Last week, I had my first OB appt after being released from my RE from IVF #2. It was our very first BFP, after over 2 years of trying. I was very nervous to leave RE and move on to my OB. I was very worried from the very beginning bc I felt that my HGC numbers were very low when we got the BFP.
At my appt last Monday, I asked if I would be getting another u/s. The nurse said it was not necessary as I had just had one 2 weeks prior. However, I pressed for the u/s because I just felt like something was wrong. I had lost all symptoms at that point, and needed some reassurance. I ended up getting my u/s appt on Thursday, and my suspicions were validated. My baby's heart had stopped. I should have been 8w6d, but was measuring 7w5d.
I went ahead and scheduled a D&C for later that afternoon because I just didn't want to wait for nature to take over. D&C went well, and DH and I were home around 9 pm after a very emotional and exhausting day. Physically I feel fine. I am barely bleeding and had no cramping. Does this start later??
I am so sad and lost at this point. I don't know why, but I ended up calling RE office next morning to see about when I can go back in for our FET. I was advised I needed to wait one cycle and after my 2nd period starts, I can call RE to start the FET process.
I am wondering if you all thought that I should wait longer than 2 cycles to start the process again. Also, I have heard that chances of getting pregnant are higher after a m/c. Is there any truth to that??

Re: Intro to the group
As for the theory of increased fertility after a loss, it's bullshit. Sorry.
