TTC After a Loss

IVF first cycle baby loss :(

Hi everyone I was supposed to be due April 20th but at my first u/s yesterday they saw that I had miscarried...my worst nightmare :( we've been trying to have a baby for 3 years and when we finally tried IVF this summer and it worked we were so happy! So hard to have your dreams shattered. I cannot stop crying and I haven't even started bleeding yet bc I was on progesterone gel I never has any sign of loss and today will be my first day not using progesterone so I will prob start bleeding soon. I'm so bummed :( I can't stop thinking about it and crying...happy one day devastated the next :(

Re: IVF first cycle baby loss :(

  • I'm so very sorry. I hope you'll find the board to be a comforting place.

  • So sorry for your loss. It's so unfair and none of us should have to go through this. Although I haven't tried IVF yet, hubby and I lost our first pregnancy after trying for about 3yrs and half. It's so hard especially after trying for a while. Feel free to PM if you need someone to chat to.

  • I'm sorry for your loss. Crying is normal, you're devastated and your hormomes are going to be out of whack for a little bit. Cry when you need to. Holding your emotions in won't help anything. Give yourself time to heal and grieve. This board is full of amazing, supportive women to help you through.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss. I think we all can relate to that feeling of joy one day replaced by complete devastation the next. The crying is normal, I was the same. I could not stop for almost 3 straight days. My head was pounding and I could hardly breathe from crying so much but I couldn't stop. But it does get better with some time. I hope you find the support you need here. ((Hugs))

  • I am so sorry for your loss and that you find yourself here. I'm mobile so I'm having a hard time reading PPs responses but wanted to suggest you visit the miscarriage board as well. Most of the ladies here are in the TTCAL phase of their journey and right now you may benefit from the support of ladies who are fresher from their losses. ((((Hugs))))
  • I am so sorry for your loss. I lost our FET baby after four years of IF, IUIs and IVF. I will warn you that with a missed m/c stopping progesterone doesn't necessarily start the process. I was on PIO shots and suppositories and nothing started so a few days later I chose to take the miso.

  • I'm so very sorry for your loss.  I also cried uncontrollably. Like the other ladies said, be gentle to yourself. For me that meant ordering takeout and lying in bed with my dog and watching pretty much every season of the Office. I hope you find comfort here and that you are getting the support from your medical team that you deserve.
           The best coping mechanism I have found is taking things one day at a time.

  • Big Big Hugs!! Take everything one day at a time. For us we looked at it as being hopeful since we now know we can get pregnant and I threw myself into looking into every test I could find to be tested with to see if we could learn why we had our loss. It made time go faster and gives me confidence and finally hope with starting fertility again (my loss was in Apr and we took off through two full cycles).

    That statement can be hurtful to ladies who RPL and not provide comfort. I can get pregnant but my body can't carry - these platitudes are best left off the board.

  • Thanks everyone for all your support. It humbles me to know that all of you understand what I'm going through. I'm allowing myself to cry but try to keep busy and get my mind off of what's happened. Kind of hard when your cramping and waiting for your period to start...it's a constant reminder. Have to go have another blood test Sunday to see if my betas have gone down even more as they want it to go past zero into the negatives :( so depressing :( I have 2 frozen embryos and will try again...still so hard to imagine I'm going through this ...it feels like I'm living a dream or should I say nightmare :( thanks for the comfort everyone. May the angels surround you all in love and light xo
