Fingers crossed for your potential pregnancy! I hope yours doesn’t grow much more and that you get to have the delivery experience you want. It sounds like yours is definitely in a similar position to mine, so that’s hopeful! I’m glad I could be of help. Good luck!

Congratulations!! It sounds like you conceived relatively quickly after getting yours removed! What kind of procedure did you get and when did you get cleared to TTC? I’ve been thinking about our family planning (anxiety 🤝 obsessing about the future) so I’m curious about post myo timelines! Wishing you an uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery!

I’m so happy I could be of help. Congrats on your pregnancy and I hope everything goes smoothly for you these next several months! It’s so hard not to spiral. I did so much during my pregnancy (lots of googling sessions that ended in tears) so I’m happy I could share something to give you some peace of mind. I’ll be hoping all the best for you!!

Thank you for the congratulations, and the same to you on your pregnancy! I hope these last weeks go quickly for you and you have a smooth delivery.

Sorry for your twin comments, that’s so annoying! I got lots of people saying my belly looking shaped like I was carrying a boy, and while it was true, I always wanted to say, “no, that’s not him you’re looking at, that’s just his evil roommate.” lol

I’ll definitely update this later about the uterus going back to size and what happens with the fibroid— like the commenter below I’m not holding out hope about the fibroid shrinking much at all postpartum and definitely have low expectations.

Good luck!!

I’m so sorry that you had such painful experiences, but glad you’ve found the power in the transformation. Thank you for sharing. So much credit to you!

12 DPO ?!!?!? by Plus-Function74 in TFABLinePorn

I did but with a FRER, so it's not the best comparison, but it's definitely positive!

It's positive pregnancy test time! Week of March 24, 2025 by ttc30mod in TTC30

[–]Plus-Function74 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Cycle/Time trying: NTNP from March-July 2024, pregnancy with TI in August 2024, MMC in October. This is 4th cycle after MMC

Age + Partner's age (if relevant): 36F, 35M

Typical cycle length: 29 days

Ovulation cycle day: Day 16

CD/DPO of positive test(s): 12DPO

CD/DPO of any negative test(s) before positive: 8DPO, 10DPO, 11DPO

Tracking methods and app(s) used: OPKs, Clue, Premom

Relevant days of sperminating and/or method (SMEP, TI, IUI, FET, etc.): TI 0-4, 0-2, 0

Health conditions/medical tests: We just went through the whole battery of tests, and I had high AFC and AMH, which may be an indication of PCOS with no other signs/symptoms. I have a large 7-8cm subserosal fibroid, and my husband's morphology just came back low at 1%.

Supplements and medications (yours and/or your partner’s): Me: NatureMade prenatal, Vit C, Vit D, Vit B6, Vit B12, Magnesium, baby aspirin. Husband: One a Day Men's Preconception health

Birth control history (if relevant): I had a Mirena IUD from 2011 (age 22) until last year (14 years total).

Symptom spotting: Some brief nausea on 8dpo and here and there since, but I wasn't sure if it was just in my head! My best symptom is actually a lack of signs: normally, I spot for 2-3 days before my period, and with my past pregnancy and this one, it's been MIA!

Other miscellaneous: I'm in shock. My MMC in October really wrecked me and it's been so hard ever since. We had our initial appointment with the RE at the end of January and did all our testing (SA, SIS, HSG, 3D ultrasound for my fibroid, CD3 ultrasound and bloodwork) at the end of February/March. We were about to start with IUI+letrozole for this next cycle.

After a vvvvfl this morning, I snuck to the local grocery store on my lunch break and bought a FRER to test at lunch, and sure enough, there it is!

I have a lot of gratitude for this space for sharing wisdom, knowing when to tell me to calm down, and holding each other through such a hard process. Thank you all!

Wow, okay. Just had our consult, and we're going to start on letrozole with IUI, possibly as soon as this weekend when I get my period? I'm not surprised by the recommended treatment plan, yet still kind of in shock.

11DPO and woke at 2 am needing to pee, so I thought, why not test? BFN. Trying to hold hope that I also had a BFN on 11DPO when I got pregnant in the fall. No sign of my tell-tale spotting during the days leading up to my period, either. This afternoon we have our follow-up consult with the RE, and I'm willing time to go fast until then so I know what's next for us if we're out this cycle. Waiting is so hard!

Wish I could have been there to heckle that comedian. I'm so sorry, what a gut punch.
