A sad update from me. About a week and a half ago I got my cycle - all normal, came on the day it was supposed to. Had Bfn's so was sad but onwards and upwards. Fast forward 3 days later, I was feeling rough ...so took a preg test and was shocked to see pregnant on a digital and a faintish line on a frer.

Went to doctor on the Monday, the fact that I got my period when I was supposed to meant she agreed it was likely this pregnancy wouldn't last. Bloods were low only 55 and I should have been about 5 weeks nearly. But she was surprised to see they doubled two days later....that was last Thursday.

Unfortunately today on Saturday I've had brown discharge almost jelly like. Slight cramping in my back and my tests look lighter. Also my digital only says 1-2 weeks. I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow according to my last real period.

I'm utterly devastated. I should have known that getting my full period on time was unlikely to result in a viable pregnancy. Have to wait till Monday to see Doc and get bloods again.

@Ella31 so sorry you are having to through this stress will keep everything crossed for you

Thank you. I've little hope really. The brown discharge was minimal but the faint tests are key I think.

Bubblemachiene · 05/03/2023 07:28

Thinking of you @Ella31 its so rubbish

bringmearainbow · 05/03/2023 09:20

@Ella31 ahh that's rubbish lovely. I've got everything crossed that it will be ok ❤️

Thinking of you @Ella31 its so rubbish

Thank you so much. Tests are sooooo faint now. At least I've closure. No one will see you here on weekends.

I'm starting to think there is something wrong with me. I had a mc in August at 7 weeks. The only thing that's giving me hope is I was very sick the week I conceived this baby , had a serious cold over and I was on antibiotics and ibrufen. I had no idea I would conceive. Maybe that did this. I'm terrified there is something wrong with me.

Daniki · 05/03/2023 11:25

@Ella31 miscarriages are so common and usually it is chromosome abnormalities that cause it, I’d go to your EPU next week and find out what’s happened anyway and they’ll have all on record and hopefully be able to help you with conceiving again, doing tests etc to rule out anything or prescribe medication if needed.
i really do know the feeling of thinking something is wrong but there is nothing to say you won’t have a successful pregnancy.
Wishing you all the best! X

tulipsunday · 06/03/2023 18:21

So sorry @Ella31 it is so rubbish. Hope you are feeling ok today.

Hope everyone is ok. No AF yet so still holding on to some hope 😬 🤞

Evening ladies 🙂 please May I join ? I was part of a thread last year March /April I think felt pregnant April then had my 3rd MMC June 22. I needed a break as mentally could not cope. I've had some tests & Tests have come back positive for APS. So now feel about ready TTC Again. I've come off the pill
Feb and have started tracking my ovulation.

Wishing you all lots of luck 🍀

tulipsunday · 06/03/2023 20:00

Good luck @indieray sounds a good idea to have taken a break. It really does mess with your head this TTC stuff. Hope your body resettles quickly post pill

Update : Blood tests confirmed my loss today. Should be 6 weeks but the lack of cramps and severe pain like my last mc is suggesting a possible chemical.

Hoping my cycle won't take too long to get back to normal. I'm so regular so this has thrown me for a loop. Sigh....Next time hopefully.

indieray · 08/03/2023 00:20

Anyone have already one child and ttc2?
Anyone over 35? Xx

bringmearainbow · 08/03/2023 07:22

@Ella31 sorry to read your update ❤️ hopefully it won't take too long for your cycle to return

@indieray I'm 37 and TTC #2

TheBirdintheCave · 08/03/2023 07:50

@indieray Yes and yes.

tulipsunday · 08/03/2023 08:18

@indieray yep to trying to conceive number 2. Turn 35 this year.

How is everyone doing? Going crazy here. Cd30 not even a hint of a line on FRER but no AF. Last cycle 23 days. Going to be so gutted if AF comes now that this cycle has dragged. Felt dizzy yesterday morning so thought I might get a bfp today but maybe my hormones are just messed up. 😬

TheBirdintheCave · 08/03/2023 08:27

@tulipsunday Just lost in the fog here. CD27 and no idea if I've even ovulated yet so no clue when to expect AF.

bringmearainbow · 08/03/2023 10:13

@tulipsunday I'm 7/8dpo did a e@h this morning and of course bfn 😂 how odd how long are your cycles normally?

Daniki · 08/03/2023 10:35

@indieray yes TTC baby nimbler 2 and have had 2 Mc recently l. Turn 35 in November! Hard to know when I ovulated this cycle as it’s normally day 9/10 but my period actually lasted 10 days this cycle so who knows 😂 tested this morning but negative

@Ella31 so sorry to hear this, hope you’re ok x

Bubblesandballoons · 08/03/2023 10:39

@indieray I’m 36 and ttc#2. Had 4 early miscarriage so far.
@Ella31 sorry to read that. Hope you are looking after yourself 💛
@tulipsunday af has just finished so it’s dtd time. The nice relaxed part of the cycle lol. Sorry you’re in limbo, hope your body lets you know soon what it’s doing xx

tulipsunday · 08/03/2023 11:02

@TheBirdintheCave it is like being in a fog isn't it! Hope you get some clarity soon.

@bringmearainbow 😂 well good to check! Hopefully the bfp is round the corner for you.

I have had two miscarriages within 6 months so cycle not really had a chance to regulate does make it hard to know what to expect.

tulipsunday · 08/03/2023 11:04

Is it snowing where you all are? Is in the South East today and we can't cope not used to it 😂❄️⛄️

@Ella31 so sorry to hear this, hope you’re ok x

Thanks everyone, I had a lot of tears over thevweek but I'm strangely ok, obviously I knew what to expect from the last one so I felt less confused, but also because it was a chemical , I didn't have the severe cramping and didn't pass the sac and embryo like last time, that was really traumatic.

Should I wait to try again or just go for it. My hcg dropped to 12 so I'm hoping that will decrease to 0 quite quickly.

Daniki · 08/03/2023 11:11

@Ella31 if you feel ready & ok I’d just go again. I’d say many women have had chemicals and just haven’t realised and kept trying their next cycle and have had no issues going again if you get me?

Dinosaur39 · 08/03/2023 13:12

Hi ladies, I have spent a fair amount of time reading up on your stories on this thread and hoping to be part of your TTC club soon once I hopefully get the all clear from my MMC.
I was just searching for some advice if possible. I had my natural MC 4 weeks ago and stop bleeding 5 days after but at a scan 2 weeks ago was told there was still some retained tissue and she would give me another two weeks to see if this passes naturally.
On Saturday I passed some clots/tissue which continued into Sunday with some bleeding and since then I have been having very light pink bleeding or dark stringy bleeding and sometimes nothing but it hasn’t stopped completely but nowhere near as heavy as the weekend.
My HCG tests are vvvv faint and I just wondering does this sound like possibly I passed what was left and my body is just clearing out or do we think there could be something left which is why it hasn’t stop.

Any advice would be appreciated I just want to move on!
