Sort of feel like I don't belong anywhere.

I am posting here, because even though I've found great support on the miscarriage/pregancy loss board, I feel like what I experienced was different. I guess it's called a "late miscarriage?" But, I feel like since I didn't actually deliver my baby it isn't termed as what people here have experienced either. It just doesn't feel the same as an earlier miscarriage. Ugh, I don't know. I'm sorry if I shouldn't be posting here I just feel like I'm stuck in between and don't totally belong anywhere.

I'm so sorry for your loss. You're welcome to post here - you belong where you feel most comfortable. If that is here with us, please join us (although I'm sorry you're here).

I am so sorry for your loss, and you definitely belong here if you feel comfortable! I believe there are a couple of other early second tri loss mommas on here and maybe even someone else who chose a D&C. We all have "unique" situations and are all very supportive of each other. I hope you can find some peace and comfort here. I was actually on the miscarriage/pregnancy loss board at first (before this board was created) and I know how you feel about not fitting in there. Those losses are mostly in the first few weeks of becoming pregnant and the bond that forms in the weeks to come is different than those with early losses experience.

I am so sorry for your loss. We have a lot of different situations and if you don't feel comforable on he other board than post over here.

These women are amazing and I actually think here are a couple of losses at 15-17 weeks in this group.

I am so so sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss. The title of your post is totally how I feel in life most days, so I understand. I find tremendous amount of support here and I hope you do too. I'm sorry, ((Hugs))

I am so sorry for your loss. I am on the earlier side of many of the losses women on this board have experienced too and at first wasn't sure if I belonged here either. And I can certainly understand the feeling of not quite fitting in on the miscarriage/pregnancy loss board. I lurk there sometimes but have noticed as a previous poster said that many of the losses women on that board have experienced seem to have been very early. I don't think that the fact that you had a d&c rather than delivered should dictate where you should post. As others said If you relate best to the posters here then you should post here.

My loss was much later (23w6d) but I opted for a D&E. Please don't feel that you don't belong just because you didn't deliver. I am so sorry for your loss.

Thank you everyone for being so wonderful and supportive. I appreciate that you all make me feel welcome, even if there were some differences to my loss. It also really helps me to hear your understanding of my feelings on my loss being different than most of the women on the other board. The sense of bonding that I had gotten is exactly the reason. Again, I greatly appreciate all of your support and am SO SO sorry for all of your losses. Thank you so much.
