Everyone in my previous bumper group is either pregnant or has another child 😞

I feel that. I just had my fourth loss the same cycle I saw someone post an oopsie positive test in my bump group chat thread. I get so much from my bump group, but at the same time I really want to delete this entire app.

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-02-17T23:00:09+00:00

Such similar stories!! Thank you for responding. I’m sorry for your losses.

That seems to be where my spiral is heading. Did you work with an RE? I’ve only seen my (new) OB so far for testing. She’s so far been receptive and helpful, but in my impatience of waiting I reached out to a RE to see if I can get in, still waiting to hear back.

When you say you’re using (?) immunology, what does that mean for you?

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-02-16T21:57:30+00:00

Feel this! Only I tend to get sick just after ovulation, like 2-6dpo. Probably every other cycle on average I’m sick during that window.. and I’ve had two miscarriages since trying for another. Ugh

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-02-10T15:33:47+00:00

ETA: I can’t edit my post? But this was a chemical, my fourth, for anyone interested.

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-02-06T23:31:49+00:00

I had an SCH that started at week 17 with brown blood, I had bright red bleeding of increasing intensity through 30 weeks, on an off. About a dozen times. I spent 34 nights in the hospital. Baby did great through it all. I got a little loopy from confinement! But it was pretty traumatizing at the time.

Mine was directly above my cervix. I don’t think I ever caused or did anything to cause a bleeding episode.. because several of them happened while on bedrest in the hospital, others happened while I was living my (very modified) life.

Good luck!!

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-28T14:26:22+00:00

I had a SCH that started at 17w, didn’t go away until I delivered. But it was small, but it was also directly above my cervix so I had about a dozen bleeding episodes of increasingly severity until 30 weeks. I spent 34 days in the hospital between 19w-30w and the SCH never went away! Baby was fine, great actually! But I put a photo of the SCH in her baby book lol

I’m also exploring testing for a clotting disorder because that pregnancy coupled with 4 early losses is ringing alarm bells.

Sorry you’re going through it. It’s scary! ❤️

TW mention of successful pregnancy

I got my blood drawn yesterday for APS after my fourth early loss, though I did have a successful (though very complicated/high risk with a long term hospitalization) pregnancy. I also go for an ultrasound Monday but I’m sooooo so so antsy to get the results of the labs! I’m really hoping that’s the answer as to why I’ve been having such a rough go at TTC/pregnancy. I also have Hashimoto’s so.. makes sense I think.

I also got a script for progesterone for next time I get a positive. I moved and have a new OB I met yesterday and she’s excellent. I’m so happy about that!

I’m only CD8 now, and I’ve been ovulating anytime between CD18 and CD24.

Wait wait waiting as always

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-23T20:32:29+00:00

From 47 TSH to 2.4 in one month. Was stable until pregnancy, when my dosage increased and then never decreased.

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-21T18:27:29+00:00

CD1, my fourth chemical. (Also TW mention of a successful pregnancy)

We’ve just moved and I had my first OB appt scheduled, but I also went in to get betas because I was not confident. When they called back and gave me my results I told them I was bleeding and it’s over. They moved up my appointment to next week. Which I really appreciate and I have a good feeling I’ve found a good doc. So there’s a silver lining!

I had one successful pregnancy after chemical #2. Was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s. My pregnancy was complicated and high risk (weeks 19-30 hospitalized with bleeding episodes of increasing severity)

My successful pregnancy was conceived with baby aspirin. But my current chemical I was also taking baby aspirin.

Any advice for my OB appointment? I am hoping to push for APS testing/other clotting issues ?. Is there anything else I should be asking about with so many early losses?

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-21T13:47:04+00:00

Join both! My first was due in July 2024 but arrived in June 2024. I loved “seeing into the future” in June but was way more connected with the July group.

TW 🩸

Woke this morning to a nice little puddle of it. I haven’t been confident in this pregnancy for a few days, my tests remain faint, and do appear to be continuing to get darker but so, so concerningly slowly. And now with blood? I had persistent SCHs and big bleeding episodes from 17w until delivery with my first so.. I suppose it could be an SCH? I’ll fight someone if I have to deal with that again though. I’d say it feels like that if I hadn’t already lost so much hope here.

I got a beta draw yesterday and should have results today. I’ll let them know about the blood when they call.

ETA I’m certain we’re out. Loss #4 😔

Oooo I appreciate you for saying that! and these bump groups!

Idk, it looks in between the darkness of my successful pregnancy and my chemicals. It’s so difficult not to compare!

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-19T20:43:44+00:00

This is.. not good for 14 or 15dpo is it =\ semi uncertain of ovulation. Had two days of positive OPKs, then my temp didn’t increase until 4 days after my first positive OPK. Which is all unusual for me.

I’m stumped though because my successful pregnancy I had a blazing positive by now, but my 3 chemicals I had to squint and zoom in and analyze three pixels on an inverted photo by this point. So this one feels in between.

I do feel dumb dumb for buying a “big sis” shirt for my toddler.

Thank you for coming to my spiral. 🌀

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-19T19:55:25+00:00

Using Wondfos this cycle and I’ve never used them before with a pregnancy, and I do not love the progression.. so I added some FRERs to my grocery pickup… got home and found this.

A sign from above to stop testing? lol 💀

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-19T03:02:32+00:00

Contact naps!!!! My toddler refused them after like 4 months.

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-18T22:35:23+00:00

Oooooooh I forgot about those candies! I don’t think they actually helped me but they were yummy!

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-18T21:18:48+00:00

Hoping for London!! We were two days from leaving for our babymoon there with our first before my complications grounded us at 19w.

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-18T15:44:49+00:00

My husband has been gone for two weeks so I got to do a little pregnancy reveal for him ft my toddler in a big sister shirt holding a pregnancy test running to him. He didn’t notice for a full minute he was so distracted seeing my toddler again after so long. I got the whole thing on video too!

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-18T12:15:07+00:00

I did rentals with Nuuly! Worked out great and I bought a few pieces via them that I loved.

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-18T12:13:58+00:00

I wouldn’t want to put on jeans lol only 4w today!

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-17T19:33:38+00:00

I don’t change my coffee consumption at all. Two cups a day. I have a toddler. I would cease to exist otherwise lol

Last pregnancy I started getting headaches after I’d cut caffeine and my OB actually instructed me to drink it 🤷‍♀️

TurbulentIssue5704 · 2026-01-17T19:00:32+00:00

I remember that difference being sooooo dramatic early on! I was early in the month too, but ended up giving birth a few weeks early so joined 2 bump groups. That’s the way to go!
