Welcome to Ladies In Waiting. This is a group designed for all the ladies in the various stages of waiting after a loss: waiting to miscarry, waiting for AF to arrive, waiting to TTC again, and waiting for a BFP. Since this process is such a true test in patience, it is nice to have the support and friendship of other women going through similar experiences and emotions.

-Check in is every Thursday - New members: Post an intro and your current TTC status. - Current members: Post updates, link to your chart, upcoming appointments, prayer requests. - Weekly check-in's will include an inspirational quote or verse and a question of the day (QOTD).

Please do not worry if your name is not on the check in, I only put those that participated in the previous check in. Please make sure that if you get a BFP to PM me. I try to check PGAL, but sometimes I may miss it.

I look forward to getting to know you!

Love, Megrae12

Not much to report here. I'm STILL waiting for zero beta and AF. I've felt like a hormonal bitchmonster the last couple of days, so I'm hoping the wait won't be too much longer. I had a +OPK a few days ago, but who knows if I O-ed or not, since my HCG was still at 7 last week. Just waiting.

BookishMomma, I Ovulated the week my HCG levels came back at six and got my period fourteen days later! Perhaps this is a good sign you are within a couple of weeks of welcoming your monthly friend!

We are waiting for one more cycle (due on/around July 24th) and then we have the go ahead from the RE to start 50mg of clomid. I had obvious signs (IE rise in temp and CM) when I got the positive ovulation on a ovulation kit in June so I talked to my hubby about TTC for a couple of months without using clomid and he wanted to talk it out more through our trip to Denver this weekend. I've never had a rise in temp or noticed the CM previously so I can't help but think that perhaps we have a chance of getting pregnant without needing clomid. We will use the next few weeks to talk things through before making a decision, but for now we are actually looking forward to waiting until August before TTC again.

Hope your mom is ok! I'm waiting for AF to show her face! It's like consuming my life right now. I thought my cycle was back to normal but it turns out that it's not. I'm on CD35 with no AF and BFN's on all the tests I've taken. Never in my life did I think I'd be wishing for her to show up!

Hi all- waiting for AF over here. Well technically waiting for HCG to drop, then waiting to O, then waiting for AF. And hopefully after that it's game on! It's less than a week since my D&C so I probably have a while. I did just talk to a close friend who got AF less than a month after her D&C so who knows. Sooner would be nice. Chart is in my siggy although it's super boring right now....zzzzzzz

BookishMomma · July 2014

megrae12 Sending positive vibes for your mom. ((Hugs))

@DenaMaree all these decisions are so stressful! Hope you and DH can come up with a plan you're both comfortable with.

@lyndz333 Yep, I hear you. AF is being a bitch for both of us. I'm on CD64 over here... TP TP TP.

lyndz333 · July 2014

@bookishmama‌ - WTF, right? So annoying!

shandorfml2 · July 2014

Hope your mom is ok @megrae12‌ ! It looks like i ovulated but i had some low numbers post o...who knows. Im pretty nauseated right now...not sure what that means. Its the last day of my vacation (cabin on a lake with my family)

shandorfml2 · July 2014

@BookishMomma‌ i hope AF shows soon!

ImJessesGirl · July 2014

I guess this is where I belong for now. I am waiting to finish out this miscarriage after taking misoprostal on Monday. I am still bleeding, but not as much as the past few days. I hope that means it will be done soon. I will most likely be going in for a follow up ultrasound to make sure my ute is empty of all "contents" early next week. The doctor wanted to do that as soon as I felt the miscarriage was complete.

I have an appointment on the 14th to see the fertility specialist who will review me and my ute to determine what needs to be done, if anything, with these fibroids. I am more excited about that than anything because I have heard wonderful things about the doctor I am seeing. I have heard he is pretty great and does amazing work. I am just ready to have some answers as to when we can try again.

I haven't started charting yet, but I guess I should.

I hope you enjoyed your trip! FX this next cycle flies by and y'all are able to TTC again soon. Are you monitored when you are on Clomid?

Hey hun. Are your levels being tracked to zeor? It will prolly take a while for AF to show up, so be prepared for that. You can look in the blog and see what the average time for a lot of us. I believe it's about 4-6 weeks from D&C. ((Hugs)) and FX she shows up soon.

Hi, sweetie, welcome. I am sorry you have to be here. You should start charting b/c it is typical that after a loss, your cycles will change. Charting will give you and idea what is going on with your body and it is the only way to confirm you have O'd. Check out Fertility Friend. They have a tutorial you can read to know about all things charting. Our ladies here run a Crazy Train thread and they are resident gurus on all things charting. I hope AF doesnt take to long show up. ((Hugs)) sweetie.

@megrae12‌ thinking of you and your mom. I'm waiting for AF... Or, as @mpiemont‌ is, I'm waiting for hcg to drop, to O, and for AF... When I type it all out like that I feel like in waiting on the whole alphabet!

Haha, waiting on the whole alphabet is what it is for sure! FX she shows soon, that first AF is a doozy.

DenaMaree · July 2014

Megrae12 YES!! It was my RE who put me on clomid and he had me go in for an ultrasounds months 1 & 2 when we were on clomid in Dec/Jan/Feb to be sure that the clomid was working!! It didn't work in December, but I did ovulate with it in Jan (and learned I was ovulating early). As soon as he saw on the ultrasound I was clearly ovulating with it he didn't think it was necessary we go in February for the ultrasound; Feb was the month we got our BFP. When I call in first day of my cycle this month my RE will set up to have me go in for a ultrasound on CD12 as I was ovulating early with clomid before!! I can't imagine getting a prescription for clomid from a OB!!
