Miscarriage at 7 weeks 3 days. Taking a break.

I just had a miscarriage for the second time. I think I'm done for a while. My husband and I talked about it, and he's encouraging me to focus on things I enjoy for a bit and get emotionally ready to try again. I feel so numb now, but sometimes it becomes so real and I just break down. I know I wasn't that far along but we were so excited and I was so ready. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice?

I'm sorry for your loss, but I can relate to your feelings. I feel the same way right now.

Last year January I miscarried at 10 weeks (US showed baby died at 7.3 weeks). I finally fell pregnant again in October, but this lasted only a few days. And in December I was pregnant again, but I lost it at 9 weeks (US showed baby died at 6 weeks).

I feel numb and exhausted. Where I thought it would be a joyful journey to become parents, I am really disillusioned right now. So we have decided to take a break, a few months, to get my energy back before we try again. And to focus on the good things in life, which of course are still there!

I don't have any advice for you, other than to take your time. You, and you alone, can decide when you are ready to try again.

Big hugs

I had a MC in Sept. at 9 1/2 weeks. I know how you feel. We waited 4 1/2 mths. before trying again. I felt like I needed a break too. We just tried this month and we should know by this weekend and I'm terrified. I hope I don't MC again. Good luck to you!
