    I am really sorry to hear what you have being going through and the loss of your precious baby. I can relate to some of how you are feeling especially working with pregnant people and as there care giver it can be hard to get out it. Like Fiona said it feels like a real kick in the guts and why them and not you. I feel like I am in a similar situation so I can relate to how you are feeling and working as a midwife (or RN) really doesn't help work is no distraction from what is happening. Its strange how the grief feels like its getting worse. I think with time and when your ttc and it hasn't happened again in the time frame we want its an even bigger reminder what we have lost. Really thinking of you and you concieve again soon and have a trouble free pregnancy

    You are not alone. Your story is very similar to mine. I lost my bub just before 12 weeks as I found out at our scan. After I just wanted to be pregnant again so bad, but my cycle took a while to get back to normal. It took around 4 months for my cycle to get back to what is was prior to the miscarriage and in total it took 7 months before I got my BFP! It was hard to see pregnant women and every month that the test was negative was like a kick in the gut. But a month prior to falling pregnant I had to stop myself focusing so much on getting pregnant and relax a little so we went away on a little holiday and came back and I never got my period!
    It will happen it just takes time and when your body is ready again it will be your turn.
    I dont know if you are charting your cycle but I found using opks and taking my temps helped alot, I began to understand my body better.

    I am so sorry for your loss of your little angle. Take care of yourself.
