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

[kmp]

Hello everyone, not sure if anyone remembers me, but I was on this thread what seems like ages ago and have been stalking again now for awhile. Now that I will finally be ttc again when I ovulate next week I felt I had to post. Just a quick recap, I had an early mc in Aug '11 and an ectopic in Nov '11, had 2 hsg's and 2 surgeries to repair a uterine septum in march and may. Now I am finally able to try again!! I am soooo excited! I got preggo very quickly both times I tried so am hoping the third time will be the charm! I have been getting super excited seeing ladies I remember from before getting their BFPs and others who are in their 2nd trimester. I should O the 25th and knowing myself will begin testing on like Aug 3!

I started taking soy and I will say I have never had problems with O, but soy isos definitely strengthen it!! You start to get O symptoms early but in my experience I havent o'd early. I have not had any negative side effects either.

Congrats Bumblebee that's gr8 news!!
Goodluck KMP
Thanks everyone for the support. I had my ultrasound today. It went really well!! they are measuring 10wks5days which is correct with my dates. Twin 1's heart beat is 169bpm& 4.29cm, twin2's heart beat is 150bpm& measuring 4.20cm which he said sounded fine. We are so thrilled. They were moving around so much it was amazing to see! I've never gotten this far or seen a baby's heart beat before. I'm just so happy & relieved.

Lady's little lady must be here by now, can't wait to hear

Never, thanks for the luck , I have 2 more days of Soya to take, and then I just have to wait to see whether it makes me ovulate. I am well and truly stocked up with test sticks, I am definately turning in to a poas-aholic I am sticking with the temping, it's not making any sense to me yet but I'm only on CD6 and my first cycle of temping, I just have everything crossed that I am going to ovulate and that it's as close to CD14 as possible, how are you doing? The weeks must be flying by for you now

Bumble congratulations on your bfp

KMP, welcome back to the thread, fingers crossed it happens quickly for you this time

Misswish so pleased to hear everything is ok

Soop, Beach, Lexi, Wookie, Emme and Nicki

Hi ladies sorry i have been mia, had a stinking cold last week and nothing much else to report.

Thurl ive taken soy isos a few times, i got them from tescos, First time i took them i did 80mg cd 3-7 and had hot flushes at night while i took them, also my temp chart was higher than normal pre ov, i didnt get hot flushes any other time i took them though, that first time gave me a bfp! So good luck! Stick with temping, the more you do it the more sense it should make!

This time i got bfp i took them cd 4-8 and ov cd17, i think i did 120mg.

It is apparently half the strength of clomid. or should i say you need twice as much. Good luck.

Misswish great news on the scan so happy for you!

Lady my lovely we are waiting to hear all about it.

Nsn put your feet up now your finished work!

Soop how are you doing hun, not too much longer til your appointment.

Congrats bumble fx for you this time.

Emme happy 2nd tri hun!

Wookie how are you feeling?

Nicki i think you mentioned grapefruit juice i tried it 1 month and def had more ewcm, but also my latest ever ov that month cd22, so didnt try again.

Beach any s&s yet this month?

Welcome to joanne and pip sorry you find yourselves here but hope we can offer help and support.

Patiently how are you hun, you gonna join us again??

Madeline are you feeling any better?

Ayclobes i hope you are progressing nicely.

Hope i didnt miss anyone....

Afm 17 weeks..... can hardly believe we have made it this far..... still doesnt feel real.

Had midwife tues, she listened to the heartbeat, but of course i have been checking at home anyway, havent been as obsessed as dh thought i would be, only check 2 or 3 times a week.

I have a consultant appointment on 31st, not sure if they are doing a scan then or not, if not next scan is 14th aug. I dont think i can stay team yellow....

 

[lexi374]

Sorry kmp i missed you good luck.

Madeline are you sure that is your only option is there nothing else they can do for you?

Lexi...woop woop for 17 weeks and upcoming scan

Thurl..I've heard temping is really useful and shows patterns the more info you input..good luck

KMP...good to see you back and hoping that your BFP is hiding around the corner

Madeleine...I just have to say that first off...we are not allowed to discuss that option on the boards...could you please remove your post or you risk closing this thread down. Secondly...there are many different medications you can have to help with the HG...I've followed several ladies journeys and they have had meds, hospital visits with dehydration and needing drips and medical care and have gone on to have their babies. Also..you have it with this pregnancy..you'll have more chance that you'll have it with subsequent pregnancies too. I know it's a personal decision but I feel that everyone on here has supported you loads, given advice etc and they have gone through two or more losses and would snap your arm off to be in a position of being pregnant regardless of how ill they get. I'm just giving my opinion...on another thread I use which is specifically for people that have recurrent pregnancy loss and are now pregnant...there are two ladies who are pregnant and have been knocked off their feet due to HG but they wouldn't even consider any other option. Good luck.

AFM..just spent the night in hospital being minitower for high BP and had a scan yesterday that shows I have excess fluid around baby. Back to clinic on Monday for BP check up as now on meds and will need another scan to check fluid levels and baby to ensure their kidneys are functioning ok and no blockages in their oesophagus. I'm sure all will be fine...I'll take whatever..we haven't gotten this far without coming home with our baby

XxX

 

[lexi374]

Madeline i know you are feeling low/crap but you have too see the bigger picture and the light at the end of the tunnel....... I had severe constipation also, my bum bled so many times i dreaded having a poo, and i also had the headaches and fatigue til.... well still having it really.

Im not sure that it would be any better with another pregnancy....

As nsn as said there have been many other ladies with severe hg but they have got through it, you can too. x

 

[thurl30]

everyone

Madeline sorry to hear you're still not feeling well, keep going, and as Lexi said, you can get through it

Never so sorry to hear what's happened, is your scan going to be tomorrow? I'm sure it will all be fine, as you said you have come this far, I have everything crossed for you

Lexi happy 17 weeks, does your dh want to stay team yellow? That choice must be so difficult to make, I reckon just go with your instincts when you're having your scan Thanks for the Soya advice, I am on CD7 today and it's my last day of taking them, did your bfp this time around with taking Soya?

Afm, well I'm going to increase my dose of Soya today to 160mg, I have been taking 120mg for the last 2 days. I have also been taking Evening Primrose Oil for the last week, I have noticed that last few days I have been even more hot headed than usual (my dh would back this statement up ), has anyone else experienced this when taking EPO?
My temperature took a nose dive this morning which I didn't expect to see, I have tried to add my chart to my signature, hoping it worked, would someone mind having a look to see if my chart looks a bit strange?

The weather is lovely this morning, I have a wedding this afternoon, and a birthday bash tonight so hoping it stays nice and sunny. Have a lovely Sunday everyone xx

 

[lexi374]

Hi thurl yep i took soy this time too, i never took more than 120mg, maybe if this is your first time you should stay at a fairly low dose? On the soy thread some ladies went straight in at a high dose 160/200 and it had the opposite effect, maybe see how you get on with this month and then up it next month if you need to?

As for the being a hot head that could be the soy too!

Dont worry too much about 1 single temp, its when you look back at the end of the month that you should see a pattern and hopefully that will help you for the next month. Just keep having regular bd sessions and hopefully you wont miss it. Have a look at some of my charts.

Enjoy your wedding x

 

[thurl30]

Hi Lexi, that's really good info about the dosage of Soy thanks, I am going to stay at 120mg then and see what happens. I think I so desperately want to know what it feels like to be certain I have ovulated that I was thinking high dose was the best thing to do, It would be lovely to be able to report back to everyone how many dpo I am for the first time I think also because I got that random almost positive opk on CD25 last cycle that I have always given up testing too early, so I must stick with it this time! Thanks for the info on temps also, I won't take too much notice of it yet and just keep updating my chart for now. Enjoy the rest of the weekend

 

[lexi374]

You too. I'll keep an eye on your chart. x

 

[Sooperhans]

Bumblebee, welcome and congrats! I hope you are doing well x

Lexi sorry to hear you've not been well, really excited to hear what you decide re team yellow....my friend had agreed with her dh to find out, then when they were about to tell them she shouted "NO!" so that was that, lol.

Emme, the restaurant experience sounds awful, hope you feel better too.

Oh Never, you poor love sounds like a stressful and worrying time, I hope they can get you sorted v soon, I hope dh spoils you and looks after you and pls let us know how you get on xxx

Lady, thinking of you and hope it is blissful spending time with your girl x

Thurl I'm sorry I don't know about soy, I can't take it due to my hypothyroidism. I hope it serves you well and you get a clear ov! Xx

Kmp hi to you and I hope your trying pays off v quickly for you xx

Beach how are ya? X

Wookie hi and how are you getting on?

Afm I'm a bit anxious about the scan but feeling positive. I'll be testing shortly and hoping that the unlikely occurs and they see a little one in there! Who knows...a couple of s&s but nothing I haven't had before on a bfn month!

Xxx

 

[Sooperhans]

Oh and misswish great news about your scan! Hi to everyone else xxx

 

[Bumblebee2408]

Hi Sooperhans!,

Doing well so far just turned 5 weeks today though so i'm starting to worry as i've lost the last 2 between now and 6 weeks but trying to look on the bright side and hoping this one will stick and go well xxxx

 

[wookie130]

Bumblebee, that's all you can do...I'm seriously trying to do the same here!

Sooper- I'm okay...feeling icky off and on, and managing the first-tri anxiety and symptoms, and all of that.

Ultrasound is one week from tomorrow! Keep your fingers crossed for me. If this one is okay, it'll be the first ultrasound I've ever had where there's actually a heartbeat...I pray that's what happens, anyway. Pray for me!
