Yesterday Triple S asked me when we could get pregnant again.
I am not too sure about that.

Serenity Joy almost made it into this world alive, but almost doesn't count. Her little sister did make it.
When we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present -- love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature and personal pursuits that bring us pleasure -- the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience Heaven on earth.

A subsequent pregnancy is now a terrifying prospect! I've put it off for almost a year now and my husband and I are not at the point where we can even talk about it yet. It would be nice to have a baby since that is what we all initially set out to do but it is so scary after a baby dies.
Much luck to you as you consider this important decision.
I know waiting until after the anniversary was the best decision we made. We were in a much better head space.
I don't know if this will help or not, but I got pg with my daughter the very next cycle after a m/c and D & C, (M/C 10/13, pg 11/20something, healthy baby girl 8/29) I know your circumstance is VERY different but I just wanted you to know it is possible to have a successful pg right after a m/c. (My m/c was at 11 weeks, and like yours seemed doomed from the get go). None of it makes any sense to me, none of it. You do what feels like what you can handle emotionally, physically and mentally.
But I'll be keeping things crossed that it happens soon and it has the happiest of possible endings...well beginnings really, but you know what I mean:)
The husband wonders why I am so hesitant to try again. He just wants me to be happy and he thinks that yet another pregnancy (and hopefully live birth) is the yellow brick road to happiness for me. And it might be, but I'm not so sure anymore...
Yes, I too want to wait until after February. I don't want to have to handle both at the same time.
I think for me the difference is, that, yes, I want a baby. But I am mourning Serenity, not just a 'pregnancy' or 'a baby".
I do think Triple S was stressed out with this last pregnancy, but not in the way that I am. He can go to work, and it's kind of off his mind. I was sick, tired and constantly thinking about it. It's not only the mental and emotional but the physical that weighs me down too.
Yeah it's really hard dealing with both pregnancy and grief at the same time. On top of that comes the paranoia and everything else.. You should definitely wait until you are ready. However soon that may be. I'm sure triple S will understand.
