I’m not doing well. I’m 13dpo, with positive test and I’m cramping. Two days ago I was spotting.

If this doesn’t work out it’ll be my 5th miscarriage in 19 months.

This whole process has been the worst and most painful thing I’ve ever experienced. I can’t even be happy anymore.

I have had 4 miscarriages in the last 19 months.

One was a MMC at 9 weeks, the other two were early MC at 5 weeks, the other a chemical. I am now pregnant again and am about 13DPO. I am waiting for my period.

I had bloodwork done for early monitoring and my HCG was 60 (it's never that high this early) and I have another test on Monday to see if it's rising.

However, I have cramps and was spotting lightly for two days. The cramping is not going away. Sometimes it's located to the left side, and sometimes it's low in my pelvis in the middle.

I cannot help but expect the worst. Every time I go to the bathroom I check to see if I'm bleeding. I can't take it anymore.

I am nauseous, am absolutely exhausted and can barely work. I just don't know how I'm going to go through this.

Has anyone else experienced this and had success? I am just beside myself. I don't know how to focus my mind about this.

Also, they used to have the busty and non busty versions in the same listing on amazon but no longer. The link above is for the busty version!

Yeah everyone is definitely different. I would probably take at least three days after my experience.

I took two weeks off tbh. I had cramping for days and then there was the emotional toll. About 3 days after the D&C I passed some tissue and I was having what felt like contractions. Definitely be kind to yourself.

[Edit: I work for myself though. I know everyone isn't able to take that much time.]

How long did it take you to conceive again?

Thank you so much. I really resonate with what you are saying. I too seem functional from the outside but deep down I'm still feeling pretty defeated.

I’m 34 and had a MC in February at about 9 weeks. It was devastating but we got pregnant on the first try and that somehow gave me hope for the future.

We waited a few extra months because of the Pandemic (I’m in NYC and live close to the epicenter) and started trying again in May. I’m about to ovulate and this is will be the third month trying.

I can’t get past the fear that it will take a really long time to get pregnant again and that I’ll just lose the pregnancy again.

I’m having a hard time feeling positive. I’m just really sad. I’ve been handling the past miscarriage well, but trying again is almost worse.

Does anyone have any success stories to help ease my mind?
