im just an hour south of perth, near mandurah... its just starting to get chilly here, we were starting to think summer was going to last forever.

Im not known for my patience either lol

 

[KiwiGal]

Lol Ariesmom, my DH would be the same. Fingers crossed we all get our this month and you wont need to buy the cbfm

Sheri, my mum grew up in Wembley but she left about 45 years ago to work in NZ for a bit but ended up staying when she met my Dad

Been away from the computer for the weekend

Sheri76 - I'm in Perth too (well about 20 mins north).

Been dying to get on here all weekend, totally stressed out. This is my first cycle since my miscarriage at 12 weeks, I had what i assumed was my AF last Monday only lasted 36 hours but was bright red although not very heavy, i really expected it to be worse. Then Friday night i had some slightly brown tinged CM which lasted a few hours and then saturday I had one episode of very watery brown tinged CM.

Now my bbs are really hurting and DH even pointed out that they are looking huge, so its not just in my imagination. I have done a First Response and BFN, so now i am confused, was that my AF?? Well in my cycle am I?? I just want my BFP again!!! I wish i could just know whats going on inside me so frustrating!!

Has anyone else had issues with thier cycle after a misscarriage??

 

[KiwiGal]

Hi Ozziemum, sorry for your loss Sorry I don't know about periods following a mc. Did your doctor give you any advice? Could you go and get a blood test done just to be sure either way?

 

[Ozziemum]

Hay

I had to have a D&C because it was a missed miscarriage. The doctor said that i would bleed between 4 and 12 weeks and to keep taking prenatal vitamins and carry on as normal. I started what i assumed was AF exactly a month to the day of my D&C and although it wasn't very heavy like i thought it would be, i thought that maybe it was because things were a bit thin from the procedure and i didn't have much to 'lose'. I know that my hormones had definately dropped to almost 0 10 days following the D&C, so i was hoping i would be back on track quite quickly.

No one really has an answer to these things i guess!! I just wanted to rant!! Thanks for listening

I just really want to know where i am so that i at least have a good shot this month its driving me nuts

How r u going, when do you expect to be ovulating? I don't know whats worse, waiting to ovulate or the damn 2WW afterwards!!!!

 

[KiwiGal]

Rant away hun that's what these forums are for. I have seen on here that women have had miscarriages then got pregnant again quickly so anything is possible. Fingers crossed this is our month

I only started temping last month so how accurate it all is I'm not too sure. I'm CD6 today and according to FF I ov'd on CD16 last month so going by that I should OV on Friday 13 ekkkk is that a good thing or a bad thing? lol

I got my preseed on the weekend so all ready to go

I hate all the waiting but I think the 2WW is worse cos it's the not knowing and guessing. And you seem to be so intune with your body when TTC that every twinge, pain, etc you think ooooo this could be it.

 

[Ozziemum]

Thanks, i'm new to all this forum stuff but its so good to talk to people who get how your feeling!!

I sooo badly want this to be my month, even though everyone would say "its too soon", i just feel completely ripped off as i should be 18 weeks today instead i am still trying to work out when the hell i am ovulating

If i continue to assume that was AF on 25th then i am on CD8 and due to Ov around Monday 9th ish, just gonna keep checking that CM everyday and BDing like mad.

I haven't tried temping or preseed yet, but i know if i don't get that BFP very soon i will be willing to try anything


I know exactly what you mean about the 2WW and the symptom spotting, it drives me nuts as i am sure half of it is phycosymatic (not sure i spelt that right) When i was trying the last time, the first month i was sure i had every symptom under the sun, and then AF arrived on time, i must have done 5 tests all BFN and still convinced myself this was it!! Then the second month i had nothing, or at least didn't notice anything and voila!!

Fingers crossed for both of us

 

[KiwiGal]

Temping is good to find an overall pattern as it usually tells you after the fact that you have Ovulated so that's why I did it last month as this is our first month of proper TTC. You have the right idea checking cm and most ppl on here suggest BDing every other day.

I was convinced I was pregnant last month even though we only did it once during the 'right' time. My temp chart looked exactly like the one I had when I got my bfp but

How long have you been TTC?

 

[Ozziemum]

Hay, we have been TTC #3 for over a year. I had a bfp in April last year and then had an early miscarriage, i then had another bfp in June last year and another early miscarriage. We decided to stop for a while and i came off bc in November 10, had a bfp in January this year and that ended in the missed miscarriage at 12 weeks. Don't seem to have problems getting the bfp, its the staying pregnant part that is the issue.

I am not feeling positive at all this month, i have lost all hope of even knowing when i am going to ovulate even though i am still checking CM, i'll just be glad when AF comes so that i can start to figure things out properly, i might start temping from next month to.

Are you trying to conceive #2? How long did it take you to conceive #1? I had bfp's with both my son and daugther straight away and perfect pregnancies, thought i had this baby thing all sewn up, just goes to show you!!

 

[KiwiGal]

Yes, number 2 for us. It took 7 months to get pregnant with number 1 but I didn't start temping until my fourth cycle so I didn't have any idea before then of when I was Ovulating. I'm hoping it doesn't take that long again but you just never know.

Checking cm is always a good idea, hope you see some signs soon! The whole not knowing is just so frustrating. Seeing as you have been trying for over a year can you see a fertility specialist? Or is that only if you haven't had children? Sorry, not sure how these things work.

 

[rollerchick]

hi girls ttc no. 2 here.cd 14 bout 4 more to o hopefully. hi ozzie mum had an early misscarriage before ds and got a heavy period 6 weeks later then back to normal

 

[KiwiGal]

Hi RollerChick Good luck, hope this is your bfp cycle How long have you been TTC #2?

I'm CD10 and 6 more days

 

[rollerchick]

hi kiwi gal its just cycle no. 2 but was ntnp since jan.ds is 9 months on mon. wat age is yours

 

[KiwiGal]

My little guy is 17 months tomorrow. We have been NTNP for 17 months, started temping last month to see where I'm at and this cycle is our 1st TTC

 

[rollerchick]

they grow up so fast. this is our second month using the oks. thats all i used the last time and it took 5 months. hopefully quicker this time

 

[KiwiGal]

I tried using them first time around but never got a +ve so not sure what I was doing wrong but one of the ladies on here said I should have tried using them twice a day.

How are the rest of you ladies doing? Aries, sheri, hpjagged, ozziemum - hope things are ticking along nicely for you all. Are we all waiting for ov? Then 2WW *sigh* Roll on the end of this month!!!

 

[rollerchick]

hi kiwigal used them once a day last time but this time twice which is expensive. cd 16 waiting to o no sign yet

 

[Ozziemum]

Hay Girls

Still waiting to OV, i think, not even really sure what day i'm on although i was thinking i might be due for it around now, yesterday as very crampy but CM was still creamy and definately not stretchy and same today , maybe tomorrow???

Kiwigal- I'm not sure about the fertility specilist. When i had the third misscarriage the Obgyn said they wouldn't even be checking for genetic problems and such as me and my husband had managed two pefectly healthy children before all this, she seemed to think this was all 'just bad luck'


Rollerchick - sorry for your loss, thanks for the advice maybe i just need that AF to come and get everything working normally again, its been 6 weeks and 3 days so who knows maybe these cramps are me getting ready for my visit!

 

[rollerchick]

well girls still waiting to o. so frustrating

 

[hpjagged]

Somethings wrong with my cbfm!!
I'm on cd15 and STILL showing LOW. But yet getting cm.
