TTC after Miscarriage or Loss ~ April 08 #2

[Mel A]

Wow! sorry everyone, I've been a bit selfindulgent and relatively internally focused.

Hello to all and and my thoughts are with you.

[Jodsan]

Mel - Yeah, a blood test would definately show up at 13dpo, it'll pick up any hcg in you system, apparently as soon as bubs implants it lets off 5miu straight away. Which test did you use? I would think you should get a BFP tomorrow morning at 14dpo. You have the same symptoms as me which suggests some hcg is in your system, I get really dizzy if I stand up too quickly! Do you feel warm and fuzzy too, my skins a bit itchy in the shower?

Katie - That's interesting about Crystal Clear being your weakest, which brand was your strongest? I did use first morning urine but I got up 3 times in the night to pee so it really wasn't that concentrated.

Jen - think I'm going to have to test again 2moro morning (and try not to pee 3 times throughout the night). I have 3 Crystal Clear tests left so I thought I'd test every day til Monday, then if it's getting darker I'll call the dr for a blood test. BTW - I've had creamy CM since about 2dpo, quite a bit over the past couple of days.

Mel--Your symptoms sound very promising!

Jodsan--Can't wait to hear the good news in the morning! I have a really good feeling about it....

[Mel A]

yep feeling very warm and fuzzy, plus there is this wierd colour change on me feet, It looks like they have a great tan (pity about the rest of me). My tummy and my breasts are also itchy.

How exciting it sounds like we are both heading in a very exciting direction. I'm crossing everything for you hoping that line will show itself this weekend. :goodluck2:

Must, must, must do work, and stop thinking and parusing BB.

[Jodsan]

Mel - It's just not fair, you just need to know so you can relax. Yep, just starting to get itchy breasts, my nipples are kinda stingy. My feet seem the same though, but I'm 3 days behind you. Did you use First Response for the test? I'm going to try to get one today to use tomorrow, everyone says they are the best. :goodluck2: for POAS tomorrow morning.

[Mel A]

Yep used first response. I think i'll ge the three pack tonight and just do one a day till Monday.
Gook luck to you too for a clear line.

We should visualise our HGC levels doubling every day.

[jen805]

plc--I had to keep track of the names! Every single one listed has said something that has somehow helped get me through my darkest days. I'm just grateful for everyone! Have fun getting your jig on tonight!

hi everyone
just thought i would pop in and throw some more around.
Having a really quiet day working today - should have five kids in care (only one turned up) the rest are all sick. Doesn't happen that often and the one that is here is not normally in on a friday which means i could have scored the day off. Oh Well. this work is just so hard today, he slept for two hours this morning and i'm off to put him down for another hour (if i can) this afternoon.

jen - honey first of all i have to say a big thankyou cos u have listed everyone in this thread in ur post and have made my life so much easier - well done!!!! BTW, I hardly think ur neglecting everyone, it is really hard to keep up with everyone, try as you might! There is a H*LL of a lot of girls in here!!! We really need to get some BFPs in here and bombard that PAML thread - I'm sure they won't mind cos we're a great bunch!!! As for ur watery discharge query, i can't shed any light sorry!!! Take care sweet, not long for u now!!

jodsan - WOW!!!!!!! That is so !!!! Very excited for u sweet (quietly of course!!). When will u test again?

mel A - it does sound like it's too early - especially with those symptoms? when will u test again?????

Katie - how r u feelin honey? how far along now?

smilanatu - and everyone else (that's around 25 others according to Jen - bless u hun!!) - huge hugs as always and keep well!!

bday buddy - we r certainly "getting jiggy with it" (thankyou Mr W Smith). but, don't laugh, we just couldn't do it last night, we tried but we were just so tired!!! so i have a major rise in temp today so think that one more jiggy tonight could count for something and then maybe rest up
take care sweet!!!

Hey Angel xx
Hey Laura xx
Hey all you lovely ladies xx

Yep, am still lurking and am here to throw a tonne or two of over everyone and wish you all good luck. It's a damned fine idea to have a mass exodus of this thread and all head over to PAML. I'll come with you then, cos I still can't go over yet!!

Just got back from visiting the parents and the in-laws on a quick overnight trip. We didn't really want to go as it's a 4 hour drive each way. Took us 6 and a half hours to get back due to bloomin' traffic jams and road works so an early night is in order.

I am ok at the moment (not too stressy) adn we'll be 13 weeks pg tomorrow. Got midwife on Wednesday so hope to hear bubs heartbeat again.. then I really will feel ok. Completely identify with those feeling anxious as the days tick by and the weeks crawl along. Constant worry at the back of my mind, and a little prayer every time I visit the bathroom that all will be 'normal' Hey ho! Chin up and looking forward...

Best wishes and love to all- so looking forward to having these POAS confirmed and some new ones in the pipeline. Good luck xx

[smilanatu]

OKay...I am officially feeling discouraged...low backache...dull ache in pevis...*****y...emotional...all PMS symptoms. No more sore bbs...no more pink discharge...just plain ol' icky feelin' at this point...

[GiiGii]

Hello everyone. I'm new here and wanted to ask a question to those who have had an early miscarriage (5-6 weeks). How soon after the miscarriage did you have your first period?

It's been 3 weeks for me and the waiting is driving me crazy. My doctor told me it should take 2-4 weeks. To make matters worse, I've been nauseous for the past three days and extremely tired. I took a pregnancy test today which was negative. Has anyone else had symptoms like this as their body healed from the miscarriage?

Thanks so much. I'm sorry that I don't know the short hand and have to type everything out. Hopefully I'll learn soon.

[mollycat]

Welcome GiiGii - sorry about your loss, but you've come to the right place, the girls here are really supportive and helped me through some of my worst days, you just feel like one of a very special family.
My loss was at 8 weeks, my first AF was exactly four weeks later, but for everyone it varies.
There is a thread that shows all the shorthand.
I hope your stay here is a very short one. Be gentle on yourself and give yourself and your body time to recover.
smilanatu - hope that naughty witch doesn't turn up for your - your symptons have been really good
Betty - Yay, that's good news, won't be long now
nickster - glad to see you still pop in - wow 13 weeks, wonderful won't be long until your belly gets really FAT.
Jen - all our fingers are crossed for you. maybe you could be the leader when we all cross over to PAML

[smilanatu]

Welcome GiiGii...I am so sorry about your loss...I am sure you'll find much comfort here.

It really varies and is dependent on your body as to when AF will arrive. I m/c and had a D & C December 19th 2007 and AF didn't return until March 1st 2008.

Goodluck TTC! I hope AF arrives quickly for you.

[jen805]

nickster--Glad you're still lurking and things are going so well for you! 13 wks--woo hoo!

smilanatu-- It's not over till AF shows! You've had so many promising signs, so don't give up hope yet! Did you try POAS just in case?

GiiGii--Welcome to BB... I'm so sorry for your loss My cycle started 25 days after my m/c (at 8wks.). Of course it's different for every woman, but 2-4 weeks sounds about the norm. I'm sure it will happen so, but I know exactly how frustrating it can be to wait for it to happen! I personally didn't experience any nausea, but it might be a good idea to call your dr. to make sure all is well. I was, however, extremely tired--but your body is completely out-of-whack right now, so that's to be expected. I hope you find the support that you need here! You're in my thoughts and prayers!
