Late Term and Child Loss

Sigh -Frustrated

Hello ladies -  Just a vent

On June 29, 2012 I found out my baby had no heart beat and that the baby had stopped growing at 6.5 weeks.  I posted on the TTC after loss board and was told about this board but wasn't active on the bump at all after that as I just didn't want to think or talk about "baby" anything.  =/   This was my second loss -I had an ectopic pregnancy back in 2008.  This time it was different though, I felt pregnant, I was ready to plan for life with a baby.  My fiance and I saw the baby's heartbeat around 5 weeks (it was amazing) -so to go back and see that the heart had stopped was devastating.

I'm just frustrated at the moment.  I had a D&C the same day we received the news.  It has been 6 weeks today and my hormone levels are still not back to zero. I've had to go for weekly bloodwork and was told AF won't come for 3-4 weeks AFTER my hormone levels return to zero.  In some instances, I heard it can take longer than that.  We were instructed not to TTC until I have had two menstral cycles.  We are prepared to start TTC asap, but this wait is so frustrating.  I have friends who are getting pregnant or are pregnant and planning for baby and it is just putting me in a funk.  Sad

  • Sorry ladies -it appears I may have posted to the wrong board? Post may be more appropriate for the miscarriage/pregnancy loss board.  Like I said, I'm in a funk -apparently in a fog too.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss.  No need to apologize.  I hope you're able to find comfort on the M/PL board.
