SOOOOOOOO Preoccupied

have been told since I was 17 years old that it would be very difficult for me to have children. At the time, it seemed so far away as I wasn't considering starting a family. I always knew I would want to. I have PCOS and have always been very irregular.

I'm now in my late twenties and have recently married a wonderful man. He wants a family so badly. We started trying even before our wedding and figured what ever happens happens. I found out that day after our honeymoon that I was pregnant. I was over joyed, but quickly felt as though something bad was going to happen. I prevented myself from being happy about it. I miscarried and was overwhelmed by my feelings. My husband took it very hard, therefore I was trying to be strong for him.

Several months later I find myself becoming more depressed and more obsessed about getting pregnant. I'm not even sure If I've ovulated since? People keep saying "don't worry about it" How can I stop being so preoccupied with it?

Hey wish I had an answer but I can't help from thinking about it every day. If you come up with a solution let me know. I spend days imagining what I will do and how I will feel if and when I become pregnant. Good luck

Hi

I think its normal....well normal for women in our positions to do this. Every day I think about what it would be like to be PG, just like you do. I don't think there really is a way for us to stop thinking like this. I wish you the best of luck on your journey to becoming parents!

I think about it everyday also. I have taken up some hobbies that are keeping me preoccupied and do somewhat take my mind off things. I have started making afghans and refinishing some antiques. I had to do something or I was going to go crazy - and take my husband with me. Hang in there girl.
