TTC After a Loss

Does the waiting get any easier?

I'm sort of new here....haven't posted here much since my loss.  I had an ectopic pregnancy that we found out about the day after Thanksgiving, had surgery, then a methotrexate injection in Dec.  So we're currently TTA until we get the green light in March....and the waiting is killing me!

It was bad enough waiting when we were TTC this baby and I was getting BFN's...but this is so much worse.  If feels like everyday someone else announces they are pregnant, and there are babies everywhere.  My sister is also 34 weeks pregnant, it's like a knife in my heart because I keep thinking how far along I should be right now.  Basically it sucks!  I'm just hoping that March gets here quickly....I'm impatient.

  • I wont lie to you - waiting sucks. It doesn't get easier.. I think we just find better ways of dealing with it.

    Thank you...I like to think the same thing!  That picture makes him look so old, he's only 15 months!

  • First - I am so sorry for your loss.  Second - so far as I can tell the waiting doesn't get much better.  I'm coming up with better ways to distract myself though.

  • I'm right there with you, girl. This wait is brutal.

    Since your ectopic and mine were so close together, I'll be anxious to see how quickly things get moving for you. Keep us updated! And good luck! :)

    I hope it happens quickly for both of us!  Well, everybody here actually :)

  • I was excited and counting down the days till we were able to try again.  Now, the hardest part for me is getting BFNs when I know we timed everything right.  Having to wait for my body to get back to "normal" months after a D&C is killing me. 
  • Waiting definitely sucks.  I'm sorry you're going through this.  March is just around the corner.

  • I'm waiting until March right along with you.  The waiting is killing me.  I have been charting just so it seems I am doing something proactive in the pregnancy project.  My chart is wacky right now and I haven't ovulated so that is upsetting too.  I've decided to take on a diet and exercise regime to take my mind off TTC.  It hasn't done the trick for me yet!  We'll make it!
