I feel a bit of a fraud putting this message in but am curious to see if anybody out there has had the same experience. I have 2 ds aged 3 and 1. I recently started periods - two normal periods with a 34 day cycle in between. Although bf, I used persona as a way of tracking ovulation which showed I had ovulated in between the periods and in my current cycle. We decided to try for another baby, I ovulated around day 14, had what I think was an implantation bleed on day 23, and a (very strong)positive pregnancy test on day 27. I performed another test 4 days after which was negative, and have since done another 4 which have all been negative. I did the extra test as I had a miscarriage in between ds1 and ds2 and heavy bleeding with ds2. I know I am not pregnant now but have yet to have a bleed. I am still bf ds2, and wonder if his increased feeding on holiday has made a mess of my hormones, and maybe even the pregnancy. I have made an appointment to see my doctor on Monday and will see what she says. I dread the thought of a D&C and hope I will have a natural bleed before then.
DH is very adament that we should not risk any more turmoil. Although he was absolutely delighted when we thought we were pregnant, he thinks we should now thank god that we have two healthy sons and not risk further miscarriages, or disabilities. I am 35 so not getting any younger and we also have down syndrome on both sides of the family (uncle and nephew) and other genetic issues like hare lip and severe food allergies).
Anybody got any experience and should we try again?
