laura - big hugs about AF. You're my cycle buddy now :hugs:

kuawen - so sorry about your chemical. Only 3 more days until your appointment. Let us know how it goes and what the plan is <3

Ren - everything crossed for you in this tww!

mo2p - I hope you walk out with answers too love. Let us know what happens.

GP - Based on the OPK I just saw in your journal, my hopes are super up that femara will work!

AFM, temp dropped big time this morning. So AF expected VERY soon. First cycle trying since D&C in July. Getting excited to try, but terrified to get pregnant again!
 
GP, my RE put me on Femara, specifically because she thought I would be a bad responder to clomid. I hope it does the trick for you since I know clomid has been pretty hit or miss.
 
Hi Ladies

I've decided to come and join you all if that's ok? It's been a little over 4 weeks now still I had my miscarriage and lost my twins. It was my 2nd loss in a row, 1st one was a blighted ovum. As I ovulated twice the cycle after my 1st miscarriage and lost the 2nd pregnancy I've decided to wait 3 months before TTC. It's so hard especially as all my friends are now fine and in their 2nd trimesters. But still I'm being stubborn waiting it out whilst having my hormones as well as my mineral and vitamin levels checked.

I'm so scared to try again. It happened both times so quickly I never ever expected to ever experience a miscarriage let alone 2 :nope:

Is there anyone else here in the same boat ?

I hope you all go on to have happy and healthy babies as soon as.

Lots of love xxx
 
Chrissi, lots of us here have had multiple miscarriages and have no children. Myself included. My condolences. This is a safe place! :hugs:



Thanks, ladies. I really hope the Femara works, too! Then I really hope the progesterone works to keep me pregnant!



Confusion, that's the worst feeling isn't it? To be sooo excited to try again, but then terrified of succeeding. Cruel!
 
Chrissi - welcome to the mama bear family :hugs:. Same boat here as well. My first two losses hit me pretty hard. Never expected I'd have one let alone 2 miscarriages. So definitely can sympathize. I've unfortunaly had another 2 losses after that (but this is rare and don't let my story scare you. I've met many third time lucky ladies!). So sorry for your loss love.

GP - it's definitely a strange feeling to have. That's recurrent loss for ya. I have to admit though, squig's current pregnancy is making me unusually hopeful! FX me and you have the same luck!
 
Well thank you ladies !!! I remember I was here before back in August. Didn't think I'd be heading back here. Ah well. My naturopath thinks that I'm low in progesterone so I'm being tested but I'm not so sure. To help I'm trying to quit my two a day coffee in a morning just in case my adrenals are stressed. Having those tested too. Expensive but so worth it. Also having my minerals checked as a deficiency in zinc, selenium could be reason as to why miscarriage happens. Shame gps don't test for this. So private I go. I suffer a lot with weak bones so I wouldn't be surprised if I'm lacking in something.

Been put on herbs too to help regulate, cleanse and tone my body. Agnus Castus, yellow dock, ashwganda, licorice as well as milk thistle, dandelion root, red raspberry, burdock root and some other one I cannot remember. Big cleansing for me. I prefer to go down the natural route and make use of what is already existing in nature. But that's a personal choice and not for everyone.

I eat relatively healthy. But something is up in my body and I feel it. The only time I feel fantastic is when I eat pure and clean foods, raw and organic. I'm simply buzzing then !!

Will let you know what comes back from my results. If you are interested that is and what the naturopath says.

Have a lovely day.

Xxxx
 
Sorry to hear of your most recent loss Chrissi. Yes we're definitely interested to hear your results and what the naturopath has to say, keep us updated!

I've had 5 losses and am pregnant again, just gone 10 weeks. This is as far as I've ever got. I'm not feeling completely secure, but am cautiously hopeful. One silver lining for our situation is that I'm getting weekly scans, and it's awesome to see the development each week!

Hey honey

Did they say why you had 5 ? What was causing it ? Are you doing anything different this time ??

Best of luck to you xxxxxxxxxxx
 
No a cause hasn't been found, but possibly an implantation issue. I didn't do anything for the first four pregnancies (2 were CPs, but the other 2 I saw HBs). For the fifth, I was on aspirin, Clexane and progesterone, which didn't work for me. Then I went to a clinic in Coventry to have natural killer cells testing. I don't have elevated NK levels, but one of my consultants here told me that just getting the biopsy done is helpful because it provokes an inflammatory response which changes the environment of the womb (women often get the endometrial scratch - same as the biopsy but without the testing - to help promote implantation). I'm also on progesterone and I was on Clexane but I had to stop it because I started spotting. I think the things that have made the difference are the scratch and not taking aspirin (it can help women with clotting disorders, but studies are now showing that women who don't have one shouldn't take it). But perhaps the progesterone and Clexane have had a bigger impact than I realise :)

Thanks for your good wishes :)
 
Hope everyone is well!

I'm still waiting to see if Femara will make me ovulate. Any day now, hopefully!
 
Im ok. Went to the docs and got some answers (in my journal if you want to read) and now Im just waiting on AF. Only 2 weeks out from D&C so I have to wait another 2-3 weeks. But doc said that if it doesn't start on its own. So I have some hope.
 
Just got back from the OBGYN's. We're moving on to Clomid, 50mg for the next three months. Doc tried to push IVF a bit but was sympathetic when we told him we just can't afford it. He doesn't want to put me on blood thinners beyond baby aspirin until I have a positive test, so I'm praying that isn't what's going to be the deciding factor for me finally keeping a baby. I can't wait for 2014 to be over so I can have my first Clomid cycle in January.
 
M2p, sorry to read that they couldn't immediately see a reason for your loss of Henry, but glad you will get further testing. I also wouldn't discount what your daughter said, I've heard stories like that before from young children who couldn't otherwise know such things.

Kuawen, great news on the Clomid; there have been a couple of Clomid babies conceived recently so FX for you!
 
Everything crossed GP!

Mo2p - yes read your update, feeling hopeful for you too :)

Kuawen- what squig said, lots of Clomid babies recently conceived in BnB a land. Hoping your next bean is super sticky :hugs:.

CD4 here. Barely spotting. BDing shall commence shortly! Will probably OPKS starting CD9 since my Os have been so early lately!
 
I usually start opks in the evening of cd8... Up until last cycle I was getting a pos around cd12 or 13
 
Hi ladies. I know I have been absent for a few months but I was struggling! We have not had a positive pregnancy test since our loss on 6th dec 2013, which has been hard as the 1st baby was conceived 8 months into trying, now a whole year later and nothing. We are now up to 20 months ttc with no baby on the horizon. I am feeling slightly more positive now and back tracking Ovulation, On day 18 of a 28 day cycle and no positive O test yet, Which is worrying.

Hope all you ladies are good and I see a few are pregnant so congrats to you ladies and baby dust to us still praying for that BFP. xX
 
Glad you're feeling a bit more positive Lesh. Hopefully 2015 will get you that elusive BFP. Good luck.
 
I think 2015 will be a better year for all of us. I start my femara back up tomorrow. Ovulation date is set for Christmas day as long as my follicle ultrasound looks good.
 
I wished on a shooting star last night that 2015 will be the year for take home babies for all those still waiting x
