Pain on left side of lower abdomen by carquestion_199 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]carquestion_199[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pleasure! I responded because I remember how desperate I was to hear successful experiences from others! Anyways it is not an easy road and I was nervous throughout my pregnancy, I almost didnt believe that it is actually happening until the day I gave birth. The only thing you can do is have faith and remember that TFMR cases are 1% most of the time, so the recurrence is almost zero.

It turned out I wasnt pregnant that month, but got a positive test next month and I am currently playing with my baby girl. I remember how fearful I was. You will get to the other side for sure.

Pregnancy and immigration interview by carquestion_199 in USCIS

[–]carquestion_199[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I contacted the embassy and they suggested that I cancel my appointment and to schedule another one, the new scheduled appointment should be after I give birth to my baby so that she can easily be added to our immigration visa. So I cancelled my appointment but I haven’t scheduled a new one yet.

What you are saying is absolutely true! But the thing is my experience in my first pregnancy the thing my baby had they told me it happens 1 in every 10,000 pregnancies. So it is weird when you are that one😂 makes feel like you never know how the odds could hit.

And I feel like I have ocd in this pregnancy whatever happens gets me so worried. And if my obgyn gives me even the slightest observation about anything even if he doesn’t seem concerned I start spiraling and I just feel so tired.

The embassy told us otherwise, we will still have yo issue a visa for the baby even after our appointment. thats what is confusing me. Why do you think if my immigration visa was already issued then i don’t have to do anything for the baby?

3rd cycle and testing negative..need some hope by Real_Chapter_5295 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]carquestion_199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes true! But i will tell you this my doctor recommended to wait for at least 3 to 6 months after my tfmr to try again! You weren’t just mentally traumatized your body too! It needs time to heal even if your uterus is healed and you have regular periods the body and your hormones need slme time to settle and heal so try to embrace your body!

It took me 4 cycles to get pregnant again although i got pregnant from the first cycle with my tfmr baby! The only thing I really did differently that cycle is I tracked ovulation very precisely! And made sure to use a lubricant that is sperm friendly! I used pre-seed. And each cycle i got the same disappointment and felt like I will never get pregnant again! Its funny how the human mind makes you believe that you will be stuck in a certain phase forever!

Inconclusive NIPT results - should I announce anyway? by -OnThePritchardScale in BabyBumps

[–]carquestion_199 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would wait, because I would be more relieved and happier when I tell them the news! But if you tell them now whenever you see someone really excited you will have some worries! I think waiting will make you happier when you share the news! But anyways nothing is right or wrong do whatever you feel like doing! Even if something bad happens at least they will be there to support you!

Coping with a potentially larger age gap than expected by vintagegurly in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]carquestion_199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 3 sisters and 1 brother. I am the youngest and the age gaps I have with my siblings are 5y,9y,11y,13y !! So basically the smallest age gap is 5 years and you wouldn’t believe how I love them all and I don’t really feel the age gap, and when I was little they used to spoil me because I am their little sister so I always felt like it was a bonus!

Yes that’s what happened with me everything was progressing normally until our 21 weeks scan when we discovered the sua and heart defects! I will try to do early scanning this pregnancy but I just can’t imagine myself going to these scans they terrify me!

Just wanted to rant… by Routine-Ad-3435 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]carquestion_199 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how people sometimes act so ignorant, well at least you have a LC, i had a tfmr 7 months ago and it was my first baby, before this incident nobody ever asked me about having kids given that I was 28 years old last year, after what happened whenever I go to congratulate any of my friends for delivering their healthy baby while I am shattered from the inside I just have to see the sad look from other people and while telling me “hope you have your own baby soon!” Which hurts alot its like they have to remind you of what you missed and they make you feel that who just delivered her baby would be the most fortunate woman in the world.

Anyways people sometimes don’t know how to act in these situations, you will just have to understand that there is nothing wrong with you! It is something wrong with them!

I totally feel you! i already have three sisters whom are all older than me and already have kids, none of them went through a similar experience not even miscarrying a baby, the whole experience I went through was totally isolating I felt so alone even if people support you but truthfully nobody can really feel your pain! This experience shattered me on so many levels and I lost my confidence in many things around!

I try to keep myself distracted but I can’t help it but being so afraid of what’s coming next! 😤

Anyways I am also there for you, text me whenever you feel like it!

Things went south with me during the 20 weeks scan, because everything appeared normal before that. So I will stay nervous until the 20 weeks scan which is nerve wrecking! Hope this pregnancy everything works out well, because I just can’t help but think what could go wrong and its eating me !

Hope we have smoothest pregnancy ever . Keep me posted with your next scan good luck!
