Welcome jojojoy - sorry you're in the same boat but lovely to have you on board. I'm of the try as soon as you feel ready school. Just shout if you don't understand any of the acronyms - we make up quite a few as we go along!
beaufies - how are you doing? Did you get any answers today?
meita - my last AF was really weird as well. Spotting for several days beforehand which I read can be linked to low prosgesterone levels which had me off googling far more than was probably helpful! If this was a one-off from your normal pattern, maybe it is still your body trying to correct itself (well that's my theory on optimistic days!). Very understandable about your meeting with your supervisor. It's funny, I've told no-one in real life about my m/c apart from my acupuncturist. I am so comfortable talking about it/TTC again with her and you guys, yet the idea of even raising the subject with anyone new would be a complete no no. I guess it just makes it more "real" in some way. I don't know, sorry for the ramble but I'm a private person and I would have mixed feelings in advance of such a meeting but probably feel a whole way better afterwards. Didn't realise your research was in that area - sounds fascinating (albiet probably a bit close to the bone recently).
cheepz - we have all been there! And yes, it only adds salt to the wounds when you only have an expensive test to hand (awaiting that magic BFP) and it turns out to be negative. Sending you a bucket of patient vibes!
louisesh sorry you had such a crap day, stomp away. There does get to be times when it is just too much. Congrats on the 12 lbs - you're right, it is about the bigger picture but the odd pound or two only seems to be gained when we least need it.
boodle you're just too kind - I think you only tested so we didn't feel lonely! Or you are addicted to peeing on sticks! Make sure you empty the bins this week so DH doesn't discover the evidence!
