Mama Bears TTC a rainbow - join us :)-- (69 ladies so far)-(29 BFP's!)

[confuzion]

Sounds like a great plan lesh. Hope it helps you de-stress, and that maybe all you need to release a high quality egg and you'll definitely have swimmers waiting! FX for you.

Leah - thinking of you. Hope you're getting better.

Hi :wave: confuzion do u care if I join. I am currently sill Miscarrying naturally. I'm on Day 8. We found out on March 4 (9 weeks 5 days) that our baby bean stopped developing at 5 weeks-ish. yesterday March 11th (10 weeks 5 days) I officially passed my baby.
I have no idea how much longer to expect bleeding but I can't wait for it to be over. My HCG was at 11,500 last week and on Monday it was 7,400. Praying it doesn't take long to get to zero. DH and I want to TTC our rainbow baby as soon as possible.
I am so sorry for everyone's loss although it's devastating I am so glad I can share this with you all. Definitely helps to talk to others who understand and are going through the same thing.
I'm not sure where I am with this cycle but we plan to start TTC as soon as my next period returns.

Welcome jmandres. I am just so sorry for the circumstance we are meeting in. I hope you will get your next period on time to start ttc.

Hi ladies not much going on here. I am not testing at all this month for O day or pregnancy, Just getting on with things. Dtd every other day till af due date which will be 2nd april. It will be my birthday on the 7th so hopefully will get a early birthday present. x

Lesh, sounds great and I hope that it will work for you.

Afm - af should arrive tomorrow sometime. I wasted a few tests this cycle and plan not to do the same next time. I will still use opks and temp next month, but I am thinking of taking b-complex and start pregnacare conception. I need to do something different.

 

[confuzion]

I totally understand the urge to do something different. But I think no matter what you do, you'll have as good a chance as anybody next month. Really pulling through for you. I cannot wait to celebrate your

And everyone else here

STICKY STICKY!

 

[Squig34]

FX for a nice birthday present for you Lesh!

Well it's good that you still have some things you can try, Angel, and hopefully they will be the little things that tip the balance in your favour and do the trick for a BFP

 

[Angelbaby_01]

As sad as it is, it seems like the d&c cleared something, because I don't get so many infections like I did after my first loss. It does make me wonder about the medical care I had back then. I think it's only a hormonal thing after the last mc that will sort it self out with time, but I want to try my best as well. I just wish I could go for the procedure before, because sometimes I wonder if I could have kept the baby from the last pregnancy then. I am trying not to think about it too much. I know I have better chances to keep the next baby than a few months ago and have great doctor now that will look after me. I only need some patience. It not so easy ttc one month and then be in limbo whilst hubby is working. Lol wish we could get preggo with cyber sex. Haha

I know what you mean Angel! If I didn't have the Mirena put in or if I had demanded better care, I'd have at least one baby right now. But we gotta look forward not back. There's a reason for everything.

Blood work hasn't come back yet. Not that I expected it to that quickly. Feel like death and half faint all the time. It's getting frustrating. I want to be up and around with my girl, but all I can do is move from the bed to the couch to the bathroom and back. Fx blood work shows something and it's an easy fix.

 

[Angelbaby_01]

I hope you will get better soon leah and that you will get the right treatment.

I have thyroid problems. Most likely Hashimotos, since my TSH and free T4 is in the normal range - but anti-tpo is >1300.

This has happened AFTER my stillbirth though, 'cause all tests that were taken just after were normal.

And - after the stillbirth my body's been in really bad shape and I lost two babys in week 6-7. It was after the miscarriages they found out I have thyroid problems.

In this pregnancy I'm on Levaxine and also something called prednisolon. Prednisolon is a cortisone product to prevent my body to reject the fetus. The doctors seem to belive that might be the case since my anti-tpo levels are so high. Something auto immune.

Maybe that will be the solution for you as well?

My TSH was 3.0 when I got pregnant by the way, but they recommend 0.5-2.0 when pregnant. That's why I'm on Levaxine, because I'm in the upper normal range (ref 0.2 -4.0).

 

[LeahLou]

This is AWESOME info!! Thank you so much!

They also think this was pregnancy-induced and my body just couldn't get it together. It'd be amazing if all it takes is a little regulation.
I have every symptom for it, so I'd be shocked if it didn't show up on blood work. Down to the fact that I'm a healthy person that exercises daily but keep gaining weight for no reason. I've gained 15 lbs in 2 months but exercise more.. It hasn't added up till now.

Hope your blood work gives you some answers. If it IS your thyroid or metabolism - at least you can live a normal life on proper medication.

I'll keep my fingers crossed

 

[Leinzlove]

Fingers crossed that everyone still waiting for sticky... FALLS PREGO ASAP!!!!

 

[confuzion]

Hope they figure it out Leah. Fingers and toes crossed it's an easy fix.

 

[Angelbaby_01]

I am at cd1 today and will have to sit out this cycle because hubby is leaving tomorrow for 5 weeks. Will still chart and use opks this months to see what my body is doing and if it's regular. So far so good regarding my cycles. Will be going for my 4th cycle since d&c in December

 

[Lulle]

Link to Leah. Bad thing is that you gain weight, but I guess that's liveable as long as we get a healthy baby

[emzeebob]

so yesterday was cd56, today cd1 at least i know wat my body is doing, feel like crap, antibiotics for uti gave me major thrush then i had a major reaction to the canesten cream, new cream and lots of yogurt and nothing is helping

 

[Angelbaby_01]

Emzee, can you perhaps use duflocan instead of the cream? I am so sorry. I really know the feeling.

I hope you feel better soon.

 

[Leinzlove]

Angelbaby: Can't wait for hubby to get home and get those egg(s). Love your plan... You will be seeing all things rainbow soon.

Emzee: Feel better soon. I hope you can find some type of relief.

 

[confuzion]

I wish I could make everything alright for all of you. I hate that things aren't going so great for some of my mama bears.

Feel better emzee

 

[Angelbaby_01]

Emzee, another thing. Did the doctor prescribe probiotics along with the antibiotics? You are suppose to take those 1 hour after the antibiotics and usually help prevent thrush. I take probiotics daily now for the past couple of months and never had it again.

I'm not overly knowledgeable with your symptoms, but from what you're saying here, I'm definitely thinking thyroid. My family has an extensive history of thyroid everything (cancer, low levels, high levels, pre-cancerous, etc) and weight was a big warning sign for most everyone, whether they were gaining or losing unexplainably. The good news is, though, that once they get you on medications, your whole world will turn upside down, but in the right direction. My cousin had thyroid cancer, went through chemo, radiation, surgery, etc and was told she'd never get pregnant because of all that she'd gone through and the crazy high levels of drugs she was on to regulate everything... And look at that, she had two surprise pregnancies with two very beautiful boys! So despite it all, I say correcting your levels can only lead to positive outcomes!

You're in my thoughts! Keep us posted on bloodwork.
