TTC After a Loss

Intro-ish (partial xp from 3T)

I'm Megan and my H and I have been TTC #1 since January 2011.  I always suspected that I had/have Endo (because of family history and symptoms) but my OB wouldn't give me a referral to an RE for the longest time.  Once I was finally allowed to see an RE, he was immediately convinced that I did/do have Endo and promptly scheduled me for a Lap. The Lap confirmed Endo and my RE was able to remove some.  I was also able to get pregnant that cycle, but it ended with a miscarriage at about 8w5d due to a blighted ovum.

Now, we are following Betas back down to <5 to start treatments.  We'll do 7.5mg of Letrozole and timed intercourse for our first treatment.  RE wants to aim to produce two eggs since he thinks that producing one will not increase our odds any.  

Anyway- I'm really looking for a place to talk about treatments and what to expect, TTGP won't cut it for that.  So, I hope you'll have me!
