Looking for TTC buddies after MC

[BabyBrain80]

I just followed the hcg progress down on hpt's. It got lighter and lighter on 10iu ic's until it finally disappeared. I tried 2 frer's aswell but that was my confusion last week, they still showed a faint line but they are more sensitive apparently. (But folks have said they get bad evaps & indents....the lines were within the time tho) but at least I knew it was going down. Its frustrating but nature does take its own time and my body has been healing. X

Thanks ladies. May invest in some ICs as not fussed on wasting money on expensive ones with the hope of seeing bfn only time we ever want to see just 1 line huh!!

Had left sided pains yesterday randomly through the day... temp went from 36.26 to 36.64 .. actually wondering if I'll O soon read online some ladies getting pregnant within the first two weeks of a mc so it cant be impossible. Not necessarily rushing it but in some ways it would be nice. My concern i guess is my body will have had no time to get back to "normal"

Mother nature is clearly not being kind to me.. after all the upset I am now full up with a cold and i suspect tonsilitus
Hang in there poppie! Tww is such a frustrating time.

W8ting.. hope your bloods come back normal and you can get going again.

Yeap it's weird looking for a BFN, upsetting but it's kind of a relief too, definitly in my case as it took so long!! Hope you get there quickly Mrs x

ANL were you testing today? I've done 2 ic's fmu & 2nd with a long hold and both bfn. 9dpo.

 

[mrsmummy2]

I'm so clueless with all these things and of course wish I would've never needed to know these things. Although the dr's at the epu and my gp were really kind, they weren't exactly informative.
I didn't have my levels tested before the MC, so the first one (Which was done after a huge blood loss) was only 470 (which he did say was extremely low for 7 weeks) is there a general sort of rule to say the lower they are the quicker they come down? or is it pretty random? All I got told is that it's a good sign mine had dropped by so much in just 3 days. I just assumed that if it dropped by over half in 3 days, then the remaining 45 would drop pretty quick.

 

[BabyBrain80]

I would hope so but Honestly I dont know for sure how quickly its supposed to drop and from what Ive read some ladies drop to 0 in a couple of weeks, some take 8 weeks and these were all early losses.
Its easy to get all wound up about it, wanting it to be gone asap but please dont stress yourself....Ive been there. With my other losses its been around 4-6 weeks to get a negative test. Never known my numbers. Only had bloods done with the first one and never asked.
This one was longer but from passing the retained tissue its been a similar time frame. Can you ask at your gp practice for a nurse appointment to get hcg checked again? Put your mind at rest xx

 

[mrsmummy2]

Thanks babybrain. Good idea. Will try to get an appointment

 

[BabyBrain80]

I totally understand how you feel
Ive been so angry that my body isn't working properly but I guess it was doing the correct things at its own pace.

Hcg was 7 today.....yay.....so anything from here on if I get a positive will be a new pregnancy, now I have no clue when the heck to test next. I have read that most say count the day the miscarriage/bleeding as the first day of period so if I do that I believe I will test in about 10 days. Would love to get a bfp right away but we shall see.
Good luck mrs, I would think they would be monitoring your levels to be certain they go down, I know things are different in every country though too. Hope you get answers soon

 

[mrsmummy2]

Yay w8ting! I bet thats a relief. Was yours very high to begin with? (Sorry if youve already said that)
Good luck! Hope you get your bfp asap!

babybrain- I’m a nutshell and tested yesterday AND today so 9&10dpo. Stark white negative with a FRER at that! I need a beer with all of this stress of waiting! I had a vvvvf at 9dpo with my last pregnancy so kind of feeling bummed. For a little hope I did have a dream last night that I got my BFP on FR and then later that day took the digital and got my “pregnant”. Had this dream last pregnancy too and I found out a day or so later I was pregnant!

How are you ladies doing?

I hope you get your bfp soon! I’m not sure but would opk’s belp determine ovulation in your case?

 

[W8tingforbaby]

My hcg the last time tested just before my miscarriage was 426 and that was done 2 weeks ago.
Anl- think I ovulated already so Now just in the waiting game. I’ll probably test in the next week to week and a half

 

[ANL25]

Keep us posted. I truly hope you get that bfp! Waiting is so agonizing.

 

[BabyBrain80]

ANL there's still time so fx. I had to look back on my ap and I got bfp's on 10 & 12dpo with last 2 pregnancies. I really can't remember with the others, getting confused these days lol. There is still hope for both of us!

W8ting, that's great news, got my fingers crossed for you too

 

[ANL25]

I’m sure I’ll test again tomorrow, and if negative, again the following day. Lol it’s a never ending cycle!! Hahaha. Once I start, I can’t stop!

Fingers crossed!!

I got bfps with all mine around 10dpo, which would be Monday I think. Resisting the urge to test earlier. I'm a little crampy this morning, which I hope is a good sign.

 

[ANL25]

Thanks Poppie! The temptation to test is real! Fingers crossed for you!!!!

I tested yet Aagain today w/FRER @11dpo- BFN starting to accept this month isn’t my month!

Hi ladies sorry I haven't posted for a while I have just been so busy this week. At least that has kept my mind off of the tww! AF is due tuesday which is DS's bday. I can't believe my little man is 3! Symptoms so far are sore bbs and fatigue. Could just be PMS, guess I will know in a few days. Thursday last week was tough as it was my would have been due date from my loss in July. Anyway welcome to the new ladies. I am sorry for your losses and I hope you get sticky bfps soon!

 

[mrsmummy2]

Good luck flou

 

[Poppiebug]

I caved and tested today, 10dpo and nothing conclusive - I dunno, I think I just have serious line eye, wishing and hoping for it to be there. Bring on tomorrow morning.
