How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

I'm ok. It's been almost a month since I stopped bleeding/spotting and I'm anxiously waiting for AF to get here. Me and DH agreed to wait for 2 AFs before TTCing but I think after AF is done this month we're not gonna try or prevent...

I have to call the dr. next week for my blood results to see if I have any issues that are causing my miscarriages.

Emotionally, I have my days where I feel better and days where I'm terrified but overall i've been feeling better everyday.

How is everyone else doing?

I'm doing pretty well. This is our first month TTC since the m/c. AF is due Thursday so we'll see. I'm sure the result this month will have a big effect on my mood.

I find myself thinking a lot how I'd be half way through my pregnancy. That is rough sometimes.

I don't get on here much but wanted to come on today to get some support so I was glad to see your post.

I am feeling down today. My D&C was March 29. After a scare with HCG going back up about a month afterwards we found out it was left over tissue. They started going back down on their own so I seemed to be passing it naturally.

They are still not at 0 . Last week they were 345 (originally about 18,000). I have been bleeding on and off this whole time with it being constant spotting/bleeding the past 3 weeks.

I am so over this already. It has been 3 months since this all started. I need closure already. I need to move on. I thought we would be trying again by now.

I saw 3 pregnant ladies at lunch today and it just brought me down.

Thanks for letting me have a pity party here. I needed it right now.

Hope everyone else is doing good

Re: How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

hey there.
i am doing better i guess.
was diagnosed with two issues that could have played roles in the two chemical m/cs i had - blood clotting issue (PAI-1 4G/5G Polymorphism) and elevated NK cells. i also have PCOS and from what dr. b said the two issues and PCOS all go hand in hand.. yay.......

anyway i havent Oed or gotten AF since the m/c bleed, today is 4 weeks exactly, CD28. i go to dr. b on saturday for a "snapshot" as he calls it, to see whats up and determine when i can start my next cycle. i wouldnt be surprised if i have to do provera first. i would be really surprised if i didnt.

so the wait is almost over for me. im nervous to start next cycle cause it means A LOT of drugs.. this past cycle i was already on femara, follistim, metformin, dexamethasone, vitamin E, prenatals, ovidrel, and crinone... assuming i use a similar path to ovulation induction, i will also likely be adding IVIg intralipids, prednisone, and lovenox to the mix . knowing that there are so many drugs involved makes me enjoy the wait a little more - although i CANNNOT wait to be back in the game either...

i also added acupuncture to my routine and have changed my eating habits. i added herbs as well, as prescribed by my acupuncturist.

overall im really hopeful that i can get pregnant again soon, i am just totally nervous about it sticking. but i really trust dr. b and i that the next time i get a BFP, i end up with a happy, healthy LO out of it.

So...
I was doing A LOT better for a good while.

This cycle I could have SWORN i was pregnant. seriously. No other cycle was like this one and my boobs hurt JUST like they did when I was pregnant. I had it calculated that I'd be due in March.

BUT then AF came... and came EARLY and STRONG!! And along with it my mood plummeted. I was SO devastated. I felt a loss that reminded me of the mc all over again. All day I fought back tears while at work and home. it was a serious major set back. It made me feel depressed, angry, bitter, hopeless, robbed and sad.

Today I still feel terrible but not as bad as yesterday. I'm just going to pick myself up and move on... because what else can you do? DH has been GREAT though. He knows I'm really upset these passed 2 days and just tells me that "it will happen for us" and all that stuff. This whole process brought us closer together.

I knew this week would be bad though... I have this wedding to go to sat and I was supposed to be 7 months pregnant for it. So I envisioned myself being very pregnant (back when I was) at the wedding. And now I'm not going to be. It's hard to deal with because it was one of those marker's that i had along the pregnancy route. i should almost have a cooked bun... and I have a dead one. it's heartbreaking.

So I'm really hoping for each day to get a little better. I was FINALLY starting to turn back into the positive person I am normally. and this is just bringing back this negativity that just isn't me... but I can't help it. hopefully next week I'll be singing a more positive and upbeat tune.

I am just finishing my 2nd AF since the Miscarriage. I developed a blood red spot rash all over my arms and legs so I am waiting to hear if my blood work is okay. If it is, I am starting again this month. I am terrified to try again. We got pregnant the very first time last time and then lost it so quick...I hoep this time it will stick

Re: How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

for all of you ladies and I keep you all in my prayers everynight. St. Gerard will bring us healthy babies

Now if only AF would get her a$$ here already!!

Re: How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

Lots of coming from me too ladies!

Its not fair that anyone has to go through this.

Just wanted you all to know I was thinking about you!

Re: How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

Im feeling terrible again. Its 6 month since what happened and its tough. I was doing better for a while but for the most part im down. AF is due any day now and Im even depressed about that because I know she will come...

Its getting hot outside and doesnt help that I have this baby weight on STILL ...im depressed over it. Im depressed over everything.

Thanks ladies..

I haven't been on here in a long time, working more which is good to help pay my hospital bills

Re: How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

My MC was back in September. I'm trying to lose some weight before getting pg again - just rejoined WW last week. Already down 6.4lbs. I swear I gained the baby weight without even being pg. Maybe it's mental? :) My DD will be 3 in a few weeks and I would love to have another baby before she turns 4. DH just got a new job last month - so I feel like we can start trying soon. He had lost his job the same week we found out about the MC - which is one of the reasons we hadn't tried TTC again yet.

Anyway - good luck to all of the ladies on here.

Re: How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

I'm doing alright, I guess. My testing is still about half complete only but that's by choice at the moment. TTC is currently off the table until DH finds a new full-time job which I think is straining us both mentally at the moment. I've been burying myself in work in the meantime, but that's normal for me.

I check in from time to time to see how everyone is doing and I get excited for each and every new pregger on the TTC board, especially the 09-ers who I know.

Re: How is everyone doing? It's been a little while since we all updated....

so after my m/c AF on 5/25 i didn't O or get AF.
i saw dr. b on CD38 or so and he said i could get started again, i just needed a a hysteroscopy first. got that and it was all clear, but my LH was high on my bloodwork. so i did ganirelix for a few days and then started follistim. i went back to dr. b yesterday and i had one nice 23mm follie so i triggered last night. i did intralipids today. i also started lovenox.

soooo by monday i will be in the 2WW!!
