Recurrent Miscarriage Thread

[mpepe32]

Mpepe I get so angry when they wont do tests! One mc is too many! Grrrrr. Start with 50 mgs of extra b6. If you don't get preggers and your LP is still short you can up it to 100 mgs. Don't take more than 200 mgs.

Thanks heart tree, I spoke to a pharmacist and she said I could take up to 500 but right now, I'm taking 200 mg, and we'll see if it does anything. Thanks for the info!

Pet- welcome, kinda weird to be welcomed to this thread, but the women here are wonderful. Very supportive and caring.

Heart- how are holding up girl? Haven't seen much of u on here. Any new doctor appts coming up?

Sandi- how's the babe?! Any new updates? Ill have to take a peek at your journal

Mpepe- are u just seeing a reg ob/gyn? I was too, and we did usual testing such as thyroid, prolactin, gluclose and then she didn't seem to have a game plan after so I asked what the next step was and now I will see a FS wednesday. I've had 2 miscarriages and I feel like that should be enough to make sure there are no underying issues before it happens again. Maybe if u press your doc they will refer u to someone else?

So as I already said, my FS appt is Wednesday, and im nervous ladies!! So scary...and weird feeling. So, idk, not final, but involved?? Like from here on out, its game on! Not that it hasn't been, but god, I just want to have a baby without all this b.s!!! Ugh, but, trying to keep chin high...and thinking postively. I will have a baby ladies, we all will one day, somehow! We all deserve it!!

Hey Kat, I am assuming baby is fine. I have my days were I am a ball of nerves and I am so scared at my next scan there will be no hb. I have even had dreams about it. I do have a dr appt on tuesday...with a new dr and I am hoping he will work out as he is closer to home and I will feel a lot more comfortable if I have to make another ER visit.

I am praying for all you lovelies and hope you all get sticky healthy beans soon.

Good luck with your appointments Kat and Sandi. Keep us updated. I'm getting a second opinion on October 14. My husband and I have decided to ttc this cycle regardless. Certainly other women have had babies with adenomyosis so I'm going to cling to the hope that I can too. I'm also going to try to get tested for NK cells.

So, I just got done with a family dinner. Now my brothers girlfriend is pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ladies.....im so so so exhausted and tired of being surrounded by it! Everyone. EVERYONE!!! I love her to death, she's a beautiful person inside and out, and im so extremely close with my brother, but it makes my heart hurt...

 

[reedsgirl1138]

Kat huni I am so sorry for the pain your going through. I am praying for you as well hun. Do you have a fb?

Kat I had a similar thing happen last week. My boss pulled me into her office to tell me that she was 4 1/2 months pregnant. She started working at my agency right when I had my third mc. She knew my history and wanted to tell me in private before telling everyone else. She is 37 and this is her first pregnancy. They have been trying for a while apparently. I'm turning 36 in 9 days. I told her I was happy for her but it would be hard for me. Later I did the math and realized that we both got pregnant at the same time. So now I'm going to have a visual reminder daily about how far along I should be. I'm so angry and tired of being tested like this. There is only so much one person can endure. Luckily I can work from home 3 days a week so I don't have to look at her every day. I guess the other good thing is that she won't harrass me for taking time off for doctors appointments! I'm sorry you are dealing with this too. It feels like a punch in the gut doesn't it?

The funny thing is that I have no issues with my B&B girls getting pregnant! It's just people elsewhere that bother me. Go figure!

I know what u mean about being happy for the ladies here, but not feeling the same for others. I think when someone has had a loss, they realize the heartache and yearning of wanting a baby.
That was nice of her to pull u aside to tell u in person. I wish my brother would have done that instead of telling us all at once, while I was surrounded by 6 nieces, 3 of them being 1 and under!
I came home and sat in my tub, crying and just relaxing. My sister came over and knocked on the bathroom door to check on me and I lied and said I was ok. Now I feel bad for pushing her away when she tried to help.
That will be hard to see your boss be right where you should be. It seems like torture to have to be reminded of it everyday.

Sandi- do u mean facebook? Yes I do have one.

Kat and heartree - I totally understand how you both feel. Everytime I see my brother's girlfriend (or anyone else of childbearing age) I worry they're about to tell me some happy news. It makes me feel horrible being so jealous. Some people just have no idea how hard things can be for some of us. Still, if its character building then I must have an amazing character by now.

Reedsgirl - keeping everything crossed for you but this little one is a sticky little fighter I'm sure.

 

[LunaBean]

Have my RMC appointment tomro, scared outta my head!

 

[heart tree]

Lamb, whenever I see pregnant women and I feel the jealousy creep in, I try to remind myself that that woman might have also had recurrent mcs. It sometimes helps me get over the jealousy (but not always!)

Luna, good luck at your appointment. Please keep us posted!!!

 

[kat731]

Yes luna- good luck!

I have had two miscarriages in a row this year. Going through my second one at the moment. I am so upset. I can't get my head around it. We have one child already and thought i would have no problems having another. Something must be wring with me.

 

[Lamburai1703]

Heartree - I will try that and see if it helps. I HATE feeling so jealous.

Luna - good luck and please let us know how it goes.

Baker - sorry for your losses. I hope you and your OH are helping each other through this difficult time.

Baker, big fat Make sure you take plenty of time for yourself!



AFM, I've got an appointment on Tuesday with an obstetrician to hopefully figure out a PLAN!

 

[kat731]

Sorry for ur loss baker ...

Pet- good luck! Definetly let them know you want a game plan and a timeline...sometimes you have to be proactive with appointments!

My appt with the FS is tomorrow! Yikes! Wish me luck ladies

 

[petitpas]

Good luck today, kat! X x x

 

[kat731]

Thanks!
Last night my mother and I got into a huge fight. She asked what time I had my appt today and I told her I didn't want to tell her what time because I didn't want to get a phone call right after. To me, if everyone knows we are seeing a specialist and have a game plan, that should be enough. She then told me that m brother gf, who is now preg, was afraid to tell me that she was. So my mom told her, "oh well, she has her appt coming up and life moves on anyhow".!! And she wonders why I don't want to tell her every detail! So then I started crying, she tried to console me and I said no and she got mad and stormed out of my house and won't return my texts! Ugh...so much for having a positive day.
