Starting Fertility Treatments

I will be so glad when all of this is over and we can think about trying again.

I'm sorry girl. I'm not sure what you were told you can and can't do but do you think a heating pad would help? You have been on my mind a lot. Praying for you.

Thanks so much Mary. I think it might- I'll have to try it. Got chills right now, and I'm shaking a little. I'm not sure how much sleep I'll be getting tonight.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. I hope that you get some rest and this ends soon. How long before your doctor will clear you to start another round of Clomid?

Oh, and Aleve always helps me more with pain than Tylenol. If it's okay for you to take it, I'd try that with a small cup of milk and see if it helps more. You poor thing - you shouldn't have to be in pain physically AND emotionally right now.

Thank you so much, Sandy. I have been so thankful and cheered by all the support on here! It means so much to me.

If anyone is interested, I wrote a blog post on my personal blog about all of this.

It's a sad post, but I feel I summed up what's been going on pretty well.

I went in to the doctor again today, and scheduled the D&C for tomorrow at 1pm. Please pray for me! I'm scared!!! I am so worried that I will never be fertile again, but I also can't take the pain anymore. I'm between a rock and a hard place. They said that after the surgery, once I get my period again, we can start trying again. So basically I will take a cycle off and then we will see what happens. I just have to survive tomorrow first.

Thanks, yall.

@Mary- Thanks! I'm glad that came through. I don't always feel like I do. I don't even always feel like God is on my side. I guess that's why the Bible refers to the heart as deceitful... I'm doing my best, though. I'm glad that He remembers I am dust.

Oh, and I also hope you are right about being even more fertile! That would be a dream come true. I just hope that I feel better during subsequent pregnancies. My doc said that healthy pregnancies feel different than ones that are doomed to miscarriage. I sincerely hope that is the case. I would love to just be sick in the good way.

I am so sorry for you loss. Don't loose hope. My first two pregnacies ended in miscarriage and ultimately D&C's. After the second miscarriage I became pregnant the next month and went on to deliver a beautiful daughter. Don't loose faith and try to stay strong. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Hugs.

Hey everyone, it's been awhile. I can't make it public on Facebook yet, but I wanted everyone who had given me such wonderful support earlier this summer to know my news: I'M PREGNANT AGAIN!!!

We weren't even trying. I never even got a period after the D&C. It just happened like magic. I only found out about 24 hours ago, and I am so, so excited!

Thanks for everyone who prayed for me, and for reading my story.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
