🌈 Ttc after miscarriage thread 7 🌈💕🤞✨

[Skl2021]

New thread ladies 🌈✨💕

@Mfinch225 Thank you so much xx

@calimc83 I would it's worth a shot. Can u get in touch with your epu? Or will they not see you without referral? Yes keep positive 💞🤞 xx

@Skl2021 hmm I'm not sure tbh? Will try the GP later and see what she suggests..can feel the anxiety already!! Argh x

@calimc83 I had one dose of four tablets at 4pm yesterday so it's nearly been 24 hours now. They called before and my husband told them what was happening (or rather not happening) and they didn't seem concerned. It's just not what I was expecting at all. It's not even as bad as my normal periods.

@TheBirdintheCave I'm so sorry ❤️ I can't offer much advice as mine happened naturally and was very painful and heavy, but I do know that everyone is different.

@TheBirdintheCave ahh ok. How many weeks were u? I had to go into hospital for mine as I was around 9/10 week mark so I suppose it's easier for them to administer more if needed. Maybe give it till the 24hrs is up and call them again? X

@TheBirdintheCave so sorry you are going through this. I had surgical so can’t advise but I’d definitely give EPU another call before the end of the day if you don’t feel things have progressed.
@calimc83 massive congratulations! Seeing these positives really keeps me going. Everyone here has been through one of the worst things imaginable but this gives me hope.

@Louisa89614 Thank you! 😚 what cycle are u on after your MC? It will happen for u xxx

@calimc83 I was 9 weeks but the sac was only measuring at 6 weeks. And yeah I think we'll call tomorrow if nothing has happened properly by then.

Hey everyone- what DPO would you advice is the most accurate for testing? I’ve been guilty of testing to early and want to set a target for not testing till a certain DPO! Would love your thoughts 😂!

I’m only on my first cycle - took 6 weeks to get first period and currently in 2WW.
I tested this morning at 5DPO (negative obviously) so I’m the worst person to ask 🙈 I’m going to wait till at least 10DPO before trying again…

@mfinch225 we have some early testing enthusiasts in this thread (@skl2021 used to be our early bird), but I usually try my best to test as close to AF as possible. Which means some days I test in the morning and then AF arrives a few hours later! While the TWW is torture, early testing doesn't make my wait any easier :)

@Mfinch225 I think it really depends from person to person so the advice I think is to wait until your period is due to test for the most accurate results (I know it's so hard!)

@Mfinch225 I usually test at like 9dpo but I’m 11dpo now and haven’t tested yet. AF is due Saturday so I’m gonna wait until Sunday or Monday. I don’t think early testing makes the tww any easier, it makes it worse if anything! That’s for me personally, I know everyone is different xx

Huge congratulations @calimc83 fingers toes and everything crossed for you.
There’s nothing more nerve wrecking Then these few weeks and every day feels like a month at this rate.

I hit the 5 week mark today, did a clear blue digital and got the little 3+. I thought it would bring relief but I still just feel so negative and down that I’m going to go through the same thing that’s happened twice now.

By any chance has anyone experienced a successful pregnancy with large fibroids? I have 2 and they don’t know if they’re causing the issues or not!

@Tofu35 haha thankyou 😝 I was addicted couldn't resist if I have tests in the house! I know some people can't stand the bfn tho so depends on the person! Xx

Hey! I'm ttc, I got my first period after mc on 20th March, it ended about 24th. I should be starting ovulation in next day or so but no signs and had some brown discharge. Does this mean I might ovulate later this cycle? I wasn't planning on using ovulation tests think I would drive myself mad!

@TheBirdintheCave ahh ok. I'm so sorry lovely, thinking of you today. Look after yourself xx

@Mfinch225 I tested early this cycle 🙈..but tbf I don't know when I ovulated. I think I'm roughly 13 DPO today but could easily be a day or so either side. X

@TTBAM91 Thank you, I'm getting anxious already as I know it's such early days. I don't have any experience of fibroids at all. Have u managed to speak with your GP about them? X

@calimc83 yeah I have but all we know is they exist 😂 I had an internal ultrasound Monday where they checked them (their second check) and I have a call on Friday to discuss it further but now if this pregnancy is viable and carries through I’m guessing they can’t operate or remove them.

They don’t cause me any issues and I only found out I had them because I started investigating after my previous losses. Hopefully they’re not an issue and go away with the pregnancy but they’re considered Large (8cm and 12cm) so unlikely to get that lucky!

What wouldn’t I give for a crystal ball 😂

I completely get your anxiety too, the early stages are the worst but all we can do is stay positive and distracted. (Probably mumsnet not the best place to be for the distracted part though 😂)

@TTBAM91 agreed! Mumsnet only feeds the obsession. I've been off work this week with covid ( great timing 😂) so been on it constantly. It's addictive..
Hmm maybe u could start a thread and see if anyone else has some experience? It sounds like the NHS are at least monitoring you and actually doing something so that's always a positive I guess! I have everything crossed that this works out for you xx

Hello everyone,

I hope it is okay for me to join this late on. I'm so sorry, I haven't been able to read through all the threads.
My first pregnancy sadly ended in miscarriage this month, I had an appointment with the EPU yesterday as not all has passed and my pregnancy tests were still very very positive.
I took another test today and it is really faint so I am confident my body will start getting back to normal and I will test negative soon.

My question is, how do you get back to normal? I was so on top of my cycle before this happened, I knew exactly when I ovulated and when I would bleed and was able to get my BFP at 8DPO because I knew straight away when something was different. Now I feel like I'm starting from scratch, I haven't bled since my mc and I'm left wondering how do I even start TTC again?

I'm sending baby dust to you all and so sorry that we have all been in this boat. Xx

@calimc83

Well...looks like it wasn't covid that delayed AF 😬🙈

I can’t believe I almost missed this, big congrats to you x x

@ElleBelleLou I'm so sorry ❤️ my advice would be to give your body time and once you've had your first period things will get back to normal. Sending lots of hugs, take care of yourself xx
