Planning a Baby  Discussion Forum

we tried to get pregnant since april 2005 and by june i got pregnant, by checking the pregnancy through home pregnancy kits, twice with consistent positive results. So i decided to confirm my results with a gyno and even before i could visit my gyno, i started cramping and bleeding at the end of my 5th week(counting from the first day of the last period in the month of may). They took a sonogram to find no gestational sacs and that i had already miscarried, and i did bleed out with a regular period. Since then my period cycle has been consistent for 30days and its a perfect clock cycle. we left the july cycle to reconcile. We started ttc from august, but in vain. So i met with a gyno and ran my blood work, which was normal. She put me on glucophage and am not suffering from pcos, but she said it would help me ovaries get sensitive, and she prescribed it for 6weeks, but within 3weeks, i suffered from severe diaherria and vomitting so she stopped the pills. I scheduled an appointment yesterday(27/10/2005) and she has prescribed, prometrium 200mg(via vagina) pills.
Am worried! Is anyone sailing in the same boat? kindly reply

laashu replied. Prometrium is the natural form of progesterone and am gona do a little research before i jump into taking hormone pills. And btw, thanks for sharing your story and i admire your kind gesture. Wish you luck gurl! Keep in touch. baby dust!

Laashu simba replied. Hi laashu,
Even we started TTC in April this year. We got pregnant on the first attempt but I misccaried very early at 6 weeks. The doctor could not find any sac inside. My doctor felt this is normal and asked me to go ahead and TTC. She did not put me on any medication. Then in Oct I got pregnant again and this time I got 2 positive HPTs as soon as I missed my period. I had all the symptoms... swollen breasts , mild nausea etc. But in 3 days I started crampting and bleeding at 5 weeks. So this was a early miscarraige also known as chemical pregnancy (since the HCG shows up in the urine but no sac is visible). I have scheduled a visit with my doctor on the 1st. I think I jave LPD ... because I typically ovulate only after day 21 of my 32 day cycle. This leads me to beleive that my luteal phase is about 10 days... which is very small. I hope my doctor prescribes something like progesterone in this cycle.
Will let you know after I meet my doctor.
Hang in there... and things will work out for us.
