so discouraged

September 02, 2008

I had a m/c back on Aug 16th. I started to bleed heavily on Aug 18th-24th. It has been 18 days since my last bleed and im soo anxious to get af back. But i have a bad feeling my body won't be the same for some reason. I need some encouraging words. Im so scared i won't get af back:( im feeling down and depressed about this and i need any thoughts from u all. esp. if u had a m/c yourself. thanks ladies!

September 02, 2008

oh jilly. I am sooooo sorry for your loss. I do understand how you feel. I had a m/c as well. my af returned to normal but it took about 2 cycles to become regular again.. rest sweetie, and let me know if you need to talk.

Hi Jilly,

I have had 4 miscarriages the last one was in May,

af came for me exactly 28 days afterwards and has been every 28 days since. I am so sorry for your loss. Its a horrible feeling not knowing when af will come but it will come back soon.

September 02, 2008

Oh, you will get it back - no worries, it just may take awhile :(

I have had 2 m/c's and both times i got AF around 6 weeks after the start of the bleed of the m/c.

THen the following month ovulated right on time so no worries hun!

Thx ladies. I really hope af shows soon. I just went to the bathroom and when i wiped i got EWCM!! now i was a little aroused earlier..LOL but i have since wiped all that out so i didint think it would linger. What im going to do is take an OPK and see what it says. I will let u know! i hope im Oing:)

Hi Jilly

I have had 2 miscarriages, 1 of which I had very recently. AF returned 4 weeks after my mc. It's only my first bleed since my mc. I'm sure your body will get back to normal soon in the meantime you need to recover emotionally. I wish you all the best. HUGS.

September 02, 2008

i ovulated exactly 4 weeks after my last m/c jilly - good luck i hope you are O'ing too!

September 02, 2008

Well the OPK was -. So i think it was still arousel CM from earlier. *sigh* i guess i have to wait on af:(

Hi Jilly,

I am so so sorry you are going through this. My m/c was July 21st and I had a TON of ewcm for like 8 days a few weeks following that. It was crzy!!! I too seriously believed that I would never get AF again. I usually don't get cramps but rather a backache with AF and that usually starts about 2 min before AF shows up. I had an AF backache for about a week and a half, and I was about 6 days late for AF, but she finally reared her ugly head. So don't fear, you will get her. I am still waiting to ovulate again this month (this will be our first month ttc after the m/c) but I am hopeful.

I am sorry we both had to go through this. It completely sucks and is unfair and it makes me so mad, but I guess we have to deal. I hate it too.

You will get AF again, and then hopefully not for another 9 months after that!!!!

All the best!

Thinking of you!!! This is such a good place where you can hear from others who have gone through the same. Wishing you lots of luck!!! HUGS

September 02, 2008

Jilly I had the same worries. After my first m/c I had a d&c and I was petrified my af would never come back. After about 8 weeks it finally did, boy I was never so happy to see her arrive. Hang in there hun :)))

September 02, 2008

Jilly,

Try not to worry. After my miscarriage, AF came exactly 1 month later. I didn't fall pregnant the following month but did the month after that. It will come and you will have another BFP that will stick. Hang in there. We're here for you.

Jill hun... everything will be fine hun. U have to give ur body sometime to heal and get its self back to normal. It can take 1 to 2 months ve4 ur AF get back to normal but I promise u that it will

I know that right now everything seems to be turning out all wrong but it will change hun. U will see that. Try not to rush it and it will happen jsut when ur not thinking about it. I had my M/C awhile ago so I dont remember how long it took for me to get my AF on track but I also had to have 2 D & C's b/c they didnt get it all the 1st time.

I will be thinking and praying for u hun.

September 02, 2008

thx gals. I guess im just anxious to start ttc again. I have to realize it can take up to 6 weeks for af to return. seems like it's taking forever!!! I just want to get back to normal- bottom line.

September 03, 2008

Jilly, I'm in the same boat as you, I miscarried on the 27th of August, just one week ago. I too am desperately waiting to conceive again. Though my doctor didn't mention to wait till AF, she said I can if want to, but its not neccessary. She said if my body was not ready, it would simply not ovulate. DH wants to wait till the 1st AF though, so I want to do what makes him comfortable, but the waiting is killing me too. Who knows, maybe we will get luck y and have our O's at the same time! Here's wishing!

In the mean time, we continue to mourn our beautiful babies that were taken away too soon.

September 04, 2008

Hi Jilly, I too mc just recently. My husband and I were not planning on having another baby, it just happened but nevertheless we were totally devastated when I miscarried. I'm not sure at all if I want another baby as I already have a wonderful family, my dh, a daughter and a son but since my mc I have this yearn to ttc again and it's really taking over my life. I have recovered physically but emotionally I think it's going to take time. I wish you all the very best. HUGS.

September 04, 2008

thank u all ladies. It's amazing and sad- how many of us lost our beautiful babies. in a way im so glad im not alone even though it's a horrible thing to go through. I wish u all the very best in ttc again as well.

I got up today and feel sorta crampy. like af like cramps. we will see if she starts here soon. Im so anxious to get her back and start all over. I will keep u all up to date!!

September 04, 2008

Jiily hun you are strong. I'm am sorry for your loss. I am happy you can regain your strength and start again. I think your body will be fine. It takes time. I'm almost ready to go back to work after my loss and I think it will help me when ttc. Good Luck and Baby Dust
