How long did it take you after you lost the baby? I have heard it makes you more fertile but didn’t know if it was an old wives tale. X

I misscarried on the 18th of march at 5 weeks pregnant and I had my first positive pregnancy test on the 12th of may with this bub! Nobody told me to wait a few months to conceive and the pregnancy is ( touch wood) going perfectly. Pregnant with a little boy
I see it as if I hadn’t unfortunately lost the baby in march I wouldn’t be having my little boy now. Yes everyone told me I’d be more fertile straight after!xxBobbleowl90

And this is going to sound so so so brutal and I’m sorry if it offends anyone but I wish I had this honesty when I was going through it. I don’t think about that pregnancy, I don’t get sad over that pregnancy because I have my little boy now. Yes that sounds bad but soon as you get that positive all your focus goes into this new baby. It may be different for other people but that’s how it was for me. You will get your rainbow baby I know itCongratulations and that gives me hope for myself

I don’t believe in this kind of thing but had it done to humour my friend for her birthday, but had a fertility reading back in Jan and she told me August and May were significant for us - likely to conceive in the August cycle and give birth in May. I’ll technically have two cycles that count as August as I was CD1 on 1st and my cycles are 28 days, but keeping everything crossed for this one. My next period is due on my OHs birthday so it would be amazing to be able to surprise him with a positive test, rather than being on my period

Some people have a really quick surge, other peoples are longer or even twice! There’s so much variation between women and even between cycles.
quite interesting reading here: https://www.avawomen.com/avaworld/long-lh-surge-last/

Hope you’re all well and keeping those chins up. Today is my birthday and I’m now officially trying for a geriatric pregnancy. I’m 2DPO and I’m really hoping this is my month, I’m getting a little tired of the anxiety now.
I have quick surges. I think I may have also caught my temp dip for ovulation this month which has ruined my beautiful chart
I also have two cycles this month!

I’ve just got back from my scan which has confirmed a chemical pregnancy. The nurse told me to wait two weeks for a negative test then can’t try again until I’ve had a period. However, I know people who’ve conceived two weeks after a MC or CP, so why is it that they advise against it?
She also said I’m able to use progesterone pesseries next time to help make the pregnancy stick - has anyone here used these? She said there was no negatives, only benefits.
Thank you x

I’m so sorry to hear of your loss
the reason they advise waiting for your period is it makes it easier to date a pregnancy if you do fall pregnant straight away - don’t let it put you off if you feel emotionally and physically ready to try again straight away.

So sorry, I had a chemical myself in June. We were advised we could try immediately so we did and it didn’t happen this time so now onto this month
I wasn’t offered any pessaries but after doing research it seems chemicals are very common and many women go on to have successful pregnancies so hopefully everything will be ok
If you feel ready to try immediately go for it! Hope you are ok.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's such a hard thing to go through any form of baby loss so please mind yourself and be gentle on yourself.
I can't offer any advice with regards to progesterone. I had a miscarriage in March at 9 weeks and while I wasn't told anything about having to wait before TTC again, as far as I know it makes it hard to date a new pregnancy and it can make it hard to tell if it's a new pregnancy that you're potentially testing positive with or if it's left over HCG causing a positive pregnancy test. Mind yourself though, it can be a lot both physically and mentally

CD1 again 
I honestly thought we had a chance this month.

I can't find an IVF thread so I hope this is okay on here as I just want to rant. I cant help but feel so guilty and to blame the last few days. I feel like all this is my fault and we wouldn't have to go through IVf if it wasn't for me and my conditions. What makes it harder is going through it so soon into a relationship and putting stress on us both which an average new couple probably wouldn't have, all because my low egg count. I feel like if I don't do this now, I'm gonna miss out on having my own kids when older and kick myself but I'm so worried all this stress will put my partner off. I just wish we didn't have to do this so soon, I just feel like it's all my fault. Second to this my best mates have been pigshit this last week, the time I've needed them the most only 1 friend has actually been there. The others have not bothered to message at all even though I've told them whata going on. I just feel so lonely and tit. I want a hug. I'm just sat in my car crying my eyes out, I don't even want to go in the house. Just wish all this anxiety and stress would go away and I had some control over the future, oh wouldn't that be nice
big hugs to you all on here, I'm sure there's someone out there who'll need it tonight like myself ❤❤❤

Maybe have a chat with your partner and let them know you need some support as your friends have let you down. I’m sure he will understand! IVF is really tough, there’s a lot to deal with on the mental health side as well xxx

Sending you all the love and hugs. I completely understand the crying in the car bit, I've been there and had to put on a happy face walking through the door.
