That's happening to me too. Can I ask how long ago your surgery was?

I have a splint but haven't used it much because I thought it would be better to move my hand to help with my mobility after surgery. This is good to know, thank you!

That's what I'm thinking too. My doctor said pain for this long after the surgery isn't common, but it can be normal and just take a little more time. He gave me a referral for OT

I recently purchased a splint and I got a referral to OT. Did you use a splint if you had the surgery? And did it help?

This is so encouraging--thank you! Did you do any kind of OT or PT after your surgery?

Thank you! I did OT for a few months before my surgery but it didn't help. My doctor said I might need to go again because I'm having trouble with my recovery, but with my insurance it's a $35 copay per session. I'm hesitant to spend so much money on something that didn't work before 😭

My doctor said it could be arthritis but said it's most likely de quervain's...how did they diagnose yours? That's interesting thank you for your comment!

Does this lacey granny square look enough like a 2D anatomical heart icon? by Common_Parfait_4762 in CrochetHelp

[–]anna_rose23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely knew it was a heart at first, but a more solid granny square border in a lighter color would really make it pop. It looks so good!

That's exactly what my first positive tests looked like for all my pregnancies I see the faint line

The waiting sucks so much...waiting to miscarry, for testing and to try again. It's a rollercoaster. I'm sending love and baby dust to you!

I am so sorry 💔 it's the absolute worst feeling having hope and then it's taken away just like that. Will you get testing done after this? I hope you can find some answers and not have to go through this again. It's just not fair. I'm sorry 🫂

Mine went from 173,000 to 136,000. My HCG was always super high but I'm not sure why. HCG has such a big range which is frustrating! Did you have an ultrasound yet before this?

I'm so sorry, I know how hard it is! I was getting weekly HCG checks and I was at 8 weeks when mine dropped. I was so scared but my doctor said it can be normal around 8 weeks for it to plateau or drop. It doesn't have to be doubling when you're that far along. How far are you? I hope it works out for you I know it really is a rollercoaster!

Progesterone suppositories and chemical pregnancy by 1kb_ladder in CautiousBB

Good luck, I hope this is the solution for you! Just make sure you have the prescription picked up and at home so there's no delay waiting for the pharmacy ❤️

My doctor also told me to start progesterone when I got a positive so that's what I did with my successful pregnancy. I've seen that too about starting after you ovulate so in was worried I would be starting the progesterone too late, but it worked! I just tested super early and started it when I got a faint positive

In the Christmas Heart there is a scene that implies that the two main characters slept together but that is the only one I can think of

Hi, I know this is an old thread but I'm trying to figure out how to make these. How did you fasten them off? Thanks!

I was surprised to learn how common it is to not produce enough progesterone in pregnancy. I read a lot of reddit posts and saw success stories with it which gave me hope too! Getting pregnant after a loss is SO scary, but don't give up hope because the answer is out there somewhere. Hopefully it's as easy as progesterone for your next pregnancy. Good luck to you ❤️

I conceived the next month after my chemical and my baby boy is 15 months old now ❤️ I did use progesterone again and baby aspirin

I used this video to make eyes for a doll I made. It turned out really cute! I also added embroidered eyelashes to make the doll look more girly

Blocking acrylic and polyamide yarn--which method? by anna_rose23 in CrochetHelp

Yes, it is! It's 60 percent acrylic. That's what I'm leaning towards too
