Rant/Vent Falling behind

5 Upvotes

I just feel like we’re falling behind. All our friends are either OAD or have a perfect 2 year gap between all their kids. It took us 22 months to conceive #1, and we have MFI but subfertility (some sperm). I feel like my poor husband has been on every supplement/ Mucinex/ diet under the sun, it’s not lifestyle related. I guess we’re going to move on to IUI and I’m just exhausted.

Question Positive stories after chemical pregnancy

3 Upvotes

Hey guys. Sorry - I know a bit self-centred to have 2 posts in one week.

After spotting on dpo12 I had a very unexpected BFP at dpo13. Still spotting very mildly. Dpo15 has rolled around and of course I’m now barely positive.

I’m sat here waiting on a blood bHCG but I am pretty sure I’m about to find out I’ve had a chemical pregnancy. I’ve had one of these before, before I had my daughter. And of course I’m on holiday, for maximum miserable-factor.

This is my 10th cycle of trying and I am so frustrated this is the end result. There’s no justice!

Anyway - just searching for positive success stories after a chemical pregnancy. Thanks all xxx

Just to update the b-HCG came back so low as to be negative - so definitely a CP. Down with this sort of thing!

Tell us about everything! Only thing that isn't allowed is BFP and pregnancy talk - those have their own threads.

Question TTC - Feeling confident but as AF approaches, not so much!

1 Upvotes

I’ve been TTC since April, I know it’s not that long but this cycle i felt really confident at the start. I just felt like I’m pregnant in the TWW - I experienced some symptoms such as sore breasts, tiredness etc but as AF comes closer my confidence has dropped massively! Has anyone else experienced this? I’m not sure if i’m preparing myself for bad news or my body just knows.

One of my friends children told her there is a baby in someone’s belly which she is taking as a good sign for me but i’m really not sure.

I don’t want to add pressure to the situation worrying about timescales and upcoming events and trying to plan around that because that’s not how life goes but this rollercoaster is crazy and I just hope for my BFP

Question Irregular cycles, Provera, Conception

1 Upvotes

Looking for insight on irregular cycles!

I have a 9 month old baby.
It is currently late July and I stopped breastfeeding in late February of this year and have only had 1 natural cycle since (1 week after completing weaning). I have been on 2 rounds of 10 days of Provera to induce bleeds since. My second cycle on Provera was way closer to how my cycles were pre pregnancy and my withdrawal bleed started the day after my last Provera dose.

We are wanting to get pregnant again soon.

Anyone with similar experience?

Have you had success on letrozole?

All of my lab work/hormone panel came back normal!

Discussion TTC 2nd Pregnancy

0 Upvotes

My first pregnancy I got pregnant on the first try. I kind of assumed that would happen again, but I just got my period so obviously it didn’t.

Any success stories of getting pregnant 2nd or 3rd month of TTC?

I know I shouldn’t complain about it not happening right away, I’m just feeling more down than I expected to today.
