we ought to decide to stop and be happy as we are. While I can see a point where that becomes true, that doesn't feel true to me right now, for us, so I feel like I also need to get my "chin up" for him a little so he doesn't quit the whole thing :/

Separate thing and I think conversation has moved on since then, hospital has told me that unless there's an infection, etc., there is no risk of trying again right away and that their advice is for dating/emotional reasons rather than risk to pregnancy. In case that helps anyone on the fence, I think we've prob. had conflicting advice which probably translates to "no one really knows."

Sorry for the essay!

aesgriff · 21/01/2022 12:03

@Ganesh2022 if you found out how to be normal then let us know 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

I thought my partner may be like that following the miscarriage with TTC as I was so upset. He's swung the other way and now wants it more then ever because he saw how much it hurt me. Have you been able to speak openly with him about your hurt and your fears for future conceiving? Sending big hugs xx

PamelaDoov · 21/01/2022 12:05

Thanks everyone. It’s easy to see a bit of blood and get upset straight away. But it’s not that bad. It’s back to brown and barely there again. And my cervix is higher than it was yesterday so that’s a good thing. I think I’m just getting the last few dregs now. I think it’s ok to start DTD, maybe wait til tomorrow to be on the safe side.

Ganesh2022 · 21/01/2022 12:22

@Bon234 so sorry, that's such hard timing :(

@PamelaDoov hope this bleeding resolves for you once and for all!

Ganesh2022 · 21/01/2022 12:25

@aesgriff Ha will do :P I do think some people have a bit more of the ability to fake it, though, or to have a bit of a "social front" whereas I can't help but wear everything I'm feeling, and that isn't really a good thing at the moment. I think a little bit of faking it would be good for me...
I did talk to my partner about it all this morning; we're at a bit of a stalemate. He doesn't want me to keep my feelings to myself but equally I know him, and he couldn't do this 2 or 3 more times and keep going. It also feels a bit messier for me, I think, than for him, as it's gotten tangled up with a lot of stuff from the past, whereas for him it's sad but it's straightforward if that makes any sense.

Sparklesurprise29 · 21/01/2022 15:18

This was my opk result @skl2021🤔

Ttc after miscarriage thread 2 ✨🌈🤞
Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 15:24

@Sparklesurprise29 it's not peak but it's quite dark could u be close to ovulation?! 🤣🤔 There a bit like mine were don't know if I'm coming or going!! X

Cindy974 · 21/01/2022 15:26

Sorry for TMI but I have soooooo much CM at the moment and its really creamy. So much I think I’m bleeding but then I check and I’m not. Is this a good thing 🤔

Sparklesurprise29 · 21/01/2022 15:33

I'm so confused🙈 thats what its like and getting the ewcm too, now I'm worried I'm going to have a weird long cycle😟 when are you next testing @skl2021?
Thats a good sign @cindy974!!🤩💖

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 15:36

@Cindy974 I would say it's a good sign 🤞

@Sparklesurprise29 Im not sure maybe DTD just incase and see if they get darker over next few days? But u thought u had ovulated didnt u 🤔 might just be a random surge? IL be testing again In the morning 😄 I'm all in now might aswell go for it everyday! 🤣🙊 x

Cindy974 · 21/01/2022 15:40

Hopefully 🤞🏼 Fingers crossed for us all. My FRERS have arrived from Amazon so tempted but pointless wasting them at the moment

Ganesh2022 · 21/01/2022 15:40

@Cindy974 for me it was a good sign! Fingers crossed for you.

Sparklesurprise29 · 21/01/2022 15:44

Yep so this messes up my dpo countdown😅 going to try dtd later when DH comes home from work just in case 🤣 quite right @skl2021 and your chances of seeing a BFP are going up each day🤞🤞
My FRERs are stored in my toiletries cupboard @cindy974 every time I go in there I'm so tempted 🤣 even though now I don't know whether I'm coming or going right now!!

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 15:48

@Cindy974 try and hold on a few more days 🤞 hope it's good news for you!

@Sparklesurprise29 yes I'm not quite sure if u have or haven't now 🤣 just see what the opks say tomorrow! Yes I'm not feeling very hopeful this month for some reason you know u just have a feeling your out 🤔 well IV had it all month 🤣🙄🤦 x

OP posts:
Cindy974 · 21/01/2022 15:54

@Sparklesurprise29 yeah I am keeping them for “special occasions” 🤣

@Ganesh2022 thank you hopefully it is for me too 🤞🏼

@Skl2021 keep the positive vibes!

Cruz86 · 21/01/2022 16:29

@Sparklesurprise29 I got ewcm before my bfp in October. And apparently we can have a secondary estrogen surge in the middle of the TWW, so if your opk isn't peak, I wouldn't necessarily worry about ovulation! X

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 16:59

@Cruz86 how your little one? X

OP posts:
Cruz86 · 21/01/2022 19:03

He's okay thank you @Skl2021, decided against taking him as he was alright in himself, and he's perked up more and more as the day's gone on! Just suffering with bad cramps, although I think exactly the same thing happened with my bfp too x

Skl2021 · 21/01/2022 19:16

@Cruz86 great news 🙌 glad he's better! Ooh maybe this is your month then!! 🤞 Sounds promising! X
