Obsessing after MC

Sierra
I feel like some days I'm going crazy. It's been four weeks, I haven't had my first period yet and I'm having dreams of finding out I'm pregnant again. I think about it pretty much every day and wondering if I am or could be. Then the thought of "what if I can't get pregnant again?" Comes to mind and I start worrying over something that hasn't happened or is unlikely to happen. Please someone tell me I'm crazy and to stop worrying.

I feel the same way. We got pregnant fairly quickly the first time, but I was so convinced we wouldn't for some reason. And as soon as I lost my baby, that fear came back. I truly feel I will not start to heal until I get pregnant again. Best of luck to you!

Same here. They said to wait at least 2 or 3 cycles to try again. We are prob going to try late spring early summer

My baby also stopped growing at 9 weeks, I found out at 11 weeks....my doctor told me to wait until I had two periods to start trying again. So probably March we will try again.

This was my first and I lost it at 12 weeks. The baby stop growing at 9 weeks. We haven't tried yet, I haven't had my period yet and had my d&c; a-little over 3 weeks ago.

You aren't crazy! I had the same thoughts running through my head - especially the what if I can't get pregnant again. My OB told me before the D&C if I got pregnant once, I'd get pregnant again.

Definitely not crazy. I had a mc at Thanksgiving and feel the same way. The doctor told me that since they found nothing wrong except not heartbeat the next time should be fine, but I still worry about it. I'm afraid that I won't be able to get pregnant and if I do that it won't be viable again.

It's been recent for me and I still can't believe I am not pregant anymore I thought I was 19 weeks and he stop growing at 17weeks. When they gave me the news that his heart stopped I broke down. And I feel you I'm scared to get pregnant again and for it to happen Again. Or that I won't be able to get pregant again. I'm in so much pain that lost my little guy too soon

You're not crazy...I can completely relate to you. I feel the same way. I know it's always possible to get pregnant again and have a healthy baby, but I worry. I sit and worry that if we try again it'll end the same way. And it could. That's what scares me... But at the same time I am excited and hopeful. It's a weird emotional roller coaster and I don't think anyone can truly understand unless they've been through it. :/
