INTRO-First time poster, long time lurker Lost mentioned

bos2415 · March 2016

Hi ladies,

I wanted to introduce myself to the board, as I have lurked for a very long time and it helped me get through some really difficult times on this fertility journey. I had a miscarriage in May 2015 at 11.5 weeks, after the heartbeat and development was a behind what it should be. A week later they confirmed there was no heartbeat and I opted to have a D&E. Of course nothing goes smoothly and there was retained tissue so I had to have a second procedure 5 days later. My husband and I had a really difficult road after that miscarriage, as I am sure so many relationships do, but we got through it with some counseling and tough conversations. Since then we have been actively TTC since August. I tried acupuncture for 3 months, NFP and recently started charting (or trying to at least, haha). I just wanted to say hi to everyone and introduce myself officially. I have appreciated all of your posts these past few months and look forward to contributing and sharing. Thanks!

Welcome! I'm glad lurking has helped you. It helped me too - there's power in numbers, even in hard times.

Very sorry about your loss. With all the work and time you've already put into TTC it sounds like you're hopefully well on your way to a BFP in the near future.
