TTC After a Loss

I guess it is time for me to introduce myself

I have bee lurking on here for the last few weeks, so I suppose I should make my introduction

DH and I are coming off of our second pregnancy and 2nd loss in just over a year. Went in for a u/s 3 weeks ago (7wk5day) and only saw and empty, sac, with very little change on a f/u u/s 1 week later. Thankfully my body took care of things naturally, and we are hoping to get back in the game as soon as AF shows up. 

I have taken this loss much harder than the first, I find myself resenting other pregnancies ( I feel like a horrible person). I work in an ER and tonight I found myself crying in the bathroom after seeing a 17 y.o who was pregnant. I resent the fact my unemployed SIL had a successful pregnancy while smoking pot and drinking the whole 9 months, yet I lost 2 while trying to do everything right. 
To make matters worse a friend I work with, who started TTC at the same time, announced her pregnancy to everyone at work the same day I started to mc. 

I appreciate you listening to my rant, I just needed to get it off my chest. I feel like people do not really understand unless they have (unfortunately) experienced a loss.

Re: I guess it is time for me to introduce myself

  • I so sorry for your losses. Creepy internet stranger hugs! I too had a very hard time dealing with other pregnant woman. Especially those who aren't taking care of their bodies or complain about being pregnant constantly. Good news is the resentment has finally started to fade, and now that we have been cleared to TTC I feel like their is hope again. Take time to heal and make sure to get the green light from your doctor before jumping back in the game. Best wishes and healing thoughts.

  • Welcome. I'm so sorry for your loss. It is super hard and emotional to see women pregnant and babies, but know your feelings are not wrong or something you should feel ashamed about. This is a very hard situation to be in. Hugs!
