      I read your post and I too suffer from recurrent pregnancy loss. Getting pregnant is no sweat, just keeping it. I am sending lots of baby dust from one Robert Smith lover to another:)

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I suffer from depression and bipolar. I've been without meds for 3 years now because we've been trying to have a baby. We've lost all 4 of our pregnanies. I had weight loss surgery and lost 240 lbs. I was doing well keeping it off with Weight Watchers and Curves, but because of money and being a high risk pregnancy, I had to give up both. I'm more depressed than ever and I've turned back to food for comfort. I've now gained back 60 of the 240 lbs. I've lost. I can't do this again.

      Treatments

      Effexor Not Working
      Did not help me.
      Lexapro Not Working
      Did not help me.
      Luvox Not Working
      Did not help me.
      Prozac Not Working
      Did not help me.
      Psychotherapy Not Working
      Little to no help, until I found the right therapist. Unfortunately, my insurance took him away from and back where I started. It's about the right match with therapy.
      Lithium Somewhat Helpful
      Lithium is the only med that allows me to be stable enough to work on my depression. My new therapist is okay, but I'm barely making it through.
    • Close Obesity

      My story can best be told here: http://www.freewebs.com/charliebrownwasthedog/

      Treatments

      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      Avoiding certain "trigger foods" helps. Like most cereals.
      Gastric Bypass Surgery Working / Worked
      Did wonderfully but being forced to give up Weight Watchers, Curves and my depression getting the best of me, I'm gaining back a lot of weight.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      This helped a LOT, but because we're TTC and I'm a high risk, I can't do that anymore.
    • Open Infertility

      We've been trying to have a baby for almost 3 years now. We've lost 4 pregnancies. I don't know how much longer I can go on like this, but I'm just not ready to give up either. We're currently under going a lot of tests that our insurance does NOT pay for. Hopefully we'll have an answer soon.

      Treatments

      Clomid Working / Worked
      Don't know why the doctor gave me this. I ovulate. I can get pregnant, I just can't keep them. So yeah, I got pregnant on, but lost it.
    • Open Pregnancy

      We've lost 4 of our pregnancies. I am currently pregnant, but the pain I'm having is telling me we're not going to be able to hold on to it. Still, I have hope. I don't feel right about posting on the infertility board at the moment.

      Treatments

      Aspirin Working / Worked
      We're in the middle of getting tests back, in the mean time, I was told to take baby asprin. IF we get to keep this baby, my guess will be that the baby asprin worked.
    • Open Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility

      Lost 4 pregnancies. We're currently pregnant but fear losing it.
