TTC After a Loss

Whats worse?

Finding out you this is not the month by BFN or CD 1?

Trying to hold off testing til Saturday, AF is due on Friday, because I feel like seeing a BFN would be more depressing then AF showing up.

BFP #1 -7/29, EDD-4/5/11, missed m/c at 9 weeks, discovered 9/22, d&c-9/23
BFP #2 -1/9/11, EDD-9/22/11 DD born 9/12/11
BFP #3 - 10/2/13 chemical pregnancy
BFP #4 - 12/25/13 Missed m/c at 8 weeks baby only measured 3 weeks

    Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  • I think the BFN is worse, because then you have to wait for AF to show up so you can move on to the next cycle!

    GL!

    This is my thought this month, last month I thought the opposite. I have been super moody today so I am thinking that means AF is on her way so I will just try and wait it out. I am definitely testing on Saturday as we are going to see a friends band play at a bar so I will want a drink if I can, hopefully I won't be able too :-)

  • I would say AF, I can always convince myself that maybe I tested too early or O'd late. 

    I am also holding out testing until the weekend.  AF is due Saturday, so I'm trying to hold out until Sunday.

  • I'd rather get the BFN and be able to prepare for AF.  But I think everyone is different.  (Also I tested today even though its only CD19 and I'm pretty sure I haven't O'd yet).

  • Sometimes I have to see a BFN to make my phantom symptoms chill out. I like the finality of AF though (although when it starts with spotting that messes with my head like crazy). Good luck!

  • I'm going to go with AF. 
    This month I tested on CD13 as it was my Christmas party that night.  BFN of course but I still held onto the hope that it might be too early.  When AF arrived the very next day I was so emotional!  I couldn't explain it. 
    As this was only my second AF since the D&C, I can't help but wonder if this is only going to get worse with each cycle :(

    Married August 20th, 2005 to the love of my life.

    1st BFP August 6th, 2010. Missed MC discovered at 13 weeks. 

    2nd BFP January 5th, 2011. Beautiful Harper born September 28th, 2011.

    3rd BFP March 15th, 2013. Treated with methotrexate for ectopic pg at 7 weeks.

    4th BFP August 2nd, 2013. Sweet Micah born sleeping at 21 weeks with full T13. 5th BFP July 1st, 2014. Praying for a healthy, full term rainbow!

  • Personally for me it is worse seeing a BFN. I havent tested yet since starting to TTCAL three months ago. But back before I got pg the couple BFNs I had really stung.
