TTC after m/c before AF

[Crazywaiter]

Hey Maxxi-sorry you're out this cycle, I hope next month is your month!

 

[oyinkan]

Hi ladies,AF caught me yesterday so am out of this cycle and wishing you ladies that remain all the best.

 

[baby1wanted]

AF for me too, wishng everyone else still in there lots of luck
Am bit down in the dumps but know I should be positive - AF has come quickly after the mc so at least I'm not too messed up by it all.
Here's to another month....
I'm going to go ahead with the fertility clinic testing as originally planned so bloods and scan on friday for me

Hi ladies, can I join you as well? I'm TCC before AF and I stopped bleeding around 4 days ago after my MC. I'm keeping my fingers crossed all is going to go well this month! Lots of love to you all x

Had my postoperative appt today and stitches out. Doctor gave the go ahead that as soon as I have a period I can start trying again. My uterus, ovaries and remaining tube look great. Most of the powder burns from the endometriosis are on my colon not my reproductive organs, which is weird. But at least I got some neat pictures from it!

Based on my ovulation I should start at the earliest this Sunday, maybe as late as Tuesday. So yea, able to start much faster than I thought.

So sorry, Baby1 and Oyinkan. Lots of baby dust for next cycle!

Ranaendel(i think it's hilarious that my iPad has your name memorized)- So glad all looks good and you're clear to try!

Welcome SamiB. I'm sorry for your loss. Everyone here is really friendly and we're sharing the

Renaendel (mymensingh iPad has memorised your name too ) so glad that everything went well at your appointment. That's great that you can start trying again so soon. Glad you're on the mend.

Crazywaiter, how're you feeling these days?

 

[oyinkan]

thanks ladies and welcome SamiB

Girly-I'm feeling pretty good, not too many symptoms...sore boobs and nausea here and there. My bloodwork came back from this week with hcg at 1,124 so that's good but progesterone dropped to 14 so they put me on suppository supplements. First scan March 11th! How are you doing?

I would like to join although it may be a little different for me. I had a D & C on 2/12 and as of yesterday opks were - and I had a slight line on a hpt. Today I got a - hpt and a + opk! Yesterday we had sex for the first time since my D & C and did not use anything so I guess we are just going to go for it even though we had originally decided we would wait until after my first AF then try. I'm just a lil scared..... I got pregnant straight after a natural miscarriage which resulted in my 2 yr old son but I'm not sure how different a D & C is compared to a natural miscarriage?????

Hi again.

Baby - I would totally do ivf again but my husband is not for it. His reasoning is that I had such a difficult time carrying my ivf twins - I delivered them at 28 weeks - why would we actively try to get me pregnant knowing how many risks are involved and how we may not get as lucky as we did with the twins (both ended up totally fine). He will do ivf if I insist but I'm having a hard time deciding if I should insist on something like that. As far as trying naturally he has no clue about my cycle so I can get around the not actively trying thing.


I'm still using the opk's and there's definitely been a line but my guess is a positive will jump out at me?

That's so cute you have twins.

If you don't mind me asking if you had ivf before can you get pregnant now without it? Or was it just because of a problem you had at the time that isn't relevant now?

I know a lady who had ivf after trying for years with no success. Then after having the baby, around 2 years later she got pregnant naturally! So it can definitely happen!

I started trying to have have kids after I got married in Dec 2008. I had just turned 37. In 2009 I went off of birth control in the summer and got pregnant 3 months later. That ended in a miscarriage in Nov 2009. I had just turned 38. In March of 2010 I got pregnant again and had a chemical. In July I went for my regular gyn appt and she referred me to a fertility specialist. He couldn't find anything wrong with either me or my husband but recommended IVF because of my age (I was turning 39). I started IVF in Oct 2010 and got pregnant with my twins on the first try. I had them in May 2011. In Oct 2011 I turned 40 and in March 2012 I got pregnant and miscarried again. I went back to my fertility specialist and he again couldn't find anything wrong. I turned 41 in Oct 2012 and in Dec 2012 I found out I was a pregnant again which ended up in this miscarriage this January.

Ah I see. Well then if they couldn't find anything wrong that's a good sign and you didn't need the ivf for that. Plus you can obviously get pregnant so hopefully it's just a matter of time before you get a sticky one that's so lucky your ivf worked the first time!

Glad you're not doing too bad. And your hcg levels sound lovely!! I'm getting a lot of symptoms these days, and all I ever want to do is sleep. Lol. Ooh, I've got my first scan on March 9th!! How're you feeling about yours? I'm excited but I'm so scared there's not going to e anything there. Is that silly? Lol.

Hi ladies

Can i join please?

I started to lose my baby on 21st Feb. It was a mmc at 13wk scan baby measured 9 wks and no heartbeat.

Its been a terrible week but emotionally im alright now and baby mostly came away at once so bleeding after that wasnt too heavy.

My main question is when can me and my husband start to dtd again? my bleeding has pretty much gone now. Im not wearing a pad anymore but on some occasions when i wipe (sorry tmi) there is a slight tinge of brown like old blood? i dont want to risk infection or anything but i do want to ttc as soon as possible.

Im sorry to hear about all of your losses but this thread is an inspiration x

 

[Girly922]

Welcome pinhams. I'm sorry for your loss. It's never easy, but we have a great bunch of ladies here.

I was told not to dtd until spotting had completely stopped as there was still a risk of infection during this time. We waited 24hours after I'd finished spotting before we started ttc again. I definitely think it helped us through the loss.

I hope it's not long before you get your sticky bean. We all deserve it here. Your words about this thread being an inspiration made me well up. Sending you lots of sticky

Hi pinhams, I've just recently joined too, sorry for your loss. We are now (well not right this second.. Lol) trying again. I stopped bleeding on the 24th feb after my miscarriage and started trying 48 hours after that. I'm now doing ovulation tests everyday and nothing yet, but we will keep going.

As long as u are mentally ready go for it x x

 

[WantaBelly]

I ovulated on the 1st of March so I am now in the tww....... FX'd

 

[Girly922]

Hi SamiB

Sorry for your loss

We dtd on the 3rd march for the first time after my miscarriage on the 21st Feb, i had stopped bleeding and it just felt right.

Im going to try and not do ovulation tests but i know what ive typed is a big fat lie and i will buy some in a matter of days probably! lol. Im just trying ot be reaxed about it all but inside all i want is to be pregnant.

I read somewhere that you can ovulayte 2 weeks after ur miscarriage, dont know if thats just if your lucky tho?

I also read that someone got told they were ovulating when they went for a scan to make sure all tissues from the miscarriage had gone? so im due to go for a scan on the 7th March and im going to ask if they can see anything. Worth a shot!

I hope you get your sticky bean very soon!

 

[Girly922]

You can ovulate almost as soon as your hcg is back down to 0 from what I've heard. And if you're ovulating the day you go for your scan they should be able to see it. But that sounds like very lucky timing to me. Lol.

Good luck ladies!!

Thanks girly922. I need all the baby dust i can get lol. as we all do. It will happen for us ladies.

Im going to ask if they can see if im ovulating but in not expecting to be, that would be lucky!!!

I see all you ladies talking about your hcg levels, ive never had my bloods taken and ive no idea what my hcg levels are, is this wrong? should i be getting bloods taken regularly to check?
