TTC w/ LUPUS

Kebreania
My husband and I have been trying to conceive for a couple of months now. I have lupus, and been living with it since I was 16. For about a year now it's been under control. when I had my daughter it was a piece of cake, but now that we're trying to conceive more it's extremely difficult due to the fact that it (the lupus) is starting to progress, (i just found out yesterday) and a couple of other things...sorry but I just needed to vent....

I know it! If you stay focused on your goal of being a mom I'm confident you'll make it happen.

I was diagnosed with lupus when I was  15 years old. My fiance and i have been ttc for over 5 years. I recently suffered a mc in April due to a blighted ovum. A week ago i confirmed that i am pregnant about 4w2d and im scared to death. Im on plaquenil, baby asprin, vitamin d supplement, and prenatal vitamins. Anyone in a similar situation???

I have lupus too and have been trying for 4 months now after a mc. It's a hard journey but it'll be worth it in the end!
