Hi ladies!
I thought I'd move into this part of the forum. I have a TTC journal which has been on the go for almost a year now.. god that sounds crazy. I fell pregnant after 2 cycles of ttc in december 2018. Unfortunately the pregnancy ended on 19th February 2019, we had a missed miscarriage and so found out at the 12 week scan hadn't grown since about 7 weeks. We had a scan done at privately and saw a heartbeat which put us at 7 weeks, so baby died shortly after that. This has really put me off having an early scan in future.
I opted for medical management which in hindsight I wish I hadn't. It didnt work and basically I bled and continued to have positive tests for 2 months. I was messed about and left for this length of time when really I should have had surgery to sort it out.
Since then we have not fallen pregnant. We have seen a consultant privately and he said there could be damage to my uterus as a result of the long and drawn out miscarriage.
So I had an ultrasound on 30th December to check my ovaries. She told me I'd ovulated from my right ovary and she could see the collapsed follicle.
My period arrived today, a long 33 day cycle! So tomorrow I will have bloods taken for FSH/LH and AMH.
On Thursday I have a hysteroscopy, and then lastly I'll have a HSG done in Februarys cycle. I need to have swabs taken before that one to rule out infection.
Hubby will also do a SA at some point this month, which hes dreading but I've tried to make light of it and remind him of my 3 invasive vaginal examinations!
This journal will be positive and upbeat. I'm just waiting for my baby. I know it's coming, and I'm ready for it. I've been through the self hating, angry, depressed time. I've come out of the other side and accept that I am healthy, young (30) and i fell pregnant quickly before. There isn't a reason it cant happen again. Thanks for reading, and baby dust to everyone, may 2020 bring us miracles
