May I come on over?

in TTC After a Loss 6 Months+
It's not quite 6 months but I'm in for a long ride so I figured I'll come on over now instead of next month if that's ok?
My name is Kathy, I'm 33 and I live in Northern NJ NOT the Jersey Shore lol. I found out I was pregnant on May 23rd and I was so excited to give Logan a sibling. My happiness was short lived and on 06/26 I had a DC. I tried to get my life back to somewhat normal but my lack of period had me concerned. Finally after switching doctors on November 6th I was diagnosed with Ashermans. I'm going to see an RE on Monday in hopes of starting treatment to get my uterus back to shape so it can house a baby. Right now I am infertile for the time being so we are not technically TTC but on the road to it.
I hope I can offer something to this group as the TTCAL board has been a huge support to me.
I'm on my phone so please forgive the format.

    1st, I'm sorry to hear of your struggles.

    2nd, put a siggy warning.  You're DS is cute, but not everyone wants to see that on these boards.

    3rd, I'm a firm believer in post where you feel comfortable.  Other people may feel differently.  

    GL in your journey.

    You haven't received a lot of responses yet, so I'm going to chime in with my thoughts. Primarily, I believe one can post where ever they feel comfortable, and if this board does that for you, then you are welcome with open arms by me. I also imagine receiving a diagnosis of Asherman's is a shocking one at this point in your TTC journey.

    That said, catching Asherman's early on is a great thing.  I would hope that you are not feeling so hopeless that you can actually relate to what a lot of women on this board are going through.   While your diagnosis is a hard one to hear,  it is not an insurmountable one to overcome at this point. You also haven't had your hysterscopy yet, so at this point it could be a case of more insighted fear than an actual issue.I really hope this is the case for you. 

    Your loss was still quite recent - you haven't even reached you EDD yet. Most women here have passed that and beyond. You have yet to see waves of newbies pass you by over and over - that's a huge part of the feeling that women on 6+ have. For instance, my original BMB loss girls - the majority of the are or are just about to be on PAL. Which is my 2nd BMB. I actually belonged to your loss BMB as well - that was my 3rd pregnancy.

    I would also add that there are women on this board that have been dealing with this journey longer than you have been a parent, and request that you be considerate of that. There are certainly women here who already have children, but they have also had something of a harrowing journey getting there and since. As such, a ticker/siggy warning would be a nice addition in an introductory post.

    Mostly I say this in hopes that you never have to really come over to this board
