Excellent news CJSG, hope this is your cycle to get your sticky one.

 

[AS1]

Thanks girls Afraid to get too excited but then I know you'll understand that!!!

to all still waiting on their xx

 

[Fairybabe]

Hi ladies
Glad to see some new BFPs around here! Excellent.

Can i ask, after a m/c how do you count where you are in your cycle? I've no idea. It's 16 days since mine started. So do i count this as day 16 of a cycle? Also, how soon after testing negative again on a preg test (i did so this weekend) have you ladies found you ovulated again? No idea what to expect! We are kind of NTNP but i'd like to have some idea!

Thanks

Fairybabe xx

Hi fairy, the hospital did blood tests until I was hcg of 15, then about 2 weeks after that I ovulated. So from beginning MC to next AF was nearly 6 weeks. People are different though and it depends how far along you were, to how quick you reach hcg un pregnant levels.

 

[CJSG1977]

I had a negative hpt on the 19th and then I started m/c on the 21st. I am ov in the next day or two as I have had a +opk today. Lucy1973 is right though it depends how far along you were, and some peoples hcg can drop a lot slower / faster than others. I m/c at about 5 weeks so my levels were low anyway. My niece m/c the same time as me and was also 5 weeks and she still had a hcg of over 200 nearly a week later. Thats why I made sure I got the OPK's and lots of them so I could test over a long period of time. They dont cost alot so its worth it.

Congratulations AS1!!!!!

CJ, good luck for fertilization!!!!

Lucy, FF could be wrong, you might have OV the 24th!!!! Hoping for that soon!

for all the BnB ladies!!!!

 

[Lucy1973]

Hi Dietrad, yes you might be right.....first it said the 23rd, then the 25th. Even if it was 25th, we bed 2 days before so I guess there is a chance. My PMT symptoms are wearing off already...good sign, but trying not to read into it! Glad you still ok!

i'm on day 11 after mc and i think af is here as i stopped bleeding 4 days ago but started again today with cramps ect but i have a really faint line on preg test and a posative on an ovulation test, Dont know whats happening with my cycle

Sounds like you still have some retained product reversal. Maybe you could go in for a blood test and have your HCG checked? My doctor had me do follow up blood tests to make sure everything had passed.

I just got back from the OBGYN. She checked out "the lady business" and said the ovary felt fine. Not only did she give me Clomid, but also gave me Glucophage. She said that they give that to ladies with PCOS and thought she'd been giving it to me for months (she must have forgot! LOL ). She's never told me I have PCOS though. Sure, I did have cysts/ovary removal, but I ovulate regularly and have regular periods. I thought people with PCOS didn't.

Now I'm confused. She said the Glucophage helps the ovary to behave itself and that the clomid helps to "ovulate better" and increase progesterone They're going to take a progesterone level on day 21 of my cycle, but I usually ovulate around day 19, so I may call the office later and ask if they want me to come in a few days later, although we're leaving the state for vacation on the 25th. Mixed feelings about all this today. Lady next to me in the waiting room had ultrasound pictures. bah!

oh i hope not but, I have to wait till the 9th of sep to see if my test goes completely negative if not i have to go to epu to get it checked out

 

[svetayasofiya]

Well at least they are doing a follow up but why so late? Hopefully it's our period and you can get back on track that much sooner.

thanks i'm not sure why its so long thats just the date i was given and as its my first mc i'm not sure if thats a normal lengh of time to have to wait

Normally they say to leave it 2 complete weeks before testing to make sure all the hormone is out of your system. But you will be over that I'm assuming? At least they are doing a follow up. My gp did a big fat zero for me, and I hadnt even m/c at that point. So I knew the inevitable was coming...but couldnt stop it. Thats why I was determined to use the progesterone cream to try and make sure I give myself better odds. I'm just trying to figure out how likely it is that I will conceive this time as I only just m/c. People are telling I will be extremely fertile. FX'd for that!

I am forcing my gp to do bloods on cd21 myself because I pointed out that I felt they were neglegent last time and he agreed. And the day I get a bfp on a stick he will refer me to the hospital that day. I'm taking no chances!! I have to wait 6 months for a specialist and I could miscarry again without support, hence why I am trying to mnake all these things happen and using cream etc.

Hope it all goes ok.xx

I got pregnant two weeks after my MC....so believe me it CAN happen!

my doc's and hospital have been great, so sorry your doc isn't so good, really hope you get a bfp and have a sticky bean

I called my FS today and said we'd decided on injectables with IUI! Kevin's having a sperm analysis on Tuesday... and we start on my CD1, so long as I'm not pregnant now... which I really don't think I am. Pertinent countdowns in siggy now! I could be preggo in about a month!!! I'm so nervous and excited!

 

[BizyBee]

Hi girls! I have been away, so wasn't able to keep up with you this weekend. Hope all is well.

I had my blood test today and I am pregnant!
My beta was 145, progesterone was 272. I am thrilled, but cautious. Praying my level goes up on Wednesday.
