Ok so my tests started fading, I was spotting and my level came back at 42. It was at least 200 on Wednesday and then down to 42 yesterday.

Miscarriage inevitable :-( xx

Oh Nat, I'm so sorry to hear that :hugs:
 
Hello Ladies,

I'm back now, exhausted but back finally at least.

Nat - I'm so sorry you are going through this again. Sending you lots of hugs :hugs::hugs::hugs: xx

Lindsay - Hope you had fun with the staycation and caught some sun? Sometimes the holidays at home are the best ones! Have you had any more symptoms? Fingers crossed for you [-o< xx

Bluestars - My chart is in the footer of my message, you can have a look at it if you click on the chart. I stopped temping soon after getting my BFP as was stressing about the temps. I didn't temp straight after the m/c but always temped at the same time pretty much everyday when I started. And remember you're not out until the witch arrives. How are your symptoms?

Crysshae - So glad you're back into a new cycle!! Fingers and toes crossed this is the one...!!! Exciting stuff! \\:D/

Nina - How are you feeling now? Have the cramps stopped? Why don't you try a FRER instead of the cheap internet ones? I still find them confusing, even after getting strong positives with all other tests. :hugs:

Update on me, I've been so busy recently have hardly time to think about the baby. I'm exhausted though, haven't been able to sleep much at night either. Have got a doctors appointment tomorrow evening (not sure how I managed an evening appointment!) so I should get to find out what the next steps are. I'm guessing they'll want to do a scan to determine how far along I am. It's been 9.5 weeks since the m/c, I did a digi test this morning and it showed 2-3 weeks, so 4-5 weeks pregnant, still very cautious as it's such early days.

Nat still thinking of you xx

I'll keep you all posted tomorrow xxxx
 
I'm scared of miscarrying naturally. Does it hurt? Is it likely that I'll see things?

Sorry for the nature of the questions but I'm worried xx
 
Don't worry Nat <3
You're pretty early on, so it probably won't hurt much.
I had a natural at 6+4 and I only had AF cramps one day and before passing the sac a few sharp pains. I don't think you'll see much, maybe just the sac, but it will be a bit of a glob, similar to a large clot.
I only knew it was the sac because I was looking for it. I spent about an hour going in and out of the bathroom passing clots and just wiping. The next day it was like a medium flow AF, then just got lighter ((hugs)) we're here for you Hun <3
 
So sorry to hear this Nat hope you are ok. Thougjts are with you!

Aleeah I couldnt really say I have any symptoms at all. Although I havent been lookimg for anything. Breast feel normal and not had any cramping at all. Will have a little look at your temping. Glad you are doing well though! Its nice to have you back! Xxxx

Thanks hun, that's reassuring. It should be too painful and gory then which is a relief. Still unpleasant I'll bet but shouldn't be much worse than a period.

It's the waiting for it to start that's horrible xx
 
Hello Ladies,

Nina - How are you feeling now? Have the cramps stopped? Why don't you try a FRER instead of the cheap internet ones? I still find them confusing, even after getting strong positives with all other tests. :hugs:

I felt worse today. Nasuea from morning till noon, and then cramps until the evening. I have those sharp pains on my side every now and then. HPT negative. It's still early if anything is positive though.
I put my charts together, and if when my levels reached 0 it may have triggered both O and AF, which would explain the darker OPK last weekend, along with the super bad cramps Friday (ovulation?)
If last Friday was O, my chart ain't half bad. I'd be 9dpo today, implantation dip? (I added the "crosshairs")
Still pathetic talk!
I just FEEL so pregnant, like I know the line will show, just have to wait. It's crazy, the same feeling I had last time.
Maybe tomorrow morning I'll test with a CB, even though I still think nit might be early. We don't have FRER here.

It's still early, so I don't think you should see much. The first 2 days, I had very dark brown and dark red spotting, no pain. On the 3rd day, I started cramping in the morning. Around 4 that evening I started having contractions. They weren't as bad as contractions at full-term, but I could tell they were contractions. They were about 45 seconds long every 2 minutes with nothing in between so I knew it was about to happen. About 2 hours after they started I began to bleed heavier and passed a small amount of tissue and medium flow of red blood. I continued to pass red blood for a while and a small amount through the night. Then only spotted for for the next 6 days.

So sorry you have to go through this again. We're all here for you. :hugs:
 
:hugs: Nina. I hope you get to figure out what's going on soon.

Welcome back, Aleeah.

I'm at the dark brown no pain stage so I guess it's coming. I hope it won't be long xx

Nat I'm so sorry you're having to go through this.

This may TMI for some of you, sorry...


I had dark brown spotting 2 days after the scan that showed the baby had gone (I honestly believe having the scan and knowing my baby had died a week earlier helped kick start my body to miscarry the baby). I was 8 weeks pregnant but baby had died at 7 weeks. I had the brown spotting for a day then this turned to red bleeding, lots of it, no clots just lots of blood. I then got contraction like pains exactly as Crysshae described and I wasn't taking any painkillers. The pain was bad but I carried on making dinner and squatting when I needed to, so you can imagine it wasn't as bad as I'd anticipated. The pain eased up after a few hours but I still was passing just blood. I went to A&E on my own the next day, as the blood was soaking way more than 1 pad an hour. They did an examination and the sac all intact had somehow lodged itself inside me after passing through the cervix. They removed it, it didn't hurt, took seconds and the bleeding literally stopped instantly.

I'd expected the whole experience to be horrific but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The pain was manageable and I was on my own through most of the experience (hubby was away with work) but that was fine too. Just try and be strong, I'll pray for you and pray it's over quickly and as painlessly as possible.

Thinking of you xxxx :hugs::hugs::hugs:

Thank you for being honest and sharing what must have been a difficult story with me to help to reassure me.

That's exactly how I felt. I hated it all but once I knew it was happening, I hated being in limbo. :hugs: I can't say I'm sorry enough. My heart is breaking for you. :cry:
 
Hope you are doing ok Nat.

I week past ovulation today think af is due soon and temp is dropping. Not feeling anything at all. Feel all normal dont think this is my month at all.

How are all you ladies doing?

Nina are you any clearer today? Xxxx
 
Nada. Add bloating to the list.
I'm about 9/10 DPO going by my theory of O before AF. Still early for any kind of BFP if that's what it is. I'll be buying some CB today and keep peeing on them.
My temp went up and combined charts look good.
