Trouble TTC

*Introduction- signature warning- not sure if I belong

*I'm not sure how to do a signature warning, or a mention of children in post warning, so here's another :) *

So some of you have already met me through my wonderful 100 comment post on TTC. I'm not really even sure I belong here, since I guess this would be considered secondary infertility? But we've also been trying for a year and a half :/

I had twins in October of 2010, and we lost our Christian to kidney failure 17 days later. Tanner ended up staying 152 days in the NICU. We started actively TTC in July of 2011. I ended up getting a BFP on New Year's Day 2011, but had a miscarriage at seven weeks. 

I did four cycles of basically *unmonitored* Clomid, ordered by OB. She did blood work an ultrasound before, and one ultrasound after my third cycle. I now know how dangerous that was, and WILL NOT be doing Clomid again. 

I'm now currently waiting a callback from an RE that's about an hour away from me. I absolutely cannot wait; I feel like I wasted five months on nothing :/

Thank you for reading. Hopefully I can continue to learn from you guys, as I've already learned a good amount :)

    Yes I know secondary IF is not as active so you're welcome to stick around here, OP. Just please continue using a siggy warning when you post as most of us don't have children yet and some days, it can be hard to see them. Welcome to the board.

    I agree that if you want to post just put a siggy warning for the girls having a hard day but otherwise it sounds like you could use the support, knowledge and love from the group here.  And PP that mentioned TTC after a loss is a great suggestion too.  

    I'm so sorry for your previous losses and hope that you find success soon.  Good luck!
