TTC after 35

Moving On.....Bring It On!!!

Ok, so it's been 1 week since we found out about the miscarraige.  I finally got AF on Saturday after falling betas and stopping my progesterone supplements.  It has been a week of highs and lows......we've definitely had our emotional meltdowns, but I have to admit, DH and haven't felt as close to each other as we have in the last week.  We are amazingly in a VERY good place right now and ready to take the next step to get this thing going again.

I went to my RE this morning and will be starting BCP tomorrow, which I will take for 2 weeks then stop to prompt AF again.  Once AF makes her appearance, I can start injections again.  This time, I'll be rooting for her to get here!

I'd like to take a moment to thank all of you wonderful and supportive women who gave me encouragement and words of comfort over the last week........it really did help me, especially knowing that I'm not the only one who has ever suffered a loss like this.  It was devastating......and I never thought I could be so attached to someone I'd never met......and it sucks when you feel so helpless to stop all of it.  The few short weeks I knew I was pg were the best in my life, I'm not giving up on that dream quite yet......it may take a little longer, but I KNOW that I will get there someday......as I hope and pray we ALL will.

 Thanks again and looking forward to more BFPs!!

  • Aw, I soooo know how you feel. I just had a chemical pregnancy at 5 weeks my levels dropped. I was devastated. It took a while for the emotional roller coaster to slow down. Still have some bad days here and there but it gets a little easier as time goes on and the progesterone wears off. We did IVF and will do it again at the beginning of May. Best of luck to you and think positive thoughts. It will happen for you. Big hugs!

  • So sorry for your loss {{hugs}} and good luck with the next steps in your journey.  
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

  • Sure sounds like you have a great attitude, and the fact you and your DH are bonding closer than ever is awesome too.  GL to you and sticky dust heading your way!
  • I am glad to hear that you are doing well and are movng ahead with your plans.  It is so amazing that you and dh are so close throughout all of this too.   That honestly makes a world of difference!  It is still early days, so allow yourself to cry and feel down.  It is really important to  grieve properly.  Know that the sun will again shine for you honey!  Trust in that.  *hugs*

  • Glad you are beginning to feel better...the heart takes longer to heal than the body.  Hope you're able to get back on track soon and on the way to that BFP!
