🌈 Ttc after miscarriage thread 7 🌈💕🤞✨

[Skl2021]

New thread ladies 🌈✨💕

@TheBirdintheCave we had a MMC the medical management didn’t work for us - first dose had a bit of a light bleed but cervix stayed shut and same with the second dose. We ended up having a surgical removal but at least that meant we knew it was finished. So sorry for your loss. We are now on CD8 after surgical mgt and having our first donation today - ovulation seems to be occurring early for some reason - any ladies experienced this? Prior to MMC ovu happened at CD16 with 28-30 day cycles?

@calimc83 big congratulations for you 🎉🎉🎉 ❤️🥰

@Louisa89614 TWW buddies I’m 4dpo and I’m getting so impatient haha, it’s also my first cycle too, got my fingers crossed for us both that we get our sticky beans, when is your AF due do you know? I’m trying to hold out on testing if I’m late.

@ElleBelleLou I’m in my first proper cycle now but I felt so frustrated as I waited for AF before we started trying again, and it felt so long even to get my period, it was 28 days to the day I had surgery but the wait was infuriating. As much as I googled I just didn’t know what my body was doing and I had never been so happy to see AF arrive but it’s up to you if you start trying now or wait for AF, I personally tracked ovulation with easy at home tests and that has helped me feel in more control as I can chart my LH hormone and learn what my body is doing.

@ElleBelleLou agree with this. I found not knowing my body/cycles so hard afterwards. Just have to give it time and let body recover.

@Lizm1990 I’m normally always 28 days but definitely ovulated late this month (first proper cycle after DC) on CD 16/17 so Flo showing period not due until next Saturday!

@JaK0909 I O’d later but think anything seems possible after mc so hope you can get donation sorted just in case!

@Louisa89614 my AF is saying 9th for me, I ovulated CD17 and I have a D&C we are both very similar on all counts, I’m just trying to not give into temptation to test. I’m already over analysing every little pain feeling and I keep thinking it can’t be anything pregnancy related it’s just too soon but it doesn’t stop my mind going into over drive 🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♀️

Hi ladies,hope you don’t mind me joining, 1 miscarriage October 2020, 1 ectopic feb 2021, third cycle trying back on chlomid, I’m 10dpo, cramps and sore boobs (not sure if my boobs are sore from gyming) I just can’t work out if they’re symptoms or AF is going to arrive, I’ve had more creamy CM than usual, visual on underwear (sorry for tmi) which I don’t usually get. When do you think I should test or do you think it sounds like AF will arrive?

Lots of luck to you all ladies and congratulations those who got their BFP xxx

@Lizm1990 well I already failed and tested this morning at 5DPO. So so ridiculous, I was even laughing at myself as I did it, like why am I doing this? Only internet cheapies though so will probably test from Friday onwards…after promising myself I wouldn’t test until AF was late.
I know what I’m like though and it helps me feel in control constantly peeing on sticks! @WorriedD93 I’d test in the morning, but only you can know what’s right for you. I don’t “mind” seeing the negative but know it can be hard to see. Also at 11dpo even if it’s negative, remember doesn’t mean you’re out!

@Louisa89614 I’ve only got a clear blue in do your think it might show on that? I’m so nervous! Xxx

@Louisa89614 I also promised not to test till AF late on Sunday 🙈

@ElleBelleLou I remember you! So sorry to hear you had a miscarriage as well :(

@JaK0909 Yeah I'm worried that's what happened with me. The bleeding is so light I don't really need to wear a pad. I'll see what they say tomorrow.

@TheBirdintheCave yeah didn’t need a sanitary pad, the waiting was horrendous and I was in a lot of pain I wish I’d just gone down the surgery route to begin with - I had general and I was in and out of the hospital in 6hrs with minimal pain. I emphasized that I had a low pain threshold and anxiety- they does me up with lorazepam and morphine and as horrible as the whole situation was it was nice to know it was actually done so I could look forward and not feel stuck.

@Nikkic2123 @Lizm1990 Thank you!! X

Just popped on here to see how everyone was doing @calimc83 soooooooo made up for you!!!! Xx

@Bridgey8 Thank you 😊 xx

Hi @ElleBelleLou I had a MMC with a local anesthetic d&c in late December. My period came back about three weeks later and got negative pregnancy test.

I am now 5 weeks pregnant (and terrified!) but that's another story.

I'm sorry for your loss. X

Congrats @calimc83 !!

Well 12DPO today ladies and still BFN! AF due Sunday so just want it to come now really! 😤

Ahhh hope you’re ok @Mfinch225 which test have you used? I’m 12dpo today as well but haven’t tested yet, trying to hold out xxx

@Lottie2267yes feeling okay! We have only just begun trying so not allowing stress to get to me just yet! I used the ultra early clear blue ones! Let us know how you get on!!! 🙏🏼

Is anyone questioning skipping a month to avoid end of December due date? Mine would be roughly 4th Jan if conceived next month and just wondering what peoples thoughts are!

@Mfinch225 do what's right for you! Whilst TTC I have said I don't want to have a due date close to my two stepdaughters who's birthdays are January, some think this is selfish but I want my one and only to be special and I always feel so stressed around that time as it is after Christmas! For this reason we're not starting to try until July at least, but this gives me time to recover from my D&C and seek out Dr S to get a plan together. Good luck on your journey ☺️

Morning everyone 😊 has anybody had to have their blood tested due to elevated liver levels? When I had my D&C the doctor put an advisory on my letter to say I need my blood taken to check it over, google says it can be brought on by pregnancy or not and there is something underlying, I’ve had my blood taken today so hopefully will get the results next week. The lady asked why I was in hospital 😩 when I said I think she didn’t know what to say …

@Mfinch225 sorry to hear, :( don’t lose hope yet! I’m 10dpo and took a test and it’s negative, I didn’t use fmu but I’m not holding hope, I tired of this journey :(

Apologies for the newbie-esque question, but a negative opk is probably a pretty good indication of non-pregnancy isn’t it, and that the absolute squinters on the pregnancy tests I’ve had in the past week are left-over HCG from my loss a few weeks back? I’ve got a frer coming today, so hopefully that will confirm. I suppose realistically I’m hoping for a snowy white test, as that should be pretty conclusive that March’s drama is finally over. My bleeding was just over 3 weeks ago.

@WorriedD93 you’re not out yet. 10DPO is still very very early and proper squinter territory - particularly on cheapies or own brand tests. Tomorrow or the day after will probably be more conclusive.

@curliegirlie been light cramping last few days and boobs so tender, clear blue completely negative, had a little cry and mini breakdown 🙈

We’ll see what tomorrow brings…crossing fingers for you.

I just got a squinter on a frer. I was really hoping it would either be stronger or blank, but I think the squinter (plus the negative ovulation test) points to it being still from my MC. If I’m still getting squinters after the weekend I think I’ll contact the EPU again - I mean my HCG decreased from 47 to 23 just over 2 weeks ago (and the MC itself was 3 weeks ago). How long does it take to lose that final 23 miu?! Sigh…
