AF arrived today.  We're onto cycle 3.
I'm so drained by this all and can't help but wonder if there's something wrong. Do you think there is?? I got pregnant very quickly my last 2 pregnancies, now this....

I am so sorry that AF showed  I know it is unbelievably hard, but please don't worry. It is absolutely normal for it to take several months to get another BFP.

You only have about a 20-25% chance of actually getting pregnant each month, even if you do everything right. Three cycles sucks when you thought you were gonna have a BFP so quickly, and especially after a loss, but there's no reason to think anything is wrong

So sorry  Sometimes it takes our bodies a few cycles to get back on track after a loss. Try to keep your head up and not get too frustrated.

(((hugs))) I know it's frustrating, but hopefully it wont take much longer...I'm also on my 3rd cycle, and it's NEVER taken me more than 3 months to get pregnant in the past, so it worries me too.

I'm sorry for the BFN and the frustration. Just think that your body is doing what it needs to get ready for a healthy pregnancy.

I'm sorry! I was going to post exactly what Erin did. You have to remember that you only have a 20-25% chance of conceiving each month.
Hope this next cycle is it for you!!
