If you're trying to have a baby, you may have heard that after enduring a miscarriage, your body is more fertile. Unfortunately, according to a recent article in The New York Times this is just a rumor. While it's true that your progesterone levels (the hormone that helps with pregnancy) are elevated, there's no evidence to support the notion that it can help you conceive any faster.

With so many of my girlfriends getting married and starting families, I definitely have babies on the brain. While I've been told that it's better to wait three months to tell everyone, when I finally do have a bun in the oven I think I'll be too excited to keep it a secret. I'm well aware that problems can happen (and are common), so if by chance I have a miscarriage, I'll need my friends' and family's support to get through it.

Dear Sugar,
I have been having an off-and-on affair with a married man. I know that it's wrong, and we've been trying to stop, but I recently had a miscarriage — I didn't even know that I was pregnant — and he is the only man that I've been sleeping with. My emotions are completely mixed up.

Dear Sugar--
Last year I unexpectedly got pregnant while on birth control. At the time I had been dating the father of my baby for over five years, and he beamed with pride when he saw the first ultrasound, but I was very young (22) and wasn't sure how to tell my conservative family. When I was only 7 weeks pregnant, I had a miscarriage.
