Thanks
Thanks for everyone's thoughts and prayers during this difficult time for my sister, Kathy. I know she would probably kill me if she knew that I made mention of her and her situation over the internet, but luckily for me, she doesn't know about this website.
Kathy is dealing as best as she can right now. She just felt that this was her time and her boyfriend were really ready to have a baby. She actually talked about trying again in a month or two. Which, maybe I am old-fashioned, but I thought was strange. I mean, the pregnancy was something that happened, not something she "tried" for. I know she didn't try to stop it, but she didn't try to conceive either. I can feel for her heartbreak and understand the desire to have a baby, but shouldn't she TRY to get married first? Or at least TRY to get engaged first? I just don't understand why she would try to commit to a baby (on purpose) before she committed to her boyfriend and their relationship.
I feel it isn't my place to say anything, and if that is what she finds comfort in, I can't take that away from her right now. But, am I wrong in thinking that way?

I can certainly understand why you'd think that way. I think your sister may change her mind as she heals emotionally from the miscarriage. I know the feelings to be pregnant again are so strong right after.
She continues to be in my prayers.
I know when I had my second miscarriage I was so gung-ho to get pregnant again. My mom said the same thing to me as you are thinking about your sis. "get married, commit to S first." I couldn't even think about marriage, I was so consumed with baby thoughts. Then, I got pregnant with Lex and suddenly HAD to get married. Maybe it'll work that way for your sis.
The urge to be pregnant again after a miscarriage is so strong. :( No matter what she does I wish her the best.
