TTC After a Loss

Intro

DH and I are not ready to TTC quite yet, but I decided to start charting again right away because I am curious to see what my body decides to do after having had a missed m/c last month.

DH and I started TTC in February of this year.  After a couple months of basically just "pulling the goalie," I started charting, and we got our first BFP in May.  We were thrilled to find out that we were expecting, and obviously devastated when we found out that our baby had gone to be with God. 

We plan to wait 3 months to start TTC again.  Partly for emotional healing, but also because of some medical reasons.  I found out after my first prenatal visit that I am not completely immune to Rubella.  So, I went to my PCP yesterday and got a booster, which precludes me from TTC for 3 months while my body creates the antibodies it needs to create a full immunity.  I am partly glad to have this 3-month wait imposed upon us, but partly disappointed because I feel like I might want to get this show back on the road sooner than that!

I've been hanging out on the mc/pl board, and look forward to seeing some familiar (and new!) faces around here.  I might not be posting here very regularly yet, but I felt like this would be a better place to post my questions, observations, etc as I start this whole charting thing over again.

Nice to "meet" you all, here's a Drinks on me.  Happy Friday!!
