I've been really busy and haven't really had an opportunity to post in what feels like a month. I do find these brief breaks from writing about infertility just as therapeutic as writing about infertility itself. I spent a lot of time in a miscarriage time warp. It was nice to let that go.
And it is officially gone. My last Bhcg was ZERO, or close enough, as I did not ask for the exact number.
Good Riddance, hcg.
I wrote about charting my temperature while waiting for the miscarriage to happen--to monitor for a drop in temperature that might signal the onset of the m/c. I continued into the cycle following the miscarriage, to see if I would ovulate and to (maybe) attempt to predict when my first menstrual period post-m/c will start (I am so ready to begin my FET cycle. it cannot get here fast enough). It looks like a ovulated somewhere between 26 and 29 days after the actual miscarriage. Fertility Friend says I am 9 dpo.
I am expecting AF any day now. I have my Birth Control Pills ready. If a typical FET cycle takes 8 weeks, that puts my transfer date in early May. It seems far away, but I'll take it. I'll even welcome the Lupron.

I'm glad that you can move forward now, the waiting in limbo sucks. I found the FET process to be much easier on the emotions. I hope it goes well for you.
I can't tell you how glad I am that things are finally ready for you to move forward! This was an incredibly long and painfully drawn out limbo.
Sending you good vibes for AF coming on time and prepping for the FET.
So happy form you Jill, how nice to have a plan, dates and the knowledge that you can proceed very soon. Wishing you the best in your FET journey.
So glad to hear that your levels are back to zero and you can finally move forward!
