No
QOTW: How does it make you feel to know that you are TTC a sibling to an angel?
It's bittersweet to me. On one hand, I love the idea of making Corbin a big brother. On the other, I'm sad that his brother or sister won't meet their big brother until they themselves get to heaven. I also get worked up thinking about how we wouldn't be doing this right now because Corbin should still be here and almost 15 months old.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?
The whole do I need to test or not thing and also how many people I know are either expecting or just had babies and it makes me sad and angry.
In memory of Corbin Scott 10/28/11-12/3/11. Heaven got another angel the night you left this world behind Heaven got a little better the day it took you away from me Missing you tonight, see you again sometime For now I'll close my eyes and dream of heaven tonight I'll love you forever I'll like you for always Now and Forever My baby you'll be

I'm on CD17 of our first month of NTNP. I'm pretty sure we did not conceive this month.

No

It makes me feel sad.

I have a lot going on at work this week so that is keeping me pretty busy. I shouldn't even be on TB right now. I'm also wondering why ever since my loss, I started experiencing pregnancy symptoms from the point of ovulation until I get AF. This never happened before and it is really getting to me.
BFP#1 - 11/27/09 EDD 8/5/10, DS1 arrived 7/24/10 via emergency c-section.

BFP #4 - 8/29/13 EDD 5/12/14, our sweet rainbow, DS2 born 4/29/14 via c-section
I feel the same way. It's really complicated to think about raising your second child as the oldest because their big brother or sister is gone. I hate thinking about that, its seem completely foreign and it wasn't supposed to be like this.
Where are you in your TTCAL journey?
Waiting for AF to show for the first time since my D&E last month. Then, hopefully, it's time to get started again.
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?
Like I have mentioned (a ton of times lol) I am starting acupuncture tomorrow and will be discussing fertility/lifestyle and my losses with them. I also have my post-op follow up appointment on Wednesday with my Dr. and we will hopefully have the results of genetic testing that was done on my last pregnancy. So, I'll let you know how that goes next week.
QOTW: How does it make you feel to know that you are TTC a sibling to an angel?
It's hard to think about. I had a daughter. She died. But she was first born. I still struggle with how I will incorporate her life and her importance and my love for her with any future children I might have.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?
Going to my Dr. appt. Talking about this most recent loss. I just wish I could have a reason why this is happening. I wish there was SOMETHING I could "fix" to make it easier.
Exactly all of this. And I already fear the "how many kids do you have?" question and stuff like that. I already say we have a son but I think having another just makes it more complicated.

CD 25, 2nd medicated cycle-bloodwork on Monday showed I O'd this month!

No

Very bittersweet. I'm grateful for the chance to try again, but so angry that we have to be going through this process again so soon. We should have a 6 month old and TTC should be nowhere on our radar right now.

I've been missing Julian more acutely the last few days, I think for a few reasons: approaching the 6 month mark, TTC, close friend's pregnancy. I had a little bit of a breakdown the other night, and realized that it was the first time I had cried since Christmas.
