@travellingbee: That really sucks! I hope it works out.
-
@AprilFool: thanks! Me too!
-
I'm out. Hoping March is our
month. Initial consultation with the RE scheduled for Monday. Does anyone know if they'd do day 3 blood work on the first visit (it would be day 3 for me and why wait another month)
-
@YogiRunner: I'm sorry
-
@YogiRunner: They could. Mine had to be fasting though.
-
Negative test this morning at 12DPO. No AF yet but a tiny bit of spotting a few hrs ago (my LP used to be be 13 days, but that was pre-baby and Mirena so I'm not sure about now yet). I'm guessing I'll probably start tomorrow.
-
@YogiRunner: @lovehoneybee:
-
@AprilFool: It's okay, I would have loved a Nov baby but I've actually always wanted a Dec baby so fingers crossed for next month!
-
I'm out
-
@chaosmaven: "My doctor feels that these issues are from the m/c (as opposed to causing it, which is my suspicion)."
Ugh very similar boat over here, wondering if the miscarriage is a symptom of a larger problem. I switched to a new obgyn after the Oct loss and he attributed my irregular, long cycles and light periods to the miscarriage, but offered testing in March if I don't stabilize by then. But, I forgot to tell him about the ovarian cysts I had in November, and that knowledge combined with acne and tons of abdominal weight, makes me think PCOS...
I hope we can both get answers sooner rather than later! Have you considered switching obgyns?
-
@lovehoneybee: fingers crossed.

@DesertDreams88: Totally understand. I was kind of a mess after my appointment last week, as I was really hoping to get some answers as to what is going on with my LP. I have a number of PCOS signs but I am still ovulating reasonably consistently, so she feels it may be related to my miscarriage.
I haven't thought about changing doctors, as she is a family med dr, who is my OB and primary, as well as the pediatrician for my DD. I really love and trust her, I think I'm just having a hard time with the "calm down and wait for healing" approach that everyone is advocating right now. So I'm going to tough out the next couple months, and work on improving my physical health and stress levels. Hopefully I get lucky in the next couple months. This cycle was better than the last couple (due to the B50, I think), so there is hope!
Are you going to have testing done next month? Has your dr indicated what they will do?
-
@chaosmaven: Ah, I see, definitely wouldn't want to switch if she's that central to you and your family's healthcare! Yes, the "calm down and wait for healing" can be quite frustrating.... Mentally I know it's the sensible approach for now, and sometimes I'm able to agree with it and have peace, but other days I'm just like, "Let's draw a pint of blood and test it for everything possible, and how about an ultrasound while we're at it?"
Yeah, my obgyn said to call if this cycle is irregular too (which would be cycle 5, month 9). I'm hoping to fit in some bloodwork (estrogen, FSH, LH, progesterone, maybe insulin, etc.) and an ultrasound of my ovaries sometime March 11-13, which is when this cycle will be 34-36 days long. I go away on a week-long vacation the next week, otherwise I'd wait until like day 40. He mentioned someone about "medication" for my long cycles, but didn't go into specifics.
-
@DesertDreams88: Yes, yes... "Let's draw a pint of blood and test it for everything possible, and how about an ultrasound while we're at it?" That's what I've been thinking all week! It seems so easy to draw blood and test for everything once you are pregnant, but they are so hesitant at this stage. Seriously, I know there is the cost and I don't normally advocate over treating, but why are they so against getting more information? Even just a baseline to compare to in 4 months to see how everything evens out. So frustrating!
-
Excited to announce that I received a positive pregnancy test this weekend! Went of BC in July and I don't think I actually ovulated until this month. I had been testing for ovulation since early December with nothing happening until the 6th of this month. This will be our first baby, fingers crossed everything sticks!
-
@alphagam84: Congratulations! Wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months!!!
-
@alphagam84: Congrats!
-
@lovehoneybee: bummer... but December babies are great!
@alphagam84: Congrats!
I'm waiting it out for AF to arrive in the next day or two... I'm not super hopeful but we will see. It's been an off week. Right now I'm trying to hold out & not test. I bought some this weekend when I was at the store without the kids just in case. I just hate the waiting!
-
@creativemomma15: Fingers crossed!!!
-
i am anxiously awaiting through what I hope is at least a 12 day wait! I am currently on 7 dpo. AF is expected on Thursday but I hope she holds out to the weekend at least Sunday so I can say I had a good length LP post weaning! Or better yet, i hope she doesn't come at all and i get a BFP
FX to everyone still waiting to test
and sorry for all the recent BFNs
-
Good luck to those testing at the end of the month!!
-
@alphagam84: Congratulations! Wishing you all the best! And fingers crossed for all those waiting at the end of the month!
-
i am 8dpo and going crazy!!!! my period app and FF says AF is due tomorrow! please either never get my period or at least a few days longer to have a longer LP!!!! i want to test so bad but am holding out until the weekend!
-
@californiadreams: Hang in there!!! Fingers crossed that this is your month!
-
@JennyG: thank you! Ironically, i won't be that upset anymore if i am not pregnant.....i just found out that I may have an opportunity for a job change but there are 100 things to consider before I decide whether i will do it....and pregnancy would complicate it further!
I primarily just don't want to get my period until the weekend, LOL. If i do get a BFP then i will be thrilled, just not completely bummed if i get a BFN. If that makes sense.
-
@alphagam84: just scrolling up and saw this. congratulations!!
-
@californiadreams: I am only 6dpo and I'm going crazy too!!! Having weird cramps and tinglings and a heightened sense of smell which are probably definitely from progesterone supplements but I can't help but obsess over them.
-
Plus my temp dipped like .4 degrees today so it's definitely an implantation dip...riiiiiight??
-
@CObee: yes!
my temp actually dipped by 0.13 today and it made me nervous because last month when my temp dipped, i got excited it could be implantation dip, but then i got AF the same day. so i will see what happens tomorrow....
-
so.... I'm out. AF made a lovely appearance after a crappy evening. Great way to end the day. I wasn't very hopeful for this month anyway, but the timing in midst of how my night was going sucked.
Sorry for the bad attitude.
-
@creativemomma15: awww, so sorry about the BFN and your crappy evening, hugs.
-
@creativemomma15:
I hope your night gets better
-
@californiadreams: yep I'm so nervous to wake up and temp tomorrow morning, hoping for a huge jump for both of us!
-
@creativemomma15: sorry about AF
. What a B.
-
I'm out. On to the next cycle.
-
well i am mega bummed. before i went to bed last night, i got some spotting and i just knew it would be AF and not implantation spotting and i was right. Full on AF overnight
I am not even upset about not getting pregnant, i have some career choices to make now and it might be a good thing to wait...but i wanted more than an 8 day luteal phase. That just leaves me feeling totally hopeless and defeated
-
@californiadreams: I'm sorry
