Starting TTC again

[Maurie]

we are starting to try again after loosing our little one in Feb.

I cant believe we are doing this again. I should be pregnant.

We are increasing the dose of clomid from to 100mg from 50mg. This month I will also have a mid cycle ultra sound and the trigger shot.

I decided to try acupuncture as well to hopefully do something to help the medicine.

We tallied up the cost for this cycle and it is going to cost about $1,000. Our insurance doesn't cover the shot or mid-cycle ultrasound, acupuncture.

Is it bad I am hoping for multiples now so I don't have to do this all again if I don't want.

Anyone in the same-ish place??

 

[No Doubt]

I'm sorry for you loss hun...and no I don't thinks that bad that you want multiples so you don't have to go through this again.

To be honest, my husband has always been sure he wanted kids...me, not so much, just cause of my childhood...broken home. But I finally got comfortable in knowing my husband wasn't going to leave me and my kid.

Now that we are in almost two years, I completely whole heartedly want twins...in part for the same reason. My husband has always wanted 2 kids and I said I would give him two, but he had to get a vasectomy afterwards...as if we'll need that when we do get preggo and give birth, lol.

But you're not wrong so don't feel that way. It takes special person to first of all want more than one baby at a times, and then to actually be able to care for multiples. You will be pregnant again with a sticky bean and hopefully you will have multiples. But if not, you never know...you may be one of those people that it takes a while to get preggo, and once you do, you can't stop. So your future pregnancies may not take as much time.

Good luck!

I'm so sorry for your loss hun

I've never had a loss..or a pregnancy at all actually...but since I'm going to be 35 in January I'm hoping for a beautiful set of twins when we go for IVF

I know it's a higher risk pregnancy but I honestly never ever want to have to go through TTC again

not to mention I can then have an excuse to get a little twin stars tattoo

I know it has to be hard to loose a baby...and I am so sorry!!! I am glad you are trying again...and I will pray for you and your husband and a successful pregnancy.

We are TTC too...one day 2 of Provera...I have PCOS so I dont get my periods (used too!!) I took an opk for the fun of it and it is soooooo close to being positive...it's crazy...lol...not sure what to make of it!! Doc office closed before I took it so I couldnt call. We are not suppose to BD at all these 10 days...so I hope the test was just responding to the Provera but not causing ovulation...looking forward to starting Clomid again (100mg)....praying for a BFP!!! Praying for us all!!!

Thank you for your support.
Everyone around me thinks I am crazy for wanting multiples. They all know about our struggle and our loss.

When we did get pregnant I said I didn't want the high risk, but I now want any risk. I just want that chance.

Pambolina, Good luck with the provera! Hope you didnt O... Why are you not supposed to BD for the next 10 days? When are you starting Clomid?

I just wanted to say welcome back to LTTC.

Thank you Armywife. . . It seems like there is a new batch of ladies here in LTTTC.

I am sorry you are still here. Is everything going better for you?

 

[pambolina21]

There is nothing wrong with wanting multiples...I would love to have twins!!
The doctor said that because he wants my hubby to have a good "deposit"...lol...We are not sure about his count...I will be scheduling his SA tomorrow...and I have an HSG coming up after I finally start my period...never had one before...not sure what to expect!!

We have been trying to conceive for 2+ years....my daughters are 8 years apart and we really want our last child to be closer in age.

I took a long break from BNB because when we stopped TTC it was hard for me to stay involved with something I wanted but couldnt have.

I am in the same spot as you, having to start over again after our first pregnancy in 5 years was lost. I found out Monday that I had lost a lil girl. So now I am having to start all over and in the back of my mind I keep thinking "I shouldn't be doing this, I should be in my second trimester right now!"

There are some new ladies on here, but the old ones are still around. Or are on a break to conserve what little sanity they have left.

Meh, it's still hell. Just as I'm trying to potentially accept the childless card, my other SIL is pregnant with her second. So now it's 3, 2, and me at 0 . Just discouraging when everyone else gets pregnant but you. You know how it is. I wish we could all get out of here and create our own elite baby club. A girl can dream.

Clarks, I'm so very sorry to hear about your miscarriage.
