Ttc after d&c

[Bentlee]

hi all i new to this site, i had a d&c 25/08.11 i was bleeding for a week and my dr tols me i could start tryin strait away again after i had stoped bleeding, now 6mnth down the line and still waiting for my bfp, my periods are normaly regular as clock wor every 28days and ov every month except the last three months my periods have been every 33days and i havent ov i had a 21day bloods done at docs 2day to see if im ov and to check for polycistic ov too, so waiting for result to come back for that, BUT i need help on this next bit guys so please bare with me, if i was on my normal 28day period id be due in 7 day buh if i was to go by my 33 day period then id be due on in 12days, i took a pregnancy test today (dunno y it was there and i supose it was jus habbit cause of the amount i take each month silly i kno) and thinking to myself y im even doing this for when we all kno its gonna come up with a big fat NO, well after two mins a faint line apeared (the test was one of those bule clear test the one with the cross for a possative for those who kno what i mean) and looking at the test now its even more clearer, i took the test around 1pm, i got all excited and happy then it dawned on me this couldnt be right im not due on for another 7-12days so i went and brought a clear blue digi and tha came up NOT PREGNANT, i herd of fake negative buh never a fake possative so i dont kno what to think any one got any dvice on what i should do? thanx all and im too very sorry for all of ur losses i kno how hard it is x x x

Hi, that is confusing. I think it would have to be a very sensitive test if you got a + 7 days before expected AF (let alone 12). Very hard to guess whats going on with the Oving.
This was a few days ago now...did it resolve itself?

hi there roroll yes it did get sorted i got a very faint one at first thn done a digi today and got a massive pregnant staring back at me im about 5weeks and 1 day all very excited x

Congrats

Hey all, just an update so I'm just short of 6 weeks after d&c and my hcg levels are finally at 5, I had all the signs of ovulation over the weekend so now the waiting begins for my period or a bfp

Hi Jay! Do you have any updates?

I just m/c and had a d&c Feb. 6 and we are trying to wait at least 1 cycle before trying again. Did you conceive before your first full cycle? I felt like I ovulated a week after my d&c but I just figured it was wacky hormones.

I had a d and c on Dec 23, at 11 weeks (found out heart had stopped in week 10) was a missed m/c. Will never forget that ultrasound. And it is good to read that not alone in this situation.
Anyway, we TTC in first month after but no luck. Had lots of spotting and higher than normal temps, so I think preg hormones were still present and body bit out of whack after trauma/changes. I had normal Ov (+opk) and also took a HPT half way through the month to check was neg again. (I was actually pleased to see that negative hpt. lol!) AF was normal and I am thankful for that.
So, now body getting more back to normal again...time to try again! I know how everyone feels on this forum it was the hardest thing ever...next AF due on 16th Feb so got to get busy..got a huge pack of OPKs from online to increase chances...will let you know how I go and good luck to you all

We have very SIMILAR situations

Me, I had my D&C at 12 weeks on Dec 22 (baby was 8-9 weeks in size). And that ultrasound was such a terrible time. I just had a meltdown.

Finally I had gotten a negative pregnancy test on about December 18th (4 weeks after D&C). I started using OPKs a few days later. We weren't going to try right away, so I wasn't using them religiously. But I happened to get a + on Dec 25. We decided to try, but didn't BD until the evening of the 25th. It was our first time having intercourse since the procedure (doctor told us to wait a month for sex). So that was our one and only time and I kinda hope it wil be successful, even though I am sort of worried about the condition of my lining.

Do you feel that your lining is strong enough? You had a period, so yours is probably in better condition than mine. But sometimes I feel like the w hole month I waited just to get a - on HPT might have been good enough for the lining to build.

Good luck to you this cycle!

Hi Dahlia! How is everything going with you? I just had a m/c and d&c on 2/6. I'm still waiting for a normal cycle. It's so hard to wait before trying again!

Co hope I finally got my first af on Tuesday was very heavy with big gush of blood and big clot then bleeding the rest of the day, Wednesday was light bleeding and then Thursday was just spotting and gone by Thursday night, I've started taking temps again and using opk's this cycle and going to bd every second day the whole way thru so hopefully I catch the egg this month, I know alot of ppl on here have got pregnant after the first af, the waiting is hard and it atarted doing my head in mc throws your body out so much, good luck and I hope things get back on track for u soon

Good luck to you too jayjay!

I know this is so wrong, and I'm ashamed to say it but my dog got pregnant right after me and she is getting bigger and bigger since and she is due in 2wks and every time I look at her and rub her belly I get jealous and just want to cry. I can't really say that to any of my family members because I know they would think I'm completely wacko so hopefully some of you will understand. Just saying it to someone helps get it off my chest.

I know that miscarriage is very common, I even prepared myself for it mentally (since my mom went through it). What I was not prepared for was feeling so weak and out of control (emotionally). I know hormones play a big roll in all of this but I am usually a really strong person and I just want to be me again!

Ok, I'm done with that. Thank you ladies for being here, for listening, and comforting and for understanding. I'm so thankful for you all!

Don't feel ashamed about feeling that way, it's normal, we all deal with this in our own way and u have the right to feel anyway u do, we all know how your feeling

Yes, I know exactly what you mean...its now my third cycle since and I am finally feeling more normal again..more like me. everyday i think..wow I really was out of whack = emotional/hormonal...and i think oh so this is how i should feel ...i was really done-in before. Last cycle I would just cry and cry and did not feel like myself.

However recently...I have noticed I have more energy again (and optimism). My mum advised me to take extra Vit B6 and this may have helped. I also took Evening Primrose Oil up till Ov and this is known to help stabilize and calm those who have bad PMT. I guess the best healer is just time passing since.
It is now this very beginning of my 2ww and I am hopeful that we will get pregnant again this month or soon.. I guess I have lost that desperation I had to get pg straight away again after d and c...it will happen...I just have to let it happen when it does.
So I hope you feel back to yourself soon too..or can also arrive at a place that is your new self with the history and pain in there somewhere but not taking over. xx

I can totally see how that would bother you! I'm sure I would feel the same way. You're definitely not crazy... You can never be prepared for a miscarriage, though. They are hard on us no matter what!

CO, I would have had the same reaction as you. We are quite complex being human and all, and something like that surely might pull on heartstring.

update on me... yesterday I tested in the morning and got a slight positive at 10 dpo. I'm still not believing it, and didn't have the courage to test this morning. I'll test again tomorrow. So we weren't able to catch the egg right after the D&C, but we probably caught the egg from this second cycle.

 

[CO Hope]

Thanks for the encouragement ladies!

Dahlia I will be saying a little prayer for you!

Hiya girls, i am just wondering if anyone on here got cramps/ backache a week or a few days before their af started after a d and c. I am a bit worried, it's only been 4 weeks and 3 days since my d and c but all period pain etc seems to have abruptly stopped so im wondering why my period didn't come when I had the cramps last week. Thanks
