Secondary IF

Got the D&C chromosome testing back

To make my already hard day even worse, the RE's nurse just called to reschedule our followup appointment next week.  We had to put it off all the way to the 18th which is so frustrating.  But the worst part is she gave me the chromosome results from my D&C and the baby was chromosomally normal.  I didn't ask boy or girl because I knew I couldn't hear it right now.  I still have to talk more to the doctor at our appointment but this makes me so upset about my body and my uterus and my awful c-section.  I was so upset about having to have a c-section and I am furious that I feel like it's still affecting me.

I guess the one good thing is that it makes me feel less like my old eggs are to blame.  I think that maybe if it is my uterus it might be easier to fix.  

sorry if this was incoherent and thanks for listening.

Re: Got the D&C chromosome testing back

  • I would be mad at my uterus too! At least, like you said, your eggs are good! Maybe all your uterus needs is a good "house cleaning". We'll be rooting for you...and your uterus!

  • I'm so sorry. I think the last person I'd want to get that news from is L. Gah.

    I'm sure it must be really hard, from where you stand, to see any good news in what you heard, but what I hear is that you still have good eggs! 

    I'll let you know how the hysteroscopic surgery goes tomorrow. I'm hoping it's the smoking gun for me, and maybe it will be the magic bullet for you!

  • It must have been hard to get that call about the baby.  :(

    I wanted ours tested but when they did the D&C, they did not find any "products of conception."  I hate that terminology!

    I completely understand your frustration about a c-section, I feel like mine has screwed things up as well.  The good news is that your eggs are good!

    I hope your F/U goes well on the 18th.  Keep us posted!

  • Sorry you have to go through getting those testing results at all.  Hopefully you get some answers or more guidance from the doc about what could have caused the loss and you can get on the road to fixing it.

  • so sorry for your loss. that must have been a difficult phone call. great news about being chromosomally normal though. hope you and your doc are able to find a way to make your uterus cooperate :) all the best to you and your family.

    I know you must be gowing through such a hard time right now.  I hope this news turns into a blessing for you - that the issue is simple to resolve and that you have a beautiful baby in your arms soon. (HUG)

  • Thanks everybody for your kind words.  I know that there is good news in there that this probably means my eggs are ok.  It was just so hard to hear that the baby was genetically normal, it felt the same as it did when I found out the heart had stopped and it's so upsetting to think that I should be entering second tri right now with a healthy baby.

    choirgirl--L was actually pretty nice about it.  She asked lots of questions about how I was feeling and sleeping and even shared her own m/c experience.  She's still not my favorite, but I think she handled this situation pretty well.
