TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

intro n' stuff

Hello TTCAL6+ ladies -

Thought it might be time for an intro, since yesterday was another CD1 for me.

Our story briefly: I'm 35 my husband is 41. We've been married since '08 and TTC #1 since Jan '10. I've been charting since Feb '10. I got PG in July '10, but MC'd naturally at 5w3d.

We've been through some testing (SA, bw & HSG.) He is all good, I'm dealing with a slightly elevated FSH and super sucky shizzy low progesterone levels (5.1 and 3.4). My last cycle I was on 50mg Clomid (being monitored with bw & u/s) I had 2 really good follicles cooking and still BFN.

This cycle I'm doing Clomid again (same dose) and progesterone after O. Still feeling hopeful and glad we've got an evolving plan. And here we are.

I've been a heavy lurker around these parts. I'm wishing happy thoughts for everyone and BFPs to boot!

BzeetyD = 38, Mr. BzeetyD = 44 together 12/02 married 9/08
