Miscarriage sept 1st- NTNP now

[mummof1]

So I just stopped spotting .. I had a MMC (baby was 8 weeks) and took misoprostol September 1st. The bleeding went on a little over a week then spotting up until a couple days ago. So in total around 17 days of bleeding/spotting.

I have felt ovulation pains/symptoms the past couple of days .
Hubby had been saying that he isn't ready to try and wants to wait a couple of months but then last night we DTD heat of the moment not using any protection ...
Im a little worried it isn't safe to try yet but at the same time hoping we get pregnant again .

I like that we aren't really thinking about it , just enjoying each other but I will probably want to take a pregnancy test now in a few weeks if I don't get a period !
Should I expect my period in a couple of weeks ?

My period came exactly 21 days after I stopped bleeding completely, which is normal for me since I typically have 27 day cycles and usually bleed for 6 of those days. I would say to expect it around the time you'd normally get a period. Good luck on ttc again! Fx everything works out for you next time!

Mummof1, sorry again for your loss and fingers crossed for you to fall pregnant quickly. I am wanting to start again ASAP too (mc on the 11th). I have actually looked online quite a bit about the reason to wait for a full cycle and it seems to me the biggest reason is for dating purposes. I have a question out to my doc about the same thing so I will let you know what they tell me.

 

[mummof1]

Sorry for your loss

Yes let me know what they say , I mentioned it to my OB and she basically said your body won't support a pregnancy if it isn't ready but there's no harm in trying .

I'm now having EWCM that's tinged with a dull browny/pink .. Maybe leftover blood from the miscarriage ?
I'm also having a strong pain on my right side that I would normally get during ovulation.

 

[Mdc]

Mumm, I would guess maybe some left over blood. Are you getting your HCG levels checked or just taking pregnancy test to get a negative (before hopefully a sticky positive one ). I am still waiting to hear back from my doc. Ugh!

 

[mummof1]

They didn't even offer to check my hcg levels ... I had a follow up ultrasound this past Friday and I see my OB tomorrow for the results.. I'm going to ask about that though.
I haven't taken a pregnancy test , for some reason I just really don't want too

I'll let you know what my doc says about TTC and hcg levels tomorrow !

 

[Mdc]

Thanks and good luck tomorrow! My doc did not say I needed a follow up (not sure if I totally agree) but just told me to take a pregnancy test about every week and if they do not go down to call. Last Friday (one week after) I used an estimator test and I said 2-3 weeks so since I was 10 weeks I hope that is good. Testing again on Friday, and hoping for a negative. Which is so weird after praying for a positive for so long. The doc did get back to me today and said TTC when you are ready, so I think we are going to try straight away. Although we had to use and IUI last time to get our first positive, hoping for a small miracle before our RE appt.

I know the feeling about not wanting to take a pregnancy test.... my heart sank when it still said pregnant 2 weeks later, it was so weird. Now it's like a game to see when I get a blank one. Mine is taking its sweet time. My period still hasn't come 4.5 weeks later, but I did O 1.5 weeks ago, so hoping it come this weekend at 5 weeks. I say take a test when you would expect your period (2 weeks after O) and your old hormones should be gone.

 

[mummof1]

It's so weird to go from constantly testing hoping for a positive to then testing hoping for a negative I think that's why I haven't tested at all but I'm curious to know if my hormones are back to normal !

I have such a different approach on TTC and testing now too... I remember feeling SO confident when my BFPs got darker and darker and I had them early before my period was due .
It all seems SO irrelevant now eh?
GL to both of you, praying we all get our healthy babies soon

Hey mummof1 - I am sorry to hear about your loss. My doc said that AF can come anywhere from 3-6 weeks. She also asked that I wait for one cycle before I try. I miscarried late August. AF hasn't come yet, but I think it is close.

My fiancé and I been careful with the exception of one time...like you. It happens . I figured if I do not see AF in the next two weeks I'll be testing as well since I suspect she should be here within a week anyway. I've been experiencing PMS.

Yes, my mind would be at ease if I had AF before officially trying only because my doc asked me to wait - but if my "ooops" moment results in a viable pregnancy I'm okay with that too.

I had a follow-up appointment with my Dr yesterday and everything looks good. So I'm not worried.

Baby dust to you.

I did the same thing.. not relevant at all! Makes me want to miss my period and test a month after AF is supposed to be due the next time. All that stress is just not worth it. Hope we all get our healthy babies soon too!

Thank you!!
Sending dust your way as well
I feel like we shouldn't stress and just let whatever be , be!

Update us if you get AF or maybe a BFP

I keep saying I'm going to wait until I'm like three weeks late to test !

I got my ultrasound results today and all that was leftover was 7mm of tissue which I think I passed a few days ago with some spotting.

So I feel so anxious to try again !
I think I ovulated already .. Like I said, we did DTD a couple of times but I'm thinking I will probably get AF and then we will just see what happens.
