HCG level was only 33.5...she said it should be around 60 and because it's so low it's suspicious of a miscarriage. But it's good that I am not bleeding. She said we should know more by next Monday when I am to go in for another test.
No results yet on the progesterone test.

I was really hoping my levels would have been higher than that. So nervous that I am going to lose this one.

Just saw my progesterone level on the mychart through the doctors office and it's only a 3. Last time it was a 7.5 and we had the mc. Thinking this isn't going to be a sticky bean. Even though I haven't heard from the doctors office regarding this test I do have some progesterone pills. Gonna take one tonight and maybe in the morning until I hear from doctors office telling me not to.
But sadly, it's not looking very promising now.

My miscarriage was confirmed on Friday (3 days ago) but I think it happened the day I started spotting on 02/01/2015
My bleeding has stopped Saturday evening it has been on and off. But something weird has happened today I've been having a clear (egg white) discharge sorry for tmi, could I be ovulating already?
I hate this ttc game have been trying for 3 years and when I finally got my BFP my little angel baby was taken away too soon.

I will be waiting 2 cycles before I try again

Hi Ladies,

Thank you all so much for your support.

Got a call from the doctors office this morning and because my numbers are so low, the RN said that it's looks like an abnormal pregnancy and indicative of an early miscarriage and didn't think progesterone would help at this point. But if I wanted to take it I could. Since I have them I am taking it. I still don't have cramps yet except for a pulling/pinching with a slight pressure feeling. Doesn't feel like it did before, in the last mc. Who knows maybe I will get my miracle but I am losing that hope extremely fast. I am at work today but wishing I was still home crying in my hubby's arms. It's really hard to feel positive when your RN and doctor don't feel positive about it either.

Praying4miracle1: I am so sorry for your loss and thank you for the message. When I had my first mc on Nov 10 I took it very hard. I was feeling so much more positive about this one until I got the numbers back and now, well, I don't feel anything except shock and extreme disappointment.

The RN made it sound like I should have waited another month before trying again. I only waited until I had one period, then the doctor said if we wanted to try on our own after that 1st period we could and might get lucky because you are considered more fertile after a mc. Maybe the RN is right...maybe I should have waited until 2 periods. But the doctor said we could try on our own. I would think the doctor would know best. Not sure what I am going to do this time around. When/if the miscarriage takes place then I will obviously wait til I get my first period and decide after that. Emotionally right now, I don't know how I feel.

To answer your question...Your cycles after an MC can be very whacky. The mc cycle which I call right after the mc was pretty normal for me but the 1st cycle after I got my period after the mc I didn't get a +OPK so I wasn't even sure if I O'd. Then to my surprise I got a BFP. Anything is possible. I would go out and buy some OPK's and see if you are O'ing or not. Or just let it go for a month and start tracking again after this mc month.

I am so tired of the tracking and BBT'ing and the whole TTC process. I am not giving up but it is so hard to feel positive about anything right now. My DH says the silver lining is that we got pregnant twice now...first time with an IUI and this time on our own. He keeps saying it's a step forward...I know he's right but emotionally I just don't want to hear it right now. I am so sorry you have been at this for 3 years. I pray we get lucky again in a couple months.

Oh LoLo I am so sorry for what you're going through. Maybe it will work out, though! Either way, don't blame yourself for not waiting longer, I don't think there's much evidence that that actually alters your chances of having a healthy pregnancy or not.

And I understand what you mean about all the tracking and not wanting to hear certain things, however true they may be. It's just such an emotional journey, and so many of the things people say to me, whether true or not, are not always helpful while I'm in the middle of everything.

AFM, I'm on CD13 I think. I haven't been tracking temp or opk but by my CM, it seems like I will ovulate tomorrow or Wednesday. I've only gotten on BD in, so hopefully we'll get another session in tonight. :) I'm so hopeful that this will be our cycle!

Oh Lolo I feel for you. I so hope you get positive results a d I wish you didn't have to wait to find out. That really sucks.

Thank you ladies!

Well, my temp is slowly climbing back up. I keep praying that's a good sign. But I am so scared that it's only the progesterone pills making that happen and that my baby won't be viable and by taking the progesterone pills I am just delaying the inevitable. My DH doesn't think so...since I just started taking them Monday night. I keep praying that taking the Progesterone Pills will save my chances of having a healthy baby.

The only other thing that scares me is that I am starting to get some slight cramps but they are so very slight and not constant. FX'd it's normal early pg symptoms and not another mc.

Lolo keep your chin up girl. I know its hard not to stress right now with your situation. When do you get more results from your Dr?

I go back Monday morning for another blood test. I think they aren't expecting much but feel like by then we will definitely know whether or not this little one is going to stick around.

My temps have been up the last 3 days so I took a test and it came up with an extremely faint line. I did post it in the photo gallery but my camera didn't capture what I can see. I will detest tomorrow.
