ttc after a d&c

[mommylov]

My dr just got back to me and ordered a blood pg test for me and i will get the results tomorrow. Im pretty sure I know the answer but just incase. She asked me if I wanted a quant test instead whcih I didnt know what that would do so I just opted for the regular blood pregnancy test. Should I switch that?

Just saw that the Quant test would give me actual level totals whereas the other one is going to give me a simple yes or no. Keeping my fingers crossed in the event that I get a - with this test that they can figure out whats going on.

I dont think so.. I got my + opk on the 17th and its now the 29th so I think thats a little late.

its not really hon, pos opk is a day r 2 before Ov and implantation is 7-10 days after Ov so....... might not be, still fx for u sweetie, im really hope its not that ugly witch xxxxxxxxxxxx

My 'thank you' button is gone but THANKS Laura. I am getting cramps and weird things happening so Im pretty sure its AF thats coming. I kind of wanted to see the dr before comes just incase they need to so an ultrasound or something. I dont want to wait until after to see what the problem is. I just feel like my window is getting smaller and smaller. I more so want to have my kids soon for our parents too. They arent getting any younger and my parents arent grandparents yet

Oh Amy, I wish you weren't feeling so down. Honey, do what you feel is right. IF you don't fall pg this round and you feel you need to get seen, go for it hon. I am pretty sure there is nothing wrong and that your body is just getting back to normal. I mean, what you went through 3 months ago was very traumatic. Let me assure you that you will fall preg when you body is ready. And like the others said, you get those + opks 1 to 2 days before you ov, so you aren't out of the woods yet. Around what day is af due? Do you usually get an early af. I almost never get my af early. I am pretty sure I didn't fall pg this month, around time of ov too many things happened with my tooth ache, the medicines I was taking, etc. I am also thinking that it might take a little longer for me to get pg, since I was almost half way through pregnancy. All I can say is that I hope you find happiness through this ttc journey and know that you are not alone.

Amy get the quant (beta) test. If its 5+ ur pregnant. I had late ib but mine was pink and only one wipe. It took 4days after for 14hcg level and I still couldnt get a positive home preg test. Hang in there. I second the girls keep ur appt try to stay calm and see what happens. Just know ur appt is there. Im opposite as u. Dh and I have house I have good career but dont work really so we have no liquid funds. I need my baby so I can start a foundation since my job is dangerous to be around radiation around pregnancy. Hugs sweety prayimg its not af.

Angel glad ur safe. So far so good here. But wind is too stromg to leave house. The rains so heavy and eye of storms still in t he ocean so hSnt made land fall yet. Some neighbors are without power alrrady and weds is far away it feels. Things are wacking against our windows too. Just made brownies incase we lose power my dh has a snack. He makes me angry. We are fighting. He has high cholesterol and knows I cant stand the smell of fried food and its all he eats last four weeks. I get so sick. I made chicken noodlesoup steak dinner with mash potatoes vegs it all got thrown away. He wont eat what I cook amd I cant eat so im cookin for him. Ugh im so angry with him yet hate fighting. He says I waste food yet I tell him saltines reeses and vit water with prenatal vits is all I can stomach atm. He thinks I lie. Whatever im fedup. is storm still by u?how is ur area angel?

Natasha have u tested?
laura hi to u and baby (ur son maybe)!!
I cant imagine the subways in ny being so damaged by this storm. Ugh and gas prices will rise???? That dont make sense! How annoying!

Thank you ladies. I was looking at my calendar and my next round for ttc is during Thanksgiving and Black Friday shopping...we'll be staying with my family, so I'm thinking I need to book a hotel room While I love staying at my sister's, BDing is not an option there!

Amy. My RE will see me through the 1st 8 weeks, then she boots me out! I'll see high risk Dr due to my age and recurrent mc, but most go back to their reg OB/GYN. What did you tell your Dr you wanted to be seen for? Many test are run on CD3 and CD21.

I will also be seeing a high risk doctor. I have never seen one before, I hope they pay more attention to our problems. I am going to try and see a well known doctor who practices here in the Bay Area, that seems to have a lot more experience with 30 something mothers. This area is filled with fertility clinics and many first time mothers are in there mid to late 30s. I am a rare one with the 13 year old. I am always younger than the other parents, and it is actually annoying because they treat me like I am a kid too. They never seem to be interested in making friends, I have tried, but they flock toward the older parents. It doesn't help that my daughter looks much older than her age and they ask if I was a teenager when I had her, and I am like no I was 20 when I gave birth. People can be a little judgmental at times.

 

[jen435]

jessica your young still sweety. those high risk doctors are great! i am currently seeing one now and they anwser your questions give so much info and make sure you leave without concerns. im very pleased. just know your history and address your concerns to them so they know how to comfort you properly. i realized that if i dont speak up with everything i end up having to call midweek. now i write everything down and bring notebook to appt. a little ocd perhaps but they do understand and spend time with you. my reg obgyn does samething for me now also! so find a place your comfortable with and be upfront about all your concerns so they can schedule you accordingly to ease your mind! nov 5th seems sooo far away to see my baby again but im trying to realize its just a week away!

where are you in your cycle jessica? hope all is well for you! your dd is beautiful and that is sad ppl think you where so young when you had her. really she is well cared for and your responsible shouldnt that mean anything? its not there business. some ppl look young all there life and thats great! dont listen to them. you dont age and thats a good thing! when they have wrinkles and your same age then you can put it in there face!

Looks like we are about to loss power ugh!

 

[lilesMom]

Love ya too Laura, and thank you. I know you have hard your fair share obstacles as well as the other girls here. I just dont understand why bad things happen to good people. I feel like Im at the lowest point I have been in a long time. I know that I have moved on and have dealt with the loss but everytime I see that -, it just reminds me that I wont have my baby in Feb. My gf that was pregnant with me just told me that she is going on bed rest for the rest of her pregnancy which is just two months. It kills me that my baby wont be here a month after hers. I know this sounds awful and nothing will ever replace the angel that I loss but I almost feel like me being pregnant and having a healthy LO will somehow heal that wound and that my angel will be in our next lo's...it makes me sound crazy but the idea of it just brings me peace which is why I long for this baby so much.

i think we deal with the loss as best we can but i dont think we might ever be totally at peace with it,
i feel the exact same honey, i dont like meeting my Sil who is due within 2 days of liles date cos it kinda hurts a lot xx i feel bad , its not her fault r her babys fault or not even like i wish she wasnt preg, i just wish we hadnt been so close in time cos its constant reminder, i keep thinking i should be 8months preg and due in less than 2 months rather than just over 2 months now
but i am glad i have what i have now and just really hope i get my LO this time, xx
u will too honey and i really hope its way sooner rather than later xx
it did help me heal a little in a way but it opens up a new can of whoop ass too to get bfp. now i have guilt that its not lile in my belly and some guilt sometimes at being happy ifykwim. now im gone a moany soz.
but i hope u know what im trying to say, we have been dealt a bit of a shit storm here and we have no choice but to come out of it stronger
cos i dont like any other option available
god im rambly, sorry , i just wanna help u in some way but im getting lost in my own crap soz.
good things happen to good people too and it starts right now cos we deserve it xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[mommylov]

Thank you all so much. I think they ended up doing a reg blood test. I just read your responses but was too late as I'm already home with a cotton ball taped I my arm. The lady taking my blood was so sweet. She said are we hoping for pos or neg and I said pos but I don't think it will be. And she took my blood vial and said sending lots of pos vibes I get the results tomorrow morning but I'm not even excited about it because I'm not expecting it to be pos. when the results are in, then Ill be making a n appt to see my dr.

Angel and Jen, I really hope you guys are safe!

Lots of love and hugs to you all and thanks for your so so so sweet and kind words I love you all tremendously.

 

[horseypants]

[xoxo4angel]

Fingers and toes crossed Amy! Is it tomorrow yet?

Laura ~ love when you share even if you think it's just rambling!

Jen ~ Men!! Do they not appreciate anything? I vote stop cooking for him if he is going to find fried food anyway...you cook because you care and are concerned! Wish I lived close by, I'd eat it! Hope you guys still have power! We've been lucky so far...power has been flickering. Many of our roads are flooded, so schools and work places are closed tomorrow. Nice having DH home to snuggle with!

Jess ~ The other Mom's are bound to be jealous of you! You have your youth and a fab family! Fx for a BFP

Tash ~ Helllooo? Hope you are well!

Bethany ~ liking the new place?

[TTCSecrets]

Hey. Firstly hope all you USA girlies are doing okay with that storm!! Keep safe!

Im a bit irritated today.... DH had money saved up to buy a car instead of us both using mine, andwhen i found out i was pg, he said that he will keep saving it and we can buy loads of baby stuff when i give birth, now im not pg, he hasnt touched it since, yet a few days ago he went n bought a car for himself, and then lied to me and said a friend was just leaving it here for a few days :/ now hes told me the truth and im not being selfish i know its his money, its just that i feel like hes given up on the baby thing if that makes sense? i dont really care about the car cos he does need a car, but its more like, oh well we arent having a baby now so ill buy a car :S

MEN

Im 12dpo waiting for af to show on thursday, dont really feel pg and cervix is low hard and firm which ive read is a sign af is coming, if pg normally it stays high apparently... so im not even entertaining buying any frer tests i would be wasting money lol!!

I am also 12 dpo Natasha. Weren't we also ov the same time last month? I am also not buy frer cuz I know af is coming also. This is just a bad month all together. Sorry about the issues you are having with dh. I just don't get why men lie. Most I have ever encountered in one way or another lies, I just don't get it. Its like they are scared of us or something. I wish I could help you on this one. I have caught my husband in a few lies, and sometimes the lies are about things so petty. What pisses me off is that i have always been honest with him. I am on cd 26 now, just awaiting af.
