how long did it take for your hormones to show negative

[fandabby]

I have heard some women ovulate twice. I remember watching a programme many years ago about a woman who ovulated twice through a cycle and was pregnant with 2 babies with both of the ovulated eggs, giving her different due dates.

Anyways good luck with catching your egg Leah and hope all goes well with Petzy and progesterone uptake.

How are all the other ladies doing?

I have not bled now for 3 days so wandering when I might ovulate...

Be nice to get some BFP in this thread.

Hi ladies.
I have also heard of women being pregnant with two due dates. I'm sure it's rare but super cool!!
I think my OPK is getting darker Hoping that today's is darker still since it's not positive yet. Not sure if it is totally accurate anymore since I'm diluting my urine but it's the best I can do. I think hubby kind of appreciates the OPKs not cooperating because it means we need to try more often! I have a fairly consistent pain in my left ovary today.

 

[LeahLou]

Thanks for the comment ladies! We dtd yesterday and will again when he gets back from work tomorrow to cover our bases

Fandabby, you will probably O in a couple weeks. For me, it was a lot more uncomfortable than usual because the lining was thinned out. But it's a step closer in going back to normal!

Sara, I'm glad your opks are almost positive!! Get it on!! I have a higher sex drive than my hubby so he just rolls his eyes when it's O time. Your pain may be because of O'ing. That's where my pain came from!

Im ovulating i think!!!! Tonight were getting it on lol

 

[klsltsp]

Hey ladies

So hoping that a bunch of you get christmas bfps!!!

OH and i finally got to bd.... ahh it is a little weird using birth control lol but if i were to get preggo right now they would have to terminate and i dont think that i could handle that.

sarah... fingers crossed for ov and less than 5 today!!!

Have a good day all!!!

Ohhh looks like many of us are gearing up to O! That's awesome Lets see some BFPs in a couple of weeks shall we? Whoop!

AFM, 6DPO and nothing to report lol.. going in for Betas on Saturday, and I am nervous about that.. not feeling super optimistic but that's ok... it was a confusing post M/C cycle, so worst case I will get it back on track next cycle bahhh lol... I am going to take an FRER on Friday at 10DPO so that I know going into Saturday, if its BFN at least I am not surprised then...

The progesterone is going ok, not as bad as I thought it might be.

 

[LeahLou]

Glad you're doing ok Petzy

They can make you terminate a pregnancy Kim?! I would say hell freaking no and find a new doctor!

My levels came back as 3 from Friday. So it went from 0 to 3..

Does HCG fluctuate in the below 5 range? or could it be you are on the way up?!

I know 5 and under is not pregnant , but maybe its rising

 

[LeahLou]

I guess it does? I have no idea! I guess I'll just have to start testing again in a week or so

 

[klsltsp]

Hey leah... wow that's more confusion huh!! hopefully it's moving up!!!

As for making me terminate it would be because my uterus is not strong enough yet to carry a pregnancy, the risk of it rupturing and risking the life of both me and the baby would be VERY high.. so it's worth waiting until I have the okay that they feel my uterus is strong enough and fully repaired from this "hole" I had in it! They said even once this is fully resolved, that they want an u/s as soon as I know I'm pregnant and that if the baby implants in the lower half of my uterus it could be a problem... but I'm not going to worry about that! I know everything is going to work out!!

Petzy glad to hear that the progesterone isn't as cumbersome as you thought so saturday would put you at 11 dpo right? I had my first beta with my last pregnancy at 10 dpo and my number was 48 which they said was normal for 10 - 12 dpo...

 

[LeahLou]

That's a great attitude Kim. I'd be terrified. You're very inspiring

 

[klsltsp]

Leah you're so kind LOL

I live my life with the motto to worry only about things that I can control... everything else does not deserve my energy or worry... including the stability of my uterus. I'm not going to pretend that I'm not worried moving forward with another pregnancy, but my doc seems to think it's definately okay, and since we know about what's happened, I can be watched very closely and not get into a life threatening situation. We will be able to make an informed decision. My OH and I are both engineers so we're very logical and scientific in our thinking, sometimes that's a good thing... sometimes not LOL but we are very informed patients so I feel safe

SO when are you going to test again.. if you just ovulated a second time.. when would you expect your AF? ahh more confusion LOL hopefully you'll never find out because you'll be preggo!! hahaha I know someone who had twins, and when they were born the docs realized that they were conceived 10 days apart..lol maybe that'll be you!!

Oh I see.. well that makes sense that they would want to monitor you with that risk.... I hope you are back healthy uterus and pg asap xx

Yes Saturday I would be 11 DPO My first number at 11/12 DPO when I got my BFP was around 35-40 so within that same range.. I guess we will see what Saturday brings.. and Friday's FRER

Kim you and I share similar outlooks... I try actively not to worry about what I cant control... its hard sometimes but I am doing pretty well. I apply that same thought process to non related TTC things (even more so actually)... you are a tough cookie Kim

 

[tootyfruity]

Glad to see you are all doing well.

Im a bit confused about What's going on with me.
So last week I passed what I believe to be the sac, so I'm counting that as the start of my miscarriage I bled really heavy on Thursday and Friday then it stopped suddenly and I've had period type pains since with some occasional spotting/discharge. I don't know what it could be maybe I will have more bleeding but I'm worried about infection. I got a negative pregnancy test today though which is good.
Anyone have any idea why I'm getting this pain? Thanks

I also counted the day I passed the main "stuff" as CD1... which made sense because I then O'd when I normally would.. I know that's not the same for all though.

I know a lot of people continue to have spotting and cramping on and off for up to several weeks following a M/C, depending on how far along you were. If you are worried about infection, can you get an ultrasound to confirm it is all out now? I had one done to confirm... Its probably not the case but if you are having a lot of pain its worth checking. I do know that sometimes the infection can be known by a foul smell.. so if you have that, definitely go in. I think it should ease up soon for you though... xx

 

[LeahLou]

I guess I'll test next week or the week after.. Idk!

I definitely try not to worry but I am becoming more emotional as I get older... Ugh!

haha Petzy, me too, I started living like this about 6 years ago, when my ex-husband (of 11 yrs) left me when our son was 3 months old... I decided then an there that life was too short and since then I always say "it is what it is" my sister hates it!!! LOL but it's helped me enourmously to move on with my life and learn to be happy ... I CAN control that LOL ... or maybe I'm just a bit of a control freak.... that's possible too LOL

Hi tootyfruity, I have just gone through a weird miscarriage. I started bleeding very heavy and strong contractions 4th Oct and during first 3 days lost lots of clots, they were huge - filled my hand and passed grey material on the 6th. I thought I had passed everything and still bleed really heavy for another 2.5 weeks. I literally had to plan leaving the house to be near a toilet because I was gushing so badly. Anyway lots of cramping and blood did slow down to brown spotting then pink and the bleeding picked up again. I made the excuse it was my fibroids. So then 12th Nov had gush again really heavy, filling maternity pad front to back in 20 mins. This lasted 2 days and 14th passed another piece of grey teardrop shaped material. I tested positive up to this point and it wasn't until the monday after I got my negative. When I saw MW on monday she seemed to think what I passed on the thursday was the sac. I still get pain but I figured that is my uterus sorting itself out and maybe ovaries gearing up for ovulation now.

I think that with you having a negative today, sounds like you have passed everything in which case you should not get an infection. I'm no doctor but it was explained to me that infection sets in if your body hangs onto some pregnancy products and you always test positive even if you have a little left.

Fingers crossed you have passed everything and the pain is your uterus and ovaries getting back to normal.

Sorry if this has not helped.

Good luck.
