Pregnant after a Loss

Holy Shiitake Mushrooms! (Intro)

Hi All,

I'm still in utter and complete shock, but it's my turn to move over from TTCAL.... Here's a little info about me.  I'm 37, DH is 39.  We have a 2 year old daughter.  I had a miscarriage last July 2011 and have been a member TTCAL board since September.  After multiple months of short cycles and short LP, I started Clomid in March.  This past cycle was #4 and i was on the brink of taking a break.  I had a very emotional discussion with my DH on Thursday that I couldn't do it any more - Clomid was making me not myself - a depressed, emotional wreck.  I expected my period to come this weekend.  I thought i was out this month - so much that i actually stopped charting and temping, which is so against my obsessive personality.  I haven't had any phantom symptoms this month... nothing.  Anyhow, yesterday morning, i checked my fertility friend app on my phone and realized it was CD 27, which is a long cycle for me.  On a whim, I took a test and holy crapballs, there was a faint 2nd line.  It was confirmed this morning with a slightly darker line.  Needless to say, this was the ultimate Father's Day gift to DH. 

I look forward to getting to know all of you ladies on this board. Hopefully I will be around a while, even though it seems like i'm dreaming right now....  It's been so awesome to watch all the familiar faces move over to this board, and I'm so grateful to be joining you.  I'm also so thankful for all of the wonderful ladies on the TTCAL board, for all of their support and friendship over the last 9 months.  There are days i don't think i would have made it through without the ladies on that board.  I will continue to hope and pray for successful pregnancies for all.

Sorry for the long ramble.  Hope everyone has a great day!  xoxo
