3 losses in years past, CP this month right off the bat back to TTC.

Status: WTO after CP

How are things going? What is something that you are struggling with and/or what is going well?

I have so much to be thankful for right now, but I’m having such a hard time with this because it’s triggering memories from my last loss — where I was miscarrying over a few weeks in the spring and then starting a full RE workup over the summer while sitting front row to a friend’s pregnancy succeeding while also losing her as a close friend. I have to keep telling myself this isn’t that, this isn’t that.

Any testing coming up/any recent results?

My OBGYN’s office moved my beta recheck to Friday so hoping it’s back to zero and this is clinically done.

Questions?

GTKY: Last recipe you made that you really enjoyed? We were all sick over Easter weekend and all we had energy for was a tube of Annie’s cinnamon rolls and a bacon/broccoli crustless quiche recipe I found — turned out to be a perfect brunch match.

37 and my husband is 45. One chemical pregnancy two additional losses.

Status: wfaf, after a d and c a few weeks ago.

How are things going? What is something that you are struggling with and/or what is going well? We found out the fact I am positive for lupus anticoagulant antibodies is the likely cause for the losses. My doctor wants me to take baby aspirin now, and start on lovenox immediately after a positive test. My last successful pregnancy I was on blood thinners already for an unrelated heart condition so that actually makes a lot of sense.

Any testing coming up/any recent results? We are doing genetic testing on Saturday.

Questions?

GTKY: Last recipe you made that you really enjoyed? The King Arthur cheesecake recipe! It was super easy and really good.

@virginiaham one of my close friends is also pregnant. I’m gifting her a crib mattress we have on hand that I was saving. It doesn’t look like we will need it anytime soon, and she needs it like now. It’s SO hard to be happy for her and a good friend while also dealing with my own grief.

@charmedlifex3 it’s so hard. I’m so glad you have an answer and hopeful for you moving forward with a good plan.
