TTC after loss part 5

@MisssMarion that’s how I feel, and obviously I don’t know if they’ve had difficulties conceiving or not, but it just feels so unfair. I can push away my thoughts on how I’m feeling sometimes, but it then just all comes back to me seeing announcement posts with scan pictures

I've had to unfollow a number of accounts on instagram when they announced they were expecting their second... It was the best thing to do for self preservation. I was getting envious and upset with them that they had it so easy (without knowing anything about their stories of course). Do what's right for you, there's nothing wrong there!

Another pregnancy announcement from someone at work. Anyone else feel like it’s constant. I am regularly muting people on instagram

@Ella31 your uterus is fit for growing a bambino 💓 how was the progesterone? I think mine may be all over with the spotting. I think I have to wait 6 months from last pregnancy which I presume will be my chemical, but if I've not caught by then, I'm going to request mine to be checked.

What a compliment 😂 it definitely can happen ❤️

@Ella31 Trying to hold out until Tuesday. How did you get on today? I thought my cycle was different to last month but I've checked symptoms to last month and pretty much like for like at the moment other than very light pink discharge at 3 and 4dpo and boobs feeling heavier. How you feeling? Xxx

6dpo for me, nothing to report other than boobs feel heavier and cramps last night but that's just normal hormonal changes I think this early on. I feel 'different' but i felt that last month and nothing came of it. Just trying to wait patiently but of course that never works. 😆 Going to distract myself over the weekend with the airshow being in town and hopefully good weather 👌

No news from me. I don’t think I actually did ovulate so not following any DPO. Just going to carry on trying without tracking & then maybe in a few weeks I’ll start testing once a week or something

@Ella31 I hope your repeat test shows good numbers. But I really do think it should be an easy fix- I've been on progesterone suppositories twice a day since testing positive. Ladies have them as part of HRT I believe. So presumably no reason why they couldn't prescribe pre-positive test?
Like you say though you had enough progesterone to support multiple pregnancy a matter of months ago so fingers crossed nothing to worry about at all.
Pleased the scan was positive!
Hope everyone else doing well. Anyone due to test in next couple of days? Xx

It’s really not helpful when they are like that, as if you don’t have enough to cope with without staff not being understanding. Doesn’t take much for people to be a bit kinder & more personable. I hope they are more helpful next week

edit - meant to tag you @Ella31

Thats great that the ultrasound went well. I don’t know much about progesterone, but can they give you some progesterone? With my previous pregnancy I was given the suppositories but not too 7 weeks. I’ve heard of many women having it right from the start.

I’m really sorry you are having a bad day. It’s so hard when you have milestones like that. I feel very positive that you will bring a baby home. But I know me saying that doesn’t really help xx

That sounds really positive! Fingers crossed progesterone is where it needs to be tomorrow at day 7 ❤️

How are you feeling about it? X

@Ella31 how did you get on yesterday with the ultrasound & blood test?

@Gracie1825 @jellyfish2 I’m feeling exactly the same. It’s so conflicting, I’m so so beyond happy to have fallen pregnant again but also completely terrified and finding it impossible not to spend every second of the day feeling anxious about it.

Because my cycle was a little off after my mmc I’m not completely sure when I ovulated and how far along I am which is making me feel so nervous for a scan.

Sending hugs to everyone who’s feeling the same xxx

@Lovedatforme that's a great sign and a lovely bit of reassurance.

@MisssMarion we all understand, pregnancy after loss is so different - it's unfair. Taking each day as it comes is the right thing to do xx

Completely normal, I've yet to feel excited and I'm not sure I will until way down the line. Hoping after my scan I'll relax a little but yeah I think taking it day by day is all you can do. I didn't have any symptoms for a while and now all I have is extreme tiredness, a bit nauseated especially if hungry mixed with heartburn and slightly achy boobs. I felt much worse with the MMC. I have everything crossed that this is your rainbow 🌈.

Thank you all for your kind messages. @jellyfish2 @DonnaWhat @LucyCL @Ella31 @Figtree11 @Onthedouble123 @ThelastRolo20 @Lovedatforme @LozElle @Gracie1825 @Ncl31

Apologies for disappearing, I’m still in shock and feeling all sorts of feelings (not the relief I thought I would just yet though). It hasn’t sunk in yet, but it’s still very early days I guess. I’m taking it one day at the time, with no symptoms which doesn’t help my anxiety. I’ve been checking my line progression to spot a chemical but I think I’m just fuelling my anxiety… Let’s see.

I’ll stick around if that’s ok, I can’t wait to see us all get our 🌈 babies…

Just a little update from me, my consultant scanned me today at 5+2 and could see the sac transabdominally which they couldn't pick up on my last MC so that's a positive! She's bringing me back in again next week.

I've been put on progesterone to help with the pregnancy too so fingers crossed!

Hope everyone is doing okay x
