Welcome to theSeptember thread, ladies!!! This is a thread for those who have been TTC for a long time, whether 6 months, 12 months, or more. At this point many of us are at or past 1 or 2 years, many have had losses, many are dealing with various forms of infertility, and some are just in a waiting period until they can TTC again.
The name? Well, all things considered we tend to be a little bitter 
sometimes. So read with care 
. And due to everything, our emotions run a little 
raw 
like sushi. Too many cycles of BFN and CD1 sushi & sake to console ourselves. This TTC business is something that seems to "just happen" for so many...but we just can't seem to get it right. So this is where we can be together, share and express anything.

Welcome to September, ladies!!! 
) that HGCs can still rise with a blighted ovum, since your body still thinks it is pregnant... but then again, why did the bleeding stop... I am completely useless at work today.
for threadkeeper's luck! 
How cruel that the bleeding would stop and your HCG go up; that's seriously deceptive. Are blighted ovums ever misdiagnosed if there's an error in dating the pregnancy? Any chance you could be wrong about O time? Hmm.
