TTC After a Loss

Never Been So Excited About A Period!

To everyone else this seems super mundane and nothing to celebrate. Even though we're not planning on TTC for quite a while, I'm VERY excited to have gotten my first AF post M/C as of yesterday evening!

I'm also really proud of myself because, nearly two weeks ago, I thought that I may be ovulating, based on my mucus, and suspected that my period would be here around this time--so glad I'm in tune with my body and know how it works enough to be this accurate.

I also found my good BBT thermometer so I've started charting again as of this morning.

I'm really excited that my body is getting back to normal! :D

    Oh my gosh! You ladies are so wonderful. Thank you for your excitement!

    I thought a lot about my little girl yesterday, before I knew that AF was coming, I daydreamed about her coming to say goodbye to me--maybe she knows that now we can give her a little brother or sister to carry on her spirit. :)

    Ughh! My stupid idiot doctor is a stupid idiot! GAH!

    I had a follow up today and saw a doctor that I don't usually see (I've only seen him a few times). He was a big spazz when I started getting a little dizzy on the last day of my miscarriage and stuck me in the hospital for observation. Now he had me get an ultrasound today that shows that there's clots and blood and tissues in there and, even though 3 weeks ago I had a sono that showed NOTHING in there except thick uterine lining, he's convinced that this isn't really my period and that there's something HORRIBLY wrong with me.
    Next week I'm scheduled to go again, but I'm seeing my regular, much more rational doctor.

    I just wanted to scream at him and tell him to stop taking away my little ray of sunshine. Oh my god. If I'm not allowed to get excited about my period then what else is there!?
