Intro & a question

Hi ladies -
DH and I have been ttc since last November. After dealing with long, anovulatory cycles since then, I got my bfp after our first round of clomid and we were so excited. My first beta was 18. But it did reveal low progesterone so I was put on 200mg 2x/day. Three days later when I went back, my beta was 6. 
I am heart broken about this and still dealing with the grief.
My question is when I should expect AF. I'm honestly just wanting her to hurry up. I stopped the progesterone on Friday (when I got the call). We can start trying again next cycle so of course I'm ready to try for my sticky baby. Any info you ladies can give would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: Intro & a question
Everyone is different concerning AF, so I really have no answer for you. It seems that it's even more wonky if you had irregular cycles before. GL and hope she shows soon!
I'm so sorry you find yourself here, but welcome. This is an extremely supportive community and I hope you find comfort here. AF is different for everyone.
If you haven't yet, I strongly recommend checking out the TTCAL blog. There should be a link at the top of the posting main page.
*BFP #1 9/10/11 Natural m/c 11/1/11 at 11 weeks, 5 days*
*Diagnosed as unexplained infertility*
*BFP #2 12/6/14 after IUI#2 Hopeful! EDD 8/14/15*
This exactly.
I'm sorry for your loss. Welcome to the board though. My AF came 5 weeks after my loss. I hope you find comfort and support like I have.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Welcome to the board.
Everyone's first AF after their m/c is different. It may be same as pre-loss, it may be vastly different. But, if it takes more than 60 days, contact your doctor.

I am on the mobile site and can't see your siggy, so forgive me if I'm way off base here. I think pp are assuming you are talking about your first AF post loss, but I think you may be asking when you will start bleeding/when the miscarriage will begin. With a beta at 6 and having been off progesterone since Friday, my guess is it will be this week. It could be any day now. If you charted before, you could start charting again to look for that telling temp drop.
BFP#1 April 12, 2011, EDD December 24, 2011, strong heart beat at 7w3d, d&c at 10w6d
BFP#2 Oct 24, 2011, natural miscarriage, EDD unknown
After RPL testing my losses and subsequent infertility are considered unexplained.
Cycle #22: Femara, TI, and progesterone = BFP!!
BFP#3 Dec 21, 2012. Beta #1 @14dpo = 134, progesterone 67.8. Beta #2 @ 17dpo = 664! Team green, EDD 9/1/13, healthy baby boy born 9/12/13!
Congratulations to the fabulous KGS2003! Her sweet boys are here! Grow boys grow!!!
yes...thank you. I was wondering when the bleeding would start. Thank you for the idea...I will start temping again tomorrow.

Oh Sarah, I am so sorry you're here.
AF can take anywhere from 3 weeks after m/c to several weeks. I was told (IIRC) that it averages about 45 days and if I got to 60 days without AF to call the RE for Provera.
Be kind to yourself. And don't for a second think that you have to be "over" your grief right now or even any time soon. It will get easier, but the milestones will still hit you like a ton of bricks, and that's ok. Huge, huge hugs.
