My blessing and heartfelt love goes out to you. You can right now. Blessings.

You should see a doctor with that question. There may be something you might need to take care of.

Wait until you get married. Babies stress ALL relationships. They usually destroy those without the benefit of marriage. It's also giving your child considerable disadvantages in the long run. COHABITING couples are far less likely than married couples to remain together after the birth of a child, according to a report released today. Research by the Centre for Policy Studies shows that more than half of cohabiting couples split up within five years of the birth of a child, while only a quarter of those who marry after the birth of a child have separated within five years, and only eight per cent of married couples have parted. The report, Broken Hearts, Family Decline and the Consequences for Society, has been released to coincide with National Marriage Week and aims to draw the Government's attention to the disintegration of the family in Britain. Jill Kirby, a consultant to the social affairs unit at Conservative Central Office and the author of the report, said: "Unless we are prepared to recognise that the family is under siege and that marriage is under threat we can have no hope of reversing the trend and improving the lives of the children who are afflicted." The research also shows that children in two-parent families are far less likely to run away before the age of 16 and far less likely to suffer a mental disorder. More than 15 per cent of children from single parent families suffer some form of mental disorder - more than double the total from two-parent families - and 23 per cent of children with stepparents run away before the age of 16. In her report, Ms Kirby points out that 35 per cent of children live in poverty and 23 per cent of all British children live in families receiving social assistance. She calls on the Government to adapt its policies to favour of the family. "The nurture of children should be a primary objective of every civilised society," she says. "The perverse consequence of our fiscal, social and welfare policies has been to institutionalise child neglect. It is time for a new approach." The report claims that while 30 years ago it was exceptional for children to be born and raised outside the married family, it has now become commonplace. Then, more than two-thirds of British women in their late 20s were married and had children; now it is less than a third. She says: "The losers and the dispossessed are the children who are growing up outside the protection of the married family." (From The Telegraph)

I am sorry for your loss. Give yourself sometime to heal and in a few months - try again. Age is on your side. but your loss is real.

Lori, I lost my first comment. I don't understand people who don't believe in that "piece of paper" called a Marriage License. If you are committed enough to want a baby why not legalize that committment. I saw a common-law wife (legal in the state I lived in) care for a man for years & received nada when he died because his children fought it. It was truly sad and his children should have been ashamed of themselves but the common-law wife was left out in the cold.

Sorry for your loss. About trying again-why don't you ask your doctor instead a bunch of strangers with questionable knowledge? Have you considered getting married (and no, I'm not a Bible-thumper)?

Most doctors recommend waiting three full menstrual cycles. This can vary depending on your overall health and whether or not you had a D&C and how you've healed. If your blood type is Rh-, be sure to promptly visit your doctor for the immunoglobulin shot to prevent future problems with possible impaired fertility resulting from Rh disease. http://kidshealth.org/parent/pregnancy_newborn/pregnancy/rh.html

Do you both agree to have a baby? If so then try for as soon as possible, but check with a doctor to see when it's best to try again and also see if he can find what went wrong the first time.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You should discuss this with your doctor, but you do need to let your body heal, so that you can sustain a healthy pregnancy.
