TTC After a Loss

Coming out of Lurk-ville :)

Hi Ladies,

I have been lurking this board since my first m/c in September and now I find myself in the same situation after my second m/c in January. 

Just a little intro on myself...

DH and I live in Upstate NY and we are both teachers.  DH is 28 - I am 29.  We are TTC #1,but currently are TTA for two "normal" cycles, as per my doctor's request.  I just went through a RPL panel, and all tests came back negative.  My doctor explained it will be a waiting game for a little bit and then if things don't happen naturally again in the next few months, we will look into further testing and/or fertility treatments. 

We both come from large families and recently a lot of our cousins were married and started having babies.  I don't think a week goes by without someone poking their nose in our business asking us, "when are you guys going to have a baby" or "are you pregnant yet".  If only it was that simple!

I enjoy reading everyone's posts - and learn something new everyday.  I hope to be able to offer the same support and share in the up's and down's with ya'll Big Smile

  • I am so sorry for your losses *hugs*  Welcome to the board.  One of the best ways of derailing the baby discussion is to look at them and innocently ask them how much they want to know about your sex life.  My relatives are very conservative, so this has ended that line of discussion.  Or you could do something completely TMI and awkward for them and mention that since cowgirl didn't work last month, this month you're going doggy style!
