  • Congrats!!!! Thats so amazing yay!!!! ;) So happy for you :-)
  • Thank you so much everyone. I am still in shock, and extra emotional right now dealing with the absolutely horrible reaction from my h, he did not take it well. I am going in for a urinalysis so they can make sure I don't have a uti on top of the yeast infection. If it's ok I'm going to stick around here at least until/if I get a heartbeat. I'm afraid to believe in it yet.
    Me:41, DH:41 Positive for MTHFR mutations- one copy C677T, one copy A1298C. One daughter born on Thanksgiving in 2013. Six losses.
  • I'm sorry about Hs reaction. I'm sure he's worried about your health. Good luck at the dr!
  • wow. I knew it. I just knew it. sorry about Hs reaction. That sucks. He's probably just afraid to believe.

  • Thanks so much you guys! I absolutely want to keep supporting you!

    Update: there was blood in my urine and my white cell count was high so I'm now being treated for a uti. I have to take Monistat 7 for the yeast infection and I start progesterone suppositories tonight as well, so that won't be fun but oh well. At least I'm getting what I need. I have an ultrasound in two weeks.

    My h was much better the latter part of the day. Texted that he loved me then came home to watch our daughter while I went to my appt. He gave me a hug and kiss before he left. FX everything will be ok and he can be happy about this pregnancy.

    Congrats!! WOOHOO!!!  FX for a sticky baby!!! I am so happy for you! Are they starting you on Lovenox?
    I never needed Lovenox, they just have me take baby aspirin. I'm glad I don't have to do injections!

  • Oh my effin goodness. I don't check in for one afternoon and this is what I miss!!!!!!!!
    I am over the moon excited for you.
    I knew your husband would come around. He is probably just as nervous as you.

    I know the PGAL board is not what it used to be but I will remind you of one of their mantras. "Today I am pregnant and I love my baby"
    I will send you all my good thoughts.

    I hope the next two weeks fly by and you get to see that wonderful heartbeat. Will you do betas before that?

    Again I am so so so happy for you.
    Congratulations.

    All welcome

  • I love seeing these posts! Congratulations to you @Guennie! Wishing you all the best:)
  • @hooligans4 I guess they don't do betas here. I'm strangely ok with it. I'm doing all I can to try to support the pregnancy, I started progesterone last night and I just ordered the really good more expensive prenatals I took with my daughter. Everything else is out of my hands. I have another test so I can poas one more time before my ultrasound. I think I'll save it for a day when I need the reassurance.

  • @Guennie - I was just curious, is it your OBGYN that recommends taking the progesterone after you find out you're on pregnant? Mine has me taking mine the day after ovulation, regardless of whether or not I'm pregnant. I was just curious.

    It was originally my RE, but my new OB/GYN says he would have wanted to do the same thing anyway even if I hadn't already been advised by the RE. For me it's just a precaution due to my age and losses, I never actually tested low. If you are low it makes sense to give your body the boost after O in case the lack of progesterone prevents you from getting pregnant.

  • Okay, thanks. That makes sense. I just hate having to take it right after O since my O days are so elusive. Is this your first time taking progesterone? Fingers crossed that everything goes wonderfully perfect for you! Can't wait to hear the updates :-)

    I took it through almost all of first tri with my daughter. I think I stopped at 11 weeks because everything was good and I was so sick of it.
