TTC after miscarriage before AF

[happynewmom1]

TinyLynne, I'm so sorry you are going through that. And waiting is so hard especially when it's something that could help get you the one thing you really want.

Mimdan, that's why I never test on short holds especially when early. First or second morning urine worked best for me and only second if I didn't drink much between the two lol after that I don't feel like I can trust it well. I do know some ladies have better luck later in the day bit I guess I drink too many liquids during the day for that. The last test looks really good though! I look forward in seeing your morning rest

Afm, my ultrasound was rescheduled for Thursday afternoon so more waiting ahhhhh. But i guess I'll be almost 8 weeks at that point so hopefully will see more

Powell, I hope everything is going well for you! I've got my fx for you!

Hi Everyone, I'm joining a bit early as my MMC was only discovered on Sunday and I am still waiting to get a d&c which will be next week. The only thing keeping me going is thinking about ttc again ASAP! I've heard it's possible to ovulate around 2 weeks after the d&c so I'm going to start HPT testing and go for it straight away. I'm hoping it's true that you're more fertile after a miscarriage. Good luck everyone x

 

[mimdan]

Hi jjay..i'm sorry for your loss and hope you get your bfp again soon !


Well, I tested with fmu...line not looking as dark as last night's test feeling angry today...I know I should get bloods done but I'm afraid it will squash what little hope I have left.

 

[mimdan]

Top is last night...bottom this morning fmu....This sucks

 

[JJay]

Thanks Mimdan.


Congratulations on your BFP. I don't think the line would look much darker already between last night and this morning. It's supposed to be every 48hrs the HCG doubles. I always find my FMU is the worst for giving strong lines - I always get stronger tests later in the day. All of my digi BFPs have been BFN in the morning and BFP in the afternoon x

Hi jjay, thank you for your reply I've been testing now for about 5 days and the line is starting to get lighter rather than continuing getting darker so it's not just about the difference in the recent tests it's also the fact it should be a fair bit darker than my first frer I did this cycle....am so bummed ! x

 

[JJay]

Sorry to hear that

Are you thinking chemical?

I have my fingers crossed it's just taking a while for your levels to rise

Xxx

 

[mimdan]

Thank you hun...yea it seems to me history is repeating itself so looking like a chemical I can't believe the amount of ups and downs in this thread !! its crazy

 

[Powell510]

I'm so so sorry mimdan!

Afm, confused! Only cd6 and FF changed me to fertile today and yesterday this morning and I have no clue why?! Lol last dose of soy tomorrow and start OPKs Saturday

 

[mimdan]

Thanx Powell x

That sounds confusing for you hun ! Lol Are you feeling confident for this cycle ? I've everything crossed for you !!

Powell, if I am indeed having another chemical...would I still get sharp twinges etc in uterus if pregnancy has failed ? They are not cramps today just little sharp twinges simular to ov pain ?

 

[Powell510]

It's kinda confusing as to why FF has me at fertile! I first thought cuz yesterdays temp was super high (but I wrapped up too tight in the blankets cuz hubs had the fan pointing right at me and I woke up sweating like a pig so I discarded the temp so that shouldn't be a factor, right?) I even changed the mode and its still saying that! I stopped bleeding on CD4 and just spotted yesterday so that's different (usually bleed for 5-6 days with one or two of spotting after) I found an old thread I was in and soy shortened my spotting by a day or so last time but I think this is from the AVC tho.

Thanx hun, yeah I'm still feeling good about this cycle!

Hard to say hun... are they AF like at all?

 

[mimdan]

What does AVC mean ? I don't use FF so I'm not clued up on what maybe causing it to say your fertile ? But I hope you DTD just incase !! my last AF was light too which was also odd for me, usually I'm pretty heavy ! I had 3 days of spotting, 4 days of light to medium bleeding then spotted for another day or two and that was it...sometimes I spot before AF but bleeding goes onto a heavy flow right from the start ! No idea why it was lighter, maybe it was the inositol ? Oh and (tmi) I remember having ewcm looking stuff on the last day...very strange Lol

I'm glad your feeling positive

No not like AF, have slight back cramps but twinges are more of a sharp pain than a cramp and only on the right side. Not particularly painful either. I know it's hard to say why, it's just confusing as I understand tender boobs etc can take a while to settle down but still getting twinges if it's failing to implant ???? I don't know.... LOL

I think we're going to when hubs gets home from work just in case! ACV is Apple Cider Vinegar. It's supposed to help balance pH and a few other things TTC (mannny other health benefits) but I read last night that it also helps regulate cycles, alleviate PMS symptoms and shorten bleeding so that's kinda cool!

That is strange! Maybe try testing again Thursday?

 

[mimdan]

Oh that's interesting ! Do you just drink it or put it on food ? Well hopefully that was the cause of your shortened period...so nice when you notice improvements isn't it ! I can't believe I got a bfp so early in this cycle compared to Feb which was cd 33...so that was a nice improvement

Glad your planning on DTD

As much as I'm getting fed up with testing, you know I will Lol

 

[Powell510]

I drink it but you can do either! I take honey (egg quality and such) and cinnamon (blood flow, circulation, IR and such) so I just make a little drink with hot water, honey, cinnamon, ginger & lemon juice 2x a day (sometimes once) and added the ACV about a week and a half - two weeks ago! I love seeing that something is working lol

Do you have any cheapie tests? Opk or hpt?

That is an improvement! Have you thought about taking baby aspirin? It supposedly helps with implantation and help prevent miscarriages (when there is a clotting problem and I think a few others)

 

[TinyLynne]

Hey Mimdan, I know you don't want to get betas, but it is good to document a pregnancy with the doctors office, it will help them to see where your betas are to get to a possible diagnosis. I did have cramping like that too, I hear it is normal and it is swelling ligaments, so it isn't necessarily a bad thing.

 

[mimdan]

Well, I tested this afternoon with very diluted pee, the test looks ok again ! Will post a pic in a moment. Sooo I am confused !! Booked appointment with nurse for tomorrow morning to have bloods done. The only thing is they are closed Thursday so I won't know the results till Friday !!!!! Second bloods will probably be Friday which i'm guessing means I won't know the result until Monday !! crap crap crap !!!

 

[mimdan]

What do you think ??

 

[happynewmom1]

Wow that test does look a lot better! Fx for you!!! That stinks you will be in limbo for awhile but I'm glad you are getting some done

Powells Suggestion might be worth considering. I don't know if it's helping or not but I did start baby aspirin this time when I got my bfp. It's so cheap and I figured it shouldn't hurt anything.

Hey ladies, just jumping in with a quick question. I had a D&C the 17th of April. Last Friday I got a very faint positive on a FRER and called my doc. They had me come in Monday and the nurse couldn't tell if my test was positive or not so drew my blood. They did a beta and finally called this morning, said it was negative at 1.2. I decided to test anyways after and got a darker faint line, tested tonight and got an even darker line tonight, after I drank coffee and barely peed on it. Other ladies say its residual HCG but wouldn't the tests get lighter? I tried to ask the nurse about it but she was rude and said no you're definitely not pregnant, do you want provera to start your cycle? Any input ladies? Thanks!
