TTC after D&C (Soon)

[CastawayBride]

Wow castaway! 11 weeks?!? That's crazy! I've been pushing for testing or something for the pain I keep getting on my left side but stopped since they said it was nothing. Pain isn't for nothing!! Glad it's solved for you!
Praying this is all our month! We all deserve BIG fat positives!

11 freaking weeks and all that was causing it was the left over tissue. I swear, I wish the medical profession just listened! Thank heavens for acupuncture :thumb up:

Glad that is over with, now the big test, to see if my cycle will be 26 days like before!

Did your pain go away? I set up a specialist appt for Friday next week, still keeping the appt. I would push for testing too, that is the only thing that I think that kept me calm to see something on paper an not just an educated opinion.

brighteyez, I would change doctors or something because that is ridiculous and causing you unnecessary stress.. my doctor does u/s that day and they walk you through everything that's why I like it there and changed before because the tech didn't tell me anything and left it up to the doctor!! I think its your business and your personal stuff and you are more entitled to understanding and knowing what is going on with Your body before anyone else and definitely not waiting to find out!! but honestly just my opinion and guess I would think they are worried something is retained.. not to try to scare you it may not be but when the tech gets silent and doesn't tell you anything and wants you to talk to the dr first, it's usually not good I hope that's not your case and they are just verifying pregnancy maybe before get your hopes up, but those same test I had several issues with where they are so sensitive!! I am so sorry you are going through this.. the whole process sucks!! here's to a very fast and easy healing process and recovery!!

Castaway- so did you have bleeding the entire last 11 weeks?

Castaway- so did you have bleeding the entire last 11 weeks?

Nope...nothing. It would start then stop...but I had about 6 weeks of nothing but different kinds of CM. The doctor was like now we know what happened...my body was struggling to cycle but was confused as that itty bitty piece was in my uterus.

I have heard this saying and find it to be so true, "Our bodies are a wonderland, but for some, they are a haunted house." So true!

cast, so glad your cycle has ended and you got AF. fxd for a 26day cycle and mormal o. are you going to track this cycle?

bright, so sorry you in limbo. doctors can be so nasty. its just cruel to make someone wait a whole weeknd for scan results.

mj, same as you just waiting to O. But with the estrogen pills my monitor will give me a high immediately so im just gonna start with a monitor stick tomorrow amd then opk till a decent line and then I will test again with a monitor stick.

thinking about the rest of you girls

afm, liking this estrogen. for the first time ever I have fertile mucus early in my cycle. its started already

Glad to hear estrogen is helping you!

I don't really track, I use the CBFM. Going to do that just to see if I am getting any highs/peaks...this last time I became pregnant was my first cycle after being pregnant with my son and had no highs, yet got pregnant having BD with hubby every other high. So I just want to be able to tell the Specialist if I hit highs, I see him on CD8 which is usually when I start O'ing.

Raechay - I figured out how to attach charting. LOL took me a minute. But there it is below. Getting anxious because tomorrow I can call doctors office for results!

when did you start charting and opking.. the chart is a little confusing and it doesn't look like o has been detected yet keep charting just remember same time everyday after 4 or more hours of sleep and if I was to say an o day it wouldn't be where the positive opks are it would be cd24 or cd25 but ff will auto detect it when it sees 3 high temps the problem is there isn't enough data to go by only the past few days maybe if you fix the open circle on yesterdays it will detect o.. worth a try but you may have to removed those pos opks but note them so don't forget where they go

Yayyy Tella - I rarely get that ewcm stuff so I would be jumping off the walls like you if that was the case for me. FX we O soon.

 

[RaeChay]

Bright- I don't bbt myself so I don't know "the rules" about when to start temping in a cycle, etc- but it looks like a good sign that your temp is up. Are you testing daily to see if there's a progression in test line darkness? Hang in there.

 

[Tella]

Cast, that is the easiest way to do it. OPKs work me up so much, i hate them. always wondering if i held my pee for long enough or to much water etc. The cbfm is so much easier. Every other day BD is the best approach. And with a CD8 O you dont have a long BD marathon like i had sometimes on CD21 Os as DH normally gets fed up by line CD16 and then we miss everything. Fxd for some highs soon and a peak to bring on that BFP!!!!

MJ, i never used to get it before O only watery CM but since MC i have been noticing it but very very little of it but this cycle i can see it on the toilet paper so FX soon i will have lots and lots of it

I will start the CBFM tomorrow and then see how my estrogen line is looking in comparison to normally when it is very dark still till day before O.

bright, GL with the temping. Take your first cycle as a learning curve and dont stress to much about it. Fxd you dont have a next cycle but if you do then you know atleast what your temps are doing and you will be able to indicate O without much trouble.

Waiting anxiously for news from your FS!!!

Rae, how you keeping girl? Whats happening with your cycle and are you tracking at all or just taking a breather?

Here is to hoping your EWCM works for you! :thumb up:

My doctor told me just to do the CBFM as he said temping can be off, I don't really know what he meant but he said something about if you are active at night (rolling around a lot) getting up with children or even to use the bathroom or can't sleep it will affect the temp and then they are not reliable anyway so I just stayed away from that after he told me that. Plus, I could see myself obsessing over it! lol I just get up turn the monitor on and see where we go from there...I am wondering what the specialist will think when I tell him I am using the monitor, he will probably say I am nuts! It is my security blanket with this whole thing...it just tells me I am working in the right order I guess.

 

[GingerPanda]

Brighteyez, can't wait to hear about your results!

Tella, yay EWCM!

I hope the CBFM works,wonders for everyone who's trying it. I'm afraid to because my hormones are so wack.

But FF says I'm 3DPO today, and OF says I'm 4dpo, so maybe the Clomid worked this time! I need to call my doc's,office and push my progesterone blood draw back a couple of days.

It worked wonders for me the past two times, I got pregnant first month trying wit the help of it. I do think you need to have a predictable cycle to begin with or it won't give you the proper notice though...

I hope you have good luck GingerPanda...hoping Clomid helped you O!

 

[GingerPanda]

Thanks!

Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. Many things can be said about my cycles. None of it is "good" or "predictable". If it had to be described, "WTF, FML" is the first thing that comes to mind.

 

[Tella]

Yeah temping isnt for me either, just cant do it relaxed. Always get worked up about it.

CBFM works even if you dont have predicable cycles. My cycles has been all over the show and it managed to pick up my peak every month. ONly thing it doesnt work with is PCOS due to the false LH surges you get.

Panda, i think you also 3dpo as the temp shift before the o date of FF is very minimal so either it was a late night O or early morning. But i would go with 3dpo then you know atleast you not testing to early.

Did you have any monitoring with the Clomid this cycle? Follicle check?

 

[GingerPanda]

Yeah, I have PCOS, and unmedicated get several surges a month but never ovulate.

No follie checks, just a progesterone blood draw tomorrow. I called the,doc to ask if they wanted to push it back a couple of days because I was only 3dpo not 7, but they said no. So I don't know,what my numbers will be. I'm still scared to get my hopes up that I actually ovulated. This is my 4th Clomid cycle since D&C 6 months ago, and none of it has made me O. So FX'd!

Thanks for the love, y'all!

 

[brighteyez73]

Thank you ladies for all the wonderful kind and encouraging words. I have some results today, I called the doctor and she said my BHCG level was great. It was just 8 on Friday and it is probably 0 today. I took a test today and it still said positive, so I don't know what to thing. She said the sono showed little old blood inside the uterus and she wanted to repeat the sono after my next true peroid. I guess with all that I am not pregnant this time.

 

[GingerPanda]

But it means you're on the right track! It'll happen!

So she saw some old blood but it wasn't retained product right? Hoping AF comes soon for you so you can be right on track to TTC again
