Hi, my name is Lexi and I miscarried last week, 2 days shy of 11 weeks. I still feel emotional about it and a friend of mine suggested I post on here. I feel like no one understands that I already loved this child even though it was still early. I guess I'm just looking for someone to talk to.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I definitely know how you feel. I want another child so badly I can't stand it and I've lost two this year already. I found out friday i had a missed miscarriage. I was 12 weeks, but the baby stopped growing at 9, then I had a d&c 6 hours later. It all just happened so fast.
Even though it's so early, it's like as soon as you knew it existed you immediately loved it with all of your heart. Would do anything and give anything for it. And I feel so alone like no one understands what i'm going through. It feels like I just lost someone I was close with, like I knew them my entire life. It feels devastating. If you want to talk I'm here. I think this board helps even if you just lurk because I think everyone feels pretty much the same way.
Sorry for your loss as well.
I started getting cramps and back pain and had no morning sickness for the first time in weeks, and I just knew something was wrong. I woke up the next day with spotting and went straight to ob/gyn. I was in his office when it happened.
We had lots of support after it happened. But now I feel like everyone expects me to get over it. I would love to just snap my fingers and have the pain go away but, I'm still hurting and I probably will for a long time.
I had a miscarriage at 9 weeks and no matter how early your loss its still painful. Theres a lot of awesome women here that are going through the same thing.
Be good to yourself and with time it will get a little easier.
I am so sorry for your loss. All of the women on this board are very supportive! We are all going through the same thing and it seems that most of the emotions are pretty similar for all of us. I hope that you find help on this board. Lots of thoughts and prayers!
I'm sorry for you loss and that you find yourself here but I think you'll find lots of support and understanding from these ladies who have gone through/are going through what you are dealing with.
I agree, it's hard for some people to realize what a loss a miscarriage is. The worst thing people tell me is "you'll try again" but what they don't understand is I don't want to HAVE to try again. I wanted that baby.
Again, I'm so sorry you're here but don't hesitate to reach out. ((hugs))
Happily married to my Airman since 2004.

I m/c at nearly the exact point as you (I was 11 weeks).
Regardless of how early it is, you start making plans for that child the minute you get a positive pregnancy test. I'm sorry you have to go through this.
