Hello cyberspace!!
This is my 1st post-hope I'm getting it right!
Can anyone give me some advice based on heir own experiences please.
We lost our baby at 22 weeks after a congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) was identified. It was tragic. That was end of August. Clinically speaking everything went smoothly although it did take 36 hours of medication before the TFMR was done (I was told 9-12 was the norm)
My DH and I really want to get preg again ASAP.
I don't want to upset anybody who has struggled with fertility but the truth for us was that getting preg the 1st time was a doddle. We conceived our 2nd month of trying. I thought that it would be the same again this time......
Some other details.....I bled heavily for quite a long time after TFMR. It was on the high side of normal RE said.
My AF came back the month after like clockwork and my cycle has settled itself. I am getting positive OPK's although on different cycle days each month (day15-19). Obviously we are doing the BD deed! My AF is however much lighter now and last 3-4 days whereas before I was 1st preg they were heavy and lasted for 8-9 days.

Also I've got no EWCM going on.
I used to get loads of it before 1st preg but not a sniff of it at the mo. Could it be that my body is still recovering or should I be getting worried? I am 34 so want to get cracking.
Also, I work in the law, doing medical cases, my lovely boss gave me a still birth case yesterday. My baby was due to be born tomorrow. I am pretty angry so any words of wisdom would go down a treat. People can be so stupid-grrrrr Angry
Thanks everyone Xmas Wink
