Hi, I am new to this forum but just thought I would make contact with you after reading your post. I am so very sorry for your losses. I also had a miscarriage last october and know first hand the grieving process. My thoughts are with you. I am 39 years old, I am blessed with 2 beautiful IVF babies. I just wanted to give you some hope and positive motivation. I struggled to have the two that I have. I started TTC at age 30 had my first child age 34. I have reduced ovarian reserve but we didn't know that at the time doctors only diagnosed that since I did the AMH test recently. The IVF process wasn't easy back then for me, I recently went back for a new cycle but it got cancelled 1 week into it due to ovaries not responding to meds. I am running out of eggs basically! My misscarriage was concieved naturally and was the first time I had ever fallen pregnant with out assistance! A miracle but sadly it wasnt to be. But I will not give up! The doctors basically told me there was nothing they could do to fix the problem that it couldn't be reversed or fixed! I have been seeing a Traditional Chinese Doctor and they disagree, and in one month my FSH has droppped considerably and now within normal range. It has been an expensive and a solid commitment but one that no matter what the outcome I will not regret. I am taking numerous herbal medicines in the form of capsules and drinking teas that are grounded and mixed at the clinic. They are trying to restore and improve the functions of my kidney and liver aswell as nourishing the ovaries and fertility cycle. I am also getting accupunture but only about once a week. I really believe that the herbs are helping my hormones do there job better. My doctor agrees that the last blood test on day three show a significant improval. I am having nother test one month since the last tomorrow. I am sticking with it for one more month and if it doesnt work this month than atleast I believe my body is well prepared for another round of IVF. This particular TCM doctor helps alot of women who have had multiple miscarriages. Go on line and google accupuncture and recurrent miscarriage. It is certainly something I would look into if you dont want to go down the path of IVF or assisted fertility etc. Don't give up hope the good thing is you know you CAN get pregnant. So maybe you just need some help to strengthen your chances of success through natural herbs and accupunture. A good TCM doctor can work along side with you once you fall pregnant again to lessen your chances of another miscarriage. My sister and a good friend both suffered multiple miscarriages and went on to both have healthy babies. If I were you I wouldnt waste anytime, go and have all the tests done and get your partner tested as well just so you know. KEEP trying and never give up xx.
guess I just want to reach out and see at least, if anything we support each other through this journey. I feel really ready to have a child now. didn't in my 20's. It seems like everyone i meet is pregnant, its funny how that works. Any insight would be really appreciated.
