TTC After a Loss

~?*??*?~Ladies In Waiting Check In~?*??*?~

This is a group designed for all the ladies in the various stages of waiting after a loss: waiting to miscarry, waiting for AF to arrive, waiting to TTC again, and waiting for a BFP. Since this process is such a true test in patience, it is nice to have the support and friendship of other women going through similar experiences and emotions. Check in every Tuesday and Thursday.

New members: Post an introduction and your current TTC status and I will add you to the list! Welcome :-)

Current members: Post your updates, link to your chart, upcoming appointments, prayer requests, and if you get a BFP, please feel free to post here (along with your EDD).

There will be a question, a place for prayer request, and an inspirational quote and verse. I look forward to getting to know you.

To keep track of all your favorite Ladies In Waiting visit the Official Group Website!

  • Nothing really new but waiting to test.  I'm hoping to wait until 15 DPO so I will know the test is not reading the trigger shot. 

    QOTD:  Besides having a baby, I really don't know what I want.  Smile  I think something for the house like more Kurig accessories.

    Because of the great "Snow"vember of 2015, my medicated cycle was cancelled.  However, we were blessed with our little rainbow baby due on 8/14/15!  Baby J had other plans and decided to make his grand ole entrance on 7/4/2015!

    Surprise!  Our little girl entered this world on 12/8/2016 after her eviction notice was long past due.  Our little turkey baby turned into a snow baby!

  • Hi Everyone,  I have my D&E follow up today...then I'm headed right on to a rehearsal dinner. I'm going to be the most dressed up girl in the doctor's office lol.I am just hoping that all goes well today.  Still no AF obviously, still showing positive on HPTs. Ugh.

     QOTD: I'd like a vacation, does that count as a gift? If not, I wouldn't mind a Keurig or some clothes. 

    "Even miracles take a little time" Our little pumpkin is here!! Dominick William arrived 2 weeks early on September 30, 2012! 8 lbs 2 oz and 20 inches. For you I've waited all these years.
  • Morning ladies! I'm 11DPO today and POAS only to wipe and find, what I think, is AF on her way. Boo. So I'm waiting to find out if it really is AF.

    Gift: Besides the obvious that we all want, I want an iPad :)

  • Good Morning!

    Just waiting to O... I hate having such long cycles.  Still hoping to hear back abotu my CD 3 bloodwork.  I will probably call the office tomorrow if I don't hear anything.  That will make it a week.

    QOTD:  The only thing I really want is a BFP.  Hopefully I will get one before that though & if that is the case then I want new slippers, books & clothes.

  • Good morning ladies!  Can I join you?  I am in waiting for my first AF to show up.  I am actually still spotting from my miscarriage.  Will it ever end!  My RE wants us to wait 2 cycles before we start TTC again.  I am really hoping my cycles get back on track soon.  For Christmas, besides a BFP I would really like a iphone Smile

  • I think my bleeding has finally stopped, exactly 2 weeks after my D&C. It's a relief, it feels like the whole m/c is finally getting to be behind me, physically at least. My follow-up appt is tomorrow.

    For the holidays -- I'd really like to save some $ so keep gifts to a minimum. Not exciting, I know, and my husband will hate for me to say that and won't follow it, but I'd feel better if we could save and put some $ back into our savings account.

  • I am healing more and more each day from a horrible lower back conditiom. I will see my old PT next week. I am putting TTC on hold until maybe one more cycle...just hoping PT will fix me. I would love a BFP for Christmas. My second choice would be a tropical vacay ( not gonna happen) and third choice would be a iPhone if I can get a good price. Money is tight with DH in grad school and paying for daycare too.

  • I'm waiting for my first AF post m/c so that we can move onto IVF.  We have everything all set and my meds should get here tomorrow so we're just waiting around.

    QOTD:  I really want a new camera, but this was supposed to be something we got when we found out we were pregnant, so I think we might hold off.  I really need new clothes and, so random, but I want a roasting pan because I'm always borrowing my mom's.

  • Morning! ((hugs)) to anyone that needs them this morning. FX crossed to all those that are in your 2ww. I hope this is your cycle!

    Welcome to all the new ladies

     Update: AF finally showed up yesterday after 8 weeks after d&c. I couldn't be more happy. It's a little different then my normal periods and I am a lot more crampy but glad that things are getting back to normal.

     QOTD: I can't really think of anything I want. My b-day is in Nov and I have no idea what I want for that either. Maybe a gift card for a massage could be nice or a short weekend trip someplace.

  • Update: Just waiting to O. We're dealing with an ongoing family crisis (very sick loved one), and between being tired and being sad, there isn't much sex going on. I don't know if this will be the cycle for us. We should be sexing it up big time, but other than a quick, unexpected romp this morning, I don't see much of it happening in coming days.

    QOTD: Other than the obvious, I'm not sure what I want. Maybe a new MacBook, since my current one is getting old.

  • Hi all- I'm a newbie. I am waiting for a lot of things I guess...for the postpartum bleeding to stop, AF to arrive again, and to find out when we can start ttc. QOTD: material-wise I think I want some keurig k-cups and clothes for Christmas.

    I haven't thought about Xmas yet.  Last year my answer was a house and a baby, it is the same this year.

  • Thank you so much for the special prayers. I really needed then this week. I was happy about my temp going up..but then started spotting Tuesday..but it was barely anything.  I kept my hopes up and it stopped. Started again wed on and off..then again today..just when I wipe (sorry if TMI)  Its so aggravating! If AF is coming to the party..she should just show up. No need to rsvp for 3 days!  No cramps either..very strange..oh but yes..my temp did drop this morning.  And life is really just kicking my butt lately..ugh!  We all need a break.

    QOTD: All I want for Christmas is a BFP!!  Wink
