TTC After M/C
Are you trying to conceive after one or more miscarriages? How long did you (or will you) wait until TTC again?
Who or what has been helpful to you during your difficult time: faith, the support of your partner/friends/families (or did you find them unable to relate?), others who you now found out also m/c'd...

desiring twins after MC
Is it normal??? I have always wanted twins but more now ever since I had a MC in January I want twins more then EVER. DH and I are ready to start trying at my next O which is so exciting but I really want to have twin girls I already have 2 DS I know our next pregnancy will be our last so why not really make it count right? I'd love to hear anyones getting pregnant with twins naturally stories. I have distant twins in my family somewhere on my mom's side. Obviously i'm not going to get fertility JUST to have twins but its ok to be pray and be hopeful right

Miscarriage & trying to conceive
My husband & I have been friends for 3 years now, and back in January we gave things a try. We got married in april. We got pregnant in jan. and we were both wicked excited about becoming parents. In february we found out I had a miscarriage. It was the hardest thing we had ever gone through. But with the support of each other && our familys it made this difficult time easier to handle. After the miscarriage, i had a surgry done & we had agreed to wait a little bit to try. I got on the shot for birth control, and I was only on that for 3 months then stopped it. A little bit of time passed and I got on the pill. Ive been off of that since about august. My husband and I wanna have a baby, and we havent been using protection to see if Ill get pregnant. Still nothing. Im not sure if it has to do with the shot or the birth control, or if we just not doing something right. Does anything have any ideas or know anything that could help us?

Ways to cope after my joy is gone
Me and my boyfriend have been together for over four years. We plan to get married next year. We have been trying to get pregnant for a while now. After giving up we finally got pregnant and lost that pregnancy at alittle over 8 weeks.I am so devasted I wanted it more than anything to give it the family I never really had and always wanted. My cycles are so irregular so its hard tracking anything. Can someone please give me ways on how to get over this?? Its even harder to get over my m/c because the doctors say they can't find anything medicaLly wrong wit me.

All That She Wants (Is a Little Baby)
I have been pregnant twice (May 2009 and August 2010), but miscarried both pregnancies early on. Absolutely devastating. I want to have a baby more than anything in this world. After the first miscarriage, I didn't wait TTC; it took over a year to conceive. Within a month of using ovulation predictor tests from the Dollar Store we found out we were pregnant. When I miscarried yet again, we found out that our blood types were different: his rH factor is positive, and mine is negative, which is a big problem. I had given up hope on ever becoming pregnant -- or delivering a healthy baby.
It's so frustrating because it seems as if EVERYONE I know is getting pregnant or has kids. A good friend of mine just announced her pregnancy Thanksgiving - she and her husband have only been trying ONE MONTH. I'm happy for her and am praying for a full and healthy pregnancy, but it's not fair.
No one understands how I feel; I've had so many people tell me that "it will happen in God's time" (I know), "now wasn't the right time" (then why did I get pregnant to begin with?!), "everything happens for a reason" (...... seriously?) and even one "God didn't think you'd make good parents" (? like a SIXTEEN YEAR OLD would be a better parent?) So to answer your question, I found hardly no one to relate to. Standard cliches DON'T work.
Every month around the time of AF my heart leaps in my chest with hope...and every month I am disappointed. Mother Nature plays cruel tricks with a woman who is TTC, and she loves to toy with me. I am currently a week late, had some light spotting the day my period should have come. I'm going crazy, but I refuse to by a HPT until six weeks after my expected period. Even then...THEN what? If I am pregnant, I will be so scared and so happy - more scared than happy. If I am NOT, I'll only be disappointed and depressed. UGH.
I want a baby! :(
