Hello ladies, I hope you all had a great weekend, mine was good..I guess it helps when you are back in the game 
My update: CD5..I am so happy to write that!! In less than two weeks from now I will be TTC again!!
AF was quite heavy for the first 3 days, and I guess that was to be expected since it was my first since the loss but I think something good is also happening to my cycle because of this loss..
My cycles have always been on the longish side..6 days usually but after last year's loss my cycle took a turn for the worse and was dishing me out some 8-9 days worth! Needless to say I never looked forward to seeing her arrive (not that we ever)..
Now though it seems like she will be shorter this month..I am hoping that this last m/c has reset me back to 6 days (which is already long compared to some women) but I would be much happier with that than what I had been seeing!
Happy Monday to all!!

Vybe--glad to hear that AF might be nicer to you from now on...that would be great!
Kristin--so sorry about AF but hopefully soon she will be gone.
Becky--congrats on the weight loss...you should be proud of yourself. Good luck this cycle!
My update--or lack there of really: Its been a little over 3 weeks since the D&C. AF came back 5 weeks after both of my other m/c so I'm hoping maybe in a couple weeks. Had blood drawn for recurrent miscarriage pannel testing last Thurs. They called me on Friday and said that they had not taken enough for all tests and I went in to get another tube drawn today. Hopefully they got all they need and I should be hearing results in about a week. As bad as it sounds, I'm really hoping there is something wrong with me!
Also, we plan to attend a meeting tomorrow night about adoption--just a basic informational meeting at the library, but it helps me to feel like we have a plan and are moving forward.

Mel- 6weeks along already!! I can't wait for you to go to your first appt. as I'm sure you can't either! Feeling tired is a good sign, other symptoms should show soon..
Perry- I'm not too familiar with medicated cycles but I do hope that it yields you nothing but positive results!
Northern Girl- O vibes!! GL this week
Michelle- You have also been a pillar of strenght (in my eyes) for being so strong to go through this..((hugs))
I hope your cycle does not take too long to come back..mine took 1-2 weeks longer on this loss compared to last year's..I hope your test results bring you answers that you were seeking and that they may help you on your path to parenthood..
Becky- Awesome on the weight loss!! I should also look into some sort of plan to lose a few pounds..as they say we can all afford to lose a few, well I have my fair share to get rid of unfortunately..
O vibes and baby dust..GL this week!!
Kristin- I' m sorry that AF came to visit again and that she is not being a proper guest..I hope that with the start of spring in the air that some of it's magic will sprinkle itself your way..you deserve all the positive news there is to be had!
Me again: AF has returned to her normal 6 days as prior to last year's loss..today is CD6 and I am spotting..HURRAY for that!! I will cross my fingers that all the positive news from this board and all the great things happening with my cycle will end in positive results for me next month!!
I hope it is so for all the wonderful ladies here
Baby dust to all <3
