Its been a while now since i last dropped a line here. Im doing
relatively well but i still feel sore bout loosing my baby. Its been a
year now and i still feel afraid to try for a baby. Im just afraid it
will happen again and i couldnt take another loss like that! Perhaps im
just weird like that i dunno. Sometimes i still dream about my baby and
sometimes i even go angry or jealous when i see mothers with babies. I
know i shouldnt but i cant help my feelings. Just want to know what you
guys think about that.

Hi Amanda,

I think you are not alone to have those feelings. I know I have had similar
feelings in the past, myself. You are not weird in any way.

Try to be easy on yourself....and thank you for your update. It's good to
hear from you.

Hi Amanda,

It's not been so long for me, my baby would have been born on July 4th. But
sometimes I'm OK and sometimes I want to go up to mothers who are holding
small babies and tell them how luck they are.

Don't let the fear of this happening again stop you from trying for another
child. If you choose not to have a child, know the real reason, but fear
should not rule your life, period. It could happen again. You have to
decide ahead of time if you will be able to handle the loss if it does. And
you will probably be afraid for a lot of the pregnancy, because we learn
from past experiences. But try to embrace the pregnancy, because you want
to be able to say "I remember when I was pregnant with you...." and feel
happy, not regretful that you didn't enjoy the experience.

Hang in there,
CJ

It would depend how soon after you ovulated that you took the test.the
urine pregnancy tests sold in the drug store are pretty accurate and
usually can detect the hormone in your urine about 2 weeks after
ovulation or around the time your period is due,some of the new ones
can detect it even earlier than that,the earliest is about 6 days after
ovulation .However you may not be ovulating regularly or your period
may be late for other reasons.Its also too early for your uterus to be
showing so your stomach may be bigger for some other reason. test
yourself again within a few days to 1 week. If you keep getting a
negative result and think you are pregnant, talk with a health care
provider right away.

Thanks to you all! I really feel good when i can talk here to people
that understand what im going through. You know sometimes i go mental
coz loads of my friends or people in my surroundings are pregnant at
the moment and they always ask me so when are you going to get pregnant
your 30 bla bla bla they dont understand why i get upset about that. It
just hurts me big time. Sometimes im ok with it but other times i just
want to scream to them and tell them that not everyone is blessed to
get pregnant easily.

Love yas all and bless yas all

Hello Amanda
I was in Dublin for a year in 1998 and I loved it.
People can be very insensitive sometimes and its hard to keep up a
brave front when everyone is so intrusive.They are probably trying to
make conversation or something,unless they know about your pregnancy
loss and are just being jerks
You definitely should not feel that people need to hear explanations
about you,tell them something like
"I will have a baby when the time is right" and then switch the
conversation to sleepless nights and poopy diapers.
Why are they worrying about having a baby at 30?I am 32 and I don't
want to have a baby until I am 35.Women are having children later in
life nowadays,its not a big deal.
I have never even been pregnant and I feel jealous of mothers with
children.I even dream about having a baby(usually when I'm PMSing) and
wake up disappointed that its not real.
