Hi all,
First time posting so hoping this works and is the right thread as I’m freaking out!
I’ll try to keep this as detailed but concise as possible just so you have the wider picture.
After hitting my 30s I came off the marina coil and didn’t get my periods back. Long journey with sub-fertility clinic, then met my partner and went straight to fertility.
We had a successful IUI in March 2022, 8 wk scan showed I’d lost it at 6wks. Tried again in June, July and August but my lining failed to respond. Hysteroscopy in November; IVF Feb 23, lining still failing so had 7 embryos on ice (had them genetically tested and 2 of the 4 tested were perfect) - tried everything, second hysteroscopy Nov 23, more scarring found and we finally had a FET Feb 24 which resulted in chemical pregnancy; which I found out at my 7wk scan. Had cramps and back ache but started heavy spotting two days before the scan otherwise had been fine.
Another FET 7 May 24 (with 800mgs p/day of cyclogest) and awful cramps and bleeding a week later. I still ended up with a positive test on my testing date but I’m still spotting after they increased me to 1200mgs per day. I have cramps and backache most days but they come and go and I don’t need pain relief which I know can be the cyclogest…! I had my bloods done last week at 4.4 wks and my hgc was at 2035 so the clinic said not to worry and to come for a scan next Weds.
Not enough spotting to really need to change my pantyliner each day, altho I of course do. It’s light to dark brown with a one off small black stringy most days.
The anxiety is killing me. I check ALL THE TIME. My nipples are sore and my taste buds a little off but I’m trying to tell myself I’ve lost it but it’s not calming me down. I’m waking up with my heart racing, do see an acupuncturist once a week which helps but nothing else is working. So wanting to know if anyone else has had this? Or positive stories. My clinic has said to only worry if I had red blood…
I’m falling out with Dr Google as I’ve read everything on there so out of sources. I’ve heard about subchorionic hematomas but won’t know for another week and I swear time is going backwards…
ARGH!!
I really want to be able to enjoy each day as I’m aware one might be my last, but I’m a mess and want this baby so much 🤯
