Intro from a dirty lurker (loss mentioned)

edited July 2014 in Secondary IF
Hi everybody,

I've been lurking on this board for a few months and already know some of the ladies here from other boards. I realize there is a new board in the works which I'm looking forward to being a part of, but I also want to intro here because I have learned so much from this board and decided its time to come out of lurking.

My history is in my siggy, but for those who are mobile, here's the run-down: our DS was born 7/11/11. No problems getting pregnant or staying pregnant with him. Trying for #2, though, has been a different story. I've had 3 first-tri losses since November 2013. The last one ended in a d&c and my betas took a long time to go down. I finally got AF on CD70. My RE had me come in for a hysteroscopy yesterday to check things out before clearing us to TTC again. And he was not happy about what he saw in my ute. Apparently I have retained tissue from the D&C. He also saw a 2cm endometrioma/chocolate cyst on one of my ovaries.

Our plan is to get a an operative hysteroscopy scheduled to remove the retained d&c tissue. My RE does not want to do a lap on the endometrioma because he's concerned about ovarian reserve (I turn 35 in a week). Prior to yesterday's hysteroscopy, my RE sort of just told me to calm the F down and keep having TI. Now, with the added challenge of suspected endo, he says our time table is sped up and he thinks we should move on to Letrozole + IUI once all the crap is cleared out of my ute. So here I am, hoping to support you lovely ladies while I'm benched and to learn some things along the way for when its my turn.

Also, can somebody please explain the potato to me?  

Have some french fries if you got this far.

    Hi again. Wish we were meeting back up on another BMB instead, but such is life. We started trying for #2 in Sept. 2013. Now I could kick myself for not trying earlier.

    Yea :( We started NTNP in Oct 11 when N was still teeny, we figured we'd get all the kids out of the way quickly.. What a joke LOL. Isn't that what they say though? "When you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans" 


    We're getting ready to do IVF #3 pretty soon :/
