My periods have never been normal I can go months without getting it at all, and ever since I lost my baby its like Ive lost my marbles..
During the month if I feel "off" or something the first thing I do is run out to buy a pregnancy test!! I know Im not preganant but I'll hope and pray pump myself up that maybe I am and then fall apart with its negitive.. Why do I do this to myself??

You have no idea how normal this is. After my miscarraige and the methotrexate I had to wait 5 weeks before my cycle returned. During that time I thought I had morning sickness and my breast were growing. It has been said some women wait up to 10 weeks for a period. And I think, just like our bodies, our emotions or hormones have a mind of thier own. Think about it: Your whole adult life you have believed if you don't have a period your pregnant. (In your case even more) That's what the pill does...makes your body thinks it's pregnant. Also we want babies! We want to be pregnant! Until it happens? I got a book. It's in my journal. It doesn't have to be that one. I sat on the floor at B&N and read the back of a few before I decided.
Hang in there sister.

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

    A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
