TTC after miscarriage thread 13 💕🌈✨💛

[FfayeN]

Ready for when we tip over the last one. Lucky 13 🍀

@mummatara oh no so sorry to hear that. Definitely well worth a shot at the natural way. Have they booked a date for your procedure? I really hope you make a super speedy recovery and can get back in the saddle sharpish 😘 xx

@FfayeN it def was worth a try my body just likes to cling on 🙈 I did say if we were unlucky a 3rd time I'd just opt for surgery straight away. I'm booked in for weds I could have gone tomorrow but it would be a bit difficult with childcare arrangements and sorting stuff out so another day in the grand scheme of things won't make a difference xx

@mummatara oh what a nightmare. I'm so sorry. Are u booked in for the procedure soon? X

@calimc83 yea weds. Least they could get me in quick 💪🏼

@mummatara I'll be thinking of you. Make sure you take the rest after though, I was pretty sore through discomfort and a little bit of guarding I think, but like any surgery it's just a bit exhausting xxx

@mummatara I can’t believe it’s still going on for you! Urgh I’m sorry. So frustrating!

Its been 2 weeks now so I’m supposed to have done a test to check if it’s negative but I’ve run out 😆 so I’ve got to wait until tomorrow or Wednesday

@mummatara thats so fustrating😖😖 hope you’re feeling okay but at least it should be all over by Wednesday! Xx

@FfayeN thanks lovely I'll take the rest of the week off I felt quite ok after the one in June. I'm away for my birthday this weekend no toddler so I'm being wined and dined no matter how horrid I feel 🙈

@LuckyMoonstone ahhh gosh I hope it has for you surely by now the last one was quite faint if I remember 🤔

@mummatara what a way to end the ordeal though! Start the next age year with gusto and freedom from the MC, with a hefty glass and some nice food 🥰 xx

@mummatara oh hun I'm so sorry. I know you said you thought that was a possibility due to not passing much previously. It's good they can get you in so quickly tomorrow! You've really been through the mill with this, big hugs from me 💕

Does anyone else who's had a baby before still get phantom kicks? I had them on and off last year and then they stopped and just this past week they've come back again but instead of one every month or so this is loads of times a day.

It feels exactly like when my son was between 12-20 weeks, like I've got a little goldfish inside wriggling and tickling.

It's starting to get really annoying x_x

@ChloeN yes v frustrating but not long to wait 🤞🏼

@FfayeN 😂 I know I actually can't wait to indulge poor DH won't be getting any action but I'll tell him to conserve his energy 😂 it feels like forever since we've just enjoyed going out getting cocktails and eating good food not a bad way to start 37

@bunnykins123 thanks lovely❤️ yes I knew there was a v high chance so I'm not super shocked tbh. She showed me on the screen the sac all still there doesn't even look broken up 🤦🏼‍♀️she even showed me my nice good looking ovaries she said

@TheBirdintheCave I had so many phantom kicks after I had DS and I got them after the first MC

@mummatara It's just the weirdest phenomenon. Totally convincing. I hope they go away soon.

@mummatara I’m sorry ♥️ Must feel like such a knock, these things add another level of trauma to navigate through which you didn’t need. Only positive is that it is now found and you’re booked in, but that doesn’t make it any easier to cope with I’m sure ♥️ xxx

@TheBirdintheCave and @mummatara I’ve had this too!!! Weirdest thing, thought I was going crazy x

@MrsCristianoX Hi so I went into the pharmacy and asked. I was told to talk to my gp because from what I described, said it could be an infection. So I did an online consult. Had a call from a paramedic in my gp surgery who asked me to pop in. So I was seen as soon as I walked in. Said I have an inflamed ear and to use EarCalm for a week.

@Everythingzrosie I hope that's sorts it..🙏 an outer ear infection then? Nasty with the dizzy spells though 😢

@Everythingzrosie at least you can start getting better now ☺️.
@mummatara hit the reset button and then when you can DH will be raring to go and get one of those juicy eggs fertilised! Xx

Oh @mummatara that is so shit. As if it hadn’t clung on for long enough already ☹️ How can we let our bodies know it’s ok for them to let go?
Sending hugs for Wednesday and fingers crossed it will be the start of a new chapter x

Hi ladies, hope it's okay to join in. I've caught up on most of this thread, as I didn't want to jump in and ask questions that had already been asked and answered!

@mummatara I really feel for you. Hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow, and that your weekend is brighter x

@TheBirdintheCave this has blown my mind, I didn't know phantom kicks were a thing! 😯

A little about me. I conceived in July (first planned pregnancy), and miscarried at ~10.5 weeks at the end of September. Well, in my mind I was that far along, but we found out that the heartbeat had stopped at 6.5. Had surgical management on 30th September and just had my first period post-MC. It was shorter and lighter than normal which I was a bit concerned about, but good to see from all your experiences that it's not uncommon post-MC.

We are going straight into trying again, so I'm back on OPKs and BBT this week. I would probably have liked another month or two, but I have endometriosis and the longer I am off hormonal contraception the worse it gets (including during early pregnancy) 😕 So don't feel I can 'afford' not to jump straight back in.

I was wondering if you spoke to your GPs after your MCs? I didn't, as I just assumed that the hospital would send them a letter to have on file, but it occurs to me that maybe I should make sure that's been done? In the event that I have more MCs, I want to be sure that they are all recorded. I was under the impression that they wouldn't do anything after one MC anyway, but it sounds from higher up this thread (sorry, I have forgotten who mentioned it) that some of you were able to get a blood work-up, is that right? Or was that only after multiple MCs?

Thank you for any advice x

@mummatara good luck today! I'm sure it'll be a fairly quick procedure and at least you know that'll be the end of it!

@TheBirdintheCave I get similar but always just assumed it was wind 🙃

@Rabbitjungle1 I'm sorry you've found yourself in this group. I didn't after my 1st mmc but I went on to conceive DD. I've since had 3 miscarriages and called the GP after the 3rd. I didn't register with any of them as they were early losses but I was referred to the reoccurring miscarriage clinic fairly straightforward.

@mummatara sorry it’s not resolved and you need surgery. Hope it all goes well tomorrow x
@Rabbitjungle1 sorry for your loss. I think it’s very dependent on your gp if they do bloods tbh, so maybe worth an ask, they can only say no. My gp wouldn’t do bloods, but referred me after 2 miscarriages to recurrent miscarriage.

Hi Guys.I'm currently 5 weeks pregnant with baby number 2. Back in May I have suffered a miscarriage at 9 weeks pregnant and I'm really nervous to refer myself to the midwife this time again.I might wait closer to 12 weeks and refer myself then.My work is crazy before Christmas and I was offered loads of overtime and I really need extra money with everything going up.I work in childcare BTW.Thanks.

@LovelyNanny26 This is a TTC thread and a lot of us aren't pregnant yet here. I think you'll get more support on a thread for people who are now pregnant following a miscarriage :) Good luck!
