Karen, I've just researched the LEEP procedure and I would guess that yes, it could contribute to your CP's. You've had so many that there has to be something at fault with your lining. You don't have a short LP (which was my initial problem) so I would say the egg is just not implanting well enough to sustain the pregnancy. Are you still bleeding? I'm sure there is medication you can take to strengthen your lining. If you have a good GP then he should be able to help you x

Hi Nikki, yeah im still bleeding but its not that heavy now. Im still having preg sypmtoms. Ive been taking folic acid and iron tablets. Going to take the soy again starting tonight but will try get into the DRs and see what he says

Yeah, I think that's the best idea
Dare I ask....have you done a HPT?

I was going to take one this morning but didnt see the point. You think i still should? Xx

Well I think I would yes. At 16dpo if you are pregnant you should get a fairly strong positive and it could also be helpful to you Dr if you manage to get an appt. I would think they would ask you to do one anyway x

Never thought of that. Will do one in the morning xx

Kraken--i am so sorry to hear, my thoughts and prayers are with you, i know it can b so discouraging, but i agree with numbers..it sure can't hurt just to make sure..

AFM--had an er trip monday night for severe cramping and bleeding...so i am out..in the process of an early m/c..see my dr. still on Monday..hanging in there...not quite sure as to where we are going to go from here...but i am trying to focus on how God has already blessed us, and trying to stay positive..maybe it's just not in his plan for us......

Angel - so sorry your going through the same thing. Its horrible and each one hurts more and more. I keep blaming myself wondering what ive done wrong etc. Its the worst feeling

angel, I'm so very very sorry.

We're hopping back on the IVF train for one last try. Assuming this au naturale doesn't work for us, I'll start birth control pills on CD3 of my next period, stims 2 weeks after that. Retrieval should be mid-April.
