  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I miscarried at 5 weeks earlier this month, the doctor said we were ok to start trying again. I would check with your doctor for the physical reasons.

Mentally/emotionally... that's a lot different. There is a high level of fear that I have that it will happen again. You may just want to take some extra time to really grieve the loss before starting up again.

I want to wait six months. My husband doesn't really want to wait that long but he's okay with it I guess. I would imagine my doctor will tell me 2 months or so which is fine since we plan to wait even longer. I see her in three weeks and she'll tell me when it's okay to resume "activity" if you know what I mean. I'm still feeling very sore and I usually have a difficult time with healing so it could take a while. I'm on a board for pregnancy loss and it seems a lot of those women try again the minute they get the "okay". I just don't feel up for that.

I think that whatever you and your husband decide on is what's best. It's a lot to process- your body needs to heal, your heart needs to heal and so on. Just because the doctor says you're "okay" doesn't mean you have to, by any means. Every woman is different.

I pray that you continue to heal, both physically and emotionally. Take time to grieve the loss. Don't let anyone try to tell you you're grieving the wrong way, or that "you should be over it by now" etc.. You and your husband experienced a significant loss. Praying for you!! :prayer:
