New Here :(

Hi I'm new to this board.  Went to the doctor on Wednesday night at 8 weeks 2 days, the baby only measured 7 weeks 1 day with no heartbeat.

I had a D&C yesterday and am overall feeling a lot better.  I am not bleeding very much today but am a little crampy today.  I feel emotionally better than I did yesterday and Thursday.  So hopefully I'm on the mend both physically and emotionally.

We are eager to try again and know that everything happens for a reason. 

How soon after D&C did you start charting temps again?  We won't start TTC again until after 1 cycle, but I'm wondering how soon I can start taking temps.

Tomorrow is our 1 year anniversary, hopefully our 2nd year of marriage will be less trying and we'll have something to celebrate this next year.

I am so sorry to hear that...my heart dropped when I saw your screen name ..I have no real answers as I miscarried naturally and I am still bleeding a bit..I am here if you need to talk

Thanks Jen, it sucks.  But I'm trying to leave it in God's hands and hope that the testing they did yesterday gives us some answers.

I'm still crying from time to time, but I know that's normal.  And I'm PETRIFIED to have sex and even try again, but I'm sure that will subside over time.

How are you doing?

I'm so sorry for your loss.  I miscarried naturally and have not had the motivation to start charting yet, I plan once AF arrives I will force myself to do so.

I don't have any advice as to when to start charting again...but I just wanted to say I am so sorry for your loss.  This board is full of supportive women, so feel free come here anytime you need to talk or vent.  Happy early anniversary!

I am doing ok I guess we had a long talk the other night and will try again after we get the RPL blood tests drawn and I get my first period ...DH is having a difficult time he was soooo excited and after 2 losses in 3 months he is afraid its never going to work..hopefully we will both get answers as to why it happened.... I cry from time to time but now I am really just trying to concentrate on moving on and seeing what  we can do to try and fix it.

These women have been awesome for me over the last few weeks I really don't know how I would've gotten through it without them..come here whenever you need to vent  we are here for you:)

Hey there- I'm so sorry to hear about your loss...it sucks!  I had m/c #2 a few weeks ago, and I have started temping again, hoping to see if I ovulate or not after the m/c.  My temps seem to be back down around my normal pre-ovulation temps and it makes me feel like the days are passing when I log into FF every morning.  It's really the only thing I can do right now, so it's gives me some sense of control...when I really have none! 

Good luck!

I am sorry you are going through this.  I had a D&C almost 3 weeks ago and I started a new chart on FF the day of my D&C, just so my pregnancy cycle would not keep going (that sucked).  I have not begun temping, just because I am not ready for that yet.  I plan to start temping and really charting after I get my first period- which I am praying will not take too long to come.  Good luck to you.  My thoughts are with you and we are here for you if you need us.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I plan to start temping again after my first post D&C AF. Hopefully it won't take forever for that to come. I was told it could be 6-8 weeks.

So sorry for your loss. I haven't been charting my temps, but we were given the go ahead to try again at our follow up visit 4 weeks after my loss. I have been using opk's this month.

I'm so sorry for your loss.  You can start charting again right away, but generally it will take some time for AF to come after your D&C which can be frustrating.  ((hugs))
