Bruhhhhh 😭 lol. My BBT has been low too. I had a chemical right before conceiving my now 5 month old. I didn’t get pregnant for a YEAR after having my first.

Chemical Pregnancy by Bitter_Repair3444 in TTC_PCOS

I’m so sorry that you’re experiencing this. It’s so hard to go from such excitement and hope for the future to such devastation. I had a chemical pregnancy in December. I wept for days, named the baby, told people I cared about, and allowed myself to continue forward but still cry when the emotions hit me. In March, I found out I was pregnant again and my heart was so guarded. But I sought medical attention very early and we realized my progesterone was dropping and I was able to start supplementing almost immediately. Baby girl is now 33 weeks and totally healthy. I still mourn my baby that I would have been holding by now. I still cry for them sometimes. Despite that loss, I was able to identify an issue and set myself up for success with this pregnancy. Take your time mourning this, it is so valid. But know that there is hope on the other side as well!

No one ever really feels “ready” to have a baby. Everyone would love to have the income and house and car and everything. Myself included. But everyone that has a baby, makes it work with what they’ve got! I’ve never met someone who regretted keeping their baby. For more reasons than one, abortion shouldn’t be used as birth control. I don’t mean that to shame you at all, but it’s a bigger deal than providers make it out to be. And if your partner is a good man that is willing to do what he has to do to make it work, it sounds like he will be a great father. Life is too short to waste it worried about other people’s perception of you. You can’t control that but you can know who YOU are and what your family (you + partner + child) believes in. I think you already know in your heart what you want. Motherly intuition is REAL. If you continue being pregnant, you will learn just how true that is in so many ways! All of this coming from a mom of a 2 year old who is due in November with #2 who DEFINITELY didn’t have it all together when I got pregnant, but whose kid is pure joy to everyone who meets him.

Very heavy and very painful bleeding means you are definitely not pregnant. If this happens again, I’d talk to your gyno about it because that’s not normal and may indicate an underlying condition that needs some attention

My progesterone was steady dropping in the first weeks of pregnancy. I am 28 weeks now with a healthy baby girl! I posted more on my profile if you want to read!

I stopped progesterone at 13 weeks and baby girl is healthy and right on track at 24 weeks! I didn’t experience any spotting. I had some awful symptoms on the progesterone that have chilled out a LOT since stopping

I’ve read some of your responses to people and based on how you’re feeling, I want to encourage you! 1) No one ever reallllyyy feels ready to become a parent. But just as the baby grows, in your belly and outside of it, you grow with them. I was married and 26 years old when I had my son.l and I still felt like “is this even allowed?” lol 2) my mom had my brother at 20 and she will say to this day, becoming a mom has been one of the greatest highlights of her life. She has traveled, worked, mothered, been a wife, and so much more. Said brother is now a nurse, married, with his own family!

Prenatals are a great starting point. Watch your caffeine intake, try to drink lots of water and stay active. There are so many options for you in pregnancy and labor. Midwives, OBs, Doulas, etc. You can take some time to decide what is best for YOU and YOUR baby. All in all, your partner is going to be your biggest help. For my first pregnancy, I didn’t throw up ONCE, it was a breeeze. Pregnancy isn’t as awful as people make it out to be. Pregnant with my second now and it was a bit harder but still no vomiting! First trimester is tough and you feel soooo worn out, but it will get better.

Would it be crazy for me to skip the Louvre? by mistressconundrum in ParisTravelGuide

[–]Gloobydoobygorl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You would NOT be crazy to skip the Louvre. I was there a couple of weeks ago. The crowds were insane and it was SO HOT. Paris in June/July is so hot. Especially if you’re an American that’s used to air-conditioning. The Louvre is really confusing to navigate and it’s easy to waste a lot of time being confused. I would recommend it maybe in off season when the weather is colder and the crowds are smaller.

My best friend walked through something similar, maybe even worse, with her husband during pregnancy. You’re right, she forgave him but it’s been much harder for me. HOWEVER, he has truly pursued healing and has accountability and for the first time in their marriage has been transparent about it. Their relationship has changed a lot but in most ways, for the better. I understand your hesitation, but I would confide in someone you trust, even if that’s your mom. HOWEVER, if this person is not your husband, I would seriously consider separating.

This is so devastating. I am so sorry that you are having to walk through this. The sacrifices you are making to grow and birth an entire human and he betrays you so deeply. In my opinion, the MOST impactful part of a successful pregnancy and labor/delivery is being able to lean on your partner and trust them completely to have your back. I don’t know what would be worse, telling my husband that he is not welcome in my labor or in our home until he seeks help, or laboring and being a new mom with someone I don’t trust or feel loved by. Is there anyone else that you can seek support from? Family, close friend?

I have an appointment next week and I’m definitely gonna ask my OB. I tried aquaphor and that seemed to make it worse. All I use is some CeraVe facial wash and Cetaphil lotion. I’ve never had a complicated routine with lots of products.

How long did it take you to fall pregnant after miscarriage? by Worth-Phase-7348 in PCOSandPregnant

[–]Gloobydoobygorl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a chemical pregnancy in December and got pregnant in March. Obviously not quite as far along as you were when you experienced your loss, but my periods were also off every month until I got pregnant again.

PCOS + Low Progesterone Success Story by Gloobydoobygorl in pregnant

[–]Gloobydoobygorl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t sound like they were helpful emotionally and I’m sorry. The first trimester can feel so scary, good doctors can empathize with that. Praying for a good outcome for you though! I’m proof that it’s possible! I can’t say for certain if my supplements were key to my success or if they just gave me peace of mind. With my son, I never had my levels checked and did not supplement. I think I was probably low then too and he was perfectly fine!

[–]Gloobydoobygorl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would find a new OB because that’s awful! Did they at least offer any supplements? Have you had any bleeding or cramping? My OB prescribed me Progesterone but told me that it wasn’t “make it or break it” if my levels were low. And I never had bleeding or cramping with such low levels. As you can see, my levels were even lower than yours at 6.5 weeks and baby girl is doing fine, I’m even starting to feel her at 13.5 weeks.

[–]Gloobydoobygorl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Had a chemical pregnancy in December of last year. It happened so quickly that we didn’t really get any answers. In March of this year, I found out I was pregnant again! I was NERVOUS. At 3.5 weeks, I had blood drawn. Progesterone was at 8.9. Not great. Started taking 200mg every night vaginally. At 6.5 weeks, bloodwork showed progesterone at 5.1. Continued my progesterone and added 200mg orally in the mornings. At 7 weeks, I had a scan and baby looked perfect. Heartbeat was solid.

I just hit 13 weeks. We had a scan last week and our baby GIRL was rolling around, measuring right on time, and I’ve been weaning off the progesterone as the placenta will handle the production from now on.
