TTC After a Loss

Hi! Intro

Hi ladies!

Just a quick intro...I recently had a missed miscarriage. We lost our little bean at 8w5d and I had a D&E on August 10th. What is sad, we heard the heartbeat just 5 days before. We went three weeks thinking everything was fine..it wasn't until a had some very light spotting one morning that I realized something wasn't right. Went in for a US right away and they said there was not HB and that the baby stopped growing 8w5d.

It has been a long 6 weeks emotionally and physically. Lots of random cramping here and there after the procedure, lots of crying, lots of frustrations. But I am at the point now that I finally feel like I can really start thinking about TTC again.

I had AF last week. It lasted all of two days (which is really odd for me). My normal periods last a week. But I will say those two days were horrific. Lots of bleeding and cramping.

DH and I are waiting for another period to really start trying again. So maybe end of October/November?? But I wanted to go ahead and introduce myself to this board.

Good Luck to us all!!
