TTC After a Loss

Introduction

Hi everyone! I've been lurking on the boards for awhile now, and wanted to finally introduce myself. A little about me: Married in July 2013, tossed the BC in August 2013. AF absent for 5 months (after many tests, no explanation), and finally returned in January. We actively avoided for 2 months to give my cycles a chance to regulate. On our second cycle actively TTC we got our BFP (5/17/14; EDD 1/26/15). A MMC was found at 8.5wks (embryo measured 6.5wks, no HB). D&C was 6/26/14 and was relatively uneventful, but about 5 days after I started bleeding very heavily and passing large clots. They started monitoring me after that, both via TV/US (they suspected retained tissue) and weekly hCG checks. I'm happy to say my last US showed no evidence of retained tissue, although now I have a hemorrhagic cyst...ugh! I'm trying to be optimistic that this at least shows my body is trying to bounce back and ovulate. As of this past Monday my hCG was down to 9. Hoping it zeroes out this coming week! Waiting on AF still. We are really looking forward to start TTC again. Despite making some peace with our loss, I have found that the D&C aftermath is much more difficult than I expected. It depends on the day, but sometimes seeing pregnant women or babies will make me tear up. I also find that it's really difficult to talk to people about this if they have never experienced a loss before. So I'm looking forward to finding some support here as we move forward, and offering my support to you all!
