Hi Girls,
Not sure if you remember me? I was due with Baby #1 on October 25th through my first fertility treatment (IUI) and lost my little one at 16 weeks (8 weeks ago today)
I just wanted to check in and see how you are all going and to wish you well. I would have been 24 weeks today I believe.
I got AF back 4 weeks and 4 days after being induced and felt ovulation pain 2 weeks after losing bub. We were referred to do IVF for our next fertility and were booked for our first cycle to be August with our drug and nurse chat and counselling to be later this month. Because I felt ovulation pain again (and was doing OPK's) I felt like we should try from home whilst we waited, although having half an ovary and hubby having issues too I wasn't expecting much!
I had a few squinters but on the day of my follow up Obgyn appointment where we were to be told the results of bubs post mortem, I got a definite
My Ob sent me up to the fertility clinic to book myself in for pregnancy monitoring and I had my first bloods yesterday to confirm. It's still early days, I am not yet 4 weeks and I am scared as anything....and in complete shock!
All the bloods I had taken over the last 8 weeks have shown me that I have an auto immune condition similar to arthritis (won't harm a pregnancy), plus my rubella is borderline, my vitamin D is low so am on double supplements and I am borderline for protein c deficiency which means as soon as a heart beat is detected, I need to start on baby aspirin. So valuable things for me to find out.
Anyway didnt mean to write war and peace but just wanted to check in with you all (tentatively).
I wish you all well (hugs)
