TTC After a Loss

Checkin out your board.....

Hi there ladies, I am sort of checkin you all out from the MC/PL board......I am really thinkin sooner or later I will be coming over so I wanted to say Hi and intro myself......My DH and I are newly married, but been together 6 years. BFP via bloodwork 1/12/11....followed by more bloodwork the next day and then also 4 days after that. One week from BFP we were told labs didnt move between those 4 days, so deemed nonviable. I had a natural MC within 2 days of news. Crazy how our bodies just know. Today my  levels are back to showing a negative and my final ultrasound showed a normal uterus with nada for a d and c. Pretty depressing when a week ago it was full. The only positive thing was my ovaries were already sprouting follicles. So ladies here I am.....DH and I just really want to move past this but is it too early, am I being selfish? Is it normal to want to rush??? Input welcomed. Hugs!!!!

  • I am sorry for your loss. Welcome to the board, though. The ladies here are very supportive and full of advice. I came here soon after my loss while I was waiting for the okay to try again and have learned quite a bit. I just wanted to say hi. I hope that you enjoy your stay here :)

  • So sorry for your loss.   It's normal to want to rush, but how are you feeling?  Are you going to be able to deal with possibly having another loss?  Those are some questions you want to ask your self before trying again. Only you can decide the right time to do so.

  • Welcome to the board.  I am very sorry for your loss. 

    I would check with your doctor about when you can TTC again.  Most doctors advise a waiting period.  I don't think it is selfish or abnormal to want to try again as soon as you can.  When I finally got the go ahead it helped me to feel more hopeful and gave me something to look forward to.

    GL!

  • I am so sorry for your loss. The ladies from this board have been so helpful and patient. You will find some good people here. I can't tell you how to get past anything but I hope peace comes soon. My doctor said that she wanted us to wait one cycle so we could date the pregnancy but she said that if I got pregnant before that cycle it would be ok for multiple reasons, but I didn't have a m/c. We decided to take it easy and not focus on getting pregnant but enjoying the holidays and having fun. We didn't end up getting pregnant but I'm glad we took it slowly since I'm in a better place now than I was then - even though I had the "green light" I still needed time to grieve. We are all different though and I think only you and your husband can know if it's too early for you. (((hugs)))

  • Welcome to the board.  You will find a lot of support and good advice here.  Ask your doctor how long he/she recommends for you to wait.  Usually, doctors do advise at least on cycle before TTC again.  Personally, I waited 3 cycles after my D&C.

  • Welcome over here lanoue! I was hoping to see you come over here soon..I came over just a day or two ago...funny how days blur in grief. I'm currently "benched" but the ladies here have been SO welcoming! And its really fast paced over here, unlike MC/PL.. which is nice. There's always unrelated topics which helps me to focus on getting back to normal, emotionally.

    Don't rush yourself, but its really nice here, and I hope you like it too!

    Big hugs to you! <3
