Hi, my husband and I have been married since Jan and I was only 2 weeks along when I found out we were expecting our first baby. I had Just stopped my birth control a month or two 2 previously. We weren't TTC I just felt it was time to get off BC after 10 years of it. And we were married now we would be "ok" if we got pregnant. It was a total shocker!! I spent a few weeks really upset and not sure how to deal with it, but I soon became excited and ready for the journey ahead. We started reno's to be done for the baby and were both really happy.
I was 7 weeks along when I woke up in at 3am with the worst cramps of my entire life. I spend a few hours in the bathroom huddled on the floor in pain. I eventually was able to have a #2 and went back to bed and fall asleep with the pain. I didn't think anymore of it figuring it was just something that came along with being prego and was caused by being constipated. It wasn't till the following afternoon that I went to the bathroom and noticed a "clot"... a friend rushed me to the hospital as we were both really scared and had my Husband meet us there. There was no other bleeding and the hospital did an ultra sound and said the baby was still there but only measuring 5 weeks along. I was probably having a miscarriage, come back in 5 days. 3 more days past b4 I started to bleed... I didn't end up needing a DC. For the next week I'd wake up in the morning relies it wasn't a dream curl up an a ball and just bawl feeling soo empty... Even knowing the chances you just never think its going to happen to you. This was the end of May this year.
After all was said and done I decided I was ready again and we are now TTC again. It was June 18th before I got my first cycle and I've since had 4 cycles to no avail, but my cycles are still irregular (17days, 34 days, 36 days, & 33 days). I use to be 28 days to the day every time, but I was only of BCP for 4 mos before we conceived. I am just entering my 5th cycle. Fingers crosses I can make it happen this time... I still haven't figured out when I'm fertile, but going to keep going anyway. Mu husband wants to just let nature take its course, I on the other hand wast to figure out my body and make it happen
I'm still not "over" my miscarriage, but I think I need to know my body can do this or I'll never get "over" it. I have a hard time being happy for my sister in law who just had her second child, and my cousin who's 5 mos along. Not sure I can make it to their showers, and my husband has a hard time understanding this. But I am taking things as they come...
Fingers Crossed!
