I understand what you are saying hun. I was 21.5 weeks when I had my son Braylon and due to his lungs not being develop he did not live. Although it has been three months now I am ready to try again but I am still very scared bc I do not want to go through that again. I am staying hopeful and ready to try again. My hubby is very scared he did not take it well. Good luck to you and yours and you will be in my prayers.

Well for me, getting pregnant again helped a LOT in my healing.  I've had three m/c.  After my second, I got pregnant immediately with my son, now 18 months, and that helped tremendously.  Yes, I was nervous thru out that pregnancy, but i already had 3 healthy kids so I knew I could.  
My most recent m/c was in Dec, and I want desperately to be pregnant again.
Everyone is different.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

Most dr's say anywhere from 1 - 6 cycles is ok to try, but I personally think u need to take time to emotionally heal & for some women that can take years.  I've had 5 Mc's as well as still born twins @ 24 weeks. After each MC or loss I waited different amounts of time & never felt "normal" again before getting pregnant again.  I have learned over the yrs that having ppl to talk to does help u heal emotionally, so make sure you try to do that.

Good luck :-)

I just say give it time to mourn for as much time as you need. I accidentally got pregnant right after a miscarriage and for that whole pregnancy I was scared to death it was going to happen again and the one thing i regret was not giving it more time to heal emotional.  everyone is different but I think you should really consider waiting til you are prepared mentally to go through it all over again. good luck!
