Pregnancies

I'm sorry for all of your losses. I just had a miscarriage and am trying to just find somewhere to fit in and understand when it's safe to TTC again. I wish you luck in your TTC efforts, Melli. I know it can be difficult sometimes, but I know you'll have a beautiful baby one of these days. It's just the waiting that's difficult.
Right now I'm just trying to recover from the shock of losing my baby at just over 12 weeks. It would've been my parents' first grandbaby, we were all looking forward to it.

I was just over 18 weeks when i found out I had to be induced a delivered at 19 weeks(due to a chromosone defect my baby had stopped developing at 15 weeks and had 0% chance of surviving to term). I just got back from my Dr and he wants me to wait AT LEAST 3 months until i start trying again, which is fine as my husband and I had already decided that

I am currently having a m/c as I am writing this.  As soon as it is finished hubby and I are going to TTC again.  I find myself mentally ready for it right now.  This is my 4th m/c.  I don't think it gets any easier, but it really wasn't a shock.  With my 2 girls that I have now I had to be on progesterone with them.  When the doc said I didn't need it this time I figured they were wrong and I would lose it.  I was right so I had already prepared for it.  I was only about 5 weeks so it could have even been a chemical pregnancy
Adgal- good luck.
Sticky baby dust to everyone!!

I am so sorry for all of your losses, I am in the same boat as all of you.  I had a D&C early february, and was told they couldn't find any reason for it, but to go ahead and try again after next cycle.  That was 5 weeks ago, and still no period.  We haven't necessarily been "trying" (tough to do when you have no idea where you are at), but had something strange happen.  Last week, I got a positive home pregnancy test, followed the next day by a negative.  That night, just out of curiosity i took an ovulation test, which came out positive....I don't know what to think.  I am going to wait until next week to retest for pregnancy, but please, everyone keep your fingers crossed for me.

Good luck to all of you, and sticky baby dust to all as well.

Not that it makes it any easier, but a lot of women hear have been through a miscarriage and a number of us are ttc again and I've come across a number of women who are pregnant now too!  It is so hard to keep moving forward but this community is a great place to get support for loss and for all the issues that come up with ttc!  The waiting is SO difficult!  My obgyn told my husband and I that we could conceive when we were emotionally ready and that when my body was physically ready we would be able to conceive(he said usually a month or two).  I got my period the next month after my miscarriage and we started actively ttc again...No period this month BUT have had 4 BFN =(  I'm trying to keep the faith though!  Believing in something that you can't see in hope that it will all come together.

I'm sorry for your loss, i am still in recovery stage as well. There seems to be quite a few who get pregnant without even having a period. my dr has told me once the result from the amnio come back (about a cycle he said) but Not until i was emotionally ready. My hubbie and i have agreed to wait at least 2 cycles and start ttc sometime after 3rd period (if i can wait that long).
