TTC After a Loss

Intro

Hi Ladies,
I have been lurking since my miscarriage on 12/5 so I thought that I should intro. DH and I have been TTC for 2 years. We began seeing a RE in September 2013. After many cycles of clomid, letrozole, and a failed IUI we decided on IVF. The day that we got our BFP was the best day of my life. We were the happiest that we have ever been for 3 weeks until our 6 week ultrasound. No heartbeat and no yolk sac. We were in limbo hell for 2 weeks before my OB decided to call it a missed miscarriage. I miscarried naturally about a week later. I honestly don't know what is worse, the depression of dealing with infertility for two years or getting pregnant and losing the baby. I had some very dark days after the loss and they are slowly getting better. I've been seeing a therapist for about a year because of the infertility depression and recently started taking anti depressant. This has helped immensely. Yesterday I got my first period post loss. My OB wants us to wait two cycles before we try again. I honestly don't even know what our next step will be, going through Ivf was so emotionally and physically draining that I don't know if I can do it again right away. Not to mention that we had no embryos to freeze so we would be starting from square one, which means paying OOP again. Thank to those of you who read my long post and I look forward to getting to know you ladies.
