TTC after Methotrexate shot

[chig]

I didn't have any symptoms until I was 4 to 5 weeks along. I had sore boobs and always felt hungry. I hope this is it for you Gweny! I have my fingers crossed. Also, I am definitely taking your advice to try to do things to keep myself busy. I am starting a new job soon so I have plenty to think about.
Presh, I am also in the waiting game right now...but like Gweny said 4 weeks will be over before you know it!

Yay, Gweny have everything crossed for you poppet... if your anything like me, you will cave in and take a test (I must have taken 10 before I got my BFP heh heh...)!

Four weeks Presh, that will fly by... I would prefer to wait one more cycle too but hubbys work schedule just makes things difficult so i think me might give it a red hot go as soon as I ovulate again. Doc said to go for it as apparently I am all good to go and hubby is back on Monday for 4 weeks then off again for a month. And I couldnt wait that long me thinks.
Good luck and babydust to you all xxx

Hi Gweny, weirdly enough it was only the months that I was pregnant that I got no symptoms the whole time we have been TTC. Good luck I hope this is it for you xxx

Hi, its not going too bad although the morning sickness seems to be getting worse instead of better. So far I have had two scans, one at 6 weeks to check for ectopic and then I had a private scan at 9 weeks because I couldnt wait for my 12 week scan, I saw a heartbeat at that one so it helped reassure me a little. My actual 12 week scan is 2 week today when Ill actually be 13wk 2days, I so cant wait I would like to say Ill relax completely after it but I dont honestly think I will, haha!!

Bells- I am so happy that al your u/s sessions went well. I am sure you were so relieved when you heard the heartbeat! It is such a great feeling! I also have heard that having morning sickness is a good sign that the baby is doing great! I am so excited for you!!!

I got my numbers back this week and they are down to 176 from 1085!!! The doctor thinks that my numbers will be down to 0 by next week since they have been dropping by large amounts every week! I hope she is right. On another note this week has been a little hard for me as Wednesday would have been my due date from my first pregnancy that I had to let go
I am trying to stay positive that everything will work out soon enough...

Hey everyone! It's been a while. Sending lots of baby dust everyone's way xxx

 

[Gwenylovey]

Well ladies...it begins again. I got my BFP this morning at 10 DPO!! I was having sore bbs and no other symptoms, but just had a feeling. This is my earliest BFP - both my ectopic and chemical came later, so I"m hoping that's good news! I called DH on his way to work and we are both excited but not letting us get ahead of ourselves. Kind of sucks that we have to feel this way Now on to staying positive!!

Congrats Gwen!!! Everything crossed for you!!!! xoxo

 

[PreshFest]

Yay Gwen!!! Congrats!

Afm, I Oved over the weekend, so I'm now in a 4ww until I ov again and try to catch that eggy!!

 

[libbyloulou]

That's great news gweny! Xxxx

 

[chig]

Congrats Gwen!!!!! You just have stay positive! The odds are in your favor to have a "normal" pregnancy. Keep us up to date. Did you make an appointment with your doctor?

Presh, good luck on trying after your next ov.

 

[Gwenylovey]

Presh, you're almost back in it! Soooo soon!

I got blood drawn today and will get the results tomorrow. Initially I went to my OB's office. My OB is on maternity leave, so the nurse spoke with another clinician who told me to get my quants taken today and tomorrow! 24 hours? I don't think so... I also requested my progesterone to be taken because the RE I saw said it would be a good idea, but this OB denied my request saying it wasn't necessary. Needless to say, I went to the RE's office and spoke to one of the nurses during her lunch break. They agreed to monitor me until an ultrasound (hopefully!!) shows that the bean is in my uterus, then turn me over to my OB. They took HCG and Progesterone and I'll know the numbers tomorrow. I got a very faint line on a FRER at 10 dpo so I'm expecting a really low HCG and am trying to prevent myself from freaking out when I hear how low it is tomorrow. I'm feeling more relaxed about it all this time around though. I don't know, I've realized that once I'm pg so much of what happens is out of my control. Please keep your fx for me!!

Oh Gweny that is the BEST news! So happy for you hunny.
make sure they keep an eye on your Progesterone for sure as my OB thinks that may be why I miscarried just recently and it doesnt hurt to be too careful. I am so excited for you.
AFM, I should ov this weekend and hubby home so we are going to go for gold. Hopefully will be sharing good BFP news with you soon.
Good luck Presh, the weeks will fly by and youll be back on the train in no time xxx

Thanks Renzal! Hope you and hubby catch that egg this weekend!!!

Hi ladies! So, I just got my first quants back and I'm feeling very hopeful! My HCG at 10 DPO was 29! And my progesterone is at 32. The nurse was stressing how early it is, I think she didn't want me to be concerned about the low number although I was feeling pretty good about it. Maybe it was also because it's too early to really get my hopes up. But either way, I'm happy at least it's off to a good start

 

[JPARR01]

Those are beyond great numbers!!!!! At 10 dpo my hcg was 14 and progesterone was 10! You are lOoking good! Woooohooooooo. xoxo

Hi everyone,

I haven't been on the boards for a while now. But I'm back because I just had another shot of Methotrexate for a PUL (Pregnancy of Unknown Location). I am truly fed up with the whole getting pregnant thing.

Here I was... getting ready to do my first cycle of IVF when I find out that I am pregnant for the second time but my HCG levels were going up super slow.... like the first time I had an ectopic back in July.

Now I'm just AFRAID of getting pregnant on my own... To think that I may have yet another pregnancy that will result in Methotrexate... I can't stand it!

So my plan... is to do my first and hopefully only round of IVF in July as soon as I can.

Here I go again.... the three month wait to TTC again.

Ahhhhhh, sorry for venting. I just had to.
