After finding out I was finally pregnant for the first time shortly after I found out I was miscarrying. I have really enjoyed being part of this community and being able to post but I feel there is nowhere for me to post anymore. cycle buddies doesn't work as I have no idea when I will be able to try again and I can no longer post in due date buddies as I am no longer pregnant. Is anybody else in the same boat?

Hi choicemom (I am also going that route), I'm so sorry to hear of your miscarriage, I've been there, it's so hard, especially going it alone. There are a few areas you can post, including the "Waiting Lounge", Clinic Chat threads (although those seem to be far less popular these days than they used to be), or even "Area 51" which is more private from public viewing. Stay strong, it takes courage to go this journey alone, there are a few of us scattered around these boards.
Me: 40 41 42 43 44 45, single, FSH 6, LH 2 (FSH not high, but exceeded 2:1 ratio), DOR (AFC 5-7, v.low AMH), all else normal/healthy.
After a difficult 6 year journey of everything going wrong, amazing baby boy born Dec 2018. Donor sperm + DEB-USA donor eggs. Detailed journey in 'about me'.

I agree with waiting lounge and Area 51 (if you have more than 100 posts). There are many here who have been through the same thing, so please know you are absolutely NOT alone! Im so sorry to hear of your loss... please be gentle with yourself during this time. Science has proven that an early pregnancy loss causes the same grief as a late loss or even a loss in infancy. Your feelings are valid and you are indeed grieving!

I'm so sorry ChoiceMom. I have definitely been there. Sending you hugs and strength. It's an incredibly difficult time.
It was long, awful & hard. We got very lucky and didn't run out of both emotional and financial resources. We saw some of the most beautiful of people in our lowest moments. Baby Girl arrived Apr 10/2018

It is a terrible road. We transferred our last 2 embryos of 5 in May from our fresh cycle in May 2017. We had a HB at our 7wk US however when we went back at 9 weeks (July 5) there was no HB. I was so surprised. I still had symptoms. It had to have just happened because it was measuring perfectly. I took two doses misoprostol. It worked fairly well. I went back for a scan this past Thursday and there was still some tissue. I have since taken another two doses. I have to go back next week some time for another scan. This has been a terrible roller coaster of emotion. It really isnt fair after everything we already go through.
Well hopefully go back for one more fresh cycle when we get the all clear. Thats the only thing that keeps me going is having a plan.
