TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

Hi, Can I join you lovely ladies?(a little long)

Hi ladies I know most of you from when we first started trying. For those that don't know I will give you the short version (which is still kind of long):

. Our first daughter Emily was stillborn at 21 weeks and 4 days. at our 20 week appointment we found our that our baby would not be able to live outside of my body. she did not have a lymphatic system and her heart was on the wrong side of her chest (there were several other problems with her health also). we chose to continue with the pregnancy and at 21 weeks and 3 days we found out Emily no longer had a heart beat I was induced and delivered her the next day.  We got to hold her and kiss her and it was wonderful and we have been trying to get by ever since.

We knew right away we wanted more children so we started trying (with my dr's ok) as soon as I got my first period.  the first month we started trying I got a positive HPT  and then got my period the next day. Im not sure if ti was a false positive or I was really early and lost the baby right away. In August on our 5th cycle of trying I got a BFP  we lost the baby at the end of September I was 7 weeks along.

The DR wanted me to wait for 2  cycles before we started trying. I'm currently waiting for my first af on cd 62.  The dr told me if I don't get my period by December 5 he will give me meds to bring it on.

I am ready for af so I hope she shows up soon. but if not we have a plan in place.  We hope to be back to trying sooner then later, but I am trying really hard not to put time limits on things like it did last time... (ie- I better be pregnant before X amount of time- Because that just leads to more heart ache) 

Thank you all for listening and I hope to be of some support and help to you all also.
