Pregnant after a Loss

Paging anyone who got pg post m/c pre AF

How did you know/find out? What were your clues/symptoms? And could you tell them apart from residual (and/or returning) pg symptoms from your angel baby?

Re: Paging anyone who got pg post m/c pre AF

  • I did... I had no clue except that after about7 weeks of not getting AF, I took a pg test and it was possitive... I had no symptoms as it was only about 4-5 weeks.... I had to have several early u/s to be sure it was a viable pregnancy becaust my m/c was about 7 weeks...

    Hey there sweetie,

    Yes. I had every symptom in the book, but I was also on progesterone so who knows what symptoms I would have still had as a result of the hormone. 

    I think my biggest symptom is my boobs.  They get really sore, veiny and big and the montgomery glands become more prominent.  That is usually the first sign for me.  Um then I guess the frequent urination is next and then some dizziness.

    I was really surprised by my BFP though because I was really set on February so I really wasn't expecting it at all.

    So are you guys trying again right away?  I guess your husband came around eh?  My DH knows better than to stand in the way of a woman and her desire for a baby!! GL

    We actually aren't trying yet - I wanted to wait a few months to get me back in shape physically first - but I am starting to suspect that maybe...
    Very worried right now, my body has not had time to heal post m/c (I heal slow) and DH just got laid off Friday (the place that laid him off is hiring in July again though - funding issues, really dumb), and I want to get in asap to see an ob when I get pg again and haven't had time to call around and find out who would see me before 8 weeks.  If this is a BFP I will be praying really hard...

  • I did, but it was after my chemical pregnancy so I hadn't been very far along. I knew my levels were back to zero because my OB had checked them. Did you ever have your hcg level checked? Can you get it checked now? If you can't then you could POAS every could days to see if the line is getting lighter or darker. GL! :)
  • I did, but I got the all clear from my OB to do so. ?I had POAS to make sure I got BFNs and was trying so I also used OPKs and all that. ?I think the reason I knew was I had the exact symptoms that had disspeared when I m/c.

  • I monitored when I ovulated (the same as always) and figured out after the first pregnancy that my first symptom is waking up in the middle of the night to pee. ?Once that started happening, I pretty much knew and had to wait a couple of days for BFP.
  • We had dr. consent to try at this point, but we only had sex 2 times so I thought that it was probably nothing even though I was having some symptoms.  At my 6 wk m/c follow up my doc examined me and said that based on what he was seeing, I was likely pregnant.  He sent me for bw the next day and I got my BFP that way :-)

    1st pregnancy: m/c began 1/12/09 d&c 1/13/09 8wks. Baby stopped growing at about 6wks.

  • The only reason I tested was bc I starting spotting and I thought it was af but it only lasted one day. I thought that was very strange bc I never spot so I tested and got a positive.
