TTC after miscarriage before AF

[mssk]

I decided to take a break over the weekend too. It was nice here so we spent the weekend at various parks hiking and climbing with DS and DD by the creek. I was hoping all the activity would help push AF into action. But, now today is day 4 after the last pill of Provera and still just symptomatic so I am just sitting here waiting hoping it doesn't take the dreaded 14 days to arrive. I never pay to much attention to AF symptoms (I use to have it horrible in my teens. No mistaking it I'd be out of school for the entire duration). Now I don't notice the symptoms. But, since I am looking for them-my hips hurt, my breast are sore(mostly in the am) and I have cramping and back pain. It has got to be soon right?

How is everyone else this morning-how were you weekends?

Tiny- I hope you are feeling okay today

I started my Femara this weekend so that made me feel better mentally, like I'm trying something different and actually have a shot this month!

Also, it was a Harry Potter weekend on ABC Family, so it rocked as always

 

[mssk]

Wait? I missed Harry Potter weekend?!
Probably better of because we would probably not have left the house lol

I am glad you were able to start Femara ! hopefully we will both have a good month

 

[TinyLynne]

Yup. Lol. To be honest I actually only watched a couple bits and pieces because my mom and step dad are staying with us and I didn't want to make them watch it. And we did get out of the house a bit, it was a nice weekend!

But I did honor Harry Potter weekend by getting "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live" tattooed above my ankle. lol

This morning I had spotting, bright red when I wiped (sorry if tmi), and it stopped with that. I've been having a dull ache on my left side. I'm also really beat, but that could be that I woke up to see DH off for a trip.

Of course, now I am stalking the internet, trying to figure out if this is O spotting or implantation. Both seem a little off timing-wise, but then again with my busted thermometer I'm not really sure that I am 3dpo. I want to believe it is O spotting because I don't want to get my hopes up too high. But I want it to be implantation bleeding. Well, fx'ed. I'll see what my temps do the next couple of days and then, if I'm feeling lucky, I might test on Friday.

Hi there, I noticed we MC maybe a week a part. Were you using OPKs? I feel like I will never ovulate. My OPKS are barely visible. I'm wondering if yours is implantation because of how sensitive everything probably is in there...I'm anxious to see what the next week brings for you!

 

[xanzaba]

Hi Tag- Sorry to hear about your loss. The spotting was actually AF arriving, so I guess I didn't O. On the one side I'm disappointed, but on the other side glad I don't have to wait 2 weeks and waste an eggie. Hopefully AF will help clear out my system and I will have more time for my iron and folic acid levels to go back up.

I'm taking advantage, relaxing now with a glass of red wine and enjoying my freedom from the TWW and TTC.

Hope that you get your rainbow baby this cycle, but if not that you get a quick answer

 

[xanzaba]

Hmm, I wonder if I spoke too soon. I had some more spotting yesterday and it was heavier. But then it stopped, and my temp is high again today. I'm glad they warned me that abnormal is normal after a miscarriage. Ugh, sometimes this whole process is like reading tea leaves.

I haven't been using OPKs this cycle. Usually between O symptoms and my temp rise things are clearer than this, and it's probably too late to use them now.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Looking at your chart...if you DID ovulate when FF says you did, I would't imagine AF would be here yet, do you? I hope this is maybe a good sign for you!

Mine temps are still going up and down slightly and OPKs are a tiny bit darker this am but not much. Hoping to O soon to get this party started.

Keep us posted!

 

[xanzaba]

Hi Tag- I hope your OPKs keep getting darker. I'll be checking on your chart

If I did O, this is not AF coming. I've resorted to checking cervical position- I think it's a bit lower and firmer but I'm not really sure because I don't check regularly. I do feel a bit crampy and nauseated, but it might be in my head. I'm going to go buy a new thermometer and throw away this horrid thing- it beeps 10 times, but then keeps rising for several minutes.

 

[xanzaba]

So it's official, I'm out this month. Time to lick my wounds and move on to a fresh new cycle

 

[TinyLynne]

Sorry xanzaba, better luck in this new cycle!

 

[Pato]

Gm ladies. So sorry Xanzaba I was hoping it wasn't AF coming, but at least now you have a fresh start....and get a new thermy.

Hope all you ladies are doing well today. I'm off today and gotta catch up on some laundry and some sleep....I've been DTD since CD 8 and I'm CD16 today. Had a boatload of EWCM yesterday after two dry days and finally got a temp spike this morning . At my doctor appointment on Monday the scan showed I would O from my left ovary and that seemed to have happened yesterday so I'm now 1DPO today . I did buy a new thermy and it gives higher temperature readings than my old one even when I take the temp simultaneously
Anyway all the best to everyone

 

[tag74]

Sorry xanzaba! My O doesn't seem to be on its way so I'm sure I'll be joining you soon.

FX everyone!

 

[mssk]

Tinylynne- I love that. What a great tattoo!

Well Ladies it sound like we are all coming up on fresh cycles.

Pato-Goodluck I hope this cycle is the lucky one for you!

As for me, I am SIX (note the capital letters to symbolize just how frustrated I am lol) days post Provera and AF has still not shown. Lots of pulling and stretching feelings along with cramping. This is getting irritating...

 

[mssk]

Now 66 days post miscarriage with no cycle

 

[ttcnumber2ky]

Mssk- i hope AF shows soon so you can start your next cycle!

xanzaba- best of luck to you next cycle!

 

[TinyLynne]

I'm so sorry mssk that must be just agonizing. I really hope AF shows soon and you can get back to making that rainbow!

 

[mssk]

Thanks TinyLynne. It is driving me crazy I have never wanted AF to show so bad.

 

[xanzaba]

Mssk- I'm sorry you're going through this. Do you know if you ovulated? What does the doc say?
