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

[Emmediva]

Thanks Hopestruck, yeah getting that reassurance from the doctor set my mind at ease. I just hope I don't spot or have any bleeding at all just seeing red makes my spirit crumble... I took the progesterone once ovulation had been confirmed at 3dpo (I temped daily to ensure OV) and continued it until I tested or AF showed. If BFN I waited 2 days tested again and if BFN again stopped dosage. I am still on it now, taking 200mg vaginally, the doc said oral, but it's best absorbed vaginally since it does not have to get digested.

Hi everyone,
Sorry Emme that you have to go through that scare would be awful. Glad that you're numbers we're good, the baby is measuring right & has a heartbeat. Taking it easy & resting sounds a very good idea. When does your doc say to stop the progesterone?
Lady wow I thought the little lady would have made her appearance. I hope it all goes well & can't wait to hear the good news.
Nicki I hope you catch that egg
Hopestruck my doctor just said to start progesterone as soon as I got bfp since the miscarriages I had were around 8-9&bit weeks.
Lexi hope your energy levels pick up soon. I've been taking Floradix liquid iron supplement which I think has been helping me.
Hi to bumblebee & sorry for your losses.

 

[Emmediva]

Misswish, the doctor hasn't told me to stop them. I am going to call later today to tell them about the light bleeding and to ask because I'll be 12 weeks Thursday (God willing) and from what I've heard that's when the placenta takes over.

 

[lexi374]

Emme glad all is ok, i was told to stop the prog at 12 weeks but was a little nervous so i weaned off, cut down to 1 a day for a week then 1 every other day so was off it by 14 weeks.

Hopestruck all my tests were normal too, except i paid to have a uterine biopsy and was found to have high nk cells, so for this pregnancy was on steroids and progesterone til 12 weeks. Lots of people have success with the prog and aspirin though so fx for you.

Welcome bumblebee sorry you find yourself here.

 

[hopestruck]

Good morning ladies!

Emme - thanks for the info on the progesterone! I have no idea what he is going to prescribe but I do like the idea of vaginal rather than oral.

Misswish- thanks for your info! So I guess our doctors are on the same wavelength I'm glad to know his advice isn't totally bunk!

Lexi - big congrats to you on making it past the dreaded first tri! Its been so long since I have been on here and I am sooo happy to see you are doing well Interesting bit on the uterine biopsy...might be something fo us to consider. Was it painful at all?

 

[lexi374]

It was uncomfortable but not unbearable.

 

[wookie130]

First beta was 114 (12dpo)
Second beta was 261 (14 dpo...today!)

So...it more than doubled! Yay!!! First ultrasound scheduled for Monday, July 30th, and I'll be 7w1d. I hope I make it that far!

 

[Memebug6]

Hey girls! So happy for all these BFP! I was on here a few months ago after my 3rd miscarriage. Took me a few months for my body to get back on track. Gives me hope! Just finished my first round of Femara with no luck. CD2 now. Hoping this is our month for those of you ttc. Im sooooo ready for a BFP that sticks!

 

[Sooperhans]

Wookie that's great news, so flipping pleased for you!!!! How are you feeling?

Oh no Emme, I'm sorry the spotting/blood has flared up again...I hope everything is fine for you

And Lexi, I hope you start getting more energy, it's hard in this weather when it's muggy. This bloody "summer" is a let down! How are you apart from that?

 

[Sooperhans]

Hey Meme...I hope you get your bfp soon, come on July!! Xx

 

[wookie130]

Well, I'm basically EXHAUSTED, and have terrible insomnia. It is 3:08 a.m. right now my time. LOL!!! My boobs are sore off and on, my gums bleed when I brush my teeth, I've had a lot of "trapped wind" and constipation (already...sheesh!!!), and I'm hungry all of the time. Last night I HAD to have Chinese food...it was a MUST!!!

 

[Sooperhans]

Bless you Wookie, at least there are lots of symptoms to go on, albeit unpleasant ones!

Quick update - I called and chased the scan, I should get my letter this week, the scan itself won't be until the end of July, or thereabouts. Just waiting again isn't it...Pah. Yes Lexi, we've been told to try still, so we have been and trying to stat relaxed....x

 

[BeachChica]

Hi girls - sorry I have been MIA, Its been a crazy week. Just trying to get caught back up...


Wookie - A BFP and your laps look great!! That's fabulous news!!! I have everything crossed for you that this IS your sticky bean!!! When did you start your progesterone?

Emme - So happy that your scan came back great. Definitely take it easy!!!

Soop - I am so mad that your docs are making you wait this long!! Its ridiculous!

Lexi - so sorry you are feeling so tired. Is it all day or just in the evening?

Lady - any big news yet!!!?? I am dying to hear! Have you tried some spicy food?

NSN - How are you doing?

Welcome Bumblebee! So sorry about your losses

Madeline - can't wait for your July 26th scan!!!

Nicki - Hope you caught that eggie!

Hopestruck - welcome back. Sorry your testing did not provide any answers but its good that you can still go on to have another normal pregnancy. I was put on the baby aspirin (all the time), extra folic acid and progesterone (starting 3 DPO) regiment too when I got no answers on my RMC testing so let's hope it works for both of us!

AFM - I had some EWCM yesterday and the day before which seems early for me. I should have started BDing but DH and I have been so exhausted from the weekend that we didn't . I did an OPK last night and it was negative, I do another couple today and regardless I really should get on with it tonight.

[lexi374]

Beach its all the time, i get off to sleep no probs but then wake every 2 hrs in the night, im never getting into a deep sleep, its just dream after dream, i feel shattered every morning!

Good luck with bding!

 

[wookie130]

Beach, I found out I was pregnant on July 6th (11 dpo), and called my OB for the progesterone suppositories right away that same day, and began taking them that night before bedtime.

 

[ayclobes]

Thanks ladies! dh's great nephew whom we're adopting is 5mo old! Ahh, we'll be parents to 2 under 2 by the time this LO is born. Its exciting, but scary!

 

[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!

Ayclobles, that's wild! How kind of you to adopt your DH's nephew. Sounds like it's going to be an exciting and transformative time for you!

 

[wookie130]

Ayclobes, as wonderful as it sounds to be adopting your little nephew, you'll have your hands FULL by the time your bio baby arrives!!! LOL! Bless you for giving the little guy a loving family, though!

 

[BeachChica]

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?
