Intro

Hi, Ladies. I am finally going to introduce myself. I have been a little nervous about it, but I am hoping you'll have me.

My history is this...DH and I started TTC in June 08. I got pregnant in September. I felt very nervous and was terrified something was going to go wrong. I guess my instinct was right. I had a m/c in October.

DH and I took a few months off from TTC and decided in January 2009 to start again. I got pregnant in April but had another m/c in May. I had a new OB at that point, and he agreed to start RPL testing for us. It was discovered I had elevated anticardiolipin antibodies and I was told to start taking baby aspirin every day. I was also told to wait two cycles to TTC. We never made past the initial bloodwork. While we were "on a break" I ended up pg. I was temping/charting and O'd way early.Of course when I figured it out, it was too late. I was convinced it would end badly, but it didn't. Our daughter was born via c/s due to being frank breech. She was perfect!

DH and I decided we would TTC again when she was 6 months old because we were concerned about the previous issues,and also because we wanted three children. I am turning 35 in a few months and was starting to worry about that as well. It is now our 7th cycle trying. I am going to OB tomorrow for my yearly exam and plan on asking him about next steps. I was really hoping TTC this time around would be easier.

Sorry that was so long.

    Welcome to the board.  I am sorry for your losses. Talking to the OB is a start, but if I were you, I would consult an RE.  The specialize in getting women pregnant and have the knowledge and experience that an OBGYN does not.  Lots of luck to you.

    Thank you. I have to get a referral for the RE, so I am hoping to get that today. My insurance only covers diagnostics, not treatment for IF but I have to have the referral to get an appointment.
