Loosing perspective...
I got pregnant on our first try in January, then miscarried in March. This will be our fifth month trying since the mc and I'm suddenly so jaded and defeated. I'm not usually this bad, but I'm having a hard time staying positive about it all. I have to keep reminding myself that it's ONLY been 5 months. I guess there are a few milestones coming up - my due date was late Sept/early Oct, October will be a year since I went off BCP, and I last summer was when DH and I really agreed that we were going to start TTC soon. When I think back I guess it just makes me realize that even though I didn't think it would happen right away, I guess I didn't think we'd be in the exact same position we started nearly one year later.
Sorry about that. I'm just feeling a bit down the past couple of days and needed to get it out.

Re: Loosing perspective...
i cannot possibly imagine how you feel, as I have never miscarried, but i wanted to support you.
i tend to live with a 'everything happens for a reason' philosophy and i have to be honest, with TTC, it's testing my will to that theory BIG TIME.
I can tell you that my doctor told me that if we had sex on the RIGHT days, every month for a year, our chances of conception are only 50%..so that is against us from the start.
if you need anything, please, reach out!

Re: Loosing perspective...
i am in the exact situation as you i know how you feel
i got pregnant in January also, but lost my baby in May.. we got pregnant after the first try.. and if i get AF in the next day or so.. i will be going onto my 4th cycle. i feel VERY defeated, and feel that i have a long journey ahead of me.. i try every day to stay positive, but its a constant battle. its very hard after a loss. especially when it was your first.
i hope we both get our miracle soon... 
just know that you are not alone.. even though sometimes i think i am..

Re: Loosing perspective...
I know how hard it is...I have lost 3 pregnancies in total...I have just past one of the dates I was due in June and now I'm approaching another when I was due NOvember 4. We are seeing a RE and doing IUI this month..again.
It's hard not to lose hope, you have bad days and good days, I'm not going to lie to you. But the good will outweigh the bad.
Good luck!

We got pregnant on our first try and lost it also. 
Our time will come. I know it is so hard, but don't give up hope!
