    Exclamation Our TTC Story.. (will be updated)

    hi all,

    the doctors that we've seen.. seem to think our story is very interesting, so i thought i might share, & see if anyone else has gone through something similar.

    we stopped birth control about 2 ish months ago.

    First period off the pill: 25th June - July 1st.

    Had sex from: July 1st - July 24th. (not everyday, but once every 2-3)

    Second period OR implantation bleed: July 25th - July 28th. (no clots, no pain)

    Woke up & i felt different (bloated, slight cramp, not hungry) July 31st -Took 7 different brands of pregnancy tests, all positive.

    Spotting: August 1st - August 2nd was light blood / brown spotting.

    Blood test for HCG & blood type: August 2nd - We're 2-3 weeks along. My HCG level is 104.

    Ultrasound: My doctor thinks it's probably too early, in most cases you need 1000 HCG to see anything, but she said we might be able to see the sac. EDIT Had our first ultrasound, as i said because we're so early she couldn't see anything, but it was worth a try!

    Blood test #2: This Saturday at 8am i will have my second blood test, we will get results back at 8pm that night, IF my HCG level is higher than 104, then we haven't miscarried. IF my HCG level has dropped... then we have. EDIT Had blood test this morning.. now waiting for results EDIT My HCG levels dropped down to 30... so we did miscarry

    we were so positive that it was going to stick. we feel so numb about it.. never felt like this before.

    so i have been referred to a gynecologist to be examined (for anything left over) then we will start TTC after my first period.

    thanks again to all your lovely words of support

    xxxx baby dust to all
