TTC after miscarriage before AF

[happynewmom1]

Got a bfn on digi with fmu

Did you take a frer with fmu? Honestly a digi is not sensitive at all.. I wouldn't take that until I get strong lines on something else or until after af is due.

Argh still getting faint bfps!! So frustrating!! I'm cd11 today, they are super faint so I must be in the low teens now. I just want a bfn already so I can start opks! So far we've bd cd 7, 8 & 10 and we'll prob just keep going as and when we feel like it. Dh seems really keen to keep at it so I don't think I'll have any probs with timing if I do O at all!

That sounds incredibly frustrating!! But I'm glad you are able to relax a little and have some fun with your dh. I don't know if it's true or not.. Maybe you have read too that some women have ovulated after a miscarriage before their hcg was all the way to zero. But you never know. I've got my fx for you

It was a digi frer... Does that make a difference? Says it's for 5 days early

I'm not sure but most digital ones will say that anyway. I believe clear blue definitely says that. I just find its better to avoid digital until you have good lines on something else

If I have a 26 day cycle af is due sat... If it's longer after mc then who knows.... Going to try and wait until I miss (if that even happens)

OK that makes sense! Hopefully your cycles aren't too messed up! I'm a bit concerned about that myself. Not even sure when to expect af now. Will need to try to figure it out I guess.

I waited and tested a few days after when I would normally expect af. I am glad I did since I hate squinted. They really stress me out and I spend so much time obsessing over them in every possible light. Try to relax and give it a couple of days. I also heard all digis were less sensitive than dye tests with the exception of the cb digital weeks estimator, which has a more sensitive test strip in it.

It's so good to hear from you! I hope you were able to unwind and de stress some! I'm so sorry you are stuck with such a long cycle i have read vitex can help bring cycles on and helps regulate hormones to help ovulate and such. I don't know if you have heard of it or if it would help. It has a lot of success stories but I'm sure it goes both ways so might be something to research.

I did take another test and I can't tell if I have line eye or what but not going to stress this cycle. Just going to try taking them for fun since I'm not even sure I ovulated. I've been feeling really crappy though. No more cramps.. Just muscle and body aches, a headache and runny nose. Fun. I had the runny nose badly before my bfp last time but I know many have their pregnancy symptoms before their first af so not going to look too much into that.

Hi ladies. I still have my fingers crossed for all of you. Think happy thoughts, you will know for sure one way or another really soon.

Afm, I am worried that I am lacking in pregnancy symptoms. The only symptoms I have are exhaustion, which could be due to the progesterone, and irritability. I don't even think my sense if smell is very sensitive, but that could be due to seasonal allergies. I wish I could just relax.

Sending good baby thoughts to all of you today! While I am not sure I am ready for the anxiety of the tww (probably at least another week off...well based on my pre-mc cycles), I am definitely ready to start trying again.

In case you haven't seen it, a new article came out recently called "How I turned my miscarriage into something good". I was going to post the link, but am too much of a newbie to do so (The forum won't let me.) A quick search of the title on the internet should pop it up. It was a good read. I am really appreciative that forums like this exist so that we can talk about our experiences, even if we aren't ready to talk to the world. (My sister knew, but I only recently told my mom and a few close friends. It was surprisingly freeing!)

So thanks to you all from afar!

Eclaire, I know it must be stressful while in first trimester. I hope it goes quickly and smoothly for you so that you can start to relax and enjoy being pregnant part of me is actually afraid to get pregnant again in a way.. It would be so difficult to lose another

SammyBat, I do know what you mean! The tww can be rough but we will be here to symptom spot with you and either encourage or discourage you to poas early (whichever your goal will be) I love looking at that pictures but I also hate seeing bfn.. I don't know why i do it to myself.

 

[firsttimer123]

That's a great little read! It's sad how mc has such stigma associated with it. I was scared to share because I didn't know what to say! It's a very emotional time so we need friend and family support!

 

[firsttimer123]

Does anyone see it??? Had to test again I am addicted.... I see a faint line

 

[firsttimer123]

I can see it in the negative... Does it make a difference?

 

[happynewmom1]

I definitely see something faint yet pinkish in the original picture. I'm not sure if I see anything in the negative one or not.

 

[Eclaire]

Firsttimer I agree with Happynewmom. I see something in the original picture but not so much in the inverse. Hope darker tomorrow.

Sammy I liked article. I've thought about the taboo and started sharing my stories. But what I find odd is we are not telling anyone about this current pregnancy until the second tri. I am not sure why, but my husband wants to make sure it sticks before we make it public. I don't think he is very comfortable discussing our previous losses.

Happynewmom I am terrified of another loss, that is why I am having such a hard time accepting this pregnancy. It seems bizarre that after 10 months of really trying and 2 losses I should become pregnant the one month I didn't really try and timing was pretty awful. Plus I feel so guilty. I drank during the tww and skipped a bunch of prenatals. I never do that.

 

[firsttimer123]

Tested again... Light on cheapie but I'm not seeing anything on the frer makes no sense

 

[happynewmom1]

Eclaire, we have always announced right away and we did with this last baby too... I'm a private person usually so unannouncing is difficult for me so for that reason, when we get pregnant again (staying positive), I will likely be the one to say I'd rather wait to announce until we see baby and all is well which might be closer to second trimester. But everyone is different that way.. But maybe your dh just wants to keep it private this time. He could just still be dealing with the past losses and is being cautious. I don't know though.. Just a thought. My dh hasn't opened up to me about the loss.. It was early though and he doesn't tend to start feeling attached to the baby until later when he can feel kicks and things.

Firsttimer I'm sorry does the line on the cheapie look any darker or about the same?
