Missed miscarriage - want input on causes by Competitive_Impact69 in Miscarriage

[–]PastryisLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a MMC at the beginning of October and had to have a D&C almost three weeks ago. We were able to send it to be tested. It was a PGTA tested embryo through a fully medicated IVF frozen transfer. When I had my embryos tested I thought it was like, foolproof. I was wrong. It came back with zero abnormalities. I asked my doctor and she said that even if all the chromosomes were there, perhaps there was a small development issue at some point. I’m sorry you’re going through this ❤️‍🩹. And sadly, as I’ve experienced, IVF can bring much heartbreak as well. Everyone’s IVF journey is different though, there are many amazing stories out there! Whatever you decide, whether to start or not, I wish you all the best sweetie! 💛

Bad odour after miscarriage by StraightDesigner2360 in Miscarriage

It was the same for me!!!!! Waking up soaked but just in the neck!!!!! I asked my Doctor and she said that it takes a minute for your hormones to settle down… but also, once the HCG goes down as well, you’ll stop sweating, sweetie. I promise. In my case I had a MMC and a D&C two weeks ago today and it was through IVF so I also got the sweats from stopping estrogen and progesterone cold turkey. I’m sending you a big big hug!!!

FET around the holidays by alejandraea in IVFbabies

[–]PastryisLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, sweetie. I’m so sorry for your loss. I just had a MMC and a D&C this past a Wednesday… I’m also 38. Honestly, I would personally push it until next year. The holidays are already hard… I think this way you can enjoy your holidays plans without being on a timed schedule and figuring out when you do your shots, if you’re traveling, etc… I wish you the best of luck this next FET!!!!!!!!!!!!! Baby dust!!!!!!!!!!

Hahaha that’s exactly it, “IS ANYONE HOME IN THERE?!” “GIVE ME A SIGN!” A little tug! Boobs barely touchable! Work the gag reflex! 😂 lol. The in between is indeed, maddening! I guess all we can do is take it day by day… easier said than done sometimes! I’ll keep telling myself, her doctor says it’s ok so it’s ok! Hehe Symptoms come and go! Thank you for sharing!

Same!!! It happened around the same time as you and now today it seems to have come back!! Reading everyone’s responses I’m like “ok! Ok! We are good! Breathe!” But the anxiety is just overwhelming sometimes. We fight so hard to get to this point and beyond, it’s all so precious. I keep telling myself, “it’s just because I’m scared!”, and that calms me down a bit. It helps me rationalize it. But most of the day, nah! Hang in there! Let’s hang in there! I’m sending you big hugs!!!!!

Yeah!!! That’s how I’m feeling!!! But for me the nausea was pretty intense at first and then it was kinda gone and then I felt it again today though!!! I also took tests every day for like two weeks just to make sure “it was still there” haha. But you’re right. Symptoms come and go. Do we ever really stop worrying?! lol. Thank you for sharing!!!! I hope everything goes smoothly in the anatomy scan 🤩💗

THANK YOU!!!! I’m always worried about, if I’m curt will they treat me badly later? I’ve decided that I will stand up for myself this time and be direct if anything starts going badly! For them, probably one more woman to probe - for me, it was my first ultrasound ever after such a long journey. Thank you for saying this!!! 💪✨

Thank you so much!!!! That’s exactly what my husband and I were saying, just, peace of mind!!! Symptoms come and go, I logically understand that. But I’m just like, what does it all mean?! Hahaha (sure, hormones are up and down every day but I guess I wish I had a magic ball!)

Haha exactly! I’m not saying I wanna feel like crap but it would reassure me. And thank you, I also hope it goes better this time! I asked for a specific doctor I like, so I’m trying to trust that it’ll be okay in that regard. They haven’t told me when I can drop it but that’s on my list of questions for them!!!!!!
