TTC after early miscarriage part 2

[RaisingCornishWildlings]

Hi guys, I've made a new thread! @ThelastRolo20 @bluebunny2 @Blueskies4 @miamiamia869 @Claudiasaz @mumsince2021 @Holly0609

@mumsince2021 I'm so happy for someone I don't know in real life 😂 I understand not wanting to get hopes up but also take each day as it comes this could also be absolutely fine and go all the way. Positive thoughts for you 🙏

@RaisingCornishWildlings Ah it sucks so much but you're going to feel amazing in a few days when the hormones go up again! Hang in there!

I am ovulating soon I think from the evidence 😂but haven't tested. For me personally it is working better, I actually feel like my old self a little bit. So I think even if it takes longer, it's the way forward for me.

Hope everyone's having a good weekend x

Yes my charts have been like that before but just confused as to the two drops haha we’re just have to see. Normally I can tell what sort of way we could be going. Based on six BFP chart history and non BFP. But this one has thrown me off entirely

Aw delighted to see you so happy today. I need to be in more tune with my body. I don't get ovulation pains but I do get egwcm.

Hoping I'll be ovulating in a few days too
Had a rough weekend, went out for a few drinks and takeaway and such. Just felt really low after it. Definitely does not suit me at this point in my journey. So waking up tomorrow with a new focus now. Swimming, healthy food, SMEP plan.

I'm finding charting my bbt impossible as I'm waking up during the night or not at the same time to test

@Ella31 this is exactly why I've not been charting I'm awake multiple times a night now (due to my toddler!) it was much easier to track BBT when I had no kids!

Thanks @Claudiasaz I'm honestly still not convinced and I'm going to be fuming if it's another loss as my cycles will be all screwed up again and I'll be taking steps backwards 😂

Honestly though if I can get another BFP 4 months after my last loss, you all definitely can get one soon!

I used that BV gel last cycle (despite no real BV symptoms) as I mentioned before my GP gave it to me the month before I conceived my son... BV is caused by imbalanced vaginal pH and I started wondering if a possible imbalance was killing sperm each cycle. Might be a total coincidence but who knows 😅

Exactly @mumsince2021 , i really hope this is it for you. Keep us updated.
Does bbt have to be at the exact sane time each morning

@Ella31 I get this. I had a really good friends birthday party a few weeks after my loss. She knew and said I didn't have to go but she's such a close friend I had to! The night itself was really fun but I felt sooo low for about 3 days! Alcohol is the worst when you're grieving etc. I stopped drinking completely after that. Have however been out this month on the good stuff and seem to be fine on the booze! 😂 Just look after yourself this week like you are. Was it at least a fun night? X

@mumsince2021 Ah I get that as a fellow messed up cycle lady. But let's stay positive! Are you feeling any symptoms now? And send us all the link for said gel - worth a try, you're a success story from it I feel after falling twice after using it 😂

@mumsince2021 ah this is really interesting about the gel… I was down a rabbit hole the other day after listening to a fertility expert on an podcast and she recommend that anyone who’s struggling to conceive should first have their microbiome checked for imbalances, as it causes so many more issues than people are aware of apparantly. Considering paying for a test given my cycles are still wonky and it’s not usual for me!

Fingers and toes crossed for you… statistically we’re bound to start hearing proper good news stories soon in this group (god I sound such a nerd 😂) Hopefully yours is one of them :)

@Blueskies4 you're right! I think we put immense pressure on ourselves which doesn't help (I certainly do anyway!) Trying SOOOO hard this cycle to not lol. X

Hi everyone!

I have a scan in EPU on Wednesday.. I’ll be 6 weeks 6 days. Absolutely terrified 🥺🥺🥺

6dpo. Feel so cold. Nipples so painful. Feel nauseous and had some cm and cramps yesterday. All what I had my last six pregnancies that ended in losses so I’m trying keep fingers crossed it ends in a BFP and works out. Normally I don’t get these symptoms until 2 days before AF.

hope all you ladies are ok your all amazing x

I’m also 6dpo and have exactly the same symptoms as you. To early to test though.

@Rosyposy26 yes it is. I don’t normally get postive till 11dpo I’m going to just wait till day AF due and see if i come on or not and test next day. Wish you all the best x

Wishing you the best also. Trying not to be obsessive over it but wishing this week away. Though part of me isn’t expecting it to happen this month as only mc 2nd but have ovulated as tracked that.

You mc 17 days ago? I’m sorry to hear that. I left it a few months between all mine to try again as took me along time for my levels to go down and get signed of as ok. I still has positives for the loss months after so waited til all gone etc. i wish u well :)

Yeah it was early I thought I was 8 weeks but only measuring 5+5. I was getting negatives 5 days after and was complete. Due to my age consultant said to try straight away and treat it like a period. I had 3 scans in 10 days and only progressed 5 days in that.

Sorry to hear you ladies are still waiting out for you BFP.
It’s been 32 days since my last AF, and I’ve not tracked ovulation. Not sure on my cycles following MMC in November. Did a test on Friday & was negative, but I’m too scared to test again as seeing the negative result sets me back massively. I’d rather live in hope for a bit longer.
Only symptoms I’ve had is very mild stomach ache last week, and feeling sick, but not sure if that’s just a symptom of the anxiety around it!

@Holl89 i can imagine how scared you are about the scan. Sending lots of luck your way

@Claudiasaz no symptoms so far but todays test was a little bit darker so not too worries... yet! I'm doing the cheap test every other morning 🤦‍♀️ can't help it need to see the progression as lack of progression always shows me the loss is incoming. I think it's easier to take when you have an inkling with the tests days in advance. The BV gel was just from Amazon brand 'Balance Activ' honestly no idea if it works but I would make sure you only start it after ovulation as putting it in while TTC is not recommended. You want it done before AF but not at a time it might hinder your current attempt TTC.

@Ella31 don't think BBT has to be at the exact same time every morning it's more about the disrupted sleep which can impact readings. I also used to lay still with my mouth closed for a minute when I woke back when I tracked it and then popped it under my tongue to measure.. potentially having been sleeping with the mouth open can impact the readings so that's why 😅 inserting vaginally would possibly be more accurate to avoid those disruptions but I never had to try that.

@Figtree11 🤞🏻 for you this cycle

@Holl89 good luck for Wednesday,
look after yourself before then, I know the feeling pre scan. I saw my little girl at a 7 week scan though (after a MC a few months earlier and then a bleed at 6+3 that I thought was me losing her).

@Rosyposy26 sorry for your loss, fingers crossed for a positive outcome for you soon x

Can I join?

I've been pregnant 8 times and I have one child (DS4) who is lucky pregnancy #4. I've had 6 miscarriages and an ectopic.

NHS testing showed nothing, private testing has shown I have high/over active NK cells so if/when I'm pregnant I'll be on a steroid.

Currently 7dpo on cycle 4 since my MMC in October. I'm so desperate for a BFP but I feel like we've missed it this month 😔 I stupidly tested this morning and of course it was a bfn.

I’ve had six miscarriages@Groundhoghcg it really is awful isn’t it. I’m so desperate for another BFP but the fear is still there when I get it. So I just aim for 11 weeks now till I may feel relaxed I guess. Sending you lots of hope for this month. I too have to take meds soon as I found a BFP. X

@Holl89 gd luck for Wednesday. Are u with company for it

@mumsince2021 Aw that's great! I don't get symptoms until a bit later - think it's normal tbh as the hormones rise! Thanks for the tip with the gel!

good luck with the scan @Holl89

@Groundhoghcg welcome! Interesting your private tests found that. I get what you're saying about the need for the bfp nowww. I think here we can all relate to that one!
