Hi Everyone, apologies in advance as I think this might be a bit long. I miscarried naturally on 22/12/11. A scan on 19/12 showed my baby had stopped growing at 6 +1, I should have been 9 +6. The bleeding stopped fairly quickly and me and OH have been BD ing regularly since 29/12/11. On 03/01/12 I got what appeared to be a dark pos OV test but I'm not sure if it may still have been left over pregnancy hormones. I got a BFN on 09/01 so I think my hormones are pretty much to normal. Then on Tuesday I started bleeding again, reddish brown. I thought it was AF but then yesterday and today there has just been some brown spotting. No cramps or anything. Do you think this could be an inplantation bleed? It's pretty similar to what happened with my DD. Have also been having random dreams and headaches which again happened with my last 2 pregnancies. Or do you think I'm getting my hopes up and it's too soon and it's just a strange AF or left over bleeding from MC? Going by that OV test I think I am around 9/10 DPO at the moment. Thanks for reading, any advice would be much appreciated. xx

Hello autumn, sorry for your loss.

It is very possible that this is implantation bleeding. If it was left over from pg you pg test should test positive.

Fc for you and really hope u get a positive result. When will u test? X

Hi hun, thanks for replying, I remember you from Due in July, I really wish things could have turned out differently for both of us, how are you doing? I really hope this is an inplantation bleed, I keep reading how you are supposed to be super fertile following a MC so fingers crossed for us both huh? I am desperate to test (Offical POAS addict here!!) but I am going to try and hold off until early next week. I have 2 CBD but I know they aren't all that sensitive, might cave and buy a 1st response or a superdrug test if I cant wait. What about you, are you TTC again?

Im not to bad nowthanks. I had the ERPC on 23rd Dec and think I had a positive OPK last week and managed to dtd around the right time so we are def ttc again. I did become a touch obssessed with POAS to check if HCG had gone though so I am forcing myself to step away from the tests until atlease the 20th Jan and even then it would be early testing.

I have heard you are super fertile after MC to so really hoping this is the case but trying not to get my hopes up if you know what I mean.

I know everyone says the CBD arnt that sensitive but I was still getting a bfp on those when ebay cheapies were def negative and they are supposed to be more sensitive. Maybe I had a dodgy batch . I have a CBD , first response and a new batch of ebay cheapies waiting( OMG I need help lol)

Your syptoms do sound positive though, the vivid dreams I also had with my DS and with the last pregnancy so I do believe they are a really good indicator.

I have heard a fair few positive stories of ladies becoming pg without a true period after MC so keeping everything crossed this applys to us as well.

As we will be around the same testing date do you want to set an 'official' date and be strong and avoid the tests until then together? xx

That would be good, I have some Poundland cheapies which I was using until I got BFN, Dont worry about testing too much I did ahem....19 tests with my last pregnancy - I just had to keep checking that it was for real! I will try and hold out until the 20th - it would actually be really nice to have someone to chat to who is in the same boat. If anyone else is reading this please feel free to join us! Keeping everything crossed for both of us hun.
xx

im defo in same boat, wee bit late than you though, had MC on 31st, stopd bleeding on 5th and have been at it since haha! my ovulation calander say high dates are 12-14th so we shall be rtying and i will not be testing till after my time of month has defo been late as tested before and got postive 5 weeks preg n then period came late and wipe out my wee bean hoep u ladie all ok x

I actually laughed out loud! 19 tests! Excellent that breaks my record! The earliest I have ever tested was 7 dpo , why , I will never know it was of course bfn.

Just a thought, does an urgent need for cheese crisps and choc count as symptom of pg or af coming? Or am I just being a pig? I really have to pull my socks up stop filling my face and get back to the gym. I have put so much on over Christmas.

Lisa hi again, if my test is bfn on 20th and af doesn't arrive I will end up testing on a similar date to u. How u feeling now?

Keep us updated with symptoms I hope we will all be lucky ladies on testing day x x

Well I'm.ok, on.healthy eating and at gym and swimming few times a week. Trying the special K thing aswell, going not too bad, ill be testing 20th, that's when my calendar says x

Soz mines is 24th

Anything out of the ordinary could be a symptom - for me it's pizza - everytime I'm PG I comepletely go off it, but never have any other cravings. In fact I've decided that as chocolate is practically a food group on it's own it should really count towards our 5 a day lol!! I have tried a failed so many times to lose weight Its so hard so I have nothing for admiration for anyone who can go to the gym regularly although I am trying to look after myself a bit more this time. I know they say there's nothing you can really do to prevent a mc but I still have that little lingering doubt...but hey ho just gotta keep looking forward I guess. Best of luck to you both, lets make sure we keep each other posted on how we are doing, fingers crossed and sticky baby dust to us all.

Hmmm! Small Amy of bleeding tonight. Implantation or body playing cruel trick. Been cramping fairly badly this evening too. Felt like trapped wind though but it wasn't. Fc x

I've been.feeling very sick like last time, surely not if ur only maybe a few days pg

Hi ,

Autumn - sorry af arrived - bloody witch I hope she is polite and lleaves never to return soon.

I naughtily tested this morning - BFN - abt 11 / 12 dpo I think but not sure at all now.

Lisa - its all down to you hun good luck xx

aw that sux Blue, maybe just a late bloomer, im not about 4dpo and itching to test haha but i hae to wait till at least 10, been having loads of cramps so not sure if still body going back to normal, was swimming twice yesterday and went to a step clas, ohya that was intense! im a little sore today, mostly in the tummy area!! xx

hi just thought i would have a nosey down all the other forums i have experienced.

i don't want to come across as mean but are you not supposed to wait until you have had at least 1 normal cycle before ttc again, i had a miscarriage at 10 wks and was told to wait until the bleeding had completely stopped, then wait for a normal cycle, usually about 6-8 wks. conceiving too quickly increases your chances of having another miscarriage or having a problematic pregnancy??!! xxx

nah not atal charlm, the only reason docs ask you to wait till the next period is for dating reasons, theres no proof that conceving after a m.c makes it any diff that conceving any other time, maybe after ur further along in ur pregnancy when you m.c like 10-30weeks or more, but more for your own health rather than babys as your bod not back to normal, but when u have a m.c so early on it isnt as neccissary as later xx

Lisa is really is down to u think witch is arriving. What day u testing?
Charlm the only reason ur advised to wait is for dating purposes and psychological reasons but if u. Feel physically and mentally ready then its fine. No additional risk in fact ur supposed to be more fertile after mc. I checked with hospital at time of mc before we decided to try straight away. X x

no idea haha will be testing on the 23th xx
