TTC after miscarriage before AF

[happynewmom1]

I was going to say that's a great line for 12dpo!! Sending you lot and lots of sticky babydust!!

Yay thank you! I really wasn't expecting anything at all since yesterday's test look almost negative lol crazy. Do you know if I can continue taking raspberry leaf and maca? Or if I'm supposed to stop?

 

[Babylove100]

I'm sure I read somewhere you shouldn't take the raspberry leaf tea but don't quote me on that!

I've no idea about the maca, actually, what is maca!?!?x

Maca root.. Definitely Google! I have felt so much better and like myself this month taking it! Supposed to help regulate hormones and heal tissues and such if you've had a mc. It's natural so I figured I'd try it. I got mine on Amazon.. 90 capsules for $8.99 and they are organic.

 

[Babylove100]

Oh lovely, thanks will do some research!x

 

[TinyLynne]

Yes. Stop the tea for sure! Not sure about the maca. Praying that this 3rd one is your take home baby! Those are some good looking lines! Get to your Dr for some bloods! Excited to watch your journey!

Tiny Lynne, I really want to try the prometrium but my Dr. says that he does not believe in it. It think I might have to see another Dr. I see high risk after 12 weeks but I didn't make it that long with the last two pregnancies. But, I think it would at least lower my stress level and I need that lol. I'll let you know how the post miscarriage supplement works out I am ordering it today as the miscarriage is now complete. I have been seeing ads for preseed online a lot. Do you like it we are thinking about trying it? Good luck I hope this was your lucky month after oing...i hate that wait from o date to af due date. I am already counting days.

Congratulations happy new mom!! Those lines look great. I pray that this is your sticky bean. I just ordered maca and it says to discontinue use during pregnancy and the raspberry tea I have says it is safe for most pregnant women but not women who have had recurrent miscarriages. I hope that helps....and TinyLynne I am saving that video for when I finally get a new BFP!

 

[TinyLynne]

Mssk, my OB isn't convinced that prometrium works to prevent mc, but he knows it won't hurt and that it will ease my mind. He is so much better than my last OB, he lets me be in control (as much as I can be) while also giving me guidance and his experiences. If you don't feel comfortable with your OB, I highly suggest finding a new one, I wish I hadn't waited so long. And yes, we do like the Preseed. You don't need very much at all, I suggest only going to the 1 mark, if not less, then increase if you need to. And use it as directed with the applicators, and leave it in for 15 mins before BDing.

I'll have to look into maca if this month isn't meant to be for us, thanks for the suggestion happy!

Thanks! After yesterday's test and all the cramps, I really wasn't expecting that this morning. Just praying this one sticks! Thank you so much!

Yeah.. I guess I don't have a problem getting pregnant. I'm a little afraid I have a hyper fertility issue after reading which basically my body isn't picky with egg it fertilizes and sometimes chooses a bad one over a good one. I could be wrong though... Likely shouldn't self diagnose I bought some more tests and hope to see a nice, dark line tomorrow!

Thank you ladies for all the encouragement and support. I'd be a mess without friends such as yourselves. I genuinely hope for bfps for all of you soon

 

[mimdan]

Nooo definitely do not self diagnose, especially on Google ! Too much negativity, it will have you worrying about all sorts of unnecessary things...not good for mama or baby

Keep us updated with how it all progresses how's OH ?

 

[happynewmom1]

He is good! I think he wants to be excited but a little afraid to be yet. He just wanted avoid the pain of another loss by when he sees the pregnancy progress, he will relax some.

Ok so today's test is on the bottom. Woke up at 4:30 and couldn't sleep so naturally tested again. Went to bed and it looked exactly like yesterday's so I was feeling a tad discouraged but decided maybe the hcg just needs more time to rise and I'll test again in a couple days. Which I'll still do but was so happy to see it dry darker anyway!

 

[TinyLynne]

Happy - that is DEFINITLY darker!!! That is a good change being that it is less than 24 hours after the first! That is very encouraging to me! I hope it makes you feel better too!!! Are you getting betas done today?

It makes me feel loads better!!! We are going somewhere tomorrow to confirm pregnancy and hopefully they will do bloods as well!!! We moved states in March and never got a doctor as I kept losing the babies but we are going to get one right away this time. Insurance is complicated for us but figuring it out quickly so we can see someone! Thanks for so much encouragement! I sincerely hope to see you get your bfp soon too! So how long until testing day for you now??

 

[TinyLynne]

Well, I start at 9DPO, so that will be in 6 days!

 

[happynewmom1]

I hope it goes quickly for you! The wait is so long. Do you have anything you do to distract or makes the time go faster?

 

[TinyLynne]

To be honest, I used to need stuff to distract me during the TWW, it was agonizing, but now I feel like the 3weeks after AF before I ovulate are more agonizing! At least in the TWW I have hope that in this moment I can have a little life inside me!

I sometimes will read a book (or many) during the TWW. But we are leaving for vacation on Thursday, so there will be a lot of distractions trying to get packed and get things done around the house and the yard before we leave, so I really don't think this TWW is going to be very agonizing for me. Plus I'm on progesterone now, and it helps me feel in control and that everything is ok.

How do you generally distract yourself?

Ohhh books are a great idea! At least if you get into them enough so as to be totally in the story for awhile and away from reality a vacation sounds amazing too! How long do you get to be away for?

I don't have anything in particular. The kids do tend to keep me busy. We take a lot of walks to the park and such. And googling symptoms passes time not a great distraction though lol

 

[TinyLynne]

Yes, googling symptoms does 'distract' lol. It's a short vacation, we will leave Thursday night, be back Monday afternoon. We only have so many vacation days at work, so we try to make the most of them.

 

[happynewmom1]

I think I'm pretty happy with today's test. It got darker faster than yesterday and I think is a tad darker after drying. What do you ladies think?
