I had a very frustrating day. I went to see my doctor today about my losses. He was less than helpful. He didn't listen to me, tried to tell me chemical pregnancies don't actually exist, and that I had multiple false positives because apparently that's a thing. So for two months in a row, across several brands of tests, I managed to get about a dozen faulty ones. Wtf?
I'm so frustrated. I strongly believe that my body is not producing enough progesterone and that's why my pregnancies are failing. I was on prescribed progesterone for my second and third child, so why is it out of the question this could be my problem. I'm getting pregnant, my body just won't support the pregnancy.
He told me there's nothing he can test for, no way to know why this is happening. How can that be? I know my cycle inside and out. I know when something is wrong. I knew something was wrong in November before I ever went to the doctor. I had a nagging feeling that something just wasn't right. No reason to feel that way, but I did. And it was my first miscarriage. With my chemicals, I didn't get excited because I knew, somehow, that it wouldn't be going far. That's why I tested so obsessively.
I so wanted to get some sort of answer today, or at least the assurance that I'm not crazy and that we would work through this and figure out what is going on with my body. Instead, I'm left angry and hurt, thinking that no one will ever listen and I'll never be lucky enough to carry and deliver another child. Today was a bad day.

A RE would definitely be best. They do a ton of blood work and come up with a plan.
Use the cream as directed, 1/4 tsp twice a day. I always put it on my tummy between the navel and hair line, or my boobs. It's best to start at ovulation and continue until your period starts or you hopefully get a positive, until 12w
Time for a new doc, I'd see a Reproductive Endocrinologist, as you've had multiple losses. Also, try using NPC, Natural Progesterone Cream, if they won't prescribe you anything. I suggest Source Naturals or Pro-Gest. Use it til 12w, but start lowering amount around 11w, to wean off.
Thanks guys. I definitely plan on finding a new doctor. I go to a teaching hospital and there are many doctors there but he really soured me on all of them. I've loved everyone I've seen until now. If nothing else I want a second opinion. It was just so strange how adamant he was that there was nothing to do about it. I'm feeling defeated tonight, but tomorrow is a new day and hopefully I can find someone to truly listen to me.
I'm so sorry to hear about your experience today. Seems like it's time to find a more compassionate doctor who is willing to work with you.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
Why Are Many Women Unaware of Their Own Anatomy?
the amount of women who are clueless about their own anatomy is so sad and shocking. a lot of the women are older than me and have more children then I do 😳
now I understand that everyone has their own opinion on the topic and grown adults can do whatever they want with their bodies but to deny facts and make up false statements about your own anatomy when it comes to your unborn child is just so disappointing.

@lilin_13 thanks for the info and advice!
I made an appointment with a different doctor, and she has great reviews for working with couples ttc. I go next Thursday so not too long of a wait either. Hopefully she'll be more willing to help me out!
