what is your opinion?

I have just lost my baby girl at 36 just about 4 weeks ago. It is still pretty tragic for me to talk about, but as things get easier a subject that you would thing would be a hard topic to discuss is addressed. My boyfriend and I are talking about children in the future.. Usually women who have recently lost a child find it either difficult to talk about, don't want anymore because they are scared, or if they do talk about wanting another child it is to replace the one they lost( at least that's what people think) I would never want to replace by baby girl.. I think it's more of a step taken saying that I do want to move forward from such a painful experience especially because in my case both the baby and I were perfectly healthy there was just an umbilical cord accident. For the question I want to ask though, how long should we wait to start trying again for another... I know I have to give my body time to heal also. But how soon is too soon... We just want to be able to start our family together like we planned.

I'm so sorry for your loss. They recommend at least one cycle but personally for me I wasn't ready for a year or so to even think about getting pregnant.

I would ask your ob about that. I would think it would follow the typical guidelines, no sex for 6 wks and try not to get pregnant for a year so your body can heal.
Im really sorry youre dealing with this

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss *hugs*. No one should ever have to go through that.
My advice...
Fix your relationship with your SO.
Then think about having kids together.

Well yes it's supposed to be the same which is a year so if I got pregnant sooner it would probably be a risk..
