carmen TTC Diary (road to recovery)


Hi everybody,

I thought i would start this journal because after my recent missed miscarriage evrybody gave me some invaluable advice and well hope.

I must also had i m not totally ready to start this minute, because i m on the road to recovery.

But i wanted to share my expereinces with everybody in similar situations.

I found on the 11 jan about my miscarriage (missed) and then i took medical management on the 22 Jan. Last Monday my hcg levels were still 6.2. continued spotting, Thursday started to bleed like menustration. Took pregancy test yesterday to check my hcg levels. That came negative.

So now i hope i m bleeding now to clear out the uterus.

I ve started my santogen prenatal and omega vitamins , and also a good balanced diet, hubby is doing it with me so thats a great help.

Only problem is i m having a cigarette now from my hubbys packet with a cup of coffee ( de-caff) cos i ms o stressed about this bleeding, although i do not plan to start again.

Anyway i m at hospital tomorrow, i wish they would tell me this bledding is my menustraion although i doubt it.

I m going to keep my ovulation sticks on hand though for after my real cylcle??

All going good, this week i haven t had spotting, a little if i wipe but i mean a little.

Always when i ovulate i feel it twinging at my right side, and yesterday i had this feeling. So i did an ovulation test and the line was there but not dark, so i think i maybe close to ovulating.

I am going to try again tonight when i finish work and also tomorrow.

Who knows i maybe a little close to the coming to visit.

I know its a little bit tmi but the past week or so before if i had i would be spotting but last nite nothing.

I am so happy as i feel in myself that my body as returned to normal

Omi.

Oh i m glad your also have a quick ciggie, obviously i know its bad but i was feeling so naughty for doing it.

But i think its hard cos if you have stress sometimes its nice to have a little puff. ( god we sound like such addicts )

I wouldn t care but i spoke the lightest cigarettes out there , Kent Menthol ( 4 mg ) and i still feel guilty, but like you i m going to stop again probally today as i have one more in my packet, and i will not buy anymore now.

Now i m getting better i want to stay as prepared as possible.

I had another blood test taking last night for my HCG, so i get the results today, so i'll post later.

But i think its looking good, they only had to come down by 2 , so i think after the bleed last weekend they are down.

Fingers crossed

Got my results from blood test ... HCG levsl now showing as 4.2 , so finally they are under the 5 mark that they are supposed to be.

I have also started Ovulation tests, just so i can keep a track of my body and my ovulation so i can estimate when or if my comes.

But i knew they were goin down by 2 per week, so i can reckoning if they get down to 0 next week. Thats when i m going to be activatley ttc, this is my run up to it.

I think if get a in April or Beginning of May i will be over the moon,last time i got pregnant the days i ws ovulating. So i m praying that it happens fast this time and i m going to make sure that my diet is continuing to be healthy , not a little sneeky cigarette no more ( didn t when i was pg but after mc ), my multi-vitamins etc....
