confused

I don't know what to do. I've been thinking alot about trying again but like I said before I don't think I can handle another miscarriage. I don't know if I want to go through the stress if I do get pregnant of fearing everytime I go to the bathroom and what I might see. Am I being selfish. I know other women on DS would not even have to consider trying again they would do what ever they had to do to get pregnant. I guess I'm just not as strong as everyone eles.

sometimes other people don\'t already have kids. you are in a different position because you already have a big family. not saying your loss was less, just saying others would go through so much more because they don\'t have any kids on earth. just wanted to show you the other side. don\'t compare yourself to others we all handle things differently. and know you are just as strong too. take care. love and hugs, meg

Just do what is best for you. Only you know in your heart what you can handle & what you can\'t. ((HUGS))

I agree, do what is best for you. You know what you can handle. Don\'t compare yourself to anyone else, we are all different and experience things different. Only you can decide whether to put your heart on the line again. It is a tough decision and you will make the right choice for you, and that is what matters.

Take your time...when the time is right, you will know. If you do not think you can handle it right now, then now is not the time. I can tell you that after 3, I am still scared, but it is a risk I am willing to take because I want more kids and I just keep telling myself that I can carry the pregnancies (I have two living children) so hopefully we have figured out what went wrong these last three times and this time is my time. It will never be easy to have a m/c and a part of me dies with each one, but the amount of love a child brings into your life makes up for some of that hurt, not replace the others, but fill some of the void. Good luck with your decision and take your time with it! HUGS TO YOU!

No, you\'re not selfish, you\'re just very fearful and that is perfectly normal. Take some time for yourself. Sometimes it takes time to build yourself back up! I\'ll be thinking about you.
