2013 losses- rainbow baby making thread...

[Sheffie]

my hpt took 2 weeks and 5 days to go negative. So 19 days.

I'm at 18 but on like day 12 I took a test and the preg line was darker than the control... Today the positive line was much lighter, so that is promising at least! Hopefully soon it will be totally negative!

Did you have a natural mc or a d&c?

Did you have a natural mc or a d&c?

D&C - no cramps, no bleeding - but no more heartbeat. My body wasnt ready to give up, but it was already over. I think that is why it's taking a while to get the hormones back to normal.

My first MC was natural at about 6 weeks. My bodys cycle didnt skip a beat. By 7 weeks I had negative HPTs and a period about 30 days after. Hoping this time works the same. Only took a month to get pregnant again after the last one!

Have you girls looked into reflexology to lower your levels? My cousin is trained in pregnancy reflexology and she did a session on me. I think it really helped.

 

[tlk71411]

Reflexology is awesome for a lot of things! I use it on my 14month old when she is constipated. Works like a charm!
Sheffie your waiting for AF to TTC right? Have you been preventing?

scratch what i said about period pains, i think it maybe Opain, i had a lot of EWCM yest and today, and if i count from the day i passed the clots, i would be CD16 today which is when i od last cycle. xx

hi ladies, I am testing today. I am not even sure if I ovulated last month..I got a semi dark but not positive test on an opk on cd15 and they just kept getting lighter after that. by cd 20 I got scared and thought that if that was in fact my positive then I would be risking another mc by waiting too long to start the crinone. So I started the crinone. I have a feeling I may have prevented ovulation so not such high hopes, but we shall see

We haven't really been preventing, but based on my temps I def have not ovulated so I wasn't too worried. The doctor told us we'd be fine to try once I got AF. So I'm thinking we'll be *trying* next month. If my cycle is cooperative, I should get my first post-D&C AF in about a week or so... Which would put O around May 1st. I'm secretly hoping for this and then a miraculous BFP around Mother's Day (May12). That would be so awesome!

I am 13 days out and still getting bfp. I HATE that it take so long for the levels to drop.

It is really good to hear other's experiences though. Very reassuring that others have to go through this wait too...even thou it sucks.

My midwife called this afternoon to check up on me and tell me that if I want to, I can try progesterone to hopefully lengthen my lp, improve the quality of my eggs, and maintain a future pregnancy. I don't know much about taking it, but after three consecutive mc's I am willing to try pretty much anything.

So sorry hon. I hated seeing those bfps when I knew they weren't "real" anymore! I chose not to wait for mine to be zeroed out to ttc. I took a test once a week to look for my negative. They say it can take up to 3 weeks to go negative.

 

[AwesomeSauce]

I know they can stay bfp for weeks. I was hoping though. After my second tri loss the hormones took a month to leave. I was hoping that a 6w3d loss would cooperate faster. I am not planning to wait unit Af comes. I think I will test for hcg as well as test with opk in the morning.

 

[tlk71411]

Well then you and I are in literally the same boat! I lost mine at 6+2. Hopefully we both get our rainbow babies!

 

[Neverending]

I'm on cd 11 technically cd 12 now. Think I ovulated today but the weird thing is I'm super crampy. But we have been dtd everyother day since I stopped AF usually we dtd everyday but partner tore acl the cramps are what I feel when I ovulate but usually I only feel it once for a minute or so been happening a lot with af cramps to so kinda concerned I'm trying to soon. I've been really nervous. He goes out of town for the 20th and 21st so hopefully hopefully I can show him a when he gets home

 

[Miniegg27]

Fingers crossed neverending!!

 

[AwesomeSauce]

I hope so never ending.

This morning I temped and took a couple of tests. I think I got a bfn. There was the faintest of lines that honestly could just be Evap. At any rate I am close to bfn. My temps are low and the opk was neg. I hope I will o in the next week or so. Time to get busy bd!.

Wouldnt that be an awesome surprise! The Drs recommend every other day for dtd so I think you are good there! Maybe you released more then one egg? TWINS! Just keep dtd till he leaves cramps could also be an already prego thing

I hope so never ending.

I had a really faint line on the 5th, then complete neg on the 7th. sounds like yours are definitely fading My hubby was only here for a week so we just dtd almost every day while he was here lol Have you been dtd already or were you waiting for the negative?

 

[AwesomeSauce]

Never mind on the bfn. It isn't an Evap. It is really faint, but definitely still there.

We haven't been dtd...mostly because of timing. we need to though. It has been over two weeks, and I miss it lol.

 

[OhTheJoy]

Can i join? i had my BFP last wednesday but everyday after that was negative and blood test on monday confirmed this, so i had a chemical pregnancy just waiting for af to arrive now.
