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

[lexi374]

Oh beach im so so sorry

They dont know much about it here either, i just did lots of googling. Let me know if you have any questions about treatment for it etc. I know some ladies in US have had the meds without having the tests in the hope something would work, (and it did).

Be kind to yourself x

I was just checking in one more time ( despite saying i wouldnt) and saw your news Beach. I am so so sorry I really thought this was your sticky bean, im sure you did too. Just devastating. I hope looking into nk cells leads somewhere for you.

I had a bit of a breakdown this morning. I'm 5 weeks today and the boob soreness has totally gone. I just don't feel pregnant. Poor DH doesn't really know what to say to me expect give me a hug and tell me the stres isn't isn't good for the baby but it's so damn hard. I feel like it totally comsumes my head and every thought. I feel a bit like I'm losing my marbles.

Beach sorry again and we'll all be here for you through this tough time xxx

 

[NewToAllThis]

Beach - I'm so so so sorry. It's just awful and I understand how you must be feeling right now. We're here for you when you're ready xxx

Nicki - symptoms come and go hun so please try not to worry too much (easier said than done I know)
Enjoy your holiday xxx

 

[wookie130]

Beach, I'm so very sorry for your loss. I hope that testing yields some answers for you.

all the way.

 

[BeachChica]

Thanks ladies for all of your thoughts and support! This is a tough journey and it really helps to go through all of this will others who know what's its like. I am on the way to the hospital now.

Emme- thank you for the articles. I will look over them today. I did some googling last night too I am just trying to find a really good article that summarizes those cells for the doctor to read.

I will check in with you girls later.

Sorry Beach. It sucks. I can't believe how many miscarriages you've been through. Totally unfair. There has to be a reason and I doubt it's just bad luck or bad embryos. Your doc needs to find it and fix it. If you don't mind my asking, how old are you?

 

[monro84]

Oh no Beach I am soooo sorry. There is definately a reason and I know you will find out soon and have the sticky baby that you have always dreamed of. I am praying for you

Nicki--I am sure everything is ok. Will be praying for you also .

 

[Emmediva]

Beach, you're in my thoughts

Nicki, I second NTAT's response, symptoms do come and go. But it does worry you like crazy when that happens so your reaction is understandable. I remember I would push on the sides and sometimes thought they sort of hurt but from me pressing on them. To this date, my boobs have not changed much, I'm a D but still I think they should've gotten a little bigger or sore, or harder? Nothing but some slight nipple soreness, peeling and pigment change but that's it :shrug and I've hardly had any morning sickness or constipation, I can probably count on one hand the times I've had either. So try not to stress too much, I know easier said than done

oh Beach, my heart is aching for you. No one deserves to go through all that you have been through, especially not a wonderful person like you. It is so scary to see that things can start out so perfectly and go so far and then suddenly this happens...I know nothing can make you feel better, but we are all feeling your pain and sending you love and support. I hope you find some answers soon to at least make you more optimistic about next time...

 

[Ladyfog]

Beach, so sorry that it's bad news for you again Fingers crossed you can get some testing for high NK cells.

 

[BeachChica]

Thanks girls! Well I had my surgery this morning and everything went as well as can be expected. I have been just resting the rest of the day. This time my RE had one of the other OB doctors that works with him do my D&C. (I did not want to go back to my old OB again for the procedure since my tissue sampke got screwed up last time and did not get tested) This is also a different hospital than I went to for the others. It was really nice is time because this hospital has their own Women's Center with a surgical suite so it was only women in there going through surgical procedures with their private parts etc rather than a big outpatient center with people having all kinds of surgeries. Much better experience and less hectic. I also told every person I saw about the importance of my tissue sample so hopefully everything will work out with that.

Notoopt- I just turned 39 this year so def one concern I have is whether my eggs are just old.

 

[Emmediva]

I'm with you in spirit holding your hand so sorry you had to go through this. I hope they don't mess up with the tissue testing and can give you an answer. Regarding your eggs, I read CoQ10 helps the egg quality, so start taking some off that if you can. I took 100mg. I hope the doctors can find the issue and fix it. I pray you don't wait long to get your rainbow baby

 

[BeachChica]

Thanks Emme- actually I started taking 200mg of CoQ10 daily earlier this year in hopes that it would improve egg quality this pregnancy. I was probably on it about 5 months before i got pregnant. It will definitely be interesting to see what my tissue sample shows.

 

[ayclobes]

Beach - oh my, im so sorry. I had a mmc in november, i can relate. Have you thought about trying injectibles or anything? I did injectibles the month i got pregnant, and they say the injectibles help with egg quality..

 

[NewToAllThis]

Help!
Can anyone tell me how far into a natural miscarriage (I was 5 weeks) that you start to pass the important stuff? I've been bleeding 24 hours and its just fresh red blood, no clots or anything.

Sorry to have to ask but I'm terrified I'm not going to pass it all naturally. Had two MMC's so not been through a natural one before. Tried to the second time but didn't pass it so had to have an ERPC. I categorically do not want another one of those as caused me loads of issues last time.

Thanks girls xxx

 

[thurl30]

Hi everyone, just logged on quickly for the first time in a while and saw your news Beach, I am so so sorry to hear this I really am, I know there isn't much I can say but I'm sending you so many xx

 

[Emmediva]

NTAT, with my mc's I passed the tissue the same day. I actually dug some of it out the loo and took pictures for Dr's to see just in case. Are you checkin the toilet after you pee? With my first one I was 6+4 so I felt (ugh) the tissue passing. With my next one it was a chemical I was close to 4+5 weeks and didn't feel any tissue except for looking in the toilet. I've always had blood clots with AF though ever since I can remember so that was normal for me.

 

[BeachChica]

Thanks ayclobes- what kind of injectibles were you taking? I don't seem to have trouble getting pregnant, it's staying pregnant

NTAT- i am so sorry. I have usually spotted for couple days and then heavy bleeding with clots. Do you have any cramping? Maybe the MC has not fully started yet? Mine were very painful, worst cramps I've ever had, like my insides were being ripped out. One of mine even after going through all that I still had not passed all of the tissue and still needed a D&C so you may want to follow up with your doc just to be sure. Also ask them if they want you to collect the tissue for testing. On my January MC I started bleeing at home at night so when I called the of he asked me to collect all of the tissue in a bag of alcohol. I just collected everything that came out just to make sure.

 

[notoptimistic]

Beach - have you seen an RE to run tests?

 

[BeachChica]

Beach - have you seen an RE to run tests?

Oh yeah, I had the full work-up after MC #3 and have been seeing an RE exclusively for my last 2 pregnancies. MC #3 was tested and was a Trisomy 12 and all of my RPL testing has come back normal with the exception of a heterozygous mutation on the MTHFR gene which is causing a high homocysteine level. I was taking extra Folic Acid but recently changed to Follgard 2.2 for this. My 4th pregnancy we also found that I had a low pregnant progesterone level so this time I started taking progersterone 5 DPO. I have been also taking prenatals, DHA, baby aspirin and 200 mg CoQ10. I really thought I had it all covered. I am really starting to wonder though if I am having some sort of clotting problem still. I don't know it will be interesting to see if the tissue comes back on this one as another chromosome problem or normal.
