: We tried to conceive for a full year before the doctor discovered that I have an elevated prolactin level. He placed me on medication and two months later, we conceived only to miscarry in less than four weeks. That was in February. Thus far, we have had no luck. In the mean time, two of my three sisters have announced that they are pregnant. I feel so distraught. I do not understand why this is happening. I am missing their experience because it is just too painful for me to listen to them discuss their pregnancies. I pray for strength, but I do not feel any stronger, just worried that we will never have a baby. I have a difficult time containing my emotions and find myself crying more and more often. I feel lost and in need of support.
Judi,
I feel like I could have written your post. I too am having a difficult time hearing of other's joys with pregnancy and children, as we just watch each month pass us by with no blessing. Not sure if it helps at all to know that someone else feels the same way. We miscarried in February too and as of now, no luck conceiving again. I worry that I cry too much but my doctor has told me it is quite normal after a miscarriage, even many months later like this. I want to believe that God has some plan for us and that in one way or another we will see his light again.
