How to deal with depression while waiting to get pregnant again.

My miscarriage was back in January.  I thought the best way to get past the miscarriage would be to get pregnant again ASAP.  But that was not to be.  I found out that I had really low progesterone (0.03) almost non-existent.  That is most likely why I lost my baby.  My doctor and I have taken steps to raise my progesterone so hopefully I should get pregnant anytime now.  But it is SO HARD! Does anyone out there understand? I'm sure a lot of you do.  Please help me if you can give me any comfort.  It's not a loss that gets better over time.  It gets worse and worse again because every month I face disappointment.  I'm afraid that I've fallen into depression.  I have a wonderful daughter (3yrs old) and I love her so much.  I feel guilty sometimes that I can't just be happy because I have her.  I still want another baby soooo bad.  Please help.  What has worked for you?

    I'm so sorry you are having such a rough time - have you considered meeting with a grief counsellor?
