Need advice on TTC after a miscarriage, before AF

[Ltweety]

MrsRose, sorry to hear about your chemical...I think it probably would have happened even with the treatment honey, although it certainly would be helpful to increase your progesterone.

I do agree that DR's can be soooo frustrating. They just seem so distant from the emotionality of the process. I am definitely the squeaky wheel at my Dr. and pretty much insist on things until they give in. It sometimes takes me five phone calls and a lot of persistence but I make them do it. I'm sure they've written "Difficult Patient" on my chart, lol.

Hang in there, and hope next cycle is the one. You might look into baby aspirin and natural progesterone cream since you don't need a prescription. I use Progestacare and buy it on Amazon. It was recommended to me by a doctor (a naturopath). It has increased my luteal phase length from 12-13 to 14 days. I'm on 15dpo right now waiting for AF...

Thanks Ltweety. Just curious, why do you think it would have happened even with the progesterone? This is still new to me so would love to hear any insight you have. I realize there definitely could be something else causing the CPs...waiting to hear back from the doctor on what tests she recommends DH and I take. I want to rule out as much as possible, especially given my age. I'll be 34 in March. I'm just really hoping it's the progesterone since it can be easily treated. Ugh...again, wish I had a crystal ball!

I'm a bit crunchy myself so will definitely look into the progestacare. I prefer to go the natural route when possible. DH and I are seeing an acupuncturist on Saturday so curious to see what he recommends.
