Thanks Dara! I really hope you don't have long to wait. I got pregnant with Spud the cycle of a m/c. (and it was in no way connected to why I lost him).

Here's the thing though.............I don't have a clue when or even if I am going to ovulate this cycle. With my cycles usually around 38 days, I was ovulating around cyclae day 21 or 22. Do I start counting my cycle days from the day that I had the miscarriage or when?

I always counted from the first day of the m/c. If your not using them, I'd recommend opk's, just so you can confirm. Some women ovulate after a m/c others don't, until the start of the next cycle. Because your loss was fairly early, you body may treat it as a regular cycle. Later losses is when it can really start playing havoc.

Sam I REALLY hope you get a BFN soon so you can get a BFP!!! (It feels so weird to say that, lol)
I am waiting for a BFP. I tested today at 11 DPO and got a lousy BFN. I'm losing hope but I know I'm not out yet. I've had a lot of "symptoms" this time around...heartburn, fatigue, ridiculous crankiness, and now my breasts are tender. These, along with a good looking chart have my optimism up too much. I hate that!
Dara, I was 6weeks when I had my m/c and I did end up ovulating. It was about a week later than what it normally had been, but it happened. I hope the same goes for you. I agree with Sam about using OPK's and also about counting the first day of m/c bleeding as CD 1. Good luck!!! Keep us posted on how you're doing!!

Sara!
You know the old saying......."You're not out until the witch shows!!"
I soooo hope this is it for you!!! You sooo deserve your BFP!!
When I logged on to FF, I entered cycle day 1 as the day of my miscarriage, and that's when it gave me the date of Labor Day weekend for my next O date, so I hope you are right. That would be cool if we could all slide right on in to the May DDC together!!

Thanks Dara!! Unfortunately, my temp took a nose dive this morning so I'm not feeling so optimistic. It is weird that it's dropped so much at 12 DPO and I really hope my LP isn't getting shorter (it's usually 14 days..although the last few months it's been 13). I would love it if it's an implantation dip, but I highly doubt it. Sooooo....now to wait for AF and get going again next cycle.

I really hope you get that BFN tomorrow so that you then get a BFP!! I assume the trigger shots give you symptoms so you aren't sure what is the shot and what is real?

I got a BFN!!! So craze begins. And yes the stupid trigger shot gives you a lot of pregnancy symptoms. I had fake m/s, sore boobs and was emotional as all hell. Doesn't help that you have all the hormones from the fertility meds, then hit it hard with the HcG. Although I really do hope those symptoms come back next week!

I had opened a bottle of white wine about 3 or 4 days before I found out I was pregnant...................I only had about half of a glass.
The night that I had the miscarriage.................I finished the rest of that same bottle. I figured I had a right. I knew I had lost the baby, so I figured I would try to drown my pain and sorrow. Needless to say, DH never even said a word. I never have more than 1 glass at a time, so for me to drink litterally a whole bottle, he knew I was crushed by my loss of our baby.

I didn't end up getting drunk afterall. I hung out with my brother and then went to bed early. BORING!! LOL! But...at least I got a great night's sleep and don't have a hangover! Dara, I hear you on the bottle of wine thing. I did the same thing when I had my loss, only I went to a friend's house and had some crazy delicious mixed drinks that she makes. She makes this thing called Slush and it has whiskey and oj concentrate and some other stuff I think...you freeze it and then when you're ready to drink it, you scoop it out and pour Sprite (or equivalent) into it for some fizz. I guess it's a Wisconsin/mid-west thing which is where she's from. It is amazing!
