I found this site about an hour ago and needed some friends so I thought I'd share my story.

I just recenty experienced a miscarriage last week. (I put June in my profile cuz that's when my baby actually died.) I just found out last week when I had u/s that bay had died at 10 and a half weeks and for the past 2 months I had no clue that I'd has a missed miscarriage. The first week in June we heard the heartbeat and doc said baby must've died within days after. My doctor insisted on a d&c since I had been carrying the baby for so long already. I was lucky to not have gotten an infection!  I guess that the hardest part of it all was that I was walking around for so long and not knowing anything was wrong. 

My fiance were both very excited and so sure that it was going to be a girl since we both have a boy already. I don't know if they could tell the sex of the baby that early but if so I wish I could've known. Since I "thought" I was 20 weeks we would've found out :0(. I really believe in my heart though that it was the baby girl we were hoping for. He wants to try again and I do too but the thought of going through that again is so scary!

Anyways, I've just been sitting here for almost a week now (since I don't go back to work til tomorrow, yeah!!) and was reading other stories on here and everyone seems so nice!   

Welcome, So sorry to hear about your loss.  I have never had this happen but I am sure many women on here share your pain.  I hope this site helps you. 

Thanks! I'm sure it will

I'm so sorry for your loss.  I had a missed mc in December too.  Luckily we caught it about ten days after the baby had passed.  It was horrible though, to walk around for three days before my D&C knowing that my baby had died.  Nothing can prepare you for the pain of losing a baby.

Take your time to grieve.  I personally wanted to get preggy again right away, but there are many women on here that took a break from TTC until they felt up to it again.

We're here for you if you need to chat!

A part of me wants to try again right away, the part that's not worrying that is!  I miss being pregnant haha! I still find myself walking around with my hand on my stomach :(

I am so sorry for your loss .

I have a really good friend who found out at 16 weeks she was having a baby boy after having 2 girls already.  She was thrilled!  I was shocked to get a phone call from her 4 weeks later that she was in the hospital delivering him!  She had miscarried shortly after that 16 week ultrasound and at her 20 week u/s she was told that the baby had no heart beat and had died.  I can only imagine how heart breaking that must be.

My thoughts are with you and your family and I pray for a future healthly baby girl for you!

In Feb I had a m/c. I went to my doc appt thinking I was tweleve weeks but after they found no heartbeat they measured the baby at only nine weeks. That was the worse part walking around for all that time thinking everything was perfect.

I'm sorry about your loss. I recently had my D&C on the 11th and is ready to try again but is afraid it will happen again. I can let you know these ladies are wonderful. I understand what you are going through and if you need to talk we are all here.

I'm so sorry for your loss,  I had a missed m/c myself in March, and have been really struggling to come to terms with it.  It really knocked the wind out of my sails.  I so wanted to be pregnant immediately, but it didn't happen so I am taking this month off of the diet and supp. to give my body a break.  I pray that you are OK, and good luck in whatever you decide about your ttc journey! 

I'm so sorry for you loss.  I also had a missed miscarriage in March, my second miscarriage.  It was so hard to go through.  I'm terrified to try again.  We took a few months off but now we're trying again.  It's scary, but I keep telling myself that after my first miscarriage, we conceived my DS right afterwards and everything was perfect.  There are so many ladies here who have been through losses and everyone is so supportive.  We'll all be here for you.  So sorry again for what you are going through.  

I'm very sorry. I have never had a misscarriage but your story touched me.

On the flipside I am shocked that your dr did not catch this earlier. 2 months! He is right you could have gotten a serious infection. I also wonder why his prectice did not do HB checks on you when you went to the OB's office. You should have had atleast one HB check in between the time your baby passed and the time thy discovered it. Somthing serious could have come out of all this and if I were you I'd seeka malpractice lawyer...especially if you end up having any complication after the d&c.

They did HB check on 6/4 and I had to cancel my July appt so I never found out til 8/13 that there was no HB. (So it was my fault not theirs)

I have had 3 miscarriages.  the worst one was nearly 3 years ago.  I had heard a heartbeat at a drs appt at 16 weeks.  I was scheduled to go back at 20 weeks and had an ultrasound scheduled for right before that appt.  A week before that 20 week appt I just couldn't shake the feeling something was wrong.  My midwife humored me after trying to tell me I was being silly and sent me for an ultrasound a few days earlier.  I found out then my baby was dead.  It was awful thinking how my baby was dead and I didn't even know.  How could I not know?  I waited a few days before I went in to be induced and deliver him.  I spent those days unable to get out of bed in grief.  I kept looking at my pregnant looking belly and thinking there was a dead body in me. 

 Trying again is scary.  A pregnancy will never be the same for you.  you will always be filled with worry.  I used to relax after that first trimester and after that happened I learned that bad things can happen at any time.  Now I can't relax at all.  I love being pregnant and want to enjoy it but I am just overwhelmed with fear. 

I hope you get your + soon and you have a wonderful pregnancy...you deserve it!!
