TTC after miscarriage/loss

So so sorry a.girl. Hopefully though this third loss triggers lots of medical support and help for you to move forward xxx.

So sorry for your loss a.girl. It hurts so much in everyway. I'm just reaching the end of my 3rd miscarriage although the second was a chemical so they don't count that....still counts to me though. I'm waiting to hear the results of the genetic testing and hoping that I caught the right thing and my specialist has recommended that I have testing for antiphospholipid. It's just a blood test I think...has anyone else had this done? Also, has anyone had the genetic testing on 'tissue'? I was wondering how long it look for the results to come back. I was 8 weeks but baby was 4 days behind my dates then heart had stopped beating on follow up scan. First day back at work yesterday resulted in me breaking down every time I saw a very pregnant colleague and I was sent home mid shift. Huge hugs a.girl x

How you doing a.girl? Managed to seethe doc yet? Are you going to wait it out or have misoprstol/d&c??

Phoofy I think you deserve a hug too
Sure is hard seeing pregnant people especially with what you've been through. I've only had one miscarriage (&may it be the last!!!) and I'm finding it hard enough. I have such a desire to be pregnant and a new baby it's almost driving me insane! I'm sure they do testing for the third miscarriage don't they to check chromosomal defects etc. a lovely lady in my 'was' due in group also had a missed miscarriage. She said she had her previous ones tested as she'd had several miscarriages and had trisomy16. So just unfortunate genetic defects I think? Sorry don't know too much about it all. I just hope a.girl is ok, must be so hard, the poor thing. Hope the doc has some certain answers for you so you can be confident with the next pregnancy. Thinking of you xxxx

Oh, phoofy, that's so hard. I had a few moments of wanting to punch every preg woman I saw. So not like me!!!! I think I had that blood test done in the states, along with many others. I haven't had any products tested though.

I'm ok. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. I had the scan yesterday and told the lady she couldn't shock us as we knew it was baf news. But she did... she said there was a perfectly size bub with a heartbeat of 110 in there!!! Wtf?!?! How can my hcg doubling time be 335 hours but there be something still ticking away. Doc said from the lack of hcg rise it wasn't viable :-( so I have no idea what is going on? Part of me is hoping that the lab forgot to put a 1 in front of the 8500. The scan lady thought the bleed was just implantation and could see where it came from. Ahhhhh. I know I should be over the moon, but if this is still an ill fated preg, then tjis is just doubly unfair!

Omg!!,! This is amazing news!! Do you think maybe they completely stuffed up with the bloods and gave you someone else's results? I'd be asking for more bloods if I was you. X

Omg a.girl that is sooo exciting. That's the first heart beat you've seen?? I really hope there was just an error at the lab or maybe you're one of the few ppl who's hcg doesn't double!!!! My friend had that and she's 30weeks now

WOW a.girl that is the best news I've heard all day. Im stoked it sounds alot better than what it could have been. Hope you sail through the rest of the pregnancy and it's all fine!!

gosh a.girl how crazy is that. Fingers crossed for you. Yes couldn't think of anything worse than 2 week wait. Hopefully it goes quick for you.

A.girl, this news is amazing!!! :) It must be stressful, but hang in there and try be positive!
I have mentioned on these forums before a story about my friend, and I will tell it again...
My friend was told her first pregnancy was not viable as her HCG actually dropped around week 6, she was told to prepare to miscarry, but she never did, and that pregnancy resulted in a now bubbly and beautiful 4yr old girl who is full of personality and about to start school :)
A heart beat is amazing, and once a heart beat is detected, many doctors will say HCG shouldn't be looked at anymore. Because although HCG levels can be a good guide, they are at times misleading! This is one of those times x
So happy right now xx
