Hey ladies, I'd like to join in here too. I had a miscarriage last September at 10 weeks. I haven't gotten pregnant since, and I'm really losing hope. I'm now seeing a gynecologist. I've had an ultrasound of my uterus and had to do blood tests throughout my cycle. I have another appointment in August. Everything was fine with my uterus back then, but it really feels strange that I'm still not pregnant. It's quite odd. They're also going to examine my husband's sperm; that has to be done a week before our appointment. We're currently on vacation. I've started my period again. It's always a disappointment, and I find it really hard. By the way, my ovulation and cycle are good, and I keep feeling and noticing my ovulation.
GOOD NEWS! HCG is now 596.. still being a little cautious but it's heading in the right direction.
Actually in three days it's more than doubled, still seeing some pink streaks when I pee but the assistant says this is fine as long as I'm not bleeding heavily or having severe abdominal pain. I'm allowed to come in on Wednesday 1/8 for an ultrasound.
It's really starting to become reality.. I'm going to stop worrying and just enjoy it calmly until I finally see the ultrasound.
All that stressing about it isn't good for the baby either, and I still have no idea how far along I am due to the late ovulation.
Dear Leetje,
Your story is very relatable, we've been trying for 1 year and 2 months now and finally it's time.
If you're too focused on it, it apparently doesn't help, I've experienced that myself. Now that I've let it go, it suddenly happened.
I hope it'll be time for you soon, Leetje, I completely understand how you feel.
@ Dani, I hope everything is going okay for you. It's really tough not to be involved, especially since everyone around you is talking about it and knows you're dealing with it, especially after that miscarriage. I find it really hard. Especially today is my first negative test day, and I really feel very emotional and struggle with it. Every single time. And the worst part is that I'm on vacation and can't let it go, and you keep hearing people say things like "Oh, don't you want kids yet?" and stuff like that, and I just think, "Please, stop with all the questions." I'm really fed up with everything.
Yeaahhhh Bloempjee!!!!
I see it too and normally you can't really see a faint line on the photo.
I hope it's like that then we'll embark on the adventure together hahahah!
I'm rooting for you Bloempje.
So lovely all the support ladies!!
Leetje,
Yes, I totally get you. It's so draining and something you just can't let go of.
But hopefully, the gynecologist can answer your questions.
I've also been really sad about it, and you always stay afraid that something will go wrong.
It looked so beautiful, but my bleeding is getting worse. I couldn't resist and did a Clearblue weeks test. Normally it should show 3+ by now, but like last time, it's showing 2-3 weeks. What does that mean? HCG didn't rise nicely this week. I just called and they said I can come in now. I'm so sad... lots of luck to you girls, I hope things go well for you. I'll keep you updated.
Oh no, that's such a shame, Dani! I read about someone who didn't get the digital test until after 3+ weeks but was still pregnant and everything went well. So it's definitely possible! Hopefully, you'll get good news!
Hi Bloempje.
You must have been rooting for me! And it probably helped!!!
Miracles still happen.
On Friday, bleeding again, went to the gynecologist... she saw a thickened uterine lining but no embryo.
I had to prepare myself for a third miscarriage this year. Made appointments for blood tests to check the HCG drop and had a chromosomal analysis done for me and my partner.
This morning I was curious about my HCG results and nearly fell off my chair. Yes ma'am, your values from Friday were 941 and from Monday 1832.
Tomorrow evening I'm coming back for an ultrasound. Hopefully we jumped to conclusions too quickly.
I'll keep you all updated on this wild adventure!!
Just dropped by to peek at your posts. I'm on my way to the OB/GYN for my appointment in 15 minutes... I'm nervous as hell!!! Could it really be? I hardly dare to hope... I'll keep you posted!!
