Infertility

I got AF and test results from RPL and clotting b/w

Thanks for the AF vibes cuties!!!  The evil red whore showed up this morning!!!

Also, clotting b/w showed I carry a single mutation for a gene called prothrombin. (does anyone have this?)

It puts you at a slightly higher risk for clotting and miscarriage.
I will be starting on a daily injection of lovenox once I start FET prep. 
 
While it sucks that I have to do daily injections I pray it will prevent any more losses.
 
Thanks cuties :)

It's been a long journey. TTC since 9/06. multiple IUI's and IVF's and 4 m/c's. IVF#3 = BFP, twins, induced at 34w6d due to baby b passing away (no explanation). Delivered on 35w1d, Baby A - baby girl, and Baby B - baby boy, our little angel.

  • Hooray for AF finally coming and the simplicity of doing lovenox injections.  I started doing them for my last FET (which was cancelled) and they weren't bad at all.  Just left some bruising on my belly.

  • I have two clotting disorders, not the same as your. I just know it caused my Oct. MC.How much Lovenox will you be on? I think the standard is 40 a day but as soon as I start progesterone I have to take 80 2X a day. The progesterone and estrogen make your blood stickier and thicker (or something like that) so it clots easier. Would have been nice if we were tested a long time ago huh?

  • It is nice to know that there is something you can take to help your chances.

    With my m/c, we are just assuming it is crappy eggs.

    And when AF is done visiting, send her my way.  She is expected on Saturday.

  • My cousins both have a prothrombin mutation.  One got PG once w/ no problems and then had RPL for years before a 2nd and then RPL for years again before a 3rd.  She didn't find out about the mutation until years after #3 was born.

    The other had no problem getting PG and then almost bled out during delivery.  Her 2nd pg she treated it and had zero problems

    Needless to say, i'm glad you know about it before you deliver! 

  • Glad she showed up so you can begin the next step. T&P that the medication will help and that no more losses will come your way.

  • Worms, lol at "evil red whore" and thank goodness for hopefully having some answers. I hope the lovenox is super helpful! Best wishes!

  • Thank God they found something that could explain your heartbreaking loss. I am keeping it all crossed for you this summer as you do your FET that will bring your sticky bfp. (((hugs))))
  • Me!!! Factor II prothombin gene mutation heter. version. I was on lovenox every day starting with after ET to 34 weeks of pregnancy! Then I was put on heparin until D-day.  I am going to be honest, lovenox sucks big time, it stinks going in and that needle is nothing like the gonal-f or lupron needle it is just a bit sharper and more uncomfortable. That being said, it is TOTALLY worth it as it helped to bring me my babies and will help you bring baby wormsie here. GL to you!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Glad AF is here and that you have some answers.  Having to take shots sucks, but if that's what's needed for a healthy take home baby Wormie, then that's what has to be done.  Good attitude that you will do what you have to do and to keep your eye on the prize.
