Just MC'd. Starting it all again.. Come and join me for the long haul, vol 2

[thefatladyscreams]

Hardly the most original title but I didn't want to loose anyone (well that's my excuse for the lack of originality!)

Evening everyone,

Good news boodle - AF at last! Roll on the next few months and whatever comes after that...

meita - hopefully nature will catch you out and you'll get a BFP the one cycle you are not expecting it! [TFLS puts on her best optimistic, one foot foward face] I had a temp surge today which is weird as I was sure I hadn't ovulated this cycle (usually happens around day 13-14). Typical as seen no action this week as felt really ill and decided it wasn't worth it as wasn't ovulating! Bet it turns out to be a late ovulation and I've missed the boat. Mother Nature - this isn't funny any more.

I've ordered some preseed for next month as part of my continual yo-yo between obsession and depressed apathy. Oh well, at least it will make a change!

cheepz how are you doing? I'll be thinking of you this weekend and wondering if you will resist the urge to test early. Avoid all pharmacy aisles when you do the shopping!

MrsR - where are you? I have a vision of you still running around waiving a BFP stick in the air!

Hope you all have a good weekend. Our heating has broken so off to load up the woodburner and jostle for best position with the dog!

Evening - remember me?

I've been so tired (I know that's a crap excuse) .

Firstly boodleboot congratulations on getting your period. Hopefully the next thing I'll be congratulating you on is a BFP

cheepz I'm not leaving you all, you guys were really nice to me, so I'm here to support you back. Even if it does take me a couple of days to get back in the swing of mn.

DH is out tonight, something which I'm pretty happy about because he just seems so annoying. Unfortunately, he's pointed out that he's going to be so drunk tonight that I'll have to get up in the night to see to ds.

Like my last pregnancy no symptoms - I must be the luckiest woman on the planet. My breasts feel heavier and my tummy has already grown a little (no not from all the chocolate and take-a-ways I've been consuming lately). I've just been Googling the tummy thing and apparently for subsequent pregnancies you do get a bump sooner and bigger.

I hope your all having sex every other night .

Good luck. I've got my fingers crossed for you all.

I'll stop by again tomorrow - promise

Have pmt - light cramps and all signs are AF in next day or so - came on CD 29 last month so would expect maybe tomorrow cd27 this month as often if longer one month is slightly under the next. If not then would think by how I am feeling will be sunday. Only have self to blame I mean I know it only takes once but I should be making much more of an effort to go for every other day from 9 to 17!! But that's just so much sex!!!

Hello mrsr my dh also out tonight and feel much the same as you - am contemplating watching marley and me and easting chicken soup. Seeking comfort??!!

Glad you are not feeling crappy and that you are going to hang here for a while.

tfls my downward yo has finished and I seem to be yoing back up, hope you do to

meita how goes it, looks like we dragged you with us

tigger you still around? Hope you are doing ok

Any news from tigerbear

Welcome back mrsR. Glad you're doing so well - just hope your DH doesn't snore tonight! Mine does after a drink.

Cheepz you're not out until you're out. Or at least until I've sung! Still got my fingers crossed for you. But if AF appears you can join me in the slippery side and order some preseed!

Evening

DH and I both have a feeling I'm going to miscarry, we finally admitted it to each other today.

I don't want to miscarry.

Why do we both have this feeling? We never felt like this with DS. The sooner I get that scan the better.

I'm trying to be positive, I don't have any of the symptoms - I'm still checking the 3 BFPs (it's really stinking out the downstairs toilet).

We went to Mothercare today and brought a teddy and some 'baby boy' and 'baby girl' clothes for the new baby. Something physical until the scan.

Then visited my in-laws and ended up going out for lunch with them - they paid, which was really nice of them. Must txt them and thank them again.

I do wish they'd back of a little though. Before we've even got through the door they want to hold the baby (he's 11 months and heavy and just wants to crawl and cruise), today the camera was out pretty much all the time, the mother-in-law put cusions over the fireplace, got teddys etc for DS to play with (even though he doesn't want to play with them and we bring his toys anyway) and basically she takes over. In the restaurant we sat down and she asked if I wanted the table moved a little so DS could go on the end. Twice I said no, there was room, DH also said it was okay, but she went ahead anyway and moved the table. She just completly takes over.

Anyway, sitting here waiting for The X Factor to start, how is everyone?

Yeh I forgot to mention, I'm munching on some Thorntons chocolate - DH made me buy some .

Chocolate sounds spot on MrsR.

I'd have thought the fear of miscarrying again is sadly something that goes with the territory now. I suspect we sometimes focus on it to prevent our hopes getting too high.

But it is just that - a fear. A fear based on one horrible experience. This pregnancy is new and there is absolutely no reason why you won't go on to have another little one running you ragged. I'd have thought you'd still be a little early for many symptons so I wouldn't over worry about that.

More medicinal chocolate needed MrsR! Sending you a big virtual bar.

Hi I'm still here and following you all but lying low, as if somehow that's going to make any difference to the outcome of this pregnancy Thank you all for being pleased on my behalf, it means a lot, and I hope you all get your BFPs soon.

mrs R - congratulations. I do know that awful feeling that this pregnancy will go the same way as the previous one.

I have started bleeding over the last couple of days and really don't know what to do with myself. I'm not sure I'm strong enough to get through this again.

Oh chamo (((hugs))) I'm keeping everything crossed for you. There is really not much you can do... Lie down a lot, drink plenty!

I hope for this bleeding being benign and your bean a sticky bean.

Hang on in there. It's not lost yet!

Hi congrats to all BFPS...Come on for a moan!!!! Just spoke to a friend of mine whos a bit older than me, she has a daughter of 18 whos now pg and just moving in to a house with her bf.My friend was concerned about telling me , which i appreciate.

But how come it seems to be soo easy for everyone else, apart from us lot, to firstly get pg , then secondarly stay pg....????

Its not fair!!!!! I try to stay positive but as you all know its soo hard!!!!!!!

Sorry for moaning its just ??????? CRAP...

Promise i will try and pick myself up mentally...Mantra to self "don t be such a whingey cow" Boring self!!!!

... and there I go sailing down to the bottom of the list. As predicted AF arrived late yesterday evening...

Why can't ovulation be as predictable as my f*cking period.

Chamo thinking of you and sending you a hundred positive vibes - all the ones I have, I certainly don't need them at the moment. Please try and be calm and like meita says drink lots

mrsr I know I will feel exactly the same .. if I ever get pregnant that is!

cheepz - keep hoping it's everyone's month - it's so shite when AF arrives. When mine comes this month, I think I'm going to investigate fertility treatments - whatever that entails - I just don't think I can bear it much longer.
My feeling is that I'm going to think positive and try hard this month, maybe hard work and positive vibes will do the trick.
chamois, sending you big hugs and hoping everything's ok. I hear so many stories of women who've bled a bit early on - hang in there and we're here for you whatever you need!
Welcome tigger, you'll find lots of great support on this thread.
Congrats on AF boodle, only a few months of fun practice BD and time to gear up for the fun of ttc again.
Mrs. R, think positive thoughts if you can (we will for you) I'm on the every other day BD schedule per your recommendation...

does anyone use the clearblue fertility monitor - have heard great things and am contemplating buying one - would rush out today but i think you have to start using it on day 1 of your cycle and i am on day 2 now!

zayja thanks xxxx to you and heres hoping this cycle will be the one.

too late i just ordered one - apparently you can start up until day5 of your cycle so why not - bloody expensive though - just another way for people to make money out of desparate women!!!!

Cheepz you beat me to it, was just about to say you can start up to day 5. I use one, am on Cycle 3 with it, so far so good, although not had the desired outcome... Yet! It does make you feel, or it did me, like you're doing something constructive! I also use the CBFM support group forum too, which might be some help or support.

Chamois I have everything crossed for you. It's not over yet and it is ok to bleed and
for it not to be bad. Sending lots of sticky lucky vibes your way.

Welcome Tigger, i echo the others, sorry you're here but glad you have found us all. The ladies on here are marvellous support and full of good advice.

Just a flying visit again, work and house move are taking over at the moment. Hope everyone is ok x
for it

oops! I dunno where the 'for it' bit came from!

Hey there,

cheepz I hope next cycle will be the one for you.

I am still waiting to ovulate. apples when you had lost ovulation, where did you find it again? Am starting to feel a bit destitute - seriously, how am I supposed to get pg without even ovulating? Is it normal to have several anovulatory cycles right after an (early) MC? I thought we were supposed to be more fertile, not less!

As Zayja said - I am thinking about seeing someone and having things checked out if indeed I don't ovulate again. I mean, maybe it's as simple as a cyst or something that stops me from ovulating, and it can be treated, so what would be the point in waiting?

I hope you all have a good start into the week!

barrenbrook thanks - I feel much better now its on its way - does feel like I am doing something proactive about it. I was using my persona which i have had for ages as contraception - but since thats designed for contraception it gives you a really wide window of when you could possible get pregnant as oppose to a really small window of when you are most likely to get pregnant

anyway despite parting with the cash - for the sticks and the monitor I do feel like I am taking steps to improve my chances!

meita tough for you to not know whats going on, your cycle may be messed up a little but worth talking to the GP to see if there are some tests they can run?

love to all

Thanks for the welcome. My UCL has changed to 31 after the mc (used to be 28/29) and I'm on CD 16. My BIL decided that yesterday was a good time to decide he was coming to stay with us for 2 days with no notice so BD a bit inhibited.

had to update so no longer on CD1 - can't bear it!! have updated your details too tigger

Hello all,
Sorry I haven't been around for a while.
Congrats to MrsR!!!!
Well, I THINK I've had my first period post mc. Had a few days of relatively light bleeding then (TMI alert) woke up one morning covered in blood, bed sheets covered. Never been that heavy before. Yuck.
However, it looks like DH and I can get back to BDing!!

Oh and hello to tigger ! From the tigerbear.

have had enough of having sex with a bloody condom on now....uuurrgggghhhh. so unromantic. me and DH are going to have the 'talk' tonight about TTC again. He says not til new year i say now. Doctor said as it was tubal EP and no methotrexate was used i don't have to wait 3 months and can TTC immediately after 1st period.

i think i'm ready to go bacck on the list girls.....CD5 UCL 28 cycle 1

[am shitting a brick now tho......]

oh and TTC#3

Whoohoo boodle! Good luck for the talk. You really seem to be doing much better already.
Here's you on the list (we can always take you off again of DH insists you should wait some more).

Meita, to answer your question, after the ERPC had 65 days without period. After AF arrival I started ov testing (peeing on sticks), until on day 26 the test showed a smiley face for ov. Pre mmc, I was UCL28, hitting ov on CD14, so this time it took longer for the ov to kick in. Maybe you're just coming up to yours now!!
