🌈 Ttc after miscarriage thread 7 🌈💕🤞✨

[Skl2021]

New thread ladies 🌈✨💕

@LuckyMoonstone I think I'm 4DPO too. Feeling anxious but also hopeful that if I did ovulate at least hopefully my next cycle will at least be more normal. It sounds ridiculous but because we've conceived twice so easily without even trying I'm struggling with feeling guilty for asking DH for sex 'just' to conceive. Why?!! Why do I feel guilty about everything- I hate my brain!!

@Cegbee i know exactly how you feel! Literally conceived 3 times with minimal effort 😆 but it’s so obvious now to DH that when I suggest having sex it’s because i think I’m fertile and it’s not exactly the most romantic feeling 😣 TTC is just so rubbish in some aspects. Especially when you’ve had a loss, it takes all the excitement out of it.

Morning everyone! So I had my peak on cab digital yesterday morning and I nearly-nearly there peak on opk last night. This morning I had a blazing opk and a temp rise. Has anyone had this before 🤔? Does it mean I've already O'd?! I don't usually track temps so not sure how the temp shift thingy works!

@bunnykins123 you usually ovulate the day after a peak so I think you're fine! Get dtd today 😉

My temp is up by .2 degrees today, don’t really know what it could mean, if anything. Still been doing opks in the morning just cos I have loads of cheapies so might as well, they are all below 0.2. So I still believe I ovulated last week and it’s not coming now instead.

@peachiekeen thank you! Had crazy O pains last night so fairly sure we are done now for this month.

@LuckyMoonstone do you want to show us your strip progression / chart so we can give you our opinion?

@bunnykins123 I’ve attached a photo of my chart but it’s been all over the place right from the start. As for opks there isn’t really any progression. I test each morning and they’re hovering around the same result. So the last three days have gone 0.2, 0.12 and 0.17.

5th miscarriage in row, not bleeding yet but all tests suddenly gone nearly negative xx seeing doctor for my mental health soon xx

@youngiesophie I'm so sorry to hear that, it's so hard when you don't know why. How many weeks are you now? I would get the ball rolling with the GP, mine was sympathetic and was referred to the RMC even though I'd never 'officially' registered my pregnancies. Have you had any tests done?

@LuckyMoonstone I don't suppose there is any chance you could have O'd early this month? How long are your cycles usually?

@bunnykins123 have already had scans and bloods which were normal and I asked for progesterone when my positives were strong last week but the doctor didn’t want to prescribe it. I’m just going to give up now it’s too heartbreaking and I get suicidal depressed when it happens lol. Thank you for replying 🥺Have you seen the RMC and what came of it? Xx

@youngiesophie ttc is so tough especially when you have reoccurring miscarriages. I totally feel your pain, we've gone from conceiving easily to nothing 😢 maybe it would be worth speaking to your GP or a therapist in the meantime? I've not had my appointment yet, I have it beginning of June (I registered late Jan but I live in Dr Shehatas NHS district so it's super oversubscribed - I know others don't take this long but depends where you live). Would you consider going private? Big hugs 💕

@bunnykins123 aw okay lush that’s not too much time then :) and good luck for then incase i forget to say it in June lol! Sorry to hear that, it’s really awful 😞 I’ve been pregnant 3 cycles in a row now so obviously somethings wrong, maybe I should just try and get referred but I tried to get referred for my mental health which I’ve been trying to get help with since I was14 and now I’m 25 and they haven’t helped me so I don’t have a lot of faith in doctors lol 🤣 I can’t afford to go private otherwise I would’ve got the progesterone private xx

Right guys I’m so sorry to keep banging on but I need help! My ovusense has decided that I’m in my ovulation window! I guess I tried to O last week but it didn’t work… but now im worried that I’ve missed the opportunity because doesn’t your temp go up after O? My OPK has gone from 0.17 yesterday to 0.31 today so either it happened late yesterday/overnight and I missed it, OR it’s still happening, possibly today, and my temp will continue to rise later.

@youngiesophie I'm so sorry to hear that! GPs can be a bit hit and miss depending on where you are. I would keep hassling them, especially explaining ttc is taking a hit on your mental health. I would try and get the ball rolling now just so you have some answers. Just out of interest, in a non-pregnancy cycle what is your LP? If it's short, it can be a sign of prog deficiency and defiantly will warrant prog.

@LuckyMoonstone that looks really promising! Something is about to happen. If your temps and opks are getting stronger, I would start bding today. Maybe use a cb digital if you have one? Good luck!!!! 🤞

@bunnykins123 I’ve not bought any more digitals this month but I’ll keep doing the OPK sticks at least in the evening as well, if not afternoon too. Will urgently DTD later so we don’t miss it 😆

Woo I’m on 0.69 now!

@LuckyMoonstone yay!!! I really hope this is it for you!!!

@youngiesophie I'm so sorry lovely. Definitely push the doctors to get some support!

@theblueflowers hope you're OK lovely? x

@peachiekeen thank you! AF came on the Saturday, about an hour after I took a negative FRER- so typical!

Not feeling too bad about it which has been surprising. It's my first period post second miscarriage and to be honest I was expecting it to feel worse, physically and emotionally, so that's a bonus.

I'm on metaformin for this cycle, so hoping that, combined with the inositol I've been taking for the past 5 months may do something to improve my ridiculously long cycles. It's the thought of waiting till July to even ovulate that is the hardest thing!

How are you doing lovely?

@LuckyMoonstone glad things are finally happening for you!

@theblueflowers oh I'm sorry lovely! Why did our bodies have to give us false hope with the spotting?! I really hope that helps to regulate your cycles 🤞🏼
I'm OK thank you. Feeling on and off blue and can't help but catastrophise lately but trying to live in the moment and not worry about all the what ifs! I'm doing lots of walks to ground me!

Good luck @LuckyMoonstone your temps may still be on their way up 🤞🤞

@LuckyMoonstone temp usually does rise after ovulation when it’s already happened and window over. But if you continued dtd your bases are probably covered. It’s annoying not knowing exactly the day tho right.

bit like that this month. First ovulation post miscarriage. I couldn’t pinpoint it. With opks or my cramps or the temps as they all seemed to contradict a bit. I just know I have ovulated as my temp rose and has stayed elevated.

think I’m 8/9 dpo….ugh so frustrating. I know to expect that first period and it’s better to get it out the way. But hanging onto tiny bit of hope I could of miraculously conceived. As it is a bit of an odd cycle I doubt it. But who knows!!

🤞🏼🤞🏼

Thanks all! If my opks are still progressing then hopefully my temp will go up again tomorrow.

1.04! Didn’t realise it went above 1

Hi wondering if anybody has had dull cramps after their first period after their miscarriage ? Had my period last week first one after my miscarriage. Lasted 4 days and not too bad. Since Friday Iv been having dull cramps lasting most of the day everyday. Is this normal? Feels like the cramps I was having when I was pregnant. We DTD day after period ended and over the weekend. So confused 🫤
