Thanks, everyone... I’m honestly not sure if I’ll make it to the third one. I just don't have the energy left—I'm not sure I can go through that whole ordeal again.

Just wanted to let you all know—I lost the baby... again.😢 😢 😢 😢 😢 😢 😢

Hey everyone, it’s me again. For those who don't remember me—on Wednesday, I took two pregnancy tests and both came back positive. But by Monday, I started seeing some brown spotting. I panicked and headed to the ER since my OB-GYN is out on vacation, but they wouldn't give me any straight answers. The nurse basically hinted that the pregnancy might already be gone—apparently, my uterine lining looks thick, almost like I'm about to start my period. Then a nurse practitioner told me these are symptoms of a miscarriage and advised me to just take some prenatal vitamins and stay on bed rest until my appointment. Now I'm stuck in limbo... do I run another test right away, or just wait? Please, I could use some advice...🤷🤷😢

I just couldn't help myself here: (please don't hate me for this) I'm sending all the good vibes to everyone hoping their deepest wishes come true:

Even if things get messy, I can't wait to have a tiny little thing like that around...

Then, because I couldn't believe it, I grabbed another one and—lo and behold—positive again. Is it actually possible for them to be fake? Honestly, I’m spiraling right now and don't even know what to think. I'm a total nervous wreck. What have you guys gone through? As far as symptoms go, my breasts are just super sore, but that's about it. I really don't want to get my hopes up and then deal with a massive letdown...

From what I've heard, if it shows a positive, it's almost certainly accurate—but if it shows a negative, there's still a chance it's a false reading. At least, that's the word on the street...

rapidrider3 said:awesome !!!! Did I seriously mention yesterday that I already smell like a newborn??? 😁😁

Yeah, you really did... Glad you're all so happy for me—honestly, I am too... good luck to you all.

Thanks so much!! I wanted to check in with you all immediately. I took a test this morning, but the line was so faint I honestly thought I was imagining things—even my husband thought it was just a ghost of a line. I ended up racing over to CVS to grab a Clearblue Digital test (since they’re a bit pricier, I wanted to be certain) and then... IT WAS A POSITIVE!
Yessssssssssss, I finally did it. To everyone else out there currently trying to conceive, I am sending all the good luck your way!!

Just figured I’d weigh in here. I was pregnant last year, but I delivered at six months—the baby was only 800g and didn't make it. Since then, we’ve been trying again, but nothing after seven months. On March 10th, my doctor told me to hold off on intercourse until my follicles actually rupture. I had two days of no contact, then saw him again on Monday, where he confirmed they had ruptured. I was supposed to have sex again two days later, but I paused. I was meant to be due yesterday, so I went out and grabbed a test and a Gravidnost Mini for tomorrow morning—though part of me is terrified it might be too early. I’m feeling symptoms, or maybe I’m just manifesting them because I want this so badly... intense headaches, frequent urination, massive cravings, tender breasts. No discharge, though—I heard somewhere that a lack of discharge means you're definitely pregnant, but I’m not sure I buy that logic, though whatever. My question is: given that I'm three days late, do you think it's too soon to take the test!?

Thought I’d chime in—I also have a bicornuate uterus, and my experience was pretty devastating...😢..
We started trying early on, but they didn't actually diagnose the uterus bicornis until I was 19. By then, I was young and hadn't done much reading on the subject—though I had a sinking feeling things wouldn't be perfect. When I decided to get married on July 19, 2008, we made the call to start trying for a baby five months prior. It just wasn't happening. Then, five months later, my doctor told me I was finally going to be a mother. 🙂
I was overjoyed, but he immediately put me on pelvic rest—which wasn't an issue for me. The problem was my doctor; he was incredibly irresponsible and rarely kept his appointments. Just as my baby hit the four-and-a-half-month mark, everything went wrong. The bleeding started. I ended up hospitalized and placed on strict bed rest. My doctor insisted the bleeding was "normal," but deep down, I knew it wasn't...😢...
A month later—at 25 weeks—labor kicked in. I had to go into delivery. I knew instinctively this wasn't going to end well. I gave birth to little Port, weighing only 800 grams. He only lived for four days...😢:...
They didn't offer much explanation. Once I felt somewhat human again, I went back to see the doctor—maybe a bit too soon, honestly, since it had only been a month. We’ve been trying for another baby for five months now, but nothing...🤷..If it isn't meant to be, it isn't meant to be. I'm still trying, but I truly wish you all the best. Oh, and a colleague of mine with the exact same condition is already pregnant for the second time without any issues...
Good luck...
