Chemical pregnancy, round #1 failed
It was a chemical pregnancy for me. Today my HCG was only at 3. I’ve known this was coming since Tuesday, but it hurts so much. Somehow I think worse than any other loss we’ve had so far. It was 6 months of a rollercoaster but feeling hopeful and now we’re left with absolutely nothing.
When I went in for my beta HCG, my TSH was elevated (meaning hypo thyroid). I wonder if this could have caused it? They put me on medication but it was already too late. Curious if anyone else has had this?
This was our first round of <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>. We retrieved 8 eggs, 5 fertilized. 2 made it to blastocyst and 1 PGT tested normal. I know we need a little time to heal but I'm still eager to talk to my doctor about what’s next. My heart is broken but I’m definitely not done fighting for this baby. as of now our consult isn't until late March which seems so far away.
if you've been through multiple rounds, how much time did you take in between and did your doctor change things up, or did you get a second opinion? Any stories or experiences are appreciated 🤍🩷
