We are planning to start TTC in the new year and I have come across my first hurdle.

I have recently been to he doctor for some blood tests for an eye infection that wouldn't clear up. When the results came back they found that I had a positive result for protein in my blood. My doctor compared this to Lupus which I didn't know anything about but have since found out a lot of information on the net. On some of the Lupus support sites I saw that this disorder can cause an increased risk of miscarriage. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with this disorder while TTC or being pregnant. My test results weren’t so high that I should panic yet but they want to keep an eye on it so I have to go back for tests in February. Should I hold of TTC until I get the next blood test results?

I am eager to begin this TTC journey which we have been planning for over 12 months but I don't want to go through the heart ache of MC if I can avoid it.

I have been reading the entry's on BB for over 12 months now but it is only now that I am starting to understand the frustration of complications that you ladies have been going through for those that have been TTC for a while now (God I haven’t really even started TTC yet so what hope have I got #-o of keeping my sanity).

Anyways, anyone with any advice on this would be very helpful at putting my mind at ease.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
