MC follow up and 5 days no soda

in TTC After a Loss

So today was my follow up.  Dr said "everything looks good" what the heck ever that means.... ok so I know what it means but I don't like it.... Then he said wait a month to try again.  He said no testing till the 3rd loss and I asked if there was ANYTHING I could do if I get pg again to prevent a loss and he said "no". I just wanted to bawl.  I could not go back to work, thankfully I have a pretty flexible job.  Instead I went home and cried and had a bowl of ice cream.  Opted for Pizza when the dh called cause I did not want to bother with having to cook......

On the upside before the last BFP I was up to about 16 diet sodas a day, and while I am 5 days "clean" if you will I wanted one soooooo bad today!  I resisted temptation and hopefully I can make changes to my diet as well so that I can drop about 40 lbs.... I read online somewhere that even 5-10% loss if you are over weight can help prevent MC.....heres hoping right?

    While in my head I can understand them saying to wait until 3 losses to do testing, my heart just doesn't understand it.

    I'm really sorry :(

    YAY on no soda!!!  That is so good for you!!

    I'm so sorry it was a tough visit and a tough day but kudos to you for staying "clean." ;) That had to have been tough but definitely a positive to think about.

    {{{HUGS}}} so sorry for your loss. I think you deserve to treat yourself to a diet soda. Just one shouldn't hurt.

    I'm sorry your dr isn't offering to do testing.  If you really want to push it you could always try another doc.  More and more are doing testing after two losses now. 

    Way to go with staying away from the soda!  Keep it up.

    Sounds like a very hard visit. But way to try to find a silver lining in this... I was a crazy diet pepsi addict for awhile- I was even hiding it from DH!

    That stinks that your OB will not do testing. Can you tell him that the American OBGYN Association now recommends rpl testing after 2 loses and that you want it. I would demand it!
