LT TTC after Miscarriage or Loss #12

**Sunbeam** · July 18th, 2012, 07:57 PM

Hey girls,

Well GED went for her bt today to see if the nasal spray is doing it's thing. If it has then she starts jabbing on friday so

I can hardly believe we are at this point already.

Andie - it is a sort of strange process because at this point it is all happening outside of my body which feels kind of odd. No i never did get to recording the new meditation, maybe this weekend, though I don't feel I've been too stressed so not really needed it. I have been rather negative about it the last week or so but I think that is because a friend of mine just lost her baby girl at 14 weeks due to Trisomy 18 and it just put me in a bad frame of mind. My walks help keep my head clear and this morning I saw 7 kangaroos. Such a lovely way to start the day. Where are things up to for you?

sunbeam, sorry to her about your friends news, thats really upsetting. xx
let us know how GED's bt went, and how her her first jab goes tomorrow.

im just waiting for af so that i can book in nk cell biopsy, hopefully it will turn up in the next few days. or not. you know our bodies run on their own schedule.

Hi Girls,
The bt went great and GED did her first jab today she said it wasn't too bad. So the count down is on and with heaps of luck in 12 days time I will hopefully have a gorgeous little basket of 22 year old eggies

TMS - Hi good to see you.

Andie - I hope AF does not mess around and gets here asap. Good luck with the NK test.

Hi Girls

I am jumping into this thread. I been LTTC since Nov 10 and undergoing IVF since Oct 2011. After 6 cycles, 5 transfers we finally got our BFP in on the 9th of June. All went well at the 7 week scan, we saw the heartbeat. Yesterday I had another scan as I was concerned I didn't have any symptoms and sure enough the scan showed bubs didn't progress past 7 weeks. It must have stopped a few days after our scan. I should have been 10 weeks today. We are utterly devastated. I cant stop crying and poor DH doens't know what to do with himself.

I have to have a d&c on Monday as I have not passed it. I still have 2 day five frosties, so I guess we are back on the TTC wagon.

omg Vic I cannot believe I just read this I am so so sorry my darling, you poor thing

you deserve to be devastated xxxxxx

**Andie78** · July 20th, 2012, 03:56 PM

im really sorry you find yourself in here, vic.

please know we are here for you if/when you need to chat/vent. it is such a distressing time. i wish i had some wise words for you, but its simply unfair. xx

**vic261** · July 20th, 2012, 04:00 PM

Thanks girls. It seems like such a nightmare. And I wish that I could just wake up

**Sunbeam** · July 20th, 2012, 08:28 PM

Vic -I am so sorry you have lost your little one, its so devastating. My last mc was the same I was nearly 10 weeks but my symptoms had stopped and bub had stopped growing about 8 weeks. It is like a nightmare only its all day long. You are in the right place for support and understanding here. You and DH just need to do what ever can to take care of yourselves through this awful time. Huge hugs

Hi girls,

Not good news. GED's E2 was only 125 yesterday after 6 days on FSH which means she either has not been injecting right or she is not responding to the meds. Either way there will be no EPU next wednesday . She is having a scan tomorrow morning so we will know more then. If we don't get to do this cycle I have a feeling she won't cycle again as it has been so difficult for her to manage it around work and the kids.

**Saffy** · July 27th, 2012, 09:26 AM

Oh no, what a bummer, is there any way it will improve? Are they doing a scan? What dose was she on, its a shame cos first cycles are such a trial of doses etc. Really hope things pick up babe xx

**vic261** · July 27th, 2012, 09:50 AM

Oh Sunbeam, how very frustrating for all concerned. Its hard enough when our own bodies dont do what they need to do, never mind when a third party is involved

I am surprised at 22 she is not responding to the meds. Maybe they have been really cautious with her dosage?

Will be thinking of you and know how disappointed you must be

**Joeve** · July 27th, 2012, 01:35 PM

Sunbeam oh no. My e bottomed out and they made me have a pregnyl shot and it bounced back up. Hope the scan shows some good progress x

**Sunbeam** · July 27th, 2012, 07:50 PM

Thanks girls. She is having a scan in the morning so we'll know more then. She's been on 125iu and they have increased that to 200 today.

**Andie78** · July 27th, 2012, 08:35 PM

i agree with saffy - bummer... i hope the bigger dose of 200 does something to help the situation. crossing everything for you for tomorrow, sunbeam. xx
