Hi! I'm Jen. I am just starting out on the 2ww. I had a miscarriage in March/April (it took a full month to complete) which was from a very unexpected but very very welcome pregnancy. I will be 40 in June and have 6 and 3 year old boys, the second of which took a year and one miscarriage to conceive. After our loss, we decided that we really truly have a space in our hearts for a third baby, as crazy as it feels to do this at age 40. So... I as excited as I am to ttc again, it was really a daunting experience with ttc baby #2. I got really obsessed and pretty depressed having it take so long (at my age I was considered to be experiencing secondary infertility). I do not enjoy the 2ww, and I'm going to try not to get crazy about it. I am very worried about not getting pregnant again, having a m/c again, or experiencing a child with special needs, all of which are increased odds at my age. I'm trying to meditate and stay calm and focus on the positive. So now that I've gotten those thoughts off my chest, I'm going to try not to say them again!

I look forward to getting to know everyone, but not too well on this board so that we can all move on to a pregnancy board together very soon.

Welcome. I am brand new to the board too. Sorry for you losses. We lost our 5 month old, Kaiya Rae, in November. She was our first baby. We are scared to the bone, but so excited to be trying for number 2!

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome. I get chills when I read about each of your losses. My heart goes out to each of you.

I just think there must be a very special place in heaven for parents who have to say goodbye to their children/babies. My brain does not comprehend how or why, and my heart aches with the thought of it, but my faith KNOWS that we are watched over and loved through it all.
