@Ella31 would you normally feel crampy so early on? Don't count yourself out, it's still so early! The early cramps are hopefully a positive sign..

I have since my boys but I don't know if I did previous to that if that makes sense.

I noticed cramps early after my MC and got my period but I didn't have them the last cycle (where I wasn't TTC) before my period. So maybe it is a good sign. I really hope you get your BFP this month.

I had a bit of bleeding after sex last night, at 6DPO.
I've read you might be more sensitive in the luteal phase which can cause this.
My other hope was it could have been implantation bleeding
Anyone experienced this?

No, I haven't I'm afraid but I'm sure others have! For what it's worth I did find a study that found having sex negatively impacted implantation rates

The link is here, not sure how significant it is but I know they say to IVF patients not to have sex in the two week window. Fingers crossed yours is a sign of positive implantation 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Ella31 well, my body just loves throwing me curveballs at the moment. With not ovulating and bleeding heavy for so long on this period, I thought I'd do a pregnancy test this morning with my first wee. I have a faint line (very faint) with how heavy and clotty I was on the period I've just had, I'm presuming I've had a chemical pregnancy? I'm going to get a digital test and test in the morning, then maybe phone EPU. My heads all over the place right now. I tested negative after the miscarraige so I know its not from my MMC. I hate my body sometimes. 😵‍💫

Are you 100 percent sure your last test was negative? What brand was it?

I'm so sorry this has happened? You need to go to the gp now and get your bloods tested. So unfair @DonnaWhat

The chemical that I had was very similar. I had my normal period, unlike yours it wasn't light or heavy but 3 days later when it ended I felt crap so I took a test. Positive digital. Unfortunately it was a chemical. Make sure you go to the doc

Thanks @ThelastRolo20 - I did see this when I started doom scrolling last night 😣 Damn!
Will have to have a ban next cycle (if I'm out this one!!

Oh god I'm so sorry, and how confusing for you. Do ring EPU so they can support you ❤️

DonnaWhat · 07/05/2024 13:38

@Ella31 I tested negative 19 days after MMC and I also tested negative before this last period. I'll get a digital in the hopes it's just a false negative as the line is super faint and see if I can get in at the docs. I have crohns and I have 8 weekly infusions. I had my bloods done last week so I might call them and see if anything was on these results as they're supposed to be a full blood count test. They know about my MMC so hopefully they will have some sort of incline too.

Oh you poor thing. My advise would be get to the epu asap or doc asap because the digital could be negative tomorrow and you may not find out. I'm genuinely so sorry. This is very like my story before my boys and all ill say is, there's brighter days ahead.

Yeah I fully agree with Rolo, now if you are ok with not knowing that's absolutely fine but just in case you want to know. Get to the Epu or insist your gp does a hcg blood test.

Hi all, early miscarriage in Jan. Took a break after that. First proper month trying this cycle. Period due today and no sign. But very crampy. Really feel like AF on the way or playing a cruel joke!
Going to test this evening but obvs won't be FMU. Will it likely show if pregnant ?

@Ttcagainnow if expect it would show if you're passed due. Will keep everything crossed for you. 🤞🏻
@ThelastRolo20 good progression. V.excited for you 💕
@DonnaWhat I hope you get some clarity what is going on soon!
I've had an email back from the clinic so going to reply this evening and get booked in. Feels like a big step- and one I'm not 100% sure on tbh but I feel like we only have a few months left and I want to be able to hand on heart say I tried everything to give my little one a sibling and so if we don't look into this I couldn't say that.

I probably sound crazy but I just know I'm out. I feel like I can literally feel my period coming. Like a trickling feeling and om only 6dpo. Sigh 😕 😞

@ThelastRolo20 congratulations I have my fingers crossed for you that this baby sticks. Really pleased to see you get a positive on your first attempt after your miscarriage and break!

@RaisingCornishWildlings I was just thinking about the fact we have almost hit the due date month of our most recent losses can't believe how quickly the time has passed. Was hoping to see good news from you too but there's still time.

Ttcagainnow · 07/05/2024 20:51

Update from earlier. I've done 3 tests this evening and am pregnant! Really praying this is a sticky bean. I'm already an anxious mess and can't get excited but what will be will be!
Good luck to all of you.

I really hope not, the symptoms can be very similar, I had very period type cramps ❤️

Thank you, it's so difficult though as I'm now (in my anxiety) facing the possibility of another miscarriage, I can't even bring myself to believe this could end up with a healthy baby 😔
