How did you know you had low progesterone BTW? I am self-medicating low dose asprin because it was mentioned that next time I get pg then Repromed will give me Heparin - I think it's the same thing?


Sorry MaebeeBaby I have only just seen this. I found out I had low progesterone once I had my BFP. My CD 2 test was fine, and my CD21 test they said I hadn't ovulated (which I hadn't, I ovulated on CD25) so we were on 3 months of trying before starting Clomid. As soon as I got my BFP, I had HCG and prog tested (as in, the day I got my BFP at 13DPO) and I started progesterone pessaries that day, my progesterone was at 20 and they like at least 40, but preferably 60, to sustain a pregnancy.

I had a natural mc in September and we started TTC again straight away.

I dont know if I'm ready or not yet but decided to go ahead anyway. I've been told I'd be at higher risk for PND, but chances are I'd get PND regardless of when I get pregnant because I had it previously.

I'm very scared of losing another baby and am hoping my doctor will prescribe low-dose aspirin and do a progesterone test asap when I do.

I can't even begin to imagine how scared I will be next time round especially as I never felt anything was wrong. I'm sure they will take a few more precations with us next time Azza, although I guess it probably does depend on the doctor.
My D&C was only a few weeks ago so am sort of thinking it will be nice to just enjoy a few drinks over the festive season and think about trying again in the new year. In saying that DP and I are not actually trying not to although I think we missed ov by a couple of days.

Once we were allowed to try again I got preggers and had a natural miscarriage. The following month I got preggers yet again and had Jared at 22w gest as he had spina bifida.

To be honest with each of them I've had a gut feeling. With Daniel I knew it was gonna be fine. With the ectopic I was the one pushing the doc for a scan cause I knew it was more than a simple miscarriage about to happen but he didn't believe me. I knew I was going to miscarry the next time from the time I got the bfp. With Jared I knew I wouldn't miscarry in my gut but when it came time for the 20w scan I wasnt at all excited about it. I didnt really even want to go to it.

We are ttc again, I'm scared sh*tless about it because of the spina bifida thing and morning sickness


i can understand how scared you are and thought I would share my friends story. She went into prem labour with her first baby, a girl at 28 weeks and her little girl was still born. They did a post mortem and could never tell her what caused the stillbirth.

She got pregnant again and they found out it was twins when she was miscarrying one of them at 6 weeks. At her 20 week scan she found out her baby had Spina bifida, she chose to go through with the pregnancy and her son is now 7.

She got pregnant a year after having her son and had a molar pregnancy at 7 weeks I think it was.

She is now 22 weeks pregnant but this pregnancy has not been easy on her as you can imagine. Getting to 12 weeks was her first hurdle, she was on 5mg of folic acid for the first 13 weeks. then she had the spinabifida and downs blood tests at 16 weeks but for some reason they didnt do the SB one so had to wait another week for results. Luckily the chance was slim and since then she has had 2 scans showing a healthy active boy and she feels she can now relax a bit but wont feel totally relaxed till she holds her boy in her arms.

I have my fingers crossed that all of you who have had a mc can go on to have healthy happy bubbas
