Since it's a new ICLW...Im going to re-introduce myself to the blogsphere and anyone stopping by.
Name: MrsJoyner
Home: Indiana
Marital Status: Married since 10-04-08
Children: 2 angel babies
TTC: Since the evening of 10-04-08
Blogging: Since May of 2007
A little about me: I am married to a wonderful man, Big E, and we have been ttc since our wedding night. We haven't been charting or using ovulation tests regularly, but we haven't been preventing. I went on BC when I was 15 because of immensley painful and wonky periods. No one ever told me being on BC might be harmful to your fertility if you stay on it for 10 years with no break. So, when I went off in November of 2007 (because my then doctor said it would take a year to get a regular cycle) I figured there's no way it would take that long. Flash forward to now. I've had a regular cycle in Nov/Dec/Jan of 07, then no period until May/June/July of 08, then nothing until..wait for it..my HONEYMOON, in October of 08 and then a regular cycle that started on November 6th. Then, 2 weeks ago a positive test. Elation!! I was planning on telling my husband and our families for Christmas. Then Friday, immense cramping and bleeding. The pregnancy ends at 6wks1day. Im still bitter. This is my 2nd miscarriage, the happening on December 19, 2002, when I was 19 and it was hugely devastating for me then to. I don't do well with loosing babies. So thats me in a nutshell. Usually Im pretty happy-go-lucky but lately, it's Mrs. Bitter Bitch. Was that a long enough introduction for everyone? Hopefully I didn't scare you off. Welcome again.

Wow, thanks for the introduction, that really helped.
Congrats on your marriage, but I'm sorry to hear about your losses.
I have PCOS and was on the pill for 10 years straight (except for 1 month when I stopped to experiment and see if I would ovulate, I didn't) and when I finally went off to TTC I ovulated for the second time in my life after about 6 weeks and haven't since! Unfortunately my husband was out of town. So the point of my story is that the pill can actually be help fertility (because it regulates me). So far the pill has done more for me than clomid.
Have you been checked for PCOS? Irregular cycles are very common with PCOS. Sorry if you have already checked into this.
Good luck baby making. ICLW.
I am so sorry you lost your baby. I'm sending you lots of thoughts and hugs your way.
HUGS,

Hi from a fellow Hoosier!! I am sorry for your recent loss. I am in a similar boat in that I think part of my if has been caused by starting the BCP so young and being on it for so long.
GL to you...I couldn't tell whether you'd been referred to an RE yet or what your protocol is, but I'll look forward to checking in once in a while...
Back from ICLW...I'm so sorry for your losses. I hope things get straightened out soon and you can get your BFP. Christmas Blessings to you.
I am sorry to hear about your loss. I have been reading IF blogs, but just recently started my own. I like how I can get my thoughts and emotions out and not hurt anyone's feelings.
This is the worse time of year for all this pain. I am so sorry for you.
I'm so sorry for your losses. I had a m/c on Thanksgiving day last year, so I think I can safely say the holidays are a particularly sucky time to lose a baby. Not that there's a good time to lose a baby--but if suck can get piled on suck with a cherry on top, the holidays are surely it.
I am so very sorry you're going through this. My heart goes out to you and your husband. Take good care.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I am in the same boat and I feel for you and the pain I know you are in. I, too, had an elaborate plan for telling family at Christmas. It's just really sad. So sorry.
I'm here from ICLW.
I'm so sorry for both of your losses...
Oh yeah, and I'm a fellow Hoosier as well:-)
hello, thanks for the intro! I am so sorry! I too just suffered a miscarriage the day before Thanksgiving(sad huh?) It's been two weeks since my D&C. I understand exactly what you mean about being a Bitter Bitch. I am in danger of becoming one every day! Stay strong! You can get through this!
