Hi ladies!
I was recently diagnosed with a blighted ovum on 09/26. Two days later I had a D&C. I'm now waiting for AF. It says it takes 4-8 weeks. I'm hoping its closer to 4. Pregnancy tests are still a faint positive 2 weeks post D&C
Anybody else patiently waiting (or not so patiently) for AF?
If so, what are you doing to keep busy and avoid thinking about it?
Do you feel like your pre-pregnant self?
Are you planning to try again after the first cycle?

I know this isn't the best thing to keep your mind off things, but we're looking at getting another dog! I understand that it isn't always the best option for everyone though.
In regards to feeling like my pre-pregnant self, for me I don't think i'll ever feel the same as I did before my losses. It's just something that lives with me now.
Because I've had two losses, my dr says I should wait two cycles. Of course I'm eager to TTC, but I also don't want to rush anything if that would hinder a future pregnancy. Having extra time will help me emotionally too since I had my losses 5mo apart.
I know there are so many things to think about and decide. GL to us all!

The best distraction for me is work (I'm a vet). Caring for other lives and making a difference to them helps me forget about my own life and unfortunate circumstance.

@allowachick honestly I haven't benched myself either but i'm not too focused on TTC either. Kinda rolling the dice a bit. I like to gamble
@MimoCa Same here. Gambling
