I had a miscarriage two months ago and emotionally I am still recovering, but we also want to try again someday. I am scared and dont know what checks or lifestyle changes to do before that. How did you prepare after a loss?
It's completely normal to feel anxious and scared after a miscarriage. Acknowledge those feelings, don't try to push them away. Before trying again, make sure you've talked to your doctor about your physical health, and maybe a therapist for your mental well-being. Prioritise your peace of mind.
Oh, my heart goes out to you. It's so difficult, the fear never truly leaves. Please make sure you are emotionally ready first. Talk to your doctor about any tests to rule out underlying causes, and start folic acid well in advance. And most importantly, allow yourself to feel hopeful, but also to guard your heart a little.
Ho na, it's such a sensitive time. First, let your body heal properly. Then, definitely talk to your gynac and maybe get some pre-conception check-ups. Folic acid is a must, they say. And try to stay positive, it's hard, but for the baby, ho na?
It's a really tough journey, so first, be kind to yourself. Physically, try to eat really well and stay hydrated. Mentally, maybe talk to someone, a counselor or a close friend. And honestly, try to manage stress – that helped me even with the morning sickness.
My MIL always says, pehle sharir ko mazboot karo. So, focus on healthy eating, rest, and maybe some light yoga. My mom also suggested taking folic acid, even before trying, and checking with the doc for any specific advice based on the previous situation. It helps to have family support.
Beta, you must take good care of your body now. Eat warm, nourishing foods, and avoid anything very cold or spicy. My Dadi always said to drink a little haldi doodh every night for strength. Consult your doctor first, but also focus on calming your mind through prayer or meditation. Everything will be okay, just have faith.
Take it slow. Get a full check-up from your gynac, discuss your previous miscarriage thoroughly. Start taking folic acid tablets everyday. Eat home-cooked healthy food, walk a bit, and try to keep stress away. Don't overthink, just focus on being healthy physically and mentally, baaki sab ho jaega.
