Hi! - Intro and a question

[mrssqueegy]

Hi PAL!  I hope it is okay that I introduce myself over here.  I think I'm more of an uncommon situation for a PALer as we already have DS who is 2.5 but unfortunately discovered our missed m/c last week at 8w3d.  I had a D&C last Thursday and have been doing okay since.

A little bit about me:  I was active on TTGP and 3T before DS came and then was very active on his BMB.  I came over to TCF during the mass exodus and was active on my new BMB until our loss and have been posting on PL/CAL since our loss.  I thought this board might be a nice place to hang out as well because of DS.  I'm busy studying for a big exam right now so I like to have TCF as a study break/procrastination tool.  We live up in the Great White North (Canada) and are really looking forward to spring coming so we can get back outside.

As for my question - Did your average temps change after your loss, either lower or higher?  Or did your temps and coverlines stay about the same?

Anyway, thanks for having me (if you will!).

Hi, welcome - I'm so sorry about your recent loss...

I don't honestly really remember if my temps changed after loss (and I would totally go check out FF to look and see, but I'm trying to avoid it for the next week or so! lol)
from what I can recall, the coverline stayed about the same, maybe increased by 0.01-0.03 of a degree...

Hi there. I had my miscarriage after my son was born, too, so you definitely have some company here in that regard. I'm sorry for your loss.

If I ever O and get a coverline, I'll be able to answer that part of your question, but this is my first cycle temping since DS and ovulation remains elusive. My pre-O temps are about the same now as they were before DS was born, but I didn't temp between DS's birth and my loss or immediately after my loss, so that's probably not very useful information. Sorry I can't be more of help!

Thank you!  I totally get staying away from FF.  Keep away!

Hi mrssqueegy. I've been thinking of you, and I'm glad to hear the D&C went okay. I'm so glad you found your way over here. I was in your shoes too, when I had my losses, because I already had a little guy at home who needed me in the midst of my heart breaking. I hope that the community here can continue to help you heal.

I didn't really learn about temping until we started trying after our losses, so I can't help you with that. But on another note, please feel free to tell me if my siggy is hard to deal with. Since we shared a BMB, I realize it may be extra hard to see that stuff, so I want to respect you with that. I can totally make it a clicky spoiler.

Hi hun.  Thank you for your concern.  Honestly your siggy doesn't bother me at all.  I didn't intro over here until I knew I would be okay with pregnancies and babies because I know there are people here in all stages.  It means so much to me that you care enough to offer to change it.

Thank you for your reply!  I've only been temping for a few days now but my temps are still really high (like my previous post O temps) but my pee stick was still positive yesterday.  I'm wondering if my temps will go down once all the bHCG is out of my systems or if this is my new pre O temp norm for now.  I'm guessing they will go back down at some point.

Hello! I'm so sorry for your loss. My miscarriage was when my son was almost 2 so I understand where you're coming from. Big hugs.

I think it's normal for temps to take a little while to go back to normal, especially if you're still getting +hpts. Hang in there.

Hello and welcome! I'm very sorry for your loss. Unfortunately I can't answer your question because I didn't temp after either of my losses. I hope that you can find what you need here. ((HUGS))

I am so very sorry for your loss. Welcome!

Hello,I am sorry for your loss. I can't say if my temps changed after my first loss because I was not tempting before then, but they didn't change,after the second.
