TTC after recurrent miscarriage - thread 3

@Laney79 I remember a sense of relief learning that my 2nd mc was complete. I got pregnant again straight away after that one without a period in between though that went on to be ectopic. Are you still bleeding?

@Miami81 thank you. It's 50mg I'm taking so will have a look. Taking it easy this weekend would be lovely but I start night shifts tonight. On tonight and tomorrow night then back on days on Monday. I'm not really sure what to do about work. I think I'll tell my boss and a couple of other managers so at least there's someone on each shift who knows as there's so many things I can't do.

Have everything crossed for you @Hopefulforourrainbow xxx

As for me, I had my appt at the EPAU yesterday. Had to have an internal scan but they said I'd had a complete miscarriage, My uterus was empty. Obviously heartbreaking but I knew that really. I'm grateful that this time my body dealt with it itself and I didn't have the constant problems and months of bleeding I did earlier in the year.

My nurse has been amazing and has recognised I need help and has arranged for me to have some blood clotting tests done next week and I have a consultant appt end of November. Sounds stupid but I feel so much better knowing I'm getting help, and have a plan. Even if the tests don't show anything at least I'll be able to rule out those as issues that are causing me to lose my babies. I hate to say this but hoping I get a negative test soon and my cycles kick back In so we can start trying again. At 39 time feels very pressing xx

Good morning ladies. Darker line today and 1-2 weeks on cb digital. No idea when I ovulated this month as hadn't been tracking when on holiday. Have taken aspirin, cyclogest, folic acid and b6 this morning. Should I keep taking b6 @labmum? I'm so scared this is going to go wrong again 😭

Ah that explains a lot! I wondered who the toothpaste person was that was posting the other day!

@MissPMA I don’t think you can gauge anything with sickness and symptoms really. I’ve only had any real sickness as soon as I’ve woken up so far and sore boobs sporadically. Haven’t had any sickness today, just a little bit of nausea this morning but not my usual retching and borking. Then again I’m only 5+4 today so could well have all of this delight to come at a later stage. I wasn’t too bad with DD though so maybe I just get off with it lightly in regards to sickness!

@MissPMA it’s @nonnatushouse here but I’ve name changed back so that everyone remembers who I am!

My doctor is going to refer me for an early scan at the EPU. I actually don’t mind waiting until 10 weeks for one (as long as there’s no bleeding in between times) however I’ve pretty much decided in my head that I will have a bleed next week sometime (between week 6-7) because both times a pregnancy has gotten that far, I’ve bled and everything has turned out to be ok at that point regardless of whether it culminated in my having a later M/C or a live birth.

I’m a lot calmer this time round which intuitively I’m thinking is a good thing as last time I was sooooo uneasy and overwhelmingly anxious from day dot.

Hi I’m new to thus thread. Started my first cycle on predisonole, came off it today as I got a negative test. Oh well another long 4 week wait ahead.

No. Consultant just suggested trying it next time when I saw him last week. I've never had progesterone checked.

Thank you. I'm trying not to get my hopes up. Have taken aspirin this morning and contacted GP for progesterone just in case. Haven't had any symptoms apart from sore boobs, boobs are huge and increased sense of smell.

Eek @hopefull, I’m sending you tentative congratulations! Keep us posted with your tests but it sounds promising! How are you feeling?
Also congrats on your bfp @nonnatushouse, how are you doing? Will you get an early scan through EPU? I can empathise with feeling scared, I feel like I’m living in a cloud of anxiety at the moment, approaching 9 weeks and whilst feeling decidely ropey still the sickness has eased, so I’m VERY nervous about my scan next week.

@Hopefulforourrainbow I had that with my second pregnancy in August-one step Internet cheapie was the squintiest squinter (even inverted the colours) so did another the next day with a very similar result. Bought a frer for the next morning and it was very clear positive. My Internet cheapies are meant to be 10mlu sensitive. X

Tested again this morning because I'm a poas addict! I think there's a very faint line. It's an internet cheapie which I've always bought and have been reliable for me in the past. I've ordered frer & cb digital on Amazon. I'll test again tomorrow. Would have preferred to wait but going on to nights tomorrow and hubby away for a week for work on Friday

Thank you @moonpeace

Bfn today. Gutted though I know I'm not out yet. Have a feeling I am though. Wishing I hadn't taken the b6 now. Have no idea if I ovulated when I usually do. Had hoped there might have even been a faint line. A few of my friends are due this week and I should have been too so feeling a bit down in the dumps. One has just told me her girls name is same as my favourite so now hoping she has a boy! Though at this rate we won't be needing it 😭 sorry for the moan. Just feeling a bit down today.
Hope you're all doing well

Can't decide if I should test today or not. Cycle is 33-35 days and I'm on cd34 today. Will prob give in and test knowing me!

Sounds promising Hopeful - when are you going to test?

Sorry you're both having such a crap time. I'm struggling to keep up with all the new names. Has anyone changed their name?
Symptom spotting for me. AF due in 2 days. Boobs sore, much bigger and nipples are sensitive. Hope it's a good sign!

So sorry you’re both having such a shit time of it @Laney and @bobbins.

It really is so bloody unfair

Laney79 I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope you can start to recover a bit though I know it may be a bumpy road.

I'm beginning to think I'm cursed. My year so far has included:
-3 miscarriages
-sick MIL
-DH attacked by a racist
-from today: having to leave home for at least a week because it was flooded, which in turn broke our boiler
Seriously, WTF?

Thanks @moonpeace I think I passed my little one last night. Tmi but it was different to all the clots and tissue. Much more solid. Came as a shock as had no pain. Broke my heart. Xx
