A group for TTC#1 and had more than one loss?

[Neversaynever]

Lady...maybe you have a really short surge and that's why you missed it? My first experience using the opk I tested every morning like it said on the box and it never gave me a smiley face and I for pregnant that month I've since used them and test two maybe three times a day to make sure I don't miss it as I was getting positives in the afternoon and night not the morning

Anyway...fair play to you for holding off the testing and I hope that this is your BFP that's sticks

XxX

 

[Ladyfog]

NSN - I've been rubbish at doing the OPKs at the same time every day so I think it's quite likely I've just missed my surge each time. I should probably save my money and stop buying them!

Cracked this morning and took the HTP I had in the bathroom cabinet but it was a . It wasn't an early response one though so if AF isn't due yet it was way too early. I kind of knew that but couldn't resist (I was feeling weak at 6am this morning!). I thought it was worth a go as my cycles used to be 28 days but if I O'd at 16 days this time my cycle's more likely to be nearer to 32 days now .

I still have lots of CM, which I've never had before AF, but tummy feels a bit more achey so really don't know what to think. From being almost certain I'm starting to doubt myself now I think I have to be ready for and I'll get a CB digi in town tomorrow and test on Tuesday morning if still no sign. That'll tell me for sure.

Lady...sorry you got a BFN this morning don't go wasting your money on a digital until you get a good BFP on a normal test. I've known people get a not pregnant and it's been a false negative

Hoping the witch stays away

Just getting into a warm bath to ease the pains.
Feeling quite sorry for myself.

Hi ladies.

I love this thread. Thanks for starting it hun

I'm Amy, TTC #1 since November of 2010. Have had 2 miscarriages. 1st was a missed miscarriage. Baby passed at 7w5d, we didn't find out until a 10 week ultrasound, and had a D&C 2 weeks later when I would've been 12 weeks. My EDD for that pregnancy is coming up in 3 days (Wed, 9/28)

2nd pregnancy was an early miscarriage at 5w2d. My body just couldn't hold onto the baby I guess.

I'm trying soy this cycle, as my cycles have been long. I estimate anywhere from 35-37 day cycles, with ovulation happening on CD 21-23. It's definitely gotten longer since my D&C in March.

Hope to get know you ladies better.

Hi Amy,

Welcome! Sorry for your losses but you've found a great place for support.

Hi Tweak,

Welcome! Sorry for your losses but you've found a great place for support.

Thanks hun I've been struggling a lot lately, so I'm glad to find a group with people who know what I'm going through.

 

[cazi77]

woop woop! Think i'm about to ovulate 16 days after the bleeding started for my m/c. I think I have a short surge tho CD15 was nearly pos then CD16 was this am at 10am and was very clearly +ve and the bottom was one taken this evening and it was very -ve. Fingers crossed I get a sticky one this month.

to everyone looking forward to seeing some BFP soon xxxx

NTAT - I'm so sorry your loss was confirmed Look after yourself.
Whatever you chose to do regarding your loss is a very personal decision but if u have started bleeding and cramping maybe it's best to just let it happen naturally.
From personal experience unless my life was endangered I wouldn't let a dr do a d&c (erpc) on me ever again. I had a d&c with both my losses and they think I lost my second because of the scarring caused by my first d&c. D&C is a blind procedure on your one and only reproductive organ. As an Asherman's sufferer ( a diagnosis that will effect the rest of my reproductive life) I have to warn against d&c. But of course it is your decision and I am and would never judge your decision. I just like women to be informed of the risk because most dr's don't tell you how common asherman's is, the stat is like 30% of woman who have had more 1 or more d&c's can have this issue.

My thoughts are with you and again I'm so sorry for the pain your going through.


Good luck to all of those in the TWW and Ladyfrog I hope you get your BFP very soon.

Welcome Amy!

[Ladyfog]

NTAT - take care of yourself. At least you don't have to go into hospital - the body is an amazing thing and knows what it had to do. Thinking of you.

Welcome Tweak!

Good luck any ladies just about to O or waiting to test. I'm giving up of the idea that this is my month, AF any day now but overcome with pessimism at the moment. Just going to wait and see - went a bit crazy and obsessed for a couple of days - crazy how it drags you in!

Hope everyone has a good (or as good as they can be) week.

There's no such thing as TMI in the world of TTC I have heard that a lot of CM is a good sign so fingers are crossed

Tweak in a nice way of course I am glad you found this thread...it's hard trying to be positivr after one loss but after two so we all need to lean on each other and we will all get there

Justwaiting...how are you doing? I'm not sure if the ERPC is slightly different to the D+C...I think it is less evasive and uses suction rather than scraping? Either way...it's good to be reminded of these things because I know for me...I had totally forgotten and just wanted it to be over...maybe next time I'll let nature do the job

Welcome Amy!

We all know that feeling and it's completely normal I'm sorry you are feeling out...not out till the nasty witch sings

AFM...blah

[Ladyfog]

Patiently - meant to say this morning that for both my previous pregnancy lots of CM has been one of my major symptoms - in fact I often feel pretty symptomless apart from that so could be a good sign!

The plot thickens for me - was certain AF was about to start, wiped and though 'yes, here we go' as there was a bit of brown on TP and then all day there's only been a tiny bit quite pale brown blood! I've never had implantation bleeding, but this could be it! So from feeling really pessimistic this morning there's a glimmer of hope again! I have no cramps, I'm really bloated and I'm feeling pretty damp down there again so who knows what's going on! As NSN said, it's not over until AF turns up

 

[NewToAllThis]

Fx'd for you Ladyfog.
I had implantation bleeding with my first preg, right when AF was due.
Thought it was a light AF, only to discover two weeks later that I was pregnant

 

[justwaiting]

I hope it is implantation bleeding Ladyfrog fingers and toes crossed for you.

NSN - A ERPC and a D&C are pretty much the same, I think it depends on the country your in. my first D&C was a suction D&C and it's what caused the Ashermans.
Anyway how r u going?

 

[Ladyfog]

Good morning ladies. Just a quick update - looks like turned up last night Feel a bit foolish for letting myself believe and get a bit excited yesterday, but comforting myself with the thought that least my first proper cycle after AF turned up on time so it looks like things are back on track and working OK. Now just trying to not let those negative thoughts creep in about still not being pregnant etc etc!!

Hope everyone else is OK. Have a good day everyone

Hi ladies Id like to join the thread. My sigi should be attached.. I had an ethical termination at 17 weeks as baby had downs syndrome and also a severe heart defect detected at 16.. We also had 3 miscarriages last year all at 5 weeks...everything for myself and oh comeback negative including karotyping.
With the last pregnancy I started aspirin and also was started on thyroxine tablets for a slight underactive thyroid.( my thyroid levels were at the low end of normal and I have thyroid antibodies present which attack the thyroid gland., untreated the thyroid antibodies will attack the whole thyroid and leave it non functioning..) some experts thinking is thar if there are elevated levels of thyroid antibodies present that they also attack the growing fetus and recognise it like the thyroid gland as a foreign body...
So who knows it could be the aspirin or thyroxine... Or just that this pregnancy was stronger...

We are currently ttc #1 I just turned 40 in July when we lost our little angel... It's been hard times and recently oh has been talking of moving out for a month so he can get some head space.. The past 2 yrs have been tough on us both...I am trying to relax an not let my stress levels escalate... We women really do bear the brunt..
I've been feeling pretty shity of late. Needed to vent.. Hope I don't sound like a basket case... I feel I do.. Normally beforeall of this torture I am the most laid back person..
