🌈Ttc after miscarriage thread 5 💕✨🤞🌈

[Skl2021]

New thread ladies 🌈🌈🌈

Urgh I’m like fully bleeding now, but still mixed with ewcm. Wtf is my body doing 😣 I hate this so much. I just want to be normal.

Evening all, how is everyone?

@Bridgey8 so sorry you've had such a scare today. How are things now? I really hope Friday comes round quickly for you ❤️

@calimc83 sorry to see you go but wishing you all the best. Hope to see you back on here with your bfp soon!

@arianasky happy dtd!!

@aesgriff how are you today? My cramps have stopped completely so I think it was because I had whole body aches that made it bad yesterday 🙏🏻 I've literally had no spotting today either. But I just don't feel pregnant!!

@PamelaDoov whereabouts are you in your cycle?

Xx

@Cruz86 things seemed to have settled... the odd droplet of blood but nothing compared to earlier. Toying with whether I go for a private scan tomorrow. Will see what tonight brings I guess x

If you think it'll put your mind at ease and you can afford it, I'd be inclined to go for a private one tomorrow @Bridgey8. But it's good that it's eased off since! I guess it just depends if you can wait until Friday xx

@PamelaDoov how stressful, I'm sorry. Horrible to not know what's going on with our bodies. Have they tested your hormones etc after loss?

@Cruz86 Not feeling it either, which scares me. But then I think about the millions of people walking around having no idea for months...sometimes many months .You're a few days behind me I think? I'm 5 weeks today--I think.
@Bridgey8 I'm glad things have settled!

@Sassy144 Hope you're feeling a bit better this evening; counselling really helped me after the loss.

@aesgriff so glad it's tapered off.

Here's to a better tomorrow all around!

@Ganesh2022 no tests, I had a second trimester miscarriage so it’s likely to not be anything to do with me, as I can get and stay pregnant. My cycle was nowhere near as messy as this after I gave birth to DS.

@Cruz86 CD16 but no clear idea when I will ovulate. Thought something would be happening by now but opks all negative.

Spoke to soon... still bleeding :(

@aesgriff @Bridgey8 so glad the bleeding has eased off for you both, long may it continue 🙏🏼

@Cruz86 @Ganesh2022 I think today is the first day where I’ve felt almost pregnant but I’m also full of the cold so could be that. It’s an odd feeling longing for morning sickness isn’t it! I think @aesgriff, you both & I are all within a couple of days of one another. I’m 5+3 today.

@PamelaDoov so sorry you’re bleeding now, definitely see if it’s something you can get checked out.

@arianasky happy almost ovulation, hope you manage to initiate things without your husband catching on 🙊 xxx

@Bridgey8 sorry just saw your follow up comment. Definitely see if you can get in somewhere private sooner 🙏🏼🙏🏼

@Sassy144 I hope your session went well tonight xxx

@PamelaDoov such insult to injury that your body isn't cooperating. Bahhhh! Hopefully this is the last screwy month!

@Bridgey8 ugh. So sorry your dh is away, too, hope you're being kind to yourself and just relaxing as much as possible.

@speake Yes, such a strange feeling wishing for morning sickness...and even then I know it's sadly not a guarantee. Just waiting to feel something! Hope your cold gets better too!

@Ganesh2022 thank you, I hope so

@aesgriff @Ganesh2022 @speake thank you 💛 the first session I could get is for next week, but I feel a bit better having taken that step.

I hope you are all doing okay xxx

@Sassy144 I'm so sorry you're feeling so low lovely. We're on such similar timelines/stories and I really feel for you. It can feel so lonely and like everyone just expects us to be OK now or be grateful that it was quick or that we can 'at least get pregnant'. I broke down completely last week and just sobbed to my OH. I genuinely thought I'd never feel normal again. I keep going up and down. I've felt better mostly this week - barring the little blip on Sunday when I had a cry again. I think cause I've kept my brain busy with OPKs it feels like I'm proactively doing something to make steps to being happy again. Grief isn't linear and I'm fully expecting to feel crappy again multiple times but I'm here if you ever need a chat. I'm really glad you've gone for counselling x

Thankyou for welcoming me 🥰

@PamelaDoov how has your cycle been? I’m getting very impatient not ovulating 🤣 like you I had ewcm but my LH is super low, it’s getting lower too. Starting to think my AF is coming.

@Bridgey8 just read your posts over today, I’m sorry this is happening to you ❤️

@peachiekeen thank you so much 💛 it really does help to have such a supportive space here with others that understand. I'm really glad you're feeling a bit better now, you're right - grief isn't linear and we will have our ups and downs. I can't believe how many people have told me 'at least you can get pregnant' and worse still 'a lot of women wouldn't have even known they were pregnant by that point'. I'm approaching ovulation (or I should be) so maybe that will perk me up for a bit too 😂

@Bridgey8 hope your ok thinking of you 💞 xx

@Sassy144 what awful responses! I've been shocked by some of the things people have said, too. As if "getting pregnant" is the end goal...?!

@Lizm1990 I knew it was probably going to be a long one but I thought my opks would be picking something up by now! And I’m still very confused as to why AF came a week early last cycle. It’s making me worry that I’m not actually ovulating 😕

@Sassy144 that's the one I've had the most! Literally the worst comment. Almost like it's our fault for finding out early. I know that years ago we would never have known but that's not the point! We DID know. I think what makes me so sad is that it's robbed me of my first time. Everyone knows that we're trying now. No mystery and surprise. There's so many emotions to deal with. Having this space to let them out and to people who understand has been everything x

@Sassy144 I get the 'at least you know you can get pregnant' one, it helped me personally, but that doesn't mean others will find comfort in it, it's insensitive.

I don’t think my OPK sticks are working very well, the control line isn’t very strong never mind the real line. Maybe I got a faulty pack. But still doesn’t help as digital opks are neg too.

Morning ladies. On here early AM as I can't sleep and couldn't hold my FMU anymore.. I'm shaking a little bit. My FRER test yesterday was completely neg, I took it to different rooms, to the window, used my phone light.. no hint of any second line.

This morning at 8DPO I'm sure I can see something 😣 it could very well be an indent but these tests looked like this with other pregnancy's so I'm keeping an open mind until I test again tomorrow.

My hands are shaking as I type. I'm so scared because I have been spotting if this if defiantly it 😮‍💨😵
