TTC after 35

Appt Today

I had my checkup with my doctor today. I'm four weeks from my loss. She said we can start trying right away. That felt like a relief! I'm still sad after losing my son at 20 weeks but I feel part of our healing will be TTC again. It felt good to see her (even though I cried), I felt hopeful after not feeling hopeful for awhile.
