Re: ~*~*October Angel Mamas Check-in*~*~
Hi, My DD was May 24, 2013. My loss date is October 18, 2012
Im not sure what to say. My journey for children started in 1999. I have irregular periods aiding to my long journey. It took 3 years to finally get a BFP and I lost my first baby the next day. FF to 2011 and DH and I gave up on having an "oops" and started actively trying to get pregnant.It took us 11 months to get our BFP. We were so happy, I knew this baby was an answer to our prayers and would complete our family. I didnt feel as sick as I have with my other pregnancies but didnt think anything about it. I felt different but chalked that up to being older and it had been almost 5 years since I had been PG. The morning of my first OB appt I had a light red streaked when I wiped. I had spotted before so again I didnt think anything of it. Mentioning to my nurse I had spotted a little that morning, I was given an u/s and I was measuring 2 weeks behind. I was told not to worry, and to come back 2 weeks later. The day before my follow up I was on a much needed lunch break with a group of friends and I was feeling what I thought was CM. Nothing to worry about. I went home used the bathroom and what I thought was CM was blood. I was told my the nurse I called to stay in bed the rest of the day, to rest and come in in the AM. The bleeding only last 2 hours and was pretty light. I knew as soon as I got my U/S the next morning and looked on the screen it was bad news. My sac was empty and what we had seen 2 weeks ago wasnt there anymore. I was told my the U/S tech it was probably a blighted ovum.
I choice to use cytotec and went home. I thought everything was ok, I thought the pills worked. 6 days later I finally got myself out of the house, I felt a pop and a gush. I went to the bathroom and I passed a huge clot and was bleeding everywhere. an U/S showed I hadnt passed the sac and had alot of remaining tissue. I was rushed to the hospital and given an emergncy D&C because my temp was rising and my bleeding wasnt slowing down. Its been an incredibly hard journey physically and mentally. Im still waiting on AF and TTA. I start progestrone next week to induce my period and Im praying for my birthday I recieve AF. Then I can start my fertlility meds and pray that my next PG I am bringing home my rainbow baby.

Well an update from me:
I am just waiting for Dec. 19th to get here. I take hopefully my last blood draw. If it comes back still below <2 I will be cleared to finally TTC. I am so excited for it and a little worried I will become the crazy lady. But oh well, if it gets me my rainbow baby I don't really care.
QOTD:
What wouldn't I do. My Grandma and Aunt would be taken care of. My Aunt would get a jewelry shopping spree. I would buy a new house with a studio in the back and a gym! Pay off all my debts. Move my mom and step dad by me, get my sister a town house, have one spoiled little doggy and list goes on!
I've been in and out of here in the past, and feel like now is a good time to be more active, because I'm struggling more lately and need support. I'd love to offer my support to you ladies as well!
My edd was oct 15, 2012. It was a natural mc, and we've been TTC ever since. The last 9 months or so have brought irregular periods and no BFP. In January we're going back to the doc to talk about Chlomid and other options. I've been doing regular accupincture. I have had all the usual tests, and everything's normal. So, at this point the hardest thing is that there's no obvious reason why I'm not pregnant again. That is frustrating! I decided to stop charting partway through this cycle, because my temps where all over and it was just stressing me out more.
So, that's me and my check in!
I'm sorry we're all here I really hoped and expected that I'd be pregnant again by my EDD. I'm sure I'm not alone in that feeling!
