Hi Ladies, I hope I can join in here... I've just had my first AF after a D/C and am rearing to go. Only, I have no idea what things like a luteal phase is or how to chart what?! Does anyone here drag their man to bed every couple of days & hope for the best? Cos I think I might be too disorganised for charting things regularly (seeing as I can barely floss my teeth regularly). Sorry I don't know all the acronyms either, otherwise I would have typed something cooler
Also, sorry I didn't reply to each of you. Way past my bedtime
And one more thing... did anyone else have a short AF after m/c? Like one day?
Sharon - I don't know how long my luteal phase is as I've just started charting. I've always pretty much had a 28 day cycle but have in the last year I've had a couple of cycles where AF arrived about a week early.
Welcome Pash. I'm sorry for your loss. Of course you are welcome here. I too had a short AF after my m/c - I think it was two days and I expected it to be much heavier and longer. You will get used to the abreviations, I remember being quite confused but I'm an expert now and have only been here on here for a couple of months. I use fertility friend to chart. Its an online charting system. You have to be pretty dedicated to taking your temp at the same time each morning before rising to get any benefit out of it though. I started using it as I'm thinking that I may be headed towards having to see a fertility specialst (FS) again and they usually like you to chart.
I had a couple of weird things happen last night. I got a shooting vaginal pain.... that's the only way to describe it. A couple of hours later I got a sharp pain just below my left rib. Just for the last 10 minutes or so I have been getting pain on my left side on and off. I've read that these types of pain can be an early pg symptom so I hope that's what it is.... trying not to get my hopes up. My HPTs are at the post office waiting on me collecting them so I will be able to test if things keep looking positive next week. I'm on 7DPO now.
