TTC after miscarriage before AF

[TinyLynne]

I really hope you find someone who supports you soon. And I completely understand about just wanting it to start. I'm in the same boat. (Though we were going to stop BDing around O time, and we have, but it looks like I Od early for the first time EVER! Whoops...

 

[mssk]

Oh TWW for you then? I have been cramping for weeks I feel bad for DH I have no desire to BD at all which is not like me. Oh well hopefully we will all be done with our waiting soon.

 

[TinyLynne]

I think so... Monitor never peaked. But I got metal tastes in my mouth for a couple of days now. And my CM was super egg white last week, and is not fertile at all now.

Hi ladies.

I had a chemical/early loss last month at 4w4d.
We dtd once after that and then i freaked out and decided i wanted to wait and get my head straight before actively trying.. well to my shock i just got a bfp.. havent had a periid since the miscarriage.. i must only be about 3w4d.. im on utter disbelief and so scared its not gonna stick again..

 

[twin mum 27]

Ive also beem drinking a bit as i really didnt imagine this happening..

 

[happynewmom1]

Aww congrats! I hope this baby sticks! Drinking a little early early pregnancy
and especially before a bfp shouldn't hurt anything

 

[TinyLynne]

Good luck twin mum

 

[mssk]

Good luck twin mum!

TinyLynne, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you .

As for me I caved and started the Provera today. I just couldn't take it anymore I have not ovulated and I am cramping and tired all the time. I only had enough for one month so hopefully this sets my body back on track. It has been 45 days since the miscarriage was "complete" and 51 days since the bleeding started. I just need to feel like I am moving forward. My 2 month wait was turned into a 3 month wait with no period this cycle.

 

[TinyLynne]

Mssk, that is probably the best choice. Who knows how long it could have went on. I hope it works quickly for you. So does that could as a cycle to your Dr?

Current chart and BFP chart. Looking mighty similar!!

 

[TinyLynne]

Test! Test! Test!!!!

 

[Powell130]

I've been testing since 7DPO hahaha I didn't get BFP until two days after the last temp on the BFP chart so if I am pregnant I'm not expecting anything until next week lol gotta love my 3WW

 

[mssk]

TinyLynne, He said because of my HCG level never being very high and getting down to 0 within a two weeks from the start of the miscarriage that I should have expected AF in 4-5 weeks at most after the miscarriage completed. I should have had it around July 1st. So it put me having my period behind 2 weeks right now and the Provera takes another 5 days to produce bleeding so I am almost behind by an entire regular cycle. So I can't count the missed cycle. He said I have to have two successful periods with ovulation before we can TTC so I feel like I just got more time added to my 2 month sentence....The bleeding from Provera will count as a cycle as long as I ovulate.

 

[mssk]

Good luck Powell! After these losses I am going to have so much trouble waiting to test lol I don't think I will be able to control myself.

 

[TinyLynne]

Hopefully baby shows itself soon Powell!!

Mssk - that sounds absolutely horrible I can't believe he is making you wait 2, especially since your HCG was so low. I can understand 1 in some cases.

When you called it a 'sentence' it absolutely broke my heart. That is exactly what it feels like, except we have done nothing to deserve it.

I really hope these next 2 months go by quick for you. I know that it will feel like forever even if you have shorter cycles. But I have a really good feeling that it will all be worth it for you in the end.

Remember that you aren't alone in all of this.

Hello everyone. I have read the entire thread now and I'm hoping I can join. Background: I have one child as a result of my first pregnancy, I had one mc in March (7weeks - D&C), and another at the end of June (5weeks - naturally) as a result of ttc #2. Our Dr. recommended we wait a couple of cycles, but DH and I decided to just ntnp starting now. It's nerve-wracking for sure.

I'm trying to keep calm cool and collected about all of this, but alas I'm symptom spotting. With each pregnancy I've had, I have had symptoms before bfp and I'm having what could be symptoms again, but I'm only on CD19 (if you count the first day of mc as CD1). I'm going to try my absolute best not to test at all until CD30 with the hope that I will either get AF before testing, or get a nice bright bfp. This is my goal.

 

[TinyLynne]

Ttcnumber2 - I think that is a great idea, but I'm weak and I know I couldn't hold off that long! Have your symptoms been different on BFP cycles vs bfn cycles?

 

[ttcnumber2ky]

Tiny- I'm not sure I'm that strong either LOL. But I'm going to try!

I've had some the same and some different. I'm having indigestion and bloating this time which I had with mc #1, and headaches which I had with my DD and mc #2. I am also having a new one this time around which I don't know is a symptom of PG or not and that's some sharp pains where I imagine my cervix to be (sorry if that's TMI!). Who knows!

 

[Powell130]

Little dip today. Meh. Still above cover line tho and cervix is high, soft and tightly closed which is favorable so not tooooooooo worried yet lol

 

[mssk]

Powell- I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! How many days left before you test?

TinyLynne- It has been heartbreaking. I felt like the Dr. was shaming me for not wanting to wait. Like we were irresponsible for not waiting after the first miscarriage. He demanded I wait this time. All I could picture was a judge slamming down his gavel in my head...like I had no choice but to follow his word or another loss would be my fault if we tried to soon. The worst part is I thought last time I took the Provera it took 5 days to induce bleeding but I must be remembering wrong. It takes 1-14 days after the last pill is taken (10 days of pills). So I officially have an entire cycle gone waiting for AF. Honestly I think I am going to lose my mind if it takes 14 days after I am done taking it to get AF. I think I will have trouble not trying this cycle. On the plus side the Provera is making me sick which stinks but it means it is working. I have some ovulation symptoms so that's good.
You are right none of us deserve this. But, it will pay off for us in the end. It is worth the wait.
