Loss at 16 weeks

tiffyqt83

Here is my story....

I found out that I was pregnant at the end of March.  By then, I was already 4 weeks pregnant. I was the happiest woman alive!! My appointments and ultrasounds had all been going great, and the baby was going well. On June 16 while having a regular conversation with friends, I all of a sudden felt a large amount of fluid coming down my legs. At first I was so embarrassed because I thought I urinated on myself; but the fluid kept coming. I decided to go the ER...and they told me the devastating news; that I had lost all of the amniotic fluid and the baby would not survive. To make it worst, I was on a business trip and on the other side of the country. The baby still had a heartbeat at this time, but I was told that it was only a matter of time.  On June 18, I started to have cramping and a little discharge. As the day went on, everything went down hill. I was admitted to the hospital mid day, and had to go through the painful process of delivering my baby. This was the most difficult experience that I have had! I was devastated, upset, and angry. It is just so hard to u deist and what happened, especially because I had a healthy pregnancy.

After the placenta wound not deliver, I had to have a D&C. After the procedure, I had slight cramping and discomfort. This didn't compare to the loss that I was still experiencing. I am still grieving my loss and know that it will be a long process. It never gets easy, but I know that I have a angel in heaven.

For all the women who have experienced this, just know that you are not alone.

I am so sorry for your loss. The feelings you are going through are indescribable. I experienced a later loss as well, and it is hard to explain how much of a shock it is. You thought you were safe at this point. It has been 3 weeks for me since I found out, and I am still having a hard time with things. All I can tell you is the initial depression of this well get a little bit easier. And like you said, you definitely have an angel. Again, I am so so sorry you are going through this right now.
