TTC after early miscarriage part 2

[RaisingCornishWildlings]

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

Feeling so low today. Someone we know has just had their baby today and ours was supposed to be 3 months behind.

I know it doesn’t work like this at all, but it’s my lovely friend’s ex-partner and his new girlfriend, who between them basically destroyed her life and have both continued to be spiteful and really quite vindictive towards her, and they get to have a lovely baby. I know it’s not right of me to think like that, but it seems so unfair. I just cried when DH told me (he’s still friends with the ex-partner, which is another story).

Sorry for the woe-is-me. I’m 6DPO today so I know it’s too early for many symptoms and definitely too early to test, but I’ve convinced myself I’m out by looking at ‘charts like mine’ on FertilityFriend (roughly one-third pregnancy and two-thirds ovulation).

TTC is so rough. 💐🫂 to anyone who needs them today x

Think I’m finally out went for a run at lunch and quite a lot of creamy thick CM with a tinge of pink something AF is nearly here. So now on to the next month.

Can anyone remember how long it was before they got first period after miscarriage? I am in the tww, I think I haven’t tracked ovulation as it’s just too stressful for me so we are still dtd every other day but all signs point to ovulation a few days ago!

6 weeks for me @TicklishDreamer was testing positive for a while though so you may be quicker x

@Rosyposy26 ah it sucks. Enjoy some treats! I will be too x

@meepthebeep never be sorry. It takes you to some horrible places! It's healthy to talk about it 😊 x

@Westy22 how are you doing?? Xx

Re the maca. I'm going to order, what mg would you recommend?

Giving the gel and the maca a go 😂 and then if no success me and hub have decided we are taking a few months off. He's even stressed out about it bless him and he's not the one waiting for his period every month 😂

@Claudiasaz I took 500mg I think I'll double check this eve when I'm home xx

I'm good, officially AF due date so I'm a little anxious but had decent lines this morning so praying all is good. Everything is going really slowwww downside of finding out early but I'm trying to appreciate each day. Been cramping a little and CM has increased which I know are good signs x

@meepthebeep its the worst when others have their babies around you. I was the same two weeks after my boys died. Please be good to yourself xxx. Rooting for you this month. Ignore those charts if you can.

1dpo finally. Doing my best to keep negative thoughts from this two week wait.

Can I join? ☺️
I had an early loss a couple weeks ago. It was awful 😞 really knocked me and I'm full of even more anxiety than previously.
I've always been a worrier and now that's 100x worse.

I'm due to ovulate in the next week. Dates may be skewed this month though due to the CP so I've started using OPKs. I'm CD10 today.

so sorry each of you have also experienced loss.

As awful as it is to go through, it makes it a little easier knowing there are groups like this 🩷

@ToeBeans24 so sorry for your loss and I understand about it making you more anxious. There's every chance everything will go just fine next time. X

@Ella31 great idea! I don't know about you but this year is going so quickly I feel like I was just in the tww from January 😂

Spotting here today though so I'm out again. Shock 🫠🙃 must have o earlier but typically didn't test 😂

I think I have now got my first period since mc on 2nd Feb and it’s very light and watery and only when I wipe. Is this normal I also had quite a few cramps which I never normally get.

I totally agree. The months are flying. How are you feeling this month stress wise? Do you normally spot? I'm way more relaxed this month. Telling myself it will happen this year.

Mine was all over the place after my first mc. Your body is healing from the trauma. Hope you are doing ok xxx

@ToeBeans24 welcome. Sorry for your loss. Anxiety is a major part of this journey and normal. Be good to yourself xxx

Thank you. I‘m ok just want to try again. Just never know what to expect.

I was and am exactly the same. Just go easy on yourself. I found opk helpful after my losses as my cycles were irregular afterwards, they did regulate though. Keep taking your prenatal vitamins too and most of all talk. It helps with the grief

Hi all, can I please join! I've just sat and read the thread from the beginning so feel like I know some of your stories already. I'm so sorry to hear what everyone has been through. It's just cruel.

We already have one 2year old. Been trying coming up a year for #2 with a MC in November.

We've done hertility for me which all came back normal. And sperm testing for my DH which was all normal except for morphology. He's made some lifestyle changes so hopefully that will improve over next couple of months.

I'm 7dpo today and determined not to symptom spot. But can feel my sanity slipping away as I go into 2nd half of TWW... xx

Hi everyone,

Can I join the group?
I had an early miscarriage almost 2 years ago. I passed it naturally which was very painful but the worst was how devastating was emotionally as we had been TTC for 2 years. Since then my mental health has been really affected but I'm trying to stay as positive as I can. I just found this group and thought it would be great to hear your stories and know how you are coping.
I'm excited at the moment as I'm about to start my first ever round of IVF next week but I'm so scared at the same time of it not working or having early miscarriages again. It's quite difficult to keep both feeling balanced!
Is there anything you do not to be too negative but at the same time to not overthink about pregnanacy symptoms? I feel that I want to be oregnat so badly that sometimes I make the symptoms up!

@mlruirod welcome, sorry to hear you’ve had a tough time, hope ivf is a success for you. Highly recommend acupuncture for anxiety and a lot of places recommend it as a complimentary therapy to IVF x

@Ella31 I have been spotting before period since the MC so it's definitely the new norm!

Glad you are feeling better this month! That's brilliant.

I'm feeling a bit rubbish that I'm not pregnant againnnn but also not feeling as bad as I have on the other months so clearly learning to get on with it a bit 😂

It's so hard @Claudiasaz , I just found I'm so obsessive about getting pregnant, that I was feeling so crap. I'm just holding onto the belief that I will someday bring a healthy baby home. What dpo are you?

Sorry for your loss and fingers crossed for your ivf. This month I've been focusing on myself stress wise. Walking, cooking, reading. Watching a series in the kitchen on my ipad as I organise things. Anything to distract myself.

@Ella31 I’m also very obsessive and desperate to be pregnant again. I literally can’t relax, I thought I’ll be better as it’s the first tww but I’m overanalyzing everything.

My first one after the boys was horrific so I can completely understand and then I cried all day I got my period but one thing that did help was if it doesn't happen this month (hopefully it will for you) at least you'll have a cycle under your belt. Your system has returned which is good.
