can't make it to 5 weeks..

[whitglass]

. I am having my second chemical in 3 months, feeling so hopeless about it all. I have a beautiful 2.5 year old who took 6 months to create but stuck right away with no complications. This time I'm getting pregnant right away, I just can't seem to keep it. Not sure what's wrong, because chemicals are so mysterious as to why they happen. I think the next step will be to work on my luteal phase/progesterone and hope for the best. This sucks.

Aww Whit, I'm so sorry Came over from the TTC thread because I wanted to see how you were doing. Such a difficult thing to go through especially several times, I am just gutted for you.

If you are thinking about luteal phase stuff, I recommend Vitex - I have been taking Femaprin and really think it helped.

Big hugs and wishing the best for you!

I am so sorry. I'm going through the same things. My youngest is 2.5 and I've had several cps and a loss to T18 and now think I'm having another cp after trrying for 2+ years. It's so frustrating as all tests have come back normal and just keep getting the "bad luck" answer. I don't have any advice since I'm trying to find some for myself on this subject, but I hope something works for both of us soon! /hugs

Thanks for the support, girls. Coucou I really appreciate your words, I hope to join you soon! And PJS - How frustrating to not have any answers..have you tried any treatments?

sorry for your losses ladies. I'm on CP #3 and have never made it to 5 weeks. I hate that any of us are here, but find comfort in knowing I'm not alone. I'm starting with a new doctor on the 21st and praying I can get some answers.

My previous doctor refused to check progesterone. I'm praying that's the solution.

Praying for all of us!

Cutie I am so sorry. I will definitely follow your story because I am also hoping for some answers - and will make sure to pressure my doctor to order some blood work. I don't want to try again until I get something..

I will definitely post. I've found so much information on BnB. Sometimes too much! I've given up all vitamins and regimens except temps and prenatal. I want a nice clean system for my test. My gut says it's progesterone, but I read so many women that say their doc just can't figure it out and tells them to keep trying.

I did try one round of 50mg Clomid. OB was hoping for a stronger ovulation and that did happen, but sadly bfn cycle. I didn't want to try again as it made my cm turn into a rubber cement type and the mucinex was doing nothing. My next AF also was only 2 days with the 3rd day just pink spotting. I got my BFP that cycle sadly to end in this cp. I thought maybe the clomid thinned my lining too much? OB said it's a really slim chance for these S/Es on clomid, but someone HAS to be that percentage and it was me. How about you? What are you next steps?

Ugh, how frustrating PJS. I'm so sorry. I guess the ONE silver lining if there is one is that for all of us the sperm is meeting the egg and making the journey. That step is good. Now if we could just get it to stay there!

I emailed my dr and haven't heard back yet so I'm just waiting to see what she might say about the next step. I'm hoping to test for progesterone just to rule that out or if it's low get supplemented. I know it can be an easy fix when it's the problem. I will also start taking Vitex which I've taken before - it made my cycles super regular and since it helps increase progesterone that's good too. I also have some suspicion about my prolactin levels...I still secrete some milk even though I weaned my son almost a year ago. That makes it hard for eggs to stick, and Vitex also helps lower that. So that's my plan for now, I just feel like doing something will help me. I've also read a ton about baby aspirin of course. Several years ago I had some colon polyp issues and was told by my GE to take it regularly. Makes me wonder if I should, I figure it can't hurt but I also read so many different things about it. So I guess that's my plan, sorry for the novel!

I wish the docs would come up with these plans for us! I've heard good things about the aspirin too. Fx for you!

 

[whitglass]

I have yet to hear back from my DR! So I'm a little annoyed. But as soon as I do I will let you know what she says. Can't wait for your appt on the 21st, I'm sure you wish it was sooner!
