First AF after MC

[NikiJJones]

Well the got me for the first time since my MC in the early hours of this morning. I know this is good as I can start TTC properly again now, but I'm feeling really down as I was so sure I was PG again for the last week. All the symptoms were back and I just never get PMS, so can't put it down to that. I'm wondering whether the MC has caused my body to get funny pre-menstrual symptoms?
It's all a bit horrible too, as it brings back so many memories, seeing the blood. Feels like a real set-back emotionally. I'm very tearful again this morning.
I'm just hoping the isn't too heavy or painful once she's in full flow, but I gather she can be first one after MC.

You poor thing, I know what you mean about feeling pregnant but I honestly think it is your mind that plays tricks on you. I so desperately wanted to be pregnant before my first af after that I had convinced myself I had all the signs. I was wrong of course and so I know how you feel.

Like you said though the positive side is that it is the begininng of ttc again and you have a starting point hun xxx

wish it wasn't so difficult for you both.....i know how it feels as i was so positive that i was pregnant in that first month after mc, but it wasn't to be. It does bring back all of the memories, and it is heart-breaking all over again.

Here's a hug for each of you, and i am so sorry that you are going through this pain.

luv & hugs

Hi, hope your feeling ok. I have had funny symptoms as well its amazing what a m/c can do to your body. Once the first AF is out of the way you will be fine, when I got mine I went all funny as it just brought back all the horrible memories seeing the blood, I thought I was going to faint! xx

I can totally relate to you.

I was really relieved to see her for a change after mine.

See it as a new and exciting beginning darling.

Good luck and take care xx

Thanks girls for all your kind words of support. It is a bit of a nasty one this time, but some of you also seem to have found that. Let's hope all's now back to normal.
Had a tearful morning, but feeling much better now. Been online and ordered my OPKs and Preseed and stuff so I'm all armed and ready to go this cycle.
Thing is: before the MC I thought I was desperate for a baby. Now I'm even more desperate. Wouldn't have thought that possible, but all things are relative I guess.

Sorry that your day started off rotten. I can relate also, the memories tend to linger more than anthing physical. Last time, I felt icky for a few cycles just for that very same reason. But it sounds like you've already started to pick yourself up again and thats good. Now that your proper launch to TTC has begun... who knows could be next cycle right? Good luck with TTC and let me know if you need anything.

When we first started TTC I never really thought about it, it would just happen when it happened. Now after m/c I am desperate for a baby. My AF was very heavy (normally light) but I think thats just our bodies trying to get back to normal. xx

I felt exactly the same. We agreed after trying for our first baby together, it took nearly 3 yrs, we drove ourselves mad and said we would take it easy this time and just see how it went. Well since the m/c I am just feeling desperate.

Our bodies definitely play tricks on us hun

I was convinced I was preg 1st cycle since losing Sophie & was inconsolable for 2 days when AF showed up.

It's so unfair isn't it? but I think once you've been pregnant it makes you realise just how badly you want to become a mother & it's really heartbreaking when you find out you're not

Hopefully we won't have to wait too much longer tho
