Hi ladies, been reading silently for a while. My gynae remains optimistic after my recent miscarriage, he said, it proves we are capable of conceiving naturally, while researching TTC after miscarriage, I came upon this -
http://www.pregnancyloss.info/sperm_meets_egg_plan.htm
It's a plan that's been developed for couples suffered miscarriages to maximise the chance of fertilization and conception. Just thought I'd share it here.
The Sperm Meets Egg Plan
- "Try" every other night starting Day 8
- Buy 10 ovulation predictor kit sticks
- Begin ovulation testing on Day 10
- When test is positive, "try" that night, plus two additional nights in a row
- Skip one night, then do one last "try"
- Take a home pregnancy test 15 days after your ovulation test was positive, if your period has not begun
- If your ovulation test never goes positive, continue "trying" every other night until Day 35, then do a pregnancy test if your period has not begun.
Statistics coming in from women who write me show that about 40% of post-miscarriage women will get pregnant on the first try if they are faithful to the plan, about double the number of the normal population who are not on the plan. This assumes, of course, that you waited for a normal cycle to begin after your loss, and did not begin trying before having a period after a miscarriage. Many women do not ovulate in that first cycle.
Apparently the success rate is about 40% among couples who have suffered mc before, best wishes to those who are TTC-ing now!
By the way, any idea how to report a spammer in the forum?
