Hi everyone-
I came across this website researching and telling myself that what was happening was not what I thought (again). Spoke to my doctor and had to hear that yes it most likely is.
I’m not sure how I feel as this comes after 2 miscarriages, and 2 births. I’m going through the anger stage. anger at myself for not following mothers intuition and just testing early. yes i know there is nothing that could have been done but I really just wanted my doctor to say no you didn’t have a miscarriage, you weren’t pregnant. But she couldn’t say that, instead she said, “lets test your HCG and make sure the levels are back where they need to be”. I’m heartbroken. but while I write this I can tell everyone; it truly does become bareable. you’ll beable to share your experience with someone else when they need it. but its hard to take your kids to playgroup and all of the other moms are pregnant and joking about having a nursing station set up…but they don’t even know that you were pregnant.

I just found out today that my baby died 3 weeks ago at 7 weeks gestation. My heart is broken because this is the third time and I really thought I was going to be a mother this time around. I have to schedule another D&C and my doctor is going to have the tissue analyzed this time so she can see exactly what the problem is. I am 39 years old and fear that my eggs are just too old, which really hurts because I just started to ovulate and release eggs 3 years ago. I just don’t understand why this had to happen to me when I know I would have been a good mother. I miss my little nugget.

I had a miscarriage about a year ago. We had been trying for a very long time and when I found out I was pregnant, I was ecstatic. I was 7 weeks when I miscarried. I was totally devestated. The thought that I would miscarry had never even crossed my mind. I was extremely sad and angry for quite sometime. Truthfully it probably took me about 8 months to be able to accept it. It took us another year to get pregnant again. I am now pregnant and am at 12 weeks, but I worried and stressed anytime I felt a cramp or anything. Reading this article only reaffirms that until you go through it, you really can not relate to someone who has. There are physical and emotional aspects that I really do not think people understand until they go through it. It has made me alot more sympathetic towards anyone who has dealt with this. I feel for anyone who has been through this and pray you go on to have healthy babies.

Thank you so much for this website. I found out two days ago that we lost our baby at only 9 weeks. We are both absolutely devastated, since we tried to get pregnant for quite some time. I keep having terrible nightmares, where I wake up in tears. Just not sure how to handle everything, it’s all still so fresh. I have a feeling this website will help. It’s comforting to know there’s help like this out there.

Hi
I as well just went through a iscarriage and actually are still going through it. This is my second pregnancy and I thought that miscarriage was for other people but not for me. I was so devestated and I still am. After reading the section about the complete joy of pregnancy being gone – it confirmed what I. Was afraid of. I’m scared that if I get pregnant again ill just be miserabally scared the whole time.

I have just had a miscarriage during the last 48 hours. It is my second pregnancy, and after having a healthy baby previously, I wasn’t worrying about anything like this happening to me. It has been like a nightmare, but hearing other women’s stories have made me feel stronger and I am grateful to all of you who have shared. The words about the innocence and joy of pregnancy hit home with me, but I hope for all of our sakes we are able to feel something close to that again, as it is one of the most precious and beautiful feelings there is.

thanks a lot for this web site. it is so ture that no matter how far you went with the pregnancy, the emotions are the same. I am going through a possible miscarriage and this is my very first pregnancy. I say possible because my blood hCG level are not normal and I have pikinsh-red-brown soptting. I had my ultrasound just a couple days ago and i will be having one tomorrow. I am 7 weeks but just a couple days they said there was just a sac and nothing else. some times i dont know what happens to me, i want to be positive and lead a normal life but at the same time i feel guilty for thinking of doing so. i am so scared of trying again! truely the inocence and joy of pregnancy are gone.
i have so many questions for my doctor, i dont know where i will start tomorrow.
I never ever thought this could happen to me!
