Hi everybody. I'm excited to be joining you in TTC. We just had an early loss @ 5wks this month. It was not a planned pregnancy but after the shock wore off, we were pretty excited to welcome our fifth child. We had told everyone early, but out of the blue, I m/c @5wks without warning. I am not a stranger to early m/c, but his one didn't fit the usual - everything was going so strong, but well, who knows.
Anyway, DH has agreed to TTC again because I feel we now have someone missing and have a huge void that our lost pregnancy left... I am surprised he actually agreed, but he did. Woot! He may change his mind, but this is the best Valentine's gift I could have asked for! 
Anywho, bleeding just ended a few days ago. We're not waiting to try again. I'm not even sure of my cycle anymore - I *thought* I was a 13-15 day O'er but this last pg was conceived on CD17 so now I don't know. I guess we'll just have to wait and see~
Looking forward to getting that BFP with you ladies~

 Jo! I'm so sorry for your loss but glad that it helped you and DH realize you wanted to TTC again! I hope you get a sticky BFP soon! Are you planning on charting or using OPK's to figure out your O? Good luck!
Oh, btw, I'm Jacque, 28, and DH is Jason, 29, and we're TTC our first after two early losses in June and October.

Hi Jo and Welcome. I'm sorry for your loss but happy for you that you're ready to try again.
I'm Amy (32) and dh is Steve (46). We're TTC #3 after a loss this past fall. That was also an unplanned pregnancy that we then were so excited about...so I totally understand how going through the loss makes you realize that your family is not as complete as you once thought.
Good luck and I hope you get a very sticky bean soon!

Thanks! No, I'm not going to chart or anything, and really not get into the whole TTC thing from the planning side... I did that for two years when trying to conceive my second (our first) and I think it interfered. When I gave up TRYING to get pregnant, bam, bam, bam - three more. So, yes, I'm wanting to get pregnant and will do whatever I can to foster that, but no charts, no CM checking, no obsessing - just good old fashioned BDing! (And of course, trying to keep up with what my O date might be!) DH has used the w/d method for almost 2yrs now so he has to get used to the "old" way again, but we got plenty of time for that. I want to get pg right away, but if it takes some time, having fun along the way is fine too.

Hi . . . I'm Jenna. I recently experienced a loss at 5 weeks too. You should visit the NTNP board too. It kind of sounds like that is what you are doing. I try to keep an eye on things, but I'm not charting and all that either. . . .like you said, just having fun and trying not to worry too much.
