The 'OFFICIAL' Ex Mirena Thread

[cliqmo]

Oh what a horrid shock Lucy, I'm so sorry! Had you had any symptoms that indicated there might have been a problem? Was it 12wk scan?

 

[MEGARICE03]

oh Lucy! My heart and soul go out to you.. I'm sooo sorry =( .. xoxoxo

 

[Calasen]

Oh Lucy honey **hugs** I'm so sorry for your loss

It was a 14wk scan, my notes had gotten lost in the system so I'd not had any contact with midwife or scans prior to monday. Apparently the baby had not developed past about 10wks by size, but hormones were still being produced and my body still thought it was pregnant so the sac still grew and I was having all the symptoms I should have. My tummy sticks out so far ppl thought I was carrying twins. So sad x I'd been spotting a little blood for a few days, nothing major tho, and had had the odd show of blood through the pregnancy, just what I thought was normal though.
I guess it was just not meant to be this time. I just wish Id been seen and scanned sooner so it could have been dealt with sooner, instead Iv been blissfully thinking everything was ok and I was growing a lovely bump, completely unaware that things were so wrong. I'v got to wait now for blood tests to confirm what the scan showed before they can induce me and sort it all out. I just want it over with so we can get healthy again and think about trying again. I so want a baby.x
Sorry to be so morbid girls, this is the thread of hope not despair.x I hope your all ok x Love and hugs to everyone.xx

[MrsPOP]

lucy Im so so sorry, my thoughts are with you x

 

[lucyoz34]

Thank you for al the lovely messages x really comforting x
I have to wait until next tuesday for them to do anything about it. Even though its clear that there is no life or growth and the blood results have shown a drop in the hormone level, they insist on re-scanning me a week after the first scan just to confirm no growth. Its rediculous, just drawing it all out when you want to get over it and start to heal and hopefully try again x Sorry winging again!x

How are you all ladies?? anyone coming up to testing soon??
Brandy how are you feeling?? Throwing up yet?!xxx
Love and hugs.xxxx

Lucy, I am due to test this weekend. I tested earlier in the week (even though I knew it was early) and it was a BFN. But the test line was barely there so it's possible it was an evap anyway. I did opk's this time and found that my cycle would be 37 days this time around.

Hi everyone

I posted a new thread but then I found this and thought I would join you ladies if that's ok.

This was my first post:

I'm new to this but thought I'd sign up to get some advice. We made the decision in November to try for our first baby and so I got my Mirena out on 4 Dec. My first cycle was 43 days and I convinced myself I was pregnant! Even went for a blood test!
Anyway, I wasn’t pregnant and AF arrived on 16 January.

This month I have been charting BBT and doing OPKs every afternoon at 2pm but so far there has been no sign of ovulation. I’m now on CD20.

Do you think I’m not ovulating or do you think it's possible to ovulate this late in the cycle? According to my fertility apps, ovulation will be on CD30. I didn't think this was possible.

Any advice would be lovely because I’m so confused and I'm so desperate for a BFP.

...............

Update - I have just done my 2pm OPK and it was positive. So shocked but I'm relieved to know that my body is back on track. The only bad thing is that my other half is 3000 miles away and won't be here til next weekend so no chance of pregnancy this month. Will start again in March. In the meantime I'll try and read through the 120 pages of posts on here and try and get up to date with all your stories!

Hey Lucy, I am so sorry they are dragging this out for you. How awful. I cant even imagine. Just remember that we are here for you.

I am doing okay. Super tired. I have given up cigarettes, caffine, and sugar. I am so very proud of myself. I did throw up yesterday, but only because my sons cereal milk had started to curdle when I was doing dishes! Lol! Most of the time I just feel really queezy if my stomach gets even slightly empty.

 

[cliqmo]

Hello newbie :wave:

Glad to read things are getting back on track for you so quickly x

 

[lucyoz34]

Megarice my fingers are crossed for you xx I bet its nice at least to have your body back in a normal-ish cycle after the lovely mirena!

Brandy thats awesome on quitting the ciggies!!! Hard work but soooooo worth it! Lots of PMA to you hun xxxx

Hey newbie, welcome to a lush thread x Seems it can take a while for your body to sort itself out properly after mirena, sounds like your on track though! Keep us posted x

Lots of love and hugs xxxxxx

I should be terting next wednesday - if i dont give in first but still have only had one period since sept so not hopeful.

 

[snipsnsnails]

I'm going to try testing tomorrow, as long as my temperature stays up. If it dips too low, then I'll know that AF is coming and I won't need to waste a test.

I'm feel pretty good about it though!

I felt pretty nauseated today...mostly when I got too hungry. And I was hungry a lot today.
Also I've been noticing that I have to get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, which I only do when I'm Pg.
Also I have been waking up with a super dry mouth and needing drinks of water during the night (probably leading to the bathroom trips lol) I only do that when PG also.
And really weird vivid dreams...like I have in PG. During nap time I had a detailed vivid dream about a grizzly bear that was outside my house and I kept screaming at my dog to get inside while trying to call 911 but I kept dialing wrong numbers. My fingers wouldn't cooperate to dial 911. Then it just got weirder after that, involving the bear turning into a half-human thing. haha!
Oh and gassy too!

I'll update tomorrow!

 

[MEGARICE03]

well, it's my testing day.... So I tested..BFN *sigh*

 

[lauraclili]

I'm sorry. But, you're not out until turns up...
