I apologize if I am on the wrong thread here,I couldnt find one that quite fitted my current status. So it has been over a year since I last was active on here. Although not planned, I had a BFP in August last year....sadly that ended in a missed miscarriage I had to take the abortion pill to 'clear' my uterus and I was not warned of the potential pain involved, it ended up being a night in hospital and lots of pain relief and an awful lot of stress and heartache. They also discovered some small uterine fibroids. We got through it and still going strong as a couple.
In August, I went to the doctor regarding hormonal problems, weight gain etc. I had been on Cerezette for about 4 years and noticed rapid weight gain, he took bloods and Thyroid etc was all normal. So he advised that I came off the pill for at least 3 months so he could then take bloods to check for things like PCOS ( he said he cant test for things like that whilst on the pill). I am due to go back for more bloods in December/ January. This obviously raised the question as to whether I might have PCOS or similar and that is the cause of the MC...who knows.
So, I have now been off the pill for 2 months, I had a withdrawal bleed on 26th September (5 weeks after stopping the pill) which only lasted about 3 days. I had my first 'proper period' starting 23rd October which lasted 6 full days. So, I am expecting AF to arrive either on Sunday or Monday. We are not actively TTC but have agreed that if it happens then it happens....it wouldnt be the most ideal time right now as I just started a new job. We are taking precautions as far as he is 'pulling out' on my supposedly 'infertile days' and we use condoms for around 5 days around the time I should ovulate. However, we do occasionally get carried away, particularly over the last 4 days or so...I believe I should have ovulated about 1 week ago, but usually 10 days or so before AF arrives I get very heavy, sore boobs....I have had nothing this month at all and today I see I have EWCM....which prompted me to look to you ladies for advice! I am not too sure what is going on. Have I not ovulated at all, am I ovulating now? Am I pregnant? I think it is unlikely I am pregnant as my previous experience I had extremely sore and rapidly growing boobs.
My periods are usually regular, when on the pill I did not have periods at all but prior to thats they were regular and annoyingly heavy!
Sorry for the essay and thanks in advance for any advice at all.
