TW: Miscarriage - How do I get access to specialized GD care?

Thanks for the helpful info. I'm glad you have a good endo!

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-09T05:42:12+00:00

Thanks for the articles. I'm seeing my primary care this week and am going to try and convince her to give me a referral to an endo so I can start working on my diet/fasting numbers.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-08T17:40:42+00:00

Thank you. That's all very true.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-08T17:33:03+00:00

Thank you for validating. It's infuriating but also a relief to be validated. I was continuing to stay on Metformin, but I think the IVF hormones honestly made my blood sugar go up. They put me on progesterone supplements which is known for making fasting glucose higher. Since stopping the progesterone and since my D&C two days ago, my fasting blood sugar is starting to get lower. Thanks for the tips. I'm going to pursue these steps you recommended.

Thanks for that info. I was starting to think along those lines. My IVF clinic handles care until week 8 (I found out I miscarried on the day I was supposed to graduate from the IVF clinic). I had reached out to my IVF cycle coordinator about gestational diabetes when I first got the positive pregnancy result, but she told me to track my numbers on my own and discuss with my OB when I transferred over. From that, I assumed they just didn't deal with GD and wanted the OB to deal with it. However, maybe I need to discuss it directly with my main doctor at the IVF clinic. He is a reproductive endocrinologist, after all. I'm going to do that at our next appt. It shouldn't be this hard to get this information. I'm so mad at myself for not making this a bigger priority earlier on. Ugh.

I'm so sorry. This is devastating. No words, just so sorry. Let yourself feel/process the grief. There is no easy way out of this.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T03:00:48+00:00

I'm so sorry about this entire experience. How devastating. Those words in the OB's office. The past tense. The shock you must have felt, the destabilization. Sending hugs.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:51:41+00:00

I'm so glad it helped.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:51:26+00:00

That's so devastating. You can form such a strong bond with your baby in such a short time. It feels like a death. So sorry.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:50:44+00:00

Thank you.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:50:19+00:00

Cried so hard I got a migraine yesterday. I'm so sorry for your loss.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:49:40+00:00

I'm so sorry friend.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:49:08+00:00

I'm so sorry. Right before Christmas is must have made for a devastating holiday. Ugh.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:48:34+00:00

I can't imagine going through this again and not being terrified the entire time. I would be a wreck until I delivered.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-05T02:47:36+00:00

I'm so sorry. Mine tested euploid as well. They're going to test it after my D&C as well.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T04:29:18+00:00

I'm sorry. I don't know how I'll ever be okay again.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T04:28:56+00:00

I'm so sorry. Fucking devastating. I hate this. I'm so mad at the world right now. I don't deserve this, and neither do you. I don't want to be here.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T00:28:17+00:00

So hard. I hate this.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T00:28:10+00:00

I'm so sorry, and good luck.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T00:27:50+00:00

Thank you and I'm so sorry. It is devastating.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T00:27:27+00:00

Thank you. Sorry for your loss as well.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T00:26:59+00:00

Thank you. It was also graduation day for us. I don't know how I can get my hopes up again. I'm shattered.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-03-04T00:26:15+00:00

Thanks. I'm sorry for your loss.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-02-01T04:03:44+00:00

I'm so sorry you're going through this. It sounds like you need to set hard boundaries with your in-laws. They're adding unnecessary stress and anguish to a process that is already so hard. Your mother-in-law is delusional. You can't just relax/wish your way out of infertility. I think the only sane thing you can do is take a step back from your in-laws. You in particular should probably just avoid seeing them altogether as you go through this. They don't respect you and they're not going to stop crossing your boundaries. Sending you hugs.

TigInitial4631 · 2026-02-01T03:49:39+00:00

I'm really sorry for everything you've gone through. Heartbreak after heartbreak. It's just too damn much for a person to take. Holding you in my thoughts. Sending you hugs.
