    I just wanted to post an update on my journey. I received a BFP after my first FET. At the 6 1/2 week ultrasound the heart rate was a little low and LO measured 1-2 days small. One week later heart rate had increased but was still a little low and LO measured 2-3 days small. Today at 8 weeks and 6 days, there was no heartbeat and no further growth. 
    I have chosen to have a d&c at the hospital which will happen sometime in these upcoming days. 
    When I'm able to, I will move on and use another one of my little frozen emmies. But for now, I stand humbled and shadowed by the dark cloud of infertility. 
    I'll be back soon...hugs to all.

  • @tusername my heart breaks for you. I am so sorry you are going through this. You and your DH will be in my prayers as you move forward over the next few weeks. Take all the time you need to grieve this loss and know we are all here for you. 
  • Thank you everyone for your concern and support. During my TWW I 'felt' pregnant, and I wasn't wrong. Sadly, it was a chemical pregnancy, confirmed yesterday. I'm not doing so well currently, but I know I'll eventually get where I need to be. 

    I havent checked in here lately, but congrats everyone on your BFPs and I hope you have healthy pregnancies. (The scientist in me is astounded by the success rate in this group - we're batting over 500 and that is amazing and wonderful). 

    @Tusername  - I am so, so sorry. 
  • @Tusername I am so, so sorry. Loss is heartbreaking. 

    @FatPony I am sorry for your loss, it's all so sad.  Wishing you well moving forward. 

    Having been through a loss myself I must say the miscarriage/loss board and the TTCAL board have been my lifesavers during that process. The women on TTCAL are amazing and I honestly don't know how I would be moving forward without their support. 
  • @Tusername I am so sorry for your loss.  I hope you take all the time you need.  Hugs to you.

    @FatPony I am so sorry, but glad you know to let yourself grieve, and will know when you are ready to move forward.  Hugs to you.

    @kyrgyzshan Your project is beautiful, it looks just like the Pinterest one!!  And I think your plan moving forward is beautiful too :smile:.

    @sunflower5678 I'm glad to not be working. I'm feeling better as the day has gone on. I'm pretty crampy though and somewhat bloated. I'm taking it easy and drinking lots. The procedure was a piece of cake. Nothing to worry about. Just take it easy the next day and let DH pamper you. 

    @lin681 It only takes one! I'm someone who always has to pee so I'm worried about the full bladder part lol. Do you get to use the restroom right after?

    Thanks @wifeinraleigh28 I'm pleased with the numbers so far.
