1DPO... any cycle buddies out there?

[Kewchoc]

I'm currently TTC following a miscarriage at 12 weeks on 5th August. I haven't had a period yet but we decided not to wait, as I'm desperate to be pregnant again and I think that is the only thing that will make me feel better about the loss. I have been tracking ovulation and did catch my peak so now just hoping I've got the timing of DTD right.

Just wondering if anyone out there TTC is around the same time in their cycle so that we can chat to each other really. I think I'm already driving my husband mad, it would be nice to speak to other people who really understand how I'm feeling! 😊

Ah good, glad to have helped!

7+1, so still early days, but at least I know it’s off to a good start. I think I’ll book in every couple of weeks now until the 12 week scan.

Hopefully you’ll all be able to get in for those before Christmas!

@Agathapoirot Absolutely, particularly now that you've seen the heartbeat, that's quite a milestone in early pregnancy 😊 I think I'm going to book a scan for around 8 weeks and then 10 weeks, so same as you really fortnightly. I'll be 8 weeks at beginning of December which will hopefully make the anticipation of my 12 week scan being next year feel a bit less far away!

@Agathapoirot so glad to hear your scan went well! I'll probably do the same as you and @Kewchoc and book a scan at around the 7/8 week mark. Last time they managed to book the first scan at around 10 weeks so hoping I won't have to book another one until then.

@tlw14 looks like a fab line! I wouldn't worry too much about symptoms. I read pregnancy can weaken your immune system so to be honest I'm now wondering whether my symptoms aren't just the flu since it's still so early 😅

How are all the preggo's feeling about bonking now? Ha, trying to keep it light hearted but honestly I'm so scared of having sex now. When the miscarriage started, it was the morning after we'd had sex in a couple of weeks and even though I KNOW that the sex didn't cause the miscarriage, I just feel so worried about the same thing happening again. Obviously it's impossible to tell when implantation happened this time but I'm worried that if it happened more recently and the egg isn't super snuggled in just yet, having sex might make it come dislodged somehow. Even typing this out I can see how absolutely unhinged I sound but yet I'm still sat here worrying about it 🙄

@Kewchoc to be honest I'm quite looking forward to a little break from it 😂

You could just stick to the stuff that doesn't go near little bean - I'm all for doing anything that alleviates the anxiety!

Also, shall we start a new thread for those of us who have had their BFPs? I'm mindful that some ladies on here are still waiting so it might not be nice for them to read posts about developing pregnancies...

@Amberellalina Haha, I know what you mean, it's been lovely spending evenings just laid on the sofa knowing I don't need to move until bedtime! Yeah I guess that is an option isn't it!

Good thinking, do you have any thread name suggestions?!

'Bonking our way to BFPs: rainbow babies due Spring/Summer 24'? 😂

@Amberellalina 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I absolutely love it hahaha

I've created a new one and tagged people but I'm pretty sure I've missed someone! In hindsight I probably wasn't the best person to do this considering I constantly get everyone muddled up 🤣

@Kewchoc know what you mean about concern re bonking. I think we might take it easy for the next few days to see how things play out. I'm also still spotting (although only a tiny amount) so don't really wanna rock the boat!

A new thread sounds like a good idea. Happy of course to still give updates here for those who want to see them. Great name btw 😆
