Quick update, and brace yourself as it is not good :/ baby is officially gone.. we had been monitoring my betas this whole time and always shy of doubling, but my progesterone was 2.0!!! Geezus that's low! We eventually got it up to 3.9 but at 7 weeks 6 days no heartbeat anymore.. Friday I had a bilateral fallopian tube removal (when he went I I had cysts on both tubes so he just took Em out) and had D&C. So baby factory is officially closed down!

How are you feeling about this? Feel free to vent! I can't imagine what you are going through right now!

 

[LVnMommy]

I feel ok Now, I had been very depressed afterward but now I see my three smiling kiddos everyday and know I am blessed with them. My OB says it's a true miracle I ever made it out of first trimester with maddix my ONE YEAR old now! With such drastically low progesterone, and IC!! He is my miracle . So obsessed with him so everyone stay positive! ! And thank you for being a part of my TTC journey after 4 MC'S (2 d&c) our TTC is over and my family complete!

 

[Calasen]

Glad your ok Lvn XX Sorry I only just saw this!

I'm still plodding along - losing about 1-2lbs a week so its slow going but I will get there. Am finally half way now as lost 4stone 7pounds,

And while waiting to qualify for the IVF I have started blogging again. Well my blog was seen by an editor for a charity publication, for the the main illness I have, and he asked me to submit anything I want to him. Well I did and now I am going to be published !!! It's a couple of articles but in a medical publication with quite a large readership!! I can't believe it!!

Apart from a baby becoming a published writer has always been a dream, and its starting!!!

Hi, just wanted to welcome myself to the group. I had mirena taken out on may 1st didnt try that month due to my body going out of whack but af arrived normally this month. Im finding lots of new things out with my body that I never really paid attention to before but I am curious...around o time this month the hubby and I were doing the baby dance and I had to make him stop cause it hurt. Like he was hitting my ovaries. Its not normal and was wondering if its due to being close to ovulation? I mean l itterally a day or two after ovulation it was fine and no pain. Im just trying to get a feel for my body. I was young when I had my first child and never paid any attention and now im like what is that what does this mean.

I stopped mirena back in March, I didn't bleed at all until 2 weeks later & since then my cycles have stuck to that. Just found out today I received my BFP! We couldn't be more excited! I had heard so many bad stories of women having problems after mirena. Now we just have to get through these next few weeks & hope baby sticks!!

 

[cmr01]

Congrats laska5... recently I've had on and off again bb's hurting but the past few days non stop restroom use along with having to watch myself with coughing. Lol hubby thinks it's funny when I stop and cross my legs but it's getting kinda bad. We will see though, currently on cd 19 and I think thats too early to test

 

[cmr01]

So far ive had to pee non stop and have had tender bb's, im on cd 21 and took a test this morning and negative. Dont know if its too early but it was my last test for now until next week when af should arrive. Ill just wait til then.

 

[QuintinsMommy]

I'm now pregnant after mirena, we got pregnant on 5th cycle trying.

 

[Calasen]

Congratulations to both on your recent

 

[DaddysGirl70]

Hi guys... hope everyone is doing well...
I see we have some new faces... welcome!

Lvn: glad to see your doing well
Calasen: great job on the weight loss and congrats on your blog

Congrats to those with BFPs

So... needless to say... I am yet to have a BFP... and PCOS is causing my AF to be extremely painful... Regroup sucked... doctor basically says oh well lets try IVF or IUI... its only another load of money to give away that may not work at all! My husband is going to see if he can see a different fertility specialist and maybe have better luck than me... or figure out if theres a problem on his side... Im terribly frustrated and upset but life must go on... what makes it harder to let life go on is the painful AF...

Anyway... hope you guys are all doing well... hugs and baby dust to all...

 

[Calasen]

I'm sorry Keep fighting though honey you never know what will happen unless you try XXX

 

[DaddysGirl70]

Thank you Cala

Im always the first person to have hope and to encourage everyone else... unfortunately Im running out of hope... every month I get my hopes all high just to be let down... like this month...for like the past week I was nauseous and sooo tired and I had nearly a constant headache the whole week and I kept getting these little pains in my pelvis and unlike AF time Ive been constipated... all the signs of me being pregnant... but again it was just my body playing an evil trick on me. I guess every month AF is going to show as pregnancy signs and its just gona be a lie... I am normally so in tune with my body but this whole PCOS thing is just awful... Ive changed my diet to eliminate the foods that cause my PCOS to go crazy... Im in the gym 4 days a week and 2 hours each day... I make sure I sleep at least 6 hours a night (I try hard for 8) I keep taking all these pills... Im doing everything I was told I have to do and yet... every month is a complete let down... I know there are people who have been at this alot longer than my 2 years but I just cant help but think its hopeless for me... my heart breaks every month and Im going crazy between OPKs and pills... Ive been on 2 big vacations this year to try and "cheer myself up" and try to erase some of my sadness but... I thought about it every second of my trips... Life never used to be so hard... then I got Mirena and then I got PCOS... I know they say the Mirena "cant" cause PCOS but Im cant help but think it can...


Today is a new day... Im going to go have my coffee and put on a happy face...

Not sure if mirena has anything to do with my current situation.

Have you all realized weird or late ovulation since getting off of mirena? I received a BFP after 3rd cycle of getting off of mirena. I was suppose to be 9w2day when I had an ultrasound but baby measured 6w4days & we didn't see a heartbeat. My HCG was 55,299- which was higher than what I was thinking if I had had a 6 week miscarriage. I'm not sure what to think at this point other than maybe my cycles still had been a little out of wack since getting off of mirena. I'm just trying to stay positive & yet realistic in all of this as well. I never temped or charted so I really have no idea when I actually ovulated. But I received a BFP the day I was suppose to start my period.

 

[Laska5]

just wanted to post an update & say I did have a miscarriage.

 

[Dawnnita_09]

Laska I am so sorry. I went through two miscarriages before getting my BFP on Friday morning. I have had my mirena out for exactly one year this week. Keep trying and don't give up hope.

 

[Calasen]

Laska I am so very sorry

My Dr is currently trying to convince me that pregnancy would be a huge mistake I am currently 2 stone away from IVF but my weight loss has shown up a degenerative hip and spine/pelvis condition. The weight was actually preventing it from getting worse by holding my hip in the socket and stopping the pelvic bone rubbing away the cartilage where it joins the spine It has been getting worse every day and the more weight I lose the worse it gets. They think if I do get pregnant it could lead to huge complications and mean I would be bed bound for the majority of the pregnancy. I can't even consider not trying IVF, but am terrified off what it will do to me now

 

[Dawnnita_09]

Calasen is there any way they can fix it??? I had hip surgery two days before I found out I was pregnant. I applaud you and all the strength you have to keep your hope alive.
