Pregnant after a Loss

Intro and need some advice

Hi ladies! I am so happy to be here and really hoping to stay. I have a 19 month old son (born via super-emergency csection) and dh and I decided to try for another in January. Got pregnant right away, lost it at 6.5 weeks. Waited one cycle, got pregnant right away, lost it at 4.5 weeks. My doctor put me on baby aspirin and gave me a prescription for progesterone suppository to start the day after I ovulate. Here's my issue: she told me to wait this month out but we slipped up once - it was literally 7 days before I ovulated and I can't even believe his guys lived that long. We must be ridiculously fertile - which is wonderful except that I keep losing them. I really meant to skip this month so I didn't even pick up my prescription and now I'm sitting here in disbelief that I'm pregnant. I am going to call my doctor first thing in the morning but I'm so worried about it happening again and I wish I hadn't been so careless. Have any of you ever heard of a progesterone shot? I'm wondering if that could boost my levels quicker than the suppositories. Please keep me in your t&p! Thanks SO much!

    I don't have any experience with progesterone so I'm afraid I don't have advice. But fx for you! And I also got pregnant this time with an oops during the last month of a 3 month wait. So you're not alone in mistakeville!

    I'm hoping that an oops baby is just really determined. Had to be a fighter, right? :)

    I'm mobile, so I can't see sigs.

    But how do you know when you ovulated--bbt charting or blood work is the only way to confirm ovulation. So if neither of these happened, you could have ovulated earlier than you thought, which explains how you got ku. Also, you really should be charting to confirm ovulation if you're to take progesterone---it can delay/prevent ovulation from happening if you havent ovulated before taking the progesterone.

    Also, I was to start progesterone after ovulation with this pregnancy, but I had a whacky cycle and didn't start the progesterone until I got my bfp. There's a lot of ladies instructed to start progesterone with a bfp, so try not to beat yourself up about this.

  • Congrats! I started my progesterone when I got my positive test, as opposed to starting it after ovulation. My previous OB had wanted me on it on cycle day 16 but he left the practice and my new OB didn't think that was necessary. I will be 9 weeks tomorrow, so it seems to be working!

    GL:)
  • I'm so sorry for your losses.


    Congrats on your pregnancy!

    Welcome and congrats! With this pregnancy I started progesterone on 9dpo. With DD's pregnancy I didn't start progesterone until 13dpo, two days after getting a BFP. The important thing now is to get your prescription filled and start taking it.

    You're not alone. We also had an oops moment...Was suppossed to wait 2 cycles and instead conceived about 2 1/2 weeks after my miscarriage before AF ever came. Praying for healthy babies for both of us!!

  • Thanks to everyone! I appreciate the support and I'm so happy to be here. I started the progesterone (200mg once every night) and still taking the baby aspirin. Dr checked my levels and hcg was 39 and prog was 25.5 which she said was great. Going back on Monday to check again. I'm really hoping this third time is the charm. Also, @kmw08 I do bbt chart so I do know the exact day I ovulated. I'm glad to hear a lot of you didn't start prog until after bft. I'm hoping since my levels were good yesterday this will just keep them where they're supposed to be. Who knows! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. :)

    Hey @goldengirl84‌! Our situations are very similar. I too have a 19 month old son and have had two losses since him. The first we know was a chromosomal abnormality, the second, we are not sure (wasn't enough tissue left for pathology). My drs chalked it up to being a fluke.. We had very little testing. When I got pregnant this time I begged for progesterone suppositories which they gave me a script for but once I tried to get them and realized how expensive they were, I decided against it. My drs really don't believe it is saves pregnancies. So far, so good. I'm 12 weeks and have my NT tomorrow. Good luck to u!!!!!

    Yep, another one here who got pregnant on the tail end of a wait. I waited 3 cycles but not QUITE three months. Hope we all have good happy endings! Yes, I know how that sounded, but whatever.
