    Unhappy I know its a knee-jerk reaction......

    but I want another bub, NOW, DESPERATLY.........

    When will this fade???? Will it fade???

    We didn't want any more after Harmony, Seven was a massive shock and surprise, and I must admit, one that took some getting over.

    But now, I just feel like I want to pregnant, NOW. As fast as i can, I need to be pregnant and have my last baby.

    But deep down I know its a knee-jerk reaction. I wish it would go away.... it makes me too sad, and keeps Seven on my mind 24/7.... not that i want/will forget, but I feel like my mind is giving me no peace......

    Jodie,

    I know what you mean - i have been fighting the feeling for nearly 4 months now -

    As it stands we will be back on the TTC rollercoaster as soon as AF goes - this comes after saying "no more, cant stand the heartache".

    We have given in and gone with our hearts because we dont feel complete. The feeling didnt fade for us. I guess each situation is very individual and i cant say if it will fade for you.

    I am sorry - i am sure this has been of no help whatsoever !

    I wish i had the right answer to help you out - sorry...I am really struggling to find the words....

    xoxoxo Take care

    Hun, I felt exactly the same after losing Emmanuel, I wanted to be pregnant again. We had fallen unexpectedly with him, we had decided to stop at 3 but after losing him I knew I had to have another baby. I can't tell you if this feeling will go away for you, I wish I could.

    Regards,
    Dianne

    Hun

    I know all too well that intense grief mixed with an almost overwhelming desire to TTC again. It was such a confusing way to feel and I know that when I fell pregnant only a matter of months after losing my son people just didn't 'get it'.

    What I would say is at the moment your hormones are still probably settling down, give yourself a chance to get through the initial raw grief and if you still have pangs then it may be the right to TTC.

    I'm so sorry you are going through this pain

    I know exactly what you mean. Ours was a huge shock,we werent even TTC. And now after we lost our little bub, all I want with every fibre of my body is to be PG again. But like you, I know its a knee jerk reaction.

    LOL my gp took the opportunity & innoculated me for chicken pox so now we have no choice but to wait at least 3 months before we try this time. Which I know deep down is the right thing for us at the moment.

    for you as I dont know how you can put those feelings aside, if it wasn't for the above reason I'd be right there chomping at the bit to fall PG again too.

    The same feeling has hit me as well Jodie. I'm not sure what to do with it, whether we should give it a try considering we have a 1% chance of falling pregnant naturally or if we should wait a bit. I think my heart is telling me to go for it though.

    its rd not to feel that way when u think about what we have lost.....
    you miss it, i know i miss feeling Gus move and u no i even miss the MS i had, hell what we wouldnt do to have it all back again....

    only u know the right choice for u and ur DH and u know what ive decided i dont care what other people think if we get preg straight away....

    mind u my DH wants to wait a few months before we try again, but im hoping once we see my OB he might change his mind

    I know exactly how you feel. After the loss of my twin girls I started trying 3 weeks later. Ob said it was OK if I was ready. I was so desparate to be pregnant again and bring that baby home in my arms. To also prove to myself that I was capable of doing it. I am sure this desire is a totally naturel one for all who suffer a loss.

    I am thinking of you,

    Hugs,
    Debbie
