Hi Ladies, can I come back?
Well I joined here some time ago after coming off the pill last September, just after we got married. I fell pregnant in the January, but unfortunately we suffered a missed miscarriage in March and I oped to have an ERPC. It was a truly tough, emotional and distressing time, it would have been our first baby - (read my other posts - its a bit of a long story to post again).
Anyway, I have had 3 periods since then, April, May and June. I really thought we had cracked it this month as we decided to try the SMEP (Sperm Meets Egg Plan), but was not to be, and I came on
My periods have been heavier than normal, and also a little longer, around 31-32 days instead of 28. I have seen the doc who says this is fine and not really anything to worry about.
So, basically, I'm back here TTC again. I have read of some people falling straight away after a miscarriage and for others it takes time. I hope it happens soon for us, in fact I hope we all get our BFPs soon!
Babydust to you all.
Love & Light

PS: Is anyone else having a go at the SMEP??

My cycles are also longer too, 34 days my last one was and i'm now cd18 and no ov yet
I keep saying i'll try SMEP but i can't wait 2 days between bd sometimes lol (sorry tmi)! I start off well but come cd10 i'm pouncing on OH every night just in case!
Good luck and really hope you get your BFP soon

Lady2188 you made me laugh. I'm on CD8 tomorrow so first night of trying the SMEP again. It's hard isn't it, especially as when I saw the doc, he said you should try and save up the sperm so to speak before ovulation, so everyone says something different! Confused.com
What's all your views on this, would be interested to know.

But then there's a lady over in ttc after mc and she swears that she got her bfp this month because they bd'd so much so i guess there's no set rule. I think as long as your having regular sex then it should be ok.
But then here i am still waiting for a sticky BFP. It's funny how the excitement of ttc soon wears off eh?!

Before my mc i was ov'ing on cd14 with a 28 day cycle- textbook really! It's really frustrating!
Are you tracking ov?

Good luck to you too hun, hope to see your bfp announcement soon!

Good luck and nice to have you back, although I hope you dont stay here too long x
I am currently on cd12 and usually ov on cd15.
I have always thought bd'ing every other day is the best as the sperm is not too old but developed well. Also means if you cant bd on ov then you have reserve from the last time.
OH and I have decided its best he does not know when im ov'ing as its too much pressure on him, therefore we need to bd reg or he will guess when I jump him
I wish you all the luck in the world hun xxx
Glad to hear your feeling better after your mmc hun, nice to see you back in TTC.
Hope you get a speedy sticky BFP this time.
Am still here onto Month 7 now cant believe its taking so long!!

SD - have been following your posts, what a nitemare you have been through. Really hope you manage to get things sorted soon.
3054 - I remember you too - glad your cycles are getting back to normal. Let's hope its our month this month, eh!
Babylove - you made me laugh - my hubby knows all about my ovulation, so if I pounce on him - he knows why!!
Its going to be a HOT HOT HOT weekend and we are off for a picnic tomorrow! Can't wait! Have a great weekend everyone.
Love & Light
