how long did it take for your hormones to show negative

[Petzy]

Ok Update time!

Got bloodwork results back from this morning... Beta is down to negative status whoop! Level was 1 lol, So im all good to go... I told her I got my positive OPK on Monday and she said to start the progesterone on CD21 every month, and then on CD28 or 29 I will go in for bloods and if I am pregnant, I will keep taking them, if I am not, I will stop that day and get AF. So there is no wondering every month in that they are going to preg test me every cycle... interesting... AHHHHH

So I start meds this coming Sat, and go next sat (nov 30th) for preg test. Lets see what this month brings...

Yay petzy!!!!

I have an ultrasound, blood work and doctor visit because of my super faint tests and pain on my left side... Probably won't be anything. If my numbers are up then I'll probably get another u/s and more bloodwork.. Getting nervous!

Oh that's great you are going in Leah.. I know I would be nervous too. When is that booked for?

 

[LeahLou]

3 pm.

I can't wait to see what this month brings for you!!

Petsy that's great news!! it's nice to have a plan, I'm glad that your doctor is being so supportive.

Leah any news? Hoping that all is okay with you

Jalanis my mc started on Oct 4, I was 8.5 weeks, the baby had stopped growing the week before. I took misoprostol to miscarry, an it appears that I didn't pass everything. The baby had attached to my c-section scar in my uterus. No one noticed this at the time, but it turns out that this is the rarest type of ectopic pregnancy. So I miscarried most of the pregnancy related tissue on the Oct 4/5th, but some cells remained and started growing like crazy, ended up creating a mass in my uterus that went all the way through the uterus wall, I was a day or two away from my uterus rupturing... life threatening and very scary. I feel very lucky that they caught this for me, and were able to treat it, oddly enough this has really helped me to deal with the loss of the baby..

So how are you doing Jalanis? It could take about 4 - 6 weeks for the average mc for your levels to return to less than 5, my situation is a little unusual, so don't compare to me My levels were 1500 on the 31st, but they warned me that it could take longer than usual for me since the tissue is in the muscle.

So excited to be seeing all of these bfps!! LL I feel like you're next ... and you're right there are still a lot of us here TTC I feel like I'll get to watch all of you get your bfps, and hopefully I will catch up and get preggo quickly when we are given the okay to try again.

take care everyone!!!

[LeahLou]

Phew! That's a lot to go through kim! I'm so glad they caught it! I wanna see your bfp come!!

I seriously wanna stick with you girls! Y'all are my fav

I'm actually really nervous about tomorrow. I'm having all my typical preggo symptoms: nauseous all day, cranky, headache, thirsty, boobs hurt, peeing all the time.. But I just don't want to be crushed at the doctors tomorrow. If I'm 3-4 weeks, there's no way they'd see anything! Trying to put my guard up so it's not as big of a deal

I think you ladies are awesome You couldn't get rid of me if you tried, Leah

You should be 4 weeks, right? Am I right that they should see a sac by then? Maybe that's still borderline. At least you will get a beta done. Then in a couple days and with a second beta you should have a good idea of what is going on. I SO hope it is good news for you.

Kim, I'm so glad you are still checking in. So great that you can get back to ttc so much sooner than you originally thought. At at least for now you can continue practicing

Petzy, so glad you are good to go again! Woo-hoo! I hope your doctor's help shortens the time you need to take home a little one.

My daughter told me today that she doesn't want a baby if that means she has to have breasts. LOL She is 3 and she knows that you need breasts to feed a baby but she doesn't want them. We compromised on that she might have small ones I love the things that come out of her little head.

 

[LeahLou]

Good! Same to you!

I would be around 4 weeks. But I think your levels need to be above 1000 to see something and a hpt would definitely be showing obvious lines if my hormones were that high. Although if this is like last time, I didn't get a positive until the day before AF.

Haha! I love kids! Emilia's opposite, she loves boobies She is starting to talk more and it's so great. Except when she overhears DH cussing at his video games and repeats it....

That's great Petzy. Bet you are proper excited but nervous and anxious too. Fingers crossed you get your dream BFP on this cycle, that would be amazing.

With your Progesterone, did they test you and find out you were low?

For my age 42+ I wandered if I was low and that what caused my MMC but when I asked they don't test for it here in UK. I was wandering whether I should get some progesterone something to use to see if that helps. I know you can get progesterone cream so may be I need to look into that.

Good luck and keep us updated with your progress.

How is everyone doing today?

Leah - any news yet with your tests and visit with doctor? I have my fingers and toes crossed for you that it's all good and positive.

Hey Kim, I've replied on the other thread but hello again on this one.

Hope everyone are doing fine.

My bleeding has finally stopped and yesterday was brown discharge. Only took 7 weeks, which felt like a lifetime. That last piece which came away Thursday last week was key for me moving forward with levels dropping etc. All very strange why your body would hang onto parts of a pregnancy.

So we won't wait for AF, getting back into TTC straight away and see what happens. Hoping we will strike a BFP over the coming weeks.

Good luck everyone....

 

[LeahLou]

No update yet. Just waiting...

You are right.. the ladies on here are fab and so supportive.. makes such a big difference in this overwhelming process

and LOL at what your daughter said!! Too funny... I remember my little sister whining about wanting boobs like mine and when she got them she didn't want them and I said I told ya so! lol

[LeahLou]

Alright!
I will have bloodwork results by Monday, but symptoms and preg tests are due to O'ing 2 times this month! My estrogen levels are apparently all over the place. Maybe my body's making up for lost time or I'm just getting a 2nd shot for this month
So it's time to get BD'ing.. again. DH's super excited. Like, more excited than I am. Although my sex drive is through the roof! I'll just put it to good use

 

[tootyfruity]

Ooh that's interesting! How do they know you ovulated twice this month? I'm intrigued, do they do some kind of test?
Enjoy your bd'ing x

[Petzy]

[LeahLou]
