having a baby

I am 24 and I live in the UK with my husband Tony. We have been married for nearly 4 years. For the last 5 years we have been trying for a baby. In the last few years I have been pregnant 9 times but had one ectopic and 8 m/c. It has been difficult but the love, strenghth and support we have has got us through.

I am Anti-Nuclear Antibody Positive (ANA). There is an association between ANA and recurrent pregnancy loss. My consultant has reccomended that I take 75mg Asprin on the confirmation of a positive pregnancy test then once a scan has confirmed viability I will have regular Tinzapraine injections throughout pregnancy.

The Latest!!!

I was due on my period on Sat 12th July but had no period pains, I did a pregnancy tests x 4 and they were all positive. We were not trying yet but I suppose thats the best time. We were going to go on our holiday in August first. I went straight out and bought some Asprin as recomended by the consultant. I am really scared because if the treatment does not work then there is no more hope for us, so fingers crossed. I telephoned the consultants PA to inform him and get an appointment. We go to see him and for a scan on the 29th July. Usually we go slighlty earlier but they have said they need to see a heartbeat before they can give me the injections. The appointment seems so long away and I am sure it will drag. I am really scared but will take one day at a time and hope that this time it is meant to be.

My blogs will tell my story so far and what has happened on my scans.

The main thing is that I am going to be a Mum!! I can't believe it has finally happened and that we have heard the heartbeat and seen our little one moving around looking healthy! x

carnation - Sunday, 31 August
just wanted to say thank you to everyone for all the kind thoughts and words. sorry that i have not had time to respond to each of you personally, but i am still very sick. (((hugs to all)))


carnation - Thursday, 28 August
ok so just an update for everyone. I was waitin to m/c and was only having light bleeding. almmost none, but the cramos were unbareable. the only clotting i had was the size of a dime maybe. i tried not to worry, i thought it would happen soon. but then when i went to the bathroom and i wiped i had this foul odor. and the ONLY thing i have ever smelled that smelled like that was an infection in someone. later that night i starting running a fever, having chills/hot flashes, and cramping really bad. so i went to the ER. the dr did a pelvic just to check things out and she asked if i had smelled a weird odor. i said yeah and she said that i had a lot of in there. so she did some blood work and my white cell came back high so she called my dr. he told her to admit me and start antibiotiics so they could schedule D&C for the next day (Tuesday). this was like 3 am Monday. so i got the d&C. the whole time though that i was in the hospital i felt so sick. I was flipping on them b.c they wouldnt give me something for nausea. they were giving me stuff, but you could only take it so often. (4 hours). anyway, now i am home from the hospital and I still feel like crap. i feel fine from the d&c but i spent all night throwing up and am still feeling like i am going to throw up again. ughhh. so just in case you are wondering how i am doing, theres my update.
p.s.~ the reason for the infection was because i had apparently started to m/c naturally, but then everything just stopped after a little while. go figure.
