Anyone else excited to be TTC Until...

lemondrops · Feb 29th, 2012, 22:05 PM

Until the thought hits you that you COULD get pregnant again? I don't even know how I'm going to make it through the first trimester without being in a total panic attack the entire time. When I get my AF, I always have an "okay! Let's do this!" attitude. And then I get into the TWW and I spend the whole time replaying my miscarriage in my head, being terrified that it's going to happen again. I can only assume that fear is going to be 20X worse when I actually do get pregnant. I'll be 7DPO tomorrow and this was the first month that we did the SMEP (it's what got us pregnant on the first round last time). My temps have been high since my ovulation and tonight I'm feeling the first signs of sore boobs, but I don't want to look into anything too much.

Yep, I am the same. I have a good feeling about this month which I am sure will just hit me harder when AF arrives. I get so excited in the run up to ov then once I hit the 2ww I get all nervous and panicky and have real problems sleeping. One, becoause I want to see what my temps are doing and two, hoping that I will get the bfp yet worried at the same time -arrgh. I did get my bfp after first mc last year and I tried to stay calm and relaxed but it is impossible! I think you have to realise whatever the outome you will be nervous and scared, as many who get their bfp's are, and it is only natural to keep replaying event and being frightened.

Fx'd you get your bfp, just know each pg is different and will not necessarily result in the same outcome.

Hey hun, I know exactly what you mean. I had my mc at the end of Jan so this was our first month back ttc. AF is 3 days late now based on the ovulation kits I used, got sore boobs but no other symptoms. I'm holding out til Sat to do a HPT as scared what the result will be either way!

Fingers crossed you get your BFP soon!

I know what you mean. I feel the same way. I am currently waiting for my 2nd AF after m/c and secretly hoping that it doesn't come but then I remember what I went through last time and get a heavy feeling in my chest. I want so badly to fall pregnant again but scared at the same time. We have been TTC a few weeks after my m/c on Jan. 3rd and so far no luck. I am expecting

in 5 days but no sign of it yet but I don't have any other symptoms so I am not holding out much luck this month AGAIN.

Haven't tried SMEP before but thinking I will start trying after this AF. Then again, I am not even sure if I have ovulated since my m/c. So confusing.

Baby dust to you all!

I also know exactly what you mean! I am the same, right now I feel very anxious.

I want this so bad, but at the same time I am TERRIFIED that I will lose another little one!

BabyDust20 · Mar 1st, 2012, 09:59 AM

Same here hun, I think everyone ttc after a loss feels the same. My AF is due tomorrow but no sign of the witch yet! I'm crossing my fingers that she stays away but I'm scared too.. If no AF by monday morning I'm going tO do a hpt

mimi1979 · Mar 1st, 2012, 10:23 AM

I also feel the same way. I miscarried naturally at the end of January. AF arrived this past Saturday. I don't think I have ever been so happy to see AF in my life. I'm on cycle day 6 and am TTC again using the SMEP. BUT, a part of me is TERRIFIED of having another miscarriage. I think having a miscarriage truly robs you of the ability to enjoy your pregnancy. I am trying to be optimistic, but I know once I get pregnant again I will be a nervous wreck the entire time.

BabyDust20 · Mar 1st, 2012, 10:28 AM

I think you just have to try your best to try and stay positive. I'm feeling quite hopeful at the moment though

this will be my first AF after my natural chemical mc at the beggining of this month (IF AF comes) as instead of waiting a cycle me and OH started ttc straight away xx

lemondrops · Mar 1st, 2012, 11:49 AM

You all had a regular period so soon after your loss! Mine was at the beginning of October and things weren't normal until this month. But I did allow it to be a natural miscarriage, past 11 weeks and it was twins so I guess with my hormone levels being really high, it just took some more time. I really wish this month could count as that super fertile post m/c first month but I have a feeling that since it's been so long, my odds of getting a BFP are back down to everyone else at this point.

BabyDust20 · Mar 1st, 2012, 12:03 PM

I haven't had a period after mc yet Hun as I only miscarried on the 6th of feb and I started trying straight away, my AF is due tomorrow but I'm hoping she stays away fOr the next 9 months!! Xxx
