🌈Ttc after miscarriage thread 5 💕✨🤞🌈

[Skl2021]

New thread ladies 🌈🌈🌈

@aesgriff how far gone are you again? I know it's so hard but try not to panic just yet - the fact it's gone brown is good as that's old. I'd say fairly likely but maybe if you demand to be seen they will see you given your history?

Thank you everyone ❤️ you're all so amazing and helpful and supportive I really appreciate it. I contacted work and they were amazing and said take as much time as I need and offered counselling. I turned the counselling down last time as I wanted to just forget about everything but think I may do it this time so I can grieve and deal with my emotions properly. Has anyone else had any sort of counselling or therapy at all?

Still no O for me today I'm CD15 now but my OPK was 0.14 yesterday morning and 0.40 this morning so hopefully going in the right direction, still a blank circle on CB aswell but I never usually get a flashing smiley anyway. How is everyone else? 💕

@Sparklesurprise29 welcome back! I think 9dpo is still super duper early so you are still in with a chance 🤞good luck with testing tomorrow - keep us updated!

Welcome @SillySquirrel and @Pearl93. So sorry you find yourselves here but I hope you won't be TTC your rainbow babies for too long.

@arianasky how did you get on with work this morning? Have you managed to get some more time off? Definitely don't feel guilty, you need to look after yourself with everything you've been through ❤️

@ArcEnCiel2022 it is such a disappointment To hear that Gabriel wouldn't be the one to welcome you 🤭😍

@calimc83 im so sorry af got you 😞 how are you doing?

@speake that progesterone is through the roof!! I don't know much about hcg levels but the numbers look great ☺️

@aesgriff im sorry your spotting is still going on. Is it just blood or is it mixed with mucus? Mine isn't pissing off either and I've now come down with something, so I can't tell whether my aches are from that or of something bad is going to happen. I really hope epu don't fob you off, keep us updated and thinking positive thoughts for you ❤️

Hi @Sparklesurprise29! Nice to have you back. You still have time 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Cruz86 how long have you got left now for your scan x

@arianasky I'm a counsellor and have had a f-tonne of counselling over my lifetime lol so I'm biased. I did go back to therapy after the miscarriage and found it really helpful, it also triggered a lot of stuff from the past and it was helpful to talk about it. Between that and this group, it made it more tolerable that sometimes people "in real life" didn't really get it/thought I should move on. I think a lot of it depends on "clicking" with the counsellor and feeling like they get it.

@aesgriff ugh, sorry the bloody spotting is still going. It's so shitty to see it even when you know it can be perfectly fine and normal, I hope the docs take you seriously

@Cruz86 hope you feel better soon

@Ganesh2022 that's what I was thinking it's still a type of taboo subject where no one wants to talk about it so a counsellor will understand, I'm really thinking about it tbh 💕

@aesgriff sorry this is happening its so hard not to worry. Could you make it sound worse than it is just so you get seen? I know we shouldn't have to but sometimes it's the only thing that works don't want u waiting to see how it goes. Keeping everything crossed for you 💕🤞 xx

@calimc83 so sorry your spotting I was really hoping this was your month Im rooting for you so much 😩 hope your as ok as can be were here for you 💕 xx

Keeping my fingers crossed for your peak @arianasky! I got mine CD16 in the morning completely out of nowhere🤣 CD15 it was a faint line😅

I hope so @bunnykins123! We managed to dtd on O day and before so fingers crossed🤞 been getting symptoms, bloating, gassy, sore boobs etc. But then that could be because of impending AF! how are you doing?

Thanks @skl2021! How are you getting on with your pregnancy 💕

@arianasky glad you have been offered support and counselling 💕 hoping you ovulate soon keeping everything crossed your opk keep going up 🙌🤞 xx

It's next Monday @HoneyLemon29, only 7 long days to go 😂

Ah thank you @Ganesh2022. I feel so rough and my little boy is ill too so I'm using all my strength to get up and get ready to take him to the drs 😩

X

@Sparklesurprise29 are you in the tww? Can't keep up 🤦 I'm doing ok taking it day by day trying not to panic but it's so consuming 🙈 xx

@Sparklesurprise29 mine was like that last month haha isn't it strange how some peoples surge just comes from nowhere 😂

@Skl2021 thank you 💕 hoping it won't be too long, how are you feeling? Any more symptoms at all?

@calimc83 oh no I'm sorry you're spotting 😞

@arianasky hope so it sucks having late ovulation 🤦 I'm feeling ok the sickness and tiredness has hit me like a bus this week. Just about functioning. X

@Cruz86 hope you and little one get better soon 💕 xx

@Cruz86 good luck for Monday 💜 hoping the week flys for you ☺️

@aesgriff sorry to hear about the spotting xx

Maybe take @Skl2021 advice, or maybe say it's for your mental healths sake surely they can't ignore that? X

@HoneyLemon29 it's horrible we have to exaggerate to get somewhere but it's better than being in limbo worrying. Usually if you say it's only a little spotting they say oh it's fine and don't worry but how can we not? Seems they only take you seriously when it's bad. X

@arianasky late ovulation really does suck. You plan absolutely everything on O happening on a certain day to then get nadda in return. Have you got any other signs ie EWCM? I honestly think CB causes more stress (I use it every month religiously though so I'm not one to talk 🙈)

@Cruz86 oh no I'm so sorry you're both poorly - hope your little one gets well soon! DD has a cold too which is absolutely no fun for anyone. How is the spotting? I hope it's easing up a little bit now!

@Skl2021 how are you doing lovely? Are you feeling a bit more relaxed since the scan (sorry if you've discussed this earlier, I'm just catching up!)

@Sparklesurprise29 those are all some very promising symptoms! Sounds like you covered all bases so you really are in with a good chance - keep us updated!

Hi all. I have been trying to conceive since my MMC September. I am not 15dpo but I have had irregular cycles since my miscarriage. Really don’t want to get my hopes up so waiting until Wednesday to test incase I got my ovulation day wrong - to try and take some stress out I only used OPKs to peak result and didn’t take any after or my temp this month so always a concern ovulation was delayed.

Sending love hope and baby dust to all

@skl2021 yep I'm currently 10dpo😵‍💫 at the nail biting stage😅 sending all the love💕 how far on are you?💕

@arianasky definitely 😅 it looks like it peaks out of nowhere then drops gradually as CD17 it was negative but still quite a strong line🤔 I'm going by CD16 as ovulation but it could have easily been CD17🤯

@cruz86 good luck for your scan😍 hoping the week flys by, nothing worse than waiting😬

@Skl2021 yeah exactly. Honestly with my first loss it was just line progression I was worried about. I did ring them and said I've had on and off bleeding and didn't know when my last period was 🤦‍♀️ I was seen and sure enough blood tests confirmed the loss.
With the Ectopic that was a complete shit show tbh. They told me to wait until I was 5 weeks to be seen even though I said I was bleeding. Went to another hospital one night in another county doubled over in pain left sided. Couldn't walk. Sent home after IV pain relief. Went back to EPAU eventually for a scan and Ectopic confirmed and given a Methotrexate injection to dissolve the Ectopic. Few days later I called the ambulance I was screaming in pain. Taken and admitted to hospital and after 2 days of being drugged with oramorph and screaming this pain isn't normal and being told it's normal after the injection, my BP dropped dangerously low and I was found internally bleeding and rushed to theatre having ruptured and 1.5 litres of blood in my pelvis. I still to this day believe there was a fuck up somewhere 🥺 if I fall pregnant this cycle or in the future I will be outside their unit demanding blood tests before 5 weeks x

I don’t know what I’d without you all 😭😭

@Skl2021 it’s so frustrating!! Just want to have a ‘normal’ textbook pregnancy with no bleeding 😪 I am planning on telling them when (if) they call that they must think I’m completely neurotic (verging on true) but that I don’t want to be calling them about this and given the choice I wouldn’t be. It’s the cramps for me that are different this time.
How are you feeling? Like you’ve been hit by a bus 🤣 xx

@Sparklesurprise29 welcome back! Xx

@Cruz86 it’s just blood, no mucus 😞. It’s rubbish that you’re still spotting too 😢 what’s yours like? Sending you a get well hug. I had a cold last week and it was terrible xx

@bunnykins123 I’m 5+5 today… I’ve had a implantation bleed already so it can’t be that. Can’t help but think maybe it’s the progesterone but they’re meant to stop bleeding not cause it 😫 xx

@Ganesh2022 thank you, I hope so. Really interesting that you’re a counsellor.. I work within that field and try as I might I can rationalise with myself but then I end up running away with the feelings instead 🤦🏻‍♀️ Xx

@HoneyLemon29 thank you!! I can but try.. it’s the condescending way they speak to you that’s get me 😪 How many dpo are you today? Xx

@HoneyLemon29 that sounds horrific and traumatising 😱 xx
