Just that really. Have a beautiful DD from IVF having tried for years to get pg naturally, and had various early and late losses before we got our sticky bean. We really hoped that we would be one of the lucky couples who somehow managed to get pg naturally after having had an ivf baby, like several other couples we know. And it seemed like our dream was going to come true when we got a BFP a few months back. But I've now had 3 chem pgs in 5 months and not a glimmer of a sticky bean and I've had it. I'm fed up and upset and just want to throw things. And yes, I know there are lots of people out there who are still on their journey to have one baby so I know we're very lucky, but seriously - AIBU to be fed up at yet another failure of my crappy body?

No. Absolutely not. Be as fed up, grumpy and miserable as you like. An then when you have done that pick yourself up, dust yourself off, give your beautiful child a cuddle and keep going.

There is no other option - you have to keep moving forward - but you're allowed to take some time and grieve for what you have lost.

YaNBU to feel the way you do.

YANBU. Sorry for what you are going through, it is crap.

Perhaps there's some treatment to help it stick. I knew somebody who used to have chemical pregnancies and she went for blood tests and was then given treatment (can't remember what it was though).

We had a barrage of tests only thing that eventually made t work was mass doses of vit B; steroids; blood thinking injections; progesterone injections and low dose aspirin every day for the first three months.

Finally gave us out beautiful little girl x

Hope you get a solution and things work out x

Yanbu, and I'm really sorry.

I had 4 mc's before I had DS. I went a bit crazy after the fourth and went into research over drive on the internet. I found a lot of interesting papers and articles about lack of vitamins and things causing miscarriages. I took a whole array of vitamins including 5mg folic acid and high dose vitamind D for three months before trying again and I conceived DS and held on to him. I was told to take 75mg aspirin throughout pregnancy too.

I hope things work out well for you. Mc's are just shit really.

YANBU - I fully understand how pissed off you must be feeling. My pregnancy has just ended only 4 days after my BFP and I too am raging about it. Fingers crossed for us both for next time

DMCWelshCakes · 20/01/2013 22:09

YADNBU. I am sorry for your losses.

YANBU I'm struggling to cope after a CP just before Christmas, after nearly 2 years trying for a second child. I know I'm really lucky to have my beautiful DD, but I want a brother or sister for her and each month that goes by is almost like a loss, no matter how hard I try not to get my hopes up.

A friend has recommended chinese herbal medicine, as she feels it helped her get her two DCs after recurrent MCs before and between her successful pregnancies. So, I will be making an appointment with this herbalist and going back on the healthier diet again.

Good luck to all of us.

Are you with the fertility dept at your hospital ? Have they monitored your current cycles post baby?

Alphabetsy · 20/01/2013 22:57

YANBU sorry for what you are going through. 3 years after having my dc1 I had 3 chem pregnancies in space of 7 months and was convinced it would never happen again. Month 8 I conceived dc2 which was a trouble free pregnancy. Lots of luck.
