Anyone else now trying again STRAIGHT after a mc? NTNP?

[Mrs Miggins]

Faye! I'd given you up for lost! So sorry AF still hasn't shown. Hope you get sorted soon. How's the house?
I have just spent ages writing a jounal thingy but can't fugure out how to paste the damned thing into my signature. It's probably a yawning read anyway!

 

[dodgercpkl]

Dodger what are your numbes at now did you get the results yet?

I only just got them. They've dropped down to 67 (yay!), my bleeding has come back again bringing with it AF like cramps in my lower abdomen/upper legs (yay ), and the OB's assistant seemed utterly confused by my telling her that I'd had fertile CM yesterday. lol I love confusing them. She even straight out said that I wasn't a textbook case. Go me and my weird body.

AFM... Still no AF... Donations in 3 days. Hoping I have a chance whether I get AF or not... I have been reading about studies of women being fertile on CD1 and CD4 so I think that I am going to try to be one of them. I also have been wondering, before the MC my cycles were "long" but what I called irregularly regular.(read in journal) I had AF every other month since getting af but had confirmed ov every month.... hmmm, I'm grabbing at all types of straws.

I hope hope hope that everything works out for you!

Thanks Clobo! I think it was Louby who wrote about the midwife though! We don't really have midwives in Canada. We just have obstetricians. I do have my first prenatal appointment today though and I have a scan in 7 days!

Yay for your first scan being so close!! I hope the appointment today goes well, let us know!

So I went to the doc this afternoon. She thinks I've got a kidney infection. She did a pregnancy test, since she was testing my urine anyway but it was negative. She's given me an antibiotic that's suitable for early pregnancy just in case. I also asked her advice about thrush treatments because I usually get one with antibiotics. The topical ones are fine but the oral capsule isn't, in case anyone wants to know.

Maybe this infection is why my ovualation is MIA but a few people now have told me that their CBFM missed their peak so that's given me a little hope. Just need to try and pin point when the mostly likely date was.

Awww... I'm sorry that you have a kidney infection. I hope it gets cleared up soon!

 

[Lozdi]

FOOF!!!!! I'm so tired I'm beyond silly and foof made me spit milkshake all over the room.

 

[sarah_anne]

I'm back from the doctor's ladies. Blood work from last week came back clear. I had my pap test done and they took more blood because apparently they didn't take a tube to check my HCG levels last week. I have my ultrasound next week for dating. Given that I miscarried immediately before I got pregnant again, my doctor seems to think that I'm only at 4 or 5 weeks instead of 6, but I'm positive that I ovulated on CD16, so I bet my ultrasound confirms that I'm around where I think I am. I hope everything is alright in there! Ticker says it's the size of a sweet pea today!

 

[mohini12]

Morning ladies.

Well my spotting yesterday turned in light bleeding today. I think being ill has hidden my normal AF signs. I'm not too fussed that I'm out and am quite chuffed that I had a 28 day cycle

I'm still feeling crap and want to take today off work but I forgot to ask the doctor for a fit note. I can't decide whether to just go to work feeling crap or have the hassle of phoning the surgery trying to get the note, which they never seem keen to give out before the 5 days that are normally required.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Mohini, sorry you missed out this month too. It is so frustrating isn't it when you feel sure you have everything covered. I'm sorry I can't offer you any advice though regarding that result as it is not something I know anything about but I hope one of the other girls can help.
Ickle, yay for having a 28 day cycle! You are back on track with me now! I really think you should take today off and rest. You need to give your body the best possible chance and you can only do that if you are well. Besides have you heard that wind?
I'm at work today (in my white linen trousers of course) and AF is heavy and painful today and my stomach is a bit upset too. Hopefully I'll feel better by the time I start at 11.30.
Hope everyone else is ok.
Fili you get your second tablet today don't you? I hope the pain is bearable and it all passes as quickly as possible for you. Thinking of you and sending hugs.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Oh and Sarah! Congrats on sweet pea and the good appointment and think how nice it will be at the ultrasound when they tell you your measuring further than they thought!

 

[ickle pand]

It's not too windy here. I've ended up at work though because having to phone in sick and then having to beg the doctor over the phone for a fit note even though I've only been off for 3 days and don't really need one but my work are awkward and demand them and are willing to pay for them if the surgery charges for it, just all seemed like too much hassle. I'm going find easy jobs to do today though

I'm going to dig out my therm tonight ready to start the twinkle temping when AF finishes

Hi

I don't know anything about prolectine but i know a bit about thyroid

I am hypothyroid which means my thyroid is underactive and i take thyroxine whereas your tsh result looks overactive to me. Normal range for tsh is 0.5-5 so you are below the normal range. I don't know how they treat over active thyroid. Fertility specialists advise for your tsh to be between 1-2 so you need to get yours up!

Your anti tpo (thyroid antibodies) is a bit shocking if i am honest with you, I thought mine was bad at 417 when normal is 30! A lady from B&B sent me a link yesterday as she has thyroid antibodies and it was really informative so i will send it on to you. They treat thyroid antibodies with small dose thyroxine but that is what they give people with an underactive thyroid so not sure where you stand on that. The lady that sent the link had recurrent miscarriages and never made it past 6 weeks, was then put on thyroxine for the anti tpo and became successfully pregnant but sadly the baby had a heart defect so she lost it at 17 weeks

My consultant at the hospital also has a patient that had thyroid antibodies and her tsh was fine, they put her on thyroxine and she had made it to 8.5 weeks when i was last their so i get an update on her in feb

Try not to worry to much, your antibodies can be sorted!

 

[pinksmarties]

mohini - sorry AF has got you this month. We alwys get our hopes up and is hard when things dodn't got as we want. Can't help with results don't really know much about them.

ickle - its that horrible caught in the middle situation, phone GP and have the hassle or go to work. I'd try the Dr's no point going into work unwell on top of AF. Yay though for 28 day cycle!!

Fili - hope today goes well (as well as can be) sending huge

Sarah - 1 week till scan! That will fly by!! I would trust your dates more than theirs. Did you tell them you knew when you ov'd. I think they assume most people are a bit ignorant about stuff like that, I suppose I was before the mc.

Mrsmig - Hope you are okay and AF isn't to hard on you. Nothing worse than having to try to hide AF wearing white pants. How was one born every minute? Didn't get to watch as OH watching football but I can watch tonight as I recorded it.

Loz - how are youi today. The tiredness although a bummer is a good sign. hope you didn't have many bad dreams last night.

Hi to Chele, emum, hope, clobo and anyone else I might have missed.

afm - I had one of the crappiest sleeps ever. Just couldn't fall asleep, nothing on my mind that I can think of, just couldn't drop off. When I did fall asleep I had night sweats again. This seem to be norm for second half of my cycle. I am not sure if thats a good thing or not - anyone?

 

[loubyloumum]

Morning Ladies.

Ickle, I'm sorry the witch got you hun, but yey for 28 day cycle Get that thermometer at the ready
MrsMig, hoping your feeling a little better today lovely.
Fili, Is it today you get your second tablet? I hope everything is over quick enough for you hun...I'm thinking of you
Faye..... :wave: I was wondering where you had got too. So sorry AF hasn't arrived for you yet, fingers the doc will get the motions running for you. Are you all settled in to your new lovely home now?
Loz, how you feeling?
Sarah, yey for your scan! I cant wait to hear all about it xx
Mohini, I'm sorry AF got you this time lovely. It's heartbreaking when you think it is your month. I hope you aren't too uncomfortable
Pink, Sorry you had a rubbish night sleep lovely. I think something must have been in the air last night as I couldn't drop off for ages either. Then had a dream that on of DH friends announced HE was pregnant and was due on what would have been my due date with the twins....talk about odd!!
Emum, are you next due to test??
Hi to Aunty, Hope, Chele and everyone else xx

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Hi Louby, sorry you had a horrible dream. Isn't it strange the way we process things? I have only had one dream about mine, a few months after the first loss. I dreamt he was a boy and smiling at me. No dreams about the second but as its on my mind constantly I think maybe I haven't fully processed it yet.
Pink re the night sweats the only time I have ever experienced them - and they were really bad - was when Edie was newborn and all my milk had come in and I was constantly breast feeding. Being not very clued up I'm not sure what hormone caused it but could it be a progesterone thing? It would seem like a positive rather than a negative to me but like I say I am no expert. I am going to get some agnus castus today and start taking that. I give myself 1 day of wallowing in AF depression and then it's on with this cycle and preparing for the egg!
You watch all my clients today will be pregnant and I will have a huge setback!
Happy Thursday's all.

 

[pinksmarties]

Mrsmig - I hope they are all over 60 today. You need a day off from people announcing their pg's to you.

 

[pinksmarties]

Louby - Dreams in pg is a good sign its just a shame they are not nice dreams of things like Hugh Jackman or winning the lottery!!

 

[Emum]

Hi louby. Yes I think I might be the next one due to test. FF is truly testing my resolve at the moment. This morning she cheerily announced that 31.9% of pregnant people would get a BFP if they posted today. I am resisting though!

 

[loubyloumum]

Your not kidding Pink. Bring on some nice dreams please!!! And the reality of a lottery win would be even better

Emum you are being so strong this month - I'm very proud I caved and testing at 4DPO - haha what a test waster I am!
How many DPO are you now?

 

[Emum]

CD25 and 10dpo. My usual cycle length is 27/28 days but my normal luteal phase is 15 days as I usually ovulate around day 12/13, and I was late this month. I am telling myself very firmly that I must not cave and test on CD27, as I know that this is not when AF is due this month

Thanks Pink! I forgot to mention that I'm sure I ovulated on CD16 around December 15th, so that's probably why. I think he's assuming I ovulated later than usual given my miscarriage may have set it back. They forgot to take a tube of blood for my HCG levels when I was there last week, so he didn't have a number to look at. They took another tube yesterday, so hopefully I can call before my ultrasound and get that number.
