TTC After a Loss

Post-op appointment was today :(

And it seemed like I waited forever in a sea of happy pregnant woman with thier spouses. I had to overhear all there happy conversations. I tried closing my eyes, going to the bathroom, playing on my blackberry just to distract myself, but it was very overbearing. I was never so happy in my life to hear my name being called. I almost broke down in the waiting room, but held it together.

Then as I was getting weighed, my friend's dad (doc at the practice) was around the corner and I lost it. I immediately just cried on his shoulder as he comforted me. He always seems to be around when things go wrong. He was there to admitt me to the hospital with Katie. And he just happened to be around on his "off" day at the office when I was having my ultrasound and told the news. I just told him thanks for being there for me when I needed it the most. I also thanked him for going above and beyond with scheduling my D&C. He called me on Saturday night and on Sunday to make sure that I had everything ready to go on Monday for the procedure. He said he had to move things around with the hospital to fit me in. You don't get that kind of service with many doctors.

I regained composure and went into the room.

Then when my normal doctor came into the room I burst into tears again. I just never know what is going to trigger me anymore. I feel like I am getting stronger emotionally, but I lost it. She said that we can start trying again after I get my period back. Continue to exercise and take my daily vitamin cocktail that they have me on. She believes that I will be back into the office within 2-3 months.

When we do get pregnant, I will have an ultrasound at 7 weeks to make sure it is developing correctly and to help ease my anxiety. So on top of trying to either avoid or delay pre-e, I now will have anxiety about whether the pregnancy is going to be viable. Ugh!

I'm so glad all the tests and exams are over so we can focus on moving on now. AF can't get here soon enough.
