Hi everyone...
I posted a few days ago for the first time asking how long you all waited before TTC again but just wanted to introduce myself a little better.
My name is Robin, age 33, I live in BC, Canada, was originally due Nov 07/08, but just had a D&C at 12wks as no h/b and can't wait to TTC again (but will try to wait 3 months). I really enjoyed being part of the Nov DDC but find it hard to go back there so I think I will join all of you in this forum to fill that void as I find myself on JM just about everyday and I'm sure it will be easier to take each day one at a time with all of you. I want a baby so bad and am devasted I lost this baby and almost scared to TTC again.
I have a couple questions...
How do I get a fancy siggy like all of you?
What does AF mean?
How long after a D&C before you get a regular period and ovulate again?
Is there anything else I should know?

thanks everyone and have a great wkd!! I will try too!!

Hi Robin,

I am so sorry for your loss. I was in the Nov DDC too but m/c @ 10 weeks. The Ladies here are full of wisdom and great information and support. I look forward to getting to know you and for celebrating your BFP when it's time to TTC again!

Hi Robin!

This board has really helped me fill the void. I was really a lurker on JM until joining my JuneDDC. When I joined my DDC, I started posting there a lot! Then, after my m/c, when I really didn't feel comfortable going there, I started spending my time on PL and here. These ladies are so wonderful and I have felt so comfortable here from the very beginning.

So, jump right in and get to postin'!

I look forward to getting to know you!

Hey Robin,

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I'm glad you found us though. The ladies here are very kind and caring. I'm unsure about your D&C question and I hope the link given gives you the right information regarding that. AF means period, as the other ladies said

I'm from BC as well

Hi Robin!

I see all your questions have been covered, but I just wanted to pop in and say I'm sorry for your loss and I look forward to getting to know you. I'm sure the support and wisdom on this board will do a lot to help you fill the void of your DDC and get you through your grief one day at a time.


Welcome

I'm sorry for your loss. I only just joined today and I already feel a little better.

I had a D&C and AF showed up 28 days after my bleeding stopped. I'm not sure if that's normal and I'm sure the link the other ladies shared will give you better data points.

I hope you're successful soon!
