  • I've finally stopped bleeding. Still got bloody tender boobs though. Just going to try and forget about any symptoms and just ride the storm this month and test when AF is due/late rather than earlier.

    I inputted all my data since January into one app and so that gives me a whole week of possible fertile days and a big ov window. Busy week for us then, poor OH ;)

    Butterfly & Firebird sorry the witch got you.

    Millie fx for tomorrow.

    Pretty certain I oved on Saturday, which is quite early for me (cd9). I can only presume that my body is still trying to get into some kind of regular cycle since actually starting to ov again. Weird thing is it seems to be the right ovary again (I get very strong ov pains), but as long as I'm oving I suppose I shouldn't complain.

    Thanks for those who have passed on OPK tips I appreciate it :)
    I've spent a bit of time reviewing the past few cycles on my app and it appears I have found a pattern. The first time I MC the 3rd AF after it was 5days late then the cycle after we got caught again which too ended in MC and then this is 3 cycles later when I've been 5 days late again. I'm wondering if it takes my body 3 cycles to regulate itself each time.

    Sorry to those who AF has arrived with, sending lots of baby dust all round :)

    Well a day after AF stopped I had brown spotting which is really unusual for me. AF was shorter than normal and I hardly had any bleeding, which again is unusual for me. I can't help but think is this connected to the fact that this was a longer than normal cycle at 44 days.

    I'm still umming and ahhing about whether to go to the Dr and see if they'll prescribe me the metformin but also wondering whether I should get this unusual cycle checked out. There doesn't appear to be any regularity with my cycles which I know is probably because of the PCOS but then again I can't help but feel like I should be grateful that I actually have some sort of cycle when I've spent a good number of months since my very first AF with AF not arriving at all. I don't know what to do for the best.

    I think it doesn't help I'm having a particularly bad couple of weeks. AF arrived when I honestly thought I'd be getting a BFP. Another pg announcement didn't help. And I've been really tearful that I should have been on maternity leave now enjoying the nice weather spending time with my family. And here was me thinking I was doing better.

    ETA: I don't even know if I am OV, I'm just going off CM which even though it's present and AF arrives 14 days later doesn't confirm I released an egg.

    Sorry for the rant and the selfish post.

    Hi Athens

    Don't worry about ranting, your post didn't seem selfish to me. If it's any reassurance my cycles have really changed post mc. TMI alert but I've also had much shorter bleeds, then a day of nothing then several days of brown spotting. My cycles have been shorter rather than longer though (but I averaged about 42 days pre mc).

    I can't tell you what to do re the GP, but I know I put off seeing them last year and wish I'd gone sooner.

    Sorry you've had a rubbish couple of weeks too, it's only natural with everything you've described. It's ok to still feel upset. I keep having to remind myself of that too.
