Hello ladies. I am Liz, mom to Stella and married to Patrick. We are trying for number 2. I got a bfp a week ago, and today got confirmation that my hcg was dropping. Two days ago my number was 18 and today it was 3. My OB office told me to wait 3 months before trying again, and I laughed at the nurse and flat out told her that was not happening. We are trying right away. If it does not happen we are going to take some time off. That has been our plan from the begining. I look forward to getting to know you ladies!

I'm so sorry for your loss!!  It's such an emotional rollercoaster to go from pure joy to deep despair! My doc also told me to wait 3 months and there is no way I am waiting that long either!

This made me laugh. Sorry you had to end up here, but we're not all crazy.
Welcome to the jungle!

We didn't wait after Drew either. So many of us can relate to not waiting, or even just waiting one month instead of three. We were trying to give Drew an "Irish twin," but that isn't quite going to work out. Now we're aiming for having a 2011 baby. I'm so sorry about your loss I'm glad you decided to come here and hang out with us though, we're a pretty good bunch of gals to get to know
