TTC After a Loss

TWW. Anyone else?

edited November 2015 in TTC After a Loss
Currently 4dpo. Is anyone else on this schedule? We had so much sex last week I am really (cautiously) hopeful.

Looking for cycle buddy to share the stress of the TWW. :)

Re: TWW. Anyone else?

  • I'm hoping to ovulate soon cm is watery and got flashy smiley on my clearblue
  • Waiting on temp spike but I'm probably at about the same place as you.
  • Loading the player...
  • Good luck to you!  We did the same thing...like 5 days straight...then I O'd late... UGH!!  It was so overwhelming and annoying.  I did finally O, which I am thankful for and am going to take a test tomorrow.  With my loss I got a positive test at 7DPO...hoping for another tomorrow.
  • I ovulated on the 13th too!!!
  • I am really hoping for a BFP this month. It's my hub's bday at 9dpo and maybe I can have good news for him. It would be amazing.

    @mrsmommya same here. I even flew to meet him while he was on a business trip to DTD and then ended up o'ing late anyway. Damn. Kind of funny though. The lengths we are willing to go to get pregnant! Haha.

  • We did the same thing! 3 days in a row, skipped a day, then 2 days in a row, then skipped a day yesterday (not intended, was out of our control because....friends and family) then again today. I'm a little thrown because my ovulation signs are giving me mixed signals. Based on CM and CP, I should have ovulated around Thursday, but I got negative OPKs until Friday. Positive OPKs Friday, Saturday, and today. No temp spike yet. I don't know if/when it happened, and the inability to predict anything right now is killing me! As long as it wasn't an anovulatory cycle, surely we got the timing right at some point with all that sex! I really hope I get a temp spike in the morning.
  • @ThursdayMorning, WOW! That is some major commitment! I hope it worked!
  • @kmmharrison did you ever confirm ovulation?

    I realized I am flying to be with DH family next week. I'll be POAS while staying with them. Ha. Will need to get creative on sneaking away to test and hiding them. (And hopefully sneak celebrating with DH?!) Trying not to get too hopeful.
  • @ThursdayMorning Temp spiked Sunday morning. I finally got my crosshairs on FF today but not on OvaGraph yet. And my lines are dotted :( I have some conflicting data.

    I think I did ovulate, but I think it was earlier than the charts are saying. I usually have a gradual rise then a big spike. Didn't this time but temp dropped on CD16 or I would have. DH was not at home that night and it was cold in our room. We usually sleep touching each other so I think that temp is not really accurate.

    Also, we didn't get to BD Saturday because we had my family staying with us Friday night and then friends staying with us Saturday night. No chance to sneak away. Also his friends (who act like children when they get together) kept him out all night! If I'm not pregnant this month, I'm going to be mad at his friends who kept him out!

    Well...let's just say I'm already mad at them because 1. They kept my husband out all night because he didn't want them to have a wreck trying to drive home and 2. My temp data is messed up and 3. That might have been my peak day but now I don't know and 4. I worried all night and 5. They need to grow up! It's hard on DH trying to be the responsible one. I'm usually pretty understanding, but this time I was/am not happy.

    So, yes I confirmed ovulation but I'm not 100% sure when it happened. Glad we had a lot of sex last week! Hopefully we timed one right!

  • @kmmharrison I was right where you were this entire month.  My monitor gave me high readings at like CD9 - which I knew was wrong but thought heck...maybe, they do say your cycles can be wonky after a loss.  Then I could never get a positive opk...past when I usually O.  DH and I were HIO all the time and some performance issues added to the stress.  Then I finally got a positive opk and then FF said I O'd before my last positive OPK, which I know is possible, just annoying.  I was also drinking heavily some weekends which meant for elevated temps...of course one of them being right around O so I could be 9DPO today or 10DPO...if I add a low temp in the one I missed it changes from CD21 to CD20...ugh who cares.

    With my temp drop today I am sure AF is on her way so I am sure we are out either way....talk about EXAHUSTING!!!
  • @AL_TwinCities thanks! Hugs right back atcha! :smile:

    @mrsmommya That sounds so similar to me! It's so frustrating! I even passed on the drinking because I didn't want to mess up my temps and then they got messed up anyway. I'm starting to think this whole TTC thing was a lot less frustrating when we were just using CM, ovulation pain, and my calendar to time BD. But now that I've read TCOYF, I can't not chart. It's like I'm obsessed with it! I'm so sorry your temp dropped! :( Maybe you were breathing through your mouth and it will go back up.
  • Wow. I don't temp because I know I'd become obsessive about it. I already put so much pressure on DH as it is!

    Maybe I should start if this month doesn't work out. It's just frustrating because with my MC pregnancy, we got pregnant the second month. I guess I assumed it would be easy to get pregnant again. Sigh.
  • Yeah. We got pregnant fairly easily with the baby we lost, too. Only 3rd month trying. I'm so afraid it will take a long time to conceive again.
    But, we've made it at least half way through our TWWs by now. That's good! We will all know something soon!
  • I guess I'm in TWW: FF isn't too sure. I got dotted CHs and I guess that is as good as it's getting this cycle. If FF is correct about my O day I'm currently 5DPO.

    I'm currently on my 9th day of EWCM and my temps have been suspiciously low "post-O." But then it's the first month after my MC so I suppose my hormones are still kinda wonky. I'm not sure what I expected really.

    @ThursdayMorning: My DH's birthday will fall on 9DPO for me also this month. And Thanksgiving. I'm really hoping for a good birthday present for him and something for which we can both be very thankful. :)

  • I'm also in my TWW, O'd on the 13th (CD14) so I'm 9 dpo. With my loss, I got a faint positive at 10dpo (first month TTC) and I had myself convinced up until that point that I wasn't KU.

    This cycle (1st cycle TTCAL), I of course am feeling the same way- totally thinking I'm not pregnant and convincing myself every potential symptom is just something else. I have had elevated temps that haven't really gone down at all, and I have IBS with constipation, but have had to use the bathroom a lot lately (sorry, TMI!). I'm due for my period on Thanksgiving, I would love to see a BFP before having to see tons of family for the holiday. Just hoping and praying for my rainbow baby!! Baby dust to everyone.

  • Oh yay!!! Congratulations @ThursdayMorning! Such exciting news to be thankful for this week!
  • Oh! YAY @allishally13!!!! What wonderful news!

    Y'all are making me so eager to test, but DH hid the pregnancy test from me. I told him we have to wait til Black Friday at least, but I really want to test now! According to FF, I'm 9DPO, but I think O was a little earlier than that and temps were off. I'm having symptoms similar to when I was KU before. Anyone else have a few more days? It's killing me! :smile:
  • It sounds like a few of us are on the same schedule (pretty sure I O'd either on the 16th or 17th). 
    Yay for the TWW! I kind of want to test on Thanksgiving, but I'm about 97% sure that it'll be too early.

  • The struggle is real, y'all! As the weekend draws closer, the urge to POAS is getting stronger and stronger! Ugh!!!

    I have to write a paper for grad school, make food for Thanksgiving gatherings, we're dog sitting for my parents, and we are painting our sunroom. You'd think all that going on would keep my mind off of it, but no. If I test too early and get a BFN (hopefully it would be a false BFN), I'll be all cranky for Thanksgiving and won't get my paper done.

    Two more days! I can make it!

    I will not POAS until my paper is done....I will not POAS until my paper is done...I will not POAS until my paper is done...haha!
