frustrated
Hi all,
am so frustrated waiting for AF.
Had a pregnancy loss end of November (stopped growing at 6 weeks) with a D&E at 12 weeks. Dr. said I should wait 2 cycles before trying again (we are using IUI and femara). So first cycle took 45 days. No problem. That was expected.
But now I am 42 days with no sign of AF, though I have been cramping on and off since 4 weeks.... I did a pregnancy test at about 35 days and it was negative. So pretty unlikely I am pregnant - unless I ovulated super late.
I am just venting here. But I so hate hate hate this being in limbo waiting game.
Just to make it worse, my twin sister just announced her 4th pregnancy (she's had a few miscarriages and been ttc for a year - but is sure this one will stick), and though I'm happy for her I am also jealous, as I really would love a second child!.

good luck and hope all returns to normal soon so the ttc journey can start again
I'm so sorry about your loss. I can totally understand your frustration, and feeling a bit jealous about your sister's pregnancy is totally normal with everything you've gone through. I think we've all been there. Hopefully your cycles will get back on track soon so you can start TTC again.
