Depo injection experiences

115 replies

Danielle95lab · 02/12/2019 14:28

Hello ladies, just looking for anyone's experiences trying to conceive after the depo injection. I'm currently on my ninth month since my last injection. My periods return six months ago, but no BFP yet.

I seem to be experiencing spotting a fair bit mid-cycle as well. I take ovulation tests, but I don't seem to get a positive. Feeling a bit fed up!

@ForeverHopeful67 my little bean is cooking away perfectly! Dates are spot on and heartbeat was perfect too. Put me at so much ease.

I never took my temp at all cause I just found it stressed me out. But to be fair it took me a few cycles of positive ovulation tests for things to get into swing. But yeah your appointment is so close now so that's going to bring a positive look on things and you can move forward xxx

OP posts:

ForeverHopeful67 · 11/03/2020 14:03

@Danielle95lab awww I can imagine!! I have everything crossed for you and I'm sure it will all go to plan - message me as soon as you can I'll be thinking of you !!

According to my app I'm 9dpo but my temp didn't rise and I feel no different at all so don't think I did actually ovulate! But just focusing on my appointment which is less than two weeks away now!xxxx

@ForeverHopeful67 thanks lovely! I'm absolutely shitting it. I feel awful with nerves 😂😂 I'll let you know how it goes later.

Are you in the two week wait now after your ovulation tests 🙈? xxxx

OP posts:

ForeverHopeful67 · 10/03/2020 23:05

@Danielle95lab hope your scan goes well tomorrow chick xxx

ForeverHopeful67 · 02/03/2020 22:48

@Danielle95lab oh no!! I hope it eases for you soon ☹️!!

I know I was so pleased that i don't have to wait too long! Thanks chick, will get BDing tonight and pray for a change in temp - would be so chuffed to actually ovulate for the first time! But I guess positive OPK and actually ovulating is too much to ask for right 😂?xxx

Danielle95lab · 02/03/2020 19:44

@ForeverHopeful67 omg actually awful😂😂

Yey so excited for you, that's so close!!! Such a positive step forward again, things are looking good. If your test was negative today you will have ovulated today and still have a chance tomorrow too!🥰xxx

OP posts:

ForeverHopeful67 · 02/03/2020 18:20

@Danielle95lab omg no way! The dreaded sickness may have well and truelly hit!! Is it as awful as it sounds?!

Had some good news today! Finally got my app through 😁 Tuesday 24th March - not long at all! And I got a super strong positive yesterday and a negative today, so that's good! When do you think that means I ovulated?xxxx

Danielle95lab · 02/03/2020 10:32

@ForeverHopeful67 thanks lovely! Today I've either got a stomach bug or horrific morning sickness cause I'm dying 😂😂 the joys!

Omg don't stress, I had positives for roughly 4 days on OPK but I know some people have positives up to 5 days. As soon as you get a very strong positive I would stop testing. Just baby dance for that week and you'll be fine xxxx

12 months for a period to appear after the last injection.
2 further years to conceive.
Multiple miscarriages.
Conceived first child.
Further multiple miscarriages.
Conceived 2nd child after 10 years.

Had the injection for 7 years. Severe, completely out of character dips in mood during that time, weight gain.
I blame all of my fertility issues on the injection.

ForeverHopeful67 · 01/03/2020 23:16

@Danielle95lab that all sounds totally normal and like good signs to me 😊 I'm seriously so pleased for you!!!
How crazy is that?! Always when you least expect it look!!

I so hope I follow the same path as you! I'm obviously doubtful because it's taken me so long to get here... only weird thing is I haven't stopped having positive opk's yet! Started Friday morn and still had another one this evening! So I have no idea when or if I've actually ovulated? 🤨 I thought you'd just have the one then that was it! xxx

@ForeverHopeful67 no more spotting. Woke up in the middle of the night with cramps but I think that's pretty normal, they go within 5 mins. I've been okay so far to be honest, the occasional backache, tiredness and sore boobs are about it for me at the moment.

Honestly I didn't have anything before I tested. I was due to go to the doctors for anxiety and she wanted to give me some tablets. Anyway I knew somethings you can't take pregnant or while trying to conceive so I thought I'd take a daft test to be sure and got the shock of my life 😂😂

OMG thing is you say there's still a long way to go but it only took me two/three months of positive opk's and I was pregnant so I think it's going to be such a positive step for you! Im actually praying you get pregnant soon now haha xxxx

ForeverHopeful67 · 01/03/2020 00:08

@Danielle95lab not too much longer to wait til you get to see your little bean for the first time then 🙊 too exciting! How have you been feeling in general? Did you feel any different before you got your bfp?
Did you get anymore spotting in the end today?

Thanks chick, I honestly feel so pleased to finally see a positive tear of some sort 😂 still a long way to go yet but I so hope my bbt reflects it too I will be really chuffed! And with my app too hopefully round the corner that should help move things along for me too!xxx

@ForeverHopeful67 thanks lovely that's put my mind at ease a bit. Roll on my early scan on the 11th March to anxiety is real 😫😫

Honestly this is the start of something amazing chick! That's it now you're well on your way once you get those first positives. Absolutely over the moon for you. OMG that would be amazing! Be so nice to have us both going through the journey together xxxx

OP posts:

ForeverHopeful67 · 29/02/2020 14:07

@Danielle95lab eeeeek exciting time will fly by for you!! awww chick, try not to over think it, if you've had reassurance from professionals and they're not concerned there's no reason for you to be either although I totally get what an anxious time this is for you! I would say out of all my friends that have been pregnant Atleast 80% of them said they had some sort of bleeding during early pregnancy and went on to have beautiful healthy babies!

Thanks chick, means a lot!! It's funny because I've gone from never having a positive OPK before to having positive ones for the last three days!!haha I'm just praying now that my temp shows I have actually ovulated 🤞wouldn't it be ace if I could join you on your pregnancy journey! xxx

@ForeverHopeful67 I'm due 28th October! Unfortunately I had a bit of brown discharge Thursday which has completely shattered my hopes of this being successful. I just have an awful feeling but the early pregnancy unit said it can be common so not to panic unless it gets worse😩!

Omg at long last!! That's exactly what you need. Yeah sometimes when I got positive OPK I didn't always have the EGWD so don't worry, just baby dance as much as you can. Usually as soon as you have the one, you'll have it every month now so it's such a positive step for you. I'm actually really excited for you xxxx

OP posts:

ForeverHopeful67 · 28/02/2020 23:43

@Danielle95lab awww that's so lovely to hear! Thanks babe, I really am so pleased for you!!
They do say when you start to not fixate on it so much that's when it happens and here you are!! When does that make you due then ?

Of course I'll keep you updated! I've actually got my first positive OPK tonight! Which is exciting as I've not had one before!! No ewcm but I've googled and some people don't, but I'm pleased that's a step in the right direction for me! And just over two weeks since my "period" so that fits!xxx

@ForeverHopeful67 aw thank you lovely! I feel like you're the only one who's really understood what I've been going through to get this far. You'd think I'd be overjoyed (which I am) but yeah riddled with anxiety.

But honestly, I thought there was no hope and I slowly started to give up. I literally was about to book New York at Christmas and look for another job then this happened. So yes, when you think it's near enough impossible it will most definitely happen for you.

Please let me know how your appointments go. I've got everything crossed for the next few months for you. Are you still trying to track ovulation?xxx
