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

[thurl30]

Hi lolala

Sorry to hear about your losses, but it's good you're feeling strong enough to try again, wishing you lots of baby luck

xx

 

[thurl30]

Thanks Lexi, I will feel better when AF arrives I think, I just want it here and gone so I can start my next cycle, CD48 today!! Hope you're ok today xx

 

[lexi374]

Im ok thanks, ah thats crap you are waiting so long, hope af arrives soon for you. x

 

[Emmediva]

That would be so exciting if Patiently has predicted right again for you Lexi! I hope all the diy helps the 2ww fly for you hun

Ok I'm going to get a frer double pack if my temp is up tomorrow!! Fx'd...xxx

Fingers tightly crossed for you Sooperhans. That temp dip at 11dpo may be an implantation dip!! Sending you lots of positive thoughts!!

Thanks Kat. CD5 now, so getting over all my anger & saddling up for another month of TTC. Starting baby aspirin this month...thinking that might help my lining be better for implant. I have always had heavy AF with clots, so maybe the aspirin is what I need. Haven't tried progesterone before, although have been looking into it. By the looks of my chart, I think my luteal phase is ok....so not sure if I would need the progesterone or not. I think I'll do the aspirin and if I get a BFP I'll start with progesterone supps. Hubby is on board for lots of BD'ing this month, lol. I guess if we do it every day or so then I won't have to worry so much about O day. Have you been to your doc since you got your BFP? Claiming nothing but a healthy and happy FULL TERM for you!

JennyNBaby, I'm sorry for your loss, I hope you get your BFP soon

AFM,
I am happy to report, after almost having a nervous break down this morning waiting for my results, that my HCG has risen from 47 last Wed to 597 yesterday morning. This is a doubling time of 32.72 hours. Normal under 1200 is 31-72, so I am doubling quick!!! This is my highest recorded HCG, since it was never monitored before except for when I was actually MCing.

This morning I was practically in tears since I don't "feel as pregant" as I would like. I know it is crazy early, but the 1st time my boobs were killing me already. Maybe my boobs already stretched out from the last 2 pregnancies and won't hurt as much this early. Anyways, I feel so much relief. I know it is no guarantee, but it is something. I believe this will be my last HCG test unless I beg my Dr again on Monday. I might just start begging for a super early scan.

KatM, Congratulations on your BFP!! those HCG numbers sound great!!! We can all understand the stress from waiting on those results. They say every pregnancy is different and that sometimes it takes a while for the symptoms to kick in. I have a friend on here that started having symptoms after 6weeks, she felt nothing before and now she is at 21weeks! Sending you lots of positive thoughts!!

Hi lolala, sorry to hear about your losses. It can be hard to get back on the ttc wagon after a break can't it (I've had quite a few months off and have enjoying NOT having to think about ovulation Andorra the 2ww) but will soon back on it! Fx for you and i will follow your progress!

Thurl it really is totally normal to feel sad / hurt / angry when others tell you their good news. After my 2nd mc, 3 friends told me they were pregnant within a week! The third one was by email and I burst into tears at my desk and was sent home from work. I couldn't bear to see them all at the same time for a while but it did get better.

Kat, my health kick involves taking shed loads of vitamins (we had hair tests done which showed up lots of difficiencies and DH also had high lead levels which we are trying to flush out of his system) as well as the usual healthy eating, loads of fruit n veg, protein with every meal to stop blood sugar fluctuations (apparently blood sugar surges are bad for hormones and vitamins - i had no idea) and the usual no caffeine and hardly any booze. BORING! But going to give it a whirl.

[KatM]

Emmediva,
Thanks hon for the reassurances. Where are you at on your quest for #1?

Nicki,
That sounds like a good health plan. I never had a hair test done. Interesting. How come DH has so much lead in his blood? Don't forget the exercise that goes along with your heal regime. I hope it works!

 

[lolala]

Hi everyone, hope everyone is ok today? I am feeling abit low, one of my friends just announced she is pregnant and due in September, I am genuinely really happy for her, but I do feel like I have a bit of a knot in my stomach hearing about it, I hope I don't sound really out of order saying that. I will be fine in a day or so, but I just needed to tell someone how I feel, I think it bothered me so much because she is such a close friend, I do feel alot better already just posting about it

xx

I completely understand. My sister announced her pregnancy 2 weeks after my miscarriage and we would have been due the same month. My nephew is 9 months old now and it still hurts everytime I see him or she sends a picture etc.

Our turn will come xx

 

[lexi374]

Soop did you test yet??????

 

[Loopyla]

Hi everyone! hope you're all well! sorry not posted for a while!
Kat thats great about your levels, dont worry bout your lack of symptoms, i know loads of people who had nothing until about 3 months and were all fine!
I have been talking things over with my husband and have agreed to give it one more month naturally then if it doesnt work will try the chlomid, i see where hes coming from really he just thinks its gonna happen and doesnt want to put pressure on us so this month we r gonna keep ourselves busy so we dont think about it constantly (easier said than done) so we shall see how it goes!!!!
xxxx

 

[Sooperhans]

Hi everyone and to the newcomers.

Lexi I got scared to test today! I have seen 4 BFNs and I dreaded seeing another. And dh said to wait one more day...so am testing tomorrow.

I have read that progesterone can keep your temps higher after ov...I wish I hadn't read that!! I will let you know what tomorrow's result says.

Kat that's fab about your hcg, really really happy for you xxx

 

[Neversaynever]

Soop...yes progesterone keeps temps up but you had a dip so fingers are still crossed

Welcome to the new ladies...so sorry you find yourself here

The news of new pregnancies will always sting you..even when you are pregnant too to be honest I honestly believe by being around like minded people where you can be totally honest, open and those people have a true understanding..it makes it that bit more bearable

Patiently my lovey...regarding counselling. My personal opinion is that unless it's a specialist counsellor you are wasting your time. I called the miscarriage association and got a number for a local support group and that was perfect. The woman that ran it runs the early pregnancy loss unit at my maternity hospital so she knew her shit.

Kat..symptoms will be so sporadic at this point and to be honest...they don't mean anything so stick to the betas until scan time and try not to worry

Lexi... hun and top marks for rudies in all the right places

Hope everyone else is hanging in there

AFM...had 20 week scan yesterday and all looks like it should. Such a relief the worry never goes girls trust me

to you all

XxX

 

[lexi374]

Soop!!!! You are keeping me hanging on here!!!

I read that too about the prog but my temps started falling anyway on it last month so not sure how much of an effect it has. Fair play for hanging on but ..... for making us wait! x

Loopyla have you tried soy isoflavones instead, you take them similar to clomid and they def give me an ov that i can feel, got bfp 1st time last summer using them.

Maybe a good idea for you too Thurl as your cycles are long. There is a huge thread on here somewhere about them. They dont work for everyone though so look into it, and dont take if you have thyroid problems.

Afm 4dpo nothing to report, kitchen guys are here and house is a shit hole! x

 

[lexi374]

Yay nsn theres hope for us all yet!! x

 

[lexi374]

Now ff has put cross hairs in it says if i conceived this cycle my due date would be 29th dec, this is my last chance for a 2012 baby!!

 

[Sooperhans]

Thank you NSN, I'm still hopeful...I get excited and terrified all at once! So pleased your 20w scan showed all is fine...did you find out the sex? Or opted for a lovely surprise? I agree, I think the pain of new pregnancies will always stay, one really stupid colleague outed another colleague who said quietly his wife was pregnant, she was shouting it to everyone and I swear to god I could've punched her! Then I got upset, bleh.

Lexi, I know! Sorry!! Argh I can't wait but I'm also scared. If it's negative I'll get upset, I know I will! I will however take the plunge tomorrow....xxx

 

[Sooperhans]

Lexi if I have conceived I'll be 14 Dec...hoping for 2012 babies all around! Xxx

 

[BeachChica]

Welcome to all the new girls! Sorry your are finding yourself here but its a great place and pretty much everything goes as far as topics to discuss which is nice!!!

Soop - I am on the edge of my seat as your chart is looking good. My doc says that 16 days of high temps is the key number.

NSN - So happy about your scan. It really does give us hope!

AFM - this is my 3rd full cycle after my MC and based on my temps is seems my body is really starting to level out. I really do wonder if you need that break to get things back on track. I definitely feel ready to start trying next month.

I asked my doc about the oral progesterone and he said that there is definitely less side effects taking the suppositories so I am currently trying to see if I can get them changed. My insurance paid for the oral ones but last year they did not want to cover the suppositories so not sure why they would look at them differently. I am really hoping that they will cover them this time.

 

[wookie130]

NSN, I was wondering if you found out the gender also!

Boy, do I know about the pain and often resentment associated with other pregnant people...

I have just begun seeing a counselor, to help me cope with the OODLES of pregnant people in my life at this time. DH and I have also joined a loss support group, and will be attending our first session in May.

CD 2 here, and busted out and set the trusty CBFM this morning. Took my temp on time too! Getting back into the swing of things. Tomorrow, I pop my first Clomid pillfor this cycle. I pray those magic baby pills work as well as the last time.

 

[KatM]

Loopyla,
Thanks for the kind words and reassurance. Good luck on this natural round. Make sure to BD a lot! Definitely less pressure is better, yet so much easier said than done. We NTNP last cycle and it was a relief not to use OPK.

Soop,
Thanks hon for the congrats about my levels.
I understand where you ar coming from about not wanting to test. A girl from my PG after RPL site kept getting negatives, knew she was out, quit all her meds and days later a BFP! I hope this is you!!!

Never,
I am so excited for you. I love the pic you posted on PRPL site. You are over halfway!!! Did you know something was different this time around? Did you feel confidant right away or were you very anxious?

Lexi,
FXed for your 2012 baby. This is my last chance as well.

 

[Emmediva]

Thanks Kat, I am on 8dpo, and trying not to symptom spot, doesn't work too much though I am hoping to get a BFP this cycle as it's also my last chance for a 2012 baby... I just got back from the doc's and they are doing testing for all sorts of stuff, they took 9 vials of blood!! I was like whoa! Leave me some I should get results in 2 weeks, I am hoping all is okay or at least can be fixed...
