TTC After a Loss

Cramping..then nothing!

What an absolute let down! I had my normal before period cramping..I even broke out, then nothing!! I know it can take a long while for my cycle to come back. I even had to take motrin yesterday for the cramping. Soooo annoying.

Re: Cramping..then nothing!

  • I am sorry :( I just wanted to say I totally know the feeling. It is hard not knowing what is going on with our cycles! I am over a week late, but keep having all the signs like AF is arriving but nothing. Several BFN's and a few cramps later I'm still waiting. I am going to call my Ob/Gyn and see if they can give me any feedback. There are several of us struggling with this right now, so I might post what they say. Just hang in there! ((HUGS))

  • Good luck to you!! I hope your waiting turns into a BFP! This is the first time in my life I am just praying and hoping for AF to visit. That will be one cycle down, one more of TTA, then we can move to TTC.

  • Thanks! These first cycles after the loss have been the most confusing. I hope your AF gets here soon, too.

    I'm wondering where AF is for me, too. I'm glad I started temping this month (thanks ladies!! who suggested starting now when I first asked a few weeks ago), because now I am pretty sure that I did ovulate and am in the luteal phase...and that AF should be here any day now (like today. or tomorrow).

    I already have an appt with a new doctor on Monday (a preconception w/ a new OB), and I figure if AF does not show by then, I will certainly be asking him about it.  But I am hoping that won't be necessary... (c'mon AF just show up!  btw, I did poas this morning on the off chance that protection failed; bfn as expected). 

    I am hoping that won't be necessary either! Have you already had a cycle? I have no need to POAS..my husband is great and we have cuddled and kissed..but have not had sex since our loss Embarrassed I feel bad for him and have told him that, but he says he loves me and will wait as long as I need him to. I have a feeling I may be pushing it. I have wanted to be close to him but just not wanted to have sex. It sounds lame, even to me. I just want everything back on track!

    I'm having the same exact thing happen!  (My D&C was on 12/28).   I was getting massive cramps, moody, breakout, etc.  I'm travelling for work right now, and I was so convinced it was starting that I've been wearing a pad during my work meetings just in case.  An entire week and nothing.  Not sure what's going on, but I'm hoping I start soon.

    Sending AF dust your way!
