Recent Miscarriage

The doctors found out on Feb. 8 that I had a miscarriage and on Feb 9th I had a D&E, I was 7 weeks pregnant.  My husband and I had tried for 8 months and 3 months prior to me getting pregnant we decided to stop trying for awhile, so it was a totally shock when I found that I was pregnant. I had already enrolled and paid for a 2 week CNA class which started on Feb. 13 and the training center wouldnt refund my money so I decided to start the classes, they ended on Feb 24, and actually it was a good distraction for me. Now that I'm finished with school all i think about is the our baby that we lost. I've been having really bad anxiety, I can't quit crying, I can't sleep, I just feel lost I honestly dont know what do......My husband had been buying baby books, we had picked out names, and even started looking at houses to buy this summer.  I need advice please, I about to go crazy, even typing this my hands are shaking and I'm starting to panic, What do I need to do??? My doctor suggested anxiety medicine but I'm so sure about that.  Any suggestions???

I'm sorry for your loss, your grieving the loss of your baby and everything that encompases for you, everything your feeling is natural and normal and is part of the process, just give yourself time, alot of ladies go on to concieve again straight away but for others it takes time for them to heal emotionally, talking helps, I would try to stay away from the medication if you can but if you do find yourself getting worse then dont be afraid to go on it, things will get better and take one day at a time...

Stacy sorry for your loss.  What happen to you it happen to anybody, but we don't talk about it.  I lost 8 weeks baby, measured 6 weeks last week.  It's wasn't a first time, this is my 3rd time.  Don't give up.  when I start spotting I went to the dr. told me to come back, and bleed the whole week it clear it self our.  All three I went natural misscarage.  Did your dr. gave you option? but I am hopfull that you will, but as my dr. told me, for some people work right away, but for some don't so I advise you to wait 2 or 3 cycle before you try, the reason is your hormon level will be normal and your uterus will go back normal.  your system wouldn't get confused....
I hope this will help, but give it to god, he knows your need stay positive.....I know it's hard, but you have to convence your self.  That's what i did, it help me a lot...
good luck....
