Knock, Knock...May I join you?

I am so sorry that we all have to be here. For some reason I am incredibly nervous about coming over here. I never really knew the right time. I have been on the TTCAL board since about March/April 2011 with a short stint on Pgal that September/October. So I hope you will have me.

Many of you know me from TTCAL, but I will give you some background. DH and I were married when I was 23 he was 25. I always said I was going to wait until I was 25 before we TTC, so I went off the pill November 2010 and we got pregnant that cycle. As a first pregnancy, I had bloodwork at 6/7 weeks and my first appointment with the doctor was at 9 weeks. I had an ultrasound that showed a sac measuring 6weeks. I was told it could just be too early and I had to wait two long weeks for another ultrasound. At 11 weeks tjere was no change. The doctor explained what was going to happen after his explanation, I chose a d&c without even looking DH in the eye. I starred at the floor the whole time. My cycles were not regular and I ended up taking clomid to induce ovulation. It worked and I was pregnant again September 2011. I went in for my 6 week bloodwork and while I was there I started bleeding. (Info in siggy). I had an RPL panal of bloodwork and everything came back normal. Our insurance would not cover karyotyping. I also had an SHG (HSG was not covered). That also was normal. We waited 3 cycles that time because of the testing. My cycles went back to normal they are around 30-32 days. Except this one, it was only 28. So here we are on TTCAL cycle #7. DH and I decided we would try until November and I would discuss this with my doctor at my annual exam.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to be a contributing member of this community.
