Trying before AF?

[xxemmyxx]

Thanks Viets

When I was 3 weeks my frer line was lighter than the control, it got darker everyday, it was the same as the control at about 4 weeks and darker than the control at 5 weeks. Dunno if that helps, every woman is different.

OMGosh Viets, congrats!!!! STICK BABY STICK!!!!!!

AFM, almost 12 and a half weeks preggo, baby is doing perfectly in there. We saw him/her on ultrasound last Wednesday and he/she was moving all around and looking adorable I check with the doppler several times a week to keep me sane (doctor says it is perfectly safe), and have been having fun "playing" with LO lately with it. LO plays "hide and seek" with it and I have to chase him/her, then he/she moves all around and I can hear it on the doppler going "whoosh" "swoosh" So cute! Will be in the 2nd trimester finally on Saturday! SO excited about that

I am so happy for you Marks...I had a doppler at 15 weeks and couldnt work it out...LOL it was fun to play with though.
Right now I have days left of this pregnancy...my last appointment was Friday. They won't do any others unless it goes over my Due date then will look at how my options would be for getting it out safely. I can't wait to meet this little guy.

Just went to the bathroom and am having some bleeding. I'm pretty sure that this is turning into another MC. Understandable, as the line was lighter than the control at about 5 weeks. Boo. Totally not fair. We weren't eve trying this time. I think I might be swearing off sex.

Viets I'm praying for you

Thanks Libby Hard to believe your LO is almost here! So excited for you!

Viet! Have you been tested to find out why you keep having these miscarriages? I know a girl on another forum kept on having early miscarriages (5 weeks or less) and the RE finally got her on a medication system (shots and whatnot including Lovenox) that has enabled her to finally carry a baby to term (well, she's 19 weeks now, but everything has gone smoothly so far), and they were trying for 4 years! Again big hugs!

Thanks girls. I have been bleeding heavily and passed a good sized clot this morning. I'm not going to even bother going to the doctor this time. I have literally had every test they have to take, and everything has seemed fine. The next step would be genetic testing which is really expensive. We aren't ready to do anything that isn't natural. However, if this continues and I don't have a baby by 30, I might start to think differently.

On a different note, I have been learning about crystals and the healing properties of stones. I bought every single one that could possibly help me with infertility and have stated to religiously wear them and keep them with me at all times. Hopefully they can help to heal me, along with another detox, special diets, more acupuncture and yoga.

Hello Ladies

I have been lurking here for a while but want to introduce myself.

I'm 29 years old, husband is 32 and we have been married since 2009.

It's been exactly one month since I found out I had a MMC @ 9 weeks and had a D&C the same day (baby was only measuring 8 weeks). This would have been our first child.

My pathology results also came back yesterday and it turns out the fetus was missing a X chromosome (Turners Syndrome). I'm not sure how I feel about that, on one hand I feel relieved because I know I didn't do anything wrong, but on the other hand now I know it would have been a girl - my daughter - so it feels more real

Anyway, my HCG levels were down at 25 this past Monday (FINALLY) and today I got a non blinking "Smiley Face" on a Clear Blue Easy opk. So hopefully I am ovulating today (but who knows how accurate that really is??)

I hope to conceive before AF... Would that even be possible now? Considering my HCG levels took 1 month to level out?

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the information I have received from this thread and wish everyone luck.

It feels much better knowing I'm not alone....

 

[xxemmyxx]

Hi welcome and sorry for your loss

If you got a smiley face on an opk then that sounds really positive! You wouldn't be ovulating if there was too much hcg in your system still. I would get bd'ing!! I hope you get your BFP before AF but will also say mc can do weird things to our cycles and it can take a few to get back to normal so don't panic if AF doesn't come when it's supposed to or your opk's say weird things. It will get back to normal and from a lot of what I have read on here women who have d&c resume normal cycles a bit quicker. Good luck xxx

 

[tinypunkee]

Thanks Emmy!! I had really really bad cramps and bloating the day I got that "Smiley" after BDing...and still no AF... so I guess we shall see...

Today the smiley is gone and replaced with an empty circle, the cramps and bloating are also gone.

This is just so weird!

I just went out and bought tampons to be prepared ((

 

[xxemmyxx]

I got bloating and cramps when I ovulated and got pregnant with this little one so that could be a good sign!

 

[Libbysmum]

All the best ladies...I am 40 weeks today but no baby twinges yet! I've waited enough don't you think? Time to evict him I reckon so I can see his lovely little face.

 

[xxemmyxx]

Good luck libbysmum!!

 

[flapjack10]

GL Libbysmum!

I'm 40 weeks tomorrow and feel the same way!

Emmy I'm so happy for you - 12 weeks today!

xxx

 

[xxemmyxx]

Thanks flapjack I have a scan today, I'm so nervous!! I will post a pic of the jelly bean later and I spose I should get my own journal instead of hijacking everyone else's!

Libby I know you'll complain at me for this but I had a miscarriage the same month as you, your now 40 weeks and I'm still TTC. And you think you've waited enough! You've got it lucky girl. Any minute you'll be having a healthy baby and I'll be reaching the anniversary of my miscarriage in a few months probably still not pregnant. On top of that I have irregular cycles not due to PCOS so got to go back to the doctor in a couple of weeks for that.

Other than that. Congrats everyone for being pregnant

Mummy2o sorry your feeling down but we have all had a hard time getting here. It took me a year after mc to get my BFP and I had all the drama of irregular cycles, low sperm count etc etc but I am sure there are ladies who have it so much worse than that! Point is we all supported each other through all that. It was hard to see bfp's month after month but I have grown really close to the ladies in this group, this feels like my little home here and even though I am pregnant now I still feel like I wanna keep in touch with everyone here after all we have done for each other. Sorry if the pregnancies upset you I know it can be tough and feel like it's everyone else but you, you will get your turn I promise.

Re: the irregular cycles

I tried everything!! Herbal remedies, agnus castus, royal jelly etc in the end I took the progesterone only pill norethisterone to bring on a period, the next month I got my BFP. So ask your doctor about that cus I wasted months doing other stuff while they suggested it would "sort itself out"
