Well, things didn't progress well and I had a D&C yesterday. The baby didn't seem to grow any bigger since I was measuring 6 weeks. When I go back to the Dr. in 2 weeks he's going to do blood work to try to figure out what's going on. I really thought this time around would be the "one" but since being wrong, I'm just an emotional wreck and am done for now with TTC. I don't know that I will change my mind any time soon, but who knows.
I hope you girls don't mind if I hand around here though. I hate board hoping and feel close to a bunch of you here.

I am so so sorry for your loss. I am lost for words.......I cannot imagine what your are going through.
Just joined this board recently but I am 100% sure everyone is okay to have you on even if you decide not to TTC anytime soon or all together. I am not sure how soon I will TTC again either. Had a D&C 28 days ago, waiting for AF. If you have any questions about D&C just post away. We are here for you.
HUGS

Im so sad for you, and just reading the replies brings tears to my eyes. This really is such a caring group of women. To me there isn't anywhere else to be, I know how you feel about being here. Its an emotional support that we rarely find outside of ttcal. You are always welcome here and in our hearts.

Thank you so much for the love girls. I need all I can get now.
DH and I had a talk when he came home from work and he said the most endearing things that just made my heart melt. He completely understands where my brain is right now and is backing me 100% on my feelings. I needed that talk with him too. I learned that he has a friend at work who has been in a very similar situation as us, lost twins and then went through some m/c's. It made me feel better that he has a man to talk to about things. Sometimes it's hard for him to express himself from man's point of view towards me and for him to be able to vent to someone close to him is reassuring to me. He needs to let his emotions out too.

Stephanie - I have said this before but I hate seeing you go through this. I have been where you are. Like Lynda said, "the first time i m/c's i was in shock cause it never dawned on me that that might happen, the second time I thought it would never happen twice and the third time i was just flat out numb" and for me the fourth time I was flat out mad and so over TTC. But I pushed my doctor to refer me to someone, got some bloodwork done, had genetic testing done and started seeing an acupuncturist. It took only a few months but it felt like SO much longer... and from somewhere I found the strength to try again. I think the desire to have what was so far being taken away in a cruel twist of fate made me keep going.
Take the time you need. If you get back to the place where you can see yourself TTC we are all here for you. If not, we are still here to support any decision you make. I don't post here very much anymore but this group of ladies never ceases to amaze me with their support and love of one another. No matter what you decide you will always be "one of us".
