This is what everyone has been saying to me recently & I really hope its true!

After ttc for 1 year we made the appointment with the our doctor & the tests began, everything with my husband was fine. They discovered I wasn't ovulating every month & then said I had POS. After lots of appointments i soon learnt it would hard for us to conceive on our own & we needed to see a fertility specialist, felt okay about it all really as after having no luck after year it felt things were moving in the right direction. My cycles have always been all over the place so I regularly do pregnancy test if I go over CD50, So back in June this year it was no big deal, done the pregnancy test, left it on the bathroom shelve and went and done the housework! Well, I was speechless when I returned and it was positive! We were over the moon, went straight to the doctors and the guessed I was 5 weeks. We told our families & close friends as we were so excited and it was such a shock. 5 weeks later it ended. I started bleeding and doctors confirmed the worst at the hospital and we left feeling totally devastated, it really was awful. I was about 10 weeks. It took a while to get our heads sorted but as we did I had this feeling something wasn't quite right...............................



I had been doing pregnancy tests to get a negative one after miscarriage so we knew when we could start trying again but they would not go negative, Weeks passed and it was about 7 weeks after our loss i went to our surgery where they did my hcg and I got I gpt a phonecall the next day to say my levels were elevated and that I had to go to hospital to get it checked out as they thought it was a new pregnancy. Ultra sound showed nothing, so had to have an internal where it showed an ectopic pregnancy, I couldn't get my head around it as we actually hadn't had sex since the loss 8 weeks ago as I found it too hard. Then the doctors told us they had missed this and obviously because I had miscarried 8 weeks before it meant it was twins. Anger set in first as this was so dangerous and had went undiscovered but after a week in hospital I just feel so low. 18 months ttc to get to this.


I know there are ladies who probably don't consider me as long time trying to conceive as some people have been trying for years but I wanted to share my story. We are waiting for our first fertility appointment and I dont feel I fit in in the ttc forum.


Sorry for the long post I got kinda carried away there!



I just hope, The best things come to those who wait.

so sorry for your losses, that must be so hard to deal with, sending you massive cuddles.

I beleive the best things come to those who wait, that is my hope and what we need to cling on too

You got pregnant naturally? even though i know it sadly ended in m.c, it does show it can happen and it will happen again for you. Try and keep the faith (i know its so hard to do)

Massive hugs & baby dust to you xx
 
Thank you so much :flower:

Yeah it happened naturally after about 18 months. I think being positive is the only way, it's hard but i just think we when get our babies after a long wait it will just be even more special

Lollylou sorry to hear about your losses what a terrible experience. Your right to be positive, it will happen again for you!

I'm being positive and more relaxed after a yr TT. Ditched all the temping, charts and tests hoping it will help!

Good luck xc
 
Thank you.

I know, it all gets a bit too much with all that after so long! :flower:


Best of luck to you

Oh I am sorry to hear about your losses. Shame on the doctors for missing that pertinent info!!!!!

IMO, I believe any woman who has been conceiving past the standard year is now LTTC. I can totally understand why you don't fit in the TTC forum..some of those girls tend to get bent out of shape and really upset if it doesn't happen in 4-6 months. It can be quite annoying for some one who is already past the average year and knows they're dealing with infertility (hopefully lucky enough to know what there's is).

So WELCOME LollyLou!!! You are in the right area. There's LOTS of TRULY WONDERFUL(can't stress that enough) ladies on here.

i know your heartache all too well.... after ttc for 3yrs!!! i finally got pg on 3rd of clomid we were classed as unexplained infertility as they couldnt find anything wrong with either of us so they gave us clomid we were so happy at getting our BFP and really scared too as we thought this is it we are going to have a baby.... but all this happines didnt last i mc at 5+3 and were devestaed to say the least and just saying why has it happened to us when we had been trying so long when other ppl get pregnant at the drop of hat and pop them out like theres no 2moro.... i had a feeling it wouldnt last tho as i was spotting right before i even had my missed period then boobs started hurt and it was 4 days after that i mc and boobs stopped hurting

i am just waiting for hospital appointment to be refered back and i really hope they give me more clomid as i dont think it will happen without it

i mc in july and im on day 11 now so i hope we can give it a good go this month

I completely agree with ArmyWife. I actually snuck in here after 10 mo. ttc and felt really bad about it because I wasn't "technically" ltttc yet but I had a feeling I would be. I mostly read and didn't make any posts. I do have to say though, once 12 months hit, I started posting freely and the ladies who have been ltttc longer than I have have been more than supportive. I don't know what I would do without this forum. I hope you find the same great experience that I have.

BTW...I am so sorry for your losses and the long hard journey you had with them. :hugs:
 
Yor story is very similar to a friend of mine, she also had twins and the ectopic went unnoticed she was bleeding heavily for weeks and weeks and it was actually on this forum that she read that it could be an ectopic an took a pregnancy test which confirmed she was still pregnant she went straight to hospital and she had an emergencey lap, its so dangerous she could have dies, its so scary! thank goodness you were ok... did you loose the tube the baby was impanted i?, my friend now only has one tube so was given clomid to help her on her way. Ithink they will give you more clomid, sorry you have been through such an awful thing.

as armywife said there are lots of lovely ladies on here and they are very knowledgable so you are in the right place... good luck hun xx
 
I am so sorry for your pain, I can not fully understand what you are going through but I have witnessed close friends go through it.

I really hope you don;t have to wait too long and that you can see someone soon and get your much deserved BFP.

Hi lollylou

I'm not surprised the docs missed it. I am getting more and more angered by the NHS docs. Nurses seem to be fab but the docs I have met (don't want to offend those with good experiences) have worked halfheartedly.
 
LollyLou.. I am so sorry for your losses... and for the way things happened.. hopefully things will begin getting better for you now... and yes I too feel that good, great wonderful things must be right around the corner for all of us that have been waiting... A big hug to all..
