TTC after Miscarriage or Loss ~ Dec 07/Jan 08

[ll80]

HI everyone

I didn't end up needing to get any tests so that was alright.
Doctor recommended waiting about 3 mths before trying again. Which is about the timeframe I was thinking anyways.
Looks like we will be moving in the next week, so plenty to keep me occupied between now and then.

When I get back to Melbourne I am going to go to my usual gp and get her to run some tests on me make sure I am all good to start TTC in 3 mths.
Having only just had m/c I am not expecting to get af for another few weeks anyways so it seems like everything is fitting in nicely at the moment.
Except for the fact that I hate moving!!


Good Luck Betty, I hope they get you in asap!!

anthonysmom: LOL!

Leigh26: I'm so sorry for your losses. I"ll keep you in my prayers and sending a big cyberhug

AJC: did you find the maybe baby accurate and in line with temps and cm? I've considered buying one in the past because we chart when we want to TTA, also and wondering if that could be one more tool in our arsenal, LOL! Of course, non of this will be an issue until we actually have another baby, but I'm always looking toward the future...

Angel Babies: never more than a month between end of MC bleed and AF. But we're talking weird cycles with weird temp patterns ie not ovulatory.

Katiegirl: good luck!

bettyboop: pulling for you (as always)

ll80: try not to get too stressed with the move (easier said than done, I know). You want to make yourself good and healthy for next TTC!

BBoop - I'm hearing you. It feels like a slap in the face everytime I see a pregnant woman or hear of someone I know who was "on the pill" and fell pregnant. I know what you mean - you don't regrude them having happiness but it just feels so bad inside for you. Hope you get that appointment soon - I don't think they realise that days feel like weeks.

TempusM - hmmmm. Maybe baby didn't work that well for me, it might work better for you. According to the instructions you are supposed to get a full ferning pattern for around 2 days prior to ovulation. I tend to get ferning for longer than that so it's hard for me to pinpoint it to those crucial days. I hardly use mine now, I ocasionally use it for something to do and to feel like I'm getting my money's worth.

Angel babies: Took af 6 weeks to arrive after first d&c and 4 weeks after 2nd d&c. I think anything up to 8 weeks is considered 'normal' - but I don't like to use the word normal when talking about anything to do with ttc because anything is possible.

ll80 - sounds like you have everything planned nicely. DH and I are so glad we had a break this time. We both feel so much better about things now and it certainly bought the romance back in the bedroom that's for sure Good luck with the moving and don't forget to take time out to spoil yourself so you'll be all relaxed when you ttc again.

KGirl - good luck hope everything works out for ttc at end of Jan. Do you temp? I think temping is the best way to tell if you O or not.
