It was about 6 months or more after Caitlyn was born and then I was anxious during Oscar's pregnancy. Since his birth I was anxious for the first few months but it has eased off again now.

My first mis, back in 2001, was such a fluke (found out I was pregnant AS I was micarrying--long story...) that I got back to normal emotionally in about two months.
Then when we TTC in 2005, we fell pregnant immediately and 1st trimester miscarriage. Then again in 2006 had another miscarriage--two misses in 7 months really knocked me for a loop. I felt fuzzy and disoriented for MONTHS afterward. In fact, it hadn't totally gone away (although it was improving) when we got pregnant this last time. And now that we've miscarried again, I can feel the disoriented feeling is back again full force.
Things like: going into a room to get something then forgetting what I went looking for. Having trouble concentrating on what people are telling me. Forgetting ingredients for cooking even though the recipe is right in front of my face.
In other words, you're not alone and you'll resolve this on your own timetable. Of course, if these symptoms are causing you a lot of distress, then by all means contact your doctor.
