Pregnancy after D&C

[Lea89]

Hi everyone,

I am just wondering when any of you lovely ladies got caught pregnant after your D and C? I had mine back in May and I’ve had 1 period so far, I’m due on this Wednesday (10th July) I’m really hoping I don’t but I’m getting all the signs that I will.

I can’t bare to see another negative test and would love to hear some positive ones!

Lots of love to you all xxx

@VenusStarr oh my god i am so sad for you!!! Lots of hugs 🤗 please take care of yourself, it's definitely not your fault!!! 😢 you're completely sure about the dates and ovulation? Such a rollercoaster 😢 I'm so sorry for your loss. So you're going back in 2 weeks? They couldn't see you sooner? X

Thank you @SunStruck, I've not cried today. I had a scan last week when I thought I was 6+3 but only showed yolk sac. The scan on Friday was 8 days later but now had a foetal pole. They said only about 5 weeks. I ovulated early on cd10 so by my dates I should be 7+6 now, 7+2 by lmp.

Dh is hopeful that all will be OK. I don't know why it is a 2 week wait. I had that last time too, so must be their policy. My uterus is tilted and heart shaped but the nurse said they could see the gestational sac clearly, so no hope that my weird shaped uterus was distorting things.

Hope you're OK xx

@VenusStarr go eat to God darling you can't think like that ☹️! If you had your way you would not choose to have these horrid things happen to you! Your in such a horrid place but try to remember your oh is probably trying to reassure you and make you feel better. Not being sexist but it must never be the same for men as those little beans grow inside of us and I feel we have more of that instant maternal instinct. Try to love each other as you need each other now more than ever. I'm not doctor and I know bugger all about shaped uteruses but I believe in miracles. I had 2 eptopics and they said of I tried again (I refused to have my left tube out coz I'm a chicken) it would kill me, I had 2 babies down that left tube! Just try to deal with now and what's going on. Cry, be angry and allow yourself time to grieve hun. We had to out trying to a stop as I'm going for a scan next week to rule out ovarian and uterine cancer. Obviously I'm shitting myself to say the least but if I didn't have such an awful MC in may I may never have known! So let's support each other through this shitty awful time and before we know it well be smiling again ❤️! Also I hope you other ladies are ok. @Lea89 how is your little duo coming along? How are you feeling? I hope we're not making you sad with the amount of hormones you have going on lol!! Xxx

@VenusStar hang on I just re-read.... So just yolk sac and then 8 days later a fetal pole too?! That is curious, it's no wonder your hubby is clinging on? Don't shout at me but may there be the slightest chance? I mean I'm not religious but I pray there is ❤️ xxx

Oh my goodness @Elles1980, I am so sorry to hear you have that worry hanging over you 💜 really hoping they don't find anything sinister. Hope you get some positive news this week. I can't imagine how anxious you must be.

I think if I wasn't so certain on my dates, there could be some hope but by now I think they should see a heartbeat and it should be bigger. Its almost exactly how my last missed miscarriage panned out. First scan they didn't see anything then 2 weeks later they found a 5 week pregnancy but then I miscarried naturally. This limbo period is horrible. I can't allow myself to feel hope but if you want to for me that's OK :)

Keep me posted on how you get on xx

Hey ladies just wondering how your all doing? Been thinking of you all xx

@VenusStarr how are you doing hun? I'm thinking if you xxx

Thank you @SunStruck. I'm just waiting for something to happen, no signs of my body moving things on. I've been signed off by the GP until after the scan next Friday. It's hard because I still feel pregnant, if I hadn't had the early scans I'd be feeling positive that things were going OK. How are you getting on?

How's things for you @Elles1980? Xx

@VenusStarr good to have it signed off! I understand that limbo is horrible 😔 I hope scan day will be here soon and you'll know once and for all.

Thanks for asking about me, I have mild PCOS so this cycle seems to be anovulatory unfortunately... it all takes so bloody long.

Hi ladies, well I'm in kind of all over the place, have bloods on Monday a scan on Tuesday and colposcopy next week so hopefully by the end of the month I'll be fixed 🙏!
@VenusStarr how long till your scan now?
@SunStruck sorry to hear that Hun ☹️.
@Lea89 how are you? I really hope your not afraid to be happy on this post, the positives are what keeps me going so I really hope your well and we hear from you soon Hun! Love to all xx

@Elles1980 no worries, next time and all that 😄 how are you doing? X

Yes don't be afraid to spread some positivity xxx

I'll be thinking of you this week @Elles1980 💜

Sorry to hear that @SunStruck, the hardest part of ttc for me has been the lack of control.

@Lea89 hoping all is good with you x

Well, I think it's over, I'm not going to go into details but had a rough night but think the worst is over. Hopefully all is OK but scan on Friday will confirm. I've also got an appointment with my fertility doctor on Tuesday. I'm hoping that because both miscarriages have been the same - baby not developing past 5 weeks, they'll have some insight into what intervention we might need.

Sending love 💜 xx

@VenusStarr sending you LOTS of love! ❤️ how though, but I guess knowing for sure now means you can move forward and hopefully the fertility Dr can give you some clarity as to what they need to do differently next.

@VenusStarr sending you massive hugs Hun!! That's not nice but it's great your thinking of it like a problem that can now be fixed! Not any less stressful or hurtful but a little positivity goes a long way right!!

So you may or may not have picked up through my messages I'm a bit of a wild mess lol! I thought before I have all these tests and shizz done I'd best make sure I'm not preggers..... I did a test this morning and I can see the faintest line, partner says nope nothing there but I can see it! Lordy knows what'll happen if I am so I may have just complicated my life a little bit more, coz who doesn't love the extra drama right 🤦🏻‍♀️🙄😱??! Anyone live anywhere near Cornwall willing to give a twist a slap (me, I'm the twit)! Will test again in the morning and also am having bloods done tomorrow so will ask if they can check HCG! Can't stop shaking my head at myself 🤦🏻‍♀️😂! Xx

It definitely does @Elles1980 thank you both @SunStruck :)

@Elles1980 that sounds promising, feel free to post a picture so we can take a look if you're uncertain, hope the result is clearer today 🤞 xx

@VenusStarr I did my cbfm this morning and it said not pregnant, so possibly my old eyes playing tricks on me?! Probably not the best time to be conceiving at the moment 😫! This is all a bit stressful lol!! Had bloods done today to try to see what's causing my constant spotting/bleeding and then my scan tomorrow so hopefully that'll shed some light. Will post the pic I tried to take but it's fairly blurry 🤦🏻‍♀️! Xx

Also have to say I'm a bit worried not heard from @Lea89, hopefully she's either resting up or moved to pregnancy boards! But either way I'm hoping she's well ❤️! Xx

Hi @Elles1980, I can see a bit of a shadow but it is a bit blurry. Maybe the hospital can do a test? It could just be a bit early too, When's af due? Hope it goes well at your scan 🤞

Got a fertility appointment this afternoon, hoping to pick up where we left off. Also going to ask him if he thinks we should carry on ttc or wait until he's done more investigations xx

@VenusStarr no I think it was just a shadow too!! Just about to head off to my first hospital appointment of the week to get myself checked, had bloods done yesterday and they did do HCG. I wish you the best of luck this afternoon Hun, do let us all know how you get on xxx

Hi @Elles1980 how did the scan go? Had a good appointment with our fertility doctor. I'll be having surgery to remove a fibroid and he's referred us to the recurrent miscarriage clinic which I'm pleased about as you don't normally get referred until you've had 3. He's encouraged us to continue ttc whilst we're waiting, so once we feel up to it, we'll keep going :) xx

@VenusStarr that's literally the best outcome!! Super happy for you! Well they scanned both internally and externally and we're a bit iffy with information and just said they would report finding back to my doctor, although good news is there's nothing left over from the last d&c so that's good news. Have been told to use protection until internal bleed has been found which is just common sense really. I'm sure if they saw anything sinister they would tell. Colposcopy has been brought forward to Thursday morning now also so that's good and big finally meeting with doc on Monday morning and I should know all! IV definitely had my share of NHS funds since may, it's someone else's turn lol! Keeping positive as I still don't feel unwell in myself just anxiety which I have anyways! How exciting for you to be able to keep trying though I'm well pleased for you! That's made me smile 😊 xxx

Glad you have your doctors appointment on Monday and they've brought your Colposcopy forward, not long to wait to find out 🤞 am pleased that you have the all clear from your d+c too.

Can definitely relate to the NHS funds, I've seen more medical professionals in this last 12 months than I have in my life! More to come but hopefully with positive outcomes thank you for being supportive and cheering us on 😊❤️ keep me posted xx

Well I don't know where to start, I did another test Tuesday & Wednesday and they got darker, so I went to my colposcopy appointment Thursday (it's right next to you so they tested me again 100% preggers!) My bleeding had stopped since Monday also which was very weird, so she still had a look at my cervix and said it was super thin membranes and she wasn't worried at all! It's was my yongests 5th birthday so we left the hospital super buzzed. Yesterday I started bleeding so heavily (I guess like a normal period but with cramps)! So I'm expecting this one to have gone also 😒! Ithi k it's called a chemical pregnancy? I googled it?! The good news is that I can have some tablets to stop me bleeding all the time and everything they have done has come back clear so far, IV been scanned inside and out, MRI, bloods for utterly everything and lastly the colposcopy so hopefully this will put an end to my constant bleeding at least. I'm seeing my doctor on Monday as she said she will do HCG bloods and talk about what we can do next, so now I'm all clear of anything sinister we can maybe look at why I'm having miscarriages, I know it's probably age related! Anyways I had major anxiety yesterday but feeling much much better today! I hope your all well ladies sending hugs. I'm off to have a day of fun ant a country park and then to the beach for tea ❤️! Love living in Cornwall! Xxx

I'm really sorry to hear that @Elles1980, I hope you get some answers today but glad they've ruled out anything sinister 💜 such a worrying time. Hope you had a good weekend.

I had my follow up scan on Friday and it confirmed that the miscarriage was complete 💔it's starting to hit me now and I'm not coping that well. My GP has signed me off for a further 2 weeks. Dh and I have decided to stop ttc until I've had my surgery, we just can't keep putting ourselves through it. Hoping this will give us the best possible chance to have a healthy pregnancy and baby but it's really tough, ttc has been my life for nearly 2 years. I need the break physically and mentally but am feeling a bit lost.

Let me know how your appointment goes today xxx

Not even gonna lie, I wrote the longest message then a leaflet boy delivered a leaflet (obviously) my message went.....and this is a continuation of my shitty day 🤦🏻‍♀️😂! I thought the doc was going to give me a tablet to stop the internal bleeding but alas she said no. It's either get pregnant or have a hysteroscopy. Oh has said no to TTC anymore till he's sure it's only cervical erosion causing the bleed. She's confirmed chemical pregnancy also but said she's not worried about conceiving as we've done it twice this year already. If me and oh ain't TTC what we gonna do?? Like you @VenusStarr it's taken over our lives!! He's out me on a sex ban till after the bloody hysteroscopy 😱😂! Is this even normal I mean men can't do this shit can they lol?
So do you have a date for your op? It'll be so weird not checking ovulation and stuff this month but there we go!!
@SunStruck how are you doing?
@Lea89 if you do see these messages it would be super lovely to hear at least a moan about how horrid pregnancy is and what little sleep your getting coz tour always in the loo 🥰😂!! Xxx
