Does anyone else not want to try again?

Question

I can't even describe how disappointed I am to lose this pregnancy. I can't fathom trying again. I just want to find some peace in something else. I'm thinking of starting to run. Maybe committing myself to becoming vegan. I can be kind of extreme with my feelings, I guess. Anyone else wanting to pick up a hobby or try a new life style while they heal?

Answer

I felt the same way after my first miscarriage. It is very hard. You will know when/ if you are ready to try again.

Getting pregnant the second time helped me, however I miscarried at 16 weeks. I have decided to wait at least 6 months to clear my head and recover. It is a difficult thing to lose a baby.  Just take some time. You will know when the time is right.

Answer

Totally hear ya! Keeping busy and working out have been keeping my mind off of it all and i just feel better then. Terrified to try again but I still want to...

Answer

Nichole, you hit the nail on the head. This is exactly how i feel. We miscarried our first last September and ever since I have been battling an internal battle daily. I feel like the thought of getting pregnant again consumes me, but I honestly am too terrified to do it again. So I have committed to working out, and eating right. I have also gone as far as finding new pieces of furniture to fill our home. . . Just looking for things to soothe my wanting heart.

Answer

Sometimes taking your mind off it helps but make sure you allow yourself time to grieve.  I said the same thing.. If I lose this pregnancy I  will never try again. Time may chance your mind though. I see alot of women who make themselves a scrapbook or a shadow box to help with the loss. I'm sorry.
