TTC #1 After A Loss

[wannabemamaz]

Hey ladies,

Hubby and I just decided today to TTC again. I found out I was pregnant on February 1 and lost our peanut on Feb 23. I should have been about 7 weeks along. This was our first pregnancy.

We took a break and now we decided to start trying again. I'm super nervous about miscarrying again but I'm also super excited for the journey! I have been taking my prenatals for about 3 months now and have lost lost weight and started working out. The first time around it took us 3 months to get a BFP so I'm hoping it will be soon that we get another! Anyone in a similar boat and want to be my buddy? I'm CD8 today.

A bit of history for me.. I'm 25, Canadian, been with hubby for 7 years in November.. Married 4 years next week!!

Join me while I obsess over my cycle!!

Hi! My situation is quite similar - I found out that I was pregnant in the middle of February and had a D&C in the middle of march... I had blighted ovum (no baby, but growing gestational sac) and didn't know it until I was 7 weeks.

We'll be trying again for baby #1 in September!

Hi there. I'm very sorry for your loss.

I got pregnant in very early March and had a MMC at 9w. I've had a CP since then. We were going back and forth -- try now or try in September? Screw it! We're trying now and O day is tomorrow. I'm CD12 so not too far ahead of you.

Feeling confident this month. I want an April baby! Good luck!

Oh Anya.. I'm sorry for what you've been through. That must have been so difficult. You must be so excited to TTC again! Where are you in your current cycle? One more month!! I hope you stick around. Are you doing anything to prepare?

Welcome cupcake!! Sorry for your loss.. Isn't it just the worst? But we can and will get our BFPs again and they will be sticky beans this time! How long did it take you to get pregnant? Good luck this month! Will you be testing at a specific time? Let me know any symptoms you have!

So happy to have both you girls!! Lets take this journey together!!

I am so sorry for your loss!

I got pregnant after trying for 3 months as well, and then we discovered I had a blighted ovum. My late DH and I never were able to conceive after that, but now I am trying with my current OH. We are in our 4th cycle. I am probably about 4dpo right now. Never got a positive OPK.. and wasn't super diligent about taking them.. so just going off of past knowledge

sorry for your loss

I had a loss at 4 weeks in Feb, TTC again right away and got another BFP in March- but had a MMC with that one in May. We are TTC once again- have had to AF since the last loss.

Im currently at CD 10 I usually ov at about cd14 so hopefully soon!

oh and im Canadian too- where abouts are you from?

Hi there!
We lost our baby girl at 9 weeks a little over 2 weeks ago. I should be ovulating any day now but we are waiting out this cycle and then will try again the next. I just want to be pregnant again

Hi Bug and Akn! Nice to see you in this thread

wannabemamaz: It took us 4 months for the first pregnancy. For the second, we got pregnant right away. I tend to implant early so I expect to test around 8 or 9dpo. Also if I notice anything peculiar I'll let you know, but I'll try my darnest not to symptom spot as usual

 

[wannabemamaz]

Welcome to all the ladies!! I'm thrilled to have you all here! I'm so sorry for all your losses. Let's make this a positive and uplifting group..let's all get our sticky BFPs soon!!!

Yay cupcake! Our cycles are so close!! I will defs be symptom spotting.. After taking a break for 5 months I can't WAIT to look at every little thing! Haha

Stay- good plan to wait this cycle. How are you doing these days? I know what you mean about just wanting to be pregnant again.. Hang in there girl.

Bug - I'm in Alberta! I see you are in BC? So fun!!

 

[aknqtpie]

I ordered a bunch of wondfos that should be here tomorrow.. I'll probably start testing Tuesday... Because I can lol

hey ladies. how are you all doing?

I am CD14 today.. yesterday morning right after midnight i had very distinct ovulation pains. i woke up with cramping just on my left side. they lasted for about 10 minutes. we had BD'd just a few hours before that.. then we BD'd again last night. it seems early to me that i would have ovulated so early on CD13.. but who knows. i read online that once you get those pains you will ovulate within 12 hours and then the egg sits there for around 24. has anyone heard the same info? i'm not classifying myself as 1DPO yet. i'm waiting to see if i get EWCM and then will probably call that O Day.. The cycle I got pregnant we hadn't BD'd much. then i got a large amount of EWCM. We BD'd right away and that was all it took to get pregnant that month.. (i can't recall the other times we BD'd but they weren't very close to being around that time).

 

[aknqtpie]

I usually go by my OPKs to determine when I ovulate. But I never got a positive this time around, so not sure if/when I did ovulate.

I took a cheapie test today.. BFN.. I am around 8-9dpo (going by history)... so who knows. If I don't get a BFP this cycle, I might start temping.

Hi !!

I'm in the same position . I mc last month and not entirely sure when i ovulated but I think it was the 28th July. I'd be 9dpo now. I'm so ill with a head cold and sore throT since Saturday. My boobs hurt for 3 days and I felt twinges in my lower right abdomen. We DTD about the time my OPKs were dark, but I'm not sure. I feel like my AF is on her way. I'm crampy, gasey and visiting the loo a lot. Sorry if TMI. I tested to see if I got a BFP this morning but I see nothing other than my eyes playing tricks on me. My hubby thinks there's a line, but I think we are just wishing it to exist. Ah well. Also I'd like to mention I too had a Blighted Ovum. Was a huge shock especially as I conceived immediate we started trying. Good luck ladies xx

 

[aknqtpie]

Were you on birth control right before you started trying Chrissi?

 

[Chrissi1981]

Yikes well spotted I failed to mention this. No I wasn't. I stopped taking the pill nearly 8 years ago as it caused me to have issues with my skin.

 

[aknqtpie]

Ahh ok. Both my friend and I hated blighted ovums around the same time. We both got pregnant 3 months coming off of the pill. I am pretty certain there is a correlation there. :-/
