TTC after Methotrexate shot

[Kiki0522]

Epump! That is great news!! SO happy for you!

Cazi- Don't worry! It's been 2 and a half months? That's good! My doctor told me we didn't have to wait the whole 3. Just a couple cycles or a couple of months. You are close enough to the 3 mark.

chufffed for you epump, those are really strong numbers. I have that mantra too one day at a time. Take things nice and easy and remember to take some slow deep breathes everyday. My very best wishes go to you and your bean

On another note looks like it was not my month This was our first month ttc after MTX but the day after i ovulated i was hit with an awful cold and fever. Im still signed off work ill but go back in a few days. Anyway this morning the got me 5 DAYS EARLY!!!! Boo. As sad as i am im a little relieved as i've constantly been worried about the medication i've been taking and the constant daily fevers i've been having. OK time to dry my eyes and move on. Next month will be my month. Goodluck to all the other chicas out there ttc

You sure its not implantation bleeding!?!?!

Oh such wonderful news!! Epump I'm so happy for you That's how it's done ladies! Let's all follow suit okay?

I should be OVing in the next few days, not sure if which side it'll be on, maybe I'll double up on my tube side! We're still in the very beginning stages of picking a fert clinic for IVF. Waiting on FIL (pediatrician in the state where fert clinics are) to check into the doc to make sure he's reputable. So we're still working on that angle. In the meantime we'll continue to ttc naturally. That's all we can do

Edited because I'm going to do my best to stop worrying thanks everyone!

Traybaby, def. could be implantation bleeding!

Hypno, glad you are progressing on the IVF front. Fingers crossed for a natural this month!

JPARR, what day dpo are????

 

[TrAyBaby]

I hoped it was implantation bleeding too but it's too heavy, I'm having to wear pads

Just focusing on next month now

I think I'm out this month too, I think due to wprk and other commitments we just didn't do enough, so its on to next month.

Although I think next month I ovulate from the right side which is where my ectopic was and even though I was lucky and didn't lose a tube I am worried to try. At the time of having the methotrexate shot I asked the doc if I would have a follow up test to see if my tube was damaged and he said chances are it was already damaged, so now I'm scared to try and get pregnant while ovulating on the right side.

Am I being daft????

Today is 5DPO. It is going to slow!!!!! Check out my chart.

 

[epump]

What day are you going to test???

 

[JPARR01]

I have absolutely no idea what day I should test. The only thing I got going on is creamy CM, cramps, and like a pulling/straining feeling in my right boob. It's weird.

People don't always ovulate on alternating sides. So you may or may not ovulate on the right side. When I had my methotrexate, I was worried about the tube being damaged, but an HSG I had a couple of months ago showed that my tubes were fine. You can have the test done and still TTC that cycle, some people have gotten their BFP immediately following their HSG. Since you're worried about it, I would see if I could have the test done just so you know what you're dealing with. It is scary deciding to TTC again after methotrexate, but worth it!

Bells: Sometimes the tube can be damaged by an ectopic, but sometimes it's just fine. Is there a reason to think that it would not be fine? I had a ruptured appendix that created TONS of inflammation and scare tissue so that's most likely why my tubes are damaged. Sometimes ectopics are just flukes. I'm hoping yours was just random and your tubes are just fine I can only tell which side I'm OVing on when I have a cyst or it pings and pangs. This cycle, I have no idea It is still very scary to ttc after an ectopic. FX'd for you

Thank you LittleBird and Hpyns4life, I think I have just been over analysing, there is no reason to suggest my tube could be damaged it was only what the doc said at the time about it probably was already damaged for this to happen, then I have been trying to guess which side I am ovulating going on where I get twinges around that time but those could have been anything or me trying to convince myself, I think it would be best if I stop panicing and go for it and see what happens, its definately game on next cycle!!

Good luck everyone

Yeah, I tried to think about all the reasons why that 1st miscarriage happened, whether it even was ectopic (they never did an ultrasound) and whether something was wrong with my tubes to begin with. It's hard to know without tests. I was sure that something was wrong with my tubes before my HSG, so imagine my surprise when the dye flowed straight through! It was a relief, for sure! If you had your methotrexate early enough in the pregnancy, the chances are good that it prevented damage to your tube. I just keep trusting that my body knows what it's doing and hopefully everything will happen correctly next time!
