Looks like we had a chemical pregnancy, so I thought I'd join you ladies over here.

Little bit about us...I'm Lindsey 21 married to DH Simon 22 since March 2007, have been TTC #1 since then as well. We're currently on cycle #14 (I have short cycles) we're not TTC this cycle, waiting till #15 for the Femara.

Here's some info from the docs' appt yesterday...
well....the RE did a transvaginal ultrasound, said my uterus looks good as does my left ovary, but my right ovary on the other hand....he said it looks like it's ready to ovulate which doesn't make sense, since you just got your period...so we're going to wait till your next period to start the Femara. When you get your period again call back and we'll do another ultrasound to check this out again. Man I was soooo bummed I wanted to start the Femara this cycle!!! I was hoping and wanting to join the Oct. DDC, but not now!!

Then he checked DH's sperm under a microscope, his basic semen anaylsis and said they look great and let us look at them too! That was cool. Dh was def. proud of his lil swimmers!

Then....I mentioned about the faint positive HPT I got 3 days ago, my chart and temps and late period and said that's common, but then a light bulb went off and he's like that makes sense now with your right ovary and said that we had an early miscarriage and that it explains my right ovary. Which was devasting to hear a doc confirm we lost a baby

Other good news is...he didn't charge us!!!!! OMG we were so thankful and surprised!! We saved $350!!!!

So we decided we're not going to try this cycle at all, use condoms when BD jsut incase we got pg again and the same scenario happens. We don't want it to be a facious cycle all over again. So I hope and pray that come Feb we can finally start the Femara and get a BFP on the first try!!! Please God let that happen, let cycle #15 of trying be THE cycle!!!

I asked about the progesterone check and he said once I get pg he prescribes progesterone anyways that's why he doesn't check it! So that's exciting

I have major mixed feelings....I'm so bummed we have to wait another cycle and we don't get an October baby. (I hope we have a baby for 2008 is over, that's the new deadline, last year it was to get pg before 2007 is over) I'm down and emotionally torn over the fact we lost a lil one But I'm hopeful for cycle #15!!

Today I had my blood work done as well.

Just wondering how many of you ladies have had a chemical?? And how are you handling and how did you handle it?? It's still really hard for me...I had about 4 major melt downs yesterday crying for hours on end, DH left so bad. I feel like another one is coming on as well. I hope this is normal reaction for a chemical. (I can't decide whether or not to add a miscarriage/chemical/angel blinkie to my siggie.)

I have never had a chemical pregnancy, and hope I do not have one this cycle, but i am VERY sorry for your loss

Its perfectly normal to have several meltdowns, etc.... mine went on for months.

I hope you get a BFP asap and have a 2008 baby!!!

((HUGS))

[LindsLuvsSi]

Thanks! I see you're in CA too!

[woohoo502]

I'm sorry to see you over here, Lindsay. But, this is a great group of ladies! The more time that passes after your loss, the better it gets, although I still have days every now or then where I get sad. I hope the fertility treatments you are going to do work quikcly and you get your sticky bean before the end of 2008!!!

Hi Linds *waves*
Sorry weve had to see each other over on this board.To my knowledge I havent had a chemical pregnancy but its still a loss to you, dont see no reason why you cant add an angle/loss blinkie to your siggie.
The sad thing about chemical pregnancies is they happen so frequently, most people dont notice them as they just pass for a heavy or late AF but for people like us who are TTC every change in our cycle is noticed.
Sending you lots of hugs, Im here if you need a shoulder (well a virtual one) to cry on or to chat

I kinda know you from TTC#1, but welcome over here, though I wish you didn't have to be here. Any loss is a loss no matter how long you were pg, and I'm sorry you had to have one. I've never had a chemical, I made it to 12w with my pg.

[LindsLuvsSi]

Thanks everyone! You're all soo sweet!!

[Lv2Mommy]

[LindsLuvsSi]

Hi Lindsey, sorry about your loss. Hopefully all will go well the next time around!!

[Danica]

Hi Lindsey. I am sorry you lost your little one. You are allowed to mourn. You were pregnant. Doesn't matter how long you got to carry the baby, whether is be 1 day or 9 months, it still hurts. HUGS

I am glad you found your way over here. I hope that we can be joining a DDC together in a couple months. Good Luck.

Lindsey,
Welcome to the board, you will enjoy it here as everyone is very supportive. I am sorry you had to join us as no loss is ever easy. I too had a hard time conceiveing my first after Dh and I got married. We started trying 6 months after we got married and tried for a whole year before I was finally put on Clomid. We tried for 3 months after that and we were both ready to give up and take a break for a while when low and behold we were pg. So hang in there it will come when you least expect it. Good luck with the Fermara even though I don't know what it is, but hopefully it does the trick!
