TTC After a Loss

Hello All,
I have been cautious to write on here again but thinking it is maybe time.... Here is my story and sorry it's long!
I got my first bfp at the end of this past August and was beyond excited. Everything seemed to be going fine until at about 6 weeks I started to bleed. Went in and found out it was a "chemical pregnancy." (Confirmed with low HGC levels and u/s)
Luckily, I got pregnant again right away until the same thing happened.... They had been tracking my HCG because of the first loss and on a Thursday after my 3rd draw, was told everything looked great for a viable pregnancy! Then, of course, started bleeding again the next day. I went into the ER with the cramping and bleeding to confirm miscarriage and sure enough my numbers had dropped and nothing on the u/s. The next week I went to have my follow up numbers drawn and they had gone WAY up. With an u/s confirming an ectopic, I went straight into surgery finding it had ruptured and had internal bleeding and wound up losing my left tube. Surgery was the beginning of November and all went well.
As of today, I still don't have AF. A week ago, I completed the progesterone challenge to try to jump start her after 6 weeks of nothing after surgery. I was told it should start by 5 days after stopping the pills but still nothing (and multiple bfn and hcgs at zero before starting challenge).
Wanting to start TTC again but this process has been never ending. I feel like I have been on an emotional roller coaster for the past 5 months!!! Again, sorry the long post, but thank you for reading!

Thank you ladies so much for all of the warm welcomes - its never fun to be here but great to have some good support and I really appreciate it!
@megrae12 - She suggested we wait at least one cycle, I know there is so many different opinions on when to try again, but that's what we were told!
I am confused because I took an ovulation test yesterday and it said I was ovulating (I have not done any temping). Maybe I just need to wait a few more weeks after ovulation and it will come?!
I'm so sorry for your losses, but welcome (hugs).
