A group for TTC#1 and had more than one loss?

[hopestruck]

Thanks so much BeachChica! Are you guys actively TTC at the moment? I'm on CD 14 today (usually O around CD 16-18), so perhaps we will be testing around the same time!

Hopestruck - yes I am back to TTC. My doctor wanted me to take a break after my last MC in January. This is my 3rd cycle back to TTC. It looks like we will be testing about the same time! How long are your cycles?

Yay! Cycle buddies Mine seem to vary, but usually range from 29-32 days in normal conditions (cycles immediately following miscarriage are always 35 days). I haven't gotten an +OPK yet, but things are seeming pretty fertile down there (slippery CM and high cervix) so I'm thinking it's going to be a shorter cycle this month! My guess is that I will O on the CD 15 or 16, which will make it a 28 or 29 day cycle. I'll probably test on July 23 or 24 (will want to find out before my next doc appointment on the 25th). How about you?

Hi everyone, quick update, I went to work yesterday and had to leave at 1:00p.m. because I went to the restroom and found a spot of blood mixed with mucus. I immediately told my director & came home to rest. Called my doctor and they said I have to rest, that it's my body's way of telling me to take it easy so I took today off and am bed ridden except for restroom trips. I went and purchased a Sonoline fetal Doppler and was able to hear beanies heartbeat! Mind is at ease now it's nice to have the Doppler at home for reassurance.

Lexi, I asked the nurse yesterday when I should stop the Progesterone and she said since the doctor didn't say anything at last weeks appointment, to continue them until my next appointment? I don't know aren't you supposed to stop at 12 weeks since the placenta takes over? Sigh, don't know if I should cut down to 1 100mg pill a day around Saturday? Thoughts? And why are you waking every 2 hours is it insomnia or just pee trips to restroom? Sorry you are having trouble sleeping

Wooks, the beta results are good! Mine was 94 at 13dpo and 272 at 15dpo. And don't worry you will make it to 40 weeks we share the appointment date! My next ultrasound is July 30th too. Your symptoms sound great as well, I still have no constipation, am kind of thankful for that

Meme, this is a lucky thread lots of luck to you, hopefully you get your sticky BFP really soon!

Sooper, even if you don't have a date yet, at least it's moving along. Hoping you get your appointment before the end of the month. It sucks you have to wait!

Hope, good luck catching the egg this month!

Lady, I hope you are close to meeting the little lady.

:wave: hi to anyone I may have missed.

Oh Emme, I'm so sorry about your event! Glad to hear everything's OK though, and you were able to hear babe's heartbeat! Amazing!!! I think it's good advice to just take it easy. If nothing else, it will ease your mind and let you relax a little more.

Just wondering if anybody has used Femara? Just finished my first round this past month. Period started 3 days ago but has been super light. Only using liners. Wondering if anybody else has had this happen. I normally have fairly light to med flow cycles but this one is barely there!

Hope - I seems to be having the same kind of month, no +OPK yet and lots of slippery CM. Based on my temps etc I think I will happen in the next couple days for me as well. I need to get going on the BDing TONIGHT!!!

 

[BeachChica]

Emme - quite a scare you've been having! Definitely take it easy! Does your work know you are pregnant?

Meme - I have not used Femera but I do know that it can thin the lining of your uterus and make for lighter periods. A girl in another thread was having this problem too and had to stop and take something to thicken it again. Did your doc prescribe this? I would definitely mention it in case there is another brand that doesn't cause as much thinning.

I thought Clomid thinned the lining, and Femara doesn't?

 

[hopestruck]

Beach - good luck to you!!! I ended up getting a nearly positive OPK yesterday afternoon, and today my temps were slightly higher so I fear ovulation is immanent...and yet my OH is out of town till 11pm today! Thinking we may miss our chance this month but HOPING we don't! Have fun and let's keep in touch during the 2WW

Emme - quite a scare you've been having! Definitely take it easy! Does your work know you are pregnant?

Yeah, I had to tell my director right away because of my doctor appointments. I was very worried because I'd just got the job, but when I accepted the offer I don't even know I was pregnant fortunately she is very understanding and from what I've seen, they are family oriented. Lots of pregnant women work there.

I couldn't go to work today either, I felt so bad having to call and tell her. I threw up yesterday afternoon around 6, again around 4 a.m., 6 a.m. & at 9:50 a.m. I feel like crap, I don't know if it was something I ate or MS. My stomach feels like its burning up, terrible horrible heartburn feeling x's 4. My throat hurts from throwing up, I can't even swallow Can MS start this late??!
I told my OH to get me some Gatorade and apple juice but my mom said sprite and saltine crackers are better. I need to get better! I need to work, I'm not getting paid for sick time yet!

I suppose it's possible, Emme! Glad to hear you're picking up baby on the doppler!

:wave: hi to anyone I may have missed.

Glad you heard the heartbeat its reassuring isnt it!

Umm re prog maybe as you have had bleeding etc it would be best to stay on it til your next appointment, it certainly wont do any harm.

Im not sure if i wake cos i need the toilet or i wake anyway and then think ill go to the toilet...? but there's certainly a lot of pee trips!

Sorry your not feeling good i hope the sickness is a one off.

 

[Memebug6]

Beach/wookie- thanks for the input!! I called this morning to ask my doctor but of course she was busy so they had me talk to the medical assistant. I explained to her what was going on and she replied 'sometimes birth control can thin your lining'. She obviously didnt know what Femara was so I told her what it was and she just said 'oh it can happen with that too' so im not positive i got a correct answer or not. Starting round 2 tomorrow so I guess we will see. I tried looking it up on the internet but didnt find much

 

[Ladyfog]

Just popping in for a quick update - sorry for the selfish post!

Well, I'm still waiting!!! I've been in early labour on an off for 3 days now - I keep going to be bed with bad cramps/contractions and then they slow down and go by morning. It's so frustrating!

Had a visit to the midwife today and she checked and I'm 2-3cms dilated so we're getting there slowly but surely. She could feel baby's head so she's low down and we're ready to go, I just need to get my contractions to stay and get worse!

Things are on the go again now so I'm hoping my contractions continue to build today and I make it to active labour so I actually get to have this baby!!

Hopefully my next update will be to say I'm finally a mummy!

 

[wookie130]

Oh! OH!!! Ladyfog, good luck to you!!!!!!!! Sounds like in the next day (or two) you'll finally have your little girl!

Here's to a smooth labor and delivery! Best of luck, and take care!

 

[Sooperhans]

Hey ladies....Emme I hope today has been better for you? Lexi take it easy and Lady wow so close for you!! Have the contractions been v painful or bearable?
Nicki, Thurl, Beach, Never, Wookie and anyone else, how are you? I hope you get lucky tonight, I'm going to get a dtd in as well. I think I've ov'd or near to it but not had as much ewcm as last month. Hmmmm who knows!? Xx

 

[Sooperhans]

Thinking of you lots Lady xxx

 

[lexi374]

Good luck lady!!!!!

 

[Ladyfog]

Soop, so far they are bearable - like really nasty period pains that build and then go away with bad leg ache. It may sound a bit weird but they remind me of my 2nd (earlier/easier) miscarriage. I'm kind of waiting for them to get to the same level as my first miscarriage, which was sooo painful that I went to another place really. In a strange way I think the pain of my miscarriages has prepared me for labour as I've already felt a similar type of pain. This time though it's going to have a happy ending

 

[Emmediva]

Good luck Lady!!! I hope labor is not bad nor long for you.

Sooper, I'm a little better, I threw up last night again and just couldn't take it so I took Prilosec, it did help but since I wasn't sure if it was ok to take again I called the doctor 1st thing this morning. They told me she was out of the office for the week! WTH?! anyway a nurse called me back and I explained everything. She said not to take anymore Prilosec but that I could take Prevacid so that's what I did. I feel much better, but throat is so sore, I have trouble swallowing

 

[hopestruck]

Best of luck during labor Lady! Sending all the best positive, calming vibes to you during this time. Look forward to hearing about baby!
