🌈 Ttc after miscarriage thread 7 🌈💕🤞✨

[Skl2021]

New thread ladies 🌈✨💕

@Lottie2267 aww I’m so sorry Lottie! Sending lots of love your way! Thank you, I’ve refrained from testing again.

@bunnykins123 yeah it’s the digital fertility monitor, this is what it looks like, I’m scared to test again incase it doesn’t happen :(

@calimc83 does the buzzing feel like a “crunch” I’ve had reflexology a few times but they’ve never picked up anything around fertility always my water works. I’m always dehydrated 🙈 sounds amazing your tech

My frer this morning was definitely squintier - to the extent that I wouldn’t be able to photograph it - so I think I’m finally waving goodbye to old HGC… so there’s positive in the nearly negative so to speak.

@WorriedD93 yep I was dehydrated as well! The first time she saw me she could tell I was quite stressed and my chest area tight. 2nd time she could tell I was loads more chilled ( and I was!) I had some crunchy bits as well - but the buzzing is totally different! Yeah she's great, really lovely and personable xx

@WorriedD93 that monitor looks great! X

@calimc83 yeah the monitor is fab, never heard of the buzzing before I’m so intrigued. Aww bless you! It’s an awful process. Hope your okay xxxx

Girls my sore boobs have gone this morning :/ I’m due on tomorrow. :(

@Lottie2267 hey cycle buddy! I had a couple days off this forum as AF came yesterday and physically hit me with awful pains! Im going yours doesn’t come but if it does/has then it’s a new fresh cycle!

Good luck to you @WorriedD93! I used the fertility monitor last year and found it very clear and effective!

Just want to add to everyone on here that it’s so great to see so many of us with different stories and emotions coming together and being able to speak things through ❤️

And also want to say that whether it’s this month or next or the one after or the one after etc., we will get those BFP’s and and im so excited for us all ❤️ So much to look forward to in life and we have to remember that each month xxx

@WorriedD93 yeah I'm ok today, need to keep busy xx

@WorriedD93 Hope u are ok?? I didn't have many symptoms at all this a cycle so your still in xx

@Mfinch225 hope your okay, sending love, the monitor is good I didn’t know if it would work properly with me having fertility medication. I’ve only 3 months left before they recommend ivf which we pay for.

@calimc83 I’ve had on and off symptoms with cramps and CM but boobs have been really sore for about 5 days and today nothing so weird. I guess il just wait to see if AF arrives

@WorriedD93 I really wouldn't worry too much. Hormones fluctuate in confirmed pregnancies so one day you may have really obvious symptoms and the next, nadda. I've never used one of those, does it tell you if youre pregnant?

@Lottie2267 I'm so sorry, I know how disappointing it is seeing a bfn. Big hugs 💕

@calimc83 I think given I've had a few acupuncture seshs, I might stick with it for now but if I keep seeing bfns then I may give reflexology a go! I mean, hoooow can they feel a buzzing?! It's craziness! No symptoms, I seem to have dried up for now 🤷‍♀️ maybe stick with the cheapies for now? It'll give you a better idea of progression (if you decide to do that!) did you end up testing today?!

@curliegirlie I'm sorry to hear it's faded. Remind me where you are in your cycle?

@Mfinch225 im sorry to hear AF came. It's so hard. I hope you are doing okay and the pains are easing up a bit. 💕

@bunnykins123 I’m CD25 since my MC. Absolutely zero idea whether I’ve ovulated or not though (not managed to catch any positive OPKs over the past week that I’ve been using them) so haven’t a clue whether I’m in with a shout at all this month. I’m probably expecting AF towards the end of next week, but who knows 🤷‍♀️

@Mfinch225 completely agree! After 4 years since I was last TTC and pregnant had completely forgotten how wonderful these threads are 🥰

@bunnykins123 yeah gonna stick with the cheapies...i know the buzzing is so odd but I could feel it as well! When u thinking of testing? Think I'm gonna have a day off today x

@Mfinch225 Hope you are ok!! I'm sure my positive attitude helped me this cycle xx

Thank you everyone, I’ve had cramping all morning but the weird thing is (sorry if this is tmi) I have loads of milky clear cm, I’d usually have brown around this time, all so strange! Deffo think my cycle is messed this month. Never mind.

Just want to say thanks to you all for sending love etc, it does make it easier having you all to speak with ❤️ Xxx

Ahhh @Mfinch225 I am so sorry, I hope you’re ok. Sending you big love. Just get through this week and then you will be on the road to your next fertile window. Xxx

@bunnykins123 you get 4 pregnancy tests in a pack. I used one last month which was negative. Just waiting for missed AF now before I test again, I’m cramping today.

@WorriedD93 gotcha! I've never used one of them before. Good idea waiting for a missed period! Keep us updated! 🤞

@Lottie2267 It could mean something? Do you have any other symptoms? I have a range of symptoms usually before AF and also before getting a bfp. I wish there was a sign that we all knew meant we were pregnant before AF arrives!!

@calimc83 well done for resisting!! Let us know how tomorrows goes. I'm not sure I will, last month I tried progesterone pesseries (bfn 😭) so had to test at 12dpo to see if it was positive otherwise stop taking them. I hated doing that. With DD I didn't test till about a week late so I think I'd almost prefer doing that than seeing another bfn! Are you taking anything like aspirin or vitamins?

@curliegirlie maybe use this cycle as a trial one and then give next month a proper go with tracking O etc? Your hormones can be a bit jumpy for a while after a miscarriage too so allowing them to settle might be good?

I will @bunnykins123 thank you. You ladies are all so lovely

@Lottie2267 I don’t think your out yet. Keep us updated 💗

Quick question about clear blue digital OPKs if anyone knows the answer… is the first test always a blank circle because the test is using it as a baseline? I.e. the first test can’t show your hormones are rising because how will it know what level they are rising from?
I have used them before I just can’t remember if my first test has always been blank!
I’m on CD14 of what is looking to be a 34 day cycle (or thereabouts) so I’ve decided to start testing, ovulation should be by next weekend at the latest. Getting a little bit of ewcm but it’s too thick & cloudy to be the good fertile stuff yet!

@bunnykins123 just taking the usual folic acid and vit d xx

@LuckyMoonstone no I’ve used them and had solid smiley when I’ve caught the right date, or a flashing smiley on first day testing.

I think my period is coming I have proper cramps now :(

@bunnykins123 maybe hun but I deffo think AF is on the way, still having cramps!

@LuckyMoonstone hmm I’m not sure, I have a empty circle when not fertile then I usually get a couple of days of flashing smileys and then a solid smiley. Not sure if it always starts with a empty circle though sorry!

@WorriedD93 aww hope you’re ok lovely, same as me with the cramping 😩 you never know though, I just wish the next few days could go super quick for us both so we know for definite!

I know @Lottie2267 these feel like proper period pains now 😢 hope it does go quick for us both so we get answers x

Hmm ok, it was hard to find an answer on Google but the one answer I did find said that the first test is always blank, but the clear blue site doesn’t mention it which you think they would
