My husband and I had a miscarriage with our first pregnancy. We are totally torn if we want to try again or just take it as it's just not in our plans to be pregnant. Did anyone else feel this way. Part of me would be really relieved if he said he didn't want to try again,but part of me would be thrilled if he said he did. We were so excited when we found out we were pregnant. But the miscarriage was super stressful for the both of us. I worry about another stressful event or if we did get pregnant again something being wrong with it and it creating stress. Ugh. So confused.
I have had a wide range of mixed emotions about trying again since my loss. ( ranging from not feeling like I can go through it again, to feeling like I desperately need a baby, if only so that all the pain and suffering of the last year wasntw for nothing.)
But, with time and perspective, I have come to the conclusion I do still want to have another child. I am not sure how long it has been since your loss, but my advice would be to wait before you make a decision. Tw children mentioned
Although, my situation is different, as this would be my third. And after my 1st loss, which was between my two kids, I never questioned whether or not I wanted to try again, there was no second thoughts.
I'm still excited to try again. My loss was so early (5weeks) that we hadn't even gotten over the shock that I was pregnant yet. It helps to know that in most cases a miscarriage is nature's way of making sure we have strong healthy babies
