Trying again after a miscarriage

Hi everyone,

I'm new here and was actually looking for stories about my experience, but couldn't find them, so I'll share mine.

I stopped the pill in May. Got my period in June. End of August, a positive pregnancy test . My husband and I were over the moon, of course.

At 7 weeks, I got light bleeding that just wouldn't stop. Every time I wiped. I called the midwife, but she said I had to come in at 8 weeks.

Had an ultrasound at 8 weeks, but the midwife told me I was probably only 5 weeks pregnant. Found that quite strange. But it was great to get a photo.

That same night, I had really bad stomach pain. And sure enough.. the next morning, lost a ton of blood. Got an emergency ultrasound. A miscarriage..

But we moved on right away. Our desire for a child is huge. Had a short cycle of 25 days in September and October.

My last period was November 9th. I decided to use ovulation tests for the first time. I didn't know much about them, but thought they worked the same as a pregnancy test. I bought the ones from Kruidvat (7 pcs). I tested on Nov 19th, and sure enough.. Positive! I thought...

I was just googling, and saw a lot of bad experiences with the Kruidvat tests! I'm really driving myself crazy.. I'm reading other people's experiences all day. Have you also had experience with these ovulation tests?

I really had stomach pain last night myself. Menstrual-like pain, with occasional twinges. I'm paying attention to every little thing I feel

Greetings, Aisje
