Feeling low

[Charjam1]

So had a mc in sept, very early. But ever since I am feeling very low and upset about it all. Friends are announcing their pregnancies and it's making it seem all the More real. We would most definitely like to start trying again, but are both scared of it happening again, any advice?? Xx

It's normal for it to take a long time to feel better about losing a baby. Pregnancy announcements all around you don't make it any easier, I would think most of us have succumbed to the green-eyed monster at times.
The reality is that after one miscarriage you have the same chance of a successful pregnancy last time as someone who has never been pregnant - about 85%. Obviously your anxiety levels are likely to be higher. When you get to the stage where the desire for a baby outweighs the anxiety then you are ready to try again. There are very supportive threads for TTC and pregnancy after miscarriage on the conception and pregnancy boards, it helps to have others who are equally worried to hold your hand.
Good luck!

Thanks baking tins will take a look x

Sorry to near you have had to go through having a miscarriage. How you are describing that you feel is perfectly normal. It is scary trying again, and you are bound to be worried about it happening again, I know we were. You never forget your miscarriages and the babies that would have been, but it becomes less over time, you still might find things that remind you out of the blue of it and you feel worse again, but all normal.

You can't help but worry when you become pregnant again. It's normal and there's not anything you can do not to worry. But if that worry caused miscarriages no-one would ever have a baby who has been through miscarriage.

I wish you the best of luck for the future.

Thank you that's a really good point, feeling a a bit more positive today xx
