Hi all

Love to share cycle stories with you all

im am in the same boat...ttc for about 14/15 months, also 2 losses and on cd 4

I'm on cd 5 and have been ttc for 10 months no such luck so far

Hello hopeful and bee. So nice to hear from you both.

Hopeful - I am so sorry for your losses. Do you know the cause? I'm finding it difficult to remain positive and keep the belief that all will work out ok.

Bee - have you had any testing yet?are either of you doing anything differently this cycle?

 

[hopeful0404]

hello, they think the cause of mine were from MTHFR which is a blood clotting disorder. Im so sorry for your losses as well, i know it is very hard for me also to think everything will work out. but now it has been almost 6 months since my last pregnancy so my doctor prescribed me clomid so i will start that tomorrow

CD2 and only disappointments so far. Been TTC since January.
So sorry for the losses.

hanrh- this cycle I'm going to try preseed. we have not had testing yet... I'm really nervous about how to get that part started

 

[hanrh]

Hopeful - good luck with the clomid! Will you take any other medication following a bfp now? It's very positive they have identified a cause though as means they can do something!!

Hi Libby ! Will you be trying anything different this cycle?

Bee - I have used preseed and have fallen pregnant both times with it. Will definitely be using it again this cycle!!

 

[Libbystepof4]

Will be using OPK and BBT. Haven't been up to this point. Was sort of hoping it would just magically happen the instant we decided to do it. Lol.
I'm seeing a lot of people having success who talk about pressed and primrose. I am impatient but really, we haven't been trying THAT long, so I'm trying to take it in stride. Its just disappointing to hope so hard and see it not happen every single month.

 

[hopeful0404]

thank you, yes i am taking methofolate and b6 now while ttc and after a bfp i will be taking progesterone and also a daily injection of lovenox which is a blood thinner, did they find a cause for you?

 

[hanrh]

Libby - I'm completely addicted to temping and opk's. I think it's brilliant and makes you feel as if you have given it the best shot. If you need any advice let me know!

Hopeful - wow that's great that you have access to all of those things. Let's hope it does the trick! Both my loses weren't linked. My first little boy has patau syndrome which was chromosome linked. We were tested and neither of us is a carrier of anything. The second was a partial molar pregnancy which is apparently very rare and just bad luck. My consultant said I'd just had a very bad draw.

What date will you all be testing this cycle? I'll make a list

 

[hopeful0404]

hanrh- I am sorry. I am very lucky to have the ob that i have, she has helped me from day one and i have not had to be seen by an RE thanks to her!...i am just really hoping this solves the issue. I will be testing on the 15th of june.

 

[Libbystepof4]

I thought maybe doing those things would help me feel at least a little more in control. So far it has felt like throwing darts blindfolded and hoping for the bullseye!

 

[bee0633]

I will be testing June 14th
to you all!

 

[hanrh]

Hopeful that's great news about your ob. What is an re?

Oh no Libby! Have you been using ff to track the info you get? (See my chart in my signature)

Bee - will add you to my list!

Hi ladies.
TTC for 18 months. No pregnancies ever before.
Sitting on 5dpo at the moment and spotting soft pink for 2 days now. Not sure if IB. Never experienced before. AF not due for another 13 days

 

[hanrh]

Hi Francesca. I have never had ib spotting before so can't help you there. Fingers crossed though!!! Have you had any testing done yet?

 

[hopeful0404]

Reproductive endocrinology....so anyone have any big plans for memorial day?

 

[hanrh]

Ah I see!!

Is memorial over in the U.S.? I am UK here but we have a lovely long weekend. I am a teacher so have a week off school now too!! When I lost my last baby I made a vow to myself to treat myself to a pampering session each month. So tomorrow is a pedicure ready for the summer!! Not sure what colour/design to have yet but I'm very much looking forward to relaxing.

How about you all?

 

[hopeful0404]

memorial day is Monday so we have a three day weekend....that is a great idea to paper yourself once a month! so what time is it in the UK?
