TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

In today's addition of stupid nurse (ETA with more news)

The same stupid nurse who gave me a hard time about my injection class a couple of months ago was the nurse I spoke with on Thursday who told me my beta had dropped and told me to be "cautiously optimistic" neglected to tell me to stop my meds so that I can start the miscarriage! Which means instead of this happening over my 4 day weekend it's going to happen during the week while I'm at work! Great! Who doesn't want to have a miscarriage while dealing with kids who have autism?!? When the nice nurse calls back with my results of the blood work from today I'm going to complain. Maybe there is some sensitivity training. So annoying.
ETA: So the good news is my beta is 2.5 which means I don't have to go back. I am going back for the WTF appointment on March 8th with my husband. The nurse was trying to be positive and said "well at least we know you can get pregnant." I said "This is my 2nd loss." She said "Oh well, in that case definitely come in and meet with him because he might want to do more blood work." I also asked if the odds were better if we kept trying right away or if we took a break and she said no. So... I think we're going to take a break and try IVF again the summer time. We'll see what happens March 8th. In the mean time I am sipping on a sweet tea vodka mixed with lemonade, yumm... it's noon but I'm off so it's a vacation, right?!?

I am glad that your level came down so quickly and that you can move forward (even if you do decide to take a break until summer). It just makes me mad that the nurse was such an idiot - like they think we are stupid and don't know what is going on. I would think that would be part of their training, especially working in a RE's office.
Enjoy your sweet tea vodka and lemonade hun. Sometimes a little alcohol is just what is needed. ((((hugs))))
Thank you hun! The doctor is also calling in some Tylenol with codeine to help take the edge off once it starts. Yeah I don't know why she is such an idiot. The good nurse can see on the "online flow sheet" that it said to keep taking all the meds and I wasn't making it up. Oh well... can only go forward from here. And We're taking a break from the meds but I think we're going to go back having "fun". You know reclaim our sex lives... it's been a long time where it has been dictated by the doctor- now it can just be when we want. So we have a trip already booked to Outer Banks, NC in July and now we're talking about either Barbados or St. Lucia in the spring. Might as well... Just have to talk to the boss people and I'll do that this week. Luckily, my boss had like 4 or 5 m/c's so she gets it.
