TTC After a Loss

Re intro...Lurky-lurkerson?

Hi ladies.  Ive been lurking for about a month now, posting here and there.  I just wanted to re-intro.  Original intro was back in July after my first MC.  I would like to rejoin if you'll have me, as I had another MC last month.  It sucks, but I think DH and I are on the road to getting some answers.  Had some testing done on the gestational sac after last MC (pathology was normal but there was a chromosomal issue), got a repeated loss blood panel drawn (waiting on results), and have an appt with an RE in a week.  *sigh*  TTA till February is my best guess.

Well enough about me.  I hope some will remember my name though admittedly, I can only get on about once every day to once every couple of days (you can see by my post count Im still a newbie).  I want all the ladies here to know how much respect I have for all of you, and recognize many of you who have provided support to me in the past.  Anyway thats all for now.  

Oh PS...  Im on CD38 after my last MC; so like 5 1/2 weeks and no period.  This is torture!!!

  • I am very sorry for both of your losses. I wish that no one ever had to come here in the first place but especially not a second time. Hope to get to know you better!

  • Thx NB, I will try to post more this time.  Sometimes I feel that my life has gotten so wrapped up in TTC that there isnt much more about me thats interesting to report, LOL!!  And though Ive had two losses, I realize I am still very new to this journey and am at times fearful of where it will lead...

    Here are a few things I DO know that I didnt mention in my OP: during first MC I was diagnosed with a bicornuate uterus.  Doc that discovered the MMC said he didnt feel that this caused the MC was confident that my uterus was "roomy enough" to support a baby for 9 mos.  I now believe (after doing some research) that I am much more likely to have a septated uterus which would explain the MC's, as bicornuate is pretty rare.

    So I am pretty sure the RE will want me to have a hysteroscopy to see if thats the case, and if so, the septum will likely need to be removed.

    Which reminds me for all that may be reading this: has anyone had a hysteroscopy, a septate removed from their uterus, or both, and how uncomfortable is it?

    Thx again for the welcome NB.  ;-)

    I have not had experience with the above but I remember reading a post from someone that did.  I wanted to say how sorry I was for your losses and that you are returning to the board.
