TTC Journey
We have decided to start TTC our second child, here's our journey.
March 29th, 2011 Mirena removal. Mirena not found. Possibly positive OPK.
April 10, 2011 AF started early, very light.
April 21, 2011 Positive OPK, BD
May 7, 2011 AF came for a visit.
May 18, 2011 Randomly took an OPK, got a positive.
June No OPK's this month, not really trying to conceive.
July 3rd/4th, 2011 AF showed up 5 days late on the night of the 3rd. Heavy bleeding, bad cramping, huge clots.
July 12, 2011 After thinking I had an early MC because I had super faint lines on $ store tests and "Not Pregnant" on two Clear Blue Digital's I ordered OPK's, I used a few on CD 8 and 9 they were very strongly positive. I had ordered pregnancy tests as well, they came on this day and I took one to see if I'd get a faint line from leftover pregnancy hormones. There was a stronger line than I expected. I had one digital left, I took it and it said "Pregnant". I am cramping, spotting. More confused than ever, going to get bloodwork in the AM.
July 15, 2011 Confirmed Miscarriage. They believe I was carrying twins.
August 22, 2011 Two positive home pregnancy tests at 13DPO. EDD 5/1/2012. Blood draw, levels at 36.
August 24, 2011 HCG levels doubled! Level is 72. We are SO happy!
August 26, 2011 HCG levels doubled again! Level is 161. Nurse said everything looks great.
August 31, 2011 Appointment with OBGYN, biggest waste of time ever. Nobody had any clue why I was there.
September 8, 2011 First ultrasound, set me back at 5 weeks 1 day instead of 6 weeks 2 days... not feeling very optimistic.
September 12, 2011 Started spotting.
September 18, 2011 Been bleeding red on and off since I began spotting. Not getting any answers.
September 20, 2011 Gushing blood. OB sent me to ER. Confirmed Miscarriage. Again.
October 6, 2011 Went to the OBGYN to follow up from the ER visit. Nothing really came of this, just that he will give me progesterone next time if I want it.
October 28, 2011 AF showed up about 2 days later than I expected! Very happy about her coming at all though.
November 2011 A devastating blow... Diagnosed with Bipolar two days later diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Then told I need to have the MS under control before having another child. TTC put on hold.
March 18, 2012 I moved out of my husband's house.
I am Epic enough to be on people's about me's:
