How long did it take you to bounce back from your miscarriage?

I had a miscarriage in the beginning of November last year, and I felt like I was under a black cloud for a very long time. I'm now finally starting to come out of it, and am healing mentally.
What have you done to heal and get past this difficult time?

I miscarried in June of last year and 6 years ago. To this day, I still hurt. There are twinges of pain here and there. I cried for two days when my due date arrived. I cry at Christmas time because I hang 2 ornaments for the 2 children I lost...I hang them right along with my two healthy kids' ornaments. My miscarried babies are apart of me and they always will be.

I'm sorry for your loss. I also had a stillbirth in November. Prior to that I had 4 first trimester miscarriages. Each one was devastating. I am now on Prozac. This has helped me to heal, but I don't want to be on it forever. I have also found that counselling, reading books, ordering pamphlets from www.centering.org was helpful. Time does also do it's part in healing, but truly the only way you will really heal is having a baby. Even then you will always remember the due date.

I am sorry for your loss. It sometimes takes awhile to get over. I had a misscarriage on January 31st 2002. The anniversary date is coming up in a few days. Its something that I will never forget. But it does not upset me anymore. I won't let it. I had a loving boyfriend and wonderful friends to get me through it. I blamed myself at first but I realize now that it was not my fault. You will get through it. Good luck to you.

It took me a long time to get over my miscarriage.. Time is the best healer and also remember that god does wverything for a reason. I also remind myself that my child's spirit will always be watching over me. Most of all I had the suport of my family.
