Cycle After Chemical

[Luckybug]

I just had a chemical last cycle, at the advice of my doctor I was going to wait at least a month, if not until January to ttc again.

My husband had other ideas. He was meticulously careful before, but after some googling concluded that he wasn't so worried about being careful now. What he claims was an "accident" I know otherwise. (And timed exactly 14 days after my bleed started)

I can't get mad at his enthusiasm because he feels that at least he won't wonder if we missed an opportunity. Even if I know he's filling me full of a bunch of crock. He wants one as badly as I do!

I'm not testing until I'm five days late, but I know that I will be excited as soon as my period is late. I don't know if I could bear to get my hopes up again so soon. I had ewcm around the same time as I normally do in the cycle, should I expect this one to go normally? I would have asked my doctor if I hadn't been set on waiting!

But what was your experiences? Did you ovulate later, earlier? Did you go right back to normal?

I'm so sorry for your loss--I completely understand how terrifying it is to start trying again. I had a very early miscarriage in December 2013 and it definitely mucked up my cycle in January. My doctor actually cleared us to TTC again as soon as I got a negative on an HPT, so we did. Then in January, my period was 3 or 4 days late. I knew I wasn't pregnant, just based on symptoms, but of course I tested like crazy lol. I never used OPKs, because my cycle was very regular, and I had pains around ovulation, so I was pretty confident of the dates. So--since my period was late the next cycle, I have to assume I ovulated late. By the time AF finally arrived, I wasn't even disappointed anymore about the BFNs, I was just relieved to move forward. Then in February we got our BFP, and now have an almost 3 week old little boy. : )

I hope you can get some peace about moving forward, and I hope you get your sticky BFP very, very soon!! : )

I can't help but just want it to go right back to normal, and I think it may have, but at the moment I'm having some spotting, which matches the implantation spotting I had last cycle.

It makes me super nervous 1. That I might be pregnant and 2. that the same thing might happen. However, my spotting this time is pink rather than the brown of last cycle. Either AF is coming super early or this is it.

I also had a chemical last cycle and was told to wait til after my next period to TTC again. We've not had sex yet since the MC because we were on holiday with DS sleeping in our bed, and just got home on Tuesday afternoon and have been too exhausted since (and last night I wasn't feeling well).

Based on EWCM, I'm pretty sure I ovulated either yesterday or today (but I'm not temping this cycle so I don''t know for sure), so that's day 17 of my cycle, when I've ovulated on day 12 or 13 since I had my iud taken out in August...

I completely understand you're nervous. No way to know until time for AF. When I got my BFP in February, I was a complete wreck worrying that I would lose him, too. I think that's natural to worry in general, and especially after a loss. But just because it happens once does not mean it is going to happen again. I hope you find some answers and some peace about the whole situation. : )

I had loads of sticky cm yesterday, and now am completely dry as the sahara. Needed assistance when hubs felt like fooling around earlier.

Eyes are dry, skin is dry, face is breaking out.

Last month I had copius amounts of cm after Oing.

I guess panic has set in in regards to paying attention to my cm. My body is so so weird at the moment.

In regards to everything though, I feel a lot better lately about it. My husband, though a jerk is amazing, and wonderful and dead set on not ever letting me give up! We'll see how the rest of this month goes, and I'm taking notes just incase I have another cp again I'll know what to expect from the next cycle.
