TTC After a Loss

Making my way back again

Well I feel like a complete louse.  Between the back and forth of the recent losses I've had, the fact that I just stopped posting anywhere because I hated the mobile format so much, and just being busy with DS and work, I really haven't been a big part of this board I guess.  But I hope you'll have me back ... even though I'm not completely ready yet to be anywhere.  

I'm having a very, very difficult time with this loss emotionally right now.  Well, since I found out about it only today I guess of course that's to be expected.  But this one just feels like it's hitting me harder than the others.  For so many reasons, on so many levels.

You have all been so supportive of me even though I've only popped in here and there when I've been able. I hope it's okay if I come back.  I know I should probably be looking for support on the miscarriage board but I feel like I just don't think I can "be" there much right now. It's more of like a "passing through" board for me.  And I've passed through this door before.   

I'm waiting for the confirmation ultrasound to happen next Tue.  Which is just ripping me apart on so many levels.  Actually, now I realize that's one of many reasons that makes this so hard.  The fact that I have to wait for this final ultrasound to confirm that it's not viable.  

Okay now I'm just rambling.  But I hope you'll have me back here again.  I have such great respect for all the ladies on this board, even those I don't know yet, just by the fact that we are all on this journey.  I wish none of us had to be here.  

Lots of hugs.

    Laura, I'm so, so sad that we are sharing this day together.  I have been thinking about you in particular ever since I saw your post too and am sending you big, huge, squishy hugs too. 

    imageravenclaw1:
    Dammit. Another person coming back?!? This blows. I'm just getting angry at this point. So sorry you're back. What did they tell you at your appointment?

    Basically the Dr told me that while he wasn't ready to "call it," it really, really didn't look like a viable pregnancy.  Then when I left the office the nurse checking me out said, well, just to let you know, I have seen it both ways.  Sometimes it turns around and sometimes it doesn't.  My husband and I sort of wanted to smack her because at this point - 6w 5d!!! - I am sure we should have seen something.  And there was NOTHING in that sac.  So I know she was trying to be nice and do her job but it was just hard.  My betas rose again but way, way, way too slow - getting slower between each draw.  So they scheduled me for a follow up u/s Tue but I have basically no hope about it.

     My thoughts exactly.  Hugs to you, I'm sorry you're here.

    BFP #1 - chemical pregnancy, natural miscarriage at 7 weeks on 2/11/12 BFP #2 - u/s at 8 weeks showed a tiny fetal pole measuring at 6 weeks, heart rate slow at 94bpm. Natural miscarriage a few days later on 4/15/12 August 2012- Diagnosed with pancreatic divisum, September - ERCP w/stent placement. Fingers crossed this was the issue! Doc gave the go-ahead to start trying again. BFP #3 - Chemical pregnancy ending a few days after Thanksgiving 2012. Clearly my pancreas was not the issue. Doc told us to try one more time. BFP #4 - Chemical pregnancy ending in January 2013. Now I'm pissed. February- meeting with RE. Test results show I have a low egg reserve and DH has severely messed up sperm. Docs are quite confused as to how we're getting pregnant to begin with. Let the IVF games begin!! April - stim time!! 7R, 6F via ICSI, 5 made it to day 5, 3 look "good enough" to be sent for PGS testing. We are now the proud owners? Parents? Of 2 healthy frozen embryos. June - ugh. Lupron. So much Lupron. And Aygestin, and Estrogen, and Progesterone suppositories. Things are going in to my body every way possible! July 25- scheduled for our first FET. Aaand huge fail. All of the estrogen gave my pancreas a good old fashioned hissy fit. Long story short, moving on to gestational carrier.
  • I'm so sorry your having to go through this again.  Hugs
