ttc after a d&c

[geegirl]

geegirl ~ Don't despair. It is a good sign that you both already have children! As for the Dr, I would certainly pester them until they caved and sent you over to the FS! It amazes me how many clinics have no sense of urgency...you would think after a woman experiences a loss they would be more sympathetic! Fx you get your answers! And heaps of your way!

just hearing positive feedback fills me with hope, nice to know there is sympathetic strangers to talk to, as for the Dr's i'm just another number in the long line of many. i haven't even been referred, my name is in a dr's draw! Another appointment to be made i think x

that's very good to hear! Not as such, a few months ago we went to the doctors, my gp left in the of me getting bloods, only just started to get bloods done to pin point ovulation as my periods are a little erratic. well i haven't even had the results of those because of changing doc. She said we was to be referred to a fertility clinic at the beginning of oct. I asked the surgery and apparently the top doctor who is looking at it has not even given it a glance.... very frustrating. I mean we look good on paper because we are both healthy and have other children.....loosing all hope in my doctors at the mo!

I mustve responded as you wrote this lol. Oh thats terrible that they wont even look at it! I would think there is another dr that would surely be willing to help and take a glance at you and try and find out whats going on. Other than that, have you done anything at home? Like OPK or anything like? Since you have a little bit of a crazy cycle, that may help.

You wrote: "As for names, we have a few.. the only one we are set on is a girls name but that might change too lol

Girls~ Aubrey, Kaitlyn, Avery
Boys~ Jace, Aiden, Camden, (It was set for Brayden but my cuz took it grrr)"

Just wanted to rewind a minute. I love these names! And isn't it something how a family member takes a name you like?

Our last name starts with a W, so playfully I thought we could give him/her a name so its initials would be BMW DH wasn't a fan, but we love our cars and monograming would be SOOO easy!

Another playful thought...what if I conceive on holiday in Aspen? Then I could pick up the trend where you name your baby where you made them! Just hope it'd be a girl! haha

Why am I rambling? I guess I'm excited for you!

hahaha I love it!!! But I think this is the cycle for you. You can still name them Aspen and just say "We went there while I was pregnant with you and had the best time so thats where the name came from!" heheh

I know! I was kind of bugged when she took it but oh well. She DID have a baby before me so cant get too mad I suppose. Everyone was like "You can still name your son Brayden". I said no I cant.. its one thing when its a friend or DISTANT cousin but this is one that we still all the time... well my parents so atleast because they are in Cali. Oh well. I cant wait for your ++++++++++++++++++++++++++.... I cant wait for all of us to be preggers at the same time!!!!

I lost my "thanks" button again! Grr! I'm loving your PMA...I woke up very positive and intend to stay this way! There is this nagging in the far reaches of my mind though...the not so gentle reminder that DH leaves in 3 months. No pressure though b/c IUI can be Plan B. I'll live in the moment and send him off for more FREEZE! Then I can name my baby Popsicle or a cool ice-cream name like Neopolitan.

LOL!!! I just got tears from laughing at this! But youre right, dont fret just yet my pet (Poet and didnt even know it!). Three months is sooooooooo far away and pleanty of time to but again I really think you are going to fall this month!

ohhh yes! haha drove my self slightly mad and poor, i took them for four months on the trot with no positive line, even in the slightest pfft! well i had a problem getting past a dr for a while who just said 'keep trying' dear those words! well got a good doctor she did everything quickly and then left 3 weeks later! :-o never ending it seems..... its not too crazy just comes within 10 days either side of my expected af.... my doc said thats probably just normal for me so i dont know... i will 'keep trying' haha x

geegirl ~ No one on this thread is a stranger to loss; therefore, in the grand scheme of things we are all connected! I like what Mommylov suggests...while you wait for the Dr's to start seeing your regularly, have you tried OPKs or temping?

EDIT: Just saw you answered this to Mommylov.

 

[mommylov]

Geegirl, Oh man thats the worse! You find an amazing dr and then they just up and leave. Almost makes you want to go and find them at thier home, knock on thier door and say "Hi, could you take a look at my ovaries?" Oye, I realllllly hope you are able to find someone that can take a good look at everything for you but I would DEF try and get in as soon as possible with someone.

Amy did you see there is a thread somewhere on here that just has people list baby names...I like to browse through it and dream

 

[mommylov]

Ugh I just want to cry.. I called the drs office and my dr or her assistant werent there and I asked to talk to a triage nurse. She only gave me my progesterone levels which were at 8.53. She told me that they didnt do a quant and that they did another qual but she sounded really confused. I told her about my 5 + and one of those being a CB Digital and she said those are not too sensitive so she was stumped. Im worried this isnt a viable pregnancy

So the nurse didn't know what the results of the qualitative were? That would be VERY important because I want to say your progesterone is borderline (at least that's my understanding). What is up with Dr's?? When will you get to speak with the Dr or the assistant?

Wish I could be there...

EDIT: Let me add that my girlfriend had low progesterone early in her pregnancy and they fixed it with suppositories...so not to worry about that. She just had to be rechecked to watch it go up!

My dr and her assistant were at lunch. This was just a triage nurse that was trying to help out but since she didnt know what was going on with me, she seemed like she couldnt give me difinitive answers. Since my progesterone is low, that scares me that something is not right and since they are having such a hard time telling me if Im pregnant or not, that is another red flag. Granted I know that its early and all (I should be about 4wks 2d) but I would still think it shouldnt be this hard for them to determine anything with my blood. Im really staring to have a bad gutt feeling about this. Maybe this is why they didnt want to call me earlier.

 

[xoxo4angel]

Praying for you and your lo Amy! I really hope in 9 months we get to tell her/him how he gave us a BIG SCARE! Nice of the triage nurse to try to help, but now there are more questions than answers! What time is your appointment tomorrow?

 

[mommylov]

definitley

its at 10:50am.... I really am trying everything in my power to not cry here at my desk at work.
