I lost my twins on Oct. 8th, they were perfect. Nothing was wrong with them. They were 19.5 weeks along, so they were in between miscarriage and stillborn. I'm just so lost and I don't know what to do. I had such a hard time getting pregnant and my dr.s were just horrible. he just told me not to worry because "i'm young", and he never told me anything post natal wise. so i'm just really lost right now. nobody explained to me what to do when my body starts producing milk, or anything. i'm frustrated. anyway, i'm sure we've all been through these pains and frustrations . . . so here are the questions i have and I thought those with PCOS might be able to help.
- if your milk came in how long did it take to go away?
- did anything PCOS related cause your tragedy?
- did you have your period soon after? how long did it take to regulate or ovulate? did you ever get pregnant again?
i guess those are the biggest questions on my mind. i know there willbe days when i'll feel just ok again, i'd kill to feel just ok, but i know this is part of the process.
I know how you are feeling. I just vaginally delivered my baby last Wednesday but found out that my little boy died on October 8th as well at 17 weeks which was my mom's birthday. I don't have regular cycles and it has only been a week since the delivery so I'm just waiting to see what goes on with my body. This is so devastating for me as well as all of us. I just don't know what to do.

On a natural cycle, they are usually around 22-24 mm maybe bigger when they release. On fertility meds, that's different and they want them smaller. My RE considers 16mm a good size for me when I'm injectable drugs. Hopefully you've released your follie by now, if not then maybe soon.
I keep taking OPK tests but it's always a faint line. I stopped bleeding for like 10 days but just yesterday i started bleeding again but it's like a black brown color. I'm bringing it up with my Dr. tomorrow. I'm trying to track my BBT but it's all over the charts and nothing is a good predictor.

first of all i am so sorry for the loss of your babies. i know how you feel about wanting to try again right away, i take my temp every morning and am anxiously awaiting af to arrive. my ob told me to wait 2 cycles. my RE wants me to wait untill my HCG goes down. if you haven't seen and RE i would strongly suggest seeing one. they deal with PCOS and infertility much more than OB's.

hey darling just wanted to let you know your not alone!
i havent giving birth to my stillborn twin yet so im waiting to see how i feel then, i cant really offer any advise but to say how im feeling and see if u relate, but everyone greives differently, for me, it still seems surreal beacause i havent had any closure yet as im still carrying my darlings. i know the birth will be bittersweet, to lose a son (who was discovered not breathing at 31 weeks - no reasoning yet)
but to also having to be alert to be able to breastfeed and look after one at the same time, im so excited yet so scared and sad. its very hard but i know cuz of all my family friends and cysters ill get thru it. i will get thru it for my son!!
i have to!!
take care of yourself, cry when u need to cry, just dont hold it in! xoxox

So I think the bleeding is me having a cycle. It's so weird to get back into TTC mode. I think we're both still grieving in our own ways, but I think we're both so desperate to have a take home baby. The Dr. said it just might be a cycle but there's no real way to tell, she also said with PCOS the highest chances of conceiving is the first 3 months after something like this.
i know how you feel about wanting to try again right away, i take my temp every morning and am anxiously awaiting af to arrive. my ob told me to wait 2 cycles. my RE wants me to wait untill my HCG goes down. if you haven't seen and RE i would strongly suggest seeing one. they deal with PCOS and infertility much more than OB's.
